Ek Chotti Se Love Story

Clock Strucked 12. Alarm started to Ring loudly.I reached  my Flat and Rang the DoorBell, it was Pouring Like Hell Outside.
I was nervous,shivering and a wide array of thoughts running into my mind.
Drops of Sweat rolling off my Forehead. Fear was evident in my eyes...
'What if Baba Finds out? Maa will never forgive me.'
'Do Rajvinder,Jyoti and Alex already knew about this?'
'Shreya and her Parents ... What will they think.'
'What will Happen to Garima now?'
'My Career is Screwed'

I am never going to forget that night

1 Day Back
26th March 2012  CAFE COFFE DAY PUNE
'Where are the girls?' Rajvinder screamed on his S2.
I never really liked Rajvinder,His Carefree attitude towards life, his arrogance.
He came from a Rich Haryanavi family and always thought Money can get him anything
Respect Among friends,Girlfriend,Power....ANYTHING.
He was a stubborn Rick Kid and i am Glad i was not one of them  as Once these kids grow up and get pushed out of the womb into the real world, they’re screwed. Unless of course their parents are willing to tube feed them for the rest of their lives. Which in some cases does actually happen.

Lost in my own Thoughts...i felt a someone pulling my cheeks .... Aaaaaaah
'Kya Soch rahe ho Badnaam Shyaar' Garima Perked up.
'Hi Garima !' I Replied instantly. Sweet Smell of Rosy aroma filled the air.
Her Body Spray Frangrance has the Best Aroma. I Guess she uses roses,lily or whatever
I Always wonder how can a Girl Smell so good All the time.
Here its me Always Smelling Like a Rotten Dead Rat.I always wanted to Smell Just Right for Garima and always failed Misreably. My Fluids start flowing as soon as i come under the sun.

'I am all excited for tomorrow,Matheran is going to be fun... btw new Tshirt. Pocket Money aa gyi kya ghar se?' She Said
'Nopes i won't be able to come tomorrow...I ahve a Interview ...Shreya gifted me and i don't like it'
(She started smiling. Girls like guys disparaging other Girl. Guess this makes them feel better)
'Aachi hai na, i like it...Leave it what about your Interview call'
'Its scheduled for tomorrow'
'Wowie Kal Kaha Treat de rahe ho Phir Hume' She Blinked
'Let me Clear First' I retorted ( This was the fifth Interview call of this week. and i was not able to clear any of them.)
'Don't Worry Siddhartha, You are going to clear the interview this time.' She Smiled.
I smiled back. She is just what i need.I wanted to get up and kiss her perfectly Shaped lips .


'Wassup Bitch' Rajvinder's Husky Voice interrupted my Honeymoon thoughts.
Garima and Rajvinder are a Couple.But whenever Garima comes i always forget my not so great Stage 1 Friendship ( read aquintances) with rajvinder. Such is her Aura. So pretty Like Camilla Belle, So Vivacious Like Karishma Kapoor, So voluptuous just like Megan Fox , So Graceful Just Like Lady Diana. In Short...I am Completely Smitten With Garima. Unfortunately for me She also Likes Rajvinder.

I gave Rajvinder a nonchalant look then and directed my gaze on the Random Guys Checking out Garima.
Not their fault i said in my mind...even i do the same.
I decided to concentrate on my Cold Coffee.

Rajvinder and Garima Got Busy in their Matheran Trip Plan.
This was my main problem my The older I grow the more I like listening to people talking. Fact is i am unable to speak and express myself.

'Oy Sidharth...U not coming to matheran...y? Rajvinder tapped me on my shoulder
'Dude I have a Interview Call tomorrow'
'Abe Kyu ja rha hai ...Clear to Hoga nahi'
'Rajvinder Stop being so mean to him. He is trying and i am....' Garima Came in between
'You will not Understand Rajvinder. Sab paka Pakaya tere ko mil gya hai na' i raised my voice
This is why i hated haryanavi bastard. He had everything wat i needed including Garima and he loves to belittle me and embarrass me in front of her.

'Chal chor Dekh Liyo....Jyoti Alex and Shreya are also coming'
'Yeah i will try.' '
Suddenly my Mobile started Vibrating. It Was Shreya.
Shreya is from Mumbai and my Fiancee. We got engaged a week back. She is an MBA working with a Leading IT firm as a Business Analyst.She loves me a lot. I also believe I Like her. but unfortunately me and her agree on absolutely nothing.

