Sign : Getting a parking space, just for my car in a parking lot, which was 300% full of regular capacity !!!!
Uncle God… funny ho tum ! bahut zyada !!! but I guess, thoda late hi sahi, kuch to kar rahe ho !
Its too hot and I just cannot eat food now…. sleeping without food tonight…
We usually don’t realise it when we are saying that sentence or doing what we did, but it comes to light after a while, and obviously life does not have a CTRL-Z on its keyboard…
I see that my life has changed and taken a different track because of what I have said at times, and what people have said to me… I should not regret it, and let it be, however I am just human 🙂 I am feeling bad about a few things today !!!
On second thoughts, thought the faith is a li’il shaky right now, it still exists in you, God Uncle!!!! I don’t know whats happening to your sense of humor because I am not finding it funny for a while now!!!
Another super weekend came to an end yesterday… probably the last in the series of weekends!!!
Let’s talk about the last two days right now though 🙂
1. Friday evening shopped for some curtain cloth with parents…
2. Friday early evening drove to Priya and had a small DFC get together… and i managed a peg of my favourite Absolut Peppar…. i love that flavour and the taste of it…
3. Managed to get Aro and Subbu at the party too…
4. It had rained nice and cool by the time we left, and then I drove to Gurgaon with them to meet Shaji and his super son Shawn!!!
5. We were on our way to Shaji’s place when Mon called and told me that I had to come to Dublin (the disc of Maurya Sheraton)
6. I stopped Shaji and told him that I had to go… Dropped Aro and Subbu in Dwarka and drove quickly to Dublin…
7. So between meeting the DFC gang once and then meeting them again, I had already driven like 60 odd kms…
8. Dublin is the worst disc I have ever been to… The DJ was dead, and the sound pathetic… I was missing my two outings to the Orange Room with friends and how we came out all exhausted after dancing for hours together… Dublin did not even make me feel like dancing… Highly unrecommeded folks!!!!
9. The good thing was meeting a few friends again…. that made up for most of the loss of good music though…
10. Quick drive back to Dwarka… actually pretty fast (took li’il over 10 minutes between Dhaula Kuan and Dwarka sector-9) saw a little bit of Varekai, and then called it a day…
11. Woke up darn late… and tried to watch a few movies but did not really watch anything…
12. Finally moved out around 4ish and went to ASK, where I gave them the cheque of Rs. 10000. (I will give the rest of the money as soon as I have it) Discussed with Dr. Khan about various issues that we as bloggers can target talking about… something might come up on Chai ki Dukaan too in near future…
13. Time to move to Shaji’s place now… We reached and realised that he was not home and his phone was not reachable either… so we decided to move back to Dwarka… but stopped in between when Shaji called and said that he was coming back!!! While waiting, I managed some hot chocolate fudge at Nirula’s…. I think I like the last weekend’s create your sundae better…
14. Shaji wanted to see Varekai too… So me and Aro drove back to Dwarka from Gurgaon and came back with the CD… Varekai went on till midnight, and by that time one of my friends also finished her work at office!!!
15. Picked her up, and drove back home after dropping her home… The ice cream walas at India Gate had already packed, but it was nice to see at least 200 people around the place at 0100 hours in the night when we drove past…
16. Sunday started very late…. A friend called me and said that he hates me because whenever he goes to his girlfriend’s desk, she has a window of the Chai Ki Dukaan in front of her 🙂
17. Went out shopping with Bindiya… got myself two stunning Kurta’s!!! And a nicey frame for the wall… pretty neat stuff!!! I had posted a picture of Bindiya on flickr sometime back and decided to get it printed and framed and give it to her!!! It was awesome to see the shocked look on her face when she opened the packet!!!! Its nice to do certain things which you are least expected to do 🙂
18. By the time I came back, Aro and Subbu were home already… Had called Subbu to meet pa… Later, picked up Tushar, Went to the market, got a whole bunch of VCDs of which I kept a few….Arobindo, the bugger bought the entire collection of Calvin and Hobbes too :'( what an ASS he is !!! I don’t like him for it…
19. Dropped Tushar back, went to the Tshop… and had a few teas… Subbu was not too happy
with the milk in the Darjeeling Tea, and Aro was not happy that I ordered ice tea for him… So I had the Fresh Lime Masala and some Peach Ice Tea…
20. The Day ended with the movie “Strangers”… Surprisingly I had not heard about this movie ever before and it turned out to be one of the best I have seen with incredible performances by Kay Kay Menon and Jimmy Shergil… I am not going to spoil the movie for you by telling what it’s about, but it’s a MUST watch if you have not seen it yet!!!
And Monday started as usual 🙂 it’s already 4 and I don’t know how the entire day passed by… I have been busy I guess 🙂
Nice!
its the letting go part which is difficult !!!
Thankfully life on this side of the screen seems to be moving in the right direction… Thank you Uncle God… you know how to get the things into place !!!
The sexy girl in shorts fell pretty short of a 2nd round win against the 154 seed 20 year old Russian Alla Kudryavtseva.
Personally I think she was looking too beautiful with those earings to crash out of my favorite tennis tournament like this… Let me not talk about how hott she is and feel worse about not being able to see her in the rest of the tournament !
