A Bleh Post.

Exams are still far. And I wonder when they'll finally end! I mean whatever in hell was I thinking..going from being a Biology expert (self-acclaimed) to Maths..to finally making up my mind to doing this. Now, all I have to do is to start ALL over again from the basics of the new set of subjects I have picked up for myself to bring myself at par with my counterparts, who, lucky or not, were NOT a confused mass of protoplasm that could not bring itself to decide what it really wanted to do, neither could stick to choices made earlier. Hmph.

I'm so bored, I could compete for the Guinness Book Title for the 'Most Bored Person', if there is one. Is there?

And the lazy one too. I can't bring myself to go out for a jog, even though, thanks Mom, but I do realize that I've already gained back 2 of the 4 kilos I lost a month before. The so-called great-crier is too lazy to cry even.

I miss my normal hyper - excited self. My inner-self is so much at calm, it's beginning to irritate my inner-inner-self. I don't crib, don't shriek the loudest shriek when I find my brother coming out of nowhere, trying to scare me with a "Boww!" (As in, you know, cow says 'Moo', dog says 'Bow-Wow'. I think it's more of a Bhaoowww--oooo--ooooowwww in life out of nursery kids' "Who says what" book.) because he doesn't do that anymore. Apparently he's too grown up for that. I'm not mad at anyone. I don't want to let anyone die a dog's death, kutte ki maut, you know. Also, as much as I love Shah rukh and as much as I'll miss seeing him cheering Kolkatta Knight Riders play in Feroz Shah Kotla grounds, I'm not banging my head against the hardest wall OR crying OR plotting whoever-decided-to-have-no-IPL-in-India's murder. I'm just sad. It's a shame though that we can't have security for both the Elections and IPL.

Got my hair cut yesterday. And the best compliment I got was from a random guy from my coaching class who, addressing his friend, random guy 2 from coaching class, said something that went like - "Yaar ye toh galat baat hai. Ladkiyon ko kuch bhi pehnado, smart hi lagti hain!" as I passed by. Bleh. Can't deny the sudden urge to turn around and tell him in-his-face it was the hair, not the clothes, dammit!

My Income Tax teacher stopped me on my way back to tell me how sure he was that I could easily achieve a good rank in my tests in November if I studied well. I hate pressure of performance.

The cute guy next door (the five-year old one) finally gave up his act of being a self - absorbed, snobbish little kid and waved back at me for the first time ever! I don't think he talks.

No one called up to wish me on my 20th birthday. Damn it, my very own parents even won't wish me. Because..I was 20 years old and that is why, no one wanted to have me in their lives anymore. These dreams are bloody sucking (extra emphasis on the 'k') dreams that really don't have any meanings, you know. I wish I could have that dream in which I was Krisshh just one last time.

I've lost my 'Company and Compensation Laws' book. And as each day passes, I gain more and more inspiration to invent that 'Google machine/robot' that knows everything, can answer all questions. I could feed in the particulars of my book then and it could find it for me.

I'm more distracted than ever. I just DON'T want to study. And I don't want to go to my parents asking for help as I already know what they'll say. Meditation, Pranayam, Blah.

NOO!!

Wow!! That was my first extreme reaction in days!


P.S.: Do shut off all lights in support of the Earth Hour today for one hour - 8.30 to 9.30 p.m.

Sinful eating and cheap video games - HEAVEN

Every inch of my body is a cramp. And although this trip was supposed to make me all fresh and new so that I can jump into the battlefield with my Gladiator sword once again to fight stupid Income Tax Act, stupid accounts and all those stupid subjects that have a tendency to get me into the self-pity mode on and off, I haven't felt groggier in months. Argh..PAIN!

No denying the awful lot of fun I had..that got me into this!

Yay!! So I went to Shimla..for the ninth time for a three and half day trip.. Why I've been to Shimla so many times is another story - will explain later. Important thing is, it still remains one of my most favorite places in the world. No one ever gets why I like the Mall Road of Shimla so much! So this post..is dedicated to my love..my dream place..Simla (or Shimla..whatever!) and all the things I love about it!

It's cold.

It's so close to Delhi.

The hills are adorable. Can just keep looking at them forever.

Ek rupay wali VIDEO GAMES!!


Thoda Panga ho gaya. Thanks to inflation, they are now - Do rupay wali VIDEO GAMES!! Hmph. X(. But then, everyone still calls Bengaluru Bangalore!

Anyway, this video game parlour on the Mall still remains the cheapest there ever was! I can easily spend a day there. Plus, turns out, Himachalis are not really good at video games. I mean if I could easily hit the High Score in Mustafa..that counts for something, right? :D

KURKEJ!!

Kurkej, which may seem like a weird name for something that sells at a bakery is just that. It's an invention of Krishna Bakers which stands right on the Mall Road (and has awesome pastries too!). Could not get a picture. You can guess why. Kind-of Vegetable Kebab-ish with three awesome sauces. Sets the showers in my mouth going.



SOFTY!!

Although we have them everywhere now..Softies were an invention of the hill-stations. It's still more fun to have a softy on a hill-station than anywhere else.




HAPPIER DUSTBINS!!


(click on the image for a better view.)

CAFE SOL!!

