cOmE oN oVeR

i like this song even if the video is a bit weird and more like the home video version

so i don't feel so great nowadays.. and i'm trying to make myself feel better by listening to such kind of music...
but its a nice song... was always a fan of rob thomas :P

TrOuBLe wiTh a T

am exhausted would do anything for a good nights rest where i don't have to worry about grades homeworks projects the future , correction the increasing black hole that seems to be my future... yaaaawn

it seems like once you start staying late beyond 5 in the college then time just flies.

supposedly time flies when your having fun, but it also flies when your in deep deep trouble.

had another one of those today. think i royally blew it. i don't know what i was blabbering. i'm sure that's not what i want to do either. why do we even apply to these extremely inappropriate positons?
why do they even call us???

wierdness just scaled new heights in my life.

on the other side of the globe a friend of mine , L has gone nuts. she is in deep... DEEP trouble and boy did she dig her own grave.
this is just not good.

NigHT

it must be beautiful night outside. it must be.

i wudn't know coz ive spent the last 12 hours inside my lab. and all i can see of the outside world is a tiny slit through the window. this is a nice slow song don't you think? i just remembered that no matter how much i crib and no matter how much i whine,
some things are still good.




i was asked a question, are you a 'tiger' or a 'eyeore'
and for those who ARE puzzled i'm obviously referring to Winnie the Pooh !

i think this is an excellant question.

oh by the way found this hillarious link out here
you MUST read it.. i think the guy is SO spot on !! gud to find the guys are finally catching on ;P

iNcuRioUS

some people have left us for good. i can't imagine anyone with that much self discipline and with such low levels of curiosity.

I mean if someone had asked me specifically NOT to do something. i think that would be the first thing I'd do.

I mean come on.
If someone says don't read my blog... you just gotta ! right?
i mean u just gotta !! and requests me damned !!

i wudn't be able to stop twitching otherwise !\
oh well self restraint was always a remarkable trait i admired in others but could never practice ;P
and boy have i gotten into trouble for that !

dAnCE

a song i came across ...
and just to get the previous blogs of my front page :P

this is a dedication to all my friends who got engaged recently ! ;P
A, R and P.. cheers !!

here's to you :D hope u have a gr8 journey ahead ...

nEw YoRk neW yORk

New york is amazing. It instantly reminds you of the sex and the city show, u know what I mean?
All ladies dressed up in Jessica parker kind of clothes. People everywhere walking where they gotta go. Shops all over. Clothes, shoes, just STUFF. Awesome stuff no less. Expensive stuff. Old old buildings, brand new glass one’s. a hand jutting out of a 18th story window holding a cigarette. Rooftops that have mini trees jutting skyward. Snippets of sky between buildings. So many buildings. 40 stories high 70 gettsomething. In your heart. Being an engineer you gotta feel something. So much was done with just our imagination. Call it awesome or call it evil, but its something man dreamt up and built. And the sheer energy of the place ! coming from Muscat, mangalore, mysore, Bangalore, Pittsburgh. This place is unique. More like Mumbai. Since ive never lived in Mumbai I guess I can’t really tell which has more restless , pent up energy. But I guess both of us need a place like this. A buzz giving place. Where everyone comes and dreams big and does something of their lives. I guess we need a couple more too. Bangalore is trying, but I don’t know if it can ever be this way. Ther’s too much resentment. Too much frustration. They don’t embrace chaos as they seem to in Mumbai. It’s a sleepy place forced to become a bustling city. And everyone hates it. But in NY and Mumbai. Everyone loves it. Every single person living here. Loves it.
And the people look thev’e come straight out of a catalogue.
i had an interview in a company. The buzz at that place was just too much ! I felt like ugly betty coming to work for the fashion magazine !! literally !
is ny for me?? I don’t know. I thought I was always the dreamy kind of person, the person who loves to sit alone and ponder and write a verse here and there??
But I also get bored easily. And I need a constant adreline rush in my life.
So is this the place for me?? I don’t know. Well I haven’t got the job offer yet. And just wanting SOME job has nothing to do with getting one. There is so much parallelism I can draw from the other side of my life it almost hurts my sides. From laughing too hard I mean :P

