Burnt Apple Inc

I have this huge (okay not so huge) retro Apple Inc poster in my room.I was really inspired by Steve Jobs graduation speech and in that memory had got this poster.



Now this is what happened.. my neighbors kid had come over,she is just 5yrs old(I think)and when she looked at the poster she said "Look mommy di has a burnt apple poster" (though it was cute) I was really annoyed and said kid thats not a burnt apple its an inspiration apple and actually explained her what that apple meant.

I guess she now hates apple.Hahaha..this is what they call perception I guess :P

P.S:If you haven't heard Steve Jobs graduation speech before you should,its really inspiring :)Here's the link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D1R-jKKp3NA

Q's?

Some serious,some funny,some weird,some foolish,some random questions that always gets me thinking..

~Why do people hate and care to tell you that they hate you?
~Why does sometimes the solution seem more complicated than the problem itself?
~Why do people play heart games with mind?
~Why does bad memories always flash on good days?
~Why doesn't it rain,when you carry an umbrella?

.... I still have questions.

23 err..just a number??

No sooner an Indian girl turns 23,the society starts planning her marriage.
(Hit me I thought we where in 21st century)

This is how it goes..
Pa and Ma:Start searching for the perfect groom for their daughter.
Aunts:Get kundalis and photos from every corner of the world.
Cousins:Advise you on choosing the right groom and suggest online matrimonial.
Grandma says I had kids at your age.
And friends they just ask..is it on cards yet??Whens the big party??


But it was different in my case..(Godji thank you for that,I owe you one :D)
Pa and Ma:Actually asked me what I wanted to do next MBA/MS? And Pa even gave me an option of no marriage(YES! He did :))
Aunts said oh,she is still a kid.
Cousins thought my marriage was a offense like a child marriage..
Grandma said don't marry until your 30 :)
And friends they just laughed it off.

And for those who keep asking me 'when is yours' here's my answer
NEVER (:
