"Roadies 5.Someone"

Sunday moring :
I happily purchased a brand new SE handset. Nice feeling eh!. Went to ma fndz place to top this feeling by watchin de grand finale of Roadies 5.0 (the repeat i.e. after missing the saturday relay). Expecting Nihal to pull it off like most of u thought. We all know how it ended. Not a fulfilling feelin though seeing the turn of events by virtue of which the winner was chosen. Most of u felt that right?

Unlike most of u i was a bit happy though. It served as a proof to me of the very existance of "Reality Television". See reality shows, according to me, do have their set of scripts, plans through which they guide the respective participants. But this to me is a plan gone wild and a 'on the spot' soln was devised to compensate. Nobody expected both the team members to show such eagerness to perform tasks. End result- a tie which is wen they wer in a fix and decided to give sonel the power. it was a lame soln which made most of roadie fan's unhappy. But tat's REALITY right in your face.

Raw reality is never fun ma fnd. never. it's some spice of ur unreal imagination tat u'd like to see with ur so called reality. Roadies have the right mix of it. U think all these highway accidents (clip's of which none of us saw bein recorded), fights, bitching, linkup's, flirtin etc etc are unreal ??? I agree. But tat's part of wha draws u to watch it right?, this is the unreal ingredient i'm talkin abt. Many say the whole show is a big gig. A big drama. I disagree. Most of it does seem real to me. But u know wha? i really don care if it's real or not. The sole reason i watch Roadies is to be entertained and it aptly provides me with the same - yr after yr. The thrills, twists, stories , politics everythin sum up to my defination of entertainment :) ... besides it imparts some important lessons to youth like us.

Let's conclude by focusing on 5 most valuable lessons roadies imparted this season:

1.Friendship is precious: Nihal-ashu-sonel ousted 10 with this
2.Don blv gals: u kno who
3.u gain a lot by keepin ur mouth shut: Ashu & sonel
4.Strategies can back fire: Snehashish, Vikrant, Nihal
5.Stand up for what u blv: remember ashu refused to eat meat for money!!

Bon'gi

Hi ppl, here comes yet another blogger who didn't fill notebooks for nuts, exam sheets for grades and now documents for stupid codes.
The influences that have led me to bloggin are listed below:

1. A self proclaimed reader. I find solace in readin anythin right from witty "Common Man" space in TOI from Mr. R. K. Laxman to a mammoth thousand page novel from any Mr. Anonymous.

2. My fnd BOOZO who thinks i'm some kinda profound thinker and wud make a superb writer of somekind (yea even i think it's Bull!).

3. 'm in a S/w company which is payin me to do nothing and making me do stupid POC's (Proof Of Concept) which no one cares to even look at, and is supposedly judging me on it's basis ( i don't give a damn anymore).

4. Basically what made me actually START blogging is this pure boredom and frustration of having nothin to do all day and yet compulsorily log in 8Hrs at work which provides me with hi-speed( or so they claim) internet and ZERO work, with hi-flyin rumours that there's heavy workforce cut down in process every single month. My high point of the day from past couppla months bein my "lunch Time" i think blogging is a very good soln for me which wud suffice all my needs - the 8hrs at work every single day, meagre paycheck every month end, mental stability, exercise my brains etcetra etcetra....

P.S : Title "Bon'gi- (here "bo" as in bow -" n' " is pronounced like northese can't- "gi" as in give)
meaning- signifies completion of day's 1st transaction. ( north karnataka lingo)