All I can say is that its been an interesting experience. And here I am in another airport bound for another interview. In my sandals. I mean literal bathroom slippers in a salwar. Hey I can traipse across America in my salwar if I want to. Isn’t what this place is all about. Freedom?? ;P to look as scruffy as you want to and no one cares. So I’m in my salwar and if I didn’t have that I’d wear my scruffy shoes and my dirty jeans and I’d go. Coz I really can’t deck up for a flight halfway through America. Tired doesn’t even begin to describe it. And something happens you know. That distracts you.

mEetiNg sOmeOnE

You know wats surprising? The geeky people have girlfriends. No , its not surprising that they HAVE girlfriends. What’s surprising is all those girls look the same! Ok , so I don’t know if this is something weird that I noticed or just some weird thing about the universe.. but I could swear that the last 4 guys I met? Their girlfriends all looked alike. The more I tried the more confused I became. They all had the same hairstyle and I think that’s what threw me off. Research says if everyone on the planet had the exact same hairstyle, we would find it real darn near impossible to recognize people. That’s the human system for ya. Now, don’t get me wrong. These girls were pretty. Much prettier than I can ever claim to be, but they all looked like they were churned out from a factory.
Weird huh ?

But what do u do when ur civilization churns out generic models of people. People who are all the same. One indistguishable from the other ? well I guess the question is , are we losing our personalities? Are we blending in too much with each other and going from a black and white world to just plain brown?

Girls are funny creatures. Guys are not funny creatures , guys are just plain weird ! :P
Ok ok I may be a bit biased and heaven knows I don’t do chick lit. but I like to think guys think a lot less than girls do. They don’t have complex emotional analysis happening in parallel in their brains at every situation. They don’t search for hidden meanings to situations. Well the majority don’t ! I’m sure u’ve come across the occasional touchy guy who gets offended real easily coz he ‘thinks’ you’ve ‘meant’ something when all you were doing was simply cracking a real sad joke.
Now am not saying guys aren’t sensitive. Peel away the layers and damn near everyone is. I haven’t met a single person till date who did not have their sensitive side. I just think some people are better at hiding it than most. And that we don’t show it to all people we like. We just show it to some people. How we choose that set of people? well mebe those folks were just plain unlucky :P
Then ofcourse there is the other side of it. Just coz the entire population on this planet has their sensitive side, does not mean they’r equally sensitive TO other people. We’ve all met real jerks in our lives. And if I said they had a sensitive side too, u’d probably spit in my face. But trust me they do. They just never learnt to bother much bout other people. Mebe that’s why together takin all of them into account, we have the weirdest bunch of friends. Geeks, total opposite of geeks, people who are forever broke, people who are stinkin rich, Misers, extreme spendthrifts, jerks, show offs, etc etc

oh where was i going with all this ???

fRiENds

A is back ^_^ from india .. and everyone bring out the bubbly coz this time a really close friend is engaged..
well almost engaged, but then any excuse to celebrate right ??
:)

its nice to have our friends back..

yipee

tV sHOwS

its late night, am surfing through the channels and guess what i come upon ???
this crazy show where this lady is.. a reality show mind you where this lady is gonna decide who is gonna be the love of her life.

ofcourse what's different you ask ??? lol the funniest part is she's trying to decide and the contestants are both men and women !!!
ROFL.
man i have to admit i watched the show for a while and it was SO FREAKIN FUNNY !!!

ha ! the crazy stuff they show on tv these days !! and ppl watch it !!

bLue bLUe sKY

if there's one reason I'd ever move to Texas, it would be for the sky. coming from New York, the first thing i notice when am riding through the dreary landscape, easily notice is the sky. completely blue with clouds across like cotton wads.. or cotton candy. white cotton candy.

its just so vast. u can spend hours gazing at the sky. its plainly awesome. impressive. and so so blue.

sure New York will impress you with its engineering... thats impressive.
but here?
there's only the sky and sometimes it strikes me. mebe its enough.

mebe that's all i need. thats what i'm missing.

