still rambling.. yes, still

Its normally one exhausting exam per week.. followed by the yummest food that I can hunt/order in/pluck out of the cupboard. I think I actually ended up writing a bit like this during the exam.. Imagine. how interesting a read for the examiner, no? Luckily I wasn't testing his/her response to the Indian-English "no?" theory. I love ending a perfectly correct Queens English statement with the most inappropriate Hindi-clucking-sound or word or aadat. :)
Have found what to wear (sort of) for The day ... but don't know where I'll be going.. or with whom. Well actually, there Are 7 people who I should be meeting... but divided into umm 5 groups(?).... If I have to meet people individually what do we call that? #notaparty
correct
but if we weren't defining by what it isn't?
#cosynon-groups.
okay... lets go with that.. but of those 5, lets subtract two as not happening... and umm 2 more as the laws of probability or something.. and add 1 as a surprise element (As always)... we have .. ?
Two. Two cosynon-groups :)
I think I'm the only one superrrrrrrr excited.. but well.. it Is my birthday.. oh God.... Fine.. I shall stop with the incessant yapping :)
Okay so heres what.. even if nothing works out as a plan-plan.. I will still
-drink loads of water
-get my picture taken (so I can stare at it when I'm 40 and it'll be like looking into a Mirror!..cause I'll look young-and-glow-y then... not cause I look old now.. duh.)
-eat some cake (ok, lots)
-start something positive that I'll continue for at least a year
-drive
-go for a walk
-connect
Okay, sounds a full and fabulous day anyway!
ps- speaking of fabulous.. an unexpected telecon with sh.. brilliant to connect on that... love and more love

enchanted

I want a snowfall kind of love..
nope, not the same post...
:)
but the song seems to be on repeat... 'wont you bury me in your quiet love?'
it would be easier to laugh it off, brush it aside, cover it with cynicism. no?
It doesn't take courage to know what you want.. You just need to be honest with yourself.
Plain sailing from there, I'm discovering.
cause I'm actually a snowfall kind of girl... :)
I hope you find what you discover what you're looking for
and when you do.. Hope you get it...
and if you don't.. may you take something even more precious away from that..
a lesson learned and challenge overcome.
I want a snowfall kind of love...

I want a snowfall kind of love
the kind of love that quiets the world
I want a snowfall kind of love
as I'm a snowfall kind of girl
I want a snowfall kind of love
that lights up the sky from below
I want a snowfall kind of love
that brings people to their windows

wont you bury me in your quiet love?
bury me in your quiet love
bury me in your quiet love
and we will blow away

I want a snowfall kind of love
the kind of love that keeps you in bed all day
I want to walk through with you
and watch it all melt away
wont you bury me in your quiet love?
bury me in your quiet love
bury me in your quiet love
and we will blow away...

To sum up

the font and the format is so outrageously unconducive to reading that I actually don't want to read the previous post! All is see are drunk slightly delirious words popping out with spluttering impolite-spitting urgency. The kind of conversation you walk away from patting your napkin against your spit-drenched cheeks. Remember the exaggerated windscreen wiper glasses in Main Hoon Na? (the shahrukh movie with sushmita as the hot (gasp)chemistry teacher?) Anyway.. point of the previous was... I'm super excited about my birthday and well, I'm super excited about my birthday :) cheers! May you also be super excited for yours :)

