damn you luck, find someone else to bother!!!

I am particularly worried about my elder sister.. She has the hardest of luck of all the people I know.. She is having one or other problem to deal with all the time.. When did it all start?? I am sorry I have lost track.. I remember her going to college everyday to study Medicine and returning home in desperate need of some herself..

If you haven't guessed it yet, the problems she deal with on a daily basis aren't related to studies, she is damn brilliant, neither to adjusting in with her mates, she is the sweetest girl you would ever come across, but she is particularly prone to some injury or to some extent to some form of physical illness.. In the initial years she used to come home all bruised.. No she never picks up a fight with people.. She has reserved me for it ..;)

She would fall and hit herself badly.. We would laugh and say that she should be taught to walk all over again for a few days, but as the frequency of hurting self increased we started feeling bad for her.. She would be in pain and we now didn't feel like laughing but couldn't help wondering, why she?? In the entire 1st year of her college life, she did loose many a new dresses to these accidents, that were torn after the accident..

Somehow, the gods did have some mercy on her after making her suffer for three years and she spent the next two years happily without having wounds to nurse and we thought her plight was finally over, but at that that we didn't realise that its just a break and not the end of the ordeal!!

For the past one month, luck has again decided to stand up against her.. One day she came back home with the scar of her old childhood wound looking as if it were freshly inflicted and paining and as she medicated it successfully for a week and about to declare victory, doom struck again!! That day she returned home with a badly bruised arm that had been rubbed along road..

It wasn't properly healed when she came back with an indifferent scar that looked like an insect bite or reaction produced by some chemical.. God only knows what caused it, but it was so damn ugly and she was crying in pain as well as at the sight of the ugly mark.. It took a lot of cajoling to cheer her up and pacify her!! The mark, whatever kinda it was, was showing good recovery and she was finally happy to see it gone yesterday and she was dressed in a new dress to show her upped spirit as she left for her college..

We got up in the morning conversing rather wittily and she was so delighted that she messaged me a thanks for such a lovely start to the day with those teeny nit-wits.. I was too delighted to message her back with a thanks and you started to tickle the funny bone and I just reacted..

I was now waiting for her to return, when she entered with small eruptions all over her arms.. Those tiny painful eruptions.. They were again so ugly and her hands were swollen.. Dad immediately took her to a doctor and got her medicines and since yesterday evening she has visited more than 3 doctors.. She even joked about the fact, how she is famous for all these accidents and illnesses that strike her again and again ... As the doomed doctor who is always in need of medication herself..

Hope that she isn't too irritated when she comes back from this other doctor's ... Also I hope that this hard luck takes some time off and let her be happy for sometime... Get well soon sis..

why does she think so much??

I am particularly irritated when my very good friend thinks and then re-thinks on everything that we have decided!!

We have to go to college to get books and all for the new session and we did talk over it many a times.. Ever since the exams were over and we were to think about how to enjoy these holidays, she started worrying about the next step, i.e., the next semester!! While we were discussing the plans of one of us going to Singapore for these brief holidays, she was a bit bothered about the books that are to be collected for the next session..
I somehow handled the situation then, but the next time we met, this was again her primary concern.. She may be mad at me, thinking that I am a way too laid back but I just want her to chill and wait as there is no need to rush in there.. We did talk a lot about it and did try to settle on some date to go to college and pick the books but all the time we couldn't make it because of one reason or the other.. We did decide some date in July [ I don't remember the date now] but she used to talk to me everyday to go before the scheduled date that we did decide on.. I n the end we couldn't go on the scheduled date too..
Sometimes its difficult to stick to the plan!!

Actually we are a group of 4 friends.. So all the plans have to be well co-ordinated to get all 4 of us at a place together with each one's consent.. Its even more difficult when a number of girls are involved as the guys don't mind much about the appointments.. In fact they generally complain that we gals create much ado about nothing.. We try to ask for every one's opinion to prevent any misunderstanding and consequent war of words... I love to stick to a plan once we have decided on it, but the other gals, they just think so much!! Every other day, one or the other sends in a message asking if we can go on one or the other day before the planned day!! Why??? I feel like asking them in the most fierce way so that they leave this habit forever and never ever try to change the much thought about previous decision we made..

