You know what is my latest topic of thinking…

Anyways. its the fascination with personalities of a person. Not a particular one, but almost everyone that i come in contact with. I mean, i know at work everyone is professional.

🙂 * blah blah blah blah..*

i can talk about thousand things which are good.. and a million which are funny…

i mean, thats one of the things about the campain batch of ours which was used to known as “phoenix” is now known as “monsters”… there is not a single hour spent since the start of this special training that we have not laughed our asses off!!

… and to top it all… we are going back to the unsofistication instead.. the word flying in our session are like… “Chindi chaur”… “lukkha”… “joka-poka”…. [ dont even as me what the third word is used in context of!! 😀

thats all to it right now…
just enjoying my days here…
but i know once this training gets over, its again hectic hell back to us..

so… three cheers to “monsters”!!!!

unsofisticatedly yours,
Ektz.

Lets get on the light side of the life….. 😀

1. She’s crazy enough not to be crazy about silly material expressions of affection. [ well, it gets hard to woe this kind of girl, isn’t it? ]

2. She can be the person with whom you can talk about your normal routines instead of romancing all the time. [ hell! I mean, who wants that??!! Someone who can listen and then be critical of your activities and *the way* you do them. ]

3. She doesnt care what you’re dressed in, or where you’re going together. [ To her , dressing up and going to a ballroom dance OR going to a beach to have a round of booze in ‘whatever’ clothes is same! ]

4. She has very short attention span to most of the things in life. [ unfortunately that means no long duration fights are available… but on the positive side… one will have to be constantly active to keep her interested!!! ]

5. She is the perfect counterpart for the male chauvinistic pricks [MCPs]. [ um… keep guessing how?…. :D]

0300 hours.

Shadows conjuring in my room… but no breathing soul except I.
Intoxicating compositions through the earphones… at its loudest ever.
Me sitting in a corner… with my arms around my pulled up knees.
Eyes closed shut… feeling every sensation that those songs bring.
Painstakingly embracing the anguish… the ache… the retribution…
The vigor… the weakness… all at once.

… Its so remarkable how we can undergo so much through music. Or may be its just me. May be its just about the passion, obsession that music brings out in me. Like last night it did…

I started with
“Woh lamhe.. woh yaadein..” From the movie Zeher…
… Exasperating melancholy.
“Raunde hain.. mujko tera pyaar” From movie Pyaar tune kya kiya…
… Excruciating resentment.
“Frozen” by Madonna…
… Pain at its purest.
“Tera hi karam” from the movie Karam…
… More soreness…
“In the End ” by Linkin park..
…
… Obliteration… Destruction.
…
… In the end… it doesnt even matter……

well, These days i’m too busy with training and commuting myself 60 kms everyday that i’m not getting enough time to write a post and then post it too!!!

well, the other reason could be that, i’ve [once more] blasted my computer motherboard.. and i mean it literary!! The capacitters were ommitting smoke once i was done with the whole ‘trouble shooting’. Anyways i’ll be getting a new motherboard in a day or two, and shall be more active.

but till the time, i’ll be boring the readers of my blog.. with my one liners…[thank you for sticking with it till this long.. i appreciate the patience!!]

oneliner of the day: that was told by my trainer, a very superb lady.

In life, when a person does some good to you, you say THANKS. but when a person does some bad to you, you say THANK YOU VERY MUCH. cause those are the one who changes you for good.

… lets just ponder over the thought… and have a nice evening ahead…

.. well… here it goes….

1.Total number of films I own on dvd/video :

2.The last film I bought:
That has to be “Karam”.

3.The last film I watched:
Just this morning i watched “I am Sam”

Difficult. Cause i’ve got a long list. Anyways let me try and put only five here..

* Matrix Triology [website]

* Notting hill [website]

* Payback [website]

* Bitter Moon [website]

* Karam [website]

5. Tag five people :
Am not that heartless .. 😀 will save the public torture for those five people. [.. and make it a personal one.]

Ahmedabad is safer, less crowdy, and full of people who would turn into a brother if a female cry out saying someone tried to touch her in bad manner.

where as bombay is too full with people, all the time. Not even at nights that i got my favorite loneliness. When we were at a resort nearby Aksa beach in malad, i wanted to just go out and enjoy the sea water wash over my foot at sometime around 10 pm, and none let me do it. there were so many reasons and excuses given to me. I mean, here in Ahd, even at 3 in night i can just sit at the Kankaria lake, and spend the whole night alone, police even wouldnt stop me, let alone anyone else.

As i said about Ahd being too full of helpful people, there in mumbai none care about the other. In some of its own ways, its a good thing. But when i had to break someone’s fingers in local train journey at night when he tried to grab my ass, just for a short while I felt bad. I mean, when it happened, he screamed, and none even cared to notice why. Some of the people also scolded him for making noises. well, he was behind my back, and i didn’t even bother turning to see his face or whatever but i was satisfied braking bones. To think of it now, if i would have been in Ahd, and if i’d have just said “hey, watch your fingers man!”, there will be people who’d beat him up just like that. And thats why this wouldnt have happened in first place. I dont say i need people to do that for me, i mean, i know i can take care of my self. But again its a nice jesture that our gujju people can show.

Oh well, i still say i like mumbai, its a city of realities, wrapped in a dream for which one has to realise, none matters for the other.

… and its so sad!!!