I excused myself, Got out of CCD and picked up the phone.
'Hi Siddu'
'Hey Shreya'
'How was my Tshirt. u Liked it?'
'Yeah it was nice.' I replied coldly
'Thanks Siddu. BTW i will be coming for Matheran Tomorrow. Nisha is also coming'

TO BE CONTINUED...

Trip to Andaman !

Rahul 'the wall' Retired.
Countless blogs have been written heaping praises on Rahul's Dedication,Focus and Team man Spirit.
These few lines are also not going to be very different. If you hate Rahul Dravid You always have an option of closing the window/tab and surf Semi Nudes on TOI or may be stalk people on Facaebook or maybe Google 'Sachin Tendulkar' Records'.
Rahul accroding to me was greater than any tendulkar or ganguly if u talk of consistency , patience and Overseas records.
Generation coming may get blinded by the stats of some GREATS and probably will never realize the Impact of Innings played by Rahul Dravid on the Overall Outcome of the games.( Centuries too. Pun Intentional).
Countless times he has rescued INDIA when other STARS flopped. He scored runs in tough batting conditions and in overseas Tests that led to wins abroad, a phenomenon that till then had been pretty rare in Indian cricket.
Rahul according to me had still a lot of Cricket left in him. Just like Tendulkar century of Tonns or Bradman's average is impossible to emulate similarly filling Rahul's Number three position ( at least in INDIA) and living upto all the crazy expectations is next to impossible.

Mr Dependable You are Going To be Missed !

Sachin's Century of Tonnes.
INDIA lost to Bangaladesh. Still Whole India Celebrated. .
Don't want to start with the debate of INDIA losing whenever SACHIN scores. SACHIN is a Genius and a GOD's gift to Indian Cricket. I agree. But FACT still remains INDIA lost that match to Bangaldesh Thanks to Sachin Playing Slow for his hundred, Helped by some poor Indian bowling leading to something which surely wud have spoiled Sachin's Celebrations.
Trust me i am not a Random Sachin Hater who criticizes Sachin just to seek attention.

Life is getting Busy with every passing Day. Thanks To MBA and never ending Exams, i have missed Shaadis of very Close Friends. This Blog is not going to compensate my absence from your special day my Friend , neither is this a public apology for my absence. Trust me choosing between your marriage and *&%$#@! exams was a Toughie. I got Selfish and was blinded by the  "fear of Exams" :(
Hope you are going to be sensible and will understand my situation and not reciprocate the same actions :P
Everyone hates Exams. But My dear friend my absolute HATE for Exams has ten folded now.
Most importantly Your intentional silence over the issue makes me feel more miserable and i want to DIE. Off-course i don't like the idea of dying and if i do die too young , i hope i can accomplish enough things that makes you happy.

Titanic 3D Version is releasing  very soon. Leonardo Di Caprio is now a huge name in West, Kate Winslet is now less chubbier and more Rosier. But is this the reason enuff to watch the EPIC 'YET AGAIN' on the big Screen.
'Are they Going To See the ICEBERG this time Now that They are releasing it in 3D.'
Total Waste of Money , Time and resources If u ask me what this 3D version is.


Moving on to some more Serious Career Related Section.
Met a friend after a Long time...He Recalled his Horrid Office Story
I always believed Office is where boring people do boring stuff. Reading Files,signing documents, meetings and what not.
'His' brief stint at a company further personified 'my' belief.

" I never had any sky high expectations. But guess that also was a bit too much to ask for.
Office Guy can be a metaphor for a person who lacks in human characteristics like honesty,loyalty,emotions.
You always has to do 'Sir Sir' for the people higher in the food chain or else be prepared to get eaten.
If you are truly focused towards your career, office is going to be energizing and great fun. This is what i forced myself to believe. But you can't close your eyes forever and chase the ideals which don't exsist. Surroundings do takes their toll on you.
No matter how much u slog, no matter how many times u pass fake smiles whenever he passes, no matter how many times you have accepted the mistakes which were never yours at the first place.... BOSS is never HAPPY. ORGASM is what he expects but sadly you never last that long.
On a Lighter Note Some Times I feel like suing NAUGHTY AMERICA people for projecting an Office image to Indian Youth which is So far from Reality.  "  He Said.
( Above description is Not Mine. So don't jump the gun and get any wrong ideas. All Workplaces are not the Same :P )


Best thing that has happened to me in all these months probably is 'THE TRIP TO ANDAMAN'.
it has given me a reason to live till the next year. Can't Wait for 31 st December 2012 .
Far away from the 'Hoo Haa Hoopla' of the City, from the over crowded smoke filled Discs and Pubs, from Scantly Clad Girls and their Macho Boyfriends .... this New Year has to be different.
My First favour of the New year is to Gift myself 'Peace Of Mind'
Clean Air, Transparent Water, Coconut groves, Soothing Waves, Bright Sunshine. I Have not heard many things about Andaman. Last time i saw Andaman and Nicobar islands It was in my Geography Books.
And i am Serious about taking my Chances this Year. Anyone who wants to join the bandwagon can Always reach me on my cell.