I feel, because they never ever made me feel otherwise, that I don't force my opinion on them.. I ask them that I feel this is when we can go, this is where we can go, this is what we can do or this is how it can be done and patiently hear their views on it and then we decide by mutual consent on the issue... But then why do they use their brain all over again!! When all of us together came to this conclusion.. Ladies, I don't intend to infuriate you, nor trying to show you are dumb, but all I intend to say is - "Why do you think so much?" Now don't tell me that you took the Brain Exercise stuff too seriously!!

Now the latest date we put down for that college visit is 11th of August, but now i have started getting messages that lets go on 1st... Why??
I can happily agree on that but what about the commitment I made??
The other friend who is away to Singapore for a vacation would be back by then and I promised her on the behalf of all of us that we all would go together on 11th to collect books!! Now should I tell her that we have decided to go without her while she would always re-schedule all her other commitments to make room for us to meet and stay together.. She puts a lot of efforts to keep us together and maintain peace.. Its difficult to keep all the women happy together.. She tries the hardest.. Even harder than me to keep it all going between us.. So how can I just tell her we decided otherwise.. I told the other gals about it and for the time being we all have decided to stick to 11th August till one of the thinking brains itch again and decide a meeting for a re-schedule...
[No offenses ladies, I love u both and respect your opinion but think sometimes about this gal who doesn't love to strain her brain much with your - 'oh! lets re-schedule']..:D

Time for mixed feelings ....

Its the time of the year when I don't know what is worse, going back to the tightly scheduled college life or staying in contact with friends only in the virtual world, of course texts and calls included... I can always hang out with my friends at the nearby mall but seriously without the chalk dust and the common enemy, i.e. the teacher, that meeting isn't as much fun...

Those silly comments that are shooted from every corner of the class on the unsuspecting teacher to inflict insult and sometimes just to prove that we can outwit them while they behave as watchdogs trying to locate the source to figure out who the nasty commenter was!! As they try to nail the culprit, we see the clocks tick, wasting the precious minutes of the lecture, while teacher is desperate to pour his last night's mugging onto us so that he doesn't has to spend one more night on it ...


That deliberately raising some silly doubt, asking some very obvious thing as question to make everyone laugh and defending the doubt raiser as the teacher calls him foolish, sometimes to just break the monotony of the boring lecture or to test the knowledge and confidence of the teacher..

Playing 'BOLLYWOOD' or 'word building' or 'zeroes n crosses' or 'joining dots' or even 'Bingo' in the class as the teacher scribbles on the blackboard and hiding the notebooks as they come to inspect if we are following...

That listening to the iPod as we prefer music to their strangely pronounced concepts while the cords are concealed very carefully to escape the prying eyes of the monsters... Mimicking their strange accents as we ask questions, again to generate a roar of laughter among the crowd... As the restless beast races to-and-fro like a pendulum about their mean position, we giggle at our achievements...;)

Engaging in talks with your buddy just in time to make him miss his roll call.. Or shout out loud-"YES SIR" in chorus, when some friend's roll number is called out and laugh out loud as the flustered moron looks around to find a weak link to nail down... :D

That deliberately coming late to the class to escape some of the torturous minutes in the beginning and then wasting a few more minutes arguing with the angried bull on why we should be let in.. The one who is able to make his way inside is congratulated and looked up to while the one who didn't brags of saving himself from the lecture and yet gambling on his luck...


As I sit and think of all the good times we spend there I wanna go and join the college, but still some lazy being in me tries to hold me back and I am still wondering whether to jump onto the battleground or still wait and rest...

Rickety bus ride ...

Take any pubilc transport means to commute and you would know what I am trying to say... I took a bus from the bus stop near my house to visit my friend.. As I boarded the bus, I found myself in a damp and suffocating atmosphere.. Thankfully, I got a seat in the much crowded bus..

There are specially reserved seats for women and elderly in all the means of public transport here in India, but what was a very displeasing sight was to see men sitting on women's seat and then delibrately looking outside the window while an elderly woman tried to persuade them to vacate a seat!! They tend to turn deaf and blind at the same time as the rest themselves on these reserved seats.. Most of the time young women hardly try to confront these shameless men but they shouldn't turn a deaf ear to the plight of an elderly person who needs to sit down while these young and fit men stand!!

