Mindfreaked!

Here is Shubham Gangopadhyay with another of his unique contributions. This time, it's about the thoughts that "happen" to the brain and how to deal with them. Another interesting read, this one.

Cryptomnesia

Cryptomnesia, a memory bias, is a true bane for authors in particular; but basically for anyone who has to earn his/her daily bread by thinking up original ideas.

Change

 

 Change is fundamental. You should try it some time.

Aquiline

Many of you may be wondering about the title. Aquiline, according to the all-knowing-book ( also known as the dictionary ), is defined as: of, relating to, or having the characteristics of an eagle.

I don't know why this particular topic came into my head, but since it has arrived, I can't let it go, can I? Aren't we all fascinated by that solitary spot in the sky, gliding through the air and almost slicing the atmosphere into countless layers?


Well, I am. And, with it, the raw power that it represents. You don't want to be the thing that is going to be swooped down on and carried away in a split second by the machine-like claws, believe me. You'd rather get hit by a car and get it over with.


Also, I'm amazed by the precision this bird has. It'll pin point a location and reach within centimeters of the required location in a flash. It seems like it has a GPS tracking service installed in itself.


The characteristic that I'm most impressed by is the way it keeps to the highest of the skies and keeps on gliding for huge distances without stopping; as if it has been sent here to keep a watch over all of us. The lonely paratrooper who observes everything going on down there, all the while doing a pretty fine job of appearing the handsome bird it is.


I salute the solitary supervisor; do you?

Re: Touching Twenty

Here's Shubham Gangopadhyay's take on "Touching Twenty". Quite an interesting read, this one.

Touching Twenty

With many of us being at the foothills of Mount Twenty, we look back on our innocent childhood and our not-so-innocent teens. The teenage years are about to end and we are going to be called ( ughhh.... ) over-the-hill.

Being a Bong.......

 

Yes, being a Bengali ( Bangali ) in this oh-so-wonderful world isn't such a difficult thing to do. Staying a Bengali, though, takes a little more effort. ( Readers thinking this to be regionalistic can suck their thumbs and write their own blogs. )

Falsification

 

This piece is a contribution from Shubham Gangopadhyay ( Oh boy, I hope I got the name right!) and let's just say that quite a few adjectives you use to describe yourself will be gunned down. So,here goes.

Opinions Galore

 

Yes. This post is about the huge number of opinions this world generates everyday, which are chiefly responsible for the heated debates ( used in the lightest sense ) we see around us.
