TWL meet -GUJUCITY

Remember, remember the 17th of july
writers,friends and lounge.
I see no reason, why The Writer's Lounge
Should ever be forgot.
Remember, remember, the 17th of july
writers,friends and lounge.
A stick or a stake for celebrations' sake
Will you please to give me a toast
If you can't give me one, I'll take two;
The better for me and the best for you!

The Wl meet- Gujucity was glorious..... :D
it had full attendance of members.

The board had- Total strenth-1
Present -1
Absentees -1

written on the top left corner, just like the school days.... :D

So i woke up around 11 am, thought what should i do and how should i celebrate?
Couldnt do much so went to the seashore and decided to have a solitary celebration. the word solitary celebration again was touchy.... the solitary writer... he wasnt there although mumbai wasnt that far from gujucity...
anyways decided that next time i ll join some of you and we ll have a blast....



Well this pic had no mask on it while it was taken by some intelligent and tech savvy fishermen.
But stepMan has appointed me as his sidekick and since i dont have any super power as of now.. he said its not the time to come out.I am late blommer it seems.He faxed me the appointment letter.

And ste designed this new half costume for me....he's a very able person with photoshop you know.


I made this collage for each and every member and visitor off our lounge. Hope you like it..
there's a drink for almost everyone there.... :D
enjoy the toast....


I ll try my best to meet all the members, you mean a lot to me. I am really thankful to god that i meet you guys when i was feelins really down in my life. Thank you all for lifting my spirits.
Hope oneday we may organise a succesful global meet for TWL.




Well the Orange guys couldnt pronounce "writers lounge" and "belated" please bear with them... they are still learning english...I am sure they would have sung well in Dutch.... :D

The Girlfriend's Happiness !

The girlfriend's happiness is one of the most baffling puzzles known to boys.Noboby knows where it's source is or where can you search for it.Its a maze.If you are lucky you do bring happiness for your girlfriend sometimes, but then you wonder "ooh my god, how did this happen? " What did i exactly do? Do we have a logic over here?

The girlfriend's happiness is like a maze. Its a Chakravyuha for boys.They sometimes battle out all the odds against them and reach inside that. But then they dont know the way out. They dont know how to go out and come inside again.To make the matter worse, the happiness thing is a function of time as well as space. If you keep doing the same thing again and again in the same place, you wont find it.Would a girl feel happy if the boy take her out to the same restaurant and get her the same flower every friday night after the office? NO! Thats why the boys need to enter the Chakravyuha, steal away the happiness thing and get away from that space into a different arena.

Now there are two kinds of happiness for girlfriends-real and fake.what is real and what is fake? Thats a new maze. Having a girlfriend is like getting boozed up and going on a car ride on some highway with no planned destination.Happiness is like an accident that happens. Thats why you have no clue when yr friends ask you tips for keeping yr girlfriend happy. Its like the questions that police ask you for a statement after you are admitted to the hospital.

How did it happen?

I dont know? I was just driving and then suddenly i lost control and the car ride became bumpy and then i dont remember anything....

I wish you all a very very happy ride with yr girlfriend.

The phone

Samir and More Orangee came back to More's apartment.More's Cellphone was stolen again.It happens all the time with him.This time Samir was to be blamed.He was the last known person to have it.

Orangee: I cant believe this! How can this happen again and again with me!

Samir: Well! it happens buddy...it happens..

Orangee: how could you leave the phone there at the sofa!

Samir: Well it wasnt feeling comfortable inside my pocket,and besides we were just two at the CCD,so I thought yr cellphone could get the extra seat beside me.

Orangee: So I shouldnt blame you, i should blame my cellphone which didnt signal us while we were leaving.Right?

Samir: Yup! you are right! I think it loved that place,the air-conditioned environment,the music,the girls.We were just a bunch of broing boys.It deserves that place.

Spiky enters the scene,smoking his fake cuban cigar!

Spiky: what happened? you look pissed off?

Orangee: Somebody stole my phone from CCD!

Spiky: Hmmm...wow! So we ll have a treat when u buy a new cellphone.Who stole it?

Orangee: I dont know! Somebody did it. We went back there, But i could find it.What should i do now? Go file an FIR at the police station?

Samir: What will they do?Its gone!

Orangee:Ya ya! You are right,Maybe i should call Vodafone care,block my SIM.

Spiky: Maybe you should call your phone!

Samir: Yes! we never tried doing that!Come on dial the number!