bUsy sUNdAY

this time i was worried. i was really cutting it a bit close.

here i was, with no phone charger in NY. no internet. no battery charge left on my phone. about to go to houston.
this is how it started. the plan was

a cab would pick me up from the hotel. i'd catch a flight to houston from JFK airport and a cab would pick me up from the houston airport and drop me off at the houston hotel. ok sounds good. everything was arranged.
the only prob was i didnt have either of the cab numbers on me. i didnt have internet to check any info. i didnt have the boarding pass. i was not sure i was SUPPOSED to catch the flight at JFk ??
the only thing i knew. LUCKILY that i was catching a jet blue flight. luckily.

so there i was standing in the lobby of the hilton in NY with a voucher. who do i call ? where's the first cab ???
ok so i asked the concierge. ok she knew who to call. and she called and i got the cab.

next problem, am i even supposed to go to JFk ??? i know i had said that but i had just glanced through the flight plan the previous day. in a rush. i cud be blinking wrong !!

man that was a tense 40 min ride. ok i walk to the jet blue counter and the entire queue i'm wondering if theyr gonna tell me i'm in the wrong airport...
wth !

anyways i get the ticket. ok gud. am in. high five !!
:P

ok now am calm for the next 4 hours in the flight. as we reach houston i reember. i don't have my phone anymore. and i don't know where to go.
uh oh

so i land and get my bags. i see a sign that says taxi.

is it a taxi thats coming for me??

is it a limo ??? who knows where i shud stand???

i go wandering around a bit. waiting here , waiting there. no sign.

uh oh,
no internet. no emergency number i can call. no phone to call from.

before the last of the battery dies on my phone, i switch it on and remember the first number i can find. its the only texas number i have. coz i figure that someone may allow me to use their phone, to call one number. u know like in a police lock up.
ok so i memorize this one texan number i know, austin actually. ofcourse calling this number is a lil sticky. asking for help from this person is a lil sticky. avoids me like the plague. probably doesn't like me all that much.
but will do. desperate times call for desperate measures. :-/

ok in case i missed the limo who's number i don't have. do i know where i'm supposed to go ?? in houston ???
hmm its not the mariott. thats where i stayed the last time... hmm i was sure its a place thats name starts with an H. mebe i cud ask someone for a list of all hotels that start with an H...
and while these thoughts are running through my head and am convassing the area for a friendly face who's phone i cud borrow. my plan was to call this person, ask him to login to my email and check the details in my inbox... gud plan huh? luckily i didnt need it.

luckily i had like 20 sec of phone battery left and this driver called me. the limo driver.
and thats how i got here. now

hotel derek.
starts with an H ?? ha !

so much for my memory. i can just see myself roaming the streets of houston searching for a hotel that starts with H.
how do i GET Into these scrapes????

i shudn't be allowed outside my house in public.

i have NO IDEA what i'm doing across seven seas in a strange country without enough money.

well atleast i'm in. u shud google the hotel derek. its an AWESOME place ! and for the first time in 3 hotels i have free internet. YAHOO !!
more posts WILL follow.

coz i got no phone. and nothing else to do ;P

giRLs iN lOvE

R's brain has turned into complete mulch.

apparently she is now crying over her fiance's absence.

gawd wat happens to women when they fall in love ??? do they all turn into direct train wrecks?? why ???
she's just knows him from the last 2 weeks and now??? she's weeping buckets at his leaving..

and she baked a cake for him !!! and sent it in the courier !! too much !!! i know that stingy, miserly female would never have done it for anyone else...
in her place i might not have done it either... baking is a lil too much huh ...

and i can't believe this was the same girl who scorned the rest of our roomies for being too mush !! she kept saying how she could never understand it. and blah blah..
hmmm i think when the serious types fall in love, their brains turn into complete sod !!! i can't imagine. was i like this too ?????
sadly i think yes. lol

oh well atleast someone is eating some cake...

aNoTHeR wEeKeND oF fUn

am off on another jaunt. this one is infinitely more painful than the one i had last week.

its crazy. i have to be in school at 5:30 tomoro. i can't even imagine at what time i have to get up so that i get here at that time.

groan... why am i always getting into such scrapes.

don't worry you'll get a LOT of stories... this time i'll be stuck in 4 airports over the weekend AND with no one to call and annoy...
u can imagine i'll be doing some serious random typing :P

pArTY TimE

there's always something going on isn't there?

ok ppl its time to break out the champagne bottle.

