You have taught my heart to sing...!!!


There's a corner in my heart
That will always be there for you.
It's filled with joyous love
That to the world I am dying to show.
How you managed to sneak in there
I have absolutely no clue.

I want to make you smile,
That sweet all gripping grin.
It makes my world so much brighter
And tempts me to indulge in few sins.

I want to make you laugh
A laughter that is so wonderful to hear.
I want to make you happy
As happy as anyone can be.
Do everyday things for you forever.
Simple things done passionately.

I wanna sing for you.
I wanna dance with you.
I wanna paint your name across the sky.
Wanna tell the world how I feel-
Cos I can't hide my love
However hard I try.

You have taught my heart to sing.
Given my eyes a childlike gleam.
Oh! This feels so groovy
That to me it still feels like a dream.
And if it's a dream-
Dear! don't wake me up.
For I am happy to be in this slumber
Forever and ever and ever...

Me and My Memories

You left me, but you cannot leave my heart.
I hold you there, with or without your will.
No matter where you go, you will be part
Of me, my dearest friend and lover still.
I'll tell you of the pain I feel, and all
The things you've done that hurts and make me bleed.
And then your icy words you will recall,
And comfort me, and give me what I need.
This I can do alone, and yet the real
You lives and lies far beyond my touch.
But since my true intention is to steal
The you I loved, the real you isn't much.
Don't worry--I'll treat you tenderly:
The lovely you, you left behind with me.

Factors regarding admissions to US universities

PS: Please note that this my opinion from my experience. All the things I have said are NOT verified by anyone. So ask other people too. But the below mentioned things will cover most of the aspects regarding factors for admission.

GRE subject test is “recommended” by some US universities. Its not compulsory. It varies from uni to uni and most people who have done their undergraduation in CS/IT don’t need to give it.

Plenty of factors are considered apart from your GRE and TOEFL scores.

TOEFL is just used to measure your English proficiency. As far as i know, TOEFL score does NOT influence your admit decision as such. Passing it is just a requirement.

In fact GRE score is mostly used as a “filter” as such. That is if you have more than certain GRE score (lets say 1250 for a particular university) you will qualify for more comprehensive review. Then afterwards it’ll come as a factor in admission if you and some other competing student have matching performance in all other criteria.

The other factors are (in no particular order):
- Your Statement of Purpose (SOP).
- Your Recommendation Letters.
- Your college academic performance.
- The reputation of college you have applied FROM.
- The number of seats available in the course you are applying to.
- The reputation of the university you are applying TO. (Eg. Stanford has more chance of rejecting you than USC for the same course)
- The course you are applying to. (Eg. Management and Technology courses are comparatively easier than the core subject course like Computer Science.)
- The research work/ project work you’ve done.
- Work experience (if any).
- The specialization/research area you mention in your SOP while applying.
- Other small factors like your grammar in SOP, your tone, your resume.

Note here that all the above factors may or may not be considered by a particular university. You have to assume all of them do act as a factor and do your best in all of them. The fact is that the admission decision process is very subjective and inherently opaque to the applicants. All you can do is do the best you can and hope for the best.

Applying to US universities requires lot of work and you have to start preparing from right now for all the above mentioned things.

A beautiful message from George Carlin...

George Carlin
Hey hi friends....I would like to share a article I just came across a few days back ...Its wonderfully written by the comedian of 1980's named George Carlin....

It goes as below:

The paradox of our time in history is that we have taller buildings but shorter
tempers, wider Freeways , but narrower viewpoints.. We spend more, but have less,
we buy more, but enjoy less. We have bigger houses and smaller families, more
conveniences, but less time. We have more degrees but less sense, more knowledge,
but less judgment, more experts, yet more problems, more medicine, but less
wellness.

We drink too much, smoke too much, spend too recklessly, laugh too little, drive too
fast, get too angry, stay up too late, get up too tired, read too little, watch TV too much, and pray too seldom.

We have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values. We talk too much, love
too seldom, and hate too often.

We've learned how to make a living, but not a life. We've added years to life not life to years. We've been all the way to the moon and back, but have trouble crossing the street to meet a new neighbor. We conquered outer space but not inner space. We've done larger things, but not better things.

We've cleaned up the air, but polluted the soul. We've conquered the atom, but not
our prejudice. We write more, but learn less. We plan more, but accomplish less.
We've learned to rush, but not to wait. We build more computers to hold more
information, to produce more copies than ever, but we communicate less and less.

