So Many Words in Me Blog!!

For all those who want to try this out...go here!

Sensibilities!

Everything you say, everything you do… you are trying not to offend someone’s sensibilities! Why? Why can’t I say what I have to say and be done with it? Why do I have to hesitate, mull over my actions and then go forward? Isn’t that rude? Am I not speaking in the general sense…I mean I am not pinpointing anybody am I? Then why do I get a rise from someone who is not even in my hit list? Hmmm?

It’s all about someone’s sensibilities! It’s also about my sensibilities; do I want to say what I want to say? Can I say it? What will they think? Here I was planning to write something “101 suggestions whaaaaat?” based on a article the gang and I came across, in a cosmo issue -“101 *** Tips -Mattress Moves So Good He'll Forget His Name...but Remember Yours Forever”. But then I mulled over it and decided against it. Not everyone will appreciate the humour behind the post since it is after all a sensitive topic for many.

So I did a round about and took on sensibilities. Isn’t that’s what holds most of us back from saying what we really want to say?

Arguing 24/7...

So here I was talking with an old pal… known him for like hmmm lets see five years now. And we catch up once in a blue moon. Well according to him he takes the initiative, I say different. He says I am lazy…I agree with him on that. Our conversations always end up with- counting the number of times who messages first, number of replies, who calls first and etc. Well yes, a little childish like that.

According to the boy I make “hazar” excuses when he calls me to come out. Which is not true! I mean he is a real sweetheart but he has bad timing; he calls me exactly when I have already made plans. Now I cant ditch my other friends also. So then I am stuck with deciding what to do.

Anyways, we were talking about how I react to PC from men and how he reacts with women he does not know. So fine I am not all that interested in going for coffee with someone I don’t know (ya ya so get to know him by going for coffee…duhhh). But if I am genuinely not interested then it’s a NO. Well he was like that’s your problem “you say no to every guy. You assume that he is boring and won’t be interesting.” Helloooo? What about the guy then “under what assumption did he think that I will be interesting or even good company for coffee?” huhuh, tell tell? So the guy assumes that I am good company whereas I assume he wont be that great to yap with and I will probably end up giving bright vacant smiles and cursing myself throughout the whole ordeal. Well everyone does make assumptions and I am not the only one. 'Phhbbrr' to you mr.M :P !

Considering the fact that I come across as a snob – courtesy nothings aplenty (she thought so at first). I am arrogant- courtesy him- M, (in the beginning, yes.) I am rude beyond belief- courtesy another pal (when the grumpy mood strikes me). Hey but I am not that bad! Sigh!

Then he went on about when we meet, I am always making fun and I “cackle” with glee when he is my target. Makes me sound like a witch! So I was like, fine from now I will bat my eyelashes, hover close and look into your eyes and say, “M… you have come, I am soo happy now. My joy knows no bounds.” Maybe even let down a teardrop or two. He said “very funny you clown”, told me to join theatre he did!

Besides he was glad that I am more tomboyish since both of us are clowns (I beg to differ!) hmmfff. Then he starts laughing. I was like what is so funny…I cant imagine you acting really feminine…
*Blink blink*
I was struck dumb! He was still laughing!
“I so am” was my immediate response, the loling started again…he was like you wouldn’t even know where to start. Monster!!!!! He was like its okay, I accept you with all your flaws, friends and all that… say what? Hmmpff!

Well then we drifted off to other topics with the usual ‘I argue you argue and no we will not come to any conclusion’ scenario. I finally hit the bed by three and now I am really sweepyy but I have to sit here and do the pretty and smile.

V-Day all the Pink and the Red...bleh

So I did not post anything on Valentines Day, big deal! I didn’t post anything because I didn’t have anything to write about. I mean other than getting irritated with all those hearts in every other shop…I did go out and buy a bunch of these huge red Gerberas for my friends. Unfortunately the shopkeeper thought I am out to buy stuff for my guy, kept insisting that I should buy a bunch of roses instead. I told him no, I didn’t want roses and besides I had to give these flowers to ten different people and I wanted it to look different. He was shocked. I said umm... for my friends umm... girls. He calmed down after that. But you should have seen the look on his face. Hee hee.

We (hostel ppl) flopped the idea of dinner; the warden was busy making something special (cant hurt her feeling you know). AFJ, nothing aplenty and I went for ice cream at Freez Zone. Yummy but half way through I was struggling to finish it. :D

Valentines day was the same old thing only some of the “lets meet up” plans have been shifted to the weekend. Weekday, in time, have to get back early, at work…blah blah. If only they would make the in time in hostel 11 or something. Wishful thinking I know. Ohh I got a few gifts from those lil monkeys in hostel. Quite a surprise! Thank you guys.

We also did have messages floating around that said “ to all those who are single…. Happy Independence Day” Amen to that! :D

Lazy! And I Like It!

The weekend has gone and here I am, staring at yet another long week. This weekend was nice and lazy. I spent the whole of Saturday in the hostel. Pure bliss! I didn’t do anything else except load the washing machine and sit with a book. I had a fellow hostel mate for company. We just spent the day reading, sleeping and eating chocolates. I was quite happy about the “I have nothing to do” agenda on my list. So I was content with my Saturday and was looking forward to spend my Sunday along the same vein. It was not to happen.

