love siege


to...
chax: i had got my laptop & had connected thro' moi mobile! :)



recently i was viewing a film called "coyote ugly".. in that the protagonist lady walks into the pub, named same as the film, in a very timid & cautious manner... but soon she becomes the prime entertainment & the source of business for the pub.. to my mind, somehow this was very similar to how many love stories are...

the gal slowly & cautiously enters the guy's heart and soon she is in total command!!! also his heart's main source of entertainment is his love!!! nd this triggered the creative side of me and here is my grouping of words that i call poem on this very subject:

LOVE SIEGE


unexpected she came in,
not barging but, entering in slowly
clear cautious eyes scanning
taking in all
nd surprisingly not detesting!

there were others before
some came along nd others later
all pitchin in their luck
nd hoping a win
but surprisingly none won!

all of these she has heard
never seen but heard, you betcha;
smilingly she sat at nowhere
cautiously nd silently
knew not many of her whereabouts!

soon the owner noticed her
throw in a card for a team-game
without knowledge they were gaining,
slowly and gradually,
points were scored against their names!

the crowd around are unaware
of the potential team building along
they are blissfully ignorant,
including her gaurdian,
of the successful coupling in front!

eventually the crowd walk out
the game-room losing competitors
to this unbelievable partners in crime;
unware to hisself
the owner has shut doors on others!

one fine moment amidst joy
the void in the room hit, as a surprise,
as the owner searched all around;
with dawn of wisdom,
the reality stuck him, surprisingly, pleasant!

the facts of the life
coupled with philosophy ruling life
hits hard until ye wake up
just to inform,
"buddy, you hit a jackpot!"

They Got Spliced....

2 marriages + 10 different sets of friends + 2 different places + monsoon all through = HOLY FREAKING AWESOME

The black clouds above opened up
raining all its anger downpour
bringing along the grace of GOD
showering down unto his subjects.


The past few weeks had been days of rain. Rain came when ever it felt like. Never had a predictable rhythm. It welled up & eventually clogged up the roads making traveling a pain... esp for bikers like me. But, then yeah, it was blessings in disguise. The temperature simmered down so bloody much that now we have to search for a cover to avoid catching cold. :-) Am i not glad? The days of heat & sweat is long over. Now we are into rain & run for covers time! wish my gal-friend was beside me... would have a rocking time (literally) :-)

Like the monsoon moving North-west
and suddenly changing course to Bengal
blessing jungles, concrete & natural, along
the nomadic bachelor freedom caught onto me.


Yday in Hyderabad's one end in the evening and 40km to the other side by night and back to this end by mid-night and now 300+ Km from Hyderabad in Vijayawada. Wow! This is truly nomadic and joy of bachelorhood is fabulous and needs to be a part of every guy sometime in their life time. I can't imagine roaming so much with my wife tagging along. God forbid if I am a father!

A word, a hug, a slap on the back
the punch in the paunch and that kick
is the order the day, amidst friends;
thats whom i met in scores after years.


Yday met a dozen and tomorrow another dozen more. And no over-lapping b/w them. Such are the numbers of friends i am meeting in the past few days. And, of the 2 dozen, atleast a couple (nearly 10+) i am meeting after years. Wow!! The joy of reunion. The joy of watching our dear pals. The joy of reliving those days in just a few moments. The joy of being back to our student notorious self... Its fulfilling.

"The year of of maximum nuptials,"
so would my friend put it, obviously,
with friends finally falling in the trap
I am a mute witness for a couple of them.


I traveled 40+ KM braving a downpour, which would have halted even Sun God's rays to penetrate. I traveled without any know-how about the place, route, location. No nothing. But thats fun. esp when you are traveling to be a part of history in making of your friend. Esp when you are attending a wedding. Yeah, I am here Vijayawada @ 300+ km from my cozy home, braving all odds of rain + unfinished work @ ofc + a cold stare from manager to attend my friend's marriage.

So long live Mr & Mrs. Pappu & Mr. & Mrs. Dad.

