20 things!!
YeePIEEE!! Exams are over and its holidayssss!!! You people may be doing a bit of traveling. And happen to travel by train.
But the damn train is going to be late for hours and you are waiting all alone.
Pikkupage guide on what to do when stuck in a railway station:
1] Neatly lay your handkerchief on the ground, pull out your music player and start dancing. You may earn some POCKET MONEY.
2] Get into random trains walk the whole length of the train and tell people its your seat they are sitting on.
3] If the above idea turns ugly and if people didn’t find it funny, then RUN!
4] Start doing stretching exercises include splitting your legs and cry out in pain if you can’t do it fully!
5] Walk till the end of the platform; go to the next one till the last platform. Now repeat this in reverse, but JOG this time.
6] Dress up in saffron and do a Baba Ramdev imitation.
7] After the YOGA you need to rest , so lay down on the bench and do 'NIDRAASAN', to make it more real play some OOOOOOOMMMMMMMMM OOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMM kind of music on the player.
8] And suddenly wake up with a shocked expression and run around madly yelling ‘BOMB IN MY ASS…BOMB IN MY ASS’, when everyone is scared and runs away ,with a relieved expression on your face let out a gentle FART.
9] If the Guards or the Police don’t shoot you when you yelled BOMB and if you are still alive we shall continue to the next step.
10] Hire a coolie and order him to entertain you!!
11] That may not work.
12] Jump into a train and try peeing in every toilet of every boogie. You can ask another fellow waiting ‘male’ passenger to compete with you.
13] Well you can cheat by making “ssshhhh” sounds once you are inside. He will never know ;)
14] Go to the waiting room and DON’T WAIT there!! The room will be really pissed by that :D
15] Check out the prettiest girl in the platform and March past her like you did in school and salute her.
16] She may not be interested in you anymore but don’t let that deter you, keep trying that on every other girl, at least one of them will have a bad taste and may find that funny and get impressed.
17] And if you happen to be a girl try that on a guy. He sure will like what ever you do!! Trust me!!
18] Go to the newsstand and read the headlines and with an evil laughter tease the shopkeeper “yessssssss!!! I read the headlines for freee …nananananananaaaa MUHAHAHAHAHAHA”
19] Start studying for your next exam!! HUH???!!!
20] Get into a browsing center if any in the station and see my **** (the stars stand for ‘B L O G’ you dirty minds!!!)
CAUTION : DO NOT TRY THESE AT HOME :D

At first sight
She was sitting with her long legs resting over the small stool and looking over the window, The full moon peeped in from between the scattering clouds, the drizzle left behind puddles of water on the road which glistened golden under the sodium vapor streetlights.
The cloudy sky reflected the gloominess in her life. She wanted a breath of fresh air and still in her short silky night gown she slipped in to her sandals and out she went. Crossing her arms with a slight shiver she walked alone in the dark night, which went darker with the sudden power cut! Though having second thoughts about the whole walking thing now, she carried on. The eerie calmness accompanied by the cold of the night raised innumerable Goosebumps on her soft smooth skin. She pulled out a cigarette and lit it with a lighter. The flame warmed her and the warm smoke gushed into her lungs and she felt more alive. Closing her eyes and opening her bright red lips into a "o" she breathed out the smoke out in rings. And she opened her beautiful blue eyes and watched the smoke ring enlarge and rise into the sky, the moonlight and the trees nearby made the whole atmosphere seem magical.
He looked at the brown steaming hot coffee, the brew was perfect so was the aroma of the beans as he savored it. He just loved the warm caffeine run down his throat when everything around was chilled. But as the vapors rose he saw something or someone at a distance. Keeping his favorite red mug down on the table and crossing his lush green lawn he walked over to the compound wall and looked at her. She was unlike anyone he had seen before. She was the most beautiful of all the girls he had been with. There was something about her. The lit cigarette dangling loosely in her hand, the smoke she was blowing out, the slight flutter of her night gown in the gentle cool breeze. The sight was hotter then any coffee he ever had! She was gorgeous from head to toe! Just the sight of it gave him goose bumps all over and he pinched himself both to reassure himself that he wasn't dreaming and to keep the blood flowing in his hands, he watched the magical sight.
