Somebody's big fat Indian wedding...

2006-06-20T04:53:00.000-07:00

Its weird enough to be attending the wedding of someone you dont know. Its even more weird tobe hanging to your "saasu maa's" pallu all thru the wedding.Boy I dont want to list out the number of weird things related to me ...the idea is to talk aboutthe wedding in general.So here it goes ...
Indian wedding -- so what does that translate to ? A lot of colors, big fat round aunties all cladin silk sarees while their stinky , nose digging children are running around like little rats ina maze! Most of these aunties barely have absolutely no idea of who the bride and the groom are......they are here to arrange a little rendezvous for their own son/daughter/nephew/niece/cousin/neighbours daughter/uncle's friends grandmothers sisters brother....... The perfect occasion to be lookingaround for gullible young things..."oh doesnt she look pretty...jus perfect for XYZ" --(notice aunty hasnt spoken to pretty thing, has no idea whether this pretty "thing" is infact aliveand kicking or is a manequin to b hung in stores) All aunty knows is that she is looking out fora well dressed, good looking girl.(God, I cant thank you enough for having rescued me from all this!!)Then there are those aunties who are just not satisfied by "looking" at PYT (pretty yound things)..they need to have a conversation - helo beta....how are u ? fine aunty ...(errr do i know u?) so, there is this guy who is my sister's husband's cousin's best friend's brother's uncle who is about marraiageable age....he is very smart...blah blah Err...(SOOOOOO ? Is there any neon sign over my head sayin i am desperate to get married ?) What have you done beta ? XYZ has done his diploma from Ramkrishna society for the dyslexic....he is working as a computer hardware repair man... Aunty, I have done my engg from the IIT's and am planning to do my MBA from the IIM. Oooh that is so gr8 ...u did u engg in computers, right ? XYZ also has done his diploma in computers. Now a days its sooo imp for couples to be from the same field,isnt it ? (grins at PYT - she finally got the pronounciation right this time) PYT has totally lost her senses by now, and excuses herself coz she needs to stop herself from fainting !!! Then there are all the rituals going around. The swami (or so he is called - and u seriously wonderwhy on earth they call him that....his unshaven beard, blood shot eyes, dhoti that was washed in the last century make him look like a criminal just escaped from Tihar jail) is holding the mic, screaming out something , am sure even he has no idea of what exactly he is reciting.He tries to be fast with the "shlokas" as possible, before someone realizes that he isnt saying -" pati devo bhava..." instead, he is saying "paise devoo bhava..."They make some 25 million women put the kumkum on the bride, until they have managed to make the bride look like she is the victim of a hit and run accident !!! (most of the cases, the bride actually is the victim , she has no clue what had hit her until she hears the screaming and screeching of a baby in her arms!!!!)
Erstwhile, you can not ignore the fat, round, bald uncles of the fat, round, silk sari clad auntieswho are filling their plates like they were told the world was coming to an end tomorrow. They mustbe the happiest souls in that god forsaken place..they dont care whats going around them , dont want to know where all the people around them are running - even if it means they are running out coz there is a fire at the place !! They have bigger priorities in life -- like finishing all the food on their plate !! These uncles whom you overhear telling little kiddies "stay away from too much ice cream, u will have cavities.." need to stuff every inch of the empty space in their bodies with free ice cream !!! If they had an option, they would have stuffed the void up in their head also with free food !!!!
Then you simply can not ignore the band ! Aaaah the band waala's....they play as if their guru was the devil himself. They were taught to slap the drums like they were the cheeks of an enemy, and to blow the trumpet like they were blowing their noses !!!

Additions coming up ......

You have to read about the events in Gaurav Sabnis' life.....and all because he posted HIS opinion ( which seem to b backed by hard facts I must say and seem to be very plausible too).

Hats off to Gaurav's guts !!!

It takes a lot more than courage to stand by your conviction.

Wat we do at work :-))

2005-09-15T05:52:00.000-07:00

Herez a conversation we had over mail !! Was hilarious,...

Jus to give u a background....
Sid is a guy......and Sa a gal... and u all know the one and only Nish :-)

Read from bottom up.....no pun intended ;-)

Well it’s nice to know that one of our clients have appreciated our efforts so far…. And it really speaks volumes about our service… well maam we have also thought of putting in mouth to mouth resuscitation….I am sorry……. Mouth to mouth publicity as one of our campaigns which are in the pipeline!!!
And regarding the freebies… they are free just for the reason that they are readily available….. We are trying to introduce new products in the market (v are still working tooth and nail to release them within this quarter………)
Although we have reported quite a few pregnancies of late amongst our customers after they have tried out our freebies and this is a matter of concern to us……….. although we are working on the same would be coming out with solutions pretty soon!
It takes a lot of investment to teach our employees u know (you wouldn’t want to know how we started!! J )…… they practice day and night just to make sure that even the quality of the freebies are of the highest quality!
Regarding other offers maam…. I would love if you could give us few suggestions on the services that you would require…. Then again please demonstrate the same on one of our marketing agents so that he is familiar with the requirements!!!
One of the offers which is heavily in demand is we should be sending agents of the same sex…… some say they can be more free with them…. Well not a problem, its our duty to train them properly and send them across.
Our ultimate goal is customer satisfaction!!