Waiting for your Fair and insightful comments :D

Have a Great day Ahead....Tadaaaaa !!!

Hasta-la-vista

This summary is not available. Please click here to view the post.

My Tryst With Truth !!!

Its 5 in the Morning Here. Have a exam today in afternoon but somehow i am not able to cocentrate SO TYPICAL OF ME and it is rather unusual for a guy like me to write a post at this time.10000+ plus thoughts are going in my mind...It’s like all of a sudden the “thinking” part of my brain is more active without even wearing a thinking cap, Probabaly i Should BLOG.


First things first...I hve some serious issues with my hairs. YES you can very easily say i am paranoid about them. Yes I do. I am not a baldie though…No I am not, neither am I on my way to becoming. However something unusual happened yesterday i went to meet a friend.He came to pune after four or maybe five years. first thing he said was 'abe tere baal jhad gaye kya aur saley mota bhi ho gaya hai tu'. i was like OMG i am obese i know that but i am balding thats new to me.Although it amazes me how the sensible and insane part of me can actually fight over such a trivial issue like falling hairs, and finally it leads into more Frustration.
Ohh And for those who are wondering what I did next. I didn’t wait there for more than half hour before I said to him thank you! …He said these two words putting more salts on to my wounds as it were… “Khyaal rakhna!” …I said “F U” in my head.


Now to some more serious issues. I have a thought prevailing in my mind and i cannt stop admitting it. I have a feeling about my friends. How strange is the fact that People always leave. I had come to know about the fact this night. How foolish i am really. Whatever goes on in my mind is not all rubbish.No one stays forever.
There are sometimes in your life when you have to move aside all the knowledge to make way for your beliefs. and Beliefy defies my knowledge here. belief says we are still the same but facts say something different.


This is the second time i have felt lost.I have to fix almost everything in my life, I don't know how!! Friends say, Let it be, 'Sab Theek Ho Jayega' ... but When? How? Results, disappointments, Career, Friends, Family !
There are some tough decisions to make and a tougher time to face. The worst thing is to know that you have been a stupid till now and it is you who is responsible for everything, first, spoil everything for yourself and then look for some ways out of it.


This was a brief review of all the melodrama of my own shitful life which could have been worse thanks to the uncertainity in the exams ( not many people will understand what i meant here. no fault of yours)


Enough of those serious talks :P
Came across this beautiful comic strip on FB

And Yes Some one also shared a pic on facebook of mahatma gandhi dancing with a white lady.

It heartbreakingly amazes me is the tendency to update 'status' in a fraction of a second spewing venom about someone even if you don't know the person. 
i don't know mahatma . I was not fortunate enough to see the person but honestly it deeply saddens me when people without even knowing the facts make a irresponsible statement and share something absurd, hollow and vague just to get some attention . In Doing so they question there beliefs and there motives and deny them the respect which they deserve. Mahatma was a leader and lead the movement of freedom with Great intergrity and courage.I am just one of the Billions of those dreamers who grow up in life with a dream of achieveing something as great as what Gandhi ji did.
Mahatma Gandhi and Bhagat Singh, two Legends of the Indian freedom movement and inspirational leaders who laid down their lives for the freedom of the country. Committed as they were towards the goal of India's freedom from British rule, But still Genration X gets up and questions Gandhi ji's ways and Bhagat singh's ways.
'Arey pehle khud kuch karo aisa desh k liye tab aake baat karna.'
Though I am not totally convinced with everything he did.. but he was in general a Good Person.. much better than many. 
Mahatam Gandhi, Jinaah or Bhagat Singh who is more Secular or Communal we don't have enough proofs to draw any conclusions. Some people Say that Nathuram Godese's testament. So You are willing to Ignore all the Great work Done by The Mahatma On the basis on 10 page testament. Really !!!
Is it enough to bring him under trial and to judge him guilty of not being a patriot and honest person ?


