What do I mean by love?
In a step to discover myself, I was thinking about love and all at odd hours ;-)
Is it a desire for support? Well... not for me.
Why do we, rather I, crave for someone to be there? Well, I'm not 'craving for'
Love, or the lack of it, can drive people crazy. Did the same happen with me? Well, no. Whatever happened was normal, weren't they? (And does it really matter much whether they were normal or not?)
Love... what do I mean by 'love'? Is it a feeling that I happen to experience whenever I make a female friend? :P Of course not :D. Is it the urge of caring for someone? Well, I care for many. But, love for me does mean caring for a person, even in smallest matters.
Love for me is thinking about that someone and smiling. It's in taking her as a source of inspiration. It's in making love with her. It's in watching her smiling. It's in taking utmost care not to make her feel sad.
It's in discovering her. It's in discovering myself.

A poem I wrote...
I am posting a poem which I wrote some 10 months back.
I miss you.
I miss you, in it's true sense I miss you
I remember your words on chat "Can I kiss you?"
I wish you also tell me "I miss you"
I wish you sit silently beside me
I wish you say someday "Kiss me"
I miss those moments when we were together
I miss those talks when we were idiots together
I miss your stopping me because you felt shy
I want to be stupid when you are around me
I want, yet, you to believe that it's me
I, on a beautiful day, could tell you I love you
I miss those moments when I heard the same from you
Now, you are far but your memories are with me
They are what make me feel you are still with me
In photo or in dreams, whenever I see you
I get an image of a lovely and beautiful you
Your memories fill my days and nights with joy
Just like a kid has found again his favourite toy
My love-story is small but very beautiful, it's true
Because in it, there is none other than you.
I miss you.

Video : Modi interviewed by Karan Thapar
I came across this video while surfing. This is an interview of the Gujarat CM Narendra Modi by the famous interviewer Karan Thapar. The interview makes me recall a similar interview from the Hindi movie 'Nayak'. Anyway, enjoy it...

CET : GDPI scores out
The GDPI scores of CET are just out.
My GD score is 15/17 and PI score is 14/17 (which means an improvement of 81.25% over last years total GDPI score :D )
Now, I have to wait for a month before final merit list is out.
JB or not JB?

May MAT :|
May-MAT results out : 99.98 again.
VA : 99.81
QA : 99.58
DI : 99.7
CR : 99.88
Not getting 99.9 + in any section cost me that 0.01 percentile, I guess.
Anyway, will have to wait till the CET GDPI scores are out.