Ur fav company,
Casanova Enterprise Solutions.

From: Sa

KICK ASS conversation..:)
Man Sid...........U changing the concept of door-to-door marketing
If priceless commodities were so easily and pithilly available.............I wonder if the showrooms wud be rendered redundant after all.
Also, a good idea wud be to make this a FMCG (Fast moving Consumer Goods for the jahils)...so that even the women get ample choice.
But I must say am disappointed with the limited stock of freebies.
This is a note to the owner to realise that the commodities/freebies u offer are all too easily available( which implies men are a dime a dozen)
Please give value for money

---------------------------------------------------------------------

From: Sid
We work towards the betterment of the women folk out here Sa...! I have fixed an appointment with the client tonight…. for you…..make sure she is not disappointed!!
Also get to know the other women in the neighbourhood while you are there!! If you face any problems do not hesitate to call me…. The beauty of this firm is its transparency…… the owner himself obliges to come to the customers door!!

---------------------------------------------------------------------
From: Nish

Well…… Mr.Casanova ….umm….is that Casanova with a Chauvinistic C or a Cant stop braggaing C ??
First of all let me clear the fact that I don’t face depression of late , although u can say I hav been under some shades of depression off late :-p

And could I bring you wandering attention to the fact that you have quoted your price to b : hugs/kisses/dates.

I would suggest you refrain from distinguishing members of ConsumerRightsForum on the basis of external appearances……they can b deceptive and second of all…….we are not racists JJ

CEO ka full form was hilarious !!

Yeh gud humour ka virus toh nahi failya tere yahaan ? All of a sudden kaise I say ?? JJ

---------------------------------------------------------------------

From: Sid
Also If you have any beautiful and interesting … I mean interested females in your ‘Consumer Rights Forum’ then please give them my number…. I have a few openings……. I mean job openings……………………………………………………………………………………………………. ‘Jyaada samajh aa raha hai kya???” J

From: Sa
LOL
Very cute Sid .........not bad u improving too!!!!!!!!!
Sumit.sweetheart jago zara.....:)
---------------------------------------------------------------------
From: Sid

Hmm….. Quite a paradox really….. I wonder if this lady is suffering from serious bouts of depression of late………

Well as far as my customers being bimbos….. They would definitely not like it when they hear this, since one of them is already copied on this mail…. I would say take care!! …..
Speaking of price…..I haven’t mentioned about the price anywhere!!!
Since most of ur concerns are disentangled here, I believe you carry out an in depth survey on ur own survey.
The next time onwards please address this mail starting with Dear Sir, since you are directly addressing the Owner of this firm.
Any further issues will be handled by our new employee Mr.Su
Regards,
CEO (Casanova Enterprise Solutions!)

---------------------------------------------------------------------
From: Nish
Due to absolutely suboptimal communications regarding impacts of offers made (impacts on so called customers of the service offered) , the customers (which predominantly consititutes bimbos as per our survey) , it has been concluded that the service provider is charging too hefty a price for the poor quality and lowly information provided in return. Consumer rights forums have decided to sue the service provider regarding the same !!

Anyone cumin for a brk ?? chaloo

---------------------------------------------------------------------
From: Sid

2005-08-20T10:21:00.000-07:00

And it was the same ol' story again....
Those people called " We are coming to see your daughter. The guy has done blah blah and is working in XYZ company."Dad " Yea sure sure. wat time can you ppl make it ? Yea anytime over the weekend would be fine.My daughter would be at home"
When they are here, I am in my bedroom. Standing there listening to them talk.Not once have i heard an interesting conversation, not once have I been eager to walk out of the bedroom.
Its the same ol' conversation too !
" So, wat do you do ? Oh you work as a software engg. Oh oh, Yes Nish works in XYZ company. Its a very gud company . IT sector is booming right now .. "
I walk out , sit in the same freaking chair.....looking at the carpet.....thinking " hasnt it been ages since this carpet was last cleaned ? Then I try to smile.....I somehow manage to look at the people around....I cant look at them for more than 5 seconds......they seem to b staring at me and I hate people staring at me as if I am a silk sari on display in a mall giving a 50% discount !!! Then I look at the ceiling and wonder...why the heck wont my parents shift out from this place ? It needs renovation sooo badly !!
Then one of the people say " So, how tall are you ? "I wanna say .. Am 6 feet....oh, u dont believe me ? Why not.....I just dont look that tall without my heels on !
Then they say " So, what are ur hobbies ? "I wanna say .. I love listening to rock n sexy music....love dancing in the pubs...would luv to get drunk someday.....and maybe try smoking for my latest timepass......
They say " Dont you want to ask him anything ? Go ahead, ask .....dont b shy...ask ! "Thats the instant I wish I could actually say " So, Mr.XYZ how many girlfriends have u had ? How many illegitimate children ?? How many times have u had a one night stand ??? "
But I dont say any of that..... I dont say any of that..........

The things ppl say ....

2005-08-14T22:00:00.000-07:00

Like I had been shopping yesterday. Told the fella, gimme any 2 flavours of pringles. He looks at me and asks (very caringly n all)"So are these chips for kids or something ?" And I am like " WHY man, you got different flavours for different ages or something ? " Wat d heck eh ? " Or did I look like a mother of 15 kids to him ???? JEEEZZZ !!!! Wished I could punch the man sooo hard in his g**** !