India Against Congress. 
Everybody love to blame the congress for anthing and everything these days.
 Be it Rajeev, Nehru, Sonia or Rahul no one is spared. A few months age he was looked upon as a future leader by the media nd the nation and all of a sudden he is enemy no 1.
Stop envying RAHUL GANDHI. Politely speaking the sooner you accept the fact that he was born with a silver spoon  and you weren't, the better it gets for you. Stop blaming him for the anarchy in the country and for everything that goes wrong in this nation, however rotten they are.I have special sympathies for people with status updates: 
1) India against congress 
2)Rahul's Mafia GirlFriend
3)Sonia's past life.
4) Swiss Bank Revelations about the Indian Money.
 Trust me People, you're not funny( at least to me)and at the same you also aren't doing anything for the cause. In the age of Technology its so easy to manipulate people and fool them . THANKS to the MEDIA.
By saying this i am not saying what Anna ji is doing is wrong. We stand United aginst corruption but a line has to be drawn somewhere and i am pretty sure half of the people in the movement don't even know what the main agenda is. This is the main concern.


Sachin yet again failed to cross the 100 Ton mark. fans were stunned into silence at the Feroz Shah Kotla stadium when Sachin Tendulkar once again missed out on his 100th international ton... But india did managed to beat the west indies.
He He He GOD Deinied West Indies to be the part of the History


There are many mysteries which are unolved like 
a) the mystery of bermuda traiangle, 
b) mystery of sachin's glorious career, 
c) mystery of fauja singh great health 
AND
.
.
.
.
d) mystery of PARMINDER SINGH scoring well in exams. 
How he manages, when he studies and what goes inside his head at the time of exams is completely alien to me. 

Ra one: OHH  how  can i miss this :p
People and there Love to pull SRK down.Even before the movie got released there was a lot of negativity for the movie which baffles me.
I was amazed to observe how random people on FB were totally clued into the business prospects of the SRK starrer. Not just that they are glad to share the innumerable jokes around Ra.One which have been making rounds of internet and SMSs.  Arey Problem kya hai Yaar. If a film is perfect then no amount of negativity can really bring it down. However, this hasn't really been the case with Ra One which does have its own flaws.
But at the end of the day despite all the odds movies fared well and managed to earn decently at the box office.


Signing off Now. Have my paper at 2 in the afternoon. Have a Great Day ahead.
Tadaaa !!!

What Not to do @ Placements

Its Placements time in college. Everybody has suddenly become very serious and focused .

'Bhai Kaun kaun se Company aa rhi hai?'
'Arey Koi date to Batao'
'Confirm nahi to Tentative Batao'
'Abey Tu Saley Bus Apna Karwayega'
'Question paper forward kar Mere ko'
'Abey Interview me kya kya puchenge'

Place Com is Bombarded wid all sorts of questions. and They are smart enuff to duck the bouncers 'Ask TPO, ask Director sir'

Suddenly Everybody wants to attend the Guest Lectures.
Everyone has taken a vow to toil real hard in the small break. With an MBA gyaan of our standards, i'll have to slog real hard and leave no stone unturned to get a job.When Friends around start getting placed..tension starts mounting. This can be seen on the faces of many. :)

Here is a snapshot of a interview i faced last week.There were three members in the panel. One south Indian senior Friendly Looking Guy,One Suited Buited Serious Looking Young guy and a Alumni of our college

“Good Evening, sir. Good Evening, sir.”
“Good evening (almost in chorus).”
“Take your seat, Manu.”(serious looking guy)

“So Manu. Tell me someting about yourself?”
“Blah Blah”
“What are your hobbies”

"But why? You said your area of interest is IT. Try for something of your area of interest"
"Sir when i said IT is my area of interest this dosen't means i don't have other areas of interest"
Senior looking guy starts Smiling...

"Why are you so passionate about this job considering it is not related to your previous IT EXPERIENCE"
“No sir, Not at all.i Think my previous experience will help me here because at the end of the day its business and all the business have a very simple agenda sell your product and earn profit. so my knowledge should be helpful"
"I am Not Convinced...Convince me"
More Confused
"Sir being a part of business at one time i know how it exactly workk. selling is very imporant"
Seniors looking guy cuts me short
"Then you should have applied for sales...!!! "

Tell me something about your Previous Work experience

"OK. How has Joshi Vada Paav Marketed themselves. I don't see there posters and banners in he city"

"Its HOT"
"No Sir...Its HUMID"
Lady starts smiling...

Then routine questions were asked...
Atomsphere in the room is more friendly now...everybody is smiling
Interview goes on for the next 30 mins. Needless to say it was a disaster.
But Experience was good.

Things that i have learnt from this interview:
1) Don't try to act oversmart with the panel. They are smarter.
2) Never bring Raone In Between
3) Apply deo before u enter...in case u start sweating.
4) Never Fail to demonstrate enthusiasm if you are not then fake it.
5) Always stick to your guns.
6) Never Fail to remember what you wrote on your own resume.