herebirthdaybirthdayHEREbirthdaybirthday

The format of the blog has become a little warped. It seems to never sit well in the assigned design. Speaking of which.. lets play a game.. What all can you possibly GIFT a 23 year old? :D suggestions are more-than-welcome. the crazier (but still useful) the better :) oh OUTRAGEOUS maybe. I'm excited for the Biiiiiiiiiirthday. though really, when I try and figure out Why, I do draw a blank. I mean S has exams. (booo...but I got her gift already..YAY) A probably has Something J people have exams (like I do) V is out of town Basically... everyone is somewhat busy and I'm currently not in the mood to put together a home-music and crazy-not-drunk-dance scene. (though I floated the idea of of K in genie costume and hukkah... she wasnt too thrilled) What it comes down to is 1) throw me a surprise party. except, dont. because I won't have the right clothes at a moments notice and I don't like surprises too much. except if you're giving me a giant diamond ring spontaneously. that I'm open to IF I love you romantically. which I don't. so no surprises please. 2) call/text/mail me if you're free for THE day...today.tomorrow.or a week before THE day. so I know how to shuffle the groups around to meet everyone :) (see THIS is what I do.... the energy bubbles CONVINCE me its gonna be awesome..which it is.. even if the plan goes completely mad... which it also always does) 3) I am vaguely open to the idea of a beautiful bag. but this is only for mum. nobody else buy it please :) what was this post about? oh yes... ideas. I'm gonna be twennnnny threeeeeee ... Okay quick before-birthday resolution. Will buy a beautiful (flattering.ofcourse) dress. But thats really a desire not a resolution. and my real desire is mom and sister will buy me that dress without my having to accompany them shopping. YES> thats a wish. Resolution- weight loss? nah. okay, maybe 2 kgs. alright then.... 13year old I and 23year old I will be united in the weight loss dream. how... regressive. bah. whatever.... The BIRTHDAY IS COMING!!! (imagine a silky-brown spaniel rushing towards your open arms. thats it baby!) (really.... what is happening to the format?)

Golden Mood

Is- in the mood for some genuinely interesting conversation that may include *resonance in spirituality *the world of expensive and crap wines *the even more magnificent world of scotch *art..perhaps the parallel movement with literature? *underwater life... no more discussions on commerce, cinema or crackers (um. I liked the 'c' alliteration) NEW things to know from wildly interesting and eccentric individuals... too much to ask? I think its time to travel... chalo chale Greece ooooh or this beautiful museum on an island in Germany. I'm that flexible with travel plans. :)

no bark, less bite

so V & co. told me about this 3 hour trek on a sunday morn. It sounded like a good way to walk off those wai wai packets.. yes.. packetS anyway. until the price tag came up and I figured the company wouldn't compensate that mini void in the wallet. why should I pay you to make me walk? huh?? besides... until I'm officially raking in the pink 1000 rupee notes I should only spend them on essentials. Like The Body Shop stuff. and Flipkart books. (the last one was total crap by the way... not going to believe reviews by strangers again.. rippedoffwasi) since it is SO easy to find fault with everyone (the trek organizers. flipkart book reviewers... ) I'm going to bring to mind 3 wonderful things about the first four people who pop into my head F- funny, smart, charming (gentlemen, she is also available :) ) Ve- HILARIOUS, witty, warm (nope. isn't on the market...at all) eM- joyful, genuine, loving aR- smart, nice, considerate Its nice to know smart, funny, happy, loving people. :) God Bless

one of those all-over-the-place posts

I started to write an "I think" post, only with the disclaimer "as of now" trailing smoothly behind it. You know, the post that lists out a bunch of eclectic things that I sort-of kind-of maybe assume as correct. but I'm genuinely itching to write a post about the World Cup (mustrestrainself..or will be butchered by fanatic fans. argh).. Ah the pressure to live a happy peaceful life is tempting. Live and let live? ok ok.

but its still unfair that the majority get to have their say on social networking sites (which I secretly still visit every once in a while)... and I have to stay mum on threat of complete terrorization by the irrational Indian MOB.


YES. I'm talking about YOU. (probably)

To talk of more profound and world-altering things.. I'm no longer able to make out if I'm hungry or uhh.. not. The tummy is playing a funny hard-to-get game with me. Organs I tell you. Back to work I say and the safest thing to do is consume tons of water till all is well in the physical body. Tootsie and Mitu send their love. Ta... Ps- I'm curious about the identity of one of my readers... will you oblige? Pps- Does anyone else notice a pattern where I get more regular on the blog close to the exams?

compatibility

Wavelengths are the funniest things. You can be totally on the same page with someone and then suddenly the balance shifts and the vision is skewed. And then there are those others, those precious few that God hands out because He knows you need someone who knew you when you were young(er) and stupid(Er) to talk to every once in a while. and it works.. because the idiotic choices you make as you prance along the years... they mirror that in their own unique billion-miles-away way. and magically, 7 months into not talking.. you can still pick up the phone..swap notes on the latest..and be on that same very page nodding along. Veeee is awesome.. and moronic. but I love her. We're both donkeys from the same grassland...
