The last day of 2006. Personally, it’s been a long year for me. The year we’ve graduated. The year we had to say our goodbyes to our college. The year we all ‘grew up’ n started working. The year I had to face some of the toughest exams of my life. The year I said goodbye to a lot of my friends leaving this city. The year I was, for the first time in my life, jobless n felt jobless. It’s time to say goodbye to 2006.
It’s not just about remembering what happened in the previous year. It’s also about learning from those experiences.
It’s not just about counting down to midnight n cheering the arrival of the New Year. It’s also about being happy that you’re with the ppl u care about n celebrating the moment with them.
It’s not just about forwarding greetings and sms’s of New Year wishes to everybody in your phone book. It’s about remembering each one of them n sending them your wishes of a good year ahead.
It's not just about going out n spending money to celebrate the event. It's also bout making sure you're really having fun.
It’s not just about drinking n driving recklessly assuming it to be the way to have real fun. It’s also about coming back home safely to start a fresh year.
It’s not just about reading this post n getting back to your lives. It’s also about wishing me back !
Yeh.., please come in... feel free to look around...
That is wat we said to a thief. Yup ! A thief. I dont remember the exact date... but I guess it was on the 27th of November and it was just like any other day. Lazy., warm and boring. The bell rings and I open the door and there's this tall., fair., nicely dressed guy outside who introduces himself as a plumber working on some work and looking 4 a few extra rupess. I thought that guy must be a model even with that tool in hand.
I go inside to ask my parents if they called the plumber n the guy walks in behind me n doesnt stop even when i ask him to. Then I have to size him up ( I'm 6 feet tall... thank u ) n ask him to stop there., but he's already inside. My parents are unaware of this n come out to find out wat's going on.
My dad's excited that a plumber has walked in on his own coz there r some taps that need repair n he shows him the taps and the audacity of the bastard that he walks into the two bedrooms., checks out everything n says that he mistook them for bathrooms. Does anybody have 4 bathrooms in the house !? I had my doubts on him from the moment i saw the wrench in his hand... but my dad immediately took out money 4m his pocket n pays him ! Even b4 he did the work. The thief promises to come back with the required material but obviously he never did. we later know that he's got away with money from about 6 apartments in our building.
Y I am writing this is coz of the following two reasons. One.. coz this is my blog and second I wanna warn you of such situations where u shudnt trust just anybody coz if we weren't all at home then and considering the fact that he was a strong guy with a wrench in his hand things could have got a lot worse. When things are so bad that u can't trust ppl u know a 100 %.. u gotto be extra careful with ppl u donno.
"Bhagwan ka screenplay bhi aajab hai, kabhi kaisi ko mukambal jaan nahi milta, you witness the agonies of tragic love stories, you witeness existes of imortal love stories, its time you witness mine.. "
No.., not mine silly ! I don't even have a love story leave alone immortal ones. The guy who said that is the guy who's got innumerable failed love stories., makes good music., sings ok., loves caps and hates the barber or the blade. Yes., it's Mr.............. Himesh Reshammiya. We all love him don't we ? Atleast for making it so easy for us to make comments about his look or his failed love story videos.
I don't hate him. I'm a critic. A good critic appreciates somebody for something he's good at and criticizes him for something......, he's not good at. I've already written a post about him when suddenly everybody was anti-Himesh. Not coz he's my fav but coz most of those who made fun of him enjoyed his music. That's the height of hypocracy. He simply makes good music., has really good lyrics in his songs and good looking women in his videos. Other than that I have nothin else to think about him without immediately switching to another topic.
Now he's coming out with a movie !!!??? Woah ! Now how much excitement ( both good n bad ) will that stir up !? ;) I personally love the video though. Very proffessionally shot., no silly dances., good cinematography with the camera flying accross the scene in almost every shot. Beauty ! I couldn't make out the story though., coz first there are short glimpses of all the previous videos of his and then shows two other girls., one Indian and one blonde.
Now when he said the above line I was impressed coz it sounded a lil classy. But i'm wondering which story is he going to share with us that is his 'real love story'? The most shocking part of the video is the end in which he takes off this cap and puts in the table !!?? Is he really gonna take it off ? I mean... REALLY !!?? Guess we gotto wait about 7 months to July 2007 to find out ! I know u don want to.., but atleast 4 the cap mystery rite ???
Hell on earth. Everybody knows wat I'm talking about. It's no movie. I'm not talking about Afghanistan or Iraq. I'm not talking about Indo-pak border. It's a part of our lives that we cannot escape and have to face its wrath everytime we're out of the house. I'm talking about Indian roads.
They look more like a warzone than "a long, narrow stretch with a smoothed or paved surface , made for traveling by motor vehicle, carriage, etc., " like the dictionary says. Here, in my city they are so bad with so many potholes that I sometimes feel like they didnt actually lay down the road but just threw around the asphalt on the way and let it set on its own. I will do a photopost on Indian roads soon.
It's difficult to drive for even a stretch of a hundred metres without being lifted up off ur bike by some pothole or so called 'speed breakers'. They shud call them back breakers., coz that's wat they did to me. If you've been following this blog for sometime., u'd know that I got operated upon coz of a 'slipped disk'. The new pain-in-the-ass helmet rule also sucks coz not only is it stupid (coz there is a good chance u will die being on the receiving end of an accident on the road even with ur helmet on) but it also causes hair loss ! I don wanna be bald before I get married ! There's also the issue of pollution.
So if u are a kind hearted person with deep pockets and enuf change to spare., please do donate me a car., however old it is. U can leave me ur business card in the comments section and I will contact u. I'm serious...., so u be too :)