However, noone even comes close to Gabriela Sabatini in my heart 🙂 Call it a teenage crush or whatever 🙂
And I don’t think anyone can ever play as good as Steffi Graf… serious !!!! *bows to the best*

A total of 10 days of effort!!! And every second worth it!!!
I told her if someone would do something like that for me, I would not even know how to react!!! Do i smile or say thank you! Or what do I do? And she just laughed!!!
I am still thinking about what the hell would I do if someone does this for me… I guess I would just go silent and would be dumbstruck!!!
Maybe I just don’t know!!!
🙂
And here is something more that someone must have done to make someone happy!!!!
Customise a HONDA CRV to PINK Color!!! I don’t think this is a HONDA Original color !!! NO WAY
Pink, by Aerosmith is one of my favourite songs EVER!!!
But here someone has taken it literally I guess!!!
Phew!!!
Enjoy the pictures…
There are times when I feel that there is a very careful planning going on to take away things that I deserve !!! It obviously is God Uncle who is doing it !!! he is the culprit !!!
At the same time, on second thoughts, the good news is that he is thinking about me !!!
I am sure it must be for good !!!
I am holding on to hope Uncle !!! But let me tell you, its getting weaker !!!
p.s. its just a thought that I had to write !!! I don’t need any comments on this one.. apologies if you had something to say about it !
Conversations have translated to monologues where one speaks, other listens, and when the monologue is over, the other one is allowed to speak… And if there is no agenda, there are no conversations…
Your expressions are dependent on time-tables and distances…
The amount of talking is a function of how good or bad your day at office was…
The amount of attention you need is in direct proportion to how busy one is…
And more and more…
But that’s not what I really wanted to write about… A few days back one of my friends had asked me, “Prashant, what makes a man feel superior?” Initially I did not get the question, however further discussion revealed that the question was around what a man feel good about and will make him feel better than peers…
We talked about better salary, better communication skills, better skins ( yes ! as per her more and more men are buying fairness creams and other cosmetics these days… she even shared some statistics with me), a nicer looking girlfriend and so on and so forth…
The conversation was over but the thought stayed… After all, what is it that men really want…? Here are a few things that we want… Now this list is basis my interactions with friends, strangers, myself etc etc and is not necessarily a complete list… can never be one anyway… but an honest attempt to write down a few things, that I feel are necessary…
Please agree, disagree, ignore, react, as per you like… (Oh and most of these are what we want from women…)
What Men want?
1. Wear a seat belt when you are at the co-driver seat…
2. Be concerned about safety, but not hyper about it…
3. When you say you love, show it… No, not prove it, but show it… and explicitly, most men don’t read hints very well, though they are good at reading between lines…
4. Show confidence in your man…at least once in 3 days… It boosts his willingness to be with you like crazy…
5. Let him speak too… We might not be the best listeners or speakers, but we still like to be heard and talked to…
6. Don’t do something just after he complained about you not doing it… You might think you are doing it with genuine feelings, but he, more often than not, would think that you have been forced into it…
7. Don’t make I love you, just one of the sentences in your conversations…
8. If he is far away, show concern about his well being but know before the concerns start tilting towards pestering…
9. Hug from behind when he is least expecting it…
10. Let conversations be like conversations, and not like emails… where you write an email, wait for a response and the other one writes back etc etc… Leave office in office and let home and personal life be that way…
11. Send an eCard… (Greetings are great to share… nothing beats a handwritten note… and nothing will EVER beat it either, so if you can send that handwritten note… it WOULD be great)
12. Offer to drive him around one day…
13. When you are in a party, and have too many people to deal with… Once in a while, which can be 1 time in 30 minutes… make eye contact with him… Come and hold his hand or pat him on the shoulder or do something that tells him you are there…
14. Show respect… If you don’t have anything that you can respect in your man, too bad!!! You probably made a mistake when you got with him, or this is high time that you do something about it…
15. Don’t ask him how the food tastes… if its ok, he would not say anything… If it’s bad, he would still eat… but if its good and he was hungry… He would silently thank God for you being in his life… some of us might even give a compliment 🙂 Actually on second thoughts, most of us would compliment 🙂
16. Talk to his parents… or someone he is close to… Your comfort level with his close ones increases his comfort and his faith in you a lot…
17. Know how to change a flat tyre… Though he would be ok doing it for you, but you still need to open the boot and hand him one of the tools… Do it together 🙂 You never know changing tyres can be funn too…
18. Buy him his favorite candy at times…
19. Once in a while treat him like a kid… It gets too tiring to be an adult all the time…
20. FLIRT with him….
Will stop here!!! Though there are more that I can think of… but the list would become boring (it might already be)…
I just read this post again… Felt that Men can also do a lot of things that we expect women to do !!! I should take a note 🙂
One of my friends said to me after she read this – I want a lot of these from my Man too ! I wish her luck 🙂 and am sure she would get all she wants !!!
I guess on a basic level all of us still want the smaller things in life to make ourselves happy, and these smaller things we preach and and still miss out on all the time !!! God bless you and me and everyone and give us enough opportunities to do the smaller nothings in your life for your man or woman !!!
The apples were a little too red to be real… I thought I should keep a record 🙂
Jelly always makes a nice object to click 🙂 and eat of-course 🙂
And the Yummo Coldie Coldie Custard… Fulll of Stuff and Taste !!!!