ANd there was this time when I went shopping in a mall. A stupid kid thought my bag was hers and was tugging it. I aint the typical " oh aint that cute, shez sucha cute kid" kinda babe ! So I simply pulled my bag from the kid n gave the mom a blank look. As if she takin revenge her mom says " Tis ok , thats AUNTY's...give it bak to her." AUNTY ? Wat the fuk ?? Of all the things, I am sure I dont look like an aunty !!!! That woman looked like a freak show herself....who gave her the right to call others by that dreaded word ??? Grrrrr !!!

Oh and herez another time when I went shopping wid a coupla colleagues of mine. First of all, they turn up half n hour late and then jus walk off as soon as we enter the mall. They dispersed as if they had jus entered some treasure hunt competition or something. And I am like " halluu ? when u cum to shop, the idea is to spend time together and not to run around as if you hunting for a prey or something !? " Oh well, there was this oversmart nit wit in the grup. Thinks hez got a gr8 sense of humour n all. A friend of his asks him "So S, u still single eh ?" He looks at me n says " Yea man, Nish is the only one who doesnt even bother to respnd 2 me." And I am guessing dat by that statement he means I am the only one who doesnt find his jokes even a wee bit funny....i jus manage to give him the cold stare! Bah....he aint worth givin a cold stare to even ........>Please remind me never EVER to go out wid any of em again !!!! Wat a complete waste of time ( AND my precious MONEY too ! Sob sob !!) So how does this incident relate to the others u ask ? It doesnt ! !

Its all bout the money.... !!

2005-07-26T09:08:00.000-07:00

I dont love money......but I love the power it brings.
I dont like money....but the respect it gets you is soo desirable.
I dont think money is everything......but you can virtually buy anything and Everything with it.
I dont think money and power always go hand in hand......but therez no denying in most cases it does !

Him....

2005-07-22T05:41:00.000-07:00

I wish when he comes in my life........he brings a splash into my calm n serene life ..

.

I wish he adds color to my dull life..

Y ?

2005-07-12T05:41:00.000-07:00

Y do we live our lives trying to please someone other than ourselves ?? Y ??
Y do we seek approval for each of our actions ?
Y do we need someone else to appreciate our work, our efforts ?

If you know you are good, then why do we need someone else to put their stamp on it saying " Yes , you are good" ??
Dont we believe enough in ourselves ?? Is it the lack of confidence ? Or the simple crude desire to be applauded at ?

The things bosses make u do !!

Be Selfish.....

2005-07-05T04:45:00.000-07:00

Until I read Ayn Rand I was under the misconception that selfishness is a vice....
Ayn helped to clear dat off.

Selfishness is a virtue na !

Ever since you are a kid you are told not to be selfish, you are told to share, to give more, ...blah blah. But you know wat ? Tis more difficult to b selfish than not to b !

And its selfish people who know how and where to use their selfishness who move far ahead in life !! Its an absolute art.....being able to manipulate people in order to give them an impression that you care, yet havin a huge selfish motive behind the whole saga of happenings.

Think about UR motives, UR benifits, UR aim, UR wants, UR goals ALL the time...but never let the front person know what you are thinking bout.

Does that sound totally irrelevant ?? Let me explain - when a colleague asks you for help, or when a friend asks for a favour.....analyze "wats in it for U" ? If there is something you can gain from it...go ahead and do the task...while making it a point to let the person know that u helped him/her out! And if there aint much profit you can make from the thingie...refuse (politely of course!!)

Hummm....is that the right approach to life ??

hate em.....

2005-06-23T02:11:00.000-07:00

Ever noticed those ppl ?They are better.....in everything.......
screw those fukin morons !!
They have everything thats better than u got.....better brains, better looks, better attitude, better friends, better pay, better boyfriends,better cars, better houses, better everything everything !
Bet they even got better undies wid soft cushions n lovely flowers blah blah !!!!!
Hope those cushions wud help em when they fall so hard on their fat asses !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Darn show offs

why and who am I talking bout ?

Jus look around...they are everywhere !!!Tis like an attack of the sophisticated and the "haves"...... mebbe they aint totally bad, they must have worked to hav all they do.....but.....the point aint bout them.....tis bout ME... !!I want "EVERYTHIN" !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ru gonna keep count ???

Had been to watch Mr. n Mrs . Smith yesterday wid my friends.
Angelina Jolie looks like she has half of the fat from her ass glued on to her lips ......
ewww I mean, how can someone luve those pouted lips ??

So, neways that was not wat this post was to be bout...
Therez this scene in the movie in which he (Brad Pitt) asks her....
"So, wats ur count so far ? "
And she says coldly " 312 !! "

312 ?????????

Dat jus made me wonder wat my count would b a coupla years from now......
First of all...... I think my count wouldnt even reach the high 60's till the end of my life !!!!!!!!
Even if one looks as hot as she does, how can u do it so many times ?
Wouldnt it become like a routine job after the first 10 times or so ?? I mean......c'mon lets b honest here......therez "reaaaally" nuthin "different" u can do about it !!!

Assuming wat she said was applicable for someone of her age......she is 30....... and considering she started at the tender age of 18......... then.....she musta done it 26 times a year !! woha !!!

