random....**$@.....shreds...

I finish my exams tomorrow....been waiting for this impatiently...being pretty much cut off from the rest of the world....isn't all that pleasant...gets on my nerves at times....and to release tension I lose myself in the virtual world of movies...and my fantasies....

I tend to get very very uncomfortable...when I am by myself after sun set...Cannot begin to imagine this horrible feeling of sheer loneliness that begins to creep in....Although I know nothing could go wrong...I mean sucurity is good here...but something doesn't feel alright if its just me ....and it freaks me out....

Im reallly really excited about goin home in some months time...Plan to be super stingy to save up money for my plans....but my fiends are starting to complain already when I mention this...not much going out all that often....Over the past few nights I have been dreaming about my childhood nest...the garden....I used to run off to and hide from my mum..when she was trying to get me to do a sheet of maths problems...or trying to shove boring chicken stew down my oesophagus....I still hate chiken stew...

Every time mom tried to feed me something nutritious I would consider her my biggest enemy and plot ways to escape from her clutches...I used to be one Naughty kid....mommy would get complains every now and again from school...about me beating up a guy..or bullying someone...at lunchtime....and one line that never failed to appear on my report card was "she is very talkative in class"....that was something all teachers would consistently winge about....but over the years no one has been able to do anything to change it....

Those good old days...makes my eyes moist when I remember them...gone never to return...I had been wanting to go back to the house I spent the initial 12 years of my childhood in....for a long time...but have been caught up with a lot of things...and have thus been procrastinating....but I am goin to take a walk down memory lane this time when I go home.....my dreams have lately been a montage of the itsy bitsy slices of those 12 years...

It feels wierd knowing when I go home this time..not all the familiar faces I am used to seeing would be around...I hate being all grown up....and seeing that sense of security and bonding I felt would last for ever between me and my friends...gradually disappear....not that its always the case that things aren't working out for us ...but more that life takes us in different directions...and I would never have thought five years back that I would be far far away from home on one bright winter afternoon typing up this blog...and being all nostalgic...

I still remember the times when I used to play dressups with my cousins....lock ourselves in a room and pull out all the pretty sarees and dresses and try them on...and pose in front of the mirror....it was so much fun...I happened to mention this to my roommate the other day...and told her about how no one wants to play dressups with me anymore coz they thnk I'm being childish...and she came up to me last nite and said she would play with me after i finish my exams...YOOHOOO....

the things people give up to be grown up...makes me sad...

life or the so called life

sometimes it makes me wonder...what is the purpose of living the life im living...I mean living life like a nobody....is not something appealing...yeah sure when you are born you parents, other family members and neighbours perhaps rejoice at the miracle of birth yet again...a new life being among them... but that sure is short lived...over the span of "life" on the face of this earth...we also tend to make friends (some very close ones one could treasure for life) and some not that close... & acquaintances of our own....and then if you travell across the barrier of this life and into the next one..the one called afterlife....again sure a few people would miss you...but that is all...

I cannot remember when I lost my desire to strive for a few things I thought were really important to me....and I can't remember when a few people I thought would be there with me for life...left my side even before I had begun to understand the complexities of life...and it hurt a lot...suddenly finding myself alone..without the familiar faces around....but I guess this is life...and you learn to live it as it comes and move on....Moving on is probably one of the most commonly used phrases...one can come across....evryone is advising evryone to move on with life all the time...its easier said than done...

especially if you tend to be one who cries bucketfulls when watching melodramatic films and get dewy eyed at the merest mention of loved ones....Its kindof embarassing I tell you...

I am very happy today due to a variety of diferent reasons...but somewhere at the back of my mind...I feel a tad melancholy...I dreamt about things I thought I had gotten totally over and thought that I had managed to get out of my system...it seemed pretty surreal too...but was a stupid dream after all....but not everyone gets the thing they wish for....wishful thinking is fun but is limited to being a figment of our imagination.....mostly....

