Chit-Chat

Its been a while that I posted something…

The reason…. Or the excuse … would it be enough to say that I was busy? Or if I be honest… my laziness overpowered  my  good conscious of being a writer  and kept on repeating

“You are so busy” You are so busy….

But finally today I defeated my laziness!!!

Yipeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee…..

Few days back I realized…

that if somebody scolds you/hits you/hurts you , you react in a similar fashion. But if somebody shows a concern/care/love to you … you mostly ignore it or if  you know that person than you take it for granted and if he is  a stranger you think he is about to con you.

After marriage

I have gained 7 kgs weight. Tooo much!!  Didn’t knew… life settlement can be more like heavy weight body!! ;)

I also feel I have started behaving like those married woman… who with female collegues every eveining discuss some or the other new recipe . I have also started watching Parvarish aired on Sony and it’s like ….
Mera serial nikal jayega!!

Every morning when I wake up… its like

 aaj brkfast and khane mein kya banau? 
Earlier I used to think… which dress I would wear today? ;) See the change ;)

Now, even when I save just 5 bucks I feel so happy!! Its like… chalo gaddi mein hawa bharwane ke liye bach gaya ;)

But I also enjoy when I meet up somebody and they say… oh you doesn’t at all look like you are married! (Yes mine is a child marriage );)

Whatever its fun… with piyaji and married life  :))

Human Psychology

Human Psychology is just so simple

If you have a problem and even your neighbor is either having the same or a bigger problem then, for you, your problem is redundant!!
But if he is not having any problem then your problem get onto your nerves!!

Just few days back, when my lappy was showing some "tunnel adapter connections" and I was thinking to figure it out , before I could react my hubby types in those words into google and there it was pages with problem and solutions and those frown lines faded!!

I was so chill-axed that no I m not the only one who has this issue ... there are 'n' number of people!!



Like how much satisfaction we can get if the other person is also in same trouble! The feeling of "Not being Alone" or "feeling of kaminapanti"

This reminds me of a dialogue of 3 Idiots

Jab Dost fail hota hain toh Dukh hota hain par agar woh TOP karta hain to usse bhi jyada DUKH hota hain

The Fight For Survival!

I don’t know what made these guys (Murugan alias Sriharan, Santhan and Perarivalan alias Arivu)  to join the LTTE and then plan for Rajiv Gandhi assassinations. But I’m sure it would have been there fight for survival.

What I heard/read from the articles is usually how the youngsters are taken up and trained promising them of the bright future and if that doesn’t work make them believe that there life has a purpose ,getting  FREEDOM !!!From what ? Still to figure out!

After 11 years when the mercy plea got rejected, the new tantrum evolves! How to survive? Again the permutation was done and Mr Ram Jethmalani came up with the new plea !!

Flash Back – eleven years , one of these three guys in jail – four walls – waiting each day to get the answer. The struggle , would they live or not? Each day in trauma and don’t know till when. But maybe they knew it would happen.  They knew, they gonna die (well everybody knows that) but like this?
Death at one go or days of suffering and then comes the relief!

Life Imprisonment or Death, my opinion doesn’t matters here, but all I could see is the fight for survival.

The War Is Still ON!

 Since the day HE has seen this Micromax A70, he is like I want to buy one!Well, even I loved it. The ad is just so tempting.And it makes you feel like its "hum jaise gareebon ka messiah"

And since then he is trying to convince me, for obvious reason ... FUNDING ;)

Just like another day and his convincing strategies he started ... It would be so nice na you already have A60 and I would have A70! Would be cool na?

My answer was.. It's sounding like we are either twins or brother & sister!

Need to maintain our relationship dear ; )

Mummy Chotti.. kar do!

 I remember how used to shout these words when I used to get ready for school and the only thing pending was “Chotti”(pleat/plait) .

I’m sure almost all girls might have gone through this ofcourse if they have a boycut or blunt they could be spared. But otherwise that was one of the routine activities for all mothers and their teenage daughters.

Once she is ready to tie up my hair and she is almost done, then I I used to start cribbing , first about the hair partition that it’s not at all straight and then about the two pleats/plait , I always wanted them to fall in line on my head. One shouldn’t be up and other a bit down.  Two should be inline. I had a habit of placing my hand horizontally between the two chottis and verifying if they are in line or not.

So the usual complains were

Aapne maang teddi  nikal di hain…

Ya fir

Nahi yeh wali upar hain…. Isko theek karo!

And my sweet mom always used to untie them and then doing it all over again. Now I know how much patience you need for those silly things.

How much I miss that!

On Your Birthday!

You light up my life in so many ways
Your special touch of tenderness that shows how much you care,

Your love is like soothing music to my soul,
Makes me feel complete and pure

Your presence is like sweet melody
Each moment you be so lively

We share a kind of friendship
that can just be shared by two alone

You bring a kind of joy

Just cherishing all those things .. for the moment
which is truly special...

On your birthday my love :)

Wish You A Happy Birthday !!!

Internet Explorer users "have a lower IQ"

 Could you beat this guys?

If you have a low IQ then there are high chances that you use Internet Explorer

Well, In my earlier companies we were never allowed to download/install any other browser than IE which comes as default with Office PC I feel. So was it that my IQ level was less?

Well, its more of personal choice is what I feel?

Personally Gmail  and office login I do on chrome, blogger I open on Firefox (as they have an option of inserting smiley’s) and government sites like irctc and eseva I open on explorer! So Where Is stand?

I personally feel these type of surveys don’t serve any purpose! Well, what they can do?

How many of us would switch from IE to Chrome/Firefox to increase their IQ level?

This is called total “vellapanti” doing nothing and creating news!

