Parting ways ..

Finally its time to say good bye.. The final moments are always hard .. you may have not really liked the time you have spend together .. probably even wished it would end soon .. but when its time for that final wave , you always have to gulp down a couple of tears..

Looking back at the time we had .. I sure had a lot of fun .. a lot of reasons to celebrate and lot of tears shed ..friends made and enemies won… lessons learnt and experiences undone…

I have loved you.. hated you.. fought with you …and then made up… We knew it wouldn’t last .. always knew we would have to part ..for good … for worse … however .. whatever… it was predestined….

Unlike everyone else who floated away … I am going to remember you… you have given me roses and thorns…. I know when I look back … I will have a smile and smudged mascara …

I have loved it while it lasted … but now its time to move on …
Good bye 2005…

Year-end blues

The year is almost over .. no it just doesnt seem to be getting over.. its like a tail ender being a pain in the neck by sticking around on the last day of the match .. its going to end but .. well .. its crawling..

Moreover the holiday spirit is contagious even if its thousands of miles away... or probably its because you just cant bear the thought of others having vacations while you wait around doing almost nothing .. as I said thigns are crawling...

Oh no .. no new year resolutions ... last year I had decided to be a little less like santa...
I did keep it ..only it was a one step forward two backward kind of stuation...

oh yes.. I do feel guilty about breaking the tradition of making one.. but well .. I think I will let it be this year. ..

Hmm waiting ... for 31st... proabably just for something new even if its only the last 2 digits of they r .. :)

Ink wasted....

Ink wasted becoz it serves no other purpose other than driving away blues or boredom. In this case it is both . I want srikhand..

This was yesterday's post .. I should have deleted it .. somehow didnt want to ..

Its me Santa..

With 3 days to go for Christmas excitment is soaring.. and I get a chance to be a santa too .. :)No.. its not that I am becoming horizontally challenged ... (although that could definitely help be qualify atleast by next yr )... nor have I grown a long white bush on my chin... (shampoo would soon be a luxury says neenadamus) ..

.Its just that the Chrisma Chrischild thingy we had in school has made a comeback in the form of a game .. Secret Santa.. The rules are the same..The ODC sure looks like its just walked out of a beauty parlour.. baloons and stars and what not.. Ok ok mea culpa .. I did burst a few baloons in the vicinity .. *devilish grin*.. and ofcourse santa sometimes sends orders ..and no reindeers required... Internal couriers suffice ..:) The orders are interesting... Take a stroll riding an imaginary bike... talk to strangers in greek.. whack the first person in sight.. ok.. exageration ..


Mine is a little more mature .. Thank Good ness .. only sends me mails from a secret id.. What if I was asked to take a stroll with a santa's cap.. No way I am letting anyone laugh at me. .:)
And I am being a nice one .. only tiny gifts...everyday... Thats all going to change... I feel really evil hehe ... Now would someone give me a pen,...

Beauty and the Beast

Yes!!! Finally watched King Kong.. :) and a yes there is fun in actually sneaking out of office early to go for a movie.. :)

I am sure Boss has different ideas ... oh well.. now I cant make every one happy ..can i ?.. :)
Ok back to the movie...its been a while since I watched a big gorrilla or a big snake or any other crawly creepy creatures on the screen... begins with guys getting chewed up by cute looking dinos..... its a long wait before the big guy actually appears.in the meanwhile its these cuties that entertain u .. I am counting the different types of things that has feasted on men in this movie... I think 8....

I have a thing for eyes .. and this guy's eyes are haunting ... *sniff* ... yes I was talking abt the the big guy's eyes... and a whack for anyone who dares to laugh.. :)... I have a vague memory of the old king kong. .. I think It was in black n white era... not sure.. but this movie is fun.. a very long one for an english movie and a lot of blood and gore .. but its touching..Always liked mush .. :)

ok I can see Max cc 8 flashing... *sigh*...

Of Twain n error messages

Lost in America .. in the late 1800s..... I see Tom and Becky sitting by each other sharing an apple...i cant hear what they are saying... they look so happy.. I smile and . I move down to the river bank.. Huck is pondering about life .. his pipe dangling from his lips... He doesnt notice me ,..he is lost in his thoughts .. I look at the river the way he does ..... I look longingly at the island wondering if James would have considered it right to go there by himself.. I can hear the church bells ring .. cant wait for sunday school.... Everyone is so happy.. peaceful... Listening to Tu Jahan... Twain must bee amused by my choice ..I am wandering back to error messages... *sigh*..

Emily Rose - Ek Ajnabee...

Monday and I am waiting to talk about movies.. This time its Ek Ajnabee and The Exorcism of Emily Rose.

Ek Ajnabee is slick .. could call it different too .. considering its a hindi flick. Its about a bodygaurd and a kid he is supposed to protect from the evil kidnappers.. As usual the nice guy bodygaurd has a traumatic past ... Vietnam.. err .. kashmir ... Inspite of this best attempts .. the kid does get kidnapped... Its a story of his revenge... with some interesting twists and turns and hyperboles ofcourse... And the positive of this movie is the kid... from acting cute to snorty "u r my driver .. now get in and drive" ..AB ...we have come to expect "great performances" from him... He looks the body gaurd part ... would have been perfect with a flatter tummy :)...Arjun rampal somehow looks too polished to play the tattooed ..rogue with a perpetual halo round his head ( its cigarette smoke .dummy) ... Well .its not disappointing....


Now Exorcism of Emily Rose... It goes on expected lines .. with a possessed girl (Why is it always a female ?.. Does the spirits have some sort of antipathy towards men.. hehe.. i wont be surprised though .. ) .. and a catholic father's attempt to cure her .. I am not going to say anything abt the story ... would only say the final slide saying its a real story would make people dismiss it as a silly yarn... Except for that ... a good movie ...

What a waste...

Was reading an article about the dismissal of the first woman flying officer Anjali Gupta..The charges were finacial irregularities , not reporting for duty and physical training and .. take a deep breath .. of throwing a breakfast parcel of an officer in the cook house! Assuming financial irregularities refer to the swindling of pots full of money (a' la scams) i dug deeper to know just how much money was involved ... Rs 1080! to top it all there were other controversial counter charges made from the officer. I wouldnt go into a Holmes mode to check the veracity of these chanrges and counter charges. Thats not my intention... All I feel is sadness...A person whose name is already intio the history books should have such an ignonimous exit ... that too for something so petty.. Rs 1080 . Although it can be argued that its not the amount but the act that demanded punishment... It can also be said that there could be hidden stories behind this one... However the fact now is, this officer has ben court martialed.. dismissed from service in disgrace... There has been others who has suffered similar fate ... and many who may .. but Anjali gupta.. Woman Officer I ... has been grounded ... This time forever ..What a waste...

Last day

Now this is something everyone hates right? Ok, before I start, the reason for this blog... a friend was moving out of my horizon.. now we move on ...
Have we not had enuf of this one in our short lives (????). Last day at school, Last day at college , last day at a place, last day daya s a maiden, last day before a friend leaves, last day in project , last day in the company ...the list goes on..yes the last few have been a little depressing .But then can we really help it ? But this rationalizing does not stop the tear from spilling on to the cheek. Its that circle of moving on from one last day to another ... till the last day of ur stay on earth ... cant it stop ... cant i have no more last days ?