As I heard the woman, I vacated the seat for her so that she could sit while these shameless Indian men took a sigh of relief till they would be confronted again by some other elderly woman.. the problem is in the mindset of people here.. They lack respect for women and elder and their inner conscience never forces them to take a little pain so that they could be seen as model men.. They them complain of the immorality prevalant in the society.. You immoral men form the society and then point to the collective term used for you all...


The elderly woman I offered my seat to soon realised that I wasn't getting down at that stop and a sudden guilt engulfed her and she started apologising for taking my seat and offered to stand while I take that seat.. I couldn't believe the generosity of the old lady and asked her not to bother herself much as I can stand.. But what was worth noticing was that none of the men occupying the lady's seats felt like ending this silly you sit, you sit conversation by offering a seat...

A few minutes later I got a seat.. How?


Well we women have this sisterhood and try to help each other.. A girl who had witnessed the entire scene called me and offered me her seat as she deboarded the bus to leave.. And finally the old lady felt relieved as I was seated again ...:)

Defending my case

As I was sitting idle and watching tv, I got this message from a friend who wanted to tell me that he did go through my post where I wanted to get a copyright for my lines and claimed to like a few of my lines too and said that he thinks its a great idea to call for a copyright... I tried to defend myself, sniffing the possible shots he was trying to take at me, by trying to argue in the favour and telling him what was exactly the reason behind that so self engrossed post.. While I was putting forward my point of view, I felt that he may not be the only one who might feel like that after reading that silly post.. I may have to defend my case in this cyber world too.. So I took on to writing this piece to prevent being tagged a pompous being..

I was not trying to make myself a part of history and the elite group of men we read and talk about.. I was just a bit hysterical while writing that piece.. Anyone who has a sibling knows about the concept of sibling rivalry and would be able to get what I meant..


The background.. We are three sisters and thus are meant to love and hate each other at the same time.. Dont worry much, we women are capable of doing a number of opposite things at the same time ..;)

Moreover as we all know, the siblings can't be alike.. Not even the twins are!! Thus there are ought to be difference of opinions and IQ and EQ levels.. So creeps in the reason for rivalry.. We want to surpass the other or atleast match up to them.. I am particularly weaker to my sister on the random memory front.. Its when the other can recall some random incident that wasn't important, though you dont remember much about it.. Yeah, you are right, I just invented this front.. But we all know some people who have this kinda memory, and I wont call them sharper here... We who can't recall these unsignificant details are equally sharp..

So the point is that she points out to me many a times that I am using her line and that she was the first one to assemble the vast number of jumbled words that we have learned since we were being assisted in reading and writing.. Or to be specific, since we started uttering words.. So this was my way of gaining evidences to be produced in a later scuffle that I was the one who made these lines..;) It would serve as a final disposition in the family court which is presided over the non involved sibling..

So next time when accusations are made of me stealing their line and getting into a fight for claiming the right over a line, I know I'l have more evidences to support my side and I'll win the right to call that line mine ...:D

love Aaj Kal ....

The movie I am waiting to hit the theatres and multiplexes next door.. The title 'Love Aaj Kal' means 'Love Now a Days' in English but this Hinglish name looks so sweet and so much like the lingo of the youth here in India, that is quite a lovely mix of two languages - Hindi and English..

Whenever I look at the stills and the trailers of the movie, I somehow feel a deep connection with the yet to be released movie.. I remember the last time I was waiting so anxiously for a movie, it was last year at the time of release of Jab We Met.. One of the best of all movies I have seen.. It was a perfect love story, a perfect fairytale romance, a perfect feat for the eyes and a sure worth of the money spent on the ticket..:)

I just hope that the songs in the movie add to the story telling and aren't placed in a juxtaposition to mar the flow of the film.. Sometimes the most beautiful of sound tracks are so timed in the movie to take away the entire fun of the movie rather than adding to the whole experience of watching the movie...

Lets just hope I get to catch it on the big screen and feel the magic of love and live a lifetime in a span of few hours..Hear the music pump in my chest and my heartbeat synchronise with the beat and my heart feel each emotion to get a contented sense of being able to understand the complex and much hyped emotion LOVE...

putting my mind on a rigourous exercise routine ..