Mr Sept is getting married !! to a very nice mysore girl it seems ..
aaaha !!! seems like Mr S has not lost anytime at all !!

apart from the broken heart from his rejection.... (sorry can't say that without grinning :D ) lets all stand up and congratulate the chappie. Angel guy as we call him affectionately is about to get hitched. surely he deserves a pat on the back ??

now coming to the point as to how i came to know this, ever since Mr S rejected me, apparently its 'hot' news in m'lore. ESP his reasons for doing it. why people are SO jobless in m'lore is beyond me. bank managers no less !
isn't it funny ? you walk into a bank to withdraw some money for your monthly telephone bill and your friendly neighbourhood bank manager says - "have you heard? the guy who rejected your daughter is getting married to XYZ"
ROFL man nothing can be funnier !!
apparently everyone thinks its their duty to inform me of his life events.

i DO NOT understand why they think i wud be interested. but heck now that i know....
mebe i shud do the jiggle dance ??? some ppl are just plain wierd. keep giving us wierd pieces of info we wud never need. god bless them ! how wud we ever be entertained otherwise???
:D

ok ok comin back to the gala wedding.
this is nice. another sap bites the dust. albeit the first time i've been so super informed about the guys life. bit like a brittney spears syndrome eh? in ur face info, even if ur not looking for it !

on the home front , everytime i call my mom? (bless her soul, i know i always say that before i rip her case right off the shelf, u'll just have to bear with it. pretend your talking to a dyslexic person. no offense to dyslexic people..) she gets almost hysterical in making sure i don't talk to Mr S anymore.

ok OK i am not gonna talk to him. get a grip woman. jeez. after all now he's gonna be a married man .. the last thing i want is an accusation from his fiancee that i'm upto something.
like THAT has not happened before.....
NOT the me being upto something people !! me being ACCUSED ! jeeeez man. knock it off
:) its only funny on this side of the atlantic...

but in the midst of all the professed shyness of angel guy and the champagne you all are busy drinking, we have to admit, Mr S turned out to be pretty slick.. and pretty sneaky huh.
no hints at all.
and all those declarations of how we were still friends ??? tsk tsk..
sneaky sneaky...

hey but anyways. congratulations Mr Sept. u cudn't have done better
let me nurse the broken shards of my non-existent heart with a vodka ...
:P

fAlLiNG iNtO iT

I'm in love.

its wierd. ofcourse it is. after all these years. cupid has struck.
right.

its a different matter that i feel like shooting a lightning bolt at cupid. i don't need love to complicate my life. its jinxed as it is ! i wasn't looking for this. u know that.
u've read all the rants and the raves i've been on against emotional mush ?
and yet when it strikes.... it defies all logic.

i think of it everyday. every minute. its constantly on my mind. it? i mean the object of my affection. i know its hopeless and yet hope lingers on refusing to die.
every phone ring, my heart skips a beat... every time i refresh my inbox, i'm waiting... i can't focus. i can't concentrate ( not that i cud conc much before.. but we'll overlook that) i wasn't like this. how did it happen. i thought i was immune....

OK OK. i can't do this anymore !! bleaaaaaeeeech.
if u believed a word of that , then ofcourse ur a nincompoop.
i'm not in love u idiot. ugh.
all that mush. i have this saccharine taste in my mouth and a sudden urge to wash it away with some checmical hazardous acid. that shud take the taste right out of my mouth. infact that shud take away my mouth.
though i have to say , its an interesting topic to observe. sappy people who say theyr in love... and the way they behave.
I SAY we shud put them in lil cages and observe what they do :P

OK OK am kiddin ... am kiddin...
i have just too many ppl around me ( they may not be able to take me on singlehandedly , but together they cud squash me to a pulp , and not considering there are 2 in the place of one now.. ) who cud threaten bodily harm for me, to actually expand on my theories...
but seriously? did u believe that ??? have you learnt nothing in the last one year???