Orangee: Al right! lets give it a shot!

callertune playing-
He's a real nowhere man,
Sitting in his nowhere land,
Making all his nowhere plans
For nobody.

Knows not where he's going to,

Mind power !

Wherever you go,you always find people who ll steal your valuable things. It can be your apartment,your office,the bus you travel daily,trains,even airports.The crooks are everywhere.You cant escape them.You cannot stop them.They will find you.Unfortunately, you are usually not able to find them and wonder who's the culprit.But they find you and your valuables almost all the time.

And then there are certain places where you are bound to leave yr valuables in public places, for eg while traveling in train,you dont want to carry yr suitcase everytime you feel like going to the toilet, or do you take it??The swimming pool and the temple are one such places where you have to leave yr footwear in a very vulnerable place.the swimming pool is worse coz u have to leave yr mobilephone too.

Thats why we come up with ideas.Ideas which we think will confuse the crooks.Ideas which will keep our valuables hidden away from the culprit's eyes.For eg at the temple you ll come up with the idea of keeping yr shoes and then covering them up with other's shoe. You feel confident that what kind of a person will come and checkout this heap of footwear and then steal away yr pair of reebok...??Or some people come up with the separation theory. What they do is keep the left one in one side and then the right one away from it.So that the criminal gives up searching for the other pair even if he/she finds the first one. Many a times the owners themselves get confused in finding their pair of footwear.



And then the best of all,which is used at swimming pools without lockers.You might have seen poeple who are very shy to remove their clothes when you see them inside the changing room. They are not shy bcoz you ll see them half-naked, with a big belly or anatomy that may not resemble a normal male's anatomy.They know you will have that oppurtunity to see them thay way at the swimming pool.Why they wait for you to leave the place or enter the bathroom?I ll tell you. What they do is after you leave the place is, they remove their shoes and then put their mobilephone inside the shoes and then go for the swim, thinking whose gonna check that place out?They think,what kind of a genius mind would penetrate this immortal fortress of security.They keep them deep inside the toes and then cover the heels with their socks that would keep the crook away even if he/she happens to come near the footwear. So what they do is enjoy the swimming and then if at all the thought crosses their mind... they would say " come on!!! My socks were smelly,I didnt wash them for a week,the crook wont dare enter inside the locker room,forget abt making contact with my footwear.... :D

I wonder what will happen if the phone starts vibrating inside the show and the shoe starts moving here and there and stops right next to a criminal who has a blocked nose... :D

The Divine Intervention

Samir had a break up again! It happens all the time.But this time it seems like it was not 31 or 41...but she was the one. He came back to Orangee's place.

Shania: Samir! did u try calling her?

Samir: No,I tried calling her up..But it seems she has changed her number!

Shania
: ooooh bad luck! so what are you going to do abt it?

Samir
: I dont know! I am waiting for divine intervention. He has to send some sort of message!

Orangee: Hey fellow Comrade,U are back and u look as single as ever.Welcome back to the league of extraordinary singles.

Samir: i am not single yet!!!

Orangee: i have a feeling that u are almost a single.

Spiky was busy hunting the fridge for food.He didnt find anything interesting,he came back to the hall.He was amused to see Samir.

Spiky: I have her new number.Do u wanna have a talk?

Samir(with a feeling of jealousy) : And may I have the pleasure to know how did u get that.

Spiky: well she gave me when we went to have Coffee at CCD.

Samir:Coffee? how can u have coffee with my GF?

Spiky: Well, It was tough! I was not in a mood to say yes for that.But then the movie wasnt that good and it was hot and CCD was so near.So I had to say yes to her.

Samir(gets angry):Movie?? U went for a movie with her?? How can u do this to me?

Spiky: relax buddy,Well we didnt have the Salsa class today .So we had a lots of time to kill,besides we never watched Gadar-ek prem katha movie together.So we decided to go for it.

Samir( with disbelief): You went for Salsa with her?I cant believe that!!

Spiky: Ok dont believe what i say.But aleast you can believe this fees reciept!!

Samir: oh my god!! what I have been doing so many days.I had no idea what was happening around me.

Spiky: yes thats true!

Orangee: I have her new number too...

Samir turns back with his iconic expression of disbelief.

Samir: And what all activities you were involved with her?

Orangee: ooh! Me?? come on now! She sent me a SMS abt her new number.

Shania was confused with all the new unfoldings..

Shania: guys! Whats happening here?

Samir : Yes i wanna know that too!

Spiky : You are foolish guy! She's not the one. She's jsut number 41 or some other random number.End of story! bye bye!!

