One of my serious posts- Goals

"Going to college and getting a degree are all goals. And I am working toward attaining my goals!!!!" This advertisement for a certain educational institution shocked me beyond words. Where I come from these aint goals.This is something I just did. I was amazed that people actually wanted to do something else.Heck what else can you do??

I guess this is the difference that exists between countries,continents, the east and the west, whatever which way we choose to put it. In India at age 3 a child is put in school and the child continues until he/she finishes it and then goes on to college to obtain a degree(atleast most middle,upper-middle class families work this way). After the degree he/she finds a job and settles down in life. This is life as I know it and this is how it exists. However here in Umerica going to school and finishing it is apparently a goal!!!!!!! Why is this such a glaring difference. Is there a total lack of regard for a formal education in this country. Is basic education not required to get ahead of life. A knowledge of the history of this country, basic math , chemical formula of water, sulfuric acid and organic chemistry are all this a total waste of time and money and brain space??????????????????!!!!!!!!!!!

Is it because the basic needs are provided to any person in this country that education doesnt seem that important. In India we had the mid day meal scheme, and also free and compulsory education for all children until the age of 14. Hasnt a place like this come up with schemes like this to keep children at school.I am not aware of any. Would incentives like that work here??

Peace on Earth

Valla- man!!!!

I just recently watched the movie Vallavan and it set out of a series of thots(as usual--- sometimes I wonder why most of my posts start like this)
Anyways comin back to the post..Yeah Vallavan.. Wat the hell was going on in Silambarasans mind.. Friendship,love, and revenge.. As a 22 year old girl who went to school, went for culturals , heck who went for the Le Park Culturals I can state that that sort of ridiculous revenge doesnt exist!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It might be that "I want my school to win" or "yay!! i get to miss school". And HELLO - no 15-17 yr old will have this shitty "nee ambalaia irrunda" crap. It sounds sooooo fake and silly and stupid.

Let me share a secret(with most men, grls already know it) if u really really love somebody u wont want to take revenge on them, but u wud want the best in life for them...So there goes the entire concept wrong..And the other secret is that a woman needn't be looking like a silly stupid idiot to take revenge..Her silences will give her her victory.

Coming back to the post..I feel that it brings out Simbu's insecurity.Is he scared that a woman can dominate.I am actually surprised that someone like him who actually went to school(and attended the same culturals) knows how these work..Come on..People arent that stupid..Its not just this movie but even his prev work like Manmadhan- women cheating on the guy, 2 timing etc...

Its not just this movie.. I havent watched Timmiru but from what I have seen of the trailers of it, I think Sriya Reddy has also been portrayed as this female reekin revenge on the hero for being jilted in love.Chiranjeevi over Nagma in Gharana Mogudu, A certain Hero over a certain heroine(risk of domestic violence is causing me from abstaining,but i cudnt go without mentioning it). Is the South Indian film industry setting a silly trend that most women arent going to like.. I am not sure..
Just wanted to put across a point I had in my mind abt 10 seconds after watching Vallavan..

On a tangential note there was this Hindi movie called Pyar Tune Kya Kiya(made by Ram Gopal Varma) where Urmila gets obbsessed with an already married Fardeen Khan. There is no revenge, she just wants to be with him, the movie ends with her in the assylum. The movie had great music but a huge flop.
