Highlights of my day:

1. My alarm took a holiday today. I rose not to the shining sun, but to a bada-bong and a bada-bing on my head. In simpler words, I fell off the bloddy bed in the morning.

2. I got up late.

3. I had to reach college early. ( the 2nd and 3rd usually come together... something to do with fate!!)

4. I flunked my math paper.

5. A dog wanted to eat my clothes for breakfast.

6. The bathroom cleaner(male) seems to have taken a liking to me. (that seriously freaked me out!!)

7. I forgot to take my wallet with me. So, I had no cash on me.

8. The cafeteria lunch sucked. I had to beg and borrow to buy it!!

9. None of my physics experiments resulted in desired results. (Yay!! that's the first thing that's happened correctly in the day!).. and now i've forgotten english.

10. I lost my bus pass. And remember I had no cash.

11. While I wait at the bus stop and search my bag (read:dump) for my pass, 3 empty busses go past. On a normal day, during that particular hour, only ONE bus is suppose to cross that area.

12. Once I find my pass, and see a bus coming my way, I place my foot into cow-dung.

13. When its time to change buses, the 2nd bus conductor decides my bus pass in not valid. Remember I do not know Tamil, the language they speak... I mean, I know all the bad words, but those aren't exactly what I'd want to call him, specially when I want him to allow me to travel. You might want to recollect that I had no cash on me.

14. Also, I want to add... the reason for no cash in MY BAG, is because I gave all the change (around 20 bucks) to beggars and hungry children.. during the week.

.......... and the day ain't over as yet!!! Hahahha!! no such luck. I have 4 records to complete. Physics experiment values to manipulate and finalise, 3 engineering drawing charts to complete... and oh yeah?? A chemistry paper tomorrow!!

hahahahahhahahahahahahhaha!!!! hehehehhe!! hahahahhahahahahahahahhahahhahahahhah!!!

Hope your day was better than mine.

I've read loads about the festival of Thanksgiving. People, places and their customs never seem to lose their magic on me. But, this particular festival (like all others ;) ), I hold close to my heart.

Surprising to some and crazy to others, since I haven't really celeberated the festival. Pretty sad, huh? No turkeys.. no pumpkin pies..

I've read and read an enormous number of stories which revolve around this season. What I like best about it? The fact that the whole family gets together and that everyone sits at the dinner table together, holds hands and thanks the Lord.

Thanksgiving finds its origin in the harvest-home ceremonies held in England. Now, a version of it forms one of the most important festivals in America. These were days reserved to thank God for plentiful crops and a bountiful harvest.

Normally, I believe in sending up a prayer of thanks everyday. For people in my life, for those who've left and for those who will come. For every dream that has come true and every dream that hasn't come true. For everything and anything and nothing. But, in this world where flying cows and talking dogs aren't only fuzzy dreams of a student bored during a lecture, this festival of the celeberation of the joys of life, is in itself, a gift.

In an age where a family consists of a person and his car/dog/mansion... a day when he can get together with the living people of his clan to celeberate joy is, well in the new age language, AWESOMELY COOL!!

Lots and lots of people. The old and the new born... a fire crackling in the background.. loads of laughter and teasing... tasty food.. and then a prayer of thanks. Perfect, don't you think??

I don't know for sure if this is the way it works, even today... And if it does, well I'm one happy person, for you just made my most favorite fairy tale come true!! So, for all those visiting and all those who aren't visiting... for friends old and new.. for my family.. and for everyone in need of a smile... you are all special to me. Thank you for bearing with me!!

So, with loads of love and hugs and kisses here's wishing you all a very very Happy Thanksgiving. May God bless each of you and the people you love!!

Yesterday, inspite of all the rushing around and the "i have so much to do" lines we repeat a million times a day, all my school friends and I got together over a cup of coffee.

As usual, time just flew out of the window (damn!!). The first half of the conversation centered around how good it was to just be there with everyone. The second part was spent recollecting the good ol' days in school. Speaking of which... since we were at Coffee Day a very interestingly funny(huh) incident was recollected(double huh). My Biology teacher, out of the goodness for her heart and her worry for our parent's pockets, felt compelled to give us some free advice. I will refer to her as Mrs.B. I, out of the goodness of my heart and the worry for your parent's and your pockets, will repeat her words of wisdom to you.

ahem ahem.

There was a Coffee Shop stall at college during Kalanjali (a culutral fest held by my school). It was one of those high funda coffee shops where every coffee costs nothing less that a 100 bucks and the coushins on the couches are meant for fighting with. A few of my friends and I got together and went to Mrs.B demanding to be treated for the two months of hard work we had put into making the fest a success, at the Coffee Shop. So, she says... with a huff and a puff:

"Come I will treat you to something better." Picking up a cup lying on her table she says..

"Watch are you wanting to have this yemeraaald ice for,men? This 2 rupees caaffee is the bestch..."

For those of you geniuses who think you are well versed in English, this is for your help:

Watch==> What
yemeraald ice==> Emerald Ice (name of the drink)
men==> man
caaffee==>coffee
bestch==>best

So, we all decide on Cappuccino, the simplest and the bestchest (ahem), coffee we could find there. The last half of our conversations centered around college life. And how, we each contributed to the worldly cause of harassing a teacher. And ofcourse, to the world, by spreading smiles. This one's for you to smile...

A teacher while trying to explain the parts of a plumbing machine said,
"This is the female part and this is the male part. Now who will tell me how you differentiate between the two?"

All us intelligent students kept mum, for the teachers, according to us, deserve their share of "shining moments". And this one glowed the brightest. Why? Because..

"Well, I'll tell you. You see the male part has a screw like projection that points out."