lol

dE PreZ iS iN dE bUiLdiNG

it was awesome. amazing and fantastic at the same time.

ok so anyone could call me a cynic and they would be right. i am one. a terrible terrible cynic. i refuse to go gah gah and i won't be impressed easily. but TODAY !!

u'll never guess what happened !!

its 2:30 and the prez ( i'll still call him the prez even if he no longer is .. )
walks into my lab for a demo !!! well not mine ofcourse, but of the ppl who work in our lab !
he wants to see what we do !!
i have to admit. biometrics is a COOOOL field. iris recognition, face recognition and deal with these long enough , and guess what?? some of the mission impossible kind of things are gonna rub on us !!!

it was so cool. and i just hung back and gawked at him. there was a whole entourage with him. and it was nice to see so many indians.
he asked a couple of questions. and once he was done, on his way out he caught me gawking at him and smiled ...
all i could do was grin back at him.

so he asks .. "what are you doing here?"
"masters."
"and have you selected your thesis yet?"
"gulp .. yes..am doing research under Prof M"

he seemed pleased. well i know he's not pleased that i've found my non existant thesis topic. but then mebe he was pleased to see the number of indian students.
how far we have travelled. the money we're pouring into these places. money we know we're investing. sure of recovering it.
how does it feel to be the father of a country and see your children doing well ?

to know your people are slowly waking up to the right potential of what they can truly achieve.
so not all of us are bill gates or not all of will start a google/yahoo/ oracle whatever.. but then enough of us do. and the rest of us aint doing so bad after all.
its the huge middle level thats gonna fix all the problems aint it?

and i wanted to tell him so much. i wanted to tell him , that none of us out here had forgotten home. that we all wanted to go back. for a definite reason. that we wouldn't forget the motherland. and somehow , some of us would find a way to give back. i wanted to tell so much.

ofcourse he had to leave in a hurry. but i have to admit.
today .....
even my cynicism had to shut up.

i was just in awe.
i had met the president of india !!
in my research lab !! now THAT has to be an experience for the memory book!!!

tO DieT oR diE eAtiNG ?

what is it with people nowadays?? or am i hopelessly outnumbered on this one.
so many females who were kind of normal before,
have gone completely whacko.

theyr on this dieting spree. now don't get me all wrong and get tied up in a knot. what i mean is, well theyr dieting for the WRONG reasons. perfectly healthy females who are starving themselves so that they can get married.
listening to the blessed mater, apparently its a normal thing.

girls 'shud' do that.

and guys fall for the whole 'song and dance' routine.

poor saps.

coz most of them don't know the first thing that goes through a gals head once he's hooked. ( as in engaged/ amrried whatever )
its
"gr8 ! now i can eat"
and they don't stop. ever.

which is like so wierd. coz if ur a guy and u think this girl is reasonably skinny and u marry her. 6 months down the line, ur wondering where she went.
probabaly inside this other person waddling next to u.
coz the female doesnt stop at what she was before...

she just goes on and on with a vengeance... probably to make up for all those days she starved.

luckily for all you guys, these kind of girls are getting scarce. nowadays they atleast try to starve themselves for a while after the wedding also. mebe they 'SAY' health. but deep down u know why they'r doin it.

but the whole thing is so fucked up.
ok ok i agree we snack on too much junk and our health would be a lot better if we actually did something bout it. ok ok i agree its me and not you. but i'd rather be healthy for ME. and any 'person' around me who makes THAT a condition for .... anything. deserves to have their 'b***s' cut off.

people. get a life.
ofcourse now the seriously obese? i don't know what they'r thinking either. but i'm not talking about them. and they are a whole different story. i'm talking of the kind of normal females .... who go anorexic 6 months before the wedding??? just so they can find the perfect guy. well , the one's who start a sudden spate of skin care involving gram flour, cucumbers, mud(??!!)...
people tell me i live in never never land. if i don't do something soon, i'll turn into a pathetic spinster, and die alone.
boooyah !

the logic is so convoluted. getting anorexia just so some ass can agree to marry you is probably the worst piece of advice you can give a young female.
but mebe thats only me and i'm missing something here.

i just can't see it. u know its like looking at those wierd stereo images that are supposed to show us something. i just can't see it. no matter how long i stare at the picture.
why ?

hOuSTon CaLliNG

U know what's funny?

