Of life n things.....
There are times in life when so much happens in so little time that you hardly get anytime to absorb much. But, nevertheless, life's good. In fact, great.
I was busy with a college project for which I had to travel to Baagh and Maheshwar, both beautiful places, especially Maheshwar. The place where we stayed was right on the bank of river Narmada. A temple right in the middle.....beautiful!! The side of the temple towards the right.
Even the last few days in college have been fun. With no classes, we end up roaming around the entire day. Finally, got to see "The Dark Knight". Its awesome and am in love with the joker. That retards got something about him. (more on that later) :-D
I drove an auto or I pretended to do so for sometime. Was looking for an auto for a while and then this friend of mine spotted one and the driver was missing. And so we were, up to are usual moronic acts of ours. Went to the men's loo today!! :P Aaand, got a haircut, feels lighter at least this way.
Yaayiii!!!! Life's so good.

Number phobia???
While reading something on a friend's blog, I realized I never thought about this seriously. I have numerophobia, fear of numbers which was earlier a discomfort and now turned into a fear. Well, almost. And, am often teased about it. Talking of mental maths (I think will kill me someday) gives me jitters. Anything to do with numbers and I want to run away. Now, I know why I preferred VnRT(Visualization n representation technique) classes over geometry.
And, am glad I don't have to deal with numbers on a daily basis anymore. :)
PS: Ummm...Ambi 2*2 ?? :P:P

Another one...
I saw this tag on Vikram’s blog. Having nothing to do, decided to tag myself. 10 things about yourself that haven’t been mentioned/discussed on the blog before. So, here goes:-
1.I don’t write fiction: It’s not for this blog at least. Whatever mentioned here has either happened with me or with someone really close.
2.There is something about men with glasses: I always end up noticing (noticing is an understatement :P) men with spectacles. They look soo endearing.
3.I think bald men are really hot: Super-hot!!!!!!!
4.I love dark chocolate: Love the slightly bitter taste it has[guess, I have a mature taste :)]. It’s orgasmic, literally.
5.I have a commitment-phobia: I love the attention n the casual flirting that goes on but I can’t commit when things become serious. Not that I don’t want to, I just can’t even if I like the guy.
6.I have caught my parents’ at-it: I was in school and it was more than once. And, let’s not get into excruciating details.
7.I want to travel the world: This list wouldn’t be complete without this one.
8.I often think of being a single-parent: I do since a past few months.
9.I am fond of photography: My interaction with a camera has always been a memorable one though I’m still learning and have a long way to go. I prefer the black n white ones over the colored.
10.I love eating road-side food: I think it’s the tastiest food one can have. Its unhygienic but worth it.

We meet to depart:II
What she did for him was beyond a measure. Sadly, he realized that very late. At a time, when he himself had no time left. But, she never complained. Never. For her, each day meant picking up from where she left the previous day and go on.
She stood beside him, even when most people didn't. Prepared for the inevitable, she was waiting......waiting for him to get some respite and she knew this was the only way. Also, to see what really was in store for her, after all.
Time almost stopped, each moment seemed to be separated by eternity. But, her wait finally ended. And then, it was all over. He was never going to be around. She longingly looked at the empty bed, his cupboard, spectacles, the pen he had been using for the past couple of years. He loved writing with that pen. She now distinctly remembered every moment spent with him...

