Nostalgia is like a grammar lesson: you find the present tense, but the past perfect!

They say 'Nostalgia is a seductive liar'.... but it feels so good. 9 Years out of MIT.... A look at a MIT video always opens up a smile of the good old days that is now just a memory........

Hats off to the creative team behind this video..Mighty Mighty MIT !

The world is full of people whose notion of a satisfactory future is, in fact, a return to the idealized past. I guess I'm just one of them :)

Time of your Life

I went on a nostalgic trip this weekend as I was talking to some friends of mine and listened to some good old favorites. I was on you tube and was surprised when I saw some cool videos of MIT Manipal, my alma mater. Check out these cool videos.

I could go on and on about the good times we had back in those days. No lyrics can capture the fun, passion and the moments. Here's a couple that really get close...

Time of your Life
- Green Day

Another turning point;
a fork stuck in the road.
Time grabs you by the wrist;
directs you where to go.

So make the best of this test
and don't ask why.
It's not a question
but a lesson learned in time.

It's something unpredictable
but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life.

So take the photographs
and still frames in your mind.
Hang it on a shelf
In good health and good time.

Tattoos of memories
and dead skin on trial.
For what it's worth,
it was worth all the while.

It's something unpredictable
but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life.

It's something unpredictable
but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life.

It's something unpredictable
but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life.

Enjoy them.. coz later in life travelling down this memory lane is what soothes ur heart n mind.

Hum, rahen ya na rahen kal
Kal yaad aayenge ke ye pal
Pal, ye hain pyar ke pal
Chal, aa mere sang chal
Chal, soche kya
Chhoti si, hai zindagi
Kal, mil jaaye to hogi khush-naseebi

Hum rahen ya na rahen yaad aayenge ye pal
