If being straightforward is a crime then I surely commit it all the time..i don’t like pleasing people!! So that actually makes me very vulnerable in this fake world. The other day I was been insulted and humiliated just because I was being honest!!

We all must have written an essay during our school days “ The day everything went wrong ”..well its just that it happened with me but, unfortunately the day stretched a bit longer than usual!!

I don’t understand why some people want to be pleased all the time. May be they think they are way too important and intelligent…and these are the very people who should be able to tell the right from the wrong!! And when you don’t really suck up to them they accuse you of being over confident…

I don’t care what they think of me….its not going to stop me from being what I am – brutally honest!!

Long ago, I had heard a story of an old lady who lived all alone…one day while doing her routine work she loses her specs. She searches for them all over the place…in a little while it would be dark, and then it would be difficult for her to see anything at all. Frantically she tries all the nooks and corners of the house…but in vain! She must soon find it or else she would lose her way….

Just then, when she has given up..She sees herself in the mirror. A childish smile breaks on that wrinkled face…all the time that she was searching for the specs..They were nicely perched on her nose!!

Many a times, even we search for things that are right in front of us…they always were! But due to our ignorance we never realized their presence in our lives until we lose them…

Some geeks like me don’t even comprehend their absence until (although I missed it sometimes!) its right back in front of them. Its then, that it hits you that what you have been looking for was always around you…its we who look for it in all the wrong places! And once we realize this we too smile to ourselves like the old lady…

I just did!!

When life seems to be puurrfectly straight and simple, there has to be a very filmy almost bollywoodish turn to it...and then there are always two ways!!and you got to decide which way you want to go...

right now i just want to go straight... without having to make any of the choices!!or may be i have already made them in my mind but im still not sure...coz waiting till everything falls in place is veryy irritating at times....

im seriously growing impatient!!

Feeling blue!!

From the past few days my life has been erratic, confusing, monotonous.........and the worst part is that i am doing nothing to make it better. today was one of those days when you just dont feel like doing anything and feel irritable because you are not doing anything worthwhile...

im not a workoholic!!but i hate holidays espescially when they are too many!!its not that i dont know where life is headed..i know wat i want...strange..eh??but i duno wat to do to get there....i know im totally confused!!and may be dats y m writing random things...trying to get a direction - a perspective!!

Looking Ahead

Well 2007 is here and so am i!!i am back where i belong...amongst friends and having a blast..the past few months were trying times for me and my friends, what with busy schedules and battling the mumbai university...and to top it all exam getting postponed and a verryy deserving break - a trip to the north india brutally snatched from us by the fates!!

But 2007 has begun with hope and joy...well i dont really believe in resolutions barring a few like losing weight, getting placed with a good organization who pays me what i want, trying to see all possible movies before i get placed, having a blast wid friends b4 its tme to go our own ways, not to gossip, eat healthy and avoid junk....

er!!.....did i say no resolutions!!!can we help it!!

This year seems to be smattered with memorable moments , small joys and big smiles what with my two best friends getting engaged..me starting with job(hopefully!!....with the pace with which the placements seem to be going does not seem possible to me) and the release of harry potter and the deathly hallows(big grin)....well this reminds me of all d animated discussions with jo in the lec today which kept us from dozzing off...good movies, new places to eat...cherishing old friendships and discovering new ones..i think with a lil hard work and determination we can see this year thru..and so looks like there is a lot to look forward to this year..the eternal optimist that i am!!
