One of my words (to implement) is "Dabangg" this year...

Dabangg = fearless ...very shamelessly inspired by the Salman Khan starrer..no, not the movie, but by its title track ;P

He ended the talk imparting a simple belief: "You can solve the world's wicked problems." Considering he was addressing a group of primarily highschoolers, that belief is quite ...intriguing, no?

In barely an hour, Mr Vaitheeswaran briefed us on what he thought would be the main issues our future generations will be confronting us about. And, no, the War on Terrorism or the Corruption of Capitalism won't be on that list, he was quite sure! [His new book "Need, Speed and Greed" goes into details; he did a general outline for us]. If his credentials (refer to the poster) and charismatic speech is anything to go by, this guy can be counted upon: He certainly has some strong convictions and enough research to support his reasonings by. And an audience-friendly, confident manner, I should add, to effectively convey those beliefs.

~ I personally was bowled over by the simplistic way he addressed the quite complex issues, and by the sheer fact a group of high school kids was hosting this event!! Go figure...what was I doing at 17/18?? 'Tis never too late (or too early) though; for, when he ended the talk with "Your efforts will make a difference!", I found myself believing it to be true. And I hope the rest of the audience did too! :)

My affair with Tropicana Ends!!

So my father bought me a few cartons of Tropicana Pure Premium Orange Juice from Korea, yes I know, I insisted because we don’t get it here in Bangladesh and I’m an addict. So I drank some while working today and got to think, how is it that Tropicana juice tastes so good? Why does it taste the same everywhere regardless of how it is made? Why doesn’t the orange juice made in my home taste the same? This led me to do some research on a much loved childhood brand of mine. Which led to this heartbreaking article by Food Renegade which you can access by clicking here. That article led me to finding more that led me to finding out that Pepsico owns Tropicana, which I didn’t know that. I digged up a lotta dirt on these OJ brands of the world and became fairly depressed for a few hours. I have two cartons left to consume but no love or lust anymore. I quit red meat a fair few months ago because of atrocious factory farming of cows, goats, sheeps and so forth. Free range chicken being my only saving grace for the meat category. 

So it seems that my love affair with Tropicana is about to come to an abrupt end….my parting words being “its been years since I have loved you only so loyally and with such passion only to know now that you were so fake all along my dear 100% freshly squeezed natural no nonesense, no preservative, no sugar or no concentrate juice babe……you are the equivalent of a girl with implants where there should be none, especially when you claimed you were all natural.” Thank you Synthia for indirectly making me research this more. PEPSICO you bastards, how many of my childhood memories will you piss on??!!!