Uh oh

u know the story is gonna be wild everytime i start this way right? Ok so i'm at the Houston airport. The flight is delayed. The airport is like a fish market. People sitting on the ground. People sleeping on their bags. Ok not people. Its me. I admit it. Its ME. I'M Sleeping on my bag.
Ok ok I’m sitting straight now. Jeez.

So now I’m sitting here on this crummy seat. With my feet propped up on my suitcase. Typing away. Looking around me at all these weird people. Now u can’t argue much with that ok? All these people are weird !
Most don’t know what to do with the extra time they have, so they end up eating. And its not good food either. It’s junk food. Hmm that makes me want some fries. Mebe I should get some...

ok ok i won't get it. jeez man gimme a break.
houston was nice. interesting place. went for a company dinner that sucked BIG TIME!
the place was nice i guess.

oh who am i kidding??? it was this fish place. the whole place smelt like a fish place. there was squid and tuna on the table. somehow the waiters thought it wud be REAL cool to place 3 dishes of tuna around me.. the only vegetarian in the group. and somehow the people AROUND me , decided against any of it.. so the net result was the rest of the tables had their stinkin fish cleaned up early and plates taken away, while i had to stare morosely at the pink-white thing while i was TRYING to have my asparagus salad.

yup that was the only thing on the menu. asparagus salad. let me tell u. that i'm a big fan of salad. infact i like it better than normal food most times.
but this was just a bunch of random leaves. couple of tomato slices and 2 huge.... HUGE... onion rings.
blech !

u can imagine i was waiting for the dessert after i had the tomato pieces.
and then what ??

well they get desserts for the table !
everyone shares in the desert !!!

eeeeeeeeeeeeeewwww

after what people have been eating all night ?? i'm not gonna share my dessert with anyone.
ugh ! double ugh !

so thats what i did. cut my fudge brownie and i had it. on a small plate.
etiquette be damned !


now i have a question on that. can they refuse to give u a job just coz u have this really hard to eat brownie and you use a knife and fork to eat it like a steak ?
i mean come on man.
it was some real COOL dessert.

and i wasn't gonna pass up the chance for it.

but then ... sigh oh well guess it was worth it.

other than that. houston was ok. guess the summers are really bad but then ppl survive don't they ? and then 3 years in that company, you get to travel all over the world ! and they don't just say it. i actually met ppl who had been travelling all over the planet. bout every couple of years.

awesome huh ?
i think i'd seriously consider if i got a chance from this place.

i think i wud.

but then whhat wud i tell M??? hmmm guess prof will just have to wait. gotta meet him tomoro. no idea why he's called a meeting... am so screwed in my course work this sem!! groan don't even wanna think about it. but enough of that.

toodles !

aNd iN tHE miDdLe oF tHiS

and in the middle of all my craziness of school and job hunting and my mom i have some people who just refuse to sit quietly.

now what is it with some people who have to spread nasty stories about us at home.
hey ! call me crazy, call me insane, call me a feminist chick who shouldn't be touched by a ten foot pole. i DON'T mind.
infact i'll even take it as a compliment.

heck u can even call me fat to my face. i won't punch you. I promise.

but don't do what some morons did. thats just not plain nice. and like i tell N , you should ALWAYS play nice.
dude, you don't wanna play mind games with females. and this could be a warning to all guys out there.

never ever try to play mind games with crazy chicks. its proven that the average female is far far devious than you can EVER ...... EVEr imagine. just don't cross her.

u know those wierdos who talk to you all nice and cute and then go around telling whacko stories to people. its even ok if u tell people who i don't know and who'll never see/ hear of me again. but in m'lore???
M'LORE???

that city is like THE city of gossip. things come back a full circle and people people people... u have no idea how much trouble you can get into in f***in m'lore just coz of one stupid story.