Ahem ahem.......but does math n logic apply in this case ?? hehehe !!!

My conundrum !!!!!!!!!

2005-06-11T10:42:00.000-07:00

There was a time when I went to the movies and saw Kajol n Sharukh fall in luve with eachotherwhile on a trip.....(do I need to clarify dat mez talkin bout DDLJ ?! )and I believed dats how I wud find d guy of my dreams too !Every trekking trip or picnic or outing I would go with my friends, I would be looking out forthat fella who would fall in luve wid me !!! I would flutter my eyelids n flash my cutest smilepossible.....but i guess it wasnt meant to happen that ways :-(Then there was a time when I thought I had become a lil more mature and so I decided it wouldnthappen while on a trip or something.....mite happen at college.....like Sharukh n Kajol in KKHH.So I was on d lookout for that guy who would b as cool as SRK in KKHH...of course my expectationsfrom "MY" guy had increased. Which might have been d reason for me not finding a single guyworth spending any more time than wat i wud waste on saying "hi.." . D college guys thought that was the only word in english i knew !!After that I decided I could live alone.....who needs a guy by her side anyways ??*khatte angoor*Then I thought workplace mein shaayad mature sa banda mil jayega who would b my Prince Charming. As darn luck would hav it.....the only guy I thought was cool was already taken ..*baallll*So, I guess I will hav to succumb to my parents n go the arranged marriage way :-(((But you know wats my biggest fear ? Mez half a southie....so how on earth will I introduce myhubby if hez got one of those "typical" southie names ???Like ... umm..... Basavarajappa Lingattappan sumithn sumithn ???I mean, nothin wrong with such names....except for d fact dat I dont like names that wud takehalf the nite to pronounce even :-(Oh , and if not guys with those kinda names, then there are those guys with such "common" names which will speak for them without even havin met them once... likeAnil is bound to b a dull fella wid no brains...Rahul is obviously gonna b the kinda fella who thinks he was d inspiration to SRK usin dat name in a lotta his movies...Vinay is without doubt the kinda guy who would hav a hard time spelling his name even !!
No offence to guys with any of those names, han !
Sigh...
kya hoga meri life ka ?????????? No smart guys (wid nice names n some brains on their head) go in for arranged marriages * sob sob*
Good GOD, if u listenin....then plzzzz spare jus one smart guy for me. HELLUUUU , take notice of this prayer already !!!!!!!!!!

women r better :-)

2005-06-07T05:59:00.000-07:00

This was a fwd, but tis worth a read.....

There was a man who had worked all his life, had saved all of his money, and was a real miser when it came to his money. Just before he died, he said to his wife, "When I die, I want you to take all my money and put it in the casket with me. I want to take my money to the
afterlife with me".

And so, he got his wife to promise him with all her heart that when he died, she would put all of the money in the casket with him.

Well, he died. He was stretched out in the casket; his wife was sitting there in black, and her friend was sitting next to her.

When they finished the ceremony, just before the undertakers got ready to close the casket, the wife said, "Wait just a minute!" She had a box with her; she came over with the box and put it in the casket.

Then, the undertakers locked the casket down, and rolled it away.

So, her friend said, "Girl, I know you weren't fool enough to put all that money in there with your husband".

The loyal wife replied, "Listen, I am a Christian, I can't go back on my word. I promised him that I was going to put that money in that casket with him".

"You mean to tell me you put that money in the casket with him!!!!?
"I sure did", said the wife. "I got it all together, put it into my account and wrote him a cheque. If he can cash it, he can spend it".

Women Are Smarter Than Men

Due to inherit a fortune when his sickly, widower father died, Charles decided he needed a woman to enjoy it with. Going to a singles' bar, he spotted a woman whose beauty took his breath away.
"I'm just an ordinary man", he said, walking up to her, "but in just a week or two, my father will die and I'll inherit 20 million dollars".

The woman went home with Charles, and the next day she became his stepmother.

Women's Revenge

"Cash, check, or charge?" I asked, after folding the items the woman wished to purchase.
As she fumbled for her wallet, I noticed a remote control for a television set in her purse.
"So, do you always carry your TV remote?" I asked. "No", she replied, "but my husband refused to come shopping with me, so I figured this was the most legal evil thing I could do to him.

Understanding Women (A Man's Perspective)

I know I am not going to understand women. I'll never understand how you can take boiling hot wax, pour it onto your upper thigh, rip the hair out by the root, and still be afraid of a spider.

Wife vs Husband

A couple drove down a country road for several miles, not saying a word. An earlier discussion had led to an argument and neither of them wanted to concede their position. As they passed a barnyard of mules, goats, and pigs, the husband asked sarcastically, "Relatives of yours?"

"Yep", the wife replied, "in-laws".

Words

A husband read an article to his wife about how many words women use a day... 30,000 to a man's 15,000. The wife replied, "The reason has to be because we have to repeat everything to men".
The husband then turned to his wife and asked, "What?"

Stupid and Beautiful

A man said to his wife one day, "I don't know how you can be so stupid and so beautiful all at the same time". The wife responded, "Allow me to explain. God made me beautiful so you
would be attracted to me; God made me stupid so I would be attracted to you!