At last a first!!!


to...
saka:yeah, i always know my moods were just like the rain clouds in Chennai. They never last more than a day or two... but, yeah, i had all the rights to be depressed bcoz the situation was like that. can't help it boss!!!



after a long of "i need it" and "i will by this month end"... i at last did it...

ah! the feeling is good and great.
i feel some amount of achievity
have i? a good que albeit bit late.
at last i got my connectivity. :-)


At last, after a real long wait (running into years), i recently picked up a laptop. a good enough fitting my budget and configuration. a HCL make. 1.73G + 1G RAM + Blue tooth + Web cam + DVD R/W. All of this for Rs. 46K + 3yrs warranty... Its apparently one of the best deals though the brand is not very well known in laptop circles.

after a few tussles with leading ISPs
i realized what a village i live in
it seems i live in a forest without trees
nobody would provide me a option to login.


I was quite irritated with the leading Broadband providers when they refused to provide me a broadband connection bcoz i apparently live really far from the city limits and it is not feasible for them spend time, money & effort in providing a cabled connection.

Then, I decided to try out wireless
but, yeah, i was surprised at their response
their interest could not have been any less
poor response means poor signals!


I tried the leading Wireless DataCard provided Mr. Reliance. I wanted to check the bandwidth and signal strength near my home. I was promised a demo at my home and i waited for over a week and realized they would not provide me even a decent demo. I was not in the least amused by their lack of service. There aft, I was not in the least in doubt about their after-sales service.

Then, a spark inside my huge head
I do already have a signal receiver, O' my Dumb
why cant i use it? Ah! Used my head
Thus my MOTO-V3 Razor with Airtel acts as modem


So, with a sudden dawn of brain-powerm, I realized why can't i use the features in my mobile. My mobile supports GPRS and my service provider does that too, so why not? :-)

So, fellas, here i am online from home using my Moto V3 Razor + Airtel combo. Hopefully this will help me streamline my online activity @ office to work-related only and thus improve my productivity. This means that i can leave ofc early & have a life other than work life too!!!

Yippee!!! I am happy! :-)

hmmm... Crys from abysmal limits

pv: hope you watched it and you liked it too.
vinesh: Deepa Mehta + Lisa Ray and if a guy does not want a skin show then he must be Gay! :-) Thankfully, I am not and I am glad that you are not too. :-)



The depressed me trying to pen down the possible reasons for depression. Wanna read it? I would suggest not... Dont waste your time.

you clicked and wanna read?? God Save You!

Hi All

Its quite an interesting thing to note that some acts in life become a part of you and you miss them when you dont do them. For the past few weeks, I have been quite dis-satisfied with anything and everything... I wondered why? I thought of various stuffs but nothing much seemed a valid reason.

i weighed a lot on various acts/activites but none gave me a conclusive explanation to my mental state...

1. Basket Ball - i used to play a lots of them when i was a student.. spent at least 2-3hrs/day sweating out in the court.. right now I have no opportunity to play as I found no ground anywhere near for me to play. :-( I missed playing... esp BB.
2. Creative Tussles - back in college, i used to be a part of a gang, which used to be extremely innovative and creative. And, we used to have great arguments and i enjoyed the knowledge sharing that used to be a part of such arguments. I miss those and I miss my group.
3. Friends - back in college and even in my 1st job, i had loads of friends. i always cherished my moments with them but right now far away from them, in a different city, i feel lonely. and, i cannot blame them but its obvious, that i am slowly being left out of the group. once, i used to be an integral part of the group, now i am just an attachment running in the periphery. i miss friends and i miss their support. i lived my entire life with the support from them.
4. blogging - ok, i was never a regular blogger but yep, i was there. i used to blog often and used to reply on quite a few other blogs too. i used to enjoy, how-ever infrequent it was, the creative challenges blogging used to pose. I enjoyed reading others blog and trying to gauge them. It was fun. But of late, i am no where. i lost my identity in the blog-world too..

i miss the above a lot. i know its gonna be tough 2 get that creative tussle back but the other 3 are not difficult. Unfortunately, being an extremely negative-thinking optimist its tough for me to think that i can get back my friends. the way i am losing my friends, i would be surprised if any body would attend my marriage! Its a freaking sad thought but, yeah, i am getting depressed aloud, in a vociferous manner. at times like these i feel like kicking my own butt but then, thats life about me.... feeling depressed and moving out of it...

neways, coming to basket ball, I have no clue how and where I am gonna find a court & some fellas to play with... regarding bloggin, i am damn freaking busy but then i should try & make some time to blog.

If i cannot do what i love doing, then what is life all about??