Oh I wish I could get so many different things....and be with some people....I would like to be with....wishful thinking...but i so so wish...for things to change...

review...

watched yet another french film...anthony zimmer....backdrop is france obviously....watching it ...i found myself lost in another world...some effect...good flick...recent too...a 2005 release...to me it seems....thrs something magical abt the country itself...when ever i tell my friends about the french connection (oh well my obssession with france!!) everyone tells me french people are rather rude and biggest snobs among EU...and its just in films that france is portrayed as i see it...which im in love with...and reality is different from the virtual world....i know its true...but the child inside me tells me never to let go my imaginations...and live just in reality....
If I were given a choise to live anywhere on tis globe it would definitely be paris....i can't remember what triggered my obssession with france...but its been there for a decent while...and seems to be growing intense with passage of time....I have always been a dreamer....My dreams are rather bizarre too..i must say...i wake up most mornings thinking...wow that was cool...i wish it were for real...at one point of time used to be sci-fi dreams...not had much of those in recent past...neway...getiing back to what i was saying...One of my resolutions this year was to at least start attending classes to learn French...hoping itll happen....
have so much to do this year....hope they all...or at least most of them happen...times flying tooo....so hopefully NOvember will be knocking on my door sooon...enough... ;)

SlIcE it up...

xams start in less than a fortnights time...and i still have an assignment to submit...im mostly at home these days..no more classes for this semester...its just brushing up and studying...with P gone and S never at home...tend to get lonely a lot...so when ever im not studying i either listen to music...or think abt things(my usual habbit of thinking too much) or i have been watching lot of friends and movies whenever im taking a break...

just watched this french (there goes my obssession!!)film called monique...genre says romantic comedy....wierd...about this couple who break up..the wife was cheating on the husband...and she moves out of home with "the other 1" and meanwhile the guy (alex) orders this silicon life size doll with the perfect figure every guy would kill for....and being all by himself he renovates a massive part of the house and makes it all pink...drapes..to sheets...to toilet seat cover to car...and so obssessed is he...he goes and buys lingerie (really nice expensive ones two....i loved most of them!) for the doll...so hes spending days "playing"with Monique..untill his friends comes by and finds out and then word reaches his other acquaintances and wife...and she gets mad at him..jealous of a moulded doll with huge tits...!!! was a funny flick....ends well...

that was my break...its almost 1am...and im as fresh as an owl...shld hopefully be able to stay up the nite...and work on some stuff....planning on finishing a lot of stuff this weekend....I also watched Ironman last tuesday...reminded me how HOT Robert downey Jr. is....i have a thing for older men...evryone thinks its wierd...but neway....its a must watch...a fab flick....would love to watch it again....
and i saw nine months which made me realise Hugh grants a spunk too...theres so many good looking fellas...around....i wish i cld have my pick....oh well not tht im complaining with my current options...:) im happy....so that is a teeny tiny slice of my life...as of now......

a bit of this and a tad of that...

havnt blogged in eons....well just not much to write or being too preoccupied or lazy...mostly....semesters about to end....and it seems i have stopped complaining about life...started to accept it the way it is...taking things as it comes...and with practise fighting emotions is getting a lot easier tooo....well not doing a great job..but its woking somehow...

don't know where time slips through....before i knew half the year is gone almost...I wish time went faster...eagerly waiting for year end....the someone....after all seems to be interested in me ...a lot...well knowing common friends finally pays off...sweet...neway...ihave een trying to be selfish, mean, a pain in the ass for a while..and glad to say ihave suceeded in what i endeavoured to be...its a wierd pleasure that i derive being a biatch with biatches....

havent been in touch with friends for a long long time....everyones so damn busy with their own thing....hardly get time to exchange hi-s and hello-s...kinda sad....coz nothing feels as good as a healthy, hearty conversation...aka "bangalir adda" with old buddies....one of the many stress busters....miss my roomie...thr nutcase is in india these days....have the bloody exams in some time....can't wait for it to finish asap....and then move on and actually work on my research...which is far more interesting that few dumb units i have to do....

uuummmmm aaaaaaahhhhh.....crap...its late...off for now.....

