  • End of the Week’end

    Fukk’ed up noodles, going down the drain…

    Some rice with curd, helped ease the pain…

    The Shawshank Redemption and Ned Kelly on the screen…

    Friday’s over and Saturday comes clean…

    A lazy day on the couch, a call home, no bath and internet…

    Saturday is when I get my food and keep it where it should be kept…

    Finished the dinner and about to rest…

    Abhi calls and asks me to come over, the sub-zero temprature outside is ON for a test…

    I miss a train, and the next one’s late…

    Cold winds, empty platform, nothing to do for 40 minutes… oh c’mon thats not fate !

    OK !!! enough!!! That’s IT for the poetic dude !!!

    This is till Saturday night… Sunday… NOTHING done… too good… waking up at 1100 hrs, saw three episodes of The Great Indian Laughter Challange back to back and laughed my ass out a number of times in a long time… loved watching it…


    Evening just walked around, went to a nice restaurant in Kensington, owned by Abhishek’s friend Shahid, had amazing masala tea after a nice dinner… and took the last train home…

    Walking back home at midnight on a footpath which is slippery because of frost on it was fun… even jumped and hopped around on my way… it was fun being with myself…

    I think I saw a FOX as well on my way near my house… it was not a DOG, it was not a cat… I don’t know of any other animals around…

    Should go off to sleep now.. have a long week ahead and a nice break next week when I go snow hunting up north in this island…

    Hope the coming week is blessed !!! Happy English Diwali ЁЯЩВ

  • Review : Smorty

    There came Internet, and then came blogs and with blogs came various flavors right from personal blogs to commercial ones, from pages where people pour their heart out to pages where people make money… during all this the concept of online advertising added a flavor to the internet by having advertisements over these blogs. Its a win win situation where the blogger would get paid for blogging, and companies would advertise on blogs. Sites like Smorty help bridge the gap between the advertisers and the bloggers by making available opportunities to earn money through blogging… Text entries as posts which link back to the companies websites or relevant sections earn money for the bloggers. Smorty has a very easy to use interface where you see the opportunities that you qualify for and the details along with the money on offer, all you need to do is accept an opportunity, take care of the links and text mentioned in the details, and submit your post. Once approved you get your money. You also get emails about the relevant opportunities.

    Overall something worth have a look at, and helps you get things with are worth some $$$$$s ЁЯЩВ

  • A Date with Friday Evening…

    ~Come back home early… Ok atleast try to… 30 minutes early is good enough…~Don’t change…

    ~Sleep in what you were wearing…

    ~Wake up whenever…

    ~Find out what time it is… (No Idea why this is important, but I tried to find the time as soon as I woke up)

    ~Think of something different to eat…

    ~Think of a nice movie to watch… now that you have slept for a while, you can stay awake longer…

    I am kinda stuck at the last step now..

    I have

    • The Shawshank Redemption
    • Silence of the Lambs
    • The American Gangster
    • Goodfellas
    • Momento
    • One flew over the Cuckoo’s Nest
    • Pulp Fiction
    • Ned Kelly

    I have never been an english movie buff, and I never cared to make an attempt to watch the classics so far. Thanks to Lalit, who helped with finding out what all I can watch, I made a move in that direction. Let me do an Inky Pinky Ponky and choose my movie for the night…

    Oh, I think I have Manorama – Six Feet Under too…

    So here is the plan…

    Lemonade and Pineapple Juice, some noodles, Doritos and one or two of these movies… You are welcome to join in !!!

    Song in the background :
    рдзрдо рдзрдо рдзрдбрд╛рдо рдзрдвреИрдпреНрдпрд╛ рд░реЗ , рд╕рдмрд╕реЗ рдмрдбреЗ рд▓рдвреИрдпреНрдпрд╛ рд░реЗ … рдУрдордХрд╛рд░рд╛ ….

    I love the way this song has been sung… Infact the rest of the songs in this movie also have the folk touch that I love to love like in Beedi and Namak…

    Can’t Forget how Saif Ali Khan did Langda Tyagi to perfection… Amazing stuff… Another movie where he impressed me a lot was Ek Haseena Thi…

    anyway… I should get back to the angrezi movies and go to the kitchen to make my dinner…

    Adios… May God be with us…

  • Looking in the Mirror…

    I am wondering how easy is it for someone to

    Set an expectation
    Forget all about it at his/her own convenience
    Get Angry when someone reminds him/her of it
    Making sure that the other person feels like (s)he has done a mistake by speaking his/her mind
    Coming back and almost laughing at him/her, while justifying what was done with proper and valid artifacts

    ______________________

    I don’t call a lot of people friends… I don’t like to… because I know I cannot do justice to that term… its an underrated word, for all I know… So I have a few friends, and a lot of people I know, and some are somewhere between the I know and are friends area…

    When I call someone a friend, it basically adds a whole lot of responsibility on me to ensure that I intentionally or otherwise don’t do things which would hurt them…

    Not that I can always prevent myself from doing such things, but I, from my past, know that I would be genuinely sorry for hurting anyone of the people I call friends…
    And I do make it a point to make it up to them either by saying sorry and meaning it, or by doing something that would help me make it up to them…

    I would not like to first hurt a friend, and then at the next opportunity go back and justify what i did… If I ever did that, I shouldn’t have done that… I know it feels bad when first you are hurt and then made fun of…

    I am sorry…

  • Radhe Radhe…

    Arobindo called me and this is how the conversation went

    Aro: I have something very serious to talk about!!

    Me : Kya ho gaya?

    Aro : I am thinking, what happened to Radha?

    (What the fkk, what happened to my car)

    Aro continues : Not your car idiot…(No points for guessing that the first thing I think about when I hear the word Radha is my car) the Radha Radha… the Krishna Radha, Radha…

    Me : What about her?

    Aro : What happened to her?

    Me : What do you mean what happened to her?

    Aro : Where did she go after Gokul? Do you know?

    Me : She never told me where she was going ! How the hell am I supposed to know?

    Aro : But there has to be a mention somewhere? She was with Krishna, and we all know what he was upto throughout his life… what happened to her?

    Me : Oh I remember, she got married to someone else.. and used to stay away from her husband and all…

    Aro : Really?

    Me : Nope.. I think that was Meera.. I don’t know.. maybe she transmorgified or something herself into my car and is with me now….

    Aro : Right, but what happened she broke up or whatever with Krishna…

    Me : I don’t know.. maybe she left or something… maybe she was a potential threat to Krishna and he hid her somewhere to save the world… but this needs an investigation… call Papa, he would know for sure…

    Aro : Krishna would not do anything for the world and not speak about it… everything that he has done was properly broadcasted… any act done to do good to the world cannot be hidden.. there has to be something else..

    Me : I guess so.. find out… call home.. and its their marriage anniversary today..

    (Laughter from the other side)

    Me : Not Radha Krishna’s idiot, mom dad’s… make sure you call them and wish them too…

    Aro : Ya i know ЁЯША hehehe… i will call.. send me the numbers again will you?

    Me : Roger that…

    Aro: Chal tata..

    Me : Ok Bye…

    This is exactly how the conversation would have went if I was in India or on Mars for that matter… its amazing how a few things don’t change… I am blessed !!!

  • feel it say it… hear it cherish it…

    It feels so bloddy nice when I get to hear nice things about myself !!! God bless those who feel good about me and make it a point to say them too !!!

    One of my dear friends did and I feel too bad that I did not really know how to react to it ЁЯЩВ but I know i felt real good…

    Looks like I am not that bad afterall ЁЯШЙ

    That brings me to a question : How good are you with taking compliments?