So here I was sleeping in my dreamland of who knows where, when my lovely roomie bangs open the bathroom door. Oh great! I just turned over and went off to my sweet land of do nothing dreams. When I hear this stupid phone ringing in my ear. It was the alarm. Sheesh! Switched it off and I pull the sheet over my head. Happy and cocooned in my mosquito net when my roomie puts on the light! Argghhh!

At home if someone disturbs my sweet slumber (my sis usually) I tend to throw things, anything I can get my hands on. Of course I don’t do that to mom and dad but I do yell at the top of my lungs “I am on holiday I deserve my rest”. But snowy nahh he does not disturb me a bit, if he tries to wakes me I pat him off to sleep.

So where was I before I took the detour... ahh yes, the roomie switching the lights on. When she did see my grumpy face she quickly switched it off calling me a lazy bum. Ya well, I am not the only one who sleeps till eleven or was that twelve? Anyway, right when I was going to sleep the phone rings…oh man someone sure wanted me to kill them. It was nothings aplenty. Since I am all bark and no bite (usually) I picked the call and chucked the idea of sleepy sleep.

She had called to decide on a birthday gift for a pal, so I went out for shopping. After shopping came back to hostel to sleep. Only to realize I had to go for a play around seven in the evening. So went and got ready and three of us headed down to the auditorium. Sat down to watch one of the most agaonising plays of all times. I would not lay blame on the play but on the director and the actors. After an hour I could not take it anymore and we walked out. Went off to see the lifestyle sale, horrible stuff and men were more horrible there. There were more interested at ogling than buying. When will they ever learn?

While getting back we stopped at the petrol bunk. While we were waiting, we see these two clowns on a bike doing the “ I am staring at you, what you gonna do look”. So I stared rite back and looked them both up and down. They had already started squirming by then…and once we started laughing at those fools, they took off real fast. That’s all it takes. *Evil grin*

Life! It has its moments…

Over the week…

Went for Harry Potter again, a friend had not seen the movie. I had a nice juicy burger (not to mention the calories within) at galloping gooseberry. Saturday was quite hectic, shopping with a pal, the movie, and library and of course playing around in the hostel at night.

I finally did see RDB and I was really disappointed. I guess you need to read what nothings aplenty had to say about it. I really liked the character of ‘sukhi’. My phone bill has come and I am proud to say it did not cross the thousand mark. Wait till dad hears this, he will be so proud of me. I am quite surprised actually coz the bill is quite low, I aint complaining. Never look a gift horse in the mouth and all that.

I went shopping and I spent a huge amount in Fab India. Well couldn’t help it. The shop was in the way. Had gone to book tickets for RDB in the morning and while I was walking back, I saw the shop. It was inevitable *shakes head*. It was calling to me you see. Well my hostel mate did give me this “here we go again” look when I dragged her into the shop. But she made me buy the stuff; I wasn’t even planning to buy. I ended up buying this beautiful skirt that my lovely hostel mates call “the banjara skirt” and a neat top to go with it. I wasn’t even planning on buying the top, honestly but it just happened. Now I am wondering how dad is going to take it when he sees my account details. *Sigh*

Maybe snowy will rip the statement before dada gets it…or maybe not. Ok next month no shopping. I will be a good girl and stop this shopping spree I am on. God please help me! Pretty please! I need suggestions to buy a real neat gift for a friend of mine. I have been slightly mean and rude to him. So please suggest something nice…ummm but I am lil low on the …ahem …right now so I would really be grateful if you keep in mind the… ahem you know…when you suggest something. :P

This week has been the longest most torturous week ever! I never want to see this kind of week ever again! Lately got into this thing of bugging or simply put, driving people up the wall. Some people actually think I have a nasty temper and I loose my cool real quick! Awww, nahh I don’t really and all the yelling is just plain fun. ;)

Anyways the weekend is here (finally)!

Smarty Pants- Me!

Yes me, the smart ass that I am. I just don’t know how I end up doing …
First I go and bonk my forehead on the low ceiling. Well it wasn’t low actually. Its low only if you jump. And guess what I did? Ah yes, I jumped! And then *ouch* *ouch* and *eeeoouucchhh*

And guess who was there to see me act stupid? Ms. nothings aplenty, of course. While I was groaning in pain holding my head, she was trying hard to muffle her laughter. Sniff sniff, my feeling were really hurt. She did rub my head though!Later I got a bump on my head, goodie!

That was yesterday. Today I was in the “lets irritate ppl” mood. So here I was bugging the hell outta AFJ and nothings aplenty. Thankfully they didn’t slam the phone on me. *Phew!* :P

Lunchtime we are yapping, when, smarties that I am whack myself on the forehead. Same spot, oh yes! Why should I not whack myself on the same spot! Yes stupid like that. Kinda forgot I was sporting the bump on the forehead!

Then as we were leaving, I turn to whack nothings aplenty for something and I whack my hand against the door instead! Yes, I know!

Oh well the weekend is on its way, hoping that I will not do anything stupid! Not like I am planning to but you know things happen. Oh life cruel life!

All of you have a nice weekend. Me gonna sleep (hopefully) and eat and be happy.
Oh forgot, me going to see Rang De …

Have fun you guys!

No One but Me…

I heard some one
I turned for a glimpse,
I was wrong. No one was there.
On this long winding road I was alone,
I liked it that way.

The leaves were falling

falling till they nestled together,
Content in paving my path.
I heard that noise again.
Who could it be?
I turned to see, but I was alone.

And yet…
I realized then,
It was me…

My shadow rustling the dead leaves.