Just as I did ;)

Rain Rain!!

I hate it when it rains when I have to come to office. I mean exactly the same time when I’m ready to hit the road and rains starts!

Doh!

So much “extra” clothing is needed, well I drive a two-wheeler and so you might be aware of what I mean by extra clothing!!

--First, make sure to keep an extra pair, just in case you get drenched you can change
--No stylish footwear, just those plain floaters
--Once you are ready, wear another jacket so that even if raincoat is not able to prevent you your actual costumes don’t get wet! And also if they are transparent, it also prevents the embarrassement
--A big bag, with tiffin, shawl, towel, extra pair of clothing and mobile on your back
-- then comes the raincoat
--a scarf/stole on your face, to avoid those spalishing of water from bikes
-- a helmet on top of that

After so much effort, if suddenly it strikes you that  you have to give a  call to somebody, or want to get money for petrol. Ahhh…. First remove the raincoat then, take out your bag, remove your stole/scarf pull out your mobile and then call and again dress up!

At times I feel I’m going on a spaceship.

Well, even I heard similar narration from some other male colleagues who come in shorts and vest over that a raincoat, and as soon as they enter rush to washroom to get dressed up. Well, that’s a kewl idea.

And also, some bike riders wear polythene packs on their feet so as to protect their leather shoes and socks from getting muddy and drenched!

Rainy Day during weekdays…. Its really horrible!

Chahat!

Satah par hoon…
Par aasmaan ki ucchai ko mahsoos karna chati hoon…
Unn badlon par baith kar ghoomna chahti hoon..
Pankh laga kar udana chhati hoon
Baarish mein bheegna chati hoon
Baachon sa rona chahti hoon…

Chidyo si chahkana chahti hoon….
Sondhi sondhi uss mitti kii khusboo ko saaason mein bharna chahti hoon…
Kaagaz kii nav ko pani mein bahana chahti hoon…
Aankhon mein saaje huye unn sapno ko
Saakar karma chahti hoon…

Iss khushnuma mahool ko rangon mein doobana chahti hoon…
Khamoshi ko tarango mein badlana chhati hoon…
khusboo ko hawa mein gholna chhati hoon…
Indradhanus si chunari odd kar itrana chhati hoon…
Chand si khoobsoorat hona chhati hoon…
Taaron sa chamkana chahti hoon…

Koi dor na ho
Bus door amber mein jhoolna chhati hoon…
Dil mein uththi uss har ikshaa ko poora karma chhati hoon…


Hain khawab aanek aur zindagi ek…
Bus har pal ko jeena chahti hoon…

KhudKo Dhudta Hain..

 yeh zarra zarra kehta hain
khamosh lamho ko bunta hain

simate huye se dayro mein
chupchap aas kiye rehta hain..

har aahat ki pehel pe..
naazron mein utsah sa jaag uthatha hain

sapno mein haazron rang liye
har lamhe mein khudko dhudta hain..

yeh zarra zarra kehta hain..

bus har lamhe mein khudko dhudta hain

Thanks To FlipKart

 In this cruel world, where getting something in  return of money is not guaranteed, how can one expect of the service.

But well, Flipkart did impressed me, you remember I posted a review of a Book “Few Things Left Unsaid” where I did mentioned that there are some pages jumbled up.

The very same day I posted a complain to there site and what a quick and positive response saying that

" they would arrange for a replacement and apologies for the inconvenience".

After about 4 days when I didn’t received any confirmation of when the book would be replaced or the whereabouts, I got another mail saying that

Apologies for the delay, and somehow it is taking a bit longer to arrange for a book. They would inform me as soon as they get a good quality book.

And before the completion of eight days, they delivered me the same book at my doorstep.

I was discussing this with my hubby , and comparing the same scenario to any bookstore like crossword,Walden,Odysessy . First thing again I have to go back to the shop to get it replaced and second once it is available I have to go again to collect it.

Another thing, just a mail and they agreed for a replacement what if I was just interested in getting another copy of it? They simply replaced it without taking back my original Copy. Had it been a bookstore as a proof you need to take your original one, show them the proof and ask for replacement.


Well, really a BIG THANKS and just that you guys a doing a great job!

Lazy Me!

 I can cook, I can dance, I can blog (Well, I think so),I can code, I can test, I can stitch, I can do embroidery, I can paint, I can be a beautician, I can be a hair styler, I can be a philosper, I can be a player,I can be a …

And the list continues…

But in all this I’m NOT A  PERFECTIONIST!

Well, yes, Just watching yesterday Just Dance, I realized that although I can do so many things but there is nothing in which I ‘m PERFECT. Any dance form , any instrument, any sports, any style just anything of which I should be THE PROUD OWNER. It belongs to me! And I’m the maetro of it .

I don’t know, but is it because of my lack of passion or laziness or is it because of the way situation moulded me. In school I was advised to be a good scorer and also somebody who can cook, stitch, knit and do all household work. In this my passion of dance was still was nurtured but was a second priority

Once , I came to college, people made me belive that I’m a good dancer! And then I used  to think about dance and yes mills and boons and other romantic novels.

As I joined my job , I learnt salsa, and tried growing more in dance but then I was stuck up with performance, appraisal, and onsite.

After few more years, I tried my growth in spiritual learning and started learning Reiki and Tarot . Became passionate about these and started working. But again, I was caught up with the laziness and settlement in life.
That was my story!

And I’m sure there would be many like me as I have heard from many of my friends, some want to work for NGO’s , some want be a painter, an artist, some want to learn Braille , and some want to open there own company, writing their own book and so on….

But don’t know where the DREAMS or thoughts get dumped?

Why is it always caught up with the LAZINESS ?
