Gave up!

I finally gave up reading Inheritance of Loss.Yes,I did! After all, how many times can I afford to doze off and hence miss my stop while travelling by bus. And I can't quit my reading habit in the bus. By the way, that's the only time I can read too, with a quarter of my day spent in the bus,I can't allocate time exclusively for reading alone!

Sorry Kiran,the great man-booker winner, I simply had no other go! Better luck next time...err...Or Should I say, wish us better luck next time? No doubt, you have had good luck with the book.

What the heck?

He kisses her. He doesn't have a problem. She doesn't either. Now, the rest of the world has so much to scream about! Damn it! I am sick and tired of all the SMS polls of the kissing controversy that gets aired in every other 24x7 channel. Who is actually flaring up the controversy? I am not saying that Gere didn't go off-Gear but if Shilpa doesn't have a problem with it, what's all the fuss about? If it is an offence, then why let all the love-birds to parks? Come on! What's with the folks to fire it up like anything as if they only looked up to Shilpa to learn and follow Indian Culture.

When folks have survived all the Emraan Hashmi movies and still stuck to culture, what can an incident like this do to Indian Culture? If something has to be done, do to those obscene Indian Movies which reach out to many to affect their thinking, not propagandize something that was barely known, and witness the fun. Why an Arrest Warrant to Shilpa, after all? What was the mistake she committed? That she won the Big Brother Show? That she got mega publicity? That she met with the Queen of England? Grow up , jealous folks! Drink Eno to subside the raging fire in the stomach!!

Or is it a means to watch a Kiss-show,time and again, free of cost? All it takes is to burn an effigy or two and roam around in groups with all the band-baaja. What business did they have,anyway? If it is really an offence, let the court do its job, why should one attack one's dignity by airing the same every now and then? So shameless of whoever responsible for it. 24x7 channels are at their devilish best , just for the sake of conquering media attention and acquiring big bucks.If only they cared for Indian Culture.

Misfit

To a person who considered herself the biggest misfit at the workplace on quite some irksome occasions, what a relief it is to see "Men at Work" signboard in front of the Ladies' Restroom? Worse misfits do exist in harmony at my workplace !!

Co-incidence or otherwise!

The lady of the house on an unfortunate day, slips and falls on the floor to sprain her ankle to resist her from her daily chores for over a month and a half.

The master of the house doesn't take too long to join the bandwagon by falling off the bike to get hands and legs bruised.

Left were two diminutive souls at home who couldn't exclude themselves from the in-house trend. Yeah, fell after just two days after the second incident and had enough injury to comfortably enjoy the family-package offered from God-knows-whom or God himself.

Should all this be comfortably called unfortunate co-incidence or some mysterious evil spell or evil spell that din't get too worse or ... or..... or....
Whatever,Hope folks recover soon. Well, me ok now!!

THE time

Sure,Time waits for none,
Come it has at last

To pay for the deeds done,
And not done too

To punish oneself for the errs done,
And not done too

To judge oneself
And get (mis-??)judged too

Alas! THE Appraisal time has indeed come
Getting head-ache along too

Please excuse if anyone had to bear the risk of reading through the doggerel at its doggerel-best! I owe such springs to the tension,disgust,boredom,annoyance and similar feelings that rise at the appraisal time...

Gosh! last day it is .... let me go and finish it for finishing-sake, at least!! This is one time, as you sow, you shall maybe not reap.So, what the hell!

Good Friday

We were not declared a holiday for Good Friday. Yet the Friday turned out to be good. Friends gathering to chit-chat and gossip after a long time with the masala dosa to boost the energy was good enough to make the Friday good, if not best ( Not with my better-half I had gone, you see to make it best Friday!!). However, as usual, the gossip and comment-offering ranged from one’s boyfriend followed by giggles to dresses followed by giggles to wrist watches followed by giggles to that followed by giggles to this followed by giggles. In the simpler sense, giggles all the way!!

While all of us were compiling the traits of the just-became- fiancés, and breaking our heads to get the reasoning for the same too, we noticed that

Most of the fiancés take to running on the treadmill. For the reasoning,

• It could be to learn how to run faster and faster after marriage (from whom and when is not a guess, right?!!) .
• It could be to become fit, right? ‘Survival of the fittest’ is the enlightenment one gets, maybe!!
  

Most of them opt for Moto Rokr mobile model. The advertisement to launch the model featuring Abhishek Bacchan nodding his head incessantly,come what may, pretty much explains the reason right? Nodding, and nodding for anything doesn’t come without practice, does it?

Had time not be the enemy, we would come up with some more. With the hope that many good Fridays are ahead, we left the compilation at that.

Issued in the public interest of the fiancés to catch up with the tips offered to fit well to survive. Yeah, I happen to do some social service as a consequence of meeting friends on Fridays (drink-less hangover!!)!! Any doubt if my Friday was otherwise? No way!Good, ultimately good.

Dravid Bangalored!!

Enough of coverage and the criticism that Indian Cricket Team has had in the recent past. Me not ready for criticizing them, not that I am their fan, but I don't want to do things that the blue billion is doing so seriously and awesomely well too!!

This one is to show my disapproval for the Videocon company’s move to suspend ads featuring Dravid and Dhoni for the reason that they have not performed well, and the ads supposedly would get aired ,when ( more so, if) they perform well in future.At the end of the day, everyone wants to take their business seriously, so does Videocon. But, what happened to the senses of the marketing team to resort to such means? Who in future would be willing to endorse their products? Is there some actor all of whose movies would run to packed houses? Is there any cricketer who would perform stupendously well in all the matches (It’s another case that some Australians can, but can Videocon afford them?)

Naah …Videocon, Are you sure you played your cards well? I am sure, you haven’t.

Yet again!

Come April first, people fool me more than what they do everyday. Every time,I resolve to be extra-cautious in my dealings with folks on that perilous day but I fail,miserably.A good friend of mine said I was looking cute, cuter than ever before. And,yeah right,I believed! How could I believe, and believe that? Why are some so vulnerable than a lot others?Hmmmph!!