walk away before i punch you man. walk away.

mAiL iN

well am off again on another, jaunt .. this time to houston.
i swear this semester has been as random as ever !

ok so i'm starting a mailing list, and i think that promises to be just as random ...
a whole bunch of ppl kept liking my quotes of the day so much, that i think i'll now send one out everyday.

well if you wanna join. any of the 4 who aren't in it- ( yes !! now the count has gone up to 4 !! ) well drop me a email. if you don't know who i am and want to join , (bless ur soul) drop me a comment and i'll add u..

we'll probably have a CnH or Garfield strip attached to it as soon as i can figure out a painless way of doing it everyday :P

u know the most annoying conversation starter ever ?? the habit of saying "wassup ?"
well NOTHING. i just wish ppl were more inventive.

here's a random quote for today
“I guess I just prefer to see the dark side of things. The glass is always half empty. And cracked. And I just cut my lip on it. And chipped a tooth.”

:P

have a gud day and i'll prob mail in from houston. be sure that after i bomb my interview , i WILL be writing something just to relieve my stress....

uH oH, nOt aGaiN

I thought i had brains.

apparently NOT.

instead i have discovered i have MULCH in my skull.

what did i do KNOW??? groan u don't wanna know..
actually its so funny its pathetic... or the other way around...

i sent an entire bunch of Mr S emails to a lot of ppl. wtf ??? will you stop laughing???? its NOT FUNNY !! actually it is.. this proves how screwed up my head is right now. i blame the lack of sleep and the weather. can i get by ONE day without blaming my troubles on someone else?? apparently NOT.
now leave me alone while i crawl under a rock and give a call to my brain which is apparently on vacation. somewhere.

bUT sTilL ...

Well considering that I don't use my brain for most of the things I do ...
then it makes sense that I'm writing, doesnt it ??
:P

ok u have to read the Hitchhikers Guide to the galaxy.. i have isolated this strange depression that has descended on me as the onset of withdrawal symptoms from NOT reading a book from a really really long time. phew ! long sentence ..
One can ofcourse sense the madness setting in.



now lets think bout why the hitchhikers guide is the greatest book ever...
especially the eternally depressed android.
lets.

think that is.

ok am done. lets move on.

R is comin to town. R has grown incredibly mushy after the engagement.. but then, one is allowed to grow incredibly mushy during the first couple of weeks on one's engagement.. so i guess one must make allowances for R. also R is getting cake !! and that goes a long way in tolerating all kinds of mushiness.

i am hearing strange noises from my housemates room next to mine. i am NOT a fan of thin cardboard walls i have to say. no no u pervert ! not those kind of noises..
i don't know.. what the heck were YOU thinking???
but i think she's crying.. or is that maniacal laughter. with some females its impossible to tell.

i wonder how guys live years and years with some of the females i see around me.
( now i KNOW no one cud live with me for yrs and yrs.. so i'm included in that list incase u think me too conceited.. )
but think bout it, one female in the lounge today..

"I am sooo proud of myself (why wat did u do ??) .. i actually guessed the area you live in just by hearing your area code.." (wtf??? there are max 3 areas around school.. and this makes u proud of your achievements?? - does that mean i deserve a nobel prize for listening to you yap , without smashing something over your head ???)
this dame really annoys me. she butts into my conversation with someone else without any ..... and then starts blabbering random crap.
some people reaaaaallly annoy me. heck sometimes "I" annoy me.

yeah i get annoyed pretty easily.. i guess...
anyhoooo

i find my life infinitely more peaceful without my phone. dang !! i shud have thought of it sooner...

nOtHiN nEW toDaY

there's nothing new to read. brain shut down for annual maintainence.

come back another day.