When you are sitting idle in your room and having nothing as such to do, I realise that the old famous saying is so damn relevant!! The saying I was talking about is - An idle mind is a devil's workshop.. Yes of late, I have had enough time for myself and thus I have been thinking of ways to spend it judiciously and prudently.. So I gave blogging a try, not just to pass time but also to improve my literary skills.. I thought maybe this way I did give a vent to my pent up feelings and would feel a little less lonely.. Lonely beacuse my best friend is off to Singapore for a brief holiday.. I share each and every small detail of my life with her and what I like most about it is that I am neither judged nor told what should I do or what should have been done!! She also feels this urge of letting me know what happened in the meanwhile we weren't together.. So its a mutual feeling..

I have many friends and I consider self to be too blessed or gifted to have an army of friends but we always have this human tendency of not being able to treat them all alike, so she is favoured and a bit more pampered and tolerated.. Tolerated is the word I used as she can test my patiences to a greater extent than others... It was all written in a humourous way, so no offences to the great lady... I like to address the females I know as ladies rather than girls because I am used to hearing this word more, thanks to my English teacher way back in school, who used to address us as 'my beautiful/fair lady' rather than 'hey girl'...
Back to the track, oh, I know I loose track too often.. So since I can't share a vivid description of the day to day happenings with her and I feel its not the right place to discuss all this here too, I am trying to device out means to talk yet not deluge too many details.. So, I decided to talk about things that plague my mind and the silliest thoughts the things evoke in my mind.. An article, a movie, something someone said to me or to some friend of mine which was duly reported to me.. Whatever that triggers my mind not to be in the state of idleness and into the state of working overtime to try and derive meanings.. To present my logical and illogical thoughts in some form to be understood by someone in this world...

Talking about things in this manner is better than sitting idle and letting your brain turn into a piece of rusted junk that refuses to work at a short notice.. Believe me, just like anyother part of your body, it needs to be made to excersise to keep in shape.. Shape here doesn't actually means the stats but to sum it up in the most effective words would be to maintain your IQ and EQ level intact... Your sense of humour is also affected by constant boredom and terrible feelings of worthlessness creep in with time and mar your self confidence.. I dont wanna end up like this, so even if I know no one is really reading it.. Atleast I am getting the illusion of being heard...[;)]
I know how to find happiness in the smallest pleasures of life.. Its fun to live life like this when you feel complete and contented..

Lines I wrote and would like to get a copyright for!!! ;)

Every now and then, I come up with some witty lines that I wish I could share with the world and also claim them when I hear someone utter them in their conversation..[;)]
Just kidding, but it definitely is facinating.. The thought itself sends me in a Dream world where every other person is speaking my lines.. They aren't exactly like pick up lines or lines you read on T-shirts but some intelligent sentences with great meanings or just some funny wacky lines deeply engrossing your need for self-importance.. We read a few famous lines that some very famous men in history said on their death bed or in their speech while addressing people and we read them with a deep sense of knowledge that we borrowed these lines from them.. Recently movie dialogues are the biggest source of great lines and the moment someone utters them, we shout out loud, 'Oh! you just said that famous line which Shahrukh Khan said in DDLJ'... Or, ' Hey, that's a cool line, but for once use your own line..' in a manner to just tease the person or to embarrass the person depending on the tone... The tone matters a lot in an oral conversation.. The same arrangement of words in a sentence can mean a number of things depending on the tone, which must be clearly intercepted by the listener to avoid hassles.. But that's altogether a different story and would be discussed in detail someother day...
Today I'll focus on my fascination with the concept of my own lines.. [:D]

So let me try to hog some limelight for arranging these wonderful words in a particular fashion that is most appealing to me..

• Putting your trust in someone is the most difficult thing and still 'trust me' is the sentence you hear so often..
• If I were made Almighty, it would be the greatest gamble, yet worth taking as someday I would definitely be in a mood to benefit you..
• Change is so inevitable yet I would detest it and deter it as long as I can!!
• The most intelligent thing to do is always the last thing to hit you..

So while I try to pen down a few more such lines, let me know if I can really get copyright for them ...[;)]

Its for a good friend

It ws a usual morning.. Getting up in the morning, yet lazing around in bed... The maid wont show up and I'll have to do the household chores.. [Its nt compulsory, but I wanted to help by doing it or mum would have to do all that alone... I m sch a nice daughter..;)]

So I got out of the bed and headed for the cell to check the messages my frnds would have sent.. Read the good night messages that came after I had hit the bed and the good morning messages that came in before I got up... Sent them all a good morning message n wishing them all a very good morning n an amazing day ahead, I headed straight to the kitchen to ask how I could help my mum who had been up since 5...

