• Disclaimer : I wanted to write about this one on the same day, considering my age old memory problem and the fact that ‘I suck at cars’ !! If some car enthusiasts, find things misplaced, then kindly contact me offline (not on the blog!!). Someone likes to see to new things, learn them, even if…

  • No..No..No..

    This is what happened to a friend on the holy eve of Valentine’s day. She went out with a guy on a date and the jerk ruined her evening by being with his EX..on the phone, of course !!!  What eh loser !!! I am not a dating rule book, but I think the love…

  • pinder ponder

    Not a really happening week. Lotsa food for the brain, though.  The term “mother tongue” has always eluded me. Now I know why one feels a sense of belonging towards it. Sometimes just the sound of it is so soothing, its like a river flowing through a desert. (My metaphors are getting cliched day by…

  • I missed you…

    How many of you miss those special characters in class, who cannot stop asking all sorts of questions to the teacher, without thinking, without caring ? Well I do. And if you don’t then you just don’t have a heart!! These guys and girls make the class more interesting, especially if the professor is clueless…

  • To my beloved…

    ,

    Today mom dad officially (after I reluctantly said YES) announced that they would be selling off my TVS scooty. For some reasons she has been acting weird and dad was kind of getting bugged with the regular mechanic trips. Plus me not having around must have been a major discomfort for him and her.  As…

  • I am in those years of my life, when there are hook ups and engagements and weddings taking place left, right and center, around me. And the perpetual (at least for the time being) question that haunts my dear ones is this – when will we hear about you ? I am like..What ????? Abhi…

  • Friendship

    I read an article about friendship somewhere. I don’t know in which category my friends are. But I do know that, I “love” them all.  So no matter how much we fight, what happens between us, if we keep in touch or not, if we get too busy with our lives, if we do or…

  • Detour tales

    In the past week, something really silly happened with me. The reasonable “me” (R) and stubborn kid “me” (S) got themselves involved in a real tough duel. R (half an hour before an evening class): Get up and move.  S (as usual): But do we really have to go ? I read the chapter with…

  • Read this for more. After all the hype, criticism and accolades it has received, it’s time for some action. Not only from the makers but “us” the civilized and ‘happy in their own cocoon and reality’ ones. If films are a mirror to our society, culture and sensitivities, then we as a society can do far…

  • Am I traditional ?

    I guess so.. geez.. I mean every time I am offered beef/pork to eat, I remember all those stories of Mangal Pandey and the struggle for our independence and I tell people, ‘It’s not allowed in my religion’ !!!! This coming out from a person who is not religious in the conventional terms (except for…