[eom] over and out.

dEciDe nOW

its crazy when we hafta make those choices that could change our life.

u know.. deciding which color shirt to wear. this wudn't ruin ur life.. mebe..
but deciding which job to take, which school to go to, who to marry. these are touch decisions man. and usually if ur like anything like me, you'll hate to make them too.

u never know if ur making the biggest mistake of your life...

u never know if u should be running in the opposite direction...

these are just really really annoying moments.

now ofcourse if you were anything like me ( and thank the gud lord ur not !) u'd just procrastinate till someone makes the decision for you. mebe sleep. mebe have a coffee.
mebe sit by a lake and look at the stars???

ofcourse u don't know what i'm talking about do u ?? only one does...
and mebe its time u (like me) decided a couple of things right now.

like - its high time we had some chocolate mousse.

yummm !!

dOes tHis bLoG mAke mY bUtT loOk fAT?

so studies say having fat friends make us fatter.

too bad , for my friends.. all of them are skinny and guess i'm making them fatter by the minute.
if u want you can read the story
here

ofcourse this came out a while ago, but i thought of posting this today..
why u ask ???

well don't. u don't wanna know.

on another note, due to a couple of minor disasters in my life , my mother .. blessed woman as she is, now thinks i shud get plastic surgery done. whoa !!
wait there a second. don't u think thats a tad drastic ??

well there's a lot of psychology i can throw at u, and say that its not good, yada yada yada.. but ofcourse who can reason with the original essence of madness.

aah well looks like i'm banned from home forever. okies. i'll just wait for her to pass to the gr8 wide pastures beyond...

plastic surgery ... hmmmm.... i wonder... when we become as desperate as to consider that, then perhaps thats the time to get out the people in white coats. or the bourbon.

dEsTinY

have you ever thought of your destiny ?
where we were supposed to end up ? how we would be 10 years down the line ??

yes yes we know that what happens always happens for the best. and yes we all know that we shouldn't speculate too much on the future.

and yet.... don't u sometimes think idly of where life would take you and how petty all the things you were worried about now, would seem so silly to us in the future???
sure we've made mistakes. we act stupidly when we should behave with great dignity.
we fight with people when we should show gr8er understanding.
we waste so much time when we should actually be working, procrastinate and crib when we should be focusing.

ok ok , i know its only me. i really should stop using the "we" word shouldn't i ??
:P
sorry force of habit.

anyways getting back to the topic.
imagine yourself 40 years down the line. imagine where and what u'll be doing. who you'll be doing it with. who'll be around you.
imagine the life you always wanted and ponder over it for a while. is that what you really want ? or something others want for you ?
if you've never thought bout this before. well now is an excellent time to think buddy.

u know only one thing is true in the universe

"this too shall pass ..."

ps: i swear i think i'm getting more and more random everyday.

hOw tiMe fLiEs

aaaaaaaaaaak

its already october !! where did all the time go ???

wats happening?? someone slow down my life !!

only 3 more months and 2007 is over...

ok panic attack in full swing. help !

dOn'T yOU aLsO hAtE iT

when someone copies ur entire homework and then u realize they got a 100 while you got a 98 ?

tHe aVerAGe LiAr

so i cant lie to save my life. atleast i can't lie consistently.
If half the people i lied to compared the stories i try to tell, then boy am I gonna be in trouble. Thats why its fortunate for me that I don't do much of that. lying i mean.

U shud ask A. a simple thing that has to be done which we don't want to broadcast and it takes a major battle plan and strategy. minutes and minutes of counter planning and synchronizing stories. and in the end what happens??

I go and blab a completely different story to the first person who cross examines me.

aaaaaaak !!!
back to the drawing board ! the entire plan has simply fallen apart !!!
every plan is only as strong as its weakest link and i'm as strong under fire as a wisp of cotton candy...

ofcourse the sad part is that for 'normal' people what we're doing isn't even worth pondering about....
lol

ofcourse my lab partners seem to be extremely proficient in these activities. the excuses they come up with are extremely creative ! whoa i wonder how they do it??


on another note, i never seem to learn from my mistakes. had an interview today and i swear i must be the first person to land at an interview without even a pen and just myself. half way through i realized i had NO grey/black folder, NO copy of my resume and NOthing in my head.
thanx bulletin board for letting me know 5 minutes before my interview ... actually if it wasn't for you , i might have never realized till the end of the interview.
but it was remarkably easy to shake everyone's hand.
aah well. if only one lived and learnt instead of just lived.