W.A.T.E.R - an beauty of its own.


to...
~*. D E E P A .* ~ : tanq... so there is some one who still believes my lame excuses. :-) this gives me loads of confidence! ;-)



Me went to my friends' house and they had a small quarell. It concerned one guy ditching the other & goin for a night show. And my presence gave the victim an idea. "Even I will go out with my friend" and he looked at me! I was surprised. He decided for me??!! Meekly, I said, "Yeah, we too shall go!" So we went for this great movie!

This is one hell of a film. Believe me, this is fantastic. I went in with a bit of apprenhension and a bit curiosity. After all, isnt DM the director of the in-famous FIRE?? I was also half-expecting so see some skin-show and stuff. DM disappointed me. Disappointed me badly....


...by no nothing of adult content in the movie. Its a clean movie with strong strong (repeat over zillion times) subject. The movie is a eye-opener and makes you feel like kicking the butt of our ancestors if they were anywhere close to how its depicted in the movie.

I can with all joy reveal the story out here bcoz this movie rides on an directorial excellence with fabulous screen-play. So this will not be a spoiler of any form but for those who feel otherwise plz close the window right now!

This movie is placed @ 1938 timeline. Starts with a cute little girl being take to the ashrama for widows. And after over an hour of the movie, I realized that this ashram is only for those kid-widows. Apparently child-widows are considered cursed, I suppose. Else why a seperate ashram for them?? Anyways, this kid is a Srilankan, whose real-life name is Sarala. She portrays the innocent widow who does not even understand/realize that she is a widow. Her performance is remarkable! Sweeps you off your feet!! She over shadows other big-wigs in the movie and has outrun them by miles. Imagine performing better than Seema Biswas & John Abraham. Fantastic performance. We should watch this movie at least for this babe. Her expressions are so innocent yet filled with the emotion she is expressing. Hear say that she does not even know English. A transalator used to help her out in the movie sets! Boy, imagine hearing the scene transalated from English to Silangeese and then act in Hindi!! Boy! Its tough. Very tough.

Her in the Ashram, Chuyia (Sarala's reel name) meets Didi - Seema Biswas and Kalyani - Lisa Ray along with various other insignificant characters. Chuyia is all of her young age and bubbling with enthusiasm but none in the ashram, leaving apart Didi and Kalyani, give her the space that is essential for a kid. Then plot revolves around how Didi & Kalyani with patience and love truly welcome & enjoy the kid's company.


At this juncture you are thrown the most important question, subtly by the director! What life does a kid-widow have? We have heard zillion times about kid-widows & kid-marriages. As a matter of fact, both my grannys (mom's & dad's moms) have had child-marriage. Probably just after their puberty. So we have heard about kid-marriage from childhood and it does not strike us how terrible it is to be a widow & a kid too! This movie dwells with that sad portion of the life. In fact, at certain junctures, we get irritated and angry with our in-human ancestors! How in fuck did they justify their behaviour?? I mean, get a kid of 3-4yrs old to marry a stupid 60yrs old bas***d. And when that dumb-of-an-ass dies, which anyway he would even before the kid understands that she is married, throw the kid (if lucky, 8 or 9 else 4 or 5yrs old) into that ashram and tell her that she should never be normal!!!

Can ye blve that? Imagine yerself in the kids position. You grow up not knowing truly why you are not staying with your mom or dad but with some fat-lumps!! Also not knowing why you have to keep your head shaved and wear only white saari!! And, when you attain puberty and all those sensual feelings arise, you realize that you are never too enjoy those aspects of life!! And this is all bcoz yer father & mother wanted to get to married to some fucking fool for Rs 20/- This is fucking insane!!

And also these widows are used as prostitutes!! And the head of the ashram herself lends these kids/girls. I mean, thats very sad. The way its portrayed is that these widows are considered as low, cheap & dirty in the caste-dominant society. In fact, some fucking zamindar goes around screwing 9yr old kids!!!! I cant believe it. I mean, I was so agitated when I saw this little Chuiya being sent to a Zamindar as a prostitute. And the little kid did not even know that. When I see a little kid, I feel like hugging her & showering with kisses for all her innocence and not otherwise. I cannot think of sex with her. Bastards! The zamindars of yore are cheap sex maniac and would go around screwing even if you tie a saree around a tree. Cheapos!

I was so overwhelmed by this movie that If I had a time-machine @ my disposal, I would have gone back & time & killed all of them...