Shania(smilies): Now i think this is what you call divine intervention! Your friend dating yr girlfriend behind yr back and announcing it loud on yr face!

Samir looked confused, Scratched his head in his characteristic manner.He went and sat near the couch.Punched the landline phone with his right hand,as a result the reciever flew towards his left ear and his let hand grabbed it with precision just when it started to have a downward trajectory.He was too good at this. Even when he was at the verge of breakups.

Samir: whats her number??Whats her new number?? I want an explanation!!!I cant let piky have her.She's mine

Orangee and Spiky(chorus) : 9841021687

Samir : Hmmm Aircel number right?

Spiky: yup! You are 100% right buddy!

Samir looked up at the ceiling and then down.He glanced at Shania and the kept the reciever down.

Shania: what happened? You are not gonna call or what?

Samir: No! i am not gonna call now!

Chorus: But why???

Samir : bcoz I have realized the Divine Intervention.

Shania: what divine intervention?? Moments ago u refused to belive that theory?

Samir: Foolish Girl!! U ll never grow up!! Dont you realize that its an Aircel Number?

Shania: So what? Whats that gonna do with divine intervention?

Samir: Do u watch TV?

Shania: yes i do?

Samir : havent u seen Aircel's new Dhoni walla Ad?

Shania: Yes i have,But.....

Samir: It says at the end "Its time to move on"So thats god'd message for me.She could have had airtel's connection " kabhi pyar ke beech doori na aaye" but no its Aircel.. thats divine intervention.

Shania(puzzled):.............

Samir: Listen Shania! It been a pleasure to have you here.But now i think its time for u to move on from this place. drop me at the signal, i have some shopping to do..Orangee check the freezer for ice.I ll bring the stuffs.Spiky you take out the glasses.
we have it again.

Shania:but!!! but!!!!

Chorus:Come on!!! you are interuppting....

The end...ooops..... The beginning (yet again)

Elections!!! Watch out....

There are some questions in my mind who are troubling me ever since i read Uzra's poem under voice against terrorism...

Why suddenly the inflation is under control and the finance minister talks about having negative inflation rates??
How long will this continue??? till the elections end???

Why suddenly the bulls running again and the bears have gone for hibernation at the BSE and NSE..??? how long will the hibernation last?? till the election??

Why do all the parties advertise about their achievements only during election time?
Most of them on private channels..Doordarshan has less numbers comapred to other channels??

What has happened to the terror strikes?? Is the security and intelligence network working over time or may be politicians have signed a confidential and secret ceasefire with them.
Of course it will cease to exist once the election ends??( i hope this is nt true)

Why have suddenly SOME of the marathi's( i dont offend every one of them) stopped hating the bhaiya's and bihari's?

Why all of the ministers from Tamil nadu so interested in bringing a ceasefire in Sri-Lanka..Is every Tamil in the state of tamil nadu Happy that u r so concerned abt tamils in other countries?

Why all the politicians are silent about their alliances....Why do they want the elections to get over...Are they afraid that they ll lose people's confidence if they openly speak abt the alliance they want to join.

Why no channel shows what Amar singh did for Hilary clinton?

What has happened to all the celebrities in mumbai? Where's their chants of "enough is enough"
are they waiting for another incident to happen?


Is there really a provision in our constitution that we have been haering abt.Some section that describes that we have the right to vote for no one.But we have to go to the poll booth and tell the officer. If there's a provision...How can be trust that election officer.Coz there's no such option in the voting machine.

How's our vote secret then.? if its not secret, then how can it be powerful???

Lets hope that the power should come to someone or group of poeple who are less corrupt and more concerned abt this nation.

I am keeping my fingers crossed...... X

The Insurance assurance !

My god is it yr bike that's parked outside the apartment?

I came out of the kitchen to confirm the source of the query. Yes it was Shania, as usual she did nt ring the doorbell.

"Does it still resemble a bike?"
i replied back.

My god! its yrs,how did it happen? when did it happen are you alright??


relax baby,I am superman,the man of steel !

man of steel ???what happened to the orange theory???

ooh that is still valid,I was nt there in the scene of action when my bike face that atrocity.
Then how did it happen??





Well if u could plz enter that room you can see the man of the moment Mr Samir.
Shania move
s into the room..
Samir? why did he take yr bike?ooh my god! are you ok Samir?

Samir had a fractured left hand and some bruises scattered over his body like a natural art.He was a spectacular piece of natural wonder. I had no idea how and why he was alive and that too in my apartment.Interestingly Samir managed to get up from the bed and say hi to Shania.
Hi Shania! I am ok...just some minor things...I am alright..I am alright...he he..

