Words are like girls

Disclaimer- This blog post is totally a work of imagination and is influenced by some lessons that my friend taught me today(11/01/2013). As the post may sound "sexist" by its title but I would like to inform you that it is not.

This post will be a short one as compared to the previous two. The inspiration/influence to write of this blog post is derived from the golden words uttered by my dear friend and classmate Mr. Diwakar Sanduja. 

After an informative seminar given by a classmate on the topic -Dynamics of two wheelers, there was no class scheduled for the day. So the three of us, Diwakar, Manan and I proceeded to the Amul stall in our college and had our share of sandwiches, muffins and flavoured milk. On our way back to the hostel we were having a discussion on the theme of novels and the scenes explained in them by Sidney Sheldon. I asked Diwakar what he does when finds a new word for his vocabulary and if he is able to remember that word and recall/use it afterwards?

Then Diwakar said that he follows that - "words are like girls", further explaining he stated that suppose you meet girl for the first time and you like her, its not in the first time that you propose her or ask her out. Similarly if you find a new word, for the first time you should not look for its meaning (if you can infer it from the context), look for the meaning when you meet with the word again ( and again) and recognize it , so the aim to write is that never try to get a new word to get into your head, have patience and give yourself time to get the word absorbed into your vocabulary.

The seed for Lamborghini: A broken clutch in Ferruccio Lamborghini's Ferrari.

The story or the tale that is responsible for the foundation of the firm named Automobili Lamborghini S.p.A. or simply Lamborghini is not known as a famous tale, but it is quite an interesting thing that drove Ferruccio Lamborghini to set-up a firm  with the objective of producing a refined grand touring car to compete with offerings from established marques such as Ferrari.
Ferruccio Lamborghini, the man who found Automobili Ferruccio Lamborghini S.p.A. in 1963, was the child of viticulturists living in Renazzo di Cento, Province of Ferrara, in the Northern Italy's Emilia-Romagna region. After serving as a mechanic in the Italian Royal Air Force during World War II, Lamborghini went into business building tractors based on surplus WWII military hardware. By the mid-1950s, Lamborghini's tractor company, Lamborghini Trattori S.p.A., had become one of the largest agricultural equipment manufacturers in the country(Italy). He was also the owner of a successful gas heater and air conditioning manufacturer. 
Lamborghini's wealth allowed him to cultivate a childhood interest in cars, owning a number of luxury automobiles including Alfa Romeos, Lancias, Maseratis, and a Mercedes-Benz. He purchased his first Ferrari, a 250GT, in 1958, and went on to own several more.

Lamborghini was fond of the Ferraris, but considered them too noisy and rough to be proper road cars, likening them to repurposed track cars.When Lamborghini discovered that the clutch on his Ferrari was broken, and actually was the same clutch that he used on his tractors, Lamborghini went to Ferrari and asked for a better replacement.
Ferrari responded, saying that he was just a tractor maker, and could not know anything about sports cars. Lamborghini decided to pursue an automobile manufacturing venture with the goal of bringing to life his vision of a perfect grand tourer.

Lamborghini designed and built the Lamborghini 350GTV  in only four months, in time for an October unveiling at the 1963 Turin Motor Show.

Lamborghini as a firm has seen alot of ups and downs during its journey.Lamborghini's ownership was transferred to many owners, starting from 1971 to 1998 Lamborghini has seen many owners and finally Lamborghini was acquired by Audi AG in September 1998.

By technical expertise and brilliance Lamborghini has produced revolutionary sports cars like Countach, Diablo, Gallardo(baby Lambo) and many more. 
So this was the tale of Ferruccio Lamborghini and his firm.

Putt sade (our children)

"Putt saade paeran te khaloe ke nahi" - a soft and emotional song by Dr. Satinder Sartaaj, the song made me realise the pain of a parent when his/her son goes to a place away from them for his studies.

There are many instants in the video where Sartaaj quotes the lines of advice and questions from a parent for their children. Lines like "aethey kadi aap leede dhoye ke nahi te", where a father asks his son that have you washed your own clothes in you hostel and he describes the worry of a mother like she is even concerned about the quality of sleep of her beloved son. The line of the song that affected me the most were "okhe sokhe hoke jado bhejeya see maa peya ne, supne ooh poore dasi hoye ke nahi".

P.S- this is the first post for my blog so do give your feedback and please do point my mistakes in typing and grammar, do suggest any changes. The video I uploaded here has sound upto 5minutes and 20 seconds only, after that the video is being repeated, so please ignore it.
