My billboard dreams...


The dark blue night smeared with twinlkling crystals covers the concrete skyline... Its another evening...The traffic stands still amidst giant "buy me now" hoardings---flashy and unreal----- unreachable yet so close----

I'm on my way home... the colorful neons which light up the billboards covers the entire stretch of my journey..They promise you a bright future, new home, discounts, more money, more comfort, glittering lifestyle...Stuck in a traffic it gives you a moment to live your dream...and at the next moment you're again under another billboard... Our life is somewhat similar...Our dreams never really end they keep on changing like the flashy giant sized hoardings... So what next "a dream home in south city, the dream car i10, modular kitchen or venetian floors".... live your dream in true billboard style!

Summer of 69

"Standin' on a mama's porch
You told me it would last forever
Oh the way you held my hand
I knew that it was now or never...."

Its kinda strange the way our feelings are...Even years after you have pushed them in a dark closet, chose to ignore them, pretended as if it never existed ...a quaint forgotten fragrance takes you back where you left them... and when I look back now it still feels the same, its still afresh... and still undefined....but may be its always about moving on...and I have tried moving on...
I dont know whether those were the best days of my life but I'll surely miss being a part of them....
"Oh when I look back now...
That summer seems to last forever...."

Happy New Year People!!!!

"Jaane Kahaan Le Jaayega
Khwabon Ka Hai Yeh Karvan
Jo Chal Sako Tum Bhi Chalo Yaaron
Apni Hi Dhun Mein Main Chala"


I'm listening to this song...Its from roadies...I dont know but theres a strange mushy smell of friendship, adventure, and bonding in this song which makes me reminisce abt old times I have left behind... Well its 2009 and I have left behind an entire big fat 2008 andI'm still carrying the memories in my backpack... So many things happened...I had innumerable fights with my boyfriend, I almost broke up with one of my friends(well we have patched up again...thanks to the year end gossips!), I moved on beyond my silly crushes... I tried to act mature and ended up being dumb...

2008 was kinda strange when it started...I landed up wth this job in my company where I hardly had any clue wat "technical writing" was all about...It seemed close to rocket science...but now well...its a little less than that thanks to all my seniors and friends...

In 2008 I took some time to get adjusted to my new cliched corporate life... But thanks to a few insane ppl around me...life was better...

2008 was also about making new friends... I met people who were younger than me yet quite focussed, matured and dedicated.. they knew really what they wanted from life...they were sincere towards their passion...I was impressed and pissed "why am I not like them"---well that was only for a moment...and at the next moment I was happy being me....

I goofed up a lot last year...well ask ppl around me...theyll surely admit that...Well it goes both for work as well as relationships...Im sorry guys I messed up... bt then hota hay... this "hota hay" word sounds comforting...

And 2008--- Jesus! all my friends got married!! I'm like depressed with my single status now! Wherever I went it was a friend's wedding where I was showered with the only probable question "so when is yours?" ---All I could do was smile and sport that "god knows" kinda grin.....damn it.... not again!

Apart from this I baked a cake for the first time in my life in 2008...that is surely an acheivement people...and I goofed up in that as well(ask my friends!!)..C'mon guys this is just the first time...

I bought my first digicam in 2008... and thats the best part... My room got a new color...I chose baby pink...and hate the girly look now!!!! cant help!!! Now I just call everyone to my room and force them to say" Ya your room really looks nice" ....What a pain and at all the wrong places...

Well I dont remember anything else that happened... The year passed away with me getting paranoid 100,000 times at every goof up, me getting sissy and sniffy at all the trivial but "extremely important for me " kind of issues, me calling up friends 1000 times just for a good dose of gossip...I'm still doin that....

But lets end this with my well prepared list of resoultions...Here comes the famous few:

Getting fat
Getting sane
Learning to Cook( wait till I bake another cake people!!!)
Spend less( no more foot spas , no more metro plaza every month, no more taking cabs, only bus....i cant keep this im sure!)
Clean the mess in my room every week (Are you kidding me!)
Reduce my phonebill (Gossips only.. nothin else...i swear)
No more silly soppy crushes! enough!( by the way my new neighbor is kinda cute)

And I wont bug you wth my boring blog until I think of a more "meaningful crap"---- Till then Happy 2009!!!
