  • And Heaven is…

    Having Golgappas till water starts flowing from your nose and eyes…

    Having Tikki with that wooden spoon… and almost burning your mouth in every bite…

    Sitting on the stool, and having the Cafe L’orange…

    Resting your butt against the boot of your car, and staring into space…

    Sleeping till 9 in the quilt on a mattress on the floor…

  • I am…

    One of my good friends today told me today:

    “You are one of the biggest ego person I have ever met !!!“

    This is FYI please !!!

    And that… I am going to write this post because I want sympathy from the world…

    Brilliant Observations !!! Bull’s Eye !!!!

    Did I mention I am hurt?

  • and Heaven IS !!!!

    And I did not mention it before…

    Heaven is your darling (read Radha) with you… you two roaming around the roads for no apparent reason… just zipping past some traffic at times, or slowing time just to let some suckers move ahead and feel good…

    having the windows rolled up…

    listening to your favorite CDs one after the other like there was no tomorrow…

    Heaven is when you are with yourself and someone you love from the bottom of your heart… and you can’t figure out the different between the two 🙂

    all this really makes me feel that Heaven IS…

  • Heaven is….

    An announcement…
    A few friends surprised…
    A few cribs and laughter that follows…
    Being told that you were missed…
    The smell…
    The noise…
    The Life in between…
    The people… the flair…
    The surprise and the happiness on your parent’s face…
    The feeling that you never went away… you’ve always been here…

    Heaven is being back home 🙂

  • This day of the year…

    Reasons to be happy if you are single…

    • You have a free evening…
    • You don’t have to go through the pain of selecting just the right gift which does not look like a cute white teddy bear with a heart on it or a box of chocolates which is in a heart shaped box or something which is not colored red
    • You will not shell out twice even thrice the money for Roses that suddenly become very important…
    • You will not be sitting in a restaurant and feel like being in the sea of couples some of them are happy, some of which just there, some which are only looking at others’ properties
    • You don’t have to do something if you don’t want it, and because the world does it
    • You will not be thinking, wish I was single again 🙂
    Reason to be happy if you are a couple…
    • You got another day together…
    • You can finally spend sometime thinking about how to express (unless you are too lazy and end up buying a few roses, a teddy, a box of chocolates and the loads of other things which are more common than air)
    • You don’t have to through the thoughts about why you are still single
    • You are not looking at every girl/boy/woman/man who is walking alone hoping that he/she looks at you and there is a chemistry that builds up right there and then

    Why is it that we need a specific day to celebrate affection ( i am choosing not to call it love, because I personally feel that its a word, not just any word, but still a word which is the results of hundreds of other emotions)… so coming back to my thought… why do we need one day?

    Men always hope they will get laid… does not matter if its valentine’s day or not… only on valentine’s day they feel that every other women they are going to see is hunting for a guy !!!

    Women always don’t want to get laid only because its a specific day… ok almost always !!!

    This day the earth or the air or the mountains or the stars are at no specific position which would increase the feeling of being loved or love someone more ( ok ok… i used that word; did not know what would fit better there)

    At the end of the day…
    its the Rose dealers, chocolate companies, restaurants etc etc which take away the love that you have showering on your guy/girl only because its the 14th of Feb…

    I someone is really special to me, I rather make them feel special every morning when they wake up…
    and every evening when they call it a day…

    Also I have a plan… when my Chai ki Dukan opens in its real form… on valentine’s day the entry of couples ( like only two people who are madly in love) would be banned…

    Come with
    Friends
    Parents
    Grandparents
    Kids

    and I will assure you one of the best days at the Chai Ki Dukaan…


    Also keeping in mind the chichora guy I am… I would not be surprised if the song list of the day includes…

    Ek Chumma tu mujhko udhaar dai-de… aur badle mein up bihaar lai le…
    Meri Chamiya tu haan mein jawab dai-de… aur badle mein dilli punjab lai-le

    and…

    Kisi Disco mein Jayen… aur hotel mein khayein…
    koi dekh le ne hamein yahan… chalo ghoom ke aayein humm

    Chalo ishq ladayein chalo ishq ladayein… chalo ishq ladayein sanam…

    and…

    Bidi Jalaiye… jigar se piya… jigar ma badi aag hai…

    and…

    Sapne mein milti hai, o kudi meri sapne mein milti hai…

    and…

    loads of songs where you don’t have to worry how you are looking when you dance 🙂

    ok.. so coming back to the point…

    enjoy your day… make someone feel special today… and make sure you make them feel special tomorrow, and day after tomorrow, and day after day after tomorrow, and the next Sunday… and the next Monday and Thursday as well…

    Do that !!! its IMPORTANT… more important that you know it is…

  • what the FUCK !!!!