These are the times of fast foods and slow digestion, big men and small character,
steep profits and shallow relationships. These are the days of two incomes but more
divorce, fancier houses, but broken homes. These are days of quick trips, disposable
diapers, throwaway morality, one night stands, overweight bodies, and pills that do
everything from cheer, to quiet, to kill. It is a time when there is much in the
showroom window and nothing in the stockroom. A time when technology can bring
this letter to you, and a time when you can choose either to share this insight, or to just hit delete...

Remember, spend some time with your loved ones, because they are not going to be
around forever.

Remember, say a kind word to someone who looks up to you in awe, because that
little person soon will grow up and leave your side.

Remember, to give a warm hug to the one next to you, because that is the only
treasure you can give with your heart and it doesn't cost a cent.

Remember, to say, 'I love you' to your partner and your loved ones, but most of all
mean it. An embrace will mend hurt when it comes from deep inside of you.

Remember to hold hands and cherish the moment for someday that person will not
be there again.

Give time to love, give time to speak! And give time to share the precious thoughts in your mind.

AND ALWAYS REMEMBER:
Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take
our breath away.

Love..... a beautiful feeling...!!

Sorry friends its gotten a li'l busy these days...anyways this post regarding a normal feeling that everyone of us experiences in their so called relationship and a semblance LOVE....Its our normal tendency and I too was a victim of the same and so I am sharing my experience with you all...

It goes as below.....

I still feel that it happened just a few days back. I really want to hold this beautiful moment for the rest of my life. Meeting you .And after that the flow of conversation, and gradually started feeling something for you. I still can’t figure out what do I feel for you. Sort of an attachment. An intimacy of thoughts and dreams. Teasing each other. Pampering each other. Keep on talking for hours and hours. Discussions we had, few conclusions. Dreaming together for future. Sometimes I just keep on talking and you listen and sometimes you keep on talking and I listen. Sometimes so useless blabbering. Loud laughter. Sharing the whole day activities. Abusing others they can be your colleagues or can be my friends. Laughing on some stupid PJs. Trying not to be in touch to realize what kind of bond we have. This all activities we do but the fact is we have met just for once and we just talk on phone since then! You are far away from me in terms of distance but quite near to me in terms of feelings. Now I can easily predict your mindset and may be you also predict mine. I think the way we understand each other no one else can understand us. That’s why I feel a great connection with you.
What will you call it?
I’ll call it
True feelings.
Pure feelings.
Innocent feelings.
And people call it “LOVE”!
Am I falling in love with you or am already in love with you?
But the biggest tragedy is that we both know that we can’t have any conclusion of this relation. We can just ended up our feelings by giving it a name of friendship. But really at least am happy that we both are not hurting each other. And will be there for each other for the rest of our life to support each other, to guide each other. Really it’s a true love.Because love does not mean to get it means to give. Love does not have just one conclusion of marriage.
Love means something above of all the things. Love is GOD. Love is sacrifice. Love is never lasting feeling. Love is a gift. Love is the purest form of feelings.
So if you are in love never hesitate to convey to the right person.
You are not doing anything wrong. You are just telling the person that how important he/she is in this world, how precious he/she is for you.
Nothing is wrong in falling in love. But never expect anything from love.
Just give love and be lovable.
Love your parents, love your siblings, love your friends, and love every one.
Then the world around you will become heaven.!!!!

Solitude and You...!!!

Solitude and You...!!!

This post is regarding my loneliness and the solitude within me and though being a Solitairy reaper I do experience a force within me and around me that drives me through the world and all obstacles till now.

The description below is merely a dream that I had experienced few days back.

This is how the dream goes.....

It was quite beautiful evening. Sun was setting down after a lot of hard work. Sun was happy and jubiliant because he was now done with his work and now it was time for him to take some rest. The sun was throwing beautiful and charming colorful rays out of it. Colorful shades were making the sea horizon more beautiful. With such an intense beauty of the nature and the surrounding weather I was enjoying to the core with my solitude and nature. Adding to the beauty of the nature was the beach and the surrounding calm sea with the little rumbling waves of sky blue water gently touching my feet giving me a strong sensation.

