Like, why!

Of three things I am absolutely unsure. I try, but I fail to understand.

A. Why does anybody have to lie? And specially to the people close to you? Aren't they supposed to be the ones whom you can be completely honest with. You lie, either because you live truly pathetic lives or because you don't have the courage to take responsibility of your actions.
In any case, you need to get some balls.

B. Why do people act smart with the ones that put them in high respect. I have never seen anyone getting lame with ones they know, don't care about them. Then why on Earth would you act smart with the blokes who care about you. It's very annoying, really.
Set your priorities straight.

C. Why do people live their lives as per the actions of others? Seriously, what's the point in sulking about something that did not work out. Get up, get going. Having a crush is cool, with the whole, blood running into your cheeks, friends jumping around, getting dressed, blah blah. That's the fun part right? That seems cool. But I just cannot understand the crying in dark corners behind a love forgone, getting all depressed and going emo. Dude and Dudettes, like WHAT! Does it mean that your life is so hollow that the presence or absence of an external factor will determine the way you live it?
If things don't work out, let go. People make a big deal about it. I don't see what's the fuss all about. Shouldn't you be the one deciding how to spend your life?
Get strong, get a hold on yourself. Get a life.

I am.

I like to play around in the rain like no ones watching,
But that does not mean that I am stupid.

I like to believe that I can trust my friends,
But that does not mean that I am naive.

I like to meet new people and have a complete fun day out with them,
But that does not mean that I am slutty.

I like to let go easily when I see something as redundant,
But that does not mean that I am heartless.

I like to keep my secrets to myself,
But that does not mean that I am self absorbed.

I like to be opinionated over things that matter,
But that does not mean that I am a bitch.

I like to end a discussion with a 'screw it, cut it out',
But that does not mean that I am a pushover.

I like to wish things go well with me,
But that does not mean that I am selfish.

I like to believe that there are more impotant things than love in the world,
But that does not mean that I am pragmatic.

I might not be the most romantic person on the planet,
But that does not mean that I am cold-hearted.

I like to Not give a shit to what people who don't matter have to say,
But that does not mean that I am a narcissistic.

I like to belive that inspite of the world falling apart, I will still get through,
you think I must be crazy, I'd say I agree.

But then, will you survive, if you are not a little crazy?

Got this in the mail today. Makes up for one hell of a reading.

5 Minute Management Course:

Lesson 1:
A man is getting into the shower just as his wife is finishing up her shower, when the doorbell rings.
The wife quickly wraps herself in a towel and runs downstairs.
When she opens the door, there stands Bob, the next-door neighbor.
Before she says a word, Bob says, 'I'll give you $800 to drop that towel.'
After thinking for a moment, the woman drops her towel and stands naked in front of Bob, after a few seconds, Bob hands her $800 and leaves.
The woman wraps back up in the towel and goes back upstairs.
When she gets to the bathroom, her husband asks, 'Who was that?'
'It was Bob the next door neighbour,' she replies.
'Great,' the husband says, 'did he say anything about the $800 he owes me?'

Moral of the story:
If you share critical information pertaining to credit and risk with your shareholders in time, you may be in a position to prevent avoidable exposure.

Lesson 2:
A priest offered a Nun a lift..
She got in and crossed her legs, forcing her gown to reveal a leg.
The priest nearly had an accident.
After controlling the car, he stealthily slid his hand up her leg.
The nun said, 'Father, remember Psalm 129?'
The priest removed his hand But, changing gears, he let his hand slide up her leg again.
The nun once again said, 'Father, remember Psalm 129?'
The priest apologized 'Sorry sister but the flesh is weak.'
Arriving at the convent, the nun sighed heavily and went on her way.
On his arrival at the church, the priest rushed to look up Psalm 129. It said, 'Go forth and seek, further up, you will find glory.'

Moral of the story:
If you are not well informed in your job, you might miss a great opportunity.


Lesson 3:
A sales rep, an administration clerk, and the manager are walking to lunch when they find an antique oil lamp.
They rub it and a Genie comes out.
The Genie says, 'I'll give each of you just one wish.'
'Me first! Me first!' says the admin clerk. 'I want to be in the Bahamas , driving a speedboat, without a care in the world.'
Puff! She's gone.
'Me next! Me next!' says the sales rep. 'I want to be in Hawaii , relaxing on the beach with my personal masseuse, an endless supply of Pina Coladas and the love of my life.'
Puff! He's gone.
'OK, you're up,' the Genie says to the manager..
The manager says, 'I want those two back in the office after lunch.'