Happy Women's Day!!!
I received an e-mail sometime back and thought of sharing it with everyone. This is for all the phenomenal women I know.
In April, Maya Angelou was interviewed by Oprah on her 70+ birthday.
She is an American poet, actress and an important figure in the American Civil Rights Movement. Angelou recited her poem, "On the Pulse of Morning" at President Bill Clinton's inauguration in 1993.
She spoke about her life and what she had learnt in so many years. And, this is what she had to say:
"I've learned that no matter what happens, or how bad it seems today, life does go on, and it will be better tomorrow."
"I've learned that you can tell a lot about a person by the way he/she handles these three things: a rainy day, lost luggage, and tangled Christmas tree lights."
"I've learned that regardless of your relationship with your parents, you'll miss them when they're gone from your life."
"I've learned that making a "living" is not the same thing as "making a life."
"I've learned that life sometimes gives you a second chance."
"I've learned that you shouldn't go through life with a catcher's mitt on both hands; you need to be able to throw some things back."
"I've learned that whenever I decide something with an open heart, I usually make the right decision."
"I've learned that even when I have pains, I don't have to be one."
"I've learned that every day you should reach out and touch someone. People love a warm hug, or just a friendly pat on the back."
"I've learned that I still have a lot to learn."
"I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel."

The distance between us seems to be increasing every moment. Everything is slipping away slowly and this time around I don't even know what to do. When did we get to this? And, how did we?

Can we friends???
I somehow manage to end up in such awkward situations that I don’t even know how to react to them half of the times. It has happened more than once now that random people walked up to me or rather us and have said the utmost embarrassing things in the most inappropriate way. And what in the world is wrong with everyone’s language?? Its understood (one can pretend to have ignored it) if it’s an SMS but not when you are talking to someone. And, its even more disappointing when cute guys do that.

Situation 1: Eye-candy spotted...
A: Have you seen him yet?
B: Whom?
A: The guy who came the other day, he is here again.
B: Is he? Really?
Situation 2: Making it obvious...
A: (Following him to the cafeteria) Oh man! He's hot!
B: (The guy smiles, absolutely aware of what was happening and loving all the attention).
A: (Very loud on purpose) That guy is sooo hot...
B: (Grinning) (The guy taking a candy-floss suddenly turns around to look at A.)
Their eyes meet and A is awestruck by his simplicity and the attitude he portrays.
Situation 3: Plan to ask him for a dance...
A: Ask him for a dance or else I would.
B: (Smiling) Are you sure? What do I say?
A: “Dude! I thought since don't have the guts, I should...?”
B: Hehe...
Situation 4: Looking for him...
A: Where is he right now?
B: I think he just left. I saw him going out with his bag.

Not for me!!!
Meeting new people in the past few days has meant coming across more and more complex species. When I say that, I mean they don't qualify as normal human-beings. They are people who amaze you, amuse you, irritate you (they do!); surprise you in anyway other than the usual. In fact, it becomes difficult when people who have been around for a while and you think you have known them enough; behave in the most unexpected manner leaving you totally taken back. It seems one can never know a person completely. Yes, there are different sides to a person and with time; one tends to know the person better. But, then there is always something that you don’t know. So, how long does it take to know? More importantly, when do you know that now you know? What helps you to decide? Is it the admiration for one another, the trust, the comfort level one share’s or when you simply accept the other person or is it a combination of all these.
How complicated can people be after all and why do they need to be? What are they trying to get away from or from whom? After all, life’s much simpler without pretence and faking things. After being with people who have all sorts issues in life (though, I am very fortunate to also have some people who are very balanced and are wonderful), this is something I have been thinking about for a long time.
*I am happy for being able to write a post long enough.

This one's for you...
I have been wanting to do this for a very long time but some how could not, I was tagged by this friend of mine (please accept my sincere apologies) months ago. Before I get down to do what I am supposed to, I would want her to know how important our friendship is to me. I still remember the first time we met and then its today, its only got better by the day. Thanks for everything, it means a lot. I was told to write things about myself that started with the letter "L", so here goes:-
Liberal: I respect others opinions or behaviour about everything.
Laid-back: I am normally unperturbed by the usual. I don't sweat the small stuff.
Latitudinarian: I am liberal in religious views.
Long-suffering: I am usually fairly patient but off lately my tolerance level has lowered.
Love traveling: Sorry about this one, i know its cheating.

Delhi is not even half as good during the day as it is in the night especially in winters, the biting cold, the hazy view and the long, straight, empty roads...