Going on with the lesson... not on the human anatomy..plumbing... keep focused people!

"Now, you join the male and female parts. Does anyone have any idea what you do after that??"

Again, we allow him to shine...

"You... give it a shake."

So, this was a class on...?? Plumbing. People don't lose focus ya!!!

...can't think of anything more to say... but, smile..!! tomorrow's going to be worse!

lotsaluv!

Get that stupid smile off your face, mister.

No, I haven't lost any of my permanent teeth.

And I do NOT need a walking stick to help me around.

I have NOT got dentures fixed as yet.

And I do NOT have wrinkles.

I do have a few strand of white hair, but that has everything to do with wisdom, and nothing to do with age!

So, why does the title bar read "i am getting old"??? That's because I am. Not in the way you'd like to think... but yeah I am.

Till some time back I was running aroung school feeling all important and all about being given the responsibility to do up the stage for some function or some cultural event. Or I was busy basking in the glory of having won a recent art competition.

Today, when I got home from college. My ma told me I'd gotten a call from school. My first reaction was to respond with my old favorite, "Hahaha! They want to give me a TC??"

And then it struck, that i've already gotten a TC!!

...the ringing of the phone stopped my train of thought and brought me back to earth... 'twas from school to invite me to JUDGE a competition!!!

Can you believe it?? Me? Judge??

So, you see... I'm ollldd!! I bet you've been thinking I were nothing more than 10 years of age??

:D

i don't know what's wrong with me. Every time i want to wish for something, i stop. And i think, "is it worth it? do you reallly need this to be? Does this really matter when there are people who are wishing for one meal a day? Clothes to wear? when there are people wishing that come the rainy season, they have a roof above their heads..."

do i really need this wish to come true?
yes

is it more important than what the others are wishing for?
no

Then why do i want God to waste his time pertaining to my wishes and needs when there are people in a worse situation than mine?

do i want him to waste time?
no

do i want my wish to come true?
yes

do i want him to be answering my wish, when he could have saved a child's life, by listening to his ma's wish?
no

so what do i wish for..??
"listen mister... you up there..yeah you! You've got one weird sense of humor! and dnt smile that smile.. i dnt appreciate being made to think that what i want to wish for is not worthy, when there are more selfish people on this planet.. anyway, you always do this to me.. what a sucker i am. So, like you know, im changing my wish...i don't want anything. Just keep all my family and loved one safe. i'll be ok without what i wanted to wish for. a lil sad, upset, whatever... but what's a lil sadness when compared to a life? You just take care of the important stuff... keep everyone i love safe.. and i'll take care of all this small small stuff."

Am I going crazy???

I don't get it. I really don't.

How is what another person is doing with some other person any concern of yours or that of any other another person's??

Actual situation as seen by Me: Nick and Tina shake hands and hug each other in the form of a greeting. With Nick's arm around Tina's shoulder they go to a Cafe. And then after spending some time together they stop by a medical store before parting ways for the night.

Situation told to Rita by Sita who saw this happen too: You know what? Nick and Tina kissed each other when they met, the other day on the street. They then went to some cheap looking motel, before going to a medical store and then going home.

Rita tells Pinky: You won't believe this, promise to won't tell anyone?? Ok... Nick and Tina were making out on the street!! And then they went to some dingy hotel and spent ages in there... and..and.. and then they went to a medical store before going home.

Pinky tells Rinky: Rinky guess what?!! Nick and Tina were in such a hurry to get into each others pants that they couldn't even hold on to themselves till they went and spent the night in a cheap motel. And you know what else?? They went to a medical shop after that... you know what that means na?? Don't tell anyone ok??

Rinky tells Chinky: Don't tell anyone ok? But,Nick and Tina are going to have a baby!! I heard someone saw them spend the night together and then go to a medical store... What is the world coming to ?? Task task!

Chinky tells me: abashed abashed... I shouldn't be doing this but anyway, listen... Nick and Tina are going to have twins??????!

Me: What? What the hell are you talking about woman?

Chinky: It's all top secret. Pinky saw them together the other day..!

Me: what the hell are you talking about?? slow down.. take a deep breath and now speak..! When did you say Pinky saw them together?

Chinky: You remember the day you went shopping? Hey! You must have seen them too, didn't you go to the Cafe later with your bf?

Me: ************************************ They SHOOK HANDS and WENT TO A CAFE. THEY WENT TO A MEDICAL STORE AND THEN WENT HOME. Pah you guys!

How are they going to have kids yah? Artificial insemination??

This really really bugs me..... I do NOT, absolutely DO NOT get the charm of doing all this!!! Someone help me please?

Oh my beloved,
After dreaming night when I woke
it was a strange and worrying thing
to find you standing
at the morning's dawn-eyed window
silent,
shedding tears,
your face like a flower
the sky has bruised with summer rain.


The last teardrop crossed your lips.
You turned slowly, came into my arms
and sensed my concern,
but your smile and answering kiss
laughed,
ringing clear,
the sound like water
splashing in an oasis well.


It was not suffering, you said,
nor some fear or hurt that made you weep.
The tears that you shed
as you watched me sleeping came from
happiness,
rising sheer,
the joy like thunder
trembling in drought's red river bed.


Love-struck happiness broke your heart
you said,
with such sweet pleasure in the breaking
that your very smile,
radiant with soul-fired changes
transformed,
jewelling tears,
your light like sunrise
gleaming the dew-diamond desert.


It is a mystery to me
how this joy with tearful heartbreak sits,
but if pleasure set your tears free
then break your heart against the iron of my eyes,
woman,
and break it there again,
and again,
as often as you like.
I will pick up all the shattered pieces
one by one,
and press them to my lips,
to seal each precious fragment
with adoration's kiss.