The Beast

Husband and wife were in the midst of a violent quarrel, and hubby was losing his temper.
"Be careful", he said to his wife. "You will bring out the beast in me".
So what?" his wife shot back. "Who's afraid of a mouse?"

Shoppin......

Did you know that shopping actually works like a "thearpy" !!!
Yea, tis like a cure for those headaches you get thinking :
bout all the crap that doesnt even exist yet (but u fear will come to ya eventually),
bout all the crap that has already happened ,
bout all the crap that you are going thru rite now, and of course
bout all the crap that isnt really related to you, but you feel like thinking bout it neways !!
Aaah but shopping can just transport u to a land of joy.....tis like a boon......
which is why I simply picked up my wallet and went beserk shopping over the weekend...
Got myself umm... some 3 shirts........2 purses :-)) Though it aint distinctly bold or outrageous or anything , me thinks jute is simply royale in itself :-)
Whenever I carry my new n cute lil buddy (dont get ne pervert ideas :-D )

Flowers are jus the most beautiful things arent they ?
They can make you smile in a jiffy :-))
Ever seen a florist's shop early in the mornin ? All those beautiful flowers........with droplets of water on em that look like little diamonds , their soft petals , their gorgeous colors...... they are jus soo irresistible ! Tis almost as if those flowers look bak at you and smile --- a wide and bright smile that you unconsciously return when u see em :-))

So, next time someone is mad at you, or you want to say something more than words can say.......jus walk up to the florist and pick up those beauties .......they will do all the work for you! !!!!!

Blue Jeans White shirt :

2005-05-25T05:06:00.000-07:00

The other day, me and S were in the bus...goin shoppin. And we happen to notice this couple on thebike. The babe was wearing blue jeans and a white shirt. Was looking so cool ! Tis amazing how asimple pair of blue jeans and a clean,crisp white shirt can look hot !! Ofcourse a good figure cancarry off anything but (in S's words) Blue jeans and a white shirt jus cant go wrong !!And that must be the only combintation that looks equally good on both guys and gals.So, if ever in doubt.....go for this combo !Hav been watching that Lakme Fashion House thingie. Wow...the kinda clothes they design...Of course, sometimes they jus let their imagination flow too far..coz some of those clothes u juscant wear practically.....but then use a lil immagination for urself and am sure u cud end up usingmore comfortable yet more hip clothes !So, why all this talk bout clothes all of a sudden ?? Jus realized how much clothes speak of u. Hav u noticed some people can wear the simplest of thingsand make those clothes look sexy and hip ????
Soo....now that Lakme Fashion Week is over, and I have seen most of the chic clothes designed blah blah....I think I am totally qulified to pass on remarks on fashion.....even to advice / give some fashion tips !!Here goes :
1. If u got a long face like mine, wear dangly ear rings and leave your hair open
2. Wear bright clothes and expt with dark colors......dont b afraid !
3. Do NOT wear hip hugging jeans if u a guy/ if u got a fat ass ! Ever noticed how sick a guy looks when he wears tight jeans ?
4. Guys.....pink aint ur color !! Watever they might say bout men being metrosexual blah blah,.....pink jus aint for u !!!
5. Black honestly DOES make u look thinner !!!
6. Good accessories can entirely change your look and attitude !
7. If u wearing gr8 clothes n stuff.......keep ur hair also neat n hep.

And last but not d least......although it may sound like a cliche.....fact is...........if u got the ATTITUDE.......u can always look supercool........anywhere !!

2005-05-22T06:30:00.000-07:00

HELP MEEE !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Jeezzz !! I spent the whole weekend searching for a blog skin......thought this one was cute....
But now I hate it :-((((

It wont even accept the heading I enter for my posts .....

WOES ME !!!!!!!!!

Color DOES matter !!

2005-05-15T20:13:00.000-07:00

Was incredibly sceptical when I heard our company was gifting us t-shirts.......t-shirts to so many people ?? and that too for free ????
Wasnt expectin a Benetton t-shirt anyways....but this???
Su said "Be a sport - I will wear it too - u had better wear it tomm !" I said " I think tis a lil tooo bright....and red jus makes
you look silly !" No, he said.....wear it.....Afterall.....tis a gift from our company.
Yea, a gift from our compnay....
wonder wat provoked them to want to gift us all T-shirts !? But watever it was, doesnt seem like it was the best of intentions they had in mind while desiging the
T-shirts :-(
Picture this - a red t-shirt, with a grey collar and stuff written in blue n orange on it !!! Oh oh, and did I forget to mention there is a smiley on it in blue color wearin a yellow
cap ?!?!?! Wonder wat the ppl who designed this silly T-shirt were thinking even !
When I got in the bus early in the mornin.....I was hoping to see atleast one person who was as stupid as me to have worn the t-shirt......but I guess I had underestimated
others intellectual capabilities......not a soul was in d red t-shirt....At every stop I kept tellin myself,....."Is stop pe koi toh hoga jisne yahi pehna hoga!"
So, anyways,,,,,,,,I reached work - still with the hope that I would be able to locate at least a couple of ppl.....afterall this t-shirt was not somethin u cud miss-----
the red is sooo bright you can spot a person from the moon !!!!
Although Su was not a ditcher....he was also in red....
We were the only 2 people on the whole floor in dat t-shirt !!!!!