She politely asked me not to worry much as she can juggle all the various duties with great capability and precision... Bt I got onto whatever I could do without disturbing her much...

After completing the work to my greatest satisfaction, I sat down to take a look at the newspaper and again picked my cell to have a look at the messages that might have come while I ws busy completing the great task I had taken upon self ...:)... There were many messages, most of them forward messages with a cute good morning n have a great day carefully fitted in the end bt wat made me strain my mind was a text from a good frnd inquiring if the newspaper we get at home is ht [ hindustan times] or not... and the very next message asked me to read page 14, inner voice column, if I had the newspaper... I ws still not sure of what he meant as he is nt a serious kinda guy... So jst to make sure that it ws exactly wat he meant, I inquired about the page number n the column... Its not that I dont trust him, its jst that I didnt wanted to make a fool of myself by believing him jst lik that... he again texted me .. page 14, Inner voice...

So i finally picked up the newspaper n hurriedly turned to page 14 to read the column n try to understand wat it possibly could mean to him... Reading the headline of the column itself made a thousand things to run through my mind... It read " Suicide is no solution"... I wondered what ws he trying to point to by making me read the column.. Did I do anything that might have made him feel that I can do that n ws he trying to stop me from doing that by making me read the column !! ... Or was he trying to point out his state of mind by making me read it !! ... Was he indirectly asking for help?? Or was he jst trying to start a meaningful discussion? Bt why did he choose the serious topic of 'Suicide'? ... n many more question flooded my mind n I tried to figure out the possible answer by logical reasoning and elimination n recalling whatever I said to him in the past conversation n tried to analyse my behaviour from other's point of view...

The last conversation with him.. It was something lik this.. He texted me ... I texted back.. I ws a bit upset so I asked him if he weren't too busy to talk to me for sometime.. He replied - 'since we both were at our places for quite sometime, there wasn't much to talk abt.. so are we going to send blank messages'... It was definately one of his witty ways, a very funny line.. But trying to dissect it now to derive its meaning taking the 'Suicide' column in background, it could mean a hundred things..
Bt lets take it in the positive sense I took it in the begining coz I ws upset n maybe he said it to make me smile... So now I rang him up n we talked about my bad mood n he seemed too happy n relaxed.. He had bathed in the rain that noon n ws out at around 9.. So probably it was my mood that made him think that I should read the article?

Anyways, putting rest to all this debate in mind, I decided to read the article first n then decide what was going on in his mind ... The most intelligent thing to do is always the last thing to hit you.. :)

So I picked up the newspaper to finally read the article.. It started like this ..
"Its been almost seven years since a friend of mine committed suicide. He was a man of many interests - journalist, photographer, poet, film enthusiast and uncompromising to the core in all his persuits."

Oh my GOD, he was talking about himself!!!
Yes, the description of the man who committed suicide matched exactly with his!! My friend is also a man of many interests.. A photographer.. I have seen the picks he did take with his camera.. n he is brilliant.. A poet.. I have read his poetry.. they have a deep meaning, a pain, a lesson and the enthusiasm of the man ... A film enthusiast too .. A wanna be journalist too ... Oh my God, wat a striking resemblance ... I instantly reached for my cell n texted him.. 'I am not committing suicide, I am not that coward to run away from problems like that n I would never ever let u do that!'
He replied - ' Did you notice the striking resemblance.. It seemed it was written taking me in mind.. and there were times when I could do dat!!'
I again texted him - ' you aren't that coward either.. You wouldn't do it.. I know you.. I wont let you do that..'
still trying to make sure my point is got across well... Never Ever think of doing such a thing .. only a Coward can do that .. and I used the words - Never, Ever and Coward again and again to make them etched in his mind.. So that he remembers my opinion on it forever..
He now tried to explain that he was just trying to make me notice the similarity between that guy n him..
To that I jst texted- ' I would have liked it more if it had a happy ending'...