Ya the minor things have so far costed over 1500 bucks...just for the hospital and misc expenses.



what abt the bike? What are you going to do abt that?You have insurance right?

ha ha ha...The insurance..ha ha ha....


What?? what makes you laugh??

Baby!! its a police case now.....Soem one has filed a FIR against this respectable man.He doesnt have a driving license.The insurance company wont pay my bills after going thru that FIR report.

Hey buddy! listen i am sorry..I thought that they will run out of stock..That was the reason i was driving rash..

what are you guys talking abt?

Hmm nothing....he's just... he's just gone crazy after the accident.

Shania was puzzled.

They were giving away free samples of Minute maid pulpy orange,So he sent me and this happened.Hey orangee look i am sorry...

I dont blame you,I blame myself.

ooh no blame me...i am the one responsible for this....blame me...

ok i blame you....its you.

How can you blame him?You gave him the bike.You wanted to have those free sample of pulpy orange.che!!! so cheap !!

Alright!! alright!! ceasefire,ceasefire.its over its over..there's no point blaming each other.

I went back to the kitchen and started preparing my cheese toast.Meanwhile Shania went to the balcony so that she can have a proper look of my battered bike.She could stop smiling. And not just a plain smile.It was the "you know i told you very well but you never listened to me" kind of a smile. Damn! I was very angry on Samir.Why the hell did he tell abt the freebie.It was so trivial.He didnt drive properly.

I told you that one day yr lust for oranges would cost you very high...and see it has happened.

he he...I was nt lustful abt the juice. I was only helping those college gals finish off their part time work
quickly so that they can go home. The cute yet hardworking SIET college gals ,centre of chennai near T nagar.They had sacrified so much of their white complex,facing the summer heat under the merge shadow of a tent.

Funny very funny! So how were the girls related to you....how did you know abt the freebie offer?

ha ha...ha ha...See thats me..It happens all the time...You wont understand.

So what are you soing to do abt the bike?

lol ! its all been taken care of.... lol

how is that possible?? what abt the FIR?

see i ll tell you how..An old langotiya yaar of mine whom u know as Spiky AKA Col. Ivanod Spigot has been spending the past few month outside that college.As a result of that he's now dating a girl who's dad is a highly placed official in the police department of chennai.And as we speak at this very special moment of history,Spiky has asked the gal to help me out of this case.And she has assured us that the matter is well under the expertise of her beloved dad.

Ooh now i understand why did you say that the gals from SIET are cute and hardworking...Well why is she doing this....??

I have no idea. she's doing it thats all i want to know...

I tell you Shania, Its love... The girl is mad abt our Spiky.

Ok so that makes some sense....

The doorbell rang.I said who's that? the answer came "its me Spiky" We all answered in chorus " come on in"

Yeh! there he is, My saviour,The boy himself,boyfriend of the moment and year Col. Ivanod Spigot aka Spiky....here i am wrongly accused for genocide,rape and extortion and been sentenced to death penalty and my nearest and dearest friend is dating the president of india. how's that?

Orangee..leave yr stupid talks.... Let me tell you what did i accomplish today..do you remember Richa from our school. I was mad behind her. remember???

Ya , the one who used to cry when she saw wall lizard on class room walls???

yup u got it....I saw her in city centre...and she recognised me.... and we talked for a while and she said that she wants to get back with me.

Go on...
( i was fearing the worst)

Ya thats when sheela came and she saw Richa going out.She spotted me with her. She asked whats going on. I told her that she's my long lost school day lover who wants to get back with me.

Sheela that new girl right??

ya ya....and now i was thinking what should i do? how would i tell her and console her. She asked me to speak the truth. And i said I am gonna get back with Richa.

What??? we all shouted in chorus.


what happened to the FIR and the out of the court dealing?
what FIR ,Court?? ooops i forgot abt that..


What the hell? My bike has been battered by that Mahindra scorpio and i want an insurance claim....

oooh dont worry,she ll still do it for you...infact she ll still do it for me..

Why why she ll do it? you dumped her...you idiot you dumped her...

No no...I consoled her before i did.... no i said that i am going to get back with richa.

That means the same idiot, U dumped her. My bike it gone.....It will die bcoz of those wounds. Somebody file a FIR on that Scorpio.it has assaulted my bike...

Relax Orangee! Its just an Yezdi roadking.people used to throw stones at ypu when u used to cross thier locality on that bike.Killing poeple who are already going to die isnt actually a crime. Yr bike has attained salvation from its earthy services.Ram Naam satya hae!