Moral of d story - Never wear somethin soooo bright that u can b spotted from a mile away.

Somethin else !!!???

2005-05-08T03:09:00.000-07:00

Have got to think n write bout somethin other than this luve shuve.......

Jaipur saga....

2005-05-05T20:07:00.001-07:00

The jaipur saga.......
Just before leaving I had decided to make a note of every tiny incident , lets see wat all i can recollect.The night before we were supposed to leave was such a disaster ! I was supposed to pack my bags, and Dad decides that he wants to gimme the budday treat the samenight. So, we all go out for dinner and dont come bak till almost mid night. Who has the patience to pack the bag for a journey on a stomach stuffed with all the yummiest of foodies and goodies ? I jus crammed in a couple of dresses in there and slept off.Upar se S had to show her nakhra's !! I had almost dropped the idea of going --- i somehow knew D and S were not interested. Sa was supposed to come to meet usfrom Delhi. But something told me even he would not be able to make it !!!So anyways, the next day we go to mumbai and meet S's boy friend A. And A tells me - we were planning to take you to shoppers stop and run away so we cud spend some time together !! The nerve these people have , huh ?!!I hate these lovey dovey, mushy gushy couples. Making a public display of all their love n affection for eachother .....bah.......they should take into account how they might bruise the egos of so many others na. They should be legally banned from displaying all their love for eachother in public. No necking, hugging, kissing, cuddling in areas where we single souls roam !!! No holding hands , staring at eachother either !!!! Sounds sadistic ? Well......I bet u hav no idea bout the trauma of being single at my age then !!!!
So neways, we went to band stand. Band stand is such a lovely place---the sea, the wind blowing, the lovely buildings around.....its jus a very pretty sight.Therez something about sea's isnt there ? They jus seem so never ending, so beautiful, so inviting.........the thing they say " aankon mein nahi samaati " that makes sensewhen you stand at a beach and jus watch the waves that seem to jus keep popping out of nowhere ! U can see the horizon - wat looks like the meeting point of the skyand the sea --- the dellusion is a beauty !!!So haan anyways, where was I ? Yeaaa....then we went to Bandra and caught the train. And to my delight there was cute fella in the train sitting right in front of us !He was reading Da Vinci code all the way. I wish I had guts enuff to go and start off a conversation with him --- wish i was pretty enuff for him to want to come and start off a conversation with me,,,,,,, sigh sigh....... oh well. That was that ! I saw him n jus saw him !Jaipur was jus lovely all the way ---- pretty pink buildings, huge roads, not much traffic.....Well it was K's wedding the next day, so we were gearing up for lookin good n all.K's friends were so sweet, they got me a nice big budday cake n everythin. Oh, and did I mention anywhere that K's friends were all hot babes ? No, seriously....all of em smart, hep n really gud lookin ! No wonder then K has always been so concious of her looks .Her friends got me a beautiful budday cake n everythin....got a couple of snaps...will try n load em once I figure out how to !!!

They say !

2005-04-25T20:05:00.000-07:00

They say love is true,
they say its the most beautiful feelin ,
they say its the most powerful desire,
they say it can change the world !!

U know wat I say ? I say it doesnt even exist !

Life aint a fairy tale, and it aint like the movies either! Therez no hero who will save you when you are in distress, no romantic moonlights when he wud secretly cum to meet u, no no no
Guess I hav been watchin movies n readin those mushy novels for soo long that i actually came to believe that I wud find my prince charming or he wud find me !! Reality is --- my parents are hunting for him !!! :-(

U know how it feels to realize that true love doesnt exist ? That a man and woman living together is jus a compromise.....jus an understandin ??
It feels like a kid being told that Santa doesnt exist...
It feels like realizing that a rainbow is jus caused by droplets of water and the sun rays....
It feels like realizing dat watever shines out there are not lovely, sparkling stars.. but huge shapeless boulders called asteroids !!!!

Anyways, the whole point of all those metaphors is that - I always thought I wud like someone and then get married to him.......but alas.............havent met a single guy who said " Nish, I love you.....I wanna spend d rest of my life wid u !"
Hey, that doesnt mean that I am bad huh !! That jus means that no guy ever considered me as anythin more than a friend :-( :-(
booooooo hoooooooo hoooooooooooooo

AYN !!

2005-04-24T20:13:00.000-07:00

Have started reading The Fountainhead again.....that book has something inexplicably alluring about it !
Whether a real Howard Roark exists or not I dont know....but I honestly do see a little bit of him everywhere. The will, the determination,the aim....tis all here....admist me.
But really, nothing provides as much inspiration as books .... "HER" books.
So many times I wonder why I am doing what I am doing...the answer ? I dont know.
All I know is her books make me feel alive, show me some reason in passion. That is wat I want to develop in myself - PASSION - pure pleasure in completing a job....a job dat is done to the best of my abilities.
I feel ecstatic when I listen to good music......I shud feel the same elation wen I am doing my job !

Dear Ayn,

If at all you exist in some spirit......I wish you could somehow guide me to the path that all the charecters in your books take. I very much do want to live a life like that -- a life full of passion....dedication !

DUH ! Ok, so that letter above sounds fake and dumb :-( ?! I dont know !!!