Hoping Post Diwali some good news comes. Happy Diwali to everyone.

Panda Singh !

I don't remember when it started or who started or why it started.

The relusive, anti social , non partying person i am . I deserve to have a very few friends. I have a small set of extremely special skool friends, college friends, company friends and relatives. Friends from all stages of my life so far.

But one special friend deserves a special mention.

She is a friend, a sister, a mentor, a ray of hope and happiness to me.

She has bundles of energy(Female SRK)...She is sweet and cute also has a super electric 440 watt smile.

Nice to me at all times... She also Keeps in touch me no matter how i much ignore her. and i still don't know why?

Keeps pulling my leg for anything and everything... Expert in cracking the silliest jokes possible...Makes me listen to Alienist music possible which i don't understand.

Uncontrollable at times...no matter what mood i am in. weather i am sulking,feeling low or felling left out...when she is around there is bound to be happniess around me.

She always has a stamp of authority and surity in whatever she says...the confident girl she is.

Has a aura of a superstar. Has lots of friends.and most importantly all her friends geniunally like her and come to her with there problems. She always goes out of the way to help them .... Probably she is the nicest, gentlest soul on earth.
A Voracious Reader, Great Dancer, Singer and at the same time Brilliant in academics. Multi Talented and Multi Faced Personality.

This small write up is my acknowledgement to her presence in my life. A friend with heart of Gold and the biggest chatter box i know 

I love how you always text me with a “Hey Pandu!” and I can imagine your tone. Today I dedicate this blog post to you Panda Singh aka 'Dosto ka Dost' and 'Dushmano Ka Pakka Dushman'. Its Greatness written all over you. 

Boring Sundays !

Why are Sundays so Boring and dull?

They say a well spent sunday brings a week of content.

But All i do is Sleeping...Facebook stalking and eating.

i really actually don't know what to do on sundays. One boring sunday afternoon made me realise what a waste i had been till now. What a waste Sundays had been for me so far.

i made an impromptu decision to do someting constructive on this sunday at least. May be i sould i pen down my  free flow of thoughts in my conscious mind.

i Mean for how long can i stare at random beauties on facebook ( hopefully it's not as creepy as it looks...all females reading this every guy no matter how seedha he appears spends at least 2-3 hours appreciating beauties online).

So if you also share the same problem of sundays and looking for some interesting weekend reading may be i can help you.

Gone are the days when i absolutely like a maniac used to wait for sundays. When i had a list of things to do.

From watching a my favourite Tom and jerry cartoon to visiting my friends.

From eating 'GolGappas' on a 'thela' to watching a newley released hindi blockbuster . From painting to playing pranks on friends.

From going out early in the morning for cricket sessions to staying up late watching Dravid and Sachin smashing bowlers all around the park.

Sundays had a different meaning for me. It was different from MOndays , tuesdays and wednesdays

But with changing times Meaning of Sunday has also changed. Sunday no longer is a 'FUN'day...now i 'Fear' sundays...Sundays makes a small town person like me realise how small i am. when all i have is my laptop resting on my inflated belly to give me company.

No matter weather you are a suvccess or a  failure there is a sense of insecurity in everyone. all the days of the week we are surrounded by people but sundays makes us realise that we are lonely hunters,and gives us false hopes taht somewhere a feast will be laid for us too. 

In big cities no one is quiet but many are lonely ... in the small towns, people are quiet but few are lonely. People look happy cheerful outside as correctly shown in the movie 'Life in a Metro'.People appear always happy, and good at what they do, but what we never realize is, they are damm good actors too and experts in faking.

They say 'Khaali Dimmag Shaitaan ka Ghar' ....Sundays allows Bakwaas Thoughts to creep in mind.  

Contraray to popular percepton i never have Monday blues blues.in fact i wait for mondays thanks to Dull sundays. 

Never hold strong opinions about things we don't understand fully.People see things differently, there's no denying that...one individual may perceive Sunday in a completely different way than i do.

But this does not means its all fun lost for me...

good things about Sunday is i can take a late night satuday night bath. :P

Sunday Morning is an opportunity for anyone who is ready to take a break from our drinking culture and find out what life is like without a hangover.

Sunday is a opportunity to get rid of stalking your ex online . I know its difficult but certainly not impossible.:P

Sunday means Maggi Day and break from routine Dal Rice.

Sundays gives us opportunity to look back in retrospect and correct our mistakes. 