....winter sets in..

its winter again...that time of year that i absolutely detest...im pretty lazy as it is...and this rainy winter...makes me wanna curl up in my warm blanket tucked in with my Big Green cushion like a millipede...as a kid i used to be kindof fascinated by milipedes...how they curl up at the slightest touch of the stick i used to try and poke em with... ;) all else i mean life is goin on somehow....studies goin ok....im concerned about a million things rite at this moment...and i wish i could be someplace else rite at this moment....spent time with someone...i didnt use to like taht much...not tht i do now..but was happy to see that persons making an effort to change for the better....got to know certain things about someone i kindof liked for a while...nd was unhappy to learn that something that was meant to be between us has reached someone it should'nt have...!! I can't understand what the issue is with keeping certain things to oneself....i mean....can't people respect a request..!?! this is the N-th time i have been through something like this....i ask someone something...or tell someone something...nd tell them explicitly not to go discuss it...nd next thing i knw..(the world being a small place) i hear it from someone else ...bloody annoying....

i have my presentation this week...nd then goin out next friday....got dragged into it....tryin to set someone up...but its gone all wrong now..nd im stuck with this someone...DAMN...!!been dreaming abt india for a while now..tried booking tickets today...they are so bloody expensive:(...have to be an abslute miser to be able to save up enough for my plans enroute too....to make things worse....things havent been goin rite with few other "friends"...i have tried setting things right...without success..i mean...u can try only so much...i have given up...after quiet a few trials at setting things rite.... way too much goin on in liferite now...

but theres isnt much to ;look forward too..which is pretty sad....but im dealing with it somehow...it makes me cranky though...
i think i have complained enough...gotta work on something now....

whats goin on??!!

i dont understand what the hell is on with people around me....some behave like asses for no reason whatsoever.....some want too much attention....nd when not given enough of it....they go psycho...nd start ignoring you....i have loads to work on at the moment....with presentations and essays lined up one after the other....not that im complaining....this keeps me busy nd mind of other not so important affairs....been feeling a little sick lately...some of it is the bloody weather and some of it these other things that are causing disturbances in my system...

so many of my so called acquaintances have been trying to hook me up with people....someone i know brings up a new guy everytime i meet her....sick of people asking me the same damn questions all the time...not like marriage is the end of all worries....in life...if it were so i wld be so willing to go ahead...but neway....rite now im a bit brain dead...after staring at my laptop for some 5 odd hours....did manage to get a significant bit of work done....

I tagged along with P to her nieces birthday party yesterday...and was overjoyed to see so many adorable little kids...the ages varied from 2 months to 10 years...i was playing with two 8 and 9 month old kids...respectively....one of the moms was all too ready nd glad for me to take the kid away from her....poor thing was so tired from changing diapers and nursing it all the time....havnt interacted with kids that young in a while...they make me so happy...love em...little bundles of JOY....

seems like my dinners done...nd my tummies making signals to fill it up...signing off...

TiMe OuT...



been really busy for quiet a while....last weekend especially....witnessed Indian Cricket team leave SCG with wide grins on their faces...that was a memorable day....i had so much fun....initially my seat was in a bay where there were mostly ozzies on al sides...so i moved to the bay that seated cheering screaming people clad in the light blue jersey....nd there was so much energy in the crowd....

ir was a bright sunny day...few clouds floating around in the depths of the blue firmament...nd i got nicely roasted tanned in the sun...(damn!!)

the previous day was mardi gras...and i had gone to the city to get a sneek peek of what its all about...there were tons and tons of gay/lesbians parading hand in hand....there was a bit of flashing of bare breasts...and fat actually obese men walking around in g-strings ( looked so ridiculous)but yeah....in the pic below...its men btw...actually transvestites....in nun outfits...

a GuD LaUgH...

the weathers turned nasty again...its been raining incessantly over the past few days...not incessantly but mostly raining...even had a hailstorm on tuesday...a violent one....yesterday was my first day at work...coz i have uni now...this was week one... :)and this is also my last week at work..quitting after tommorrow...glad that wnt have to put up with my boss perving and looking at the wrong things instead of making eye contact when we converse....

neway...i had to change my topic of research due to lack of personal data..phew..im prettty pissed because of this..but i made up my mind about a few things that i want to do...and im sticking to them...neway...my roomie P and I keep emailing each other about updates about each other and about people around us at work...all day long......its kindof fun...shes crazier than im..a nutcase...nd fun to be with.....i had to pick up my layby (red Trench COat...i look so HOT in it)...*blush* *blush*** beet root...hehe....but yeah...neway..and then she and I went to another store...and we were playing this game where we would have to talk only in hindi...not a single word of english allowed ....and i was impressed with my hindi vocabulary...better than hers...yipppeeeee!!!!but a few words where we were having hot debates were...didnt know what lingerie is called in hindi...P came up with chaddi baniyan..which i didnt agree to...and she reckons pustika...is notebook while i think pustika can be any book....guys...can you please help me out there...???

