they say that true courage lies in the person who gets up and tries again once he fails... and i am courageous... at least i wanted to prove that to everyone.. so i had to do the unthinkable.. so other go than to... well try try again... so it happened..
there are some mistakes which you have to correct before you do it.. others once you do it.. but frankly there are cases when you become so persistent to get it done in the same way as you previously failed (which btw is purely so dumb).. well anyway.. it so happened that i was to do the same thing.. after all my prestige was at stake.. so i decided to move front under the guidance of..... JINO...
a couple of weeks after the aftermath of the incident, when the rate of increase of teasing was getting reduced (something like they reached the saturation limit).. i went to jino for a detailed analysis of the mistake i made that day.. he was a true friend.. he agreed to do it for free.. and gave me a deadline date of 8 days (Sunday included)... on the 8th day he presented to me his findings...
problem 1) "it seems that you are too good for her (ok... here is a encouraging statement...).. i mean in computers not anything else (bah.... thanks a lot mate..). so you have to either bring her to your standard or you have to come down to her's.. (come down to her standard, bring her to my standard?? what does he mean by standard??? not the class coz we are already in my class.. then what else?? its defined as A flag, banner, or ensign, especially the ensign of a chief of state, nation, or city...hmmm.. no way... confused!!!!)"
problem 2) "she is of a category of girls which does not fall for words (category?? in gals there are categories?? that means classifications... it means logic.. algorithms and problem solving... hmmm... maybe this was not such a bad idea after all..)... she is of the type that requires you to demonstrate how much you love her first... (WHAT?? demonstrate love?? how does a homo sapien demonstrate love.. the predecessor of homo sapien which is the ape or Pongo pygmaeus.. they show love by beating on there chest, stamping their feet and giving a mating call... and not to forget fighting for their territory).... you must really make her feel how much you love her... (oh god this is definitely a bad idea... )"
problem 3) "you should spend more time with her... i mean you should make her see more of you.. where ever she looks she should see you.. in class, after it, in her dreams etc.. (in class... fine.. after class.. hmmm fine... in her dreams?? now where can i get the schematics for a dream inducer or at least a telepathic data streamer??)"
at this point i was totally lost.. not even when my parents brought me a book on quantum mechanics or i was reading the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen theory's application in teleportation was i so confused... very well... y bother to understand it when there is a direct solution to it... ask him for the solution... so i did just that.. he took another 4 days.. and finally after 27 days... he came up with the next plan... hi so called counter-counter-failed-original-master-plan... (no idea what the heck that means... as using counter twice would negate the initial negative approach of the statement.. hmmm still interesting usage...)
sol 1) "you have to get less marks than her in a computer exam and show to her that you are in the same standard as her.. (oh he meant marks by standard... how dumb.. no dictionary defines standard as.. marks..).. so how much marks did you get in the last two exams??? ( well i got a 25/25 and another 24.5/25... hmmm note to self: put semicolon at end of statements)... see so you have good marks.. since the marking is best 2 of 3 you don't have any problem..( hey he did have a point!!! but i can get 2 100 percent though... oh. well sacrifice it... done).. good"
sol 2) "Feb 14 is coming up...(oh... that stupid valentines day... another market hype to get more sales).. so you should buy her a gift... (gift?? oh that's easy.. i mean what type???) a real electrifying one.. which would really show how you feel about her... (oh.. hmmmm time to visit 'memories'.. and i know what to buy her too..)"
sol 3) "to be close to her you must join the same tuition class. and then also call her in the evening asking for doubts.. (tuition?? thats fine.. but calling?? NO WAY DUDE!!!)... so you have to join hey physics and maths tuition class!!! (physics tuition class??? for what?? teaching?? OMG... maths?? hmm thats ok i guess...)