Moral of the story:

Always let your boss have the first say.

Lesson 4
An eagle was sitting on a tree resting, doing nothing.
A small rabbit saw the eagle and asked him, 'Can I also sit like you and do nothing?'
The eagle answered: 'Sure, why not..'
So, the rabbit sat on the ground below the eagle and rested. All of a sudden, a fox appeared, jumped on the rabbit and ate it.

Moral of the story:

To be sitting and doing nothing, you must be sitting very, very high up.

Lesson 5
A turkey was chatting with a bull.
'I would love to be able to get to the top of that tree' sighed the turkey, 'but I haven't got the energy..'
'Well, why don't you nibble on some of my droppings?' replied the bull. They're packed with nutrients.'
The turkey pecked at a lump of dung, and found it actually gave him enough strength to reach the lowest branch of the tree.
The next day, after eating some more dung, he reached the second branch.
Finally after a fourth night, the turkey was proudly perched at the top of the tree.
He was promptly spotted by a farmer, who shot him out of the tree.

Moral of the story:

Bull Shit might get you to the top, but it won't keep you there..

Lesson 6
A little bird was flying south for the winter. It was so cold the bird froze and fell to the ground into a large field.
While he was lying there, a cow came by and dropped some dung on him.
As the frozen bird lay there in the pile of cow dung, he began to realize how warm he was.
The dung was actually thawing him out!
He lay there all warm and happy, and soon began to sing for joy.
A passing cat heard the bird singing and came to investigate.
Following the sound, the cat discovered the bird under the pile of cow dung, and promptly dug him out and ate him.

Morals of the story:

(1) Not everyone who shits on you is your enemy.
(2) Not everyone who gets you out of shit is your friend.
(3) And when you're in deep shit, it's best to keep your mouth shut.

THUS ENDS THE FIVE MINUTE MANAGEMENT COURSE

I have decided to quit my job by the end of this month, officially. I love everyone in the team, but This is just not where I belong.

Missed fractions and accounts. Got to get back to where I belong.
But honestly, I couldn't have been happier about taking the job up in the first place. I know a lot of places where I lack, AND I realised, I am quite a 'keeping to myself when not in my age group' person. I used to find it really funny when all the sun sign theories would say that Virgos are shy by nature, I understand why, now.

I also realised that I like it when I am left to mind my own business and when I don't have to interact with team mates much. Not that I don't like them, but just because I don't like it if any one gets in my business. Like seriously, That totally pisses me off.

I also realised that we Do make friends at work. And the ones that stay around. I will miss catching up with Ismail and Sumit after work.

I will also miss all the lunch table discussions. I will miss Britannia.

I will miss the watchman uncle, the watchman guy and the pantry guys. They are all rockstars!

But, nothing over powers the fact that I will see the faces of my friends after a long while, have Saturdays off And maybe even study a while.

I am not mature enough to be working in media, not politically correct enough, not diplomatic enough, but heck, I don't even wish to be. Because then, that will not be me. It will simply be 'the girl who changed when she grew up and got a job'.

Change is nice, but I am not ready for it yet. I like being a kid, and I like it when it's okay to make a mistake and I like it when Neha and Kushi scream 'Kya hoga be tera!' and when Anurag slams the phone down in frustration (and then calls back :) ), and I like it when Ismail says, dude you are weird, obtuse and annoying, please don't Ever change, or I will kill you.


:)

Life's screw ups are so much harder to take when you don't know too many swear words..

Bleh..

Now this is what having a job does to you.
I was in the train, on my way to work, when this girl from my school got in. And it took me a while to realise she was there which was when I was sitting right opposite her. Now, I am a 100% sure she was my junior at school and it's been good 5 years since I last saw of her. There could have SO much to talk about. But then it hit me, there could be so much to talk about.

