Knotted up!

Goodness seems like ages since i last dropped in here ....I swear i have a very valid reason for not showing up here... listen me out guys... well the reason for the absence is that i got myself engaged :D.... ya ya.. to a boy only :) ... a very adorable guy too :) ... hope am excused now :) ....
wondering why i mentioned "ya ya.. to a boy only :)" ....

Well here's the reason...

I call up my friend Fio to tell her i am getting engaged and this how she reacts...

Me: hey fio.. guess what?? am getting engaged :) !!!
Fio: What ??!!?? To Whom ??!!?? To a Boy ???!!???

*Well i never gave any expressions or hints saying i like girls :) .. wonder what crossed her mind :) *

So here's to say am engaged now :) ...

I warn you.. getting engaged is not an easy task....

People here are some tips and tricks for all the those who are planing for an engagement sometime in their future ...

* Have a heavy breakfast in the morning.. cos you have absolutely no idea when you are gonna get lunch and if the lunch will be left by the time you get to it.

* Practice to smile in front of the mirror a week before.. cos you might end looking all grumpy and fake smiled in the photos and video later..

* Also practice the "foot touch" or the "paay lago"... you end up touching at least some thirty feet by the end of the day...

* Never say no to people who offer you a cool drink or juice when you are on the podium.. cos after 5 minutes you may end up realizing that your upper jaw has just gone very dry and can barely smile or talk anymore....

* Please do not frown when all your Mother's friends end up on the podium (especially the boys).... you mite end up with a huge frown in the video....

* Stay away from photographers as much as possible... they can track you down and make you pose funnily for all your single snaps....

* If someone wishes you happy married life at the engagement... Please don reply back saying 'this is only my engagement.. am not married yet'.. can leave the person wondering if there will be a wedding too or not ....

* Do not keep staring at kids eating ice-cream from the podium... its your engagement day and there are more people looking at you then assumed...

* Once you get the chance to eat after the engagement, dont just grab onto your food and never look above the plate.. you might end up looking like a glutton in the videos and photos...


Recommended for the girls eyes only...

* Dont ever let the boy ask you "will you marry me?" with the engagement ring in his hand before the engagement.. Thats cheating.. since he depriving you of a very romantic proposal....

* Also beware of the relatives with too many opnions regarding the saree and makeup..if you let them take over, You might just end up with a lot of jasmine flowers on your head...

* Also for girls who are not used to wearing and managing sarees.. please be careful since you may end up having a wardrobe malfunction on the podium, if your saree is not pinned down properly.( nay now dont sit and think that i had a wardrobe malfunction.. just a warning :) ).



Well if anyone married/unmarried/engaged/to-be-engaged/very-much-single has any tips or tricks to be added, are very much encouraged to leave in a comment :) ....

Innocence of Love!

She sat there on the steps in front of her house, head rested on her legs, gazing at the door of the house across the road. She had seen a tall girl walk into that house earlier. The tall girl had been frequently visiting his house nowadays. He always had a pleasant smile on his face whenever he opened the door for the tall girl. Even his mom seemed to be fond of that girl.

She remembered the first time she had seen him. Her family had newly moved into that street and he with his mom had come to her house to get acquainted. The moment he had seen her, he had stretched his hand out and introduced himself as Keith. She had stood there looking like a frozen sculpture, staring at him, until her mother had reminded her name was Kim. He thought she was a shy girl and had told her so. By then she knew for sure that she was in love with him.

Now she looked at the tall girl walk out of his door. He too was right behind her. Kim couldn stop smiling to herself looking at him. He was such a handsome boy. She had made up her mind that she would ask him to marry her someday. Suddenly Keith was standing very close to the tall girl and whispering in her ear. The tall girl was giggling as she walked out of the gate. Kim felt like crying. So she told herself to be brave and put a smile on her face.

