Expectation is the root of all heartaches

 People have all sorts of expectations from others, they start to expect as soon as they establish some sort of relationship with them. It is in human nature that human beings cannot live in isolation and their happiness is dependent on other’s conduct. The two most common types of expectations are ; the post graduate expectations and the romantic expectations.

Post graduate expectations

As soon as he steps into an undergraduate program, it is expected that a person will easily find a job at its conclusion. His parents and his close associates believe that he will surely get a job, regardless of the prevailing slump in the job market. Throughout the course of his graduation he is treated with a very civilized manner. But after graduation if he fails to get a proper job then he has to listen to very degrading remarks and has to bear this psychological warfare with perseverance. It is very difficult to fight at the home front as a person expects it to be his safe frontier, but sometimes he has to fight the most fierce battle here. The best way to resist is to maintain silence as it is the only weapon that can be employed in this war. Silence will ensure a safe and long lasting victory on the home front.

Love

There are certain paranormal happenings that cannot be explained. The dynamics of love also lie in this region. Love is a strong and the most valuable human feeling. But if it is unilateral, then it is conducive to many insane adventures.

When a person loves someone he expects his beloved ones to replicate the same feelings for him, but if his beloved person does not love him, he gets hurt and acts paranormally. At first he fails to understand what has happened to him as all his expectations from his beloved persons have been shattered like a glass, he weeps and weeps for several days and starts to behave in an abnormal manner.

Then after a while he becomes very sociophobic, he avoids public discussions , he speaks very less and creates his own virtual world in his mind where he seeks inner peace. But this inner peace is not achieved until he finds his real love or partner whose presence is the real essence of the inner peace.

To conclude with one must not expect too much from the people as mostly they cannot come up to one's expectations

Dry wells: an autobiographical account of a petroleum engineer

I was standing in the que for the varsity medical examination unaware of the future (mis) adventures and dreaming about the life ahead when suddenly my turn came and I passed the medical examination. The next day I had to select an engineering discipline from a cluster of 17 unique departments at the NED University. Every student aspires to get an admission in a prestigious institution, but in his obsession to get admitted to a university he/she fails to assess the value of the discipline of his choice. I selected Petroleum Engineering as my father wished me to opt for it. It is different from other disciplines and usually unrelated to them. Here you measure reservoir permeability and porosity instead of shear force and torque (in the mechanical engineering). It was a modest batch of 50 students (modest as compared to the batches in the other departments). We were all very excited through the first year and then dark clouds began to gather over us as the industry face...

NED Diaries

In the beginning (1 st year) I was like a machine gun that continuously fired words that were beyond the comprehension of people. I had few friends as most people avoided me. In the second year I gained some control over my words, though not completely and I started to make some friends. In the third year I almost became a celebrity, as most of the class discovered my talent and I gathered yet another bunch of friends. The third year was the best year in the university life, we had lots of fun and most importantly I discovered Fatima, though I did not have enough courage to talk to her. Taha had to bear two internships with me during that year. The final year was a gloomy year, though we had a little bit of fun, it was a total reign of boredom. The only memorable event in the final year was the visit to Mari Gas Company, the movies that I watched with Belal and the drafting of the constitution of the SPE. Drawing class Engineering drawing was a boring subject,...

Despicable Hitler?

Napoleon once said: History is the version of the past events that people have decided to agree upon. Adolf Hitler, the so called worst dictator of all times has also been victimized by the historians and chroniclers. It is true that he was an autocratic ruler, he was a war monger and his actions led to massive destruction not only in Europe but throughout the globe. He was not the only one to do so, his predecessors from the civilized world and from the great democracies have also committed same crimes but, as they were victors, no one blames them for their acts of maintaining the civilized order of the world. To this day the media including the print and the electronic media portray the Nazis as a band of psychopaths who first captured Europe and then unleashed their reign of terror, conducted the genocide of the European Jews known as the holocaust and in the end were defeated by the Allies. No one says that Nazi rivals committed all those crimes that were committed by them d...