It was at this time that I realised, that I already have too much to say and listen for the rest of the day to want to have any more. Random voices started screaming in my head.
"Why the hell is my system hanging up!"
"Who has the edited pages? We don't have them! Call XXXXX!"
"Where have you saved the text file for this story!"
"Is the transcription done?"
"Arrey, when are you going to finish correcting the pictures!?"
"Has the page lay out been made?"
"Arrey what are you guys waiting for!"
"She's a COW!
"We don't have a good picture for this story.." *panic attack* Getty? nope, Startraks? Nope, Snapper!!? No. "Go through the CDs!! We can't put this picture up, she looks like a fucking retard in here"
"FUCK A DUCK! WHAT IS WRONG WITH MY SYSTEM!!"
"This is ridiculous.."
"Arrey, but who is this women?"
"Who has got the XXX page open!!"
"Where is the magazine gone!?"
"ARREY NO-ONES HUNGRY OR WHAT!"
*phone rings* "Babe, you will totally have to call me back later"
"Somebody please get XXXXX on the line!"
"AC ka temperature kam karo koi! It's fucking freezing in here!!!"
"SAAAAAAGAAAAAR!!!!"
"Listen, can you please bajao.."
"What are we doing?"
"We are so screwed"
"This guy is a fucking moron"
*bang!!* OWWW !!!! "Avanika!!! Don't pull an Avanika!!!!"
"Arrey laddo.. come here"
"FUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK !!!!!!!"
"MY SYSTEM IS TOTALLY DEAD NOW!! CALL XXXXXX!! NOW!!!!
"I WILL BREAK THAT BLOODY A/C IF YOU DON'T FIX THE TEMPERATURE!!"
"I am so screwed.." "tch.. bechari.." "XXXXX don't you irritate me!!!" "Don't yell.. this is office.." "XXXXX!!!!!"


And that was when I realised.. I had two choices:
a. I can have a good long conversation, long enough for the time it will take me to reach my destination station.
b. I can take in the serenity and prepare myself for the holocaust that is about to dawn upon me.
I chose the latter.

P.S. I love my office. And I love every single body in my team. It's not everywhere you get to scream "I AM SO FUCKED DAMN IT!!!!" to your chief.
:)

Also, if I ever catch up with this person from school (when I am not on my way to work), I am so speaking to her. She seems to have grown into a nice cool girl.
:)

Here are a couple of Hindi movies that should have been BIG hits. It's rather unfortunate they didn't do well at the box office.

Socha Na Tha- This is Imtiaz Ali's ( of Jab We Met)directorial debut. The movie is so nicely put, it makes you smile at the simplicity. But, alas! Both Ayesha Takia and Abhay Deol were infants for the film industry assuring nobody knew them and in turn went to the theaters to sneak peak.
Make sure you catch up with it the next time it comes on TV, or hell, get a CD.
Best Scene - Gaah! The movie is full of them!

TOTALLY RECOMMENDED.

Swades- I really can't get over the fact that this movie was not the kind of hit that it should have been. The scene with the guy selling the glass of water for 25 paise, and the one where Mohan Bhargav (SRK) goes to meet the farmer for lease made me cry. (And no, I don't cry at movies, last time I cried in a movie was while watching Titanic, and NOT when Jack dies, but where the mother is trying to put her babies to sleep when she knows perfectly well that they are all about to die)
This movie, I believe is by far the best work of Ashutosh Govariker AND Shahrukh Khan. MUST WATCH FOR ALL INDIANS.
Best scene - Scene with the glass of water, the other one mentioned above, the one where the elder folks mock him for being a brahmin and yet interacting with the folks of other castes whom they believe to be beneath them. I am a brahmin myself, and believe me you, we still have folks who think they are above and beyond everyone else for just one that reason. I think it's RIDICULOUS.

P.S. All my friends going to the US of A next year, WATCH IT.

Aamir - Although I was never really a fan of, what's his name, yes! Rajiv Khandelwal, I have got to admit, I had a new found respect for his acting when I saw this movie. It gave me shivers(and not in a good way!).
Best scene - The closing scene, where Aamir(RK) is smiling to himself despite the fact that he knows he is about to get blown away but, he is saving a lot of lives by giving up his own.

Aloo Chaat- I just saw this movie today. Although it's nothing extra ordinary, but I loved the way the story goes. Fun to watch and leaves you with a smile. Isn't that the purpose of entertainment?
Best Scene - The one where the firang is sun-bathing on the terrace and guys from the entire mohalla stand on their respective terraces and sigh. (lol, typical north indian mentality!)

Next take - Hit movies that make you wonder, like.. how!?!

Misha Barton's Believe it or not.
























And that's the whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat!!!!!! moment for quite sometime now.
:O

I realised, that no matter how many new people I meet, no matter how many new friends I have made; Neha, Kushi, Ashish, Alkash, Nimish, Sudarshan and Nupur are still the people that I can talk about for hours without having to recollect anything.

