Fighting Tears…of desperation

Image
For all who don’t know the reason for my sudden sabbatical lemme tell you I can’t quite figure out myself. :-/ As I write this down I’m sittin in our half unpacked house {I haven’t yet gotten to callin it ‘home’, and yes there is a difference} with no access to the internet, no television, pathetic electricity situation and living with an enormous distance from everything I call my life. Sounds bad? It’s worse… I’ve been here since Tuesday night, and there hasn’t been one night that I’ve slept properly without shedding a few silent tears {sometimes more than a few}. You know the scrabble alphabets? Well just picture all of them in a box that has been shaken vigorously and then toppled and emptied…that’s exactly how all of my life’s letters have fallen out of place; each day has become a farrago. I don’t know how to really say how I feel. But if I can put it in words it would be depression from loneliness… Can’t even write further, it’s hard to explain. I only hope this mess called my l...

Day 7 - Part 1 - 8 random facts

Image
Yeah yeah don’t look at me like that… what can I do if I had so many tags pending… Jaggu tagged me to write 8 random facts about myself and then later Solitaire and Badshah Khan both tagged me to do 7 random facts so well i'm writing 8 :P here goes : 1. I hate washing my hair with bucket water using the mug, I have to have running water or a shower to wash my hair. 2. I’m very choosy about the food that I eat, and the combinations as well… alu puri khaani hai, not tari waale alu with roti and more of the kind. 3. Am a total stationery freak, love buying new pens and notebooks etc…makes me very happy :). Oh yeah I hate using pen on my books, always use pencil and I freak out if someone else writes using pen on any of my books or fair notebooks. 4. I have no knowledge about any kinda make up {the only thing I use is gloss} and I do not like goin to the parlour. 5. I cannot do the “hum aap” lingo…just not me! 6. I have the tendency to correct {politely of course} grammatical/spell...

Tag Week - Day 6

Image
This post was typed on my phone earlier in the day, is making its way to my blog now! I got tagged by Solitaire first and later Pri to write 6 random things about the moment that I was living in, I chose 9:20am this morning (12th March 08), so here goes... I'm sitting on the metro floor quite unlike myself...absolutely silent. I wish I didn't have to go to college today. The sky outside is a brilliant color...reminds me of how badly i need a break. It's very irksome that some of my friends are paying no heed to the fact that eatin is not allowed on the train. I might not get my prac attendance after all...the only reason why I literally dragged myself outta bed this morning...life just couldn't get any better! I'm really missin you...I can't deal with this anymore...I need you now. Another lil something I scribbled today... 12th March 08 5:45pm Silent suffering is what I'm goin through... Harder than I thought it would be... The harsh reality is unpalatabl...

Keeping the faith

Image
Wrote this yesterday in Mango's deathly boring networks lecture... {Mango is what we call our prof. coz his initials are MNG :P}, hope u like it! 10th March 08 1:35pm "Keeping the Faith" The universe conspires against me Tossed around amidst tides of loneliness Groping to hold onto a speck of comfort Struggling to maintain the curve of my smile Calling SOS for my Saviour Hoping to hold on just a lil more There I feel a familiar touch He has arrived, to rescue me Churning in the deepest pits of my stomach, a lump in my throat I know I will live... Live to see the sun, Live to dream again Live to relearn to smile !

Tag Week Continues...Day 5

Image
Okay yeah I know day 5 came pretty late but atleast its here, Thanks for all the energy Zahid. ;) I was tagged by Akila to complete “Life would be different if…” and this is what I have to say after an immense amount of thought. Well any drastic change in my own self, like a change of who I am or what I am would have been an easy answer to this tag but what I sincerely wanna change is the way people are taken for granted. I’ve done it too, subconsciously most of the times but still done it. Have been on the receiving end quite a few times too. On realizing I have had to consciously put in an effort to make amends…but unfortunately sometimes the situation is beyond repair. Ask yourself, don’t you believe it to be a given that your best friend, your companion or any other relationship which is so dear to you is always gonna be by your side whenever you choose to turn and check? Recently when I turned to check, it was gone! [:O] That’s why I think my life would have been different had I...

Belated Dedication :)

Image
Oh well I’m not sure if I ever mentioned DJ or Tweets as I like to call her, here on my blog…but she sure deserves more than just a mention. We go long back and shes still the same sweet girl who used to write her own words on song tunes, talk in third person, put me in mad confs on yahoo, giggle uncontrollably over voice chat, discuss mosquitoes and nuts at wee hours of the night :D and of course pledge never to play antakshari with Dunut in conf. :) Its just so much fun talkin nonsense with her … she defines a very infectious kinda madness and it’s wonderful to hear her smiling. Recently when she came to blogger and dedicated her first post to me, I couldn’t have been happier to find out that I was still thought of so fondly and not a bit had changed. Can’t tell you how heartening that is!! Now if you ask me why I’m writing about her today…that’s coz I want to wish her a belated happy birthday, she celebrated her 18th on 28th February this year. Since I suck at writing beautiful po...

Day 4 - Meme

Image
I was tagged by Lena for this one... Rules: I thought it would be cool to have a meme where we post links. We can post up to five. Then we tell five more people to share their links. If we all share who tagged us, our links are sure to be seen! ) They can be business links, favorite sites, affiliate links, whatever you want… There are Five Rules: 1. MUST be clean. No R rated sites. 2. Only FIVE links. 3. MUST tell 5 people. 4. A link back to the person who tagged you ;) 5. Lara's Place is the meme originator. ;) (an active link is appreciated) 1. Uhmm well this one is the first thing i open on my computer...my connection to everything/everyone else on the internet...no prizes for guessing: Gmail actually Google is truly my best friend, google is a verb in my dictionary and i use it loads of times for almost everthing. 2. This one is fairly new and i won't be lying if i say that i got hooked on to it courtesy Bubbles... deviantART has just the most wonderful collection of i...

Day 3 - The Question Tag

Image
Hmmm this time i was tagged by three people for the same thing. Pri , Badshah Khan and Divya tagged me for the 20 question tag but since the total number of questions exceeded 20, i'm modifying the rules a bit to read: Remove 1 question from below, and add in your personal question, make it a total of 25 questions,then tag 8 people in your list, list them out at the end of this post. Notify them in their chat box that he/she has been tagged. Here goes nothing... 1) Who are the most & most important persons you'd like to meet in your life? As of now I'll name just one...Bonnie 2) If you have the chance, what would you probably say to your beloved one? Well don't you always have the chance?, anyways I'd just say "I love you" again :P 3) If you were to be stranded on a deserted island, who are the 3 blog buddies you would take with you? This is easy...Mann, Bonnie and Cheri :) 4) Where is the place that you want to go the most? At the moment, there are ...

Tag Week kicks off...Day 1

Image
After a whole lotta stuff that’s gone non documented…my exams, my knee getting hurt, my result, my computer zonking off and some stuff I don’t wanna talk about…I’m finally back and up to date (I’ve read up everything I missed on my blogroll). This is when I announce the beginning of Tag Week on my blog… Day 1 begins with 10 things I dislike about Martians , something that Pri tagged me to do… Rules : (i) Write 10 things you hate [I’m modifying this to dislike] about the opposite sex (ii) At the end of the tag, tag 5 random bloggers to take up the tag Disclaimer : This is strictly based on my first hand experience with guys in my life. The first and foremost is the fact that they’re extremely forgetful, also they don’t take the unconventional route. I mean how many times have I gone that extra mile to plan and pull off a surprise on one of my guy friends, and all I get on my birthday is a “Happy Birthday!” They don’t share as much, especially when they’re low they’ll keep it all b...