Cafe Sol is this awesome place (Cafe, duh) which is a part Hotel Combermere. Apart from the awesome interiors (It's all blue at night and orange-yellow in the day), this place serves really good Mexican and Italian food at prices way cheaper than anywhere in Delhi! Also, cute waiters. ;) omg..I want to go back!

HONEY HUT!!

Honey Hut is this small, really cute Cafe at the Mall where every sweet thing they sell has honey in it in place of sugar. Thank God, they spared the sandwiches though. I'm not a big fan of honey like Papa is. But the Honey softy and Honey-Tomato Soup actually tasted great when I pretended there's no honey in it.


And..Tadaa...Here it comes...The new thing this time for me was -



SKATING!!

Here we come to the part that got me all cramped and half-dead. The only way I can connect with Bella of Twilight is her balance problems. I've had them since I was a little kid. My scars from various accidents while cycling/running/cycling/standing straight, right before the great fall (out of shock - when the dog came running)/playing football etc. back then are still there.

But when I saw kids half my age skating like professionals..I thought - Who the hell cares!! And..WOW!! I was flying, if the skating rink was a sky..! Like a true champ.. All those skating lessons that I took some 10 years back were suddenly afresh in my mind - bend over, step and skate, move the hands - everything!

.."woohooooo..I'm going to Commonwealth, 2010!!!"..

..And you know what happened after that. I fell with my body twisted in every awkward angle possible. (stop picturing it!!)

And bad as it was, I went on and on ..had 7 more falls in 45 minutes (My brother was counting, ass!)

I'm thinking of continuing this..after my exams..if they ever get over! I finally have a sport I like.


Overall, my trip rocked as usual! :D

There are more things to tell. But I gotta study!

Hum hain rahi pyaar ke..Fir milenge chalte chalte..! ;D

How's that even possible!

Caller: Hullo, hullo..Is this your number??

I: Um, yes.

Caller: But, it's mine!!!

I: Whaaa..? Hah..It's my number!!

Caller: You know, it's mine and now, it's yours too!

I: How's that even possible?!?

Caller: When did you get this number??

I: Some five months back. Why?

Caller: Because I had this number..then I gave it to an acquaintance in Bombay and did not use it for six months. Now, I've got a SIM for the same number and had given it to my family in Tamil Nadu..Although I haven't activated the SIM in my phone yet..And my family, they say that whenever they call, the ring goes but, no one picks up..So I decided to call up myself to check..what's up!

I: (Bombay...Tamil Nadu...Uh, Ohkay..) But, I can't help you, sir..it's my number now..

Wonder what's up!

Pichhle das dinon mein...

I really think I deserve this, after trying to "abstain" from the internet the last ten days - especially trying to stay away from my new-born, my blog! Oh, I missed you.

Yeah, so I was studying, trying to rebuild my once all-evasive will power. I tried so hard to keep all the random train-of-thoughts that my mind keeps boarding on and off, especially while I'm studying. And, I was almost successful. And yet, this post is dedicated to all the totally random thoughts that floated in and out of my thinking space the last ten days.

You guys suck man! :
Horrible, horrible things never stop to happen in or around our neighborhood. I mean shooting 5 Sri Lankan players while they were on way to the stadium to play cricket!! I was like shocked outta my wits!! My first reaction to the news almost gave a heart-attack to my grandmom! I was so shocked and disgusted at these people. We're helpless. They come, attack us and go. We can't even do anything about it. It's sad. What's sadder though, is that the Pakistani Government, as very well expected by me, won't even accept the blame for the shootings that took place in their own country in the beginning!! Impossible people.

The radio was on and there were listeners calling in to share their pretty violent with anger views as soon as the word of the incident spread around. There was a person who said something like "If it had been Dhoni or Sachin or someone- I swear to God, I would have killed them!!". Totally man, totally. I would have gone with you!

I surprise myself! : I'm SO happy with myself lately! I finally got over my phase of depression and constantly thinking 'I'm so lonely and I'm so sad' and am back to the original me! I did not even blame the whole world this Sunday because my plan of going out with my friends to some place nice did not materialize. A little secret. I pep talk myself. ;) . Go girl!! :)


The scrubs Guy rocks!!: I've been watching Scrubs lately with my breakfast and lunch-alone breaks. I love the show. Apart from my interest in Biology, it's funny to the core. No strings attached - types. Zach Braff is like..LOL. I love his character J.D. for momentarily stopping to daydream and switching to talk-to-self mode even when others are waiting for a response from him! I mean the guy's awesome. :D


I want I-pod nano 8GB SO desperately now!! Only problem is, I don't have the time to research and find out the best price I can get it at. Hmph.

Look who's here!!!: I LOVE JACKIE CHAN!! I do. I love him like...LOVE him!! And now, Jaycee Chan is here!! Woohoo. Go son!! Make Daddy proud!! Waiting as hell for "The Invisible Target"!! OMG..He's soo cuuute!! And, he likes Indian movies and wants to do Bollywood numbers with all the dance and music and colours!! Best thing, he thinks Indians must be a happy lot because of the kind of songs in our movies! :)

P.S.: He thinks Mallika Sherawat is down to earth and that gives him the impression that all Indians must be like that!! ROFLMAO.


P.P.S.: Isn't he a total copy of Jackie Chan?!