Sunday means escape from brushing teeths and bathing.( thanks to late night saturday bath)

Chalo I am going out for a leisure Sunday Walk and for a GolGappa Session(Old Habits Die Hard).

Hope it has been a fantastic weekend for everyone!

Your Views on Sunday are most welcome.

Take Care

Hi Again !

Its Exam time again!...Late Nights Mugging up sessions, Late night Maggi wid Chai
I Hated exams since i was a kid. Proves i was a very normal kid .Many Things have changed in me i do not like milk any more,i don't like excercising anymore i have started to hate bollywood more than anything else now thanks to Salman Bhai. One thing howver is still the same my absolute hate for exams. 


Been off the blogging arena for two months now !  place which used to be my escape route from a artificial world.


Reason 1: Absolutly noting to express. 
Reason 2: MBA.
Reason 3: imdb.com (Cynical cinema buffs...Hollywood and french cinema which has been churning out quality movies at amazing speed keeps me hooked )


Sometimes i think MBA? What after MBA...The closest to acceptable answers are fat pay cheques and network of friends (at least i think so). If grades are any indicator of the cheque's flab, mine is bound to be severely malnutritioned. And networking :( Being a introvert rarely helps. Being an introvert in an extroverted world is a 'Sin'..i must tell u. 
I travel with the crowd that throws huge heavy words like ‘civic sense’ and ‘etiquette’ in a split second. The crowd that changes colors like a chameleon. The crowd that does “upar neeche” with the friends without the slightest of hesitations.The good old times were so bloody different.


Chulbul 'Robin Hood' Pandey is taking the market by a storm, a tsunami rather. cheap, sleazy, double-meaning flicks with a difference works for salman. Everybody around is going gaga about him...Salman Bhai Salman Bhai ! Wondering How Ra-one and Don2 will fare at the box office...what is apna Aamir bhai upto these days?


Indian Cricket Team i hear is doing wonders in England...HAve no Television here. Friends and cricinfo however keeps me updated. Heard Sachin sehwaag and other eleven players are injured ... and i always thought england is a club team. We are world champions in true sense.


On Personal Front i am Bored of living life.Bored of lving away from my family...away from my friends. I remember the day i completed my engineering i was dying to go out and explore the world. But i realise now lack of interference, living on your own terms, calling your shots in the day today activities...one does feel powerful and like a free bird but this euphoria only lasts for a while.I"ve moved into a phase where Friends are getting busier in there own lives and i am tiered of partying aimlessly  on the weekends. This i believe is the most vulnerable phase in my life topped up with financial or personal turmoil.
Life has become Hectic(Read Boring), 'Pressure' is the word of a average day. 


LAst two weeks however were amazing. Was back in Mumbai-The Mayanagri .City full of life and exuberance, a city that never sleeps.  Friends came down from B'lore and i was back in being usual me.Hanging out with friends. Sight Seeing which i usually find boring was exciting this time. GAteway ,Marine drive...Bandstand were looking more beautiful in Mumbai Rains. I fell in love wid Mumbai all over again.

Signing off now...have my internals from tomorrow ! Pray for me, stay healthy and most importantly Cherish your family and friends as you never know when they are gone forever.  Tadaaaa !!!

Confessions of an Average Facebook User

I was reading an article somwhere in TOI .
The highest population in 2058 will be in
India ( Yay !!)
China
Facebook ( Clap Clap )


Life In Facebook is exciting indeed, however thanks to some people it has become more of Exhausting than Exciting..


These are just few aspects which really piss me off every single time, the extent of being pissed off can't be expressed in words...i feel like abducting the person,torturibg him/her the way he/she has been harassing me with his/her status messages and them amputating him/her.
Let me give u a insight into what goes into the great mind of a average facebook user


1) Those who put Ultra-sentimental status messages(SM) every now and then:
You must have surely come across some SMs( and have posted those SMs on your wall) like. "I am broke and the one who broke it can only fix it" or "tears from my eyes in which she gazed once".


Yawn !!! (I know its not polite but atleast its honest)


All I can say is, get a life(or atleast, spare mine),
 Just imagine, even,in the days of deepest gloom and despair, they don't forget to google "emotional/sentimental quotes" , and then Ctrl+C & Ctrl+V directly to their respective SM boxes.


2. Those who alway cry


OMG, I am badly fucked, my life sucks etc etc.


