  • cOuLd’Nt SaY No !!!

    they got into an argument, about love and concern and care… his side was.. if someone cares for you, then it does not mean that (s)he necessarily loves you… concern and care does not translate into love all the time…. and then asked her… if she is so concerned about him.. does that mean.. she loves him?

    silence….

    and then a beautiful giggle from the other end…

    he asked her.. why is she laughing…

    she said… because she could not say no to the question he asked…

    sweet…

  • PiLLoW TaLk !!!

    I took a nap yesterday afternoon.. and did not use the pillow i normally use !!! and after 1.5 hours.. i woke up in a very bad state… had a terrible headache.. and was feeling very very tired…

    Could that happen just because of the pillow?

  • RaNdOm ThOuGhTs !!!

    I am not in a relationship these days.. i am not even seeing anyone for that matter… and this has given me some space and time to think about a lot of things…

    SPACE is what i have been thinking about the most.. not being in a relationship has helped me a lot actually.. i could do whatever i wanted to do.. i could just live life on my own terms.. without really being questioned… i would walk at my own pace… i would not have to wait for my girlfriend on the bus stop or outside her house for those loooooong 10 minutes… i would not have to keep talking to her even though my mom was calling me inside the house… i would not have to change myself or my ways just because she is not comfortable with them !!!

    well so much for happiness together… i am not saying that being in a relationship is always a pain.. but then there are two very very mature individuals who would be part of the relationship which does not end up in pain !!! and i did not have many opportunities to look at such relationships… no no.. lemme correct myself… i have seen some wonderful relationships… though all of them from outside.. i was not one of the partners in it…

    what have i learnt… by being a part of a few relationships and by being just a spectator to the rest… is that we all need SPACE….. we all need to be respected for our individuality and that we want our partner to be a part of our lives without corroding that thin line that we draw inside us which has us as an individual on one side.. and a partner on the other… at times.. these two roles do not match.. or maybe initially they do.. but then with time.. we see that the individual that we were is getting away from the partner we are.. and then who can live away from themself… and we start feeling that strain in the relationship !!!

    I could not give my ex-girl any space.. and i could not get any either.. and that made us break-up about and year and a half ago.. just hope that the people who think they are in love with each other… give each other a lot of space in the relationship and respect the individuality of their partner…

    let ur partner do what they want to !!! and let them come back to you at the end of the day… let them spend their days they want to… and let them tell them how they spent it… let them face their lives themselves.. and let them come to you when they need to.. and give them a surprise by being there all the time.. never let them look around for you.. be there.. but not in the way of their lives !!!!

    enough of gyan !!! phew… ab a long weekend in front of me again.. waiting for a long drive to meerut tommorow… and two weekoffs then.. lets see if i can complete the two books iwanted to read the last weekend 🙂 am one helluva lazy ass i tell u 🙂

  • MeEt MeE !!!

    Had not shaved for a week.. and wanted to see how it comes out in a photo !!!

    and here i am.. thanks to a good friend.. and a great fotographer… Gaurav Srivastava !!!

  • LoNg WeEkEnD aHeAd !!!

    I am home 🙁

    if everything had worked out right i would have been driving to Kausani at this hour… and i think should have been somewhere near Bhimtal !!! but the plan failed…. ppl kept backing out.. for reasons which are valid !!! so no issues… actually there are… i really really wanted to go on this long drive… was thinking of it for a long time.. par kya karen !!!!

    sometime later…. i am sad that a long weekend.. which is not too common is going waste…. but then on second thoughts.. i am thinking of doing a few things…

    ~ Read The Alchemist. and probably “The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari” as well !!!
    ~ Watch The Game, and Bourne Identity ( bought these movies long time back but could not watch )
    ~ spend the Independence Day in front of the TV.. Star One would show two of my favorite serials the entire day…. Khichdi and the Great Indian Laughter Challange…
    ~ and just rest !!!

    lets see how it goes… abhi to… am ready to go to my Mama’s place.. about 60 odd kms away from home… in Bulandshahr…. the thought of driving on the NOIDA-Greater NOIDA Expressway is exciting… getting up at 0500 hours was a pain though…

    Agar aap bus,train,plane ya kahin se bhi aa jaa rahe hon aur kisi mahila/larki ke hath mein phool,dhaga,chain ya chamakti hue koi bhi vastu dekhein to turant wahan se bhag jaye.Ye vastu RAKHI ho sakti hai. Apki zara se laaparwahi apko BHAI bana sakti hai.

    Purush hit mein jaaree.

    Some weekend this was…

    Saturday… a drive to chandni chowk…. and a walk in the rain… in all dirty streets and the roads of the walled city area… and buying what i really needed… yea… 10 film rolls… its quite a bargain there.. makes it worth it to go !!! got 5 Fuji ISO 100 and also Kodak 100 this time.. just want to check how Kodak does… though i personally do not like Kodak a lot… has that warm tone on the fotos.. makes them look more yellow !!!!

    Sunday… 0900 hours to 1600 hours… spent standing @ Dynamic Automobiles… this was the third free service for my car… had to get a whole lot of things taken care of… the Engine Oil was replaced… Air, Fuel and Oil Filters were replaced… Brakes Checked… Teflon coating done.. and the result at 1600 hours was worth having a look and a pleasure to drive !!! back home… ate my lunch and around 1900 hrs… went with dad to the market…. had to buy something… finally moved on to a nicer phone… ppl around me were sick of the handset i was carrying for about 4 years now… on october-5 I would have celebrated the 4th Budday of my 3310 🙂

    Have bought a 6600 black… again a Nokia… just could not buy any other brand for some reason… NOKIA stays my favorite.. and the phone… though bulky… is loaded with God knows how many features.. the most important of them.. which i needed are the wireless connectivity using IR and Bluetooth !!! the rest about the phone here.