All I know is that the essence of her books is "passion" ......
its "passion" that drives the world......make it a reason for your existance !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Frank = Foolish ?

2005-04-19T20:05:00.000-07:00

Someone told me the other day that you are very frank. That u say watever comes to your mind...... well, thats wat annonimity does to you !
You can just speak your mind about anything without any fear of any sort. No wonder so many people take up blogging and chatting............... am sure most of them rarely express themselves as freely and frankly as they do annonymously online :-)

Its cool how you can let your imagination go berserk when you are annonymus and when the people you are interacting with are also "virtual"..........
There may be some of things that I have posted on my blog that I may never say to anyone in person, but I dont hesitate putting it up on my blog !! That doesnt make me a hypocrite, does it ??

PS: The next post shall be all praise for AYN RAND. So, if any of you r Ayn Rand fans then b sure to come bak :-)

2005-03-31T04:02:00.000-08:00

Horny ? Hummm yea watever...call it wat u want ...but jus feel like composing this list ofthings that turn me ON ;-)
ruffled hair....yessss.... messy and unkempt hair ( on the head, ofcourse )
the smell of a virile cologne....
the husky voice..
baggy jeans..
more than 6 feet height.....yes....tall guys jus have something about them thats too attractive !Sexy sense of humour --- u can jus spend the rest of ur life with such guys...(of course, u agree thatsan incredibly rare quality in men !! )
that carefree walk...

Shall surely add more as and when i can come up with em ......

My funda's....

2005-03-16T04:09:00.000-08:00

Dance is the vertical expression of a horizontal desire !
When a guy is looking at you, hez thinking about food, or cricket or football or something... When you want something to happen very badly, the chances of it happening are jus as low, your enthusiasm and the probability of the incident happening are inversely proportional !! Never be over dressed for a party....you end up feeling like a clown !
Dont take all the crap people say about you....take only some of it !!
Your Mom is the only person in the whole wide world who would really want the best for you...ever1 else really doesnt care.
If you cant work well, doesnt mean you are incapable of it, just means you aint working in the right direction.
Bad music can ruin your entire mood !!
Sometimes....you should fake it.......nobody would come to know anyways !

Guess who ?!

2005-02-27T19:19:00.000-08:00

Ok, so herez some news...
One day I jus get a mail from this X someone. I have no idea who this is ! And S writes saying : I have no idea who you are , but I found ur id in my most recently used list.. so, I thought I wud jus mail ya and find out.

Senti bakwass.....

2005-01-27T04:31:00.000-08:00

I dont get it really....the matters of the heart are so unrealistic and alien to me....
How would you know that u really like someone ?
How can u be sure that u like that someone more than just a friend ?
And if you really know that u like that someone then why on earth cant that someone also like u back ?
Why do u end up thinking soooo much about someone who bothers two hoots about u ??
Why do u end up taking crap from that someone just because u are afraid of losing that person ?
Why cant u simply show that someone that u can be very happy all by yourself ?
How can u ignore someone when u know that person likes u ?Why should u ??
Why the freaking heck do looks matter so much when it comes to this kinda stuff ??? WHY ????
Why cant someone like u just as much as u like that someone, and in the same way ??

Sigh.....if anybody has any answers then get back to me...........:-)

Heel America ??

2005-01-27T03:57:00.000-08:00

How can anybody name a pet after a country ?? Jeezzzz !!!
Bush the dubya man has......
Imagine...wat if someone was to name his pet doggy as America.....

Play Dead America...
Good boy.....

Not indoors america.............

Sheeeeeks.....jus sounds silly !!!!!!

meetings ....zzzz !!

2005-01-20T19:25:00.000-08:00

Lesson # 1 : Try to avoid attending meetings as far as possible !
Lesson # 2 : Keep your mouth shut in meetings........coz more than half the times u barely know wat the meeting is for.....and the other times u are actually asleep !!!
Lesson # 3 : Never smile in a meeting.....people wonder if ur happy about something u shuldnt be or whether ur grinning at everybody's plight !!!
Lesson # 4 : Pretend to be scribbling away to glory in any meeting....creates a good impression !!!!
Lesson # 5 : Dont sleep in em............

Brrrr...

2005-01-18T19:09:00.000-08:00

How on earth do kids going to school early on a winters morning manage to wear shorts and skirts ???

I am shivering inspite of having wrapped myself in every piece of warm clothing possible !!

Tsunami....

2004-12-29T19:06:00.000-08:00

India claims that we have lost more than 11000 lives !
Have we really lost so many lives ?? Or is it a plot by our oh so honest politicians in order to gain more aid in terms of money ??
For the kind of money that is pouring in from the capitalistic big wigs, there should be enough to at least provide the basic aminities to the affected people and all.
Its like what had happened when an earthquake had hit Lathur, the aid and relief fund poured in from everywhere and in a plenty too......but the ones who actually needed it never got the aid !!!
So, who exactly are you helping out when you contribute to such relief funds ?
I am not saying that everything is corrupt and that nobody actually helps out or watever,.........maybe NGO's do more sincere work than anyother.......
But the question is, when the govt is supposed to be a representative of the people, why cant they help out the victims ? Why does aid from the center almost never reach the affected ? Why do only tits and bits trickle down to those who need it the most ?????