nd my psycho roomie (the other one) is gettign out of controll...im scared these days to be newhere near her...she has her screaming routines every alternate day past midnight..when P and I are both trying to catch some beauty sleep....one of these days i could murder her out of frustration....its damn frustrating when someone is so inconsiderate even after spellling it out for them..that look u might not have to wake up early and go to wrk or UNi...but we do..so since we share a place we shld look out for each other...Selfish BIATCH...

and nother interesting inference we have drawn from a certain big red Pimple on exctly the same location on both our cheeks is...that after we have had chole bature from a restaurant last week this pimple came into existense on exactly the same day and man it HURTS!!! and at exactly the same location on a different cheek though....i have to keep making different manouveres with my side fringe to hide my pimple...its pretty red...and im sure someone standing a mile away can see it clearly...DAMN...y me GOD!!!

nd to continue from where i was, people started giving us wierd looks....P has refused to go out in public with me much these days..coz yesterday ....i cracked up laughing...at the grocery store..when i saw this lanky dark LOOSER with his hair tied up in a pony tail...trying to act all smart....was quiet a site...hihi...i cdnt help but laugh on his face...neway...i promised not to repeat it again...before she agreed to talk to me...and then we got back home...and we played the ad and serial music guessing game...and i was surprised to see that i remembered all the popular ad songs by heart.....we hummed to the tunes of...
1)washing powder nirma...washing powder nirma...doodh si safedi...nirma se aaye...blah blah..( i know the rest..not in a mood to type it all up) hihi

2)vajradanti vajradanti vicco vajradanti...vicco powder vicco paste...ayurvedic jaributiyo se bana sampoorn swadesi...etc. etc..

3)jab ghar ki raunak barani ho...deewaro ko jab sajana ho...nerolac...NEROLAC...

4)vicco turmeric nahi cosmetic...vicco turmeric ayurvedic cream..keem muhaso ko jar se mitaye..twacha ki raksha kare..usme samaye...etc..

OH!!!i love indian ads..and its fun singing along with the songs..good old times...

Oh and at work today one of my colleagues...i tell you boys can be so so sadistic...we were talking about our childhood games...and this guy comes up with how he used to torture insects...e.g.;pull out the wings of flies after trapping them....watching them die coz of lack of oxygen by trapping them in between the glass sliding bits in a window....and how he used to catch spiders ( daddy long legs) and spray stuff on them..and them rip out its long limbs....that reminds me....i know someone else who used to catch bats...and toads and trap them...and when they died...he would have like proper funerals for them....and had like a little graveyard up the back of the house where their "tombstones" were marked with things..like red flags for bats....crazy as.....hihi...

after a long time..i feel happy today thinking that i am kindof following the rite track...i think i know...what i want and where im headed......im disappointed that i havnt had nemore chance encounters with my crush..after that one bumping into each other a fortnight ago....i think ill take to stalking him....if i dnt see him soon....muhaha..i know where he lives....hihi...dnt get ideas...im not a psycho stalker....just a girl-who-wants-to-bump-into-her-crush-again....lol

LoNg WeEk...

another week has started...yet another monday back at work...aaaawwww.....im a bit groggy..was in a trance like state when my alarm went off at 7...my scream alarm tone somehow got swapped for a soothing musical piece...donno how....i would rather hear the scream and wake up rather than this (this one kindof lulls me back to slumber agaian...)!!

Been trying to change it back..but cant seem to figure out how to do it...the extended tired, drained feeling has been with me for the past week...nd refuses to go away...its been a cRaZy week..mostly involved socialising...a bit of serious work...studies and stuff..got acquainted with a hand full of people...involved some number exchanges...some musings(wow nice person...and at times...what a freak) like one particular person quiet a lot...and now back at work..still nursing a hangover from the past week(ends)...not to forget the not so eventfull V-day...the free movie passes i had won...well went to watch it with cousins on saturday...and its an absolute must watch...made me fall in love with Johnny Depp all over again...with increased intensity...hes so HOt....also i watched 27 dresses....nd i managed to lose my glasses somehow..they fell out of my pocket and i didnt realise untill quiet late...i bought a satin pink singlet (dirt cheap) and was so excited looking at the price tag that i didnt bother tryign it on...later discovered it woudn't go past my shoulder blades...i have no idea why i bought something that is obviously meant for an anorexic stick thin person.....

