when someone shouts O Rambling Wreck<br />
I look around to see a man <br />
waving at me with his big strong hand<br />
<br />
You see I had been to Georgia Tech too<br />
he says with a sense of pride in his eyes.<br />
It's a tough school he says to go you see<br />
with a little tear and pride in his eyes<br />
<br />
That sense of pride then floods through my veins<br />
as passers by give us a fleeting glance.<br />
To two talking strangers, smiling at each other<br />
and sharing their experience of their great alma mater.<br />
<br />
It felt good to meet another fan of Tech<br />
From the year of 1979.<br />
That sense of belonging we shared together<br />
of both the sweet and the trying times<br />
<br />
And this is not the very first time<br />
that some Georgia Tech ranger has called out to me<br />
Seeing my very Georgia Tech jersey<br />
is how from they crowd they have recognized me.<br />
<br />
This love for our fellows let's all carry on<br />
Keep those GTech fires burning on<br />
In your hearts and your minds lets love each other<br />
Lets be bonded like no other.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

I met a Georgia Tech alumnus today while walking through the streets of San Francisco when returning back from work. The few moments that followed, the conversation we had and the change of emotions that the man went through inspired me to write this after a gap of nearly 9 months. Something that touched me and reminded me of what a great school I belong to. A school that students are proud of, even after 32 years for this guy. Hey left an anonymous memory which will remain with me always through this short poem. The guy had to drop out of school after his Junior year but still the pride showed and was strong.</div>Ankur Patankarhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15896054909148057182noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3650242326560322892.post-27973171000430583742010-12-30T23:17:00.000+05:302010-12-30T23:17:26.156+05:30Some thoughts again..<div style="text-align: center;">We smile at whom we like</div><div style="text-align: center;">We cry for whom we care</div><div style="text-align: center;">We laugh with whom we enjoy<br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">The day I know, when this place will change.</div><div style="text-align: center;">The day when many of my friends, will graduate.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">It's so mixed with feelings, of joy and tear.</div><div style="text-align: center;">Coz I know somewhere, that you will soon not be so near.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

my life I said,<br />don't bring it down on me.<br />The cracking earth just said,<br />I am sorry but it's the fate of thee.<br /><br />With tears in my mind,<br />and solitude on me.<br />I decided to use my strength now,<br />to build my world as it had been.<br /><br />But things are different now,<br />it may never be the same.<br />Coz I have lost something so very dear,<br />that treasure which can none replace.<br /><br />But life so has to move ahead,<br />you can't just cling on to the past.<br />It will come back again to you,<br />if it was truly meant to last.<br /><br />Some day if the earth realized,<br />how vain it had then been.<br />It may just bring back those happy days,<br />like they were forever meant to be.<br /><br />I will wait till then,<br />with some hope alive.<br />Just hoping that the earth realize,<br />before those sweet memories have long gone by.<br /><br />~~~ Composed on 16th December 2009, 7:00 am ~~~<br /></div>Ankur

Dreams<div style="text-align: center;"> Just today I saw you, walk into my dreams.<br />Dreams that had so long back, deserted my sleep.<br /><br />My dreams are the reflection, of things that I long for.<br />That part of life I wanted, which was so near but so far.<br /><br />I wake up to reality, to realize it's just a dream.<br />But this is what I want now, to persist beyond that sleep.<br /><br />The hope that I can be with you, again if I close my eyes.<br />Makes me want those moments, when sleep just cometh by.<br /><br />I want those lovely moments, which now just lie in my dreams.<br />To be there in reality, by my side till eternity.<br /><br />The knowledge that quite so often, my dreams have turned to be real.<br />Feels like the light which people say, is the brighter end of the tunnel.<br /><br />~~~~ Composed on 29th November 2009 while still in bed ~~~~<br /></div>Ankur

to me.<br /><br />You are for me like that rose bud,<br />which is eager, to open to the day.<br />Coz she wants to spread her sweetest scents<br />and fill this small world with her a soothing fragrance.<br /><br />He would fall in love,<br />who'd see you once, just once who'd get a glance of you.<br />There are many here, who are mad about you.<br />You are like that, anyone would fall for you.<br /><br />Those who know you, know also this.<br />You are so beautiful, but so very different.<br />You throw no tantrums and are so very simple.<br />You are clean at heart, never wish wrong of others,<br />there's just love there for everyone.<br /><br />The thing about you, which I have fell for.<br />Is the very frankness that you have in you.<br />Your thoughts and words are so in sync,<br />That is what I so love in you.<br /><br />I know you are so,<br />for you have your own reasons.<br />Coz you want others to know,<br />what you really like and hate in people.<br /><br />I feel this now, that you are the one.<br />Whom I would love to love my entire life.<br />Coz you are so different, so very unique.<br />for me, just for me.<br

