Nobel peace prize and bombing beyond the globe

✪ 1 comment
Two different news hits national and international media this weekend first one was the US President Obama winning the Nobel Peace Prize and the second one was the NASA scientist bombing the surface of moon aiming for the possibility of water in its surface. The both news surprised the population around the globe. No matter how unrelated these incidents might seem to the public but the impact was same for me. Same in a sense they both lightened the flame of hope. The dream to transform the world of nuclear power and violence into the mutual society and the hope of finding the trace of life or water in moon surface are the greatest dream in the modern human society. And the news this weekend is something like a dream on its way to come true.

Once we go through the twitter, CNN, BBC, facebook or other media we can see thousands of comment posted every hours and the debate is ever growing on whether it is the right time to felicitate Obama with this prestigious award. Early stage of his tenure with so little been achieved, the decision might seem crazy too. There are people who say this award doesn’t mean for nice speeches, favoulous voice or the popularity of the person. This too seems okay. And I’m no one to judge these all. We all know Obama is a perfect human being. Apart from above queries I too have one. Can’t we felicitate a guy for bombing a hope around the globe? A hope for the limitless future.

Moon though was the object beyond the imagination, today human has achieved the unachievable. I never understood why people say sky is the limit but seeing all this I think my nerve is getting a little of it. It was human who defined the boundaries and limits and yet again it is the human who has undone the boundary kind of thing. Who says there is the limit? No there isn’t any. This is the hope the bombing beyond the globe gave to us. A hope for the limitless tomorrow. So I’m not gonna hesitate to say that the two news of the weekend were similar to me no matter how ridiculous I may sounds.

I was dogging in front of my PC trying to figure out the title for my next post in Youth Mind. A lot went through my stupid BBC’S I mean through my stupid Brain But Crazy Shit. Current affairs, problems, impressive stories, criticism and many more but nothing worked out. After an hour of thinking I decided why not write about nothing. Yes nothing, just write. No title, no pros and cons, no conclusions, no suggestions, no criticism, and more than that no more thinking. No more worries about the reactions from the readers because “this blog is something that may not meant to be read but is meant to be written” haha some crazy line I heard in Hollywood kind of thing.
These days facebook’s status is filled with the title of the Bollywood movie wake up this, wake up that. I don’t know this is the love for the movie or my friends trying to figure them out like Sid: cute, carefree, fun loving, kid like and nevertheless bindas. I don’t know why everybody wants to portrait them like a hero happy, charming, …… maybe its what we call a human nature. Last week I went for a Nepali movie hoping to write something in facebook’s status but my status remained silent about the 2 and half an hour of my stay in a theater. Maybe my human nature failed. I didn’t wish to be a hero. Today also I’m trying to figure out why?
A driver tuned FM which was playing John Denver ‘country road’ while I was returning home for the vacation. It made me excited; I started planning for my vacation and a long list was in front of me that night before I went to bed. And halfway through my vacation here is the list still in my table untouched not the single item erased. This is the result if you planned something. While writing this I played the same song and again all my memories gather around my childhood. The plan with similar long list of activities on every new session’s of school. After these many years I’m here still making plan, listing my desire. I don’t know when I will start to erase them from the list. I’m wondering will my list be done one day?



Change i don't want: THE NATIONAL FLAG

✪ No comment yet
Every time I start to write something for my blog I always find myself in dilemma strangled with many questions and unsolved mysteries. And yet again this was the same. The hot news this weekend about changing nepali national flag made me grieve seeing the intellectual status (I couldn’t decide a word to explain their pathetic thinking so I just mentioned it as intellectual status though it is a sarcastic) of the so called revolutionary and reformist. This news has not only hit the nepali media but also other international media like hindustan times(see the news in Hindustan Times ). Statue were broken in the name of change, colleges, parks, buildings and monuments were renamed in the name of change and this time someone is trying to change the national flag again in the name of change.

It doesn’t count whether some ruler during some regimes in history were a Suryavamsi or others were Chandravamsi. What counts now is our faith, our belief and our interpretation of the facts. And the fact for me is that this national flag is our history, our identity, our spirit and symbol of our national unity. It has been so since ages and it will be the same for the time to come. So far I know thousands of our fellow Nepali citizens also think the same. The prime reasons they have stated is that this flag signifies feudalism. I’m so confused coz I haven’t yet found any relation between so called feudalism and bitriangular national flag with sun and moon engraved on it. I just want to know from when did the sun and the moon started to signify feudalism, from when did the red color that have been the symbol of pride and sacrifice (not for normal citizen but for so called reformist and the communist also) have become the symbol of slavery and from when did the blue color also known as the color of peace and harmony started to provoke Hinduism and Buddhism only? Also people say flag is not inclusive. Why not try this, let’s cut a piece of a flag and distribute among the leaders of various parties, religion and ethnic groups. What more are doing in the name of inclusion and participation more than just dividing what we have.

Finally I have a question to ask for those who felt the urgency of changing the flag despite having thousands of problems still to be solved. Are we trying to destroy all we have in the name of change? But comrade, be careful this is not what corers of Nepali expected from you. What we were expecting was to destroy feudalism, international intervention, inequality and poverty in the shadow of your prominent leadership. Or are you just trying to hide your incapability by blaming some abstract and irrelevant thing like “THE NATIONAL FLAG”.

Exam shock and post exam syndrome

✪ 2 comments

I think most people have experienced post exam syndrome. I am not sure how to express this but I’m pretty much sure that by one or the other way it is same with many of us. Long and tiring days of exam with no time to think about a piece out of books, deeply involved with studies and giving damm about the world this is exams for me. Once it is over then I felt like “Where am I?” as if I’m back from comma. I felt like I’m in completely different world with so much to enjoy, so much to experience. And this exam sucks coz it didn’t let us to even smell the flavor of this beautiful world.

People say I hate exam and I too would like to say it sometime. It won’t surprise me as well but what surprise me is that almost all of us have done with dozens of exam in our life and every time we say we hate exams, we hate books and when it is over we again say wahhh the world is beautiful…oh god! Finally its over……shit man it is the same again…and many other desperate words that best describes our post exam emotion. The shock repeats every year, every semester, every trimester and sometime every month in the name of board exams, internal assessments, unit tests and surprise assessments as well. And for this I always compare exam with earthquake that ruins everything, shatter every beautiful piece out of this world. What you people thinks? Isn’t exam an earthquake of your foxy life? Like earthquake exam is also inevitable, we can’t stop it but what we can do is keep ourselves safe from this mishap. For this let’s do something. Why don’t we try to implement COD theory? By the way COD means “cooperate to dominate” i.e. let’s come together to dominate the bourgeois belief of exam.

Most of we think that we are the only one who is suffering from phobia and post phobia shock but smile guys because there is not a single person in this world who hasn’t gone through this unless he/she is Robinson Crusoe or Mr. Adam. But what I fear most is the post exam syndrome. I think the joy is uncontrollable and choices are unlimited so is there anyone who can pick a piece from a pool? I hope this happiness remain forever. But, what by the end of the semester? Ahhhh it will be back again.