Its time India wakes up and allows screening of such wonderful eye-openers. These Politicians are indeed killing India & its future... Why this movie was not allowed to be shot in India? It has immense relevance and societal importance. Similar was the case for the other great moview Parzania. Read here and here for better reviews of Parzania.

anyways, getting back to the movie. This is a wonderful movie, which does not have any skin-show or no nothing that can be rated as A. But a clear good story line with great acting and fantastic direction. The movie moves mountains within you.... A great great watch!! Dont miss it even for zillion dollars!

Laziness is an Art!


to...
krishna: oye! thanks. welcome to my blog. :-)
chax: thanks dude. i take that as a compliment. :-D



This post is dedicated to my very friends. Some are opinionated. Some are shrewd. Some are against me. Some are for me. Some biased. Some other unbiased. But every body has categorically come to the same conclusion! This post is dedicated to those souls!!!

"lazy bugger. You'll never change." said my good friend.
I suppose, this is the repayment for calling him "a good pillion rider" :-) But, I actually take this as a compliment. I mean, its difficult to be lazy. Do you know why?? Read further....

Yep. Its difficult to be lazy. For laziness affects various aspects of ones life. and one should have the mental strength to cope up with those. Lemme try & list it out....

1. you gain pounds - This is the most important effect of being lazy. ye gain pounds faster than a 5yr old can grow! Extra pounds are not well appreciated by some biased & senseless community of skeletons. Well, I would say its gr8 to put on pounds it means a lot. It means you are Lazy!!! Isnt it great?

2. you lose prospective gal-friends - Another major impact bcoz of laziness. Say, you meet some gal @ some party/function. You take her number. You go home. She go home. (of course, i am refering to respective homes & not the same) You hit your sack & watch some crap on the TV. She hits her couch & wait staring at the mobile to ring with your name flashing. You dont and she doesn't. Next day @ mid-day, when you wake up with a hang-over due to laziness, you decide to call her and she bangs the phone so hard on your ring your ear drums would refuse to work for next few minutes. In short, you lazed around and she is gone for ever. But, this is great isn't it? you get to flirt around with one more the next day. :-) Else you are committed & hooked on to the same damn babe! How sinful!!!

3. your blog is rarely updated - Oh, yeah, this is one of the effects, which does not have a +ve perspective.

4. your vehicle & house are rarely tidy - oye, dont get me wrong. My house is clean but its not tidy. Thats it. But thats a great feeling. Untidy yet clean houses retain a perfect home atmosphere. Extremely tidy houses are but museums where only extinct animals are preserved. I am not yet extinct!
Also, when you clean your vehicle like once in a blue-moon thats when you realize that you actually have a very sexy vehicle and it gives a great pride & confidence. This will be of great help esp when you are gonna go on a date with a gal for the 1st time!! ;-)

5. you learn to skip meals - This is of great help. When you live alone and you have every necessary ingredients to cook but you are lazy. You are actually not skipping meals but learning to skip them. This will be of great help. Imagine, you join army and you are sent to plunder the enemies. At the ambush is fixed @ 7:30 in the morning. You are cannot protest and demand for food @ that time. But with these training you can successfully ambush the enemies and even get the "Medal of Honor." Then your Mom, who is shouting at you for skipping breakfast now, will be proud of you then. Always aim at the greater Goal!

Laziness is an art. One needs to master it. Else you will be infected by the most dangerous illness in this known-world - Guilt. You need to completely unaffected by the happenings around you only then you can be lazy without guilt. And its a great feeling to be lazy without Guilt. Try it & you will be addicted to it.

Laziness without Guilt is Character.

Trip to ParkField Resort

After I relocated to Hyd, I have been more find in B'lore than Hyd. I had various reasons. And this time it was bcoz of a get-to-gether we had planned.

"Its been really long since we had a outing," commented one.
"Oh! yeah, we plan but never put it into action," accused other.
"We plan and almost execute but for few spoilers," said another.

The atmosphere (which is in reality a virtual space) was becoming hot & sweaty to stay. A few more similar comments would call for fight & blood shed. Then some one jumped in, "yeah, He came back from US just a couple of days ago. Why not have a treat from him as a trip?" This saw many nods more than the traffic jams around the city. Few more of us ( to be precise, 2 of us) also joined the US-return in treating others.

