Sister Week

This post comes about because my sister put up a status on facebook stating that if your sister makes life interesting and fun copy this so I decided to go one up and write something about my sisters considering the fact that I have three of them along with numerous cousins and they definitely do make life interesting. Only Sisters could come up with a concept of a Sister week rather than a sister day or no sister day at all.

Well if God were to make sisters this is what he would say. “Ok Kronos and Quartet, first and foremost make them a little dumb. Oh and they should be phobic to maths. Now do this next step extremely carefully. Make them unable to understand technology of any kind, but they should use facebook in copious amounts each day though. In fact make them addicted to facebook.(See God knows everything that is about to happen so he knows that facebook is bound to exist sometime). Oh yes and they should also have a irrevocable belief in my existence which their brothers dispute. Make them fans of a really dumb series called Twilight. Aah and make them religious despite the fact that religion will abuse them more than anything else in their life.”

You know sisters have this uncanny ability to believe that they drive really well. I guess they get this belief from the fact that if there is a single ditch on an otherwise empty and perfectly fine road, they will drive straight into it while everyone else will swerve around it.

Sisters also have an extremely small appetite. They eat a bit and go, I am full and stuffed. For some reason McDonalds is their favorite place to eat. Sisters also like to feed their brothers with food that they make and this is something that I greatly appreciate.

Sisters also like to go temples or any religious place. They might be cool otherwise, extremely so unless its tuesday and time to go to a Mandir.  They might follow the latest trends in everything but this is something they cannot avoid. Also they might laugh at all the elders for watching soaps but they will watch the same nonetheless with religious zeal.

Another interesting fact is the decorative instinct that Sisters seem to have. Most boys have copies written with a single colored pen in bad hand writing but sisters really care about this. Their copies are neat and clean and have at least 5 different colors with which they are written. They may copy the homework but they will still get more marks than the one they copied from(I am assuming that they get the notebook from a guy because sisters seldom share homework with other sisters). They also allow teachers to affect them on an emotional level and take everything said very seriously. Sisters also treat holiday homework and assignments of the arty kind with a fanaticism bordering on craziness.

“I can’t open facebook”

Rule 34 by Charles Stross : You will never look at your email the same way again

This is one of the great reads of the year(with a terrible cover though). Charles Stross writes a near future police procedural in this one. Its a future where 3d printers are a reality and plans for printing almost anything are available online(This includes all sorts of weapons of course). This of course leads to a whole lot of materials being smuggled. Its a future where you have to bid to get a bus to go your way. The police instant messages and everything has gone digital. The rise of the internet has lead to an increase of unimaginable crimes. Our lead detective Liz works in the Rule 34 squad. A series of apparently connected murders take place. Only no one can figure out the perpetrator and the motive behind the crimes. Stross moves from the grissly murders to explanations of AI, singularity and spam with ease managing to keep you on the edge of your seat. Its a complex novel that virtually demands a reread. It is also written in a weird second person style that jar...

Places to eat in Kanpur

Our real exploration of Kanpur began in our 5th year when we had our stipend to spend so hopefully this article will prove helpful to all the foodies out there. Surprisingly(and I really mean this) there are a number of terrific places to eat in Kanpur. Hopefully this article will prove helpful to many who are looking forward to spend their stipends. By far the best way to reach places to eat in Kanpur is to catch the bus that the institute provides. The bus runs everyday(except Sunday) at 8:00 pm and 9:00 pm. The bus returns at around 10:15 pm. Murgi(Our food and snacks Coordinator, every wing should have one) always takes the phone number of the conductor so that he can stay updated about where the bus is and so that the return is convenient. The bus service is really a life saver and unless you have a bike should be the first option. It is also better to roam during weekdays than weekends simply because there is lesser ruckus everywhere. Going to a restaurant on a weekend is an ab...
