Its that time of the year again!

The cold winter days and nights,

Wrapped up in my blanket,

Reading a book in the bed,

With a hot cup of tea on the window-sill,

Loads of holidays around,

Keeping the cellphone on silent mode,

Eating Christmas cake, peanuts,and a lot more stuff,

Too lazy to even comb my messy hair,

Wearing socks 24/7,

Sore throat and still gossipping loud on phone sometimes,

Ignoring my mom's protests all the time,

Laughing in that crazy tone,

Damn! Will it stay the same forever and ever?

This, people, is my version of 'Dilli ki Sardi'.

Brrrrr.... Time to head back to that tempting bed now.

Later~

The Birthday.

30th November
Your Birthday.
Your absence.
Your memories.
The helplessness.
The anger.
The despair.
The loneliness.
The tears.
The hopelessness.


Wish I could wish you a 'Happy Birthday'.
Hate to say it, but, 'May you rest in peace'.
Love always,
Rashmi

What were they thinking of???

I caught sight of this 90's song from the movie 'Khiladi' few days back on the television- 'Waada raha sanam' starring Akshay Kumar and Ayesha Jhulka.

:|

A beautiful song but the video actually made me roll down on the floor and laugh like I'd never laughed before.

ummm Ok ....a slight exaggeration on my part there but I'm close.

I mean if you've already seen it I need tell no more.

And if you haven't , yet, that is.......HOW COULDN'T YOU?????

The song starts with Ayesha Jhulka running with her dupatta flying above her and smiling at the same time. Contradicts the illusion that a dog is running after her, eh?

Akshay Kumar before his makeover days, wearing a white shirt and a black pair of jeans .....and with a puppy dog hairstyle....oh not to forget the white sneakers....trying his bit to look like a college going cool guy, if ever there was one. Hmmmph.

And the best part was Ayesha Jhulka. The first thing which strikes me is the hairstyle. I don't think I'd be able to do it justice even if I tried my level best.ATROCIOUS is the word. Not to forget the Huge ruffle on her head.:|

I wouldn't be seen dead in one. -gulps-

The white 'Frock-styled salwar suit' she's wearing is hideous. So is the make up. Yup, the bindi too.The designer, the make up man and the hair stylist must have been a bunch of sadists to have come up with that. I mean ....WHAT THE HELL WERE THEY THINKING OF?????

I mean she was a very pretty actress. Poor thing.

The only video I can think of right now which beats this one is the 'TOHFA' song featuring Jeetendra and Sri Devi.

We've got such classics, haven't we?

-sighs-

something special I just found again.

Pinchu you're missed so much.

Celebration means......
A winter evening.
Four friends.
Pouring rain.
Four glasses of chai.

Celebration means......
Hundred bucks of petrol.
A rusty old bike.
And an open road.

Celebration means......
Maggi noodles
Your friends
A hostel room.
4.25 a.m.

Celebration means......
3 old friends.
3 separate cities.
3 coffee mugs.
1 internet messenger.

Celebration means......
Rain on a hot tin roof.
Pakoras deep-frying.
Neighbours dropping in.
A party.

Celebration means......
You and mom.
A summer night.
A bottle of coconut oil.
A head massage.
Gossiping about absent family members.

You can spend
Hundreds on birthdays,
Thousands on festivals,
Lakhs on weddings,
But to celebrate
All you have to do is spend your Time with your loved ones.
This New Year lets promise to keep in touch with our loved ones........

Virtual versus Real.

Online crushes, online poetry,online craziness,online friends, pouring your heart online, online marriages, and what not!

How much of virtual life is real and vice versa?Ever wondered about it?

Well I have, in fact I do...often.

Five years back, I'd have called anyone stupid who'd have dared to argue about the fact that a virtual internet life often intercepts one's real life. Now I'd call myself a fool not to realise this much.

I've made loads of friends on Orkut, even though Facebook is considered to be the more 'in' thing. Well, I guess I'm still old-fashioned. -sighs-

Not to say that all my Orkut friends are close to me, but still there are quite some who play important roles in my life, so much so that few of them mean more to me than some good real-life friends. (Real-life friends-No offence mates. You all are still special.;) )

When exactly did these close 'virtual' friends cross the threshhold of virtuality-to-reality I'll never know for sure. My birthdays are made special because of these special 'virtual' people who call me at 12 at night, struggling to be the first ones to wish me. I look forward to their visits to Delhi and talking to them. Meeting them wasn't strange at all and it felt as if I'd known them all my life.

Earlier I'd feel I was one of the rare crazy creatures around and had lost the hope of meeting someone like me. But now I know better.Late night conversations, giggling on stupidest of things, keeping in touch with people who have drifted afar, singing crazy B-grade songs on every situation...AAAH Life is a bliss thanks to the 'virtuality'.

Sing

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G1f2M5G9KG8

Baby, you've been going so crazy
Lately nothing seems to be going right
Solo, why do you have to get so low
You're so...
You've been waiting in the sun too long
But if you sing, sing, sing, sing, sing
For the love you bring wont mean a thing
Unless you sing, sing, sing
Colder, crying on your shoulder
Hold her, and tell her everything's gonna be fine
Surely, you've been going too early
Hurry cos no-ones gonna be stopped
Na na na
But if you sing, sing, sing, sing sing
For the love you bring wont mean a thing
Unless you sing, sing, sing
Baby, there's something going on today
But I say nothing, nothing, nothing
Nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing........................................

The sunshine's lost!

I thought probably time would make me forget things. But I now realize maybe not. In a weird way I really wouldn't like that to happen as well. I want to cling on to the memories. I want to miss what I lost. I want to hold on to the bygones. I want to compare the before and after. I just want you back. I don't care how, but I do. I want the recent past to be a horrible nightmare and wake up to the Holi of 2009 with your chirpy voice on phone reprimanding me not to gorge on too many gujiyas and end up getting fat.Telling me the boring routine of your work. Talking to me during one of your patrol-checks. Telling me about everything. Listening to all the crap I tell. Laughing at lame jokes of mine. Giggling in the funniest of manners. Making me imitate and annoy you. Damn, I miss you.:(

So hard not to be forlorn, so hard just to move on. Rising up is a brand new day, as that sunshine's lost.

Silence is as Deep as Eternity; Speech, Shallow as Time.

Pinchu - the essence of everything that's nice, my best friend, relative and my confidante' !
Its so damn hard to believe that you're not gonna be there anymore. It breaks my heart to even think about it.
Life's so unfair and I don't need any further proof. I won't ever forget all the masti we did during the last couple of years. I just wish to God I could bring u back at any cost. I haven't cried for anyone but thinking about you now brings tears to me.
Sometimes I wonder if I didn't really know you much, would the pain be any less? but then I would be deprived of all things YOU which I wouldn't want to change at any cost. You were the best thing I'd ever known. Everyone around you couldn't help but love you. My own mom loved you more than she loved me I guess and guess what, it never even made me jealous.
I don't know how we're all going to cope without you, without listening to your lively giggle, your eccentric ways, your purity, your love for things around you, your weird laughing styles, and what not.
Life couldn't be worse for dada n dadi(your parents) who loved u so much n ur sister Chunnu. I don't know how to console them when they're down. I just hope they will move on and remember the happiness associated with you.
I wish you were back with us again.
I wish I could take you to see Akshardham temple.
I wish I could take you out for the promised treat.
I wish I could undo the pain you went through.
I wish I could meet u this summer and other coming summers.
I wish I could play cards with you again till 2 o clock at night.
I wish I could write better for you.
I wish...........

Love always! Stay happy wherever you are.