We decided the day to be 23 & 24 Feb. After loads of "this-place" and "no, that place", we finally left the job to an able guy. And then on 17-Feb we visited "Park Field Resort". The following is gonna be just a photo blog of the events, for better read go thro -

Blood Diamond


to...
chax: Dont ever think about reading a new movies story in moi blog. I will never spoil even with a spoiler warning. :)



In this stupid place where I live the number of English movies that run in theatres are, at its best, 2!!! So, when I heard this movie was current on screens, I rushed. Me and Moi cousin went for this movie and we were awestruck. This is a movie one should never miss.


I dont like to give away the story of any movie I watch. But this movie its gonna be difficult but I will try not to give away the main stuff; @least not the climax!! :-) So I have compensated with pix of the movie. I am so awe struck with this movie, I could not contain my excitement since last night. Also I have been ever since waiting to get hold of my comp to pen down on my blog.

The plot is set in 1990 under the cloud of chaos & rebel war @ Sierra Leone. Well, as the name of the title says, this movie is all about....

...the infamous conflit Diamonds. This movie touches you with a gripping screen play. The entire movie is about the struggle Africans face because of the craze for this stone - Diamond. Once we are through with the movie, you feel a tinge of pain when-ever you come across a Diamond. This movie has been taken so beautifully that you wonder what are getting ourselves into. Our craze for such exotic stone is causing zillions of lives.

The movie's protagonist is difficult to identify. Its not one but two. Both Leonardo DiCaprio and Djimon Hounsou. Each have out performed each other. Just like a race, where each performer tries more to compete & out-perform with each other than simply winning the race; here too, these two fellas have given such a magnificient performance. I wonder why they did not earn the oscar. These guys did a great great job. You get so involved with their natural acting.

Leonardo DiCaprio has so out-grown his boy-image, which he acquired during his early years esp in Titanic. Movie after movie & year after year, his performance shows the maturity & extreme character. When I look back at the movies I have enjoyed the most, quite a few of those flicks are Leonardo's!!! Is that suprising? I did for me. Think about it - Departed, Aviator, Titanic, Catch Me If You Can and now, Blood Diamond!!! Boy! Boy! What a performer he is?

But note that here is another actor, who does not get over-shadowed by his bigger co-stars. He steals his share with all aplomb and grace. He showed that he knows what he does and his eyes spoke more than any body. And full marks to his body language. He might be seen running behind Leonardo but if you notice, he is not far behind and he is catching up with him! Yep, I am talking about Djimon Hounsou.

Djimon Hounsou has rendered a sterling performance. Never heard this name till now. But when I searched his name, I realized that I have seen a few of his movies. I liked him in Gladiator. And he is there in Eragon, which is due to be released in India. Will catch up with this movie soon as it is realized @least to watch this fella's performance. Pretty impressive. In fact, there are other older movies I missed like Rising Sun, Constantine, Biker Boyz.

Ok, dont ask me why she is there; but she is & we have to accept. I am refering to Jennifer Connelly. She still looks pretty though her age is catching up with her looks. Her smile is still radiant. And her physiche is sooooooo picture perfect. Damn! How does she maintain such a hot hour-glass structure without looking tooo thin!! She comes for few more scenes and captivates us with her smile. May be, she is in the movie just to take the mind of all the killings. No doubt she gets in a fresh air to the other wise bloody scenes & quite literally too.

Finally, for the director - Edward Zwick. What a direction! You have to watch this movie to know the difference between a Hollywood flick against our own Bollywood flops! There is never one time in the movie when you think that this scene is unwanted. Or this scene is unnecessary. Or what is he trying to tell us? Every scene is gripping. Edge of the seat. He has maintained the thrill & kept the adrenal pumping till the last scene. Very precise & clear no-nonsense direction.

On a whole this a wonderful movie to watch, dont miss it.

Eklavya - A Majestic Beautiful No-Nothing


to...
pv: I know. I know. I am just playing it safe & praying. And thanks dude for the financial help offer. Can ye plz transfer $55,000 to my a/c! ;-)



The day was boring, as in nothing much was happening. Also I had not-a-so-good-time with the ICICI bank. As they money is still @ large. I was just riding by Hyd Central and I decided to watch a movie. I just went in and bought a ticket.


I went and saw this movie. I have my own opinions on it. Read further for my opine.

