My Friends!

Well...everybody has friends, Everybody loves their friends soooo I also love my friends( surprised?) Friends are like a breather when you need to get out of sum mess, they help you think fast ...and in my case they help channelizing my thoughts really! I make friends easily because I am an approachable character and when at that I like meeting new people...BUT kahani mein twist hai ;-) only i decide who will remain with me for a long long time. Yep, dats rite! I keep changing my mind about everything so it is the same wit my frnds, sum days i am completely off them and sum days I want to meet them :-)whoa...dats sum brainstorming i did all in a minute, my mind is filled with visuals of all those memories. Coming back to the point... OK,let me begin with a head count- how many FRIENDS do i really have? 1,2,3,4,5.....10....Not bad! 10, people in my life I can count on when I am down and out! All of them hold a special place in my life one gives me a positive attitude lesson towards life, while the other helps me solve my problems, one makes for my fun pal, one becomes my teacher, while the other is a colleague! You can clearly see why they mean so much to me irreplaceable yet so similar. I meet a lot of people n call them frnds, but they just remain 'acquaintances' at the end of the day.....it remains to be seen how many remain till the end..

Appraisal!!! The Demon

Hey...wondering Why?? I say that because I have the appraisal sword hanging over my head...see i know it means a meager increment in salary BUT what comes with it is a whole lot of discussion. With who? Big Daddy, of course!! Big Daddy who you ask...our dear boss :-) You got to sit across the table, talk about every issue under the office roof:-) Why you came late that day? TO you talk a lot in office (incidentally I do :-) ) See, I feel a little jittery but am not totally scared, I know what is gonna cum my way today! I have to go with a brave face, sit with confidence and ACT smart...hehehe..let me begin describing this feeling- I am experiencing palpitations, I have cold feet, my heart is racing at the speed of light.....i also know that as soon as i enter the room it'll be different but as of now can't help peening down...this thought....after my appraisal is done will tell you what I do......

ANGER management!!


Awwwh....I can not help penning this down...I am so so angry actually BOILING is the word!! Half of my anger can be attributed to the fact that I am a Leo ( Fire Sign) and when i get angry, i don't mean to brag but i actually boil, i can actually feel my blood rushing all inside me.....Well, what makes me angry? Lots of things- I am basically intolerant to non compliance to my wishes :-) Hey i just managed to smile there!! NO, that is true, I am most upset when i don't get what i want and when i want it.....that is all thanks to my dad that he always gives in to my whimsical and insignificant wants, so what is happening basically now is that i expect the same from all. I want all the attention (that i believe i truly deserve) just the way i give mine to others. If you ask me in today's context – I am referring to this one certain muse of mine, n as of now don't want to name. Why don't people consistently maintain their behaviour? I mean, one day you are all sweet and all and the next you do not have time enough to spare and talk!! So now i am angry:-( How do i manage my anger? Not surprisingly, I am at my destructive best, give me something to break and i vent out my wrath (it helps me) calm down.

How do you manage your anger?

Amit Uncle


Hey I was reading Amit uncle's blog! Amit uncle! :-0 Amitabh Bachchan! Poor guy, no body spares him for all the modesty he exuberates. Imagine he has started this blog, to basically reply back to all the adverse comments made against him and his family.His way of getting back at all the nasty remarks made...and here you have crazy fans going gaga over him, praising him.....basically hero worshipping...n from no where there is a pathetic fan who asks him for 4 millions!! And has the audacity to tell him that this amount is a just a fraction from what you have earned, if you give me this money i will be rich!! My God ya, people please grow up! How disgusting is that? HE is just an actor...not GOD who will grant your frivolous and whimsical desires! HE is a living legend agreed, but i wonder if he can really tackle all these crazy fans? I notice this especially in us Indians, we seem to have all the time to waste on senseless activities like these.

Lazing around

This weekend has actually been very different from the other weekends I have ever experienced.Why you ask? Hey cos I got to laze around and do nothing at all. Seriously, all i did was eat, sleep and watch t.v....believe me you, i am not kidding! Every weekend goes by with family, going out to visit someone, sometimes my own friends or then plain busy cos sumbody came home. But you know what? This felt so much more better, doing nothing and the best is I had nothing to think about also, in terms of some deeper thoughts (yes, i do THINK....sometimes) Typical questions being- What am i doing? Am i doing the right thing? Where is my life heading? ohhhh...all that! BUt I was chilled out for a change...something else i concluded from a very relaxing day like this, i want to be busy in life, in that busy schedule one odd day off like that is a blessing!! Cherish it :-0

Filmomania!


Ha...ha...its a new epidemic that has struck me :-) Seriously, guys if you remember my previous posts where i have mentioned that I do like films but am definitely not sooooooo crazy to catch one everyday...but guess what somethings changed! Yep!! I have been watching a movie every other day this week,surprised? :-) One reason i could do is cos i am home alone (a breather for me ) second very good reason is dude, i am not paying to watch it!!! haha...sound like a cheapskate :-) ok, there is a kind colleague of mine who is helping me on my mission to watch films (mission, duh?? ) He gets me all movies I want to watch on a pen drive!! Yep, i sit watching them on my PC...like i said the idea is to be able to watch the film, screen size really does not matter to me :-) I saw Music& Lyrics yesterday (Drew Barrymore n Hugh Grant) gals u drooling already :-) The movie was kinda ok...but i like this song...I thought I'll never lose my heart again but then POP goes my haert :-)

Tearful Adieu....