End of conversation, bt I ws still thinking abt it .. Still thinking about him.. I thought of calling him, bt then thought, I may irritate him by stressing too much on how I feel its not the right thing n how cowardly act I think it is!! and again instructing him to never ever do that or even think of it...In the end I decided not to call him n make him feel like I take him for a fool who doesn't know wat to do n wat not to!! He knows I care for him n that calling him now would have ended it either in a heated argument or he not listening with a receptive mind... But I still wonder wat all emotions the article might have evoked in him.. But I loved it wen he shared a bit of those emotions with me... This makes me have more faith in our friendship.. I now exactly know, why he is one of the guys I look forward to meeting.. Why I talk to him wen I m upset or need to boost my confidence... Why I call him whenever I feel I should talk to someone.. I know he understands.. I know he would listen.. Say those words that we all know yet wanna hear from people we care for n we know care too .. that everything would be fine, that they trust us, that they understand, that they know we'll be fine, that we can achieve it and that we can still go a mile even though we look tired and worn out...
He has always said it all n was always there to listen at the other end...
Just want him to know that I too care n I can go that extra mile with him, whenever he wants me to ... And that I trust him, have faith in his abilities n I know he would be all that he wants to be ...:)

Love u BIMS

why is there so much of fuss over it!!

I jst dont get this much ado about the decriminalisation of honosexuality.. We dont raise so much of hue n cry about two adult heterosexuals living together n getting married, then why so much of fuss if two adult homosexuals wanna live together n marry.. Its their personal choice, let them make it .. They are adults n thus are responsible for their lives n their own decisions.. Suddenly all the people are not comfortable with the idea.. Some religious leaders in India are so offended by the verdict of the Hight Court scrapping the section 377 of the IPC on 2nd july that they have resorted to illogical comments like "homosexuality is a Disease n can be cured by practicing yoga and medication"!!! How offended the people belonging to the community would be is not their concern.. They otherwise preech to love n respect other human beings n not hurt anyone.. I dont know how they themselves forgot that they repeat 24x7 on tv.. These religious leaders are now giving interviews to the media that they would pressurise the political leaders to again present a bill in the parliament and again impose a ban on such unions.. people have already filed a petition again the verdict of the high court in the Supreme court and the joys of people is again put on hold..

It was on 29 june 2008 that I first came to know about the efforts that were taking place in India demanding the section 377 of the Indian Penal Code to be scrapped!! I was thrilled at the modernaity and tolerance the Indian Society was showing!! There was a Queer Parade in Delhi on sunday, 29th june, 2008, that was arranged to protest peacefully against the imperial law.. It ws peaceful and no bad incident was reported...the otherwise Indian Society suddenly looked so modern.. The consecutive year, on Sunday, 28th june 2009, the parade was arranged again n now on a larger scale in various major cities of India - Mumbai, Chennai, bangalooru n others... Then came the much awaited verdict from the Delhi High Court on 2nd July, that decriminalised homosexuality.. People celebrated the modernaity that this new law brought with it, the tolerance n the freedom... It was followed by the conservative Indian society hitting back.. They have filed a petition in the supreme Court to oppose the decriminalisation of homosexuality n demanding restoration of the section 377 of the IPC citing moral grounds..
Its happening in all parts of the world.. Its legalised, thn the law is taken back n people are left to wonder when the debate about a person's personal life would be over...!!!

the loathed machine..

The computer.... oh! the machine, I need so much n I despise so much.. My computer is just fine.. We bought it jst 2 years back.. too young to behave in the way it does!! And to add to my plight, it secures the worst for me!! It works jst fine wen my sisters are using this damn machines, bt as soon as it sees me.. God knows why, it starts hanging... It jst hates me so much ... It would disconnect me from the net n would restart again n again whenever I want to use it but works just fine with my sister...
i would have dismissed it as just a few coincidences if it would not have given me those terrible days!!
I had given time to my friend to meet online and chat.. I would be all ready to work on the machine by the time the clock showed the designated time.. I would sit up in the chair n it would take hours to start n in the meanwhile we would text each other that maybe its not the day...
as soon as he announces that he is going offline, the machine would start working miraculously!!! If it had been jst an incident, I wouldn't have made sch an opinion about the machine.. next time I would give the machine an hour or so to settle down to normal functioning, but as soon as I would need it, it would go crazy again ... INSANE!! It wouldn't log me in, it wont let me sign in n work like a normal computer when I sit on that chair in front of it... It wont save my documents wid the hit of a button.. I have to hit it more than thrice.. It doesn't let me even print a single page without wasting pages.. Its not my fault.. It wastes paper.. We all know how trees are being cut indiscriminately... the issue of global warming bothers me too but the assignments are important too n I can't give the insensitive teachers these excuses as they would dismiss them as lame excuses!!

