Now, I've seen it ALL!

Yes, quite literally. This is it! There was a time when I thought seeing Mallu porn was it, then there was a time when I thought eating curd rice with manchurian was it. Then there was yet another time when I thought watching disusting videos on YouTube was it and then yet another time when I thought doing aerobics to a Tamil song was it. But no! Today, I crossed all those barriers. This is IT. Fortunately/Unfortunately (All you Cranberry fans out there, please close your ears) I danced to 'Zombie' today in my aerobics class! Eow! No! No! Don't stone me. It wasn't my fault.

It was the instructor.

I mean whatever he was thinking, I'm sure he would never know that right there in that dance hall at that moment, he created history....

Zoe, Indira Nagar

Ok, after a long time, this is one place that needs a special mention on my blog. Today, after a long time, with much reluctance, we went to Zoe Restolounge Indira Nagar. Although the approach to the place isn't great, the food is surprisingly awesome! If you wanna try some good mediterranean cuisine, try this one out. My personal recommendation would be the 'Combo Meal'. I tried the vegetarian one and that was real nice.

'Super-friends'

There are friends and then there are ‘Super’ friends. I don’t like to call them best friends. Coz that looks more like a title than the love it should communicate. Can’t forget the scene yesterday, my super-friend was emotional for something I should’ve been. Hehe…I was cool and she was sad that I was going through that.

A few things I’m proud I can do with my ‘Super-Friends’(Your bucket list might differ though)

• Call them at two in the night and abuse :D
• Drink till I drop
• Do the lesbian dance with them and still not feel icky about it (Don’t judge me on this)
• HUUUUUUUUUUGGGG tight! (It’s a need, people)
• Get them drenched on holi (EVERY SINGLE TIME)
• Cry for nonsensical issues :D
• Talk about our teenage adventures without judging each other (devilish smile)
• Bitch endlessly about people and then feel guilty about it.
• Laugh, laugh, laugh at public places till people around think that we’ve gone mad.
• Make big promising plans with people and then give them goli and sneak out together.

The list goes on and on and I hope it does in the future too. (Yikes! Sounds too formal) Anyway…love yaaa my friends and friendeees.

It's a tough one....

Hell Yeah! You can either fight for it or fight to get out of it. Such is this thing called ‘Relationship.’ No matter how much you love the other person, when it comes to big words like ‘Marriage,’ love takes a back seat and other important/less important things take the forefront. Stuff like education, religion, parents, career aspirations, location preferences, choices, honesty/dishonesty, kids etc. etc. etc.
There are some things you know that you will never get and there are some things that you know you’ll get if you try a little hard. When your relationship is rocky, you know that you want to try every way to get through the difficulty but then other things come in the way that make you think twice. At that point, what do you do? Go for the guy/girl, coz you love him to bits or don’t go for them coz you know that religion/attitude/career etc. etc. issues are never gonna get sorted out. You try hard, harder, hardest until you come to a point where you don’t want to try any more. It’s like your gut says ‘NO’ and your heart says ‘Hell, yeah!’

Letter to Daddy

Hi papa. I’m sitting next to the window at the dining table in my house far far away from you and ma. Eating a brown bread sandwich for breakfast. I’m having something called breakfast after ages. Don’t remember the last time I ate a hearty one. As I eat and look out of the window, I can’t help but whimper a bit. I miss you. I remember the time you used to run after me right from my bed up to the bus stop to make me eat breakfast while I used to be rushing for school. How I used to HATE it! Now...How I wish you’d run after me like that now to feed me food.

Hmmm…………..

The element of risk

I love these things. Random...It's a sudden rush of excitement and then...just then..I have to do it! That is how I got my eyebrow piercing and this time...my new haircut! I had long tresses and now..you can count the hair on my head.Surprisingly, contradictory to what I had thought, I feel great!

Just a smile...

Just came accross this amazing illustration today. What a irony. If only we could pay to have a permanent smile on our face, even in the face of adversity or in front of people we don't like.

Marriage!?!?!

Laptop open FAST! I need to write. Need to express. Need to squeeze that second of emotion that I felt onto this LCD screen. I just talked to her. She’s getting married. My friend. MY friend. She’s getting married. My peer! I mean at this stage I can’t even think of getting married and she says she wants to get married. She wants to get done with it and start her new life. Man! Am I missing something? Am I missing an important stage in life? Will it be too late when I start feeling something like this? Or am I already feeling it but somehow covering it..suppressing it , hushing it under my ambitions?

Is it the word I’m scared of ? Am I looking at marriage like that giant roller coaster you see at amusement parks and you know that’s gonna cause a lot of trouble to your bowels. You know it’s going to be fun at the end but just going towards it makes you shit bricks. Anyway, I’m digressing. The main point here is…it feels like I’m losing her. One of my very close friends, one of the gang of friends that I used to swear by. As I was talking to her, I had just started enjoying the fact that I was getting back in touch and that she was still the same I met at college (I needed that feeling), she tells me she’ll have to disconnect. Her fiancé is calling. She needs to talk to him.

Where are the days when we would do anything and everything together? Where are the days when we would yell back at our parents because they used to stop us from talking to the same friend again on phone after we had spent the entire day together? Now, as people get married, friends become social circle, little acts of friendship become sweet memories, unmarried friends will be looked down upon because ‘they don’t know what married life is like.’

Anyway, I’ve seen that earlier, and I’ve seen people like me feel the same way about their friends getting married. It feels miserable. Or I’m just getting too emotional here. Maybe that’s how really reluctant people get married too. They see their friends get married and there comes a stage when they feel too lonely. Ok people, don’t laugh. It’s just the ‘OMG- my-friend’s-getting-married’ nervousness.

Wisdom hurts!

Dayum it does! Whoever said we needed a wisdom tooth? It doesn't come out till you've lived half your life and whenever it grows, it throws tantrums. I'm exasperated...distressed...maybe I need a dog bone coz sometimes it hurts and other times it itches. I'm not even able to think straight. So you bloody wisdom tooth, I've got two words for you and they are 'Grow up!'

What if companies honestly advertised what they were trying to sell?

At the cost of plagiarism...take a look! :D (Due credit to the person who created these. I didn't!)
