I was just reading Carrie by Stephen King and was wondering what superpower would I want if I had a choice? I mean Telekinesis sounds good but I’d rather be a witch like in Bewitched.
I used to love watching Bewitched. I used to think that something could happen if I twitched nose. Something did happen - I felt stupid!
But seriously, wouldn’t it be cool if you could move things just by looking at something or conjure a spoon from the air?
I hate the ride to office. We use all the bumpy roads near HAL airport and as a result I have a horrid and crippling back pain. In order to take the bumps better, today, I decided to lean forward and go to sleep.
See past few days I have noticed that I drool in my sleep. I could never figure why - because I normally drool in my sleep if I have slept without my dinner and these days I sleep with a full and contented stomach.
And then it happened. Ever been in that state of being half awake and half asleep at the same time..like sleeping awake? Yeah I was sleeping like that I suddenly heard myself moan in my sleep. I moan in my sleep!
It was the most shocking thing because it came from deep in my throat, like I was some possessed woman or something. It was this moan of satisfaction (which is what I was feeling then, cos I was jolted from sleep and was just getting back to my comfy position) And in my life I have only *once* talked/spoken in my sleep.
This is a very embarrassing thing because..well *blush* it could have different meanings. And I sometimes have sleepovers at my friends’ houses and this could be very embarrassing and not to mention very scary in a dark room.
When you are working in a corporate world especially in a Mar comm team for an IT co. then you pretty much live by these sayings:
I just realized: In our company we need to used specific images for presentations. These are approved, desaturated and boring. And when I download from the image gallery I save them in folders to remember which image is what (most files are downloaded in zip format) and I have come up with peculiar names which almost sound porn-ish or weird or the ideal states of human beings we’d like.
For example: two girls, Japanese guy, looking up planning guy, thinking man, two men in a corridor, two men shaking hands, two chinese girls laughing.
This might sound immature, but indulge me!
An Out-of-office message:
My Ulcers are acting up and the reason could be a mail like the one you have just sent. Unless you’d like another guilt trip, do not expect any reply.
I watched Aramane today. Quite a good time pass movie. Quite like a paulo coehlo book - the protagonist (Ganesh) is an orphan who is a photographer. He is asked by an old rich guy (Anant Nag) who drinks a lot to promise him that he would take the old man’s family portrait. The photgrapher, Arun, is this sweet guy who does everything to get the family together. In the process he falls in love with the old man’s granddaughter geeta (roma). <spoiler> The old man is okay about him marrying his granddaughter but his granddaughter is in love with another guy. In the end, the old man’s daughter, geeta’s mother hires arun as the wedding photographer. He thus fulfills the promise he made of taking the family portrait.
Nice story. But there was more chemistry between the main duo - Anant Nag - Ganesh than between Ganesh
and Roma. Ganesh, l admit has this charm (and the smile) of a bindaas guy-next-door in whom you can confide. He also has more hair and weight than he should.
Too many songs! It looked like the director was trying too hard to make the audience cry with the sad songs.
And I *think* I spotted Macy Gray somewhere in there.
I liked on line he says though - Ishta pattu madhuve mado adrishta thumba janage sigolla (Not many people are lucky to marry the person they love.)
I am so late. If it weren’t for the stupid mail…ooof I hope the cab guy waits.
She stepped into the elevator, as she tried making a call. Dang I there is no network in this elevator. I hope I hope I don’t miss the cab. She heard someone’s phone ring. ‘you with the sad eyes, don’t be discouraged, oh I realized..this world makes you crazy and you’ve taken all you can bear’ - the ringtone was true colors by Phil Collins.
We’ve come a long long way together,
Through the hard times and the good,
I have to celebrate you baby,
I have to praise you like I should
- Fatboy Slim, Praise you
Today as I was walking back from CCD to office I saw a bus go by and i thought of my past. I was telling my colleague - there was a time when i traveled in a bus like that. And she said - That’s why, today, you are traveling in a Tavera to office.
And I realized..There are so many things I have been through. I used to walk up a kilometer and a half to the bus stand. And today if I am going by a Tavera or a cab to office it’s because I have come this far.
I must have been the only kid in the world to keep a novel over her economics book to prove she wasn’t studying while she actually was!
I have held on and paid my dues. I am a fighter and I have come this far. And I am *not* gonna let some ex who wanted a barbie doll for a gf or some guy who’s frustrated with his life, get to me.
‘cos when it comes to me, honey, there are lines you cannot cross.
This one’s dedicated to the fighter. Truly takes one to know one.
We are such a DIY generation. From sex (oh come on who you kidding, most men pleasure themselves..haven’t heard about women doing it though.) to relationship to life itself.
I mean this is the era of independence, the era of self reliance. Hey did anyone tell you that that kind of ideas lead to Nazism?
But seriously, This is the era when, you love yourself, you have a kid by yourself (I’m talking about single moms), you don’t depend on anybody for any emotional support, etc.
So what’s wrong?
For starters this is becoming a ‘me’ generation. It’s all about satisfying me. Also myself. Absolutely a selfish generation.
It is such a sin to depend or rely on others - ooooh she actually loves him and is depending on him! What is wrong with her even??
Independence is good. Trust me, being a mal girl I know what it means to not have your freedom. But what is asked of me…is paranoia! Also Distrust apart from inhuman expectations.
For once I wanna be weak and trust somebody and love somebody and dream something big and try to achieve it. Bite me!
I added some dumb facebook app which predicted that the kind of guys that I am attracted to are jerks. And that’s so true! Most of the guys I have been out with are such big jerks. They are cute, but jerks.
I always thought I’d be a geek magnet, I ended up a jerk magnet.
Man, no wonder I am so unhappy with my dating history!
Oh god lord I can feel a whine coming on.
Okay so its that time of the year when I feel ugly and fat. There is a logical basis to it - I *am*ugly and fat!!
Ever wondered - if you could have had a say in your making what would you change?
I would have changed so many things. For one I’d make me as thin as reed (Anybody says I am curvy gets kicked by me!). Then I’d add a lot of beauty..not like Giselle Bundchen or Angelina Jolie. They are scary beautiful. But I mean non-threatening feminine beautiful. Then I’d make sure I’d add lot of intelligence. See I am smart but I am not intelligent. Yeah I could faff in my exams but I need real intelligence. The type that writes math/physics theories/theorems.
See all these I can change - Plastic Surgery, except I can’t cos I don’t have the money for it! (well the intelligence part…once the guy sees how you look he doesn’t care about the intelligence - you could be as dumb as a raisin for all he cares)
Anybody willing to finance please write to me!*laughs*