It's like, every single moment of my life spent with these folks is etched into my memory.
I guess that's what they mean, when they say, some people are friends for life. And no matter how far the distances be, or no matter how different situations are, they will ALWAYS be remembered in the heart.

♥♥!

There are so many thoughts running in my head right now. Like, it is crazy the way my head is spinning. And NONE of them are related to each other.
To begin with I had a very strange dream. It was like all the people I have come across in my life were put in a mixer and the mixer was running on full capacity.
Anyway, I also saw the promo of the new movie 2012, what I can not seem to understand is:
a. Why is everybody so scared about it already. And I will get back to this topic later.
b. Even if the world was to come to an end, why don't people just enjoy the time that they have in hand.

I want to watch Up . There is too much that I have heard about it.

Why is the weather so unpredictable. It's a burning day today, it might just be pouring tomorrow. I don't mind the rains, but the idea of global warming scares the living shit out of me.

Murphy's law is true genius. It is the single most genuine law of all the laws that we have.

September was by far the most horrifying month of my life, officially. October seems nice.

Why do men believe they are superior to women? It's ridiculous.

I haven't seen a single episode of Big Boss but from what I hear, it's crazy hilarious! Curse my job, there is never a day I step foot in my house before 9.

There is this cat that sits right outside my office, my colleagues call it fat-cat. They all love it (they are all animal lovers, talk about being a misfit). I want to put my foot under its belly, raise her above the ground and then kick her upwards in the air.

Are Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie together? I hear a different news everyday. I liked Jennifer way more than I can ever like Angelina. Brad Pitt is a complete idiot.

Girls are dying for Robert Pattinson. I think he needs to take a bath. I mean honestly, what's the fuss all about?

And oh, I read all the twilight books now, and I believe Edward is gay. Jacob was cool till book three, and then he turns gay too. And their daughter Renesmee,(who by the way kills Bella on her way out, and oh, Edward rips her uterus with his teeth to bring her out) is a freak.

Why can't people turn the taps off when they are not making use of it. It is very ignorant honestly.

And I think I was a little rude to Sagar unintentionally yesterday, I have to look after that.

And oh, it was my buddy Abhi's birthday yesterday. :)

Disclaimer: All the thoughts have been put down the way they appeared in my head, if you have a problem with that, I cannot help it.
That's about it for now. Got to get back to work.

There is nothing I like better than the fact that there are so many people around and that all of them have so many tales to tell. I really don't care whether what they are talking about is interesting or not. But at times, just the look that they have on their faces when they believe that people are enjoying their story is worth the effort.
And honestly, for me, it has never been much of an effort to like what one has to say. Whether it is Arzaan Khambatta's father in law, who is the sweetest Parsi old man ever by the way or Madhab, who is Aki Narula's assistant, and he was a complete sweetheart, and mind you, he was very very efficient, the uncle who run the 'Energy' stall at Churchgate, the gatekeeper uncle in my office (who is absolutely adorable), or even the guy who cut my hair at the salon.

I mean i seriously did not know much about the story of how Parsi's fled from Persia, only to come to Gujrat and make this country their home. They are not even allowed to marry outside their community which I think is crazy, and there are only 70,000 of them around the world. Or how the Energy uncle (as I refer to him jokingly), came all the way from this small town in Kashmir and how that place is like heaven..! I can practically picture the entire Kashmir with his eyes.

There is a story attached with everybody, it's just that nobody has the patience to stop and listen. And then we talk about how nobody has any time for any body. It's no big deal to listen to what someone has to say while you sip a soft drink, or how a cab driver gets some of the most annoying customers who give him a Rs 500 note early in the morning. How the hell will he have a change for that at the start of the day! People, please carry change while you travel.

And I absolutely adore the owner of this joint called, Britannia in town, which has the most scrumptious food that has ever gone down my food pipe. He must be more than 75 and he still take the orders himself. And he has a joke and small poem for everything!

Most of my friends tell me that it's absolutely lame of me to start talking and being nice to strangers and they find it really immature, and that is putting it nicely. (Stop acting like a dumb-fuck is what one of them says, man I hate that word, if anybody has guessed who am I talking about, please pass along the message). Honestly, I couldn't care less. I don't GIVE a fuck to what someone has to say. I love talking to these folks. There is so much to know, I mean I never knew the guy at L'Oreal can cut hair in three minutes time, until he told me about it, about 20 times, repeatedly.