Shania and samir went to the balcony and started reciting....
Our Father ,who art in heaven,
hallowed be thy name,
thy kingdom come,
thy will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven...........

MORE ORANGEE

Misdirected into this haphazard world
Of confusion, I try to
Regain a kind of
Enlightenment about the direction that leads to El Dorado.

Orange is a simple fruit
Reason behind why it influenced my life
And redirected me towards El dorado is still unknown
Nothing is clear!
God only knows what’s happening to me
Encouragement has finally come in a train filled with the oranges.
Enthusiastically, I board that train and fall on the oranges, El Dorado here I come…


With gr8 powers of having a gr8 poetry teacher,comes gr8 responsibility of being a good student...i hope i am on the right track..Thank you Prats for the inspiration....

Michelle!!! My belle!!!

Where the steering wheel is held without fear

and the head is held high,

Where road ahead is free;

Where the engine has not been broken

up into fragments by the mechanics;

Where power come out from the

depth of throttle pedal;

Where tireless striving of the pistons

stretches itself towards

perfection;

Where the clear stream of engine oil and fuel

has not lost its way into the

dreary dusty tarmac of roads;

Where the spirit is led forward

by thee(driver) into ever-widening

adrenaline rush and nirvana.

The creature that takes you to

that heaven of freedom,

my Father,

Sold that car away.......

Aage Baadhte raho!!

Last night I received a call from one of my close friend whose name i cant write here....

he told me that he had a break up with his girlfriend.I asked him the how,why n what's about it and he said he does'nt know! Poor guy! hope he recovers soon and moves on with his life!


This incident made me conclude that all relationships are like a cricket match!
The boy is usually the batsmen and girls the one who is the bowler....umpire's are the people who are friends of both the boy and girl in relationship.And the concept of audience includes all those people who really dont know the boy or girl but still judge them just coz they have no other work.

Here's the list of what I feel about some technical terms in relationship!
  • LBW - Declared out when you try to come in between what the girls trying to achieve, it can be career,family, any thing.If you come in between then its out......U cant do that...
  • Caught-When u try certain prohibited things like having vodka in a party or flattering about other girls etc.. and you end up getting caught by someone.You can get caught by others or the girl herself(caught and bowled) and the worst is caught behind(they are the persons who's only aim of life is to catch your flaws).
  • Bowled-You are too busy in attempting to do something of yr own,when suddenly the ball slips past you and hits the stumps.
  • Stumped- Charging at your girlfriend,trying to show who's the boss,its ok.....but if you cross the limit you ll be stumped.
  • Run-out -This is adultery in relationships..when you are too greedy for more than one or two.
  • Googly - Questions like " hows this tee shirt? " you dont know how to answer... nice or bad!
  • Flipper- You may be expecting her at 7 pm at yr house,and its only 5 so you are still watching tv and didnt get ready and you suddenly find her at yr home at 5:30.
  • Yorker-Tough decisions that may bring you onto yr knees begging her....for eg "bungee jumping or me? choose between them"
  • Wide- Things that are beyond your reach for eg "get me the brightest star on the sky".You get credit when u fail in trying to reach them.
  • Noball - When she oversteps, or bowls over yr head. you get credit for it,you may get free hit for that.
  • Free hit - Bcoz she overstepped,next time you're free to do everything but getting involved in adultery(runout) is not allowed.
  • Hit Wicket-When you are too frustrated or afraid to face the girl ,you have the option to commit suicide and walk out of the relationship.
  • Retired hurt- When you dont want to be with this girl for time being,you can tell that u are not well and you have to assess yrself but will be available in sometime when you are ready.
Now the couple's common friends who are the umpires usually listen to the problems and sort out.They maintain the order of the game,keep the couples under control, decide on wides and noballs and declared to batman(boy) out or not out.


Usually the boy comes to know why he is out, what was being appleaded against him.
Before he walks out he know "Damn! i am caught n bowled, i should have tried to sweep that one". This is fair. But sometimes like in my friends case there was just an appeal,and he was given out. And thats the reason i feel we have neutral umpires in real cricket.
Some day it may happen that you are walking by the road and a unknown couple may walk to you with their case and urge u to be the umpire for getting unbiased decisions......who knows.....its a crazy world afterall.....



