Proof that Math is screwed up..

(a+b) (a-b) = (a*a-b*b)
=> (a+a) (a-a) = (a*a-a*a)
=> (a+a) (a-a) = a (a-a)
=> (a+a) = a(a-a) / (a-a)
=> a+a = a
=> 2a = 1a
=> 2 = 1

1=2 !!
Doesn't this mean everything we studied in Math is wrong??

Dhoom 2..



OK..I watched Dhoom 2 about 2 months ago..That was the 1st Hindi movie I saw since 2005 or so..and I only went because it was a friend's birthday..I basically thought the whole movie was a load of bullshit..In spite of the cool stunts,bikes,and action..but stupid story..eg.s..
  1. What does Aryan jump off in the beginning,when he's trying to steal the crown..Plane? Helicopter?He's a loner,right?Who's flying the plane(or whatever)?
  2. Aryan has this great idea of flicking a diamond.The standing-like-a statue part makes sense.Using the black robot thing is also pretty ingenious.But wouldn't anyone have noticed the stick thingy popping out of the robot?
  3. How does Jai Dixit keep the water scooter thing underwater? And make it come out just when Ali gives the code word?
  4. Why is Aryan singing "Dhoom again" in the beginning of the movie? As far as I know,he wasn't in Dhoom 1..
  5. Aryan must be damn rich if he can roam around the world,buying bikes,gadgets,and stuff like that..So why does he have to run around stealing stuff?
  6. When getting into the place where the diamond is,how does he get into a sewer and come out through the floor? Don't they usually come out of the toilet?
  7. Why din't Sonehri just tell Jai that Aryan had 6 fingers? They could have placed webcams everywhere,and the 6 fingers could be easily spotted. Jai and Sonehri could have been witnesses..
  8. When Aryan was escaping from the diamond place,How did he create that water pressure to pop the manhole cover off? And how on earth did he change into his 'cool' clothes in 10 seconds?
  9. When Aryan and Sonehri are playing Russian Roulette just before the kissing scene,when did he remove the bullet?
  10. When Aryan and Jai are fighting near the waterfall,how does Ali catch Sonehri so fast? Didn't she go in another direction? And how did he know that Aryan and Jai were going to be near the waterfall?
  11. Sonehri might have shot Aryan with blanks,but how did he survive the fall?
  12. Why does Jai look like Indian actor Amitabh Bachchan?......ok,ok,the last one was a joke..

What the hell's the point of writing the boards?

Considering the fact that I'm an 16-year-old and I'm in 10th standard,my 1st blog entry is gonna be about the ICSE boards.
Considering the fact that there's less than a month to go for the boards,they're all i ever think about these days..boards,boards,boards..Even if I dont think about it,there are plenty of people around me, only too willing to remind me..boards,boards,boards..
Wake up at 5:30,study,study,study,eat breakfast,study,study,study,eat lunch,study,study,study,eat dinner,study,study,study,sleep for about 5 hours,get up at 5:30 again...
That should give you a pretty good idea of my life these days..
When I get sick of mugging,I begin to ponder over the syllabus,and realize most of it is pretty shitty..Why the hell would I wanna know the religious reasons for the Sepoy Mutiny of 1957?Or if Water reacts with Copper Sulphate or not? Or the Jet Stream Theory for Monsoon Rainfall?
Imagine that,10 years from now,I'm a rock star..(IMAGINE!! AND STOP LAUGHING YOUR HEAD OFF!!)..Would i be sitting in the dressing room wondering.."Dude..!!..What are the objectives of the Muslim League..?.." or "Who were the conspirators who killed Julius Caesar..?"....?? Honestly..its all a load of crap..well, at least most of it is..
Wouldn't it be better if it was more um..flexible?
like, Eng I, basic Math and basic Science compulsory, and stuff like Comp, Eng II, 2nd lang, Commerce and Trignometry optional?
If you are a close personal friend of anyone in the ICSE Council, or, even better, if you saved one of the councillor's lives when he/she was a young child, please, please, tell him or her about the agony of the students, the oppression of the children, the desperation of the pupils, and other dramatic stuff like that you can think of.

edit : Yeaah! The dreaded boards are over, I don't have to look at a question paper for at least 4 months, I'm writing this in April while simultaenously listening to music,watching TV, playing The Simpsons:Road Rage, ignoring my mom telling me to do something productive (I AM doing something productive! I'm trying to unlockthe Springfield Dam area!), and I don't give a f*** how screwed up the boards are gonna be in the future, which means you don't have to read that shit I've written above. If you've already read it, try to forget about it.