If you want a short one, just note that if you are not a creative-freak KEEP OFF FROM THE MOVIE SCREEN

The movie starts with a usual period film start. A commentary from the legendary voice in the industry - Big B's. Damn good voice. Then the screen is filled with a beautiful face of a dying Sharmila Tagore and a weird looking Boman Irani. They are accompained by a beautiful Raima Sen. Sharmila passes away then in next few scenes the sexy hulk Saif is flown in (literraly); followed by the super sexy Vidya Balan.

Until now every body in the audience is smiling for they saw somebody whom they wanted to see. The oldies saw AB & Sharmila, the middle aged saw Boman Irani and youth Vidya, Saif & Raima....

And thats the last time ye will see them smiling... For from now-onwards the audience (which includes ye) is taken an amazing ride filled with great sets + background scores. The directorial touch is seen in every scene. Every scene takes you by a awe. The background score is superb. There is only one song and its fabulous too. But, what strikes you the most is the confusion.

It looks like the director is confused in telling you what he wanted to. Frankly, when you step out of the hall, ye are left thinking what in heavens' did he try to convey? The acting is superb, so you cannot blame on the actors. So is the dialogues. The background score has done its job in giving you the feel of the emotion but then something is definitely missing. Slowly it dawns on you that there was simply no story what so ever.

PROs -
      Star Cast: Impressive
      Acting: Quite Good
      Cinematography: Excellent
      Background Scores: Simply Superb
      Sets: Mind Boggling
      Per Scene direction: Fabulous
      Directorial Touch: Scene-after-Scene

CONs -
      Cohesion b/w scenes: Not bad
      Story line: Hmmm... gotta look for one
      Screen Play: For this story line its great.

Is it a casual watch?
      Nope! If you want to watch movie only for fun, then plz keep off this movie. You will left with a sad feeling. As there is nothing commercial about this movie other than the cast.

Then who can watch this?
      Fellas who are interesting in creative cinema! This movie is full of creativity. Starting from the story till the climax, from the music to sets, also the cinematography is superb. Worth watching for a creativity freak. Its a must for a DFT students but not for story writers :-)

Will you go again?
      Yes. Provided I have a good company who can appreciate the hard-work and behind-the-scene works. I was once involved in a short movie-making for my class & I know the stuff that goes behind. So when you see this movie you can feel the work & concentration of the behind-sceners...

In Short, for commercial public its is a
Eklavya - A Majestic Beautiful No-Nothing

but for DFTs & creative-freaks its
Eklavya - A Majestic Beautiful Creative Bundle

So inexperienced I am!!!


to...
saka: Copy cat. :-) Anyways, i will be more than happy not to sue you for overriding my copyright.
pv: hope to be regular, in the future. lets see. :-)



This week had been a nice roller-coaster ride for me. I had few highs & one lonely but a big low

The week that went by was interesting. There were highs but I am not gonna tell about them. I am gonna tell about my one lonely but a hig low. I had lent few thousands to my friend and he has till date failed to return.... Now what should I do?

This guy concerned was a junior in my college. I lent him 30-grand as he desperately wanted that to finish some Tax related work. And he promised to return the amount by 8th of this month. Believing his words, literally, I lent him the entire amount, which literally cut my bank balance to near zero. I did not work on the unexpected. Now he has not returned to amount to me and I am broke, to say the least. I have loads of financial commitments and I am not sure how I am gonna manage it. And to top it all, today is my credit card's due date. :-(

Now what I am pissed off with this fella is his indifference towards returning. Should he not take responsibility in returning the amount to me? He did not return my call or return my sms for few days. And then after few days he started giving reasons like he is out of town & such stuff. And, now the latest development is that he has depositted the cash in one of the ICICI's branch on Friday. But till now it has not reached me. What in heaven's I am supposed to do???

When I contact him, he says that he cannot do anything bcoz he has depositted the amount and so his work is over. Now its bank's responsibility to credit the amount to me. Wow! I loved this commited statement from him. I wish to kick his butt but i cannot until the amount reaches my hand. Unfair world! You cannot do certain things bcoz other things are dependent are on this.

Anyways, I am keeping my fingers' crossed and wait for a miracle to happen. Nothing short of miracle, can save me from the clutches of the banks' who have graciously given me credit cards!!

So Inexperienced I am!!! :-( To handle such scenarios.
psst.... I wish to hell I knew what to do in such scenarios?

Brief Update!!