PS:- My friend if u happen to read this I would suggest u to watch the fastrack move-on video on youtube(17 secs walla),I tried hard to put it over here...but couldnt..plz dont think that the video is only for promoting fast track eye-gears. You have to move on.....go find a new gal and tell me...and be the guy who's in the green tee-shirt.....

Economic recession !!!

Pre script: A discussion abt economic recession at a B school.

Prof: Good morning class!

Students (chorus): Goooooddddd moooorrrrningggggg sir!

Prof:Ok! lets get started! The possible recession may not seem like it will have a big empact on our day-to-day lives,but the fact of matter is that it will affect students just as much as anybody else, if not more.

Students:hmmm

Prof: So can any one tell me how will it affect students?

One of them raises his hand

Prof: Yes!

The student: I think children will now read Snow White and the 5 dwarfs and Ali Baba and 30 thieves instead of Snow White and 7 dwarfs and Ali Baba and 40 thieves.

Prof and the class: ????!!!!

Disco for the clothes!

The washing machine is the disco for the clothes.All of us live in a civilised society and most of us behave in a civilized manner.So to fulfil the requirements of this civilized society we all wear clothes we ever we go out and meet people.We all need clothes,not just for protection against weather but for style statements and other desires.
I was wondering what do clothes need?I mean what kind of a life they live.They are all born in a cloth factory with no owner or parent.Then they are sent to shops,few of the lucky one's are sent to big shopping malls.People come to see them.Some of them reject them at first sight.Some try them on and then stare at the mirror and ask for opinions from their friends.If they are satisfied with the clothes they pay the bill and bring them home.

Then comes the second phase of their life.They spend most of the time inside the wardrobe.Its darkness inside most of the time.They have to trade the terrible smell of napthalene balls for the absence of insects and fungi.They cant date with other clothes because the wardrobe's owner may not like the combination.A shirt cant fall in love with a pant of its choice.The wardrobe is a country where love marriage between clothes is still a taboo.Arranged marriage is the rule of the country.Most of them must be discussing about their next outing.Some of them may be jealous of each other and feel that they are the best dress over there.

Finally a D Day arrives,the owner opens the wardrobe and starts his/her hunt.All the clothes are excited.They must be praying to god that this is their day.After 5-10 mintues in case of male owner and about half an hour in case of a female owner,all the clothes have to be satisfied with their destiny.The chosen ones enjoy the fresh air,but then they realise that life outside the wardrobe isnt that good.They have to face the scorching heat, sometimes rain,polluted air.Some of them cant face the owners action packed life and they suffer injuries.And almost every one have to face one mandatory torture-sweat and body odour mixed with dirt.

So after all this torture they are finally sent to a Disco ie the washing machine.Now they can hang out with others,get wet and roll-on the dance floor.The shirt can pick up the pant of its choice and have a dance.They have absolutely no fear of getting caught.The floor(washing machine) stops rotating once the owner attempts to peep inside.The detergent and liquid conditioner would be the grass and booze for the clothes.A little bit of these will keep them good.Too much will kill them.So after weeks of not so happening life,they finally get to spend a few hours inside the disco and then its back to the normal boring life.

Finally the clothes get old and then the owner nevers throws a look at them.They never get a chance for an outing.They are buried in a heap of not so old and new clothes that join the wardrobe.Thats the story of clothes and their only chance of having fun.

My Philos

Philos!
Yes he's my best friend.I am nothing without him.I wonder how would I manage a day without him.A real friend who has always stood by me when I replay the smiles,laughter and what not emotions of the day in my memory.There have been times when he couldnt help me but i can never blame him for those incidents.It was me who did nt care for him and hence he was nt in a position to help me.I must have failed many times in caring for him but he has always stood by myself whenever I needed him.I have a very good memory but its nothing when it comes to him.
I can completely trust him.Many a times I have forgotten about others but he never forgets and reminds me about other people.He even stays connecte dto yahoo messenger and informs me whose online and who wants to have a chat with me.He's has been with me through all the moments of glory and failure!
I has looked after me so well.I wonder how can I ever repay him back.

Even when I sleep he keeps awake and in the morning he wakes me up as scheduled.Thank u so much dad that u introduced me to the best friend in my life!
Yes u must have guessed it right!I am talking about my mobilephone.He's my best friend!
I am nothing without him!Cheers mate!

Misdirected Washing

Mismanaged washing of clothes! Ya, that what I just did.
Tomorrow I am going for an outing and wanted myself in a specific outfit.The guys have decided on a color code.Blue jeans and black Tees and a black sports jacket....I was part of this feminine type of debate over the phone and finally voted for the blue-black combination.After 15-20 mins of debate the verdict was out and it was the blue-black combination that won.