so first i had to deal with the third solution... i had to convince my parents that i needed physics tuition.. now how can i do that when we are quite exceptionally good in science subjects... hey but i am not someone who would let go so easily. i used the same tactic as the salesman who would sell a fridge to an Eskimo. i told them i needed to bring my answer level to the lower scale so i had to attend tuition... guess what it worked.. (well if you don't include the question my mom asked about if she was in the same center". maths was relatively easy.... so mission one is a success... and i should say that i did receive a lot of 'encouragements' from the existing tuition mates.
then came the 2nd solution.. i did buy the exact gift that jino wanted me to buy.. i got it packed and even took the liberty of throwing in a I LOVE YOU card with it.. (man.. i am definitely starting to understand humans).. so on FEB 14 i went and gave her the gift. and to my surprise Jino had prepared me a gift as well to go with mine.. it was a chart paper with the pic of a baby in it!!!! (call it delusional if you want but it did bring out a weird aura with it.. seemed to match that mating call i was talking about..).. so i went ahead and gave it to her.... IN FRONT OF THE WHOLE CLASS!!!.. she had no other options but to accept it.. (genius)... she first opened the chart paper... and i got proof that the blushing is a reality for others too.. (but seriously couldn't understand y!!!).. one look from her at me gave me the telepathic warning to remove all kinds of weapons from her immediate surroundings.. next was the card.. (heart pounding... must be adrenaline).. one look and... wow it looked as if she was floating in the air with the card supporting her foot from beneath!!! (most others would take that she is disrespecting the card.. but me being positive (in terms of blood group also) and optimistic i took it as she was placing herself on top of it... so sweet...)... but the next look from her told me to initiate a red alert to my defensive systems.. at least she had the gift to open.. it would really give her the feeling i used to have as jino said.. she tore open the pack as a monkey would do to a paper book..(err... was that a bad metaphor to use here??? after all monkeys have relation to humans!!!) she took hold of the silver box.. and opened it.. (i was feeling faint...).. "AAAAAAAAAEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.... my god... aaa...." and threw the box down.. (it was so dramatic.. hey i am never so dramatic.. maybe its a psychological phenomena occurring with gals..).. still i didn't know that a shock-book could discharge that much current.. what could be wrong.. i used to have somewhat the same feeling.. but it used to emit from my brain and not from a charged capacitor.. well its not right to explain what else happened.. coz the next thing was jino banging his head on the wall and then dragging me out of there...
well after the through training from jino.. this time i was confident that i wont screw up.. it was the day of the exam and i was so very relaxed.. i took the answer paper and wrote..
#include
#include
void main()
{
cout<<"end";
}
thats it... i sat there dreaming of the places would go with her.. the letters i would write to her.. the programs i would code for her.. the theories we both could sit together and discuss.. and after one hour i submitted the paper and left... around a week later the teacher came to give out the answer paper.. it was there... anna... 22/25, aswin...16/25... rakesh.. 20/25.. etc etc.. and finally nelvin .. half out of 25.. stand up there... (looks of disbelief from everyone in the class except jino who flashes a thumbs up (which by the way is the wrong gesture as it signifies the wishing of luck for a future incident.. a completed mission is to be represented by a victory sign.. sheesh.. humans...) soon she was all over me.. "you are having to much headweight (which is true for all humans)... you think you are some kind of extra ordinary human who can get marks simply ( am i not???)... you will suffer in the main exams.. you just wait.. shame on you.. "i dont know why but i feel so happy inside...).. and take off that stupid smile from your face... sit down there.... maneesha... 22/25... etc etc.. jobina... "stand up there... what is wrong with you?? what is with you?? only two have failed... and its such a shame.. (its working.. the plan is unfolding.. hey maybe she will arrange a compulsory combined study for us together... thanks a lot jino..).. shame on you... you could have at least scores half a mark.. jobina.. 0/25..."
WHAT???? comm'on this was not happening.. she could have at least written a pre-processor directive!! i tried my best...and it was a failure.. but the damage was already done.. the power of human observation is pretty good.. the class understood the attempt i was making.. and to my horror jino confirmed it... well here it goes again.. the rate of increase of......
friends!!!! whew... what are they for.. pesky human!!!!