Maybe, that is one reason why I hate to travel with any one, people are too judgmental, and they are too scared or rather ashamed of being stupid. What they don't realise is that there is no fun in life, unless you are a little crazy.

Life is much easier when you have some one to talk about something that you don't know already than to quiz over the issues of your life, or to listen to what your friends or family has got to say.

Call me crazy, but there is no way I will ever tell Energy uncle to shut up, or my gatekeeper uncle to not tell me, 'it's pouring real bad, better carry an umbrella' when I can make that sense on my own, or the little kids who sell stuff on trains to stop talking, or the rickshaw uncle I once had a conversation with while I was waiting for a friend. (Who was a good forty minutes late)

It's things like this, that life is made up of after all. Isn't it?

Okay, here's the deal. I m sitting in my office and I am out of work (only for this little moment though - believe me you!)

Anyway, back to the topic. Here's one myth I -so- want to be busted and I will do it myself. Just because a girl has black nail polish on, it does not mean she is satanic, goth, emo or agnostic. She has it on, because she likes it. Simple. I don't understand what is so hard to not understand in that. Tch.

Last night, i was practically struggling to decide which nail paint to put on. Since my nails are chopped and eaten up (gross, I know. Gaah.) anything that I put on was sure to look insanely hideous. I do it anyway. I m pro at insane by now.
:D

So, I start looking for the colours that I can apply. All the shades in pink and lilacs are straight out because they just don't work for me.
Bright colours are in at the moment so I decide to put something bright as well.

I skip the green because I have long thin fingers, so green would make my hands look like a newly shed tree with five branches and one leaf each.

I don't even look at silver or grey (Grey is my favorite colour, apart from black and white) since i did not want to end up looking like 'Lady deathstrike' from X- Men 2.
for those who don't know about her. There.

http://sitemaker.umich.edu/psy457_tizzle/files/1.jpg

See what i mean.

So, green is out, and so is Grey, yellow looks like the loose motion shit (I will oblige by not giving a pictorial representation)

Black is way too common, and I hate having anything in common. (Call me a snobby bitch, I couldn't care less)

White, hmm.. I somehow felt like an elf when i applied white. There is no intelligent explanation to why I felt that way, I just did. So that's out.

I finally zeroed down to blue, just because that was the only one left.

- I HATE APPLYING NAIL POLISH ON THE RIGHT HAND!-

So anyway, after having fought a battle for the application, I was finally happy with the way it looked. Yaay.

And oh, today in train, i forgot to carry my headphones, so i chipped all of it off for passing my time. Blah.

We all have friends.

We all have friends, and friends come in all sizes, shapes, nature and maturity levels. The difficult part is how do tackle the certain issues that our friends may have. After all, at the end of the day, nobody is perfect. So what do we do with the girlfriend who can’t stop to gossip, or the friend that has to do everything we do, or the one that can be extremely critical and cold?
Here are some kinds of people that we come across everyday:

1. The Gas-bag:
They are the ones who know what everyone is doing, where, how and with whom. In opposition to the common assumption, the truth is that guys can gossip way more than girls. So if we have a friend who loves to gossip what do we do? Guilty as we maybe, but we cannot deny the fact that its always fun to hear a piece of gossip about someone (anyone!) to pass your time. But when the object of discussion is you, it can be very stingy. The best thing to do is to NOT let this friend of yours share a piece of gossip with you as well. Tell them it’s not very kind to invade people’s privacy because what goes around comes around. And remember, you might also want to keep some of your secrets to yourself even though they are your best friends because you always run the risk of having the world know about it.

2. The parents:
They are not your actual biological parents. They belong to the same age group as you but have a deep rooted desire of parenthood, which is not bad though, which they want to fulfill with you. They have all the solutions to your problems, the problem here: it seems like you are talking to your mom. It always gets a little difficult to actually open up with them no matter how close they are to you, considering the fact that they think on a level beyond yours and tend to get preachy. Now, if you have a problem where you would want to take advice from someone mature, they are the perfect folks to reach out to. However, you’d rather bury your face in sand than seek their advice for a childish or teenage everyday problem. For e.g., ask them whether or not you should go out on a date with that music guy, and watch them flip out.