So went to my wardrobe to choose the outfit and was shocked to see that none of the clothes that had come from washing were blue or black in color.It was 3 pm and I thought all would be fine if I use the washing machine.So finally took the clothes(chosen ones) and brought the washing machine to life by connecting its wire to the switch board and dumped all the clothes inside the tube.Connected the pipe with the tap and programmed it for a quick-wool-wash.Then I added the detergent.Turned the tap on and a few seconds later later the machine demonstrated its waterfall effect of adding water inside the tub.

Everything was fine but after a few minutes the water effect ended without any warning.The tub showed no intentions of rotation.Only the lights blinked,I went for and inspection and it didnt take me long to find out that there was no water supply.Gr8! I was already pissed off due to the fuel shortage and long queues outside Petrol Station and now water too....

The clothes were wet with detergent water so the idea about wearing clothes that werent washed is also out of question.I am still waiting for the water supply to come back!I wish it comes soon.

And thats the story behind mismanaged washing!!!

Mood and the Energy Law!

I have come to the conclusion that bad mood can neither be created nor destroyed.It can only be transferred from one person to another.There are so many examples to support this view.I dont know whether this law can be applied on everyone's life but I am pretty sure about the one's around me.


Well once I was in a very bad mood.Few of my cousins conspired against me and made a mess of my day.Everyone around me treated me as if am some kind of a boogie man.It was damn frustrating...tried to watch the TV but there was no privacy.Everyone was just swarming around me.It was getting worse and luckily I received a phone call from my friend Shreya.Now she guessed correctly that somethings wrong with me and suggested that its better that I move out from the epicentre of problem.I agreed and we decided to watch a movie.But bad mood law was still not supporting me.every one around me had somekind of a force shield that protected them from dangerous bad mood energy.But kept radiating it on me and extracting my positive or good mood energy.There was no vehicle at home.Someone took it for their joy rides.I called my friend and told her to bring her barbie doll vehicle.She drove,I sat behind and we reached the multiplex on time.She went to park the vehicle and went to buy the tickets.

Turning point of the day:I met another friend mine near the counter.Priyanka was with her friend(boyfriend) .I learnt that they are going to watch the same movie.So we brought 4 tickets and I waited for Shreya to come back and the couple left inside.She came back from the parking lot a little late and we entered inside and I told her about the company that we had.And that was the moment.The moment of energy changes!

The other boy was head over heels in love(claimed) with Shreya just a few months before.But things did work out so it died off.Now she was surprised to see him with Priyanka.It was obvious that Priyanka didnt know anything about this.Well Shreya didnt react much but the boy's face was pale.Nothing much happend and we went inside after a little hello and took our seats.Now as the movie started I felt a Strange feeling inside me as if something is flowing out of me.

The movie wasnt that interesting but things around me was really getting spicy.Noone was interested in the movie and Shreya didnt allow me take interest elsewhere.The intermission proved to be a diaster for the boy who came to enjoy and have a happy time with his new found love.My destiny or fate had something else for him.Shreya told Priyanka everything abt him.The boy couldnt hide his face.I tried my best to pacify the situation.But angry gals are a difficult subjest to handle.Few moments later Priyanka left the multiplex the both followed her like the vodafone Pug.We stayed inside but I knew that I am not gonna listen to the movie's dialogues but shreya's monologue about the incident.

Surprising I was feeling better but everyone around me was in a very bad mood.Did I do something wrong??Nopes! Sitting together was Priyanka's idea,Movie was Shreya's idea. I thought there was no reason to feel guilty about what had happened.The movie finally ended an she(fuming mood) dropped me home.I was fine at home to.I was still smiling even thoughi was hearing the same things That I heard in the afternoon.

So i think this proves the mood and energy law.....
lolz what a day!!!what a day!!

Move on the easy way!

"Search for it! I am sure u ll find it!"
"hey buddy! it just cant walk away from the house,I feel its somewhere inside the house"
"Did u try calling it!"
"May be its dead so u r not able listen to it"

These were the statements made by my friends few days back and I had only one answer for them.

"Guys! I know very well that it was next to me,when I had my siesta.When I woke up it wasnt there."

I pondered for a while and then said "Guys! I am serious now.Is this a prank?or is it really gone?"
The look on my friends faces told me that that it was really gone."It" was my cellphone.Somebody took it or stole it while I was having dreams in which North Korea and South Korea decide to unite.

