Anti-theft Mobile

First, my Lunch-mate[LM], then my cab-mate[CM] and finally my soul-mate[SM], were all bewildered for the same reason -The wallpaper I had on my mobile.

Scene1 :  
Time: Afternoon
=============

LM: Oh, you have your own photo for wall-paper?
Me: Yes :)
LM: My friends sometimes steal my mobile to put mine, I remove it.
Me: Oh,is it? Why so?
LM: Come on! How can one have their own !
Me: Hmm.. (mutters... like me!)

Scene2: 
Time:  Evening
===========

CM: Heights!
Me:  What?
CM: You have your own photo for wall-paper!
Me: Hmm.. yeah, you see, I don't have a kid that I can put his/hers!
CM: Makes sense! I have put my kid's :)

Not bad.. could convince him!


Scene 3:
Time: Night
=========

SM: Funny.. Your photo for wallpaper??!!
Me: Funny? What? Photo?
SM: Come on.. how can one put one's own snap for wallpaper?
Me:Why not?
SM: Well.. no one does that!
Me: It is a Chinese way of saying that it is my mobile, picture communication, you see!

[Did I hear him mutter 'seeing this pic, no one will flick!']  Ok.. it works as anti-theft too. Cool!

Dear LM, CM and SM,
     I am as surprised as you are, for different reasons. You on how one can have, and me on why you consider it it a big no-no!  When we can have every other random person,puppies,kitties,trees and flowers for wallpapers, why not one's own? After all, it is boring to have good wallpapers, all the time!

Wafers or kith?

....not a tough choice really, I mean, is there a choice? Wafers, of course!

While we make friends, I am sure we also make some enemies or 'I-dislike-you' folks, every now and then.  About new friends made today, I am not sure but most certainly I would got some folks added to 'I-Dislike-Rashmi' bandwagon.

And you know what the problem is, a pack of yummy wafers!



It is so crunchy and one bite can be so noisy that your colleagues can't help but distract themselves from work and raise their eye-brows to give a weird glance. Besides that, they feel bad that  you are not considering yourself close to them that you don't offer them one.


It is so crispy that one bite and so many flakes fall on the carpet, to fetch enough blessings from the house-keeping staff.


It is so untidy that however efficiently you wipe your face, you will fail in removing that one nagging flake stuck somewhere near your cheek.


And the real worse part is that the wafers are so additive that you care less for the raised eye-brows, 'you-are-not-giving-it-to-me' looks,sweetened carpet, untidy face that got untidier still...

Well, Pardon me folks, one last bite...crunch...