Serious suggestion: why just dont you jump from the 27th floor of any building and see what happens. you can always share your views thereafter at your very own comunity "mylifesucks@wesuck.com"


3. Those who use excessive high sounding english words in their SMs


Yeah, I am talking about those who write "scintillating,scintillating asteriod minim" instead of twinke, twinke little star as their SMs


Brother try your hands at GRE not on FB. apart from that, I sincerely hope that you screw these exams so badly that forget STANFORD, even SARLA BAI INSTITUE OF CERTIFIED SUCKERS deny you a degree.These guys deserve the standing ovation of my middle finger.


4. Those who keep optimistic SMs no matter what.


No matter whether they failed in 2 out of 5 exams or got 27.24%ile in CAT, their SMs will still be something like
"someday sun wil shine just for me and i will rule the world"
(ok ok, got it, you are talking about the DAY when India will win the WC football defeating BRAZIL 10-0)
or some thing like"I am just waiting for the right time and right place"
(Sure...Cya, next millenium on planet jupiter)


5. FB Application users. 
( Prayer time: Dear god, please confer me the golden oppurtunity of hanging these guys till death so that my soul can rest in peace)


a)Worst is DAILY HOROSCOPE Every morning, when I sign in my FB account, the 1st thing is their horoscope only.These people should be buried 11 feet under the ground ALIVE and while burring them, their daily horoscopes should be read loudly.



b)"XYZ has new answers to unlock" application. 
When you unlock these "do or die" rated questions, you will come across questions like
a. do you think XYZ should do laundry more often.
b. do you think XYZ should wear tight clothes.
c. do you think XYZ has a funny looking nose.
etc etc.....( 15-20 Qs like these)
I am damn sure, none of XYZ, me or you or, as a matter of fact, even the Aborigines of Western Australia are anyhow bothered about it.
What for these guys, well, nothing special, just rub their skin with sandpaper and then soak them in lemon juice.In between pull out their body hairs with a rusted pair of tweesers followed by fingernails and toenails. in the end burn them they are the real messangers of SATAN.


c) "How true is your love" application, when I played this game( or whatever it is), i got 98% (career best performance).I was smiling sheepishly coz it was true
30% for gargi
20% for neha 
35% for swati
13% for shruti
When I was a kid my mom use to tell me that there will one such beautiful day when someone very special will land up in your empty heart and will make your life worth living.But this smile was short lived coz when girls play the same game( or whatever it is) and get the same score, they also smile sheepishly as it is true for them also
30% from vineet
20% from sonu 
35% from Rajesh 
13% from anil
"please note that dese days, vineet, sonu, rajesh,anil can be replaced by vineeta,sonia, rajeshwari and anita also.....changing times u see"


and by the way,what role i play in Facebook...well...i am just a facebook stalker who is 24*7 hours online, rarely comes up with any updates but keep himself abreast with all the updates around.In short, Active Nonparticipating Facebook user...

Sinfully Single !

Draped in my favourite Black Tee and faded jeans, Put on my favourite Deo,combed my hairs 45th time and checked myself again in front of the mirror for one last time. Rating myself 20 on 10, I eventually geared myself up to meet the fairy of my dreamland *******( Keep on Guessing )

Was waiting for her near Baristaa , with a “U R THE ONLY ONE FOR ME” card and few Ferraro Rocher chocolates. It’s been the 10 minutes of sheer excitement and desperation with lot of things going across my mind (typical guy I am, Supremely Nervous yet excited ).

Anyways, she finally arrived and did I mention how gorgeous she looked. She was wearing those ultra simple Salwar Kurta with her hairs flowing in tandem with each of her steps. She reminded me of those classic khajuraho sculpture whch they show in movies .

She came closer to me, said, you are so cute and brushed a kiss on my cheeks. Thereafter I took her to one of the coziest (and costliest) of the restaurants to have our candle light dinner.....

blah blah blah blah

Yes u got it, its has never been my story but this has been the story I have watching a lot around these days. Sometimes it’s so frustrating to see this that I feel like joining Bajrang Dal or Shivsena and then do all those patak patak kar pitaai to all those new bees

Well my story is like yours. I am single and probably romantically challenged. My story has been of a guy who is standing in the platform of a railway station where lot many trains arrive and go. Though I am quite choosy about the peculiar train I am looking for, I must say whenever I choose a train that train always gives me a waitlisted status which never gets confirmed in due course of time. Sometimes there have been circumstances when I just felt that this time it may get confirm, but then suddenly in the last moment some guy with VIP quota grabs my seat. Worst is the Taltkal ticket holders, who come to the station the very last moment, make extra investments that you can’t afford and then swipe your seat just below your feet. In  a way trains never come on the platform we stand on.