And then, she looked up at him through her blue eyes straight into his own light brown eyes. And they smiled with naughtiness in both of their eyes.
"CUT!!!!!" Next shot tomorrow!! Now Paack up!!" Yells The Director over the mike!
(Then he rushes over to the actors and greets them) Wonderful shot madaaam!!!, saar, soooper shot saar!!!
(The Director Mr.Murugudaasum is jubilated; the shot came off just as he wanted it to)
She (with a arrogance of a leading lady asks to the spot boy) : "huh! Finally!! Thank god!! Is my car ready??" And she walks off in a hurry without giving a cursory glance at Him.
He(madly lusting over the leading lady smiles inwardly as he imagines a love scene next and asks the director eagerlyand with a smug): Hey Mr. Director, what’s the next scene??
Mr.Murugudaasum: saaar accident scene saar!!! didn't you read the script saar?! You just scream in shock " aiyooo meenakshiiii" when a branch from a tree falls "accidently" on Madaaam's head saar!! Wonderfull script saar. Audience will be in tears saar!!! Ofcourse saar to make the impact more evident we will slip an Item song and dance called “ bahooottt dard hota hai ” !!
This Sudden twist or the fall of branch will knoct out the heroinesaar and she wil have the shocked expression on her face like forever saar and this will make drive you into Maddness saar, which cannot be cured saar and the producer wants a new twist saar he wants to Bump you off and your make soul be reborn as Superstar Himesh reshamiya saar who will then fall in love with the knocked out lady with no expressions whats so ever due to the imact saar and cure her and live happily ever after saar !!! That reminds me saar Madaam will look very saaexy in the “ghajini “ hairstyle after her surgery saar!!!
wow saar!! Such a emotional and thrilling story saar!!
He: waat?? $@#& !!! emmm errr...ohhh hmmm....(and faints)
Authors note:Fans of Ghajini and himass sorry himesh ..please think of this as a publicity ;)

Bounce Back!
As I write this, the speakers are doing "Shut up and Bounce"( a song from Dostana) and my neighbor kid is bursting a never ending cracker marathon thingy which is just not willing to SHUT UP!!!(Notice the growing irritation towards Crackers ?? )
You must be wondering what was the great thing that spared you of posts on this blog.
Well its called "writers block".( I Am no writer but there was a certain mental block or something)
There was nothing happening which would be worth all the typing and publishing (and I heard what you just said!! "As if the previous posts were worth it" :P )
I ran out of stories on Friends (Well not exactly, just waiting for more INTERESTING developments, WATCH THIS SPACE ;)). And I won't be writing mine of course :D
I had enough of answering to lousy questions about myself or otherwise and posting them. I mean who cares about it??
And I seriously didn't want to write about all the weird dreams that I've been having lately.( The other person involved wouldn't want me to either. :D)
Though all 3 of us (me, Sabi and Sheki- who BTW started MOBILE BLOGGING it as and when things happened ) set out to write a blog entry on our Mangalore trip, but, none came up with it. Wonder why? (We were so very GOOD there ;))
The cells in the brain and heart (dil ki awaaz) didn't agree on anything and nothing qualified as good enough. Or may be I shall cut all the bullshit and say I was plain lazy! But with all the special classes, tuitions and of course the college I wouldn't call myself lazy!!
But then at this rate the handful of my readers will soon forget this lovely blog (:D) So thought would just drop in and wish you all a Happy Diwali!!
Go burst those loud polluting expensive crackers for which little children in a small dusty village near Sivakasi toiled day and night, holed up in a small window less dark room to make a few extra paisa for their family !! (Ahh the sadistic pleasure in putting someone off :D)
Go BANG BANG BANG BOOM BOOM !!!(so how many of you went through HELLO??? It sucks!! )
Shut up and Bounce…. Bounce…. ….
