Left me dry.


Appended to Penwork

Picture a well,
once full of water,
the source of life...
many gathered around to share
their hopes and joys,
their fears and sorrows;
now all dried up
drained, empty and hollow
with nothing to offer
only memories for nostalgic fools
nothing to celebrate
nothing to experience
nothing to cherish
Resigned to fate
the well ponders...
Someone must end
this numb existence
someone must fill it up
with water, with love.

PS: Something about the well analogy really intrigues me.

The bitter truth … appreciate your creation. Somehow I can associate it with the life of people staying in old-age home.

Dreaming…Eyes wide open

Image
As the title suggests this is one of my dreams which I see with my eyes wide open… I was tagged by Maverick long long ago and I thought this could be used as an answer to his “ Reveal your dream ” tag. Even though I dream a lot, I managed to say this out loud only days ago pretty much to my surprise as well :) We were talking about one of his friends getting married and that’s how I ended up talking so much. Well just so you know, I wouldn't mind marrying an undergraduate… Wouldn't mind stayin in Mumbai… Would even learn to talk in Marathi, thodi bahut kaam chalau types till I learn the entire language… Wouldn't mind cooking for you… Wouldn't mind wearing a saree a lot more often than I had planned on... just coz you like it :) … And honey you won’t have to worry about your backache…I'll be there to rub iodex on it. Will iron and give you your clothes every morning… Roz chai banaungi...main chai acchi banati hoon :), haan aur kabhi kabhi coffee bhi banaungi… Will r...

Unexpected Knock

Image
Yup that's exactly what I thought I should do today...knock on the door to my house in Blogsville. :) Howdy folks? I've been doing not too bad myself. Still finding my feet in a world that stops or pauses for no one. Anyway in other news, I'm going on a short 'temple-trip' next week to Pune-Shirdi-Nashik-Mumbai with my Mum and cousins. I know I'm not really a temple person but my camera will have some fun and I shall make up by shopping in whatever we have left :P So well, questions for people in Mumbai: 1) Can you help me find a decent serviced apartment/ budget hotel for 6 people (Double Rooms + 1 occupant) in an area that's close to the domestic airport for 2 nights? I don't want to spend a fortune on lodging alone. More for when I come back on 27th. Take care. Image Credits: deviantART

Random Update & Artwork

Hmmm so my exams ended and I was supposed to be free these past two weeks but i really wasn't. My sis in law was here and we were rarely at home, she had to meet so many relatives before goin back to the US. Anyways now that she's gone and a post has been due for longgg I'd better not delay it any further. I don't have anything super exciting to write about except that I'm gonna be starting my project training (first tryst with 'work') this Monday and I'm hopin I'll enjoy myself and feel productive at the same time. Besides that I've been listenin to pretty much the same songs since the beginning of the month... now with my playlist being extended to include loads of old Rafi songs and quite a few by Paolo Nutini {Bubbles' recommendation :)} And this month had birthdays of some really special ppl and some new frnds, Bubbles and Zahid on 12th, Pratham on 15th, Ankur on 17th and Supriya (my school frnd) who has her birthday tomorrow on the ...