I could have put the entire blame on my machine, the one at my place if the incidents weren't repeated in the college labs n friend's house... People joke about the fact that I m a virus that makes each computer sick n they never recover from it... Feel like smiling on the luck of this poor little gal!! well everyone is laughing shamelessly on my race so you can too laugh as the possibility of seeing me in sch a situation is rare for all of you!!! In the I-lab, the computer alloted to me was jst fine until I was seated in its chair.. My teacher who is really fond of me asked me gently to start working on the machine.. I answered a bit embarrassed that the computer has suddenly gone out of order.. She arranged another seat for me and this one didn' even start!! so she made me share a computer with my friend n she joked that i should keep at arm's distance from the machine for it to work comfortably..[:] everyone had a good laugh, including me... n i always pray that the machine shows its hysterical nature when I sit in front of it in the exam.. n it didn't disappoint me.. the program ws right, but it didn't run n finally the examiner left my desk scratching his head n muttering - "god knows what's wrong with it!" well it jst saved me...

At my friend's house.. we wanted to watch the holiday pics that were stored in her computer.. she sat on the chair, I standing right behind her n to our dismay the computer didn't start... Tired of trying again n again she was loosing her temper n I ws tired of standing.. so I went out of the room for a stroll n miraculously, the machine could b started without any trouble now... I hated it so much .. Well it was the joke of the evening that was told to each n every member of my friend's family n later to all our friends n even I enjoy talking about my misfoutune with the machine...

so whenever the machine ditches me n i can't catch up wid a friend on the pre-determined time or loose an important document coz of the fault in its saving system.. We all know whom to blame ..[:)]

the frantic call!!

I m awake at 11:23 pm, deeply engrossed in the mystery novel that I intend to finish as soon as possible [I usually sleep by 10] .. I hear the familiar ring tone n it strikes me after a few secs that its my phone.. I swooped out of my chair to grab it.. it ws my good frnd Shona.. I wondered wat it ws!! after exchanging the initial greetings, she said she ws wishing that I ws awake.. I told her I ws reading the novel n would hit the bed wen atleast a chapter is over.. before I could guess wat it ws, she blurted out - "I wantd to confess something.." as I hear her say those words, my mind ws running to all possible thngs that could come next!! she continued as I tried to make her jump to the point skipping all the explanatory part.. she finally spoke up - " I ws always truthful to u except on one occasion wen I lied to u.." I wanted to shout out to her - 'speak up' bt maintaining calmness I asked her - "when?" she first wanted me to think about it n not get angry n fly off the handle..[ I hate it more wen someone tests my patience this way.. by talking abt unnecessary things rather thn coming to the point..]
she reminded me of the incidence wen i walked up to a guy to tell him that she liked him.. she said she had already told him that I would do something like that n that I shouldn't b taken seriously.. she jst skipped the second sentence while telling me the things at that time..
" so what!! " I shouted out.. I tried to explain her that it ws jst hiding a few facts n not lying n that I wasn't anrgy at all after knowing this... she said she was afraid that I would do this n thus was jst trying to prevent the guy knowing that fact.. [ I felt it ws jst that she didn't want to let the guy know she likes him.. whether it ws from me or from her own mouth...] whatever may be the case, but one thing is for sure.. I wont loose temper on this!! n that too wen the matter is atleast an year old ... [ I know that she would definately b upset if I were the one confessing..] but I think time is a very big factor n after all this time, I hardly care about what the guy must have thought about my action.. I did what a friend should do .. No matter i sounded hysterical n somewhat out of my mind .. but I dont intend to make good impressions on everyone I meet !!!
the next few mins were spent in telling her that this wont affect our friendship n that I m not the slightest agitated with this.. n how foolish of her it ws to spill the beans now, when the chapter ws closed long ago!!

verification completed!!

i m nt a computer geek n hav been avoiding the machine for as long as i remember [ i guess since 1st stndrd!!:-] bt wid changing times n needs couldn't jst keep off it.. n i admit it, that, i m likin it more wid each experience.. so mayb this is a new phase where i'll b more friendly wid the machine..:D

first thought

i ws always facinated by the thought of my own space where i could share my views wid ppl.. thus i m trying this thing out.. mayb i wont make an interesting read bt hope atleast i'll find a vent and the illusion that someone is listening..:)
