The Epic Blog of Sarthak Goyal

Today from 2-30pm to 6-25pm no births and deaths happened throughout the universe. Bombs planted by terrorists did not explode. Nobody succeeded in committing suicide. No accidents happened regardless of over speed or alcohol or anything. Not even a single baby was born. All prayers went unheed. Do you know why? because the GOD was busy creating history at Gwalior!!

If there was any man deserving to score a 200 in one days, it has to be him, THE GOD of CRICKET.

With an international career spanning over four decades (1989 -till now),  every word falls short to his stature. He is surely the GOD, humans can't bat like this!!!

50years ahead the time, I will narrate my grandchildren about this mammoth inning and I am sure, they are going to be envious of me. I am just super super excited. Surely one of the best moments of my life.

Thank You Sachin!

Below are some of the best quotes on Sachin:

1) BBC on Sachin

Beneath the helmet, under that unruly curly hair, inside the cranium, there is something we don’t know, something beyond scientific measure. Something that allows him to soar, to roam a territory of sport that, forget us, even those who are gifted enough to play alongside him cannot even fathom. When he goes out to bat, people switch on their TV sets and switch off their lives "

2)Methew HAYDON

“I have seen God. He bats at number 4 for India”

3)Andy Flower

There are 2 kind of batsmen in the world. One Sachin Tendulkar. Two all the others.

4)A banner once said:

I WILL SEE GOD WHEN I DIE BUT TILL THEN I WILL SEE SACHIN

5) Shane Warne

“I’ll be going to bed having nightmares of Sachin just running down the wicket and belting me back over the head for six. He was unstoppable. I don’t think anyone, apart from Don Bradman, is in the same class as Sachin Tendulkar. He is just an amazing player.”

6)Tendulkar’s daughter, Sara

“Even my father’s name is Sachin Tendulkar."

You are enjoying a lovely evening with your loved one and from nowhere, one of your relatives catches you. These are some of the arguments you can use to defend yourself.



1. She is the daughter of my college principal and this is my last chance to pass the exam. Please try to understand.

2. India is a secular country. And being an Indian, it is my duty to celebrate all festival be it id, diwali or valentines day.

3. Just look at her. How can anybody say no to such a beautiful girl.

5. Thank god, You didn't see us kissing.. Ooppss..!!

6. I am only worshiping the most beautiful creation of the God- a woman.

7. You must be thankful that I am dating a girl only.

8. Her sister is as pretty as her. Wat say??

And to satisfy my pleasure, the oxytocin hormone stimulated me to bring her to date.

11. I am only following Sunny Deol- "taarikh pe taarikh, taarikh pe taarikh (Date after date, date after date)"  :p

12. The only effective way- Pray to God..!!

31 December 2009

11:45PM

I was having New Year party on my terrace with friends. My friends decided to go out somewhere and celebrate New Year there. One of them arranged his brother's car. But I couldn't go with them. I felt disappointed because I wanted to  enter 2010 with my friends. They left and I was left at my home.

I was feeling sad :(, wondering that this has been the story of whole 2009- Not getting what I intended. At 11:55PM, my friend called. His brother had refused to give them car and they were all at the society's gate. I rushed and at 12:00AM, I was on roads, with my friends. At that moment I realized, what actually has been the year 2009 for me-

Not getting what I wanted, but neither getting what I didn't want!

I wanted my friends partying till 12:00AM. But they left early. I didn't want to start New Year without my friends, and I was with my friends, not partying but on roads!

When the year 2009 began, only thing I had, was 12th Boards,  in my mind. I studied, missed my cousin's marriage in Hyderabad, didn't watch any movie and neither celebrated holi.

There was school farewell. The nightmare of school life ending was becoming a reality. Hearts were heavy, but there were smiles on faces.

On 21st March, everything ended. Board exams, school life and the most beautiful phase of life were over. I had to think ahead.

I intended the few months ahead would be full of joy. It was but not as much as I expected. My science friends and also, the commerce one got busy with entrance preparation. I too, within a week of last exam, submitted my form for CA entrance (ie CPT).

During the post exam days, I learnt swimming. I read few novels. To improve my communication skills, I joined British Council. 30 hours of fun compelled with skill development at BC was the best teaching experience I ever had. (see here) And it was these classes, which indirectly inspired me to have my blog. (now you know who to blame for this blog!!)

In may, came the board results. I craved an above 95 score, but on pessimistic approach, didn't want to go below my class 10th score of 93%. I got 93.2%. I was satisfied but not glad.

The result followed the rush to DU campus for admissions (see here). I dreamed for SRCC and to the least, any other north campus college. The college cut offs arrived and I managed Campus just at point with SGTB Khalsa. I wasn't satisfied with college but still, at least, I was  in Campus.

Meanwhile, I gave my CA-CPT exam and cleared it unexpectedly with 82%

From July 15, the college began and soon I realized that my expectations from college life was very high and it's not as colorful as shown. But after few hiccups, I managed a decent friend circle (see here)

I turned 18 on 17th August and soon I realized the importance of being an adult. With CA Coaching classes in evening, my life became really hectic. I realized that now life is not only about fun, but hard work too. (see here)

Next few months were tough. Despite the busyness, I was enjoying this new college-CA life. Roaming in campus, reaching late for lectures, hanging out with friends,  long talks on cell, jokes of our CA teacher M.K. Jain, all these were keeping me going.

