and.......the countdown begins................................................................................................................................................................................................

Oye Miyak!

Don't aim at building a ship...

long for the endless immensity of the sea...

The ultimate pleasure for a Virgo would be to see her house turn green and Gold...and to buy the most soothing curtains sheets flowers shades and mirros in blistering heat for a freshly done up house....

Very typical of me...

Ann looked over from the deck and said, "making him smile makes up for the weeks of tears i've drowned".


another one ive come across...

Nick said, "i'd rather fight with you, than make love with someone else"



and another one...

She looked through the window and said to herself,"He always wants me to keep smiling... he just isn't ready to accept me as i am."


and another one...

"I just wanted to make you happy...you made my day"

Aerodynamically, the bumble bee shouldn't be able to fly,
but the bumble bee doesn't know it so it goes on flying anyway

Kambakht Ishq!

OVERZEALOUS "when i think about her, i want to kill her...but when i see her..there's nothing that seems more complete at that moment"

OBSCURE "I like him...but i really like his friend too....ironically it was his friend who made me feel secure.But i cant be with the second guy.....the first will be hurt....and the first...dosent have the time to be with me"

NONCHALANT "I love all of them.Each one of them makes me feel happy in their own way"

LANGUID "The light at the end of the tunnel...is you"

MEAN "Who said you are beautiful.....ive seen 100 girls who are better "

ONTOGENOUS "I would have remained the same.....you make me wana change"

REAL "not a couple.........we are a family"

UNREACTIVE "I know i did'nt have the time... but i would get whatever you would ever need in the world...clothes..money...horses...anything"

THWARTING "The problem is...he grew old..i did'nt"

NAIVE "I could never get a girlfriend....maybe i should get married now"

DOLTISH "So what if i mess around....it is only she i would wana marry"

these were a few phrases and sentences shared by people around me.....some that make you smile..others hurt...and yet others that leave a zillion question marks in ones head....

however each complete in its own sense.....
one love....so many ways to look at it...

Rain outside
Clouds in Black attire wrapping the heaven above
Trees like dancing tongue of flame to warm the heart
Morning suns and evening Dews..
i stand in the balcony
u r nowhere to be seen

Gluttony

I remember the time when i had just joined Tehelka and discovered a Mecca right next to my office - Costa Coffee..

I have a thing for Bread and cold meat......id anyday prefer it to the paranthas (not coz of the weight problem...that needs to dealt with)....but coz it suits my taste buds the most...

Believe me,this is not a publicity stunt and and i dont see the Costa guys giving me even a sandwitch for free coz of what im writing......but despite the menu prices that seem to be soaring....ive always enjoyed a snack or sometinmes a sandwitch 'meal'.

Today dinesh ji refused to have lunch, boss was away...and i had four hours before i'd get a chance to flee from the prison. I decided i have to get over the habit of 'not eating alone' and start to relish things 'all by myself'...

Its been ages i havent treated myself there.....been treated......today i stepped in to satisfy my taste buds all alone....
Im pretty stuck up when it comes to trying out new things......so i ordered the same ol stuff that ive been eating for months....

- Lemon chicken sandwitch
- Pesto Sandwitch
- Coffee Frescato

A.M.A.Z.I.N.G!

ME + COSTA = NIRVANA



Now im back on my seat......still sipping the frescato......thoughts thoughts thoughts from everywhere...

freefalling....

I try to believe like i believed when I was five...
when your heart tells you everything you need to know...

the best thing about fights....
is to make up and realize how you just cant do without.......

the best thing about memories is not the people....
but the reoccuring visual flashes they create...

the best thing about songs is not the lyrics or tune,
but the fact that they are atached to the memories of some people....
