Over confidence

                NOVEMBER , its the time of exams again.Nervousness creeping in but still we try to act bold and confident.We take a deep breath and say relax! we still have time to study.For most engineering students ,atleast from my college internal marks are generally good.But what about the people who did bad or who couldnt cheat in the exams? I guess they have to slog and slog to get a good score or  atleast to pass in the exams.

               For most people gpa is important atleast for those who think big or for students who are under pressure.And for them if they fail to perform well in even one sem,  their cumulative grade point average will go down .And their dreams which they have been visualizing since years may just crash.

                These are the things going on in my mind since i saw my internal score last week which was 284/360.And this is quite low compared to my previous performances!I immediately came home sat down and started imagining how my external score would be .I calculated the max. grade point average that i can score this sem which is 8.4.Even if i dont sleep for a week from now and start preparing also thats really really hard to achieve this sem.When i realised it i felt very down ,scolded myself .

               And if i dont score more than 8.4 this time i cannot attend the recruitment of two  big companies which are going to visit my college next year which i always dreamt to be a part of !I realized this fact but it was too late by then.Now i just cant do anything except for preparing as much as i can .My fingers are crossed just waiting for some miracle to happen .

                 But the back up plans are always there if not a job i ll take up some other course but my confidence is i would definitely land up somewhere high.This confidence turned into over confidence for a while ,which resulted in bitter consequences.And now all the over confidence has vanished.

The Dictator

             Dictator as the word  goes ,it means a tyrant or an absolute ruler.Previously they were dictators all over but now the world hates dictatorship.The main reasons could be one Adolf Hitler or Mussolini or Stalin  or Saddam Hussain or may it be any other.But the point is should all the dictators be shot dead or hung?Is there no value for whatever good they did in their past track records? Is their life not even worth of re-consideration ?Are they not even allowed to give one last explanation to their subjects? Should they be killed so ruthlessly? Dont they get a chance to live ? to change ? to lead their life normally again with a transformed soul ? Cant they be counselled by a psychiatrist ? 


               These are the questions which arouse in my mind when i saw the video of MUAMMAR GADAFFI being killed.When blood covered his total face and when  he realised death is very close ......what is that ,that a great dictator who ruled a country for 42yrs would like to say in his last moments?what would have had been his last wish ? If given a chance would he apologise ? nobody cared .Nobody really cared.Is it that he did not do anything for his country in 42 yrs? Is it that there is nothing that he wanted to explain to his subjects on when he is captured? 


               But nobody thought of these things prolly because of the mental and physical agony he caused to them directly or indirectly.I admit he never knew the value of life but we did.... i mean all his subjects did know the value as they were under pressure since long.They could have captured him ,questioned him and could have tortured him and made him realise how big a mistake he committed ! Prolly he could have changed and spent his rest of life  behind the bars but in peace.


               I am not supporting or opposing the great dictator but only saying that what he did for Libya on a positive note was great .No other leader or dictator did that to any other country.This link will lead you to something in brief what he did for his nation.http://expertscolumn.com/content/list-good-things-muammar-gaddafi-done-people-libya


                So this is in regard to the great leader in my opinion who was the cause for LIBYA to stand in par with other developing nations.