However, being single is not that bad. It has its own perks...Whenever I see a new train coming, more elegant and blissful, I feel glad that I didn’t take the last train. Adding to that, it feels good that still, all the trains are equally available to me. Needless to mention, these days passengers and trains are changing each other so frequently that you just don’t know that when you are going to hit the jackpot.

But since this is life and my train is like super late (probably derailed), I have decided that I will check out all the trains that are coming across. I will also fix my eyes on following facts :

1. Which passenger gets which train 

2. Which train is carrying more than ne passenger at one time with both the passengers unaware of each other

3. Will do a SWOT Analysis

4. Which passengers have more than one confirmed seat and which seat they finally take?

PS: what a crap .... Happy Bachelor Life ! 

DDLJ Revisited !

Life has been totally changed from 90s to till ... but that time was awesome. DDLJ is one movie that rekindles my old childhood memories  :)

Boy meets girl, sparks fly, love blossoms, parents disapprove but finally true love triumphs. 

very predictable plotline transformed into the magical "Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge.In a phenomenon that perhaps defies explanation

We all at some point of time do get NOSTALGIC over this particular movie.With Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol in the lead, a crackling script and the rolling hills of Switzerland competing with the green mustard fields of rural Punjab, DDLJ, as the film is referred to, is a landmark.

It discovered one of the most influential leading couple in Hindi cinema.

Shahrukh Khan's character has left all males wanting to be him and all girls wanting someone like him.

Thanks to SONY and other channels We still watch this movie from time to time.

 A timeless classic, that will probably never be repeated !!!

Mumbai's Monsoon Mondays

His eyes suddenly open...He is surprised by his own loneliness. It’s the same room that he has woken up in for the past four years, the dampness and the bubbles on the corner of wall and ceiling as familiar to him as his daily dabba meals. His eyes flutter to his left foot, looking for his old hawaai chappal. Then to the right, at the cosy bed. 

He gives up and gets up, ignoring the protesting knots in his back.

And at once he realizes. He hasn’t been woken by the sunlight, most unwelcome to owners of east-facing bedroom windows. It’s the sound that has woken him up. Clattering on the tin parapet that the people below insisted on putting up last December. It’s raining.

He steps up to the window and waits for his eyes to adjust to the waking world. A few seconds pass before he realizes that it’s coming down so fast and heavy that the gray around is not his sleepiness but water, sheer water.

For the briefest second, he begins a smile, thinking the earliest conscious thought that occurs to a Mumbaiker during heavy rain. NO OFFICE ... NO SCHOOL! But the smile stops before it reaches his cheek corners and he realizes there’s an important meeting later in the day and an early morning chat with the boss to prepare. How’s he going to get to work in this downpour? He’d better carry an extra set of formal clothes, one part of his brain is already whizzing. And his hands reach for the side-drawer, groping in the musty darkness for the plastic shield for his mobile phone, lest he forget to carry it later. Survival first is the metropolitan mantra.

He should probably leave early to provide for any delays. There’ll be plenty – traffic jams, pedestrian shouting, late trains, buses negotiating puddles. As he leaves the room, his fingers brush the switch panel, turning on the light, turning off the fan and the mosquito repellent plug-in. Mid-automation, he swirls around. Even through the downpour, he can tell, the window opposite is shut. Funny. He could have sworn, it was open last night. Maybe she got up when it started raining and shut it. Maybe it was always shut. Maybe…

The doorbell rings and he rushes out of the room, all thoughts fleeing instantly. 

The monsoon is here and so is Monday.

Dil Kya Chahta Hai !

Focused. Thats is one thing I am not. My friend says, I am focused. I wonder. 

I am a jack of all trades, I try doing something new every few days. Some days its cooking, other days its working out, some other days, its reading, someday its writing, other days singing. And so much more. I am fond of doing many things. But I don't focus on a particular thing. Nothing.

I loose interest easily. That makes me a great explorer but it hampers me mastering anything. 

Except the Masters Degree I have. That too I guess has gone for toss. 

My mom said, 'education, you can never forget'. Somehow, I found out I have forgotten the subject I topped the University in. I couldn't recall solving simple sums. Yes, sums. Lack of practice may be. or Focus lost. 

I wronged my whole base of my academic life. I never crammed. I believed in understanding concepts- theory or practical. But I just couldn't recall the simple solutions of simple problems. And they felt like playing LUDO when I was the student.

There is no focus. May be, I don't want to focus. May be, I loose interest because I haven't found something that can keep my interest intact. probabilities. Lots of them. Talking of probabilities, I think I wouldn't remember how to solve a probability problem either.