Then arrived December and the ITT: 100 hours of compulsory IT Training for CA student. With teachers not teaching you anything, making you sit idle everyday for 3 hours, it was such a mental torture. And I couldn't take it and fell ill. The physical and mental weaknesses made me fall in the washroom. The scene of mom and dad holding me on the floors of washroom, still give me jitters. Because of this bullshit ITT, I was on bed. It took me more than a week to recover fully.

December was also the month of college fests and the very fact that ITT was forcing me to give them a skip, made me further frustrated. But I took the risk and missed few of my ITT classes for the fests and the risk paid. The fests, especially Kailash Kher one at SRCC, were rocking.

With tax classes also commencing, the last week on December saw me jumping from one place to another: Tax class in morning, ITT in afternoon and costing class in evening, and then I was supposed to study for my college internals (beginning from 8th Jan). Surprisingly I still squeezed time for hanging out at C.P. on Christmas, watching Avatar and 3 idiots,   and for the New Year Party which ended on the roads.

I can't say if 2009 was good or bad for me. But I can say that the life was much better  a year ago. But the change (from school to college life) was inevitable. I could have surrendered myself or my happiness to circumstances, but I am still going and more importantly, having fun. I have grown as a human being.

The year 2010 posses greater challenges which I will have to meet strongly and with success. The first 15-20 days have actually been quite good. My ITT ended, without much problem for holidays taken; college exams went off in fun and now the OC(Orientation Course) is also going good.

With hopes that our tomorrow is better that our today, I submit my first post on WordPress.

Thank You.

Kindly rate and comment.

Right now I am in a really bad mood... completely frustrated and xhauseted.. first it was ITT(30th nov to 7th Jan)... then college xams(7th jan to 16th jan) and when today i was counting 2 more days to go, for the life to begin.. the OC (Orientation Course) strikes!!! damm... another week of mental tourcher !!!!

The professor is winding up the lecture and you enter the class. I am sure you don't want to make following excuses to get attendance:

1) Time is Money, ryt? Keep this 10 rupees note.

2) You should be grateful. At least, I am showing up my face in class.

3) I was with your daughter!!

4) Does it make any difference if I sleep in my bedroom or in the class?

5) I was about to leave, but then Tata uncle appeared. He wanted me to donate few thousands crorer for his new ultra-nano car venture. But I didn't have the pen.

6) How dare you start the class without me??

7) It's not my fault if the time table doesn't mention that it is in Indian Standard Time.

8) I know what you did last weekend. So, it would be better for you if I get the attendance.

9) The lecture ends at 10 and its 9.55 only. So technically I have attended the lecture.

10) Who are you? Have I seen you somewhere?

"Nobody does solos better than Sachin Tendulkar, nor, perhaps, has anyone endured as much heartbreak during those solos."
-This is how cricinfo summarizes Sachin's 45th ton in ODI.

It was heartbreaking to see India loosing by 3runs. But winning or losing is immaterial against the divine pleasure of watching THE GOD scoring 175.

No matter how much the Yuvis or Dhonis or Sehwags score, there is no better sight in world cricket than Sachin's batting.

The best part was when he received the man of the match, and when asked what drives you to play like this, he said, 'Passion'. 'I love playing for my country, and it's an honor'.

Life plays funny games with everyone. Today it was my turn.

It was the BIG treat. India-v-AUSTRALIA at Ferozshah Kotla, Delhi. I was having the free passes. My friends were going. I wanted to go there. But I refused.

It was the choice I wouldn't have made 99 out of 100 times- missing the match, for my CA CLASS. Unfortunately, it was the 100th time and I opted to sacrifice the match to attend my class. But the comic and the most infuriating part of the story is, THE CLASS GOT CANCELLED

I felt like the guy who leave behind everything for one girl, only to be ditched by her. I an feeling ditched. I just want to break something or someone (to be precise- my teacher, for not informing beforehand)

Now I am only wondering whether an India win is going to act as a pain-reliever or will add to the bruises of missing a match which India won . Still I am praying that India will chase down the 230 target

India's inning is about to start and I am still having a TV with me. So bbye. Do Comment but dont you dare to laugh!!

First of all, Wish you all a very warm, prosperous and happy Diwali!!

Though the craze for burning crackers is now a memory of childhood (thanks to increase in awareness over pollution), still the enthusiasm of Diwali hasn't died. It's still a fun putting all those ribbons and fancy lights on walls, the Lakshmi Puja, lightening up diyas, wearing new clothes and getting holidays. The diwali atmosphere (minus the cloud of smoke) just puts your mood up. And it simply got better for me as finally i got my new cell phone.

Its Nokia 6303 Classic. What really caught my attention is its cool appearance, plus its 3.2mp camera with flash, a must have for a photo lover like me. Apart from this, it has got all the usual features- bluetooth, java, mp3 player, usb connectivity and some really cool games.

Its been one day and I am finding it quite a superb phone for its range. A nice diwali gift to receive na??

After IPL went off from India this year, Champions League came as a lost opportunity gained to catch the T20 fever. There was excitement catching best of the clubs playing against each other and more importantly daredevils being one of them. It was a double header at Ferozshah Kotla on Friday. And I was, missing my CA class, at the stadium along with friends. The first match between NSW and Eagles turned out to be one sided event. Studded with stars like Bret Lee, Simon Katick, David Warner; NSW defeated Eagles by 53runs. But that was ok. The BIG MATCH was lined up ahead. It was the DELHI DAREDEVILS vs VICTORIA BUSHRANGERS.