the weekend that went by was pretty full on...met up with friends and cousins...and cousins friends...extended friends of friends of friends and cousins...(pretty confusing....how many different groups of people were involved)...had a quiet dinner nd then went clubbing...the ambience was good...once upstairs there was so much booze on the dance floor that i slipped twice...and found it hard to controll laughing out loud at how ridiculous my fall looked....hehe...(btw..i had no id and had to jump the fence somewhere)...it was good apart from chance encouters with few freaks ( @ times fobs!!) who attempted to hit on me...

but the highlight of the week was a chance encounter with my current crush( i think i like him..nd i think (oh well i hope) its mutual)....after wrk few days ago..he looked dashing...;)

crammed in heaps of junk over the past few days....feel extremely guilt now and have to go work out this week....i actually started my saturday breakfast with a more than generous serving of mei goreng ( its an indonesian fried noodles...im totally addicted to it).....someone at work mentioned mei goreng today and i lost no time to introduce the other people who hadnt tasted it yet...how great it tastes...mite even start a mei goreng lovers club...(sounds kindof lame...actually) neway.....and a friend(female) of mine is apprently in (love) with my roomie P...and P has been asking me since yesterday if my friend is a desperate lesbian...man..i know a lot of wierdos...not not just crazy people(coz they can be handled...) but actual freaks...psychotic almost...neway my sumptous lunch awaits me..gotta go now...

P.S: and i decided to get married either on a boat house or at a beach..if it happens ever...sounds pretty cool...

WaLk DoWn MeMoRy LaNe...

when ever i surf through news items...i try to browse through the Telegraph...one of the leading dailies in kolkata...and the likes of it..just to keep myself updated about kolkata...something i have recently noticed is the controversy about the famous Kolkata Boi Mela...th elast time i went there it was still at maidan...i remember queueing up with P and checking out Hot guys while in the long queue....and also keeping a sly eye out for who we were getting checked out by...and finally when we entered...we were utterly confused about which end of the mela we should start from...getting lost in the world of books is amazing..we ended up buying loads of books...and managed to get lost twice (i think)....the book fair has been reloacted since the last time i was there...i wonder what the bloody politicians get out of unnecessary controversies.....
the weekend that just went by was a gloomy one..i mean..its meant to be summer...and here we are freezing cold at times....due to the sudden heavy downpours and bloody hot at other times.....never know what to expect...most of the days im either freezing at work due to lack of proper clothings( the weather woman said it would be HOT) and at other times....all hot and puffy because i ended up wearing full slevved clothes when it was boiling hot outside....

had meant to go to uni and get some work done..but nature was against that...it kept rainign on and offf throughout the two days....P & I watched disturbia on friday night and were pretty disturbed by it...so ended up sleeping in the same room...we were talking about how different a day like this would be in india.....a rainy day would mean its an unofficial holiday for all....i would generally laze around curled up in my warm doona...and ma would generally make tele-bhaja..patla daal...alu-bhaja...and the likes of it...

it turns out both of us were quite devils as kids...always driving our folks crazy with worry or embarrasing them in public...well..not that we have stopped doing that kindof stuff..but its toned down a bit...i guess living away from home change people in more than one way...but its fun to let that naughty kid inside take over every once in a while....

This weather also reminded me of a particular brishtir din…when we all sat and watched sat ray movies…legend of a man…have been asking around for films from his collection..very hard to find…I can find hindi…punjabi and a whole lot of south indian films but not Bengali….damn…

Yet another brishtir din…this was when I was in year 11…..when it rained cats and dogs…..for those who are familiar with the water logging and temporary deluge in kolkata it wdnt be hard to conjure the image of what it would be like wading through knee deep water on the streets….after school got over a couple of us decided to walk till JU from school….it was disgusting no doubt..but if this can be ignored it was a lotof fun..that walk…no doubt my granma made me strip at the entrance (almost) before she would let me enter the house with my dirty uniform on…....

ardent poignant soul....

lost in nostalgia...