3. The ‘Too close for comfort’ friends:
This is a very common problem. Now, we must understand that people who have been friends for ages will be curious about what is going on in the lives of each other. They will be best friends with your mates and the hosts of all your parties. However, some friends might forget to draw the line. They are the over enthusiastic friends who want to know everything that goes on in your life. Right from what you wore on your date, to where you went, what you had and whether or not you kissed. There is no other way out for that situation. You have to take a firm stand and tell them to take a step back because you would like some privacy, but make sure that you say it nicely, because remember they question because they care.

4. The critics:
These are the friends that will show no mercy if they see you do something wrong. They can be very judgmental and critical. They are the ones who are so straightforward that it actually hurts and always manage to see the errors a machine can skip. They are the ones who will tell you not to fool around with that moron, rather coldly, because they do not see anything good coming out of it. They are the ones who will ask you to stop missing on to college and work because you can not get enough of your enjoyment. They are your well-wishers, but they can annoy every nerve of your body. The best way to deal with them is to probably not argue with them, because frustrating as it maybe, they are usually right. You can ask them to be a little less critical, as chances are that they may not even realize they are being mean.

5. The copy-cats:
They are the ones who will do everything you do. You like that top, they like it too; you take those classes, they take it too; you do something and they want to do the exact same thing. Although it might be flattering initially, it is never fun to watch your identity and individuality being taken away almost literally right under your nose. It is very difficult to deal with them because there is no easy way to ask them to stop being your Xerox copy without sounding rude. The best thing to do in this case is simply to make sure you don’t talk much about your plans with them, just in case they mend theirs too. Help them discover what they like, what they want to do and give them a lot of space and freedom even if they are your BFFs.

6. The private ones:
They are the exact opposite of the ones who are too close for comfort. They could be the best friend you can ever get, yet they seem to be aloof at most times. What you have to understand is that they have hearts warmer than you think and emotions that are very tightly controlled. Give them the right outlet, and they can make a really fun company. Take them to movies, take them to places with a lot of expression that will help them open up. You know that friend of yours who will never talk about the problem to you but rather sulk, or the friend who is all happy go lucky but can be totally out of scene on some days, or the one who seems like something is always worrying her, chances are that something really is. Give them time, don’t be pushy. They probably don’t like to discuss their problems so there is nothing to feel bad about if they say they don’t want to talk about it. They value what you have to say but are generally afraid of what they might have to hear.

It is almost impossible to find a friend who fit in to all your expectations. And come to think of it, not having any single one of these can be pretty annoying too, or else, who will you ask about what to wear on that date of yours, what assignments you need to do, if the guy or girl you like is single, whether you should take that class up or not and what to get your parents for their anniversary. As they say, we all have friends.

Here's a list of things that i want to do before i die.

1. Bungee jump from a plane, or helicopter.
2. Cliff diving, from the rock into the ocean. no ropes, nothing to hold on to.
3. Exploring a forbidden cave, and no, not with torches or lanterns, but with a burning log of wood.
4. Exploring a long forgotten place, some place where you wont find people going.
5. Riding a classic old rickety bike on a thin road, amongst trees, in the rain. :)
6. Being in a shack in Scotland, with fire burning in the fireplace, hills and rains outside the window, coffee in my hand.
7. Doing the same thing as above, on the icy peek of a mountain, with a bonfire.
8. Riding a bike right through the sea.
9. Visiting at least 10 different countries, meeting their folks, eating their specialties.

Homosexuality is legal in India. FINALLY!
Although there are still fellowmen who think its dampening our culture to let something like homosexuality be legalized. These blokes should just be asked to mind their own businesses. Seriously. And then there was this interview by Baba Ramdev where he was talking about how we should try to turn homosexuals into heterosexuals by trying to push them towards the people of the opposite sex. This man, with all due respect, should stick to yoga.

For all those who did not know about it, according to article 377, homosexuality was a crime and the person in charge could be, as much as sentenced to 10 years of jail. All hail to the rules of the largest democracy in the world. Hypocrisy at its best eh.

Anyway, it must be a good news for all the people in concern. Congratulations you guys. And for the government, thank you for finally understanding the meaning of democracy.

And for all the people who have a problem with it, mind your own business will you. I don't reckon anybody whether gay OR straight would even want to hit on you.