This is one of those days when I am really feeling philosophical. Well, this sudden introspection is because I lost my close family member just yesterday. And what a day it was- The day began harping a new year as per the Punjabi calender (Baisakhi) and we were moving on with the flow. When all of a sudden the phone rings, its my uncle from Dubai (all my uncles are in Dubai) and he broke the news to my mother (she happens to be the eldest in the family and these are her brothers) My mother's world came stumbling down, for a split period of 15 mins she went ballistic with a whole lot of emotions. I did not know what to do I was paranoid, I was shocked that what if something happened to her in the mood that she was..with her sheer sense of courage she gathered her calm and came back to normalcy. But all this happened and I am so shaken up that- My God, life is so short and there is so much to do....what i learnt was live in the moment and for the moment, there is no looking back. Some things are meant to be that you can not change, but what you can do is act on the moment...we think so much and ultimately let time slip away. Time for one is not the same, so act on it when it prevails, because there is no point in regretting it later. You want to tell someone how you feel, say so right now because who knows kal ho na ho!

Phillum Buffs


Aree...boss I am trying so so hard to develop a liking for films of all kinds but talk about having no means to do so :-( Just today I told my friends i wana watch U, Me aur Hum...but nobody can come to watch the movie with me cos i want to go pretty early ya....becos its cheap! My God,watching a film has become an expensive affair man...170 bucks you pay for the tickets, of course by the interval u are starving and wish to quench your thirst or just have sum delicious caramel pop corn n bang u burn a hole of 300bucks flat!! So if you are on a date then 500 it is...eeow..U know wat i think, i can wait for it to come on cable and save my money :-0 People in office laugh at me but its cool ya...I am atleast saving! NO harm as long as I manage to catch the film right? Entertainment at any time is good :-)

Ye Pyar kya hota hai?


Hahaha...sounds funny rite? Well, a very inquisitive colleague always seems intrigued by this simple question :-) Yes, your read alrite...i said simple!! See, love has its own phases in its lifetime. Had you asked me this question 5 years back...i would have said pyar dosti hai (kuch kuch hota hai, style :-0 ) But hey i have seen and heard of turbulent love affairs...some reach their happy ends (that is being together) while others part ways. My personal opinion about love is that 'One should grow in love' i absolutely detest the phrase falling in love cos if you fall you can never get up and walk together. You grow to love one another, you like and yearn for companionship and that significant other in your life is expected to fill in the void you were carrying all along. It is beautiful when you learn to accept it as it...DO NOT CHANGE anything about yourself or your partner else the very essence of love is lost.,..Dear readers please give me your views :-)

Gossip Mongers!

If u ever thought, u did not know how to play the chinese whispers, then fear not all you got to do is spill the beans in an office cubicle. Well, the fastest way for a news to spread in a medium sized office is to tell a close confidant the news and then wait for a day to pass by...n viola....u hear the same story with a new twist. And u know what? You may not necessarily like it..lies n betrayal are two virtues that i do not possess in particular but it is very evident in the crowd i am forced to be with. For the life of me i wish i could be somewhere else...wher i could just freak out n hav fun...do simple stuff n b happy!

Remind me...


God...I almost forgot! We were talking about my favorite things in life n see I completely forgot to mention it! I am telling you lately my conversations are getting as confused as me, seriously! Ok..to tell you the truth sometimes i feel like I am being interviewed by a prospect groom- What are your hobbies? Do you like movies?Hey....I like watching films but only of a certain genre called romantic comedies- Like: The father of the bride, My best friends wedding, Yess Boss or a typical romantic film like DDLJ. I despise period films n action flicks, they may be brilliant but 'NOT MY TYPES':-) I rather laugh n cry a lil then be floored by computer generated action, Eeeow makes me dose off man!! :-0 What I enjoy the most is chit-chatting, dats something that I cannot live without, friends, colleagues or even the neighbors,you will never find me quite for toooooooo long (raed an hour...MAX) BUT there is something i don't like about myself-My awful mood swings....ya dat happens all the time with me...now i am happy, n the next moment I am upset about sumthing, but it is always significant!!

Yo Baby !!

My lil nephew has finally called me -MASI:-) simple word yessss...but holds a lot of meaning for me...thats becos ever since he began...babbling he said everything-mumma, papa....aaba, nana...but not masi. I sang the word to him, tried to use it in every sentence i say hoping that he would pick up the rhyming at least but NO!! He wouldn't say it instead would just fill the room with his innocent smiles. Sometimes i would get really disheartened and felt that he did all that on purpose to make me run behind him....that i say cos i saw it on his face n impish smile is all that he gave me whenever he was requested to say Masi.....but my lucky day happened to be the 29th of March when i get a call on my cellphone at night, its his father's number and i got a lil jittery as to what happened, n to my surprise when i call i hear my lil baby say Masi, oh...it was beautiful, i can not begin to describe my joy....he kept saying it, he kept shouting and all i could do is thank him and laugh my way back to bed!! :-)
