Inevitability
Wonder what it is that made you see
Pursue beyond fear of indignity
What it was, that I wanted to hear
And watch your lips, mouth to me
No hesitation or sidestepping
You came right up
Looked me in the eye
And then we knew
We knew right then
You and me
Had come to an end
An end of sorts,
Nothing too dramatic
Just an exchange of vows
(How odd the word
To use at such a time)
But we vowed together,
To never be near
In happiness or sorrow
Lend not a hand or ear
No shoulder to weep on
Would either of us seek
Maybe a smile of recognition
When we would find our will weak
That’s all that happened
No big deal you see
It’s been known to happen,
Just not so openly
Normally, one disagrees
And turns the cheek, to reality
But that’s why I like you
That’s why we’re so great
We understand it’s over,
We know the truth
No ones in denial
In search of a refuge
It had to happen,
Statistics don’t lie
Though we all start out
In a mood, to them, belie
Life gives a chuckle
As it watches us part
Moving on, alone at last
No need for sympathy
Or a pat on the back
I told you, it had to happen
And it happened at last…

Something to tease those grey cells with!!!
I am going to write about a random utility based object. Its something most of us use in our daily life- namely, a soap. To be precise, its L’Occitani (Extra-Gentle Soap). I normally don’t remember the exact names of soap (and certainly not French ones) but this one happens to be in front of me. In fact, we will discuss in another blog (someday, god willing) why there is a cake of unopened soap in front of my computer screen. However, today is a self-assigned test of my writing skills and a declaration of my complete and utter lack of anything-better-to-do!
L’Occitane
In a very recent episode of Grey’s Anatomy (this Sundays to be specific) the general audience (which consists of hormonally charged women) witnessed a man unable to recognize and name a common object-a glass. Apparently one part of the brain is allotted to the emotions and the other to the identification and memory of...well...Things. So I am also going to attempt to look at the same things differently.
Infact, this reminds me of another episode of Oprah (I think I may be rightly accused of watching too much TV) where a man had no recollection of anything. He started out in life at 30 with a complete lack of emotional baggage and cynical notions. How altogether wonderful and horribly scary!
Coming back to the soap….well it says it’s a soap but I guess we have to show some good faith in the manufacturers before we start scrubbing our wet bodies with it. Its packaging also claims that it hails from the land of Champagne (excuse that…I just learnt a few short weeks ago that only France has the right to call White Wine ‘Champagne’ and here I was thinking that they were two slightly different things…well they are…but if we start discrimination based on the origin of something…things would get very messy and perhaps racism would have to be re-defined.).
Its unobtrusive brown back also says that it’s a ‘vegetable soap’…hmm…I wonder what that means. Does it, as I have believed for so long, have vegetable oils? Or is it, slightly more improbably, a vegetable disguised as a soap? A task fit for a magician indeed or maybe a scientist will be able to crack the mystery in a few short centuries. I currently hold a low opinion of scientists based purely on a personal interaction with a student of medicine who has no inclination towards scientific research. It’s best if you don’t try and unearth the logic or connection, as time may prove that it doesn’t exist.
The cover also blabbers on incoherently about some chemicals in it. Words like helianthus annus (SUNFLOWER!!!!!!!!) and tetrasodium edta are also tossed around. (gasp! Even MS word doesn’t recognize them!....i am typing on MS because of th inconsistency of my internet connection and not because I am unable to spell to save my life…)
Now we have finally (wheeew) reached the end of my self-imposed task (wipes brow)…since I doubt anyone but moi will be willing to go through the above I will also try and insert some random insults for people I don’t like up there. (that should make you lazy bums re-read it !...*chuckles to self*)
Anyway now I am going to take your leave and drown myself in my preparation for the intensive study mode that I have to create…(I may sleep)…
Tata for now my sugarplumssss…*gags*…*has difficulty breathing*
*kicks the balls of the doctor who tries to save life…ahh this prejudice may prove fatal for me*….
Nighty night and be as good as your nature permits you to be!
Toodles!...:D

and just when you've figured out the next step...
just when you think life can't get any worse...out from somewhere pops up hope!...and not because something has changed or science has given us a concrete reason to keep it around (by the discovery of a vaccine that prevents people from putting on weight for example.)
Just randomly, the day starts looking brighter...and for no reason...and that, perhaps, is the best reason...cuz then you know ...you don't need a reason to be happy!...
you just need to look around and discover joy!
also, given enough time, the choices you made yesterday seem a lot more reasonable when seen in day/tube light!!!...
will fill you in on the days events later!...
one good thing about pseudo-heartache...sure makes you wanna write a whole lot more!
:D
ps-"and just when you've figured out the next step..." is continued by..."life takes a random shortcut by leaping over a bush!..."...
yes yes....allegories are so much fun!!!!.....:D:D

What i was driven to actually put on MS Word!
*An attempt at being positive*
Some reasons for the world being a happy-sunny-optimistic place
1.My nails have finally, by the grace of the filer, arranged themselves in a cute rounded shape
2.I walked for 3 kilometers, did 300 odd crunches and jogged for 2 straight minutes while listening to shaggy. (i.e. I’m healthy and the endorphins are kicking in)
3.Have finally read MacFlecknoe (and also know how to spell it!)
4.I have a diamond ring on my finger (always nice to think of! :)..)
5.I also have an unopened bottle of Ralph Lauren’s ‘Romance’ to look forward to! (feels very happy)
6.The disengagement with the non-healthy for self-esteem guy has been successfully carried out….almost like a detoxification after drug abuse!.. Only this one was for the soul!
7.My exams will get over on the 25th…and also start on the 4th…lets just focus on them getting over!...*optimistic haze*
8.Ayushi called me ‘pretty’ yesterday and I didn’t even force her to say it!
9.I finally deleted my ‘Unexpected Awee Moments’ folder…*sighs*…the cell phone also feels a lot lighter!
10.Swetha is asking me for advice….consistency in life is appreciated…and no sarcasm….mean it!(the only crumpled leaf being abhishek’s verbosity!)
11.I can write reasonably well!... seriously…really well!.......*modesty isn’t really in vogue you see)
12.My balance is a healthy 135.44 Rupees….Healthy as my 10 paise Vodafone-Vodafone scheme is still on!...
13.Had dinner right now…Indian Food is amazing!....:D
14.The zit on my left cheek seems to be drying up…It now may even pass off as a pink mark!...:P
15.Got my eyebrows etc. ‘done’…feeling pretty darn beautiful…(wearing pink also does that to me!...old snuggly old navy shirt rocks!!)
16.I was just reminded I was guy-less…well that’s something to cheer for!..ohh correction…I’m committed guy-less…thus liberated and have a thousand percent more chance of meeting and legitimately falling for the perfect one who should be out there somewhere…*gags*
17.My internet seems to be relatively consistent!
18.I share a cordial love/hate/like relationship with my family…which only goes to show that maturity really does come with age…theirs that is…lmao…okay okay…I’m talking about mine!...
19.I have a wonderfully painful/amazing/tough year that awaits me….i’m actually looking forward to it!...seriously!
*note to self: don’t end in abstract feel-good way…end in rational practical feel-good way*…..
20.I have 19 reasons to be happy with my life…and I didn’t really have to scratch my head too hard to come up with them…either I’m extremely talented…or very lucky…it’s a win-win situation both ways!...
Ps- I’m going to believe its both!...and something great is totally waiting for me!...actually, it may even be LOOKING for me!...
MUAHHHSSS!...*love to all*
Pps- ended in predictable way after all...but really....who cares!?!....:D...
*smiling big and living huge indeed!!!*