Since the tall girl had already left, Kim decided to put up a brave front and go to Keith's house to tell him about her feelings for him. As she walked across to his house she decided all the things she would tell him. She was praying that the tall girl would never come back here again. She rang the bell and stood there memorizing all the words she would tell him. But when Keith opened the door, she forgot all her memorized lines and stood there just staring at him. She was very nervous now. Looking at her dazed face, he realized something very serious was running in her mind and called her in. She shook her head and told him that she would prefer sitting on the swing in the porch. She sat next to him staring down at the floor, busy fidgeting her fingers.

"So whats running in your mind sweetlin?" he asked her.

He would always tease and call her with such sweet nicknames. That was what had made her confident about his love for her. But now there was that tall girl in his life and he had hardly spoken to her since a week.
She sat there, her mind gone all blank.

"Who is that tall girl Keith?", She asked
"She is my special someone sweetlin" he replied.

Now she was fuming with anger at Keith for calling the tall girl special someone.

"What am i then?" she asked.

"You are my darling!" He replied.
"You know i dont like that tall girl. I love you!" She quietly said tears rolling down her pretty cheeks, staring at the floor unable to look at him.

Keith hugged her tightly and told her,

"My little angel, you are just 9 years old. You are too young to learn anything about love. one fine day you will grow up and learn the real magic surrounding it"
Little did he know that she would always consider him her first love ....


When you are young, Love is innocent,
In your teen, love turns into excitement,
As you grow older, you learn that love becomes a commitment!

Happy Valentines day people! :)

Love All !

Hello people.. how are you all doing?
Hope all of you out there are being good and staying out of trouble :) ..

So its a valentine week .. hoping most of you are having some big plans for Saturday.. this week i dedicate all my posts to love, friendship and a little bit of Mr Muthalik too ( how can we talk about love and not include him now)..

Mr Muthalik and gang have decided that they wont allow any valentine celebration around, and are planing on marrying off any couple spotted on the V-day. Now isn't that good guys, come on.. you are saving lots of money here, otherwise needed for extravagant wedding and more over couples who are struggling to get the big "yes" from their folks need not worry anymore.. Mr Muthalik is making it very easy for you guys :) ... Just get married and blame it on Mr Muthalik...

You all must have heard about The Pink Chaddi Campaign... I am gonna make my contribution to this society too and now i am a proud member of the Consortium of pubgoing, loose and forward women.

You too can join in guys and start donating your old torn ones to Mr Muthalik.. The Pink Chaddi Campaign have now announced that they are not going to discriminate based on color and can donate any color undies.. so i say... its time to clean your wardrobe .... search and dig out for your ole holed ones and start donating guys...

You can get more info over that over here ...

Mr Muthalik now says that “The move of some women to present pink chaddis reflects their mindset" and has decided to give back sarees as return gifts.

Well sir i would like to thank you for thinking about return gifts too and talking about mindset... hmmm lets just get into a little bit of flash back and ask him again "Beating and trashing women in public...What sort of mind set do you think that reflects about your personality now"...

That was enough of love show for Mr Muthalik from me...

Humilating moments at their Best - part 2

Few posts back, i had scrambled down few of my humiliating moments from my life..

That post can be found here ......

Now i have again scrambled some more such moments....

Go ahead guys and enjoy the humilations .....



*Peek-A-Boo*

In class 7th, a boy from my class was staying pretty close to my house.. Most of the evenings, he would come home to discuss homework or exchange notes.. You know that age, any guy who talks to you or the guy you speak to, gets shamelessly teased.. so usually i would be the one targeted to undergo this royal tease from the girls in my neighborhood ... for this reason, i had not given him my home number and i guess he too was a little shy to ask me for it..
On one of his such random visits, i had called him inside the house and we were siting on the sofa and busy discussing some homework... after some time he asked me for a glass of water..
Well by the time i got back from the kitchen with the water, the boy had gotten up from the sofa and was standing next to the small table, busy looking down at our phone on that table ( Does anyone remember that the phone numbers used to be written over the telephones in those old models) ...
The moment he saw me, he blurted out saying "There was a cockroach here, so i was chasing it" ... the poor fella looked a little embarrassed peeping down at the phone... so all i said was "Yeah ..there are too many cockroaches in the house nowadays"...