Beach is always too full of visitors and love birds. But this beach was different.The evening was different for me. I was walking alone on the beach. Waves were quite soothing and soft. Everything surrounding me was different that evening. And I just kept walking and walking watching the endless sea and then I saw the beautiful sun sinking near the horizon of the ocean. I Wanted to go there and hold the sinking sun but slowly and slowly darkness had started giving its presence.Sky had started filling with small lanterns (Stars) and moon set there smiling at me.

I sat there staring at the sky and realized that something was missing my life and I had a feeling that I was waiting for someone. And got stuck!! I am here to see whom? I went blank for sometime and again got lost in thoughts. Suddenly,I had a feeling that she was holding my hand. I felt complete...

I thought 'how was my day today’? "Stressed, really tired of all paper works for project, hardcore coding, false smiles, false politeness” literally tired of being a rigid human being... Something was actually missing in my life. I had everything in life "education, family, friends, power", then what still made me feel incomplete was the question lingering in my mind? This question kept hovering for a long time?

I don't know how I ended up driving to beach. Was someone about to come? I need someone to share my joys which are just lost from my life and my sorrows which are overflowing because of emotions of having seclusion and solitude in my life. Suddenly I felt giddy and was about to faint but I found someone holding me, supporting me. I turned around and I found you. Yes, It was you. Suddenly you came to my life and changed it. You took me in your arms and I felt that I got everything in my life. You were the one I was waiting for.

And then the alarm rang, and I had to leave "You".......

Amazing Weekend

Best Buddies and an Amazing Weekend...!!!!

Hey hi Friends, I am Rushi Mehta and I am Presently pursuing my Engineering degree in Information Technology from Nirma University,Ahmedabad.Currently, I am on my project training period at Prometheus Solutions Pvt Ltd, Mumbai. you can check out my personal and other details from my website and the link is also available in my blogger profile.


This is the first time I am writing a blog... so there are chances my language may appear out to be a little bit rough and at some point gramatically incorrect so please condone such mistakes....henceforth I shall try to improve upon that too. The manner in which I have written this post is in a bit kiddish way....

Anyways I don't know where to start with...Actually these days I am a bit overloaded with work, having received a deadline of finishing the HR Module, Marketing and Project Management Module by 25th of March in fully operating condition..I am a bit frustrated and tensed right now as usual with having to finish the HR module by the end of this month.But I have always been very lucky in case I am too frustrated or befuddled in life, I always have my besty on my side. Yea I would like to name my two best friends 'Varun Jain' and 'Nitin Garg' and yea my funny younger brother 'Shravan' and I can't even forget the main caricatured guy 'Devesh' .....both are my roomies here...

Varun, My besty is here in Mumbai for a short vacation at my place and I guess almost after a 4-5 months I have had a chance to remove all the frustration and the solitude that I had within me because of the work load and other tensions. The last 5 days that I have spent with Ishan (my school friend) and Varun has totally charged me up and has once again made my optimism alive. Usually I spend my daytime in office... half sleepy and half the time I am really very active working sincerely....I even spend sometime on facebooking and chatting....

The day since Varun has arrived we have been partying hard till late night freaking around and visiting new places for dinner and fun.At the end when we are really tired say by 2 or 3 in the morning, we go to my favourite spot at Juhu Power House for a glass of tea/coffee...So you can imagine the amount of hours we have been sleeping since last 5 days as I have my office the next day in the morning at 9. These days as Varun is here, I Leave from the office,I reach home and then wear the usual casual clothes leaving aside my formal clothes which gives an impression of a sincere guy...and then we go out and hook up with our other school friends here in mumbai.


This Saturday had fun, we all went to some place (Copy of Macdonalds) at Bandra I don't remember exactly for havin burger and then from there we went to a place for desserts....We returned home late night at 4 and then the next day for trekking at kalsubai peaks(highest peak of Maharashtra)...It was a terrific and amazing experience....After having done with the fantastic adventure, we once again decided to go to town side, so we got a table booked at Koyla's(in the colaba region)....
We had dinner and sheesha's there......and yea by serendipity I met 8th std friend James over there, almost after 9 years. Yea by the way I forgot to mention that we (Me and Ishan) took membership at Dhuan's... and we missed our complementary foot massage on sunday as we couldnt go der..I regret that (hope you can understand ..hehe..!!) but not much as we too had fun.....That was the end of an amazing and awesome weekend I have spent in my life...

The next day usual routine office in the morning and there it was an end to the fantabulous and a unforgettable weekend....!!!!!!

Thanks a lot Varun for being there for me at the right time and bolstering me...