Break-ups are a part of every freaking teenager alive. Yep we have all been there, done that. Its more like, we eat, we drink, we sleep, we hook up, and we break up.
So how do you know what to do once you have broken up with your guy? Well, it totally depends on the type of break up you had.
# 1 – The mutual break up:
Well let’s just face it, this type SUCKS. You are left with no reason to dislike the guy if you still are not over him. The biggest mistake girls tend to make in this category of break up is to TRY to be strong and cool about it. But to be honest that is just not happening. You feel suddenly single, directionless and lonely. I guess this is where the human anatomy did wonders by creating this thing called a ‘shoulder’. So go ahead grab a girlfriend and there you are. Cry it out. Don’t try to befriend you ex the next day itself and take your time out. Since its mutual, getting back as friends is the easiest as nobody feels duped.
Songs you can listen to: Coldplay- Fix you.
Oasis- Stop crying your heart out. :D
Led Zeppelin- The Rain Song
death cab for cutie- lack of colour
# 2 – He cheated on you break-up:
OK. Let’s get the facts straight. This guy is a LOSER. He does not deserve you in the first place and you should be rather glad he out of your life. And if the girl he is going out with knew about it she deserves him. The biggest mistake that girls make in here is crying for a spastic moron who is totally not worth it. You can have two possible reactions to this, if you are the sweet girlie girl- ignorance is bliss, but if you want to get back to him (which in every way you should) make his life hell I say. Dress up to kill and let the loser know what he missed on to. Stalk him if you have to and make sure the bi*ch does not have a good time ever again. Flirt around and get the life you lost while you were dating him back. Don’t miss on the fun. Let the devil in you rise to power. ;)
Songs you can listen to: Kelly Clarkson- Never again
Kelly Clarkson- Since you have been gone
Beyonce- Irreplaceable
Hillary duff- Stranger
Rihanna- Take a bow
Simple plan- Your love is a lie

# 3 – He is just not into you:
This can be one of the harshest break-up for the girls. Even though we appreciate the honesty of the guy when he says that he just does not feel the same way anymore or that he is not into you its still sucks. The biggest mistake that girls do in this break-up is to put the blame on them. How many of us have felt that there is something wrong with us and that is the reason why it ended the way it did. In reality, that’s so not the case. You should just understand that you were not symmetrical at a level and it was the best to break it up than to drag it around. So cry as much as you want but don’t loathe yourself for it. Try not to see his face for a million years and take your sweet time.

Songs you can listen to: Audioslave- I m the highway
Take that patience
Good charlotte- Hold on
Linkin park- Numb (teehee.. no I m just kidding)
Death cab for the cutie- Lack of color
Switchfoot- You.

# 4- You dumped him.
Alright so you couldn’t take the relationship and ended it by yourself. You don’t have to feel like a bitch coz it was in your best interest. And just so that you know that’s one of the toughest thing to do and requires a lot of courage so just breathe. There is only one thing you can do and that is try not to be around him for some while. And flirting with other guys in front of him is an absolute no-no unless you want your ex lover wanting to shred you to pieces or maybe feel like a loser. Remember how you felt when you were dumped by your guy. So show some respect.

Songs you can listen to: Not that you need any but yet following make a good option:
The OC soundtrack- Honey and the moon
Anna Nalick- Breathe
The Fray- How to save a life.

And if you had a strange break up which doesn’t fall into any of the above category please let us know about it.

Here is a list of questions that always makes you wonder why?

1. Why is it that the pretty chicks always date ugly guys?

2. Why is it that the smart chicks always end up liking taciturn loser type of guys?

3. Why is it that the smart hot guys always end up with stupid girls? The kind that if, they get there skulls x-ray-ed they will find a peanut inside it.

4. Why is it that all the profs that walk out of the class saying that they will never teach us again come back shamelessly the next day?

5. Why is it that when we are totally pissed things just find a way to screw up further?

6. Why is it that every time we are watching TV something ..well.. lame pops up the moment our parents enter.

7. Why is it that a girl dating an elder guy is cool but a guy dating an elder girl gets raised eyebrows?

8. Why is it that we can manage to lose only 10 grams after weeks of work outs and gain 1 kg with an extra little meal?

9. Why do we always promise to ourselves on the first day of the sem to make notes and study from day one but always end up studying exactly 10 hours before the exam?