My CET GDPI Experience
(Click here to find mine and others' CET GDPI exeriences on Pagalguy)
Here is my experience:
Center: Commerce Faculty, Shivaji University, Kolhapur
GD:
The panel told us to select one topic.
GD Topic : (1) *I don't remember * (2) Quota in private sector
There were 12 people scheduled to come in my group but only 5 turned up . After the panel said that these two are the topics, everybody started saying that we want to discuss the second topic without discussing among ourselves .
The panel instructed that first we need to speak on the topic for a minute and then we should start the discussion and then one of us should give a conclusion.
After that the GD started and I was almost the only person speaking . But I did stop and give others chance whenever others tried to speak, but unfortunately only two ladies speak and that too only 3-4 lines. I continued to speak for almost next 4-5 mins. Then I stopped, because I thought I had spoken enough. But, even after that the others didn't speak at all.
But then there prevailed silence . And the panel intervened and said that we need to maintain continuity. There shouldn't be gap in between .
I again started speaking but nobody except me spoke after that at all (except that 2 of them could speak a single sentence each which they could when I gave them a chance when they tried to speak when I was speaking). After 7-8 minutes, I stopped and the GD ended. (I could have continued but I thought it would be bad if I continue speaking as I had already spoken enough for about 5-6 minutes ). I stopped everytime anybody tried to speak. But unfortunately that didn't happen quite often. Except one girl, the remaining three people were not very comfortable with English.
After that, the panel told us to summerise. I told others if any of others want to conclude (as I had already got enough of air-time ) but nobody came forward. And I also concluded the topic. In all, I talked for around 6 mins out of 8 mins
PI:
There were two panelist in PI: P1 ~ 50, P2 ~ 60
Me: Good afternoon, Sirs.
P1&P2: Good afternoon. Please sit.
Me: Thank you, sir.
P1: So, tell me about yourself.
Me: *told*
P1: So, you want to start a business?
Me: Yes sir, it is my long-term goal.
Then both of them asked me about how exactly I would start it, where will I get finance from and after how many years, etc. They kinda' grilled me here . But, I was prepared for all this
P1: That's good that you are determined and all that, but you mentioned that taking a lot of time in taking important decisions is your weakness? What exactly you mean?
Me: *told*
P1: Any incident which made you feel so?
Me: *told*
P1: Any other incidents?
Me: *told*
P2: So, why do you think it's your weakness? How does it affect you?
Me: It wastes my time and occupies my mind for time-being and blah and blah and blah
P1: So, you can't be a good manager as you can't take decision quickly, right?
Me: No, sir. I have been working on it and have succeeded to a certain extent.
P1: What are you doing to improve over it?
Me: *told*
P1: How did you implement it when you had to make decisions quickly?
Me: *told*
P1: (looking at the answer-sheet) So, you've got 99.98 in MAT. What is MAT?
Me: Sir, it's Management Aptituted Test just like CET conducted by AIMA. And blah, blah...
P1: So, this is your percentile or percentage or score? (I'd forgot to write the word 'percentile')
Me: It's percentile, sir. And my score is 800/800
P2: Why is this exam taken? Why did you take this exam?
Me: Sir, this is a national level entrance exam whose score can be submitted to many colleges for admission into management courses. As an OMS candidate, I can submit this score to DTE and the higher of MAT and CET score will be considered for admission. This year the equivalent score would be 143 (courtesy: PG )
P1: You have good percentage in 10th and 12th. Why not the same in college?
Me: *told* (I was prepared for this question)
P1: You are BCA. Why not MCA?
Me: MCA is more of repetition of BCA and blah, blah...
P2: Who told you so?
Me: I have a couple of friends in MCA in DDU, Nadiad. They told me. Even I have checked the syllabus and found the same.
P1: But why MBA?
Me: *told*
P1: So you are working? Where are you working and what's your designation?
Me: *told*
P1: So, you write diary? You write in English or Gujarati?
Me: I have been writing diary for last 4 years. I have been writing it in English. For the rist 2-3 months when I started, I used to write in Gujarati
P2: Even I am also Gujarati. I am from Baroda.
Me: Okay
P2: I am impressed with your determination. Though you still have a chance to improve in your speech, your English is quite good. I am impressed with your English.
Me: Thank you, sir. I have worked hard on it.
P2: I have not seen many Gujarati students from vernacular background with as good English as yours. What have you done to improve over it?
Me: *told*
P1: When did you realize that you need to work on your English?
Me: In first semester of my college when I saw that some of my class-mates used to talk in English and I couldn't. In the starting of my first year, I realized it and started working on it.
P1: So, it's over. Thank you. You may leave.
Me: Thank you sir.
P2: (when I was just about to leave the chair) Keep your this spirit forever.
Me: Surely. Thank you sir!
So, in all, GD and PI were the best ever I had in my life. I doubt whether my stopping speaking after 7-8 mins of GD was good or not. I knew that if I would stop, the GD will stop. But, I thought it's better to stop the GD in stead of continue speaking alone as nobody else was speaking at that time.
@all... Was it a good move? Or should I have continued the GD for 4-5 mins more?

May-MAT (perhaps last MBA entrance exam for me) is over
MAT was today. My sixth attempt :D.
I think I can safely expect 99.9+ in at least a couple of sections. And if I don't get very less percentiles in Verbal section, 99.99 is not impossible, I guess.
Dekhte hai kya hota hai...