Planning to start a new idea of writing post. This is basically borrowed from kroopz but with a slight modification. I am planning to reply to the comments of the previous post before beginning the new post. Does that sound good? This way, I can definitely say to those who commented a more vociferous thanks. What ye say?

to...
chax: Soon dude. soon. :-)
saka: uh!! what? dude, can ye plz explain further?? :-)



This is a brief update from my side. I have been out of action from blog-world for over 3 months so thought would give a brief update from moi side.

The past 3 months to be precise from Nov 24th till date Feb 13th, had been a good roller coaster ride. Simply due to lack to time & balancing a huge pressure to make a +ve impact in office. So had to restrain from venturing into various of my online entertainments. So here is my brief update....

DEC 06-
  • Visited quite a few places on our way to a wedding. We went from B'lore to Belluru, Hallibidu, Kalasa, Hornadu. What a beauty these places are. Its a definite honeymoon spot esp Kalasa. Its the Karnataka equivalent of Munnar. Beauty par excellence. Also the architectural beauty of Belluru & Hallibidu is fabulous. I would request all those who can plz visit these places and believe me you will not regret it.
  • Attended one of my closest friends marriage. It was traditional Mangalorian Brahmin wedding. I enjoyed it. It was different but very refreshing.
  • Found a house @last. My college seniors house. Me & my other senior is sharing the house. A good house but very far from the actual happening Hyderabad.
  • Shifted my stuff from B'lore. Was a tough job. I had collected enough stuff thinking my life will be for-ever in B'lore. Way too many stuff for a bachelore, I should confess.
  • Went out with my b'lore friends to a resort and broke my ankle for the zillion-th time. Boy! My ankle's lady luck is working over-time. I am still able to run is a magic given the number of times I have twisted it.

  • Spent my New Year eve fruitfully washing away my sins. Emptied my drum of mistakes & "never-do" things so that I can refill it this year again. I had been to Puttaparthy and spent a useful 3days. Prolly a very good way to start the year to come.
  • Went to B'lore the following the weekend to meet my class-mate who had come down to India. CK is doing his doctorate in US of A. Met him kinda after an year, at least. It was nice to catch up with him & the other gangsters. :-)
  • For Sankaranthi (or Pongal, for Tamilians) been to home for a lazy 3days. Spent the entire 3 days (i.e., 72hours) only on my bed and a couch near TV. In fact, one meal session I had in a spoon for not-wanting to get up to cleanse my hand. :-) Laziness is my birth right & I exercised it to the best during those days. Also this was my 1st visit after I took up this new job, so it means I am visiting after 3+ months, the longest after my college.
  • Attended one of my class-mate's wedding in Hyd, my friends had come down for it and it was fun unlimited. We enjoyed our best. Roaming in the streets of Hyd when the entire city was asleep and doing things which made the police wonder if we are terrorists! :-) For further details, log onto saka's page. click here A good update.
  • Spent one weekend purchasing stuff for my home. Bought a washing m/c and Diwan. It was my dream to set up a beautiful home, which you would love to return to from office. So in the process of setting it up. Hope I dont over do it.

A Beautiful Proporsal

There are loads to write after my previous post. Zillion things have happened after my Goa trip. I can fill up this post on that but I dont want to. This is come-back post is for a different reason.

I have an habit of opening my orkut account when I begin my day. I check my message & reply to my scraps. I also visit other profiles who had visited mine. Today I came across a profile that came with the name Sindu. I went through her profile and was surprised to find this beautiful poem in her profile. I took a sudden liking to this and thought I should share it with you all. Without much crap from me, here it comes....

       Feelings.....

When I saw your name next to mine,
In our wedding card,
I felt blessed.

When I saw you smile,
Seeing me in the traditional bride groom dress,
I felt teased.

When I held your hand,
During the marriage rituals,
I felt responsible.

When you entered my lonely bachelor life,
And changed it into a heavenly abode,
I felt lucky.

When you showed the same love as I did,
Towards my parents,
I felt proud.

When you scolded me,
For neglecting my heath amidst my hectic work,
I felt pampered.

When I saw you scream,
Crying out of labor pains,
I felt helpless.

When I saw tears of happiness in your eyes,
As you looked at our kid,
I felt blessed once again.

All these feeling have bloomed in my heart,
But are yet to blossom in reality.
As these are feelings I long to feel,
For these are still unfelt.


When will you marry me?