5 point someone !!

2004-12-28T19:08:00.000-08:00

And whoz that u ask ?
Thats ME :-(
At least the author of that book was an average among the best in this country of billions.....I dont even have that claim to flaunt :-((
Its pretty sickening being an average.....
average intelligence,
average looks, u get the whole point , right ??

So hummm how can an average someone make a difference ?
By her not so average attitude and maybe her not so average expectations from herself......

hai na ?
that could make the difference na ??

U know when this "average " thing comes into the picture ? When you compare yourself with others around !
So, the simple solution is to stop comparing yourself with anyone other than yourself !!
U set the goals , u achieve them -- all for yourself and by yourself...........

And u say gals are wierd ????

2004-12-27T19:08:00.000-08:00

Not that I was purpousefully listening to these guys sitting behind me in the bus.... but the guy with specs was pretty loud.....really ! .......I couldnt help over hearing them and thinking about the conversation they had !!!!

Guy with specs : So wat, I dont think you have to tell her...
Guy without em : But aftrerall, I am gonna get married to her, she will come to know sooner or later right ?
Guy with specs : Yours is not a dreaded disease like HIV, so it doesnt really matter, right ?
Guy without em: But I could get attacks anytime....it could happen just like that..... !!
Guy with specs : Has anything like that happened in the past year ?
Guy without em : No.......but the doc says its not curable and no one can predict when I could get an attack again !!
Guy with specs : Look, its like this -- if you had a crore rupees, would you be bothered about how anyone else feels about it ? U would just spend it the way you wanted , right ?? (dont ask me if therez any link between the situation and the analogy this guy has given.....but this is just wat he said !! )
Guy without em : Even my parents dont want me to say anything about my problem......but .....I am not an absolutely normal person and she should know that !
Guy with specs : Why ? She would come to know after you guys are married anyways...(at which point I honestly felt like breaking this guys specs and punching him in the nose !!)..so why tell her before ?????
Gals also lie when it comes to this arranged marriage stuff. U know, I had gone to visit this family and I could make out that the gal was wearing lenses.....(while her bio data claimed she needed no aid for vision).....and when I asked her if she needed to wear glasses.....she said no !! Thats a lie isnt it ? So, itna toh chalta hai na arranged marriages mein !!!
( and this guy can equate the problem having a disease of some sort to the problem of having specs ??? I mean, this specs thing wasnt going to affect anybodys life right ??!! )

Arranged marriage is a compromise...I agree. But that doesnt mean one should be dishonest !!!! How can this guy encourage the other fella not to tell his fiance about his problem ????? Watever your problem, watever you are.......shouldnt his fiance know about it ????? I felt like saying the same to the fella who needed someone to tell him to go straight up to his fiance and tell her the truth...........but I didnt :( I didnt say a word........... :-(

And this coming from guys working in good companies, at good posts.....being the so called modern man , working with MNC's , being bred in the multi cultural community blah blah is really of not much use, is it ?
A guys mentallity when it comes to arranged marriages still is the same as it was in the past century !!!!!!!! Take her for granted; she is not going to leave you just coz u lied to her......shez gonna consider you her "parmeshwar" all her life.........thats wat she is supposed to do !!

Friday Fantasy....

2004-12-23T19:06:00.000-08:00

Yipeeeeeeeee.........its here again ! Friday :)
Have been waiting all week for this day .............now I just cant wait till friday comes to an end ..
Aaaah yes, today am in a better state of mind to jolt down stuff that I wanted to ....

Was jus wondering the other day---
Are people with long fingers always artistic ?
Are fat people always the jolly kinds ??
Are gorgeous females always snobbish ???

Humm......why cant we simply generalize things about people ??
It should be as simple as reading a person , the first time you see them !
Its soo irritating to keep pondering and wondering about what the other person might be thinking about you !

How I wish I could simply hear what people thought of me.......hummm......sounds like a cliche.......but then that would have made my life soo much easier....
Imagine, when your not so close friends are grinning at you in that uncanny way and you are wondering wat is this guy/gal thinking bout ........
Or when you jus met this cute guy and werent particularly able to create an amazing first impression ......
Or when your boss looks at you in the morning and gives you a smile (instead of the ususal frown)..........
Or when that stranger walking down the street looks at you as if to say "Gosh,why dont you lose some weight !!"......

Aaaah yes........wish I had the power to read peoples thoughts........

And the second post of the first day is.......

2004-12-23T05:16:00.000-08:00

Humm..........before I started this blog I thought I would have sooooo much to write about ! Now all of a sudden am jus feeling blank :-(
Wat could I write bout anyways ??
My feelings ? Who would wanna know bout that ???
My life ?? Nobody would be interested in that either !!
My friends ??? Nooooooooo

Bah, forget it ! I shall make this blog for myself......jus for myself !!

ME and MYSELF !!!!

My verrry first day !!

2004-12-23T04:47:00.000-08:00

Hieeeeeeee Big Bad internet world.......
Hieeee all those people who blog !!

Have been reading blogs for quite some time... at least have plunged into blogging myself !!
Hope to stir up something in the blog world by my grand entry :-)))

Of course I wish I get to make loads of new friends.......and maybe get some good advice from people without faces :-)