*Shop-D-Greed-Away*

When you are a kid, birthdays mean only gifts and cakes .... I would wait for my birthday just for the sake of good gifts. Around my eighth year birthday, an aunt of mine had come home to stay with us... and since my birthday was close by, this aunt took me shopping ... she got me a dress and some board games ... i was totally a happppyy kid that day..
Then uncle decides to buy shoes and we ended up at a shoe shop.... Out of blue i remember that my dad too was discussing something about shoe shopping for himself with mom ....
Since aunt had already bought me so many things that day, i assumed she wouldn mind buying few more... And there we already were in a shoe shop too... so were sweetly i asked my aunt "Daddy's birthday is over, but can you buy shoes for him too"

Goodness that did leave her quite speechless ....

And So much for my mom's value education classes about not asking or accepting things from others...



*War-Of-The-Brooms*

Back in high school, we had these gardening classes, where the guys were made to dig a hole and plant tress outside and girls were made to clean the classrooms with brooms weekly... We were given only one hosepipe and so had take turns and share it with the boys.... During one such classes, we both needed the hosepipe at the same time.. so a huge debate took place between us regarding who needs it the most... then this is what happened there...
Representing myself 5'4 as the girls representative i stepped forward...
A boy of 5'2 as the boys representative stepped forward...
-First it all started as an argument between us.
-Soon it lead to loud voices and finger pointing.
-Before i knew, i had a broom in my hand and he had just a single stick of that same broom in his.
And then we both were busy sword fighting ...
Somewhere in the middle of this historical fight, he managed to snatch the broom from me and i ended up with two broom sticks ... We were so engrossed in our battle that we never realized our Hindi teacher had suddenly become the spectator of this great war too..
We realized it only when we heard a voice saying "Aap ladkiyon ke sath yudh karthe hain, aapko sharam nahi attha" (you are waging a war against girls, aren you ashamed) ..
The poor boy got all the yelling ... All i got was "Aap Bhi" (Even you!)...




*Forgery*

I used to hate those gardening classes for many more reasons too. Those classes were totally jinxed where i was concerned ... It was the only class in which i would be held responsible for lot of mischievous acts.. again after few months or so in the same period, myself and three more of my other friends were sitting in the class and gossiping ... Our gossip topics ranged from Tv serials to actors to cute boys in the class and finally to our teachers signatures.. We got so interested with this topic that we even started signing each of their signatures neatly on our desk with a chalk and discussed who's was the easiest of all..
Out of no where we saw our principal walk towards us ( who the hell knew, she would choose that time of the day to take her grand walk around the school )... By the time we recovered from the initial shock of her visit, it was too late to rub all those signatures off the desk...
The end result was that we got a very good lecture about forgery and were made to call our parents too ...

Can anyone blame her.. after all her signature too was there on that desk .....


Yeah guys i know.. i was really a very impossible character back then :) .....

You can tell me your humiliating stories too .. no biggie :) ... ( I solemnly promise to keep it a secret :) )

A Goodbye....

He: I am leaving tonight.... will you meet me when i get back?

* A heavy silence on the other end*

He: Will you be all right?

She: Yeah... I will learn to deal with this in time..

He: I am sorry if i ever hurt you...

*She tried not to reflect on that *

She: Are you feeling fine?

He: Yeah I am, do i have any other choice?


*yes, that reply did hurt badly*


She: Our love was like cancer, you know its all gonna end someday, but until then you keep relishing each moment and fight for it...


He: yes, i understand...

*Did he? Really! Because even she was confused about her bitter feelings*


She hoped he would truly understand what she was feeling at that moment someday....


PS: I tried for a 55 fiction.... well just could not limit my fiction to 55 words.... will try it some other time :) ...