    The Happening news…

    ~Hindi speaking community attacked in Guwahati
    ~Protests against non-Mumbaikars staying in Mumbai
    ~10,000 North Indians flee from Nashik in 48 hours
    ~The riots because of some remarks made by Karunanidhi over the Ram Setu (I think he said that Ram was a made up character, and that the Ram Setu did not have any value as such, not sure though)

    And loads more which are not doing any good to the country !!! and to add to this, there are people, and thousands of them who blindly follow what these so called leaders have to say…

    I wish the people who play with the people of our country, ROT in hell…

    BASTARDS !!!!

  • wah wah 😛

    dil to karta hai ke dil na kare,

    phir dil hi kehta hai ke dil kar raha hai

    दिल तो करता है के दिल न करे,

    फिर दिल ही कहता है के दिल कर रहा है

    Isn’t having a blog the best thing EVER… i can write about what i thought, what i said, what i wrote… and be assured (unless blogger deletes it) that I will have it for a long long time 😛

  • CTRL Z and NOT, with Pictures…

    You want attention, and love… you don’t get it…

    You realize that you are being a leech, you back off and someone “now” realizes that you should get the attention… funny…

    And this happens only after the critical balance is lost, which was never met… wish there were come CTRL Z buttons in real life too…

    On the other hand, I am thankful there are none, because I have a strong faith in the fact that while you think there is something going wrong.. there is something else which is only getting better !!!

    like my days in London… After I have shifted to london, I have been busy.. with friends, walking around, talking, taking pictures, buying stuff, and clicking with the stuff I bought… very interesting…

    Last Saturday, the shopkeeper even offered me a Lens Reviewer Job… he gives me a new lens.. i use it, and review it and post the review… Very interesting, though it requires me to study a bit which I would soon…

    Some of the other non CTRL-Z moments, minutes, hours were spent over the last two weeks that involved walking around some parts of London in no hurry…

    Went to the O2 Arena last weekend, and this weekend walking around Covent Gardens, Trafalgar Square (for Chinese New Year Celebrations) and British Museum ( yes, yet again :); its high time I dump this blog with loads of pictures from there…soon)

    I have a li’il too much to write about and that is making writing difficult so the best way out is to leave right now with loads of pictures… enjoy London the way I am doing…

    Some pictures from a visit to O2 Arena…

    The ticket counter of the show Afrikai Afrikai
    The two crazy people in London who are my life lines right now…
    Some pictures from the Chinese New Year celebrations

    And a few random pictures that I kinda like…

    Vandalism (Not too uncommon a sight all around London)
    The Escalators @ Canary Wharf Underground Station
    Bow Church Station
    My savings 😀 after the lenses… I am playing in Penny and a few pounds 😀
    A “Visit Canada” kiosk in Canary Wharf Area…
    Vodka tastes better if you put in some lime slices and a slice of Orange in it…
    My Desktop wallpaper these days.. another still of the same glass as above…
    ME 🙂 Looking a li’il extra red because of the warm lamp above me…
  • How IT can support NGOs?

    I am developing a questionnaire that needs to go to various NGOs and would try to capture in detail the IT needs for them which might range from Hardware requirements, software requirements, reporting, MIS, Project Evaluation using IT tools, Improvement methodology detection through trend analysis and data monitoring, and anything else that an NGO might need from IT as a facilitator…

    Need your help if you are reading this post…

    Write for me situations where IT can support an NGO, and how…

  • Continued from the Pas(s)T !!!

    Its not really the feelings or emotions or situations, but the people associated with them that leave a certain taste in the mouth towards them and we end up having an opinion in general…

    Statements like

    All men are the same…
    Whats the Point…
    Why do women have to spend so much time doing make up…
    Bosses Suck

    are all generalizations which get substantiated because of similar individual experiences, a lot of which revolve around relationships…

    I feel sorry to write this, but I also end up making quite a typical fool of myself every single time I start liking someone…

    I like to surrender, let myself loose, expose the weaker parts of my personality, look for support and assurance, whenever I start liking someone… and more often than not, I end up like an idiot watching himself do all this…

    I either over do things and try to give whatever I have, and like a normal human being, EXPECT myself to be treated like THE ONE; or the women who cannot understand how to handle me are bigger idiots than me.. whatever the case maybe.. it all ends up in a disaster and pain…

    There ends the second part of the post that I had written about why I am not too good with relationships 😛

    But still, like I believe… Hope is my word !!! and God Uncle my friend, who ensures that people like Tushar, Bindiya, Ruchi, Bharti, Arobindo, Abhishek, Rains, Monika and a few more, fill-in for him and be my angels !!!

    बोलो किस्को Thank You बोलूं? Rather… here is a hug for you people 😀 🙂 will Thank You later !!!