So now when i realized that this is no prank and really somebody eloped with my cellphone I started to feel the terrible pain of seperation.How will I be able to live with out it? How can I move on with my life after losing a 12k+ bucks worth materialistic pleasure.

"Leave me alone! u guys can watch TV." i said to my friends.I entered my room,switched off the lights and then fell face down on the bed.I used the pillow to cover my head.Spent a few minutes thinking how can i move on with this tremendous tragedy?I was losing faith when a tubelight got lit inside my brain.Yes, I got the idea.

I felt a surge of energy inside me and got up from the bed and came outside my room.
My friends had a puzzled look on their face.That made me smile and one of my friend got highly infected with that and said " BEER OR VODKA ?"

"Probably not today,but someday when u ll lose yr cellphone we ll share yr tragedy,for now I have a different plan" I replied
Chorus-"what plan?"

I answered " hmm...I need a cellphone for that,who is gonna help me"

Chorus-"Are u goin to call the police? "

I gave a smile and answered "No! but i ll call someone,who ll surely make me feel better,i gonna call DRDO "

Chorus-"DRDO"
Me-"ya D.R who Dumped Orangee"
Chorus-"oooooohhhhhhh..........."

Me-"I am moving out,I ll be back in sometime.U guys have a surprise"

I moved outside and dialed the number.5 rings and DR picks up.

DR-Hello!
Me-Hi! Its me More!
DR- ooh! after so many days? what happened?
Me- ya..i was thinking abt u,so i called!
DR- thinking abt me? thats strange! so this is yr new number?
Me- Can u call me...??this isnt my new number.
DR- u never have balance to call me! Why should I call u?
Me- Bcoz......call up and find out! Plz! I really need to talk with u.
DR-ok i am calling...

moments later the cellphone i held in my left hand rang and i picked up.

Me-hello again!
DR-Ya! what do u want to talk?
Me- I want u back.I cant live without u! Plz come back!
DR- ooh...well i am really surprised now.back?Its too late..i have told u,its impossible!
Me- plz plz..I know for sure i cant live without u.I have tried a lot,but i cant, it just u.
DR- ooh pleaze! dont lie I am sick of yr lies...
Me- Listen there's no one in the world thats like u! I know this for sure.
DR- Really? i thought Shreya was better than me. U can now have a lot for her.
         I wont say anything.I am least bothered!
Me-I already had a lot with her.presently i am full!
DR- So u finally accept u had something with her?
Me- yes,i had coffee,pizza and yesterday i had a zinger burger with her!
DR- U ll never be serious right.U wont change.
Me- what? What did u mean...all that i had was eatable,nothing else.! u were the one to doubt!
DR- i know u have something for her.
Me- ooh plz! believe me i had nothing with her, i ll have nothing for her.She's my best friend!
DR-A boy and a girl cant be just friends! U know that very well.
Me- yup agreed! but only in movies especially bollywood!
DR -Stop it! I have moved on. I cant be with u.U have cheated me. I have not just heard abt u         from others but that day i even saw u.
Me- i have explained abt that.Why dont u believe me?
DR- No i cant, I wont. I cant risk my life with such a dual character boy.
Me- Dual? dual? come back plz! plz believe!
DR- u ll have to choose between me and her!
Me- even if i prove that there's really nothing between me and her!
DR- Yes,i want u out of yr life! Only then i ll be able to trust u!
Me-.........................
DR- what? answer me!!! tell me....decide fast. Me or her!
Me-but she's my best friend since childhood,how could i leave her....
DR-...............................
Me- i mean the friendship! why are u so much into movies and all?
        Believe me... This is no jaane tu ya jaane na story!
DR- I think u have decided yr choice!
Me- what? So u wont have me the way i am..I wanna change me completly?
DR- I still didnt get my answer.Me or her!
Me- both!!!
DR- Fine....i am never ever gonna come back.Plz stop calling me.I never wanna talk with u.
Me- hey!!!!!!!!! hufffffff


I returned back to my apartment.
My friend (AangRaj) Karn said " i cant believe it, u just lost yr phone, and u were having a amazing conversation with yr ex gf! that smile never disappeared from yr face!"

I replied "What do u guys want? take the my wallet and bring whatever u want.Its party! It the move on march parade"

Chorus-" crazy u....so that was the hidden surprise.!!!"

Me- "yup,U got it right this time."


P.S:- moral of the conversation is -We lose many things and people in our life.But we move on.
        Its difficult to move on at first,but then u can help yrself by remembering yr past when i         moved on.That achievement in the past will help u in moving on with present loses.!