Memorable Trip to Kaziranga<div>The beauty of Kaziranga and it's rhinoes....</div><div><br />
</div><div>This was one of the best experiences i have had till todayy...</div><div>I can still remember the trip to ASSAM... the land of real beauty...</div><div>The beauty is not just in the limited to the jungles and the wildlife but also it's people...</div><div><br />
</div><div>Travelling through the endless hills and woods and then some vast stretches of grassland we reached Kaziranga - Home to the indian rhinoes...</div><div>It was late in the evening, a light fog and mist covered the roads... Even through the mist we could see things pretty clearly.... The vast greens of the Kaziranga reserve and the cooollll air made us all feel fresh even after the long journey....</div><div><br />
</div><div>As night fell and the cold descended, we were treated to some hot rotis and tasty curry... All this, sitting by the calm stream which flowed through out hotel lawn...</div><div>The dim lights gave the feeling of a true village, in the midst of the wilderness...</div><div><br />
</div><div>Sitting with our hotel manager we decided that we would take the early morning Elephant Safari which would start at 6:00 in the morning. and so we had to leave the hotel at 5:30. It was soo cold and dark outside, with only the chirp of crickets and some birds breaking the monotonous sound of our jeep's engine.</div><div><br />
</div><div>Finally we reached the starting point of the safari where we mounted the jumbos...</div><div>Fortunately we got the leader elephant. So we were right ahead of the lot... The 1st to spot any movement.</div><div>Though we were on elephant back, the grass (rightly called the Elephant Grass) was reaching our chests. The elephant was crushing it mercilessly under it's feet and sometimes eating it when making the way.</div><div><br />
</div><div>Suddenly,,,, with a jolt the elephant came to a stand still.... Rocking us on our seats...</div><div><br />
</div><div>Then came the thrilling moment,,, Suddenly two Rhinos charged out of the tall grass, their calf in tow. The sudden surprise made even the mighty elephant stop in it's tracks, you must have guessed what would we have felt like....</div><div>But it was a greatt experience - Early morning, faint fog drifting through the air, cool tall grass around us and those beautiful rhinos in front... Suddenly cameras clicked and the animals rushed into the swampy grass nearby...</div><div><br />
</div><div>Being on the lead elephant was thrilling and we could enjoyy these surprises more than the others. The mahout then started telling stories of how they had seen rhinoes, deer, an occasional tiger spotting. His colourful stories made us yearn for more and made us even more alert.</div><div>Throughout the entire ride, we spooted some more rhinoes. But none of the other experiences were as thrilling as the first one...</div>Ankur Patankarhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15896054909148057182noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3650242326560322892.post-37225593057457649672008-10-07T23:43:00.010+05:302008-10-13T23:12:56.083+05:30My view of Rock On<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjrB0bc__soZDGAXSVbk3w0_vrPzTUjueoB6f_RDv-Ju8YDxmfoJEKB-Eqyz2Jc9IoCvB1l5Gx2zVNfquqyxXadxQ1DguNeHA-a1iX6mwmVNyVAV5yT1yZGHtsV63NId1HC9kMt9pxDIdw/s1600-h/normal_Rock+On+First+look.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjrB0bc__soZDGAXSVbk3w0_vrPzTUjueoB6f_RDv-Ju8YDxmfoJEKB-Eqyz2Jc9IoCvB1l5Gx2zVNfquqyxXadxQ1DguNeHA-a1iX6mwmVNyVAV5yT1yZGHtsV63NId1HC9kMt9pxDIdw/s320/normal_Rock+On+First+look.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5254482609490470978" border="0" /></a><br /><span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(153, 0, 0);font-family:webdings;font-size:180%;"><span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Rock On :</span></span></span><br /><br />Must say, a really Nice movie to watch.....<br />A story of four friends, with a common dream.......<br />A ROCK Band of their own, that big live performance..... The day of Glory........<br /><br />Having heard the tracks and the sound of the movie, i had expected a fun movie . A story of how the band emerges a winner, their struggle and all. But it had a different twist in store.<br /><br />It was a story of how ego clashes and sometimes a compromise can hurt friendship and success, and shatter someone's dreams. There are times when a compromise can get you the fame and set the stage for future success. It 's for you to decide whether to take the chance or leave it. And here Joseph chose not to, after all, it was a matter of self respect.<br /><br />But then that spur of the moment can change lives and push you apart and take away success.<br />But then to reunite, you need courage and forgiveness by your side. And that's what they did.<br /><br />The stage was set with the competetion once again and this time success was at their feet, just to grab. But then a choice can change things - your dream or your family. Joseph at the threshold, family on one side and his dream on the other.<br />A dying friend, and his wife's happiness tearing him apart.....<br /><br />But then Joseph made the choice and THEY PERFORMED.... They WON....<br />The spirit of friendship and the dream they shared lived on....<br /><br />A really nice movie, which is more about relationships and people and the choices they make. A bit emotional, but then out of sorrows comes Great VICTORIES.....<br /><br />A movie with a message.. "Dreams are important and they give a meaning to life"....<br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(153, 255, 153);">"</span><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(153, 255, 153); font-style: italic;font-family:georgia;">LIVE YOUR DREAM....
