When Even a Heartbreak is Beautiful: NLSMUN 2010

Principle of MUN

You know how there are some things you feel which English isn't equipped to describe?
And most of them are the kind of feelings you hate?
Like getting cranky and then just finding the right word- like frustration/indignation/annoyance etc.
The nice feelings are always simple. Pure rather.
And knowing something you waited for since right about forever has come to an end creates one such pure feeling.
Like how i felt when committee adjourned today. UNHRC at NLSMUN 2010. Pure but beautiful heartbreak. Like a job well done. Just one which you didn't want to end.

Now you'd think- why would anyone in the world like MUNs?
Vee says that it's just a bunch of grown ups playing pretend to feel a little important.
Its quite possibly true.
And its probably the reason I love MUNs so much.
Pure scams.
So easy.
So straightforward.

I <3 straightforward things. Which is exactly why i love dumb people.
Minimal functionalities. Figure out the formula and apply it.
An MUN committee is mostly like that. Figure it out. what everyone else wants. and then just articulate it for them. So simple. So Brilliant.

Like the beautiful woman- gas stove example for the Theory of Relativity. Motion to invade your national sovereignty? (Lame Joke. That's because I stole it. My jokes are always awesome)
Its cool like that.

But I also like MUN for attractive men. In suits. Yummy! ;)

Love and All That,
Niya

Down with the Maoists. ^%&&**%^#$

So,

I'm in a rather iconoclastic mood.

Yes, i know, that in all probability I shall have used the above big word inappropriately.

But come on! Cut me some slack and let me feel good about myself.

Yes, so where was I?

Aha!

The stupid, irrational, State-hating Maoists just killed our soldiers.

And the kiss-ass, pathetic government will do nothing about it.

Or rather, they shall pretend to take initiative and then shut up and sit down in a corner with their hands up in surrender to Human Rights.

Really. Jaa ke chudiya pehen lo.
Come on Government, Roll up your sleeves and show them who's boss.

Its like an everyday affair now. People dying in India. 

Now i could see that as a good thing with population explosion and everything but i'm a human rights activist at heart and I'm not going to let people- MY PEOPLE- die like that.

I wish we were a more inclusive democracy.

Or at least a more active and involved state.

Gives, India, my motherland an entirely new meaning.

PS- notice how un-feminist this post is. Rather how anti-feminist this post is. I'm fighting against falling for their ideology.

PPS- the context of iconoclastic was- no feminism, no marxism

Miss Universe and all that Jazz

So,

this gorgeous eighteen year old from venezuela won miss universe. Making it venezuela's sixth and second cosecutive.

for a record, that's phenomenal.

But the background is retarded.

the stupid country is crazy!!!

I mean apart from being anti US and all (not that i think the US is the coolest place on the planet) those people are obsessed (read: *UCKING OBSESSED) with these beauty pageant things. Apparently, they think its the perfect path to fame and fortune.

The Miss Venezuela pageant telecast has 80% viewership and those people sell miss venezuela dolls.

They have academies which train you military style for posture, smile, dance and such other pageant-y things and ensure you win. Yes, they also offer plastic surgery.

I mean, i totally get the importance of external beauty and all but really- this must be one shallow country.

Like there, teenage girls think its normal to have breast implants so they can emulate these living barbie dolls.

Really,

considering the first world is already seeing the sexism in it, (and all of us coming from apes copy the first world anyway)something should be done about it.

or let's just stick to the venezuelan mantra-

"if you have beautiful women(even if the scalpel makes them so), show them to the world"