10. Why do we always trip, fall or embarrass ourselves in any way possible only when our crush is around?

Bangalore City.
I absolutely love this place. For all the people who are a little weird and to themselves, Bangalore is THE place for you. People in Bangalore don’t care a ruddy darn rat’s poop to what the others are up to. Most of them are foreigners and good ones at that. The place is a paradise for shopoholics like me, given that all the brands are available inhere. You name it, they have it. The composition of the crowd goes like this- 50% of the people are folks from the other asian countires, rest must be an equal mix of foreigners and Indians.

The best things about Bangalore:
1. Nobody will stare at you (precisely your legs) if you are wearing shorts or hot pants. (well, apart from some paanwalas)

2. This is one place where people can actually walk and sit around casually with a beer pint.

3. People are friendly. either they will not bother you at all or they might as well want to give you company. So if you are sitting at a coffee shop or by the lake (in my case), people won’t just sit and stare, but they will actually have the guts to approach. (moulisha, sid, spandit and ranveer-:) )

4. Pub culture is fun yet, most of them are a little reserved.

5. The weather is awesome, cold in the morning, warm in the day time, breezy and windy by the evening and cold at night. Perfect.

Best place – Brigade road.
I m gonna miss being in the city. And I m gonna miss the friends I got there. (Wow, I don’t think I even deserve you guys in the first place, really.)

Oh, by the way, the rikshawalas suck. They charge any crap for moving an ant hole. Buggers.

here is a list of bizarre incidences that take place due to this certain phenomenon called love (or infatuation). And all these are true people. No kidding.

1. my super practical friend is now a coconut overflowing with the water of emotions. she now talks about love, bliss, serenity, blah! eh?

2. my super romantic friend totally chickens out in front of guys and has difficulty in expressing herself.

irony.

3. this one chick that i know has a spine of steel is the most fragile and delicate human being alive when shes with her guy.

4. this guy i know, who had an abstinence from spending a single penny on waste earlier, has been winding money like crazy for indulging his girlfriend. eh? little does he know hes making an absolute fool of himself.

5. the most egoistic people on the planet can take a lot of crap coming from the people they love. eh?

6. a friend of mine who is very close to being barney from how i met your mother is the most devoted, caring boyfriend ( sure, he pretends to be, barney like i said.) and for worse - she falls for it. there's a competition for who's more bizarre in here.

7. doing things you hate for the person you love.

8. giving up things you love coz you know your guy/ girl hates them.

9. trying to be what your guy / girl wants you to be rather than being yourself. now people, if this really IS the case you need to clearly set your priorities straight and judge your relationship.

10. dressing up in the cloths that your partner likes you best dressed in. (hmm. sweet)

11. my mom always tastes the food she serves to dad just to make sure he will like it the best even after years of marriage. (aww..)

its crazy what this thing make us do right. this love, infatuation, crush or whatever it is we have. :)

'XOXO' is crazy stupid! no literally..!

why cant people just write love ya.

totally lame!

The EMO culture.

Here's a little something I read about EMOs one day : A person described as "emo" (falling under certain behavior mannerisms and attire correlating with the subculture) will often be from a comfortable, middle-class background with understanding, pleasant parents. All of this is irrelevant to an emo who will consider themselves misunderstood and repressed regardless of reality.

The emo girls just want to get a new hairstyle and the guys, an excuse to behave like girls.

I personally believe that EMOs are nothing more than wannabe punk rock fans who have been unfortunately, given cell phones and love to take their pictures from different angles (My condolences to the respective necks), most popular location - their bathrooms with the view of the commode in the back, to put them up on Facebook, Orkut, Myspace etc. Very lame.

Some of them pretend to have stemmed from goth culture but I personally hold the opinion that they have more in common with the next door bisexual guy having candy floss than goth.

Let us now look at the basic demeanor of EMOs:
1. They all have dark eye make-up, more of an out of GRUDGE auditions look.
2. They all seem to have an "one- eye haircut" which THEY think creates an illusion of them having only one eye. Maybe because they only want one side of their face showing.
3. They tend to wear extremely tight clothes which makes it difficult to determine whether it's a male or a female from distance.
4. Smiles are non existing and random hand gestures look plain stupid.

These emos on a general day are absolutely normal people who will hang out with friends and have a good time. I think the absurd and bizzarre behavior sets in once they find a camera. Or you can find the hardcore emos in some lonely deserted corner of the street trying to get attention by putting on an 'I don't give a shit' (I see the irony, yes) expression since well, nobody seems to "understand them". They talk to animals and make them too sad to breathe.
