Also, I must say that this gives a new dimension to this issue, which I had felt before but never realized so far.. :-)Venkathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13428789050996555079noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20264871.post-8338070307276936272009-03-31T22:51:00.000-07:002009-03-31T22:51:00.000-07:00This issue is not a new one,but one that has been ...This issue is not a new one,but one that has been dissected and analyzed for eons.<BR/>You can say the northies lifestyle is more towards the western side(Uncle Sam).<BR/>Most prominent occurence of the two cultures from what I have observed is their live today and worry tomorrow attitude.With this attitude these people roam and spend a lot unlike we southies.<BR/>Where most of them have worry today and worry tomorrow also attitude.Due to this we get a lot less exposure and lag in many areas like ommunication ,genral awareness as compared to them.<BR/><BR/>But on the other hand our adapatability and flexibility that we gain from our family system gives us an advantage in a lot of other areas.<BR/><BR/>So there is the good ,the bad and ugly for any issue.It depends on you on how you take it.Arjunhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10495162940486236795noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20264871.post-58001271057281565292009-03-30T03:16:00.000-07:002009-03-30T03:16:00.000-07:00I do agree.

But I am afraid, this does not falsify the points in the post. <BR/><BR/>To better understand, we should remind of our college (not long ago), where many sessions were conducted for improving interactions with our class dotchus. To add, the only guy who got to the top was our RS. :-)<BR/><BR/>The reticent 'local paiyans' and bindaas northies (courtesy: Karthik) are their own identity. There is no criticizing though.Venkathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13428789050996555079noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20264871.post-37193747923056299472009-03-29T09:36:00.000-07:002009-03-29T09:36:00.000-07:00made a good read!!But i think its a bit cliched......made a good read!!<BR/><BR/>But i think its a bit cliched... times are definitely changing da... read somewhere that men in chennai are growing into the most brand concious...Agreed that we do feel a bit reserved amidst the northies... tats cos the wat we r brought up, an average tamil guy can never fake accents or just become a peter cos i belive an average tamilian grows close with life and the pretense is not a part of his life.. his culture and values are built on it... even whn times change he will remain the average "local-payan"... I think tat makes him special, he can adapt anywhere but still not loose his local flavour..Vigneshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04195237083337001283noreply@blogger.com
