Height of "Loneliness"

Yesterday a Friend/Classmate called me up basically to make sure of my Existence!!During our conversation I got to know many things including that he had seen the latest movie creating a buzz all around i.e. Jaane tu ...Here are the Excerpts of our conversation from that Point onwards....

Me:So, where did you see the movie??

He: In Cinemax, City Centre

Me:Huh!! You came all the way to Vashi?? (The Guy stays in Kurla)

He: umm, Ya I Mean, You know...Umm, well...

Me:ohh well, Ok...With whom did you see the movie??

He: Nobody, I went alone!!

Me:Huh!! What?? Alone?? Dude Cinemax is 5-10 minutes away from my house ...You could have called me!!!

He: ohh well...Umm ...May be.....

I wasn’t sad that the guy hadn’t called me but what perplexed me was that he went for the Movie alone!!How can a person go to a movie alone ....OK,there might be several people doing that but as far as I know they are all grown up adults !!
My Cinema Hall Experience tells me that there can be three kinds of scenarios which can be experienced

1. A Crying Baby or a nagging kid who doesn’t let her mum settle down.....

2. A Group of friends which I identify with chattering, giggling away during one particular scene and

3. My most favorite or non-Favorite Scenario-->A Couple koo-chi-kooing during the entire Movie

Now Imagine Sitting alone in the hall experiencing all the above scenarios alone....How does one handle that....After the movie ends to whom does one say that yes, I liked the movie or I did'nt ....Am I reading too much into this...I mean some of them must have had no Choice but to go alone ....Yeah,But is that an Ideal thing to do ....I don't know people but since I have personally not been to a cinema hall alone, I perhaps don't identify with it, But something like that is according to me "A Height of Loneliness" !!!

The Art of Proposing

Me:->You know,I have been wanting to tell you this for quite sometime now but don't know how do I put it in words.

Y:->oh,You can tell me,What is it ?

Me:->Guess I have Fallen in Love with you !!!

Y:->Huh !! * looks Left and Right * Are You Serious ??

Me:->I don't know ...I guess so ....Do you .........


It is 9.30 already....When did you Sleep last Night,You lazy A**....Damn,Such a beautiful Dream got "chakna chur "in seconds.I could'nt see her as the Girl in Question's Back was facing the wall i.e my eyes,but she I could see had oily long hair.I did not want to get up in that lazy morning almost wanting myself to revisit that broken Dream ...Would I ever be able to Propose like that?..or was it just a silly random stupid dream or will it be something like what happened Last September


September 05,2007 :->It was teacher's day but it turned out to be some sought of a Valentine's Day in College.We did Celebrate Teachers day but most of them stayed back in the class for I guess what can be called as a "post event get-together" What Followed was kinda Silly and Juvenile(According to me) but something unique and different from our regular monotonous boring Class Lectures.


All of them had to recall their first crush that they had and with whom and what happened there after and those honorary members who had Girl-Friends had to tell in front of the Class of how they proposed i.e do that thingy Again...Ok I knew this ai'nt going to work coz most of them in our class were well "Shanti ke Smarak"..I knew they were'nt going to speak and even if they had Gf's they ai'nt going to do that thingy .....You would'nt expect this from "I-want-to-be Engineer" fellas !!!And I was'nt Wrong ...well Almost :P


And so it started...Girls were girls as they made sure they occupy the first two rows of the class waiting curiously for what the First "contestent" had to say.As expected it got boring initially with nobody wanting to divulge their "gory secrets" But then 2-3 Girls put their hands up and well blabbered...mere boyfriend ne mujhe pehle Sea-face mein propose kiya...usne mujhe Archies ka badaa sa Card diya...*Almost Giggling*...phir usne mujhe phool dekar mc.Donalds mein khana khilaya...*What* :D ..ohh maan ...Am I here to hear all this ....C'mon Discuss your Makeout session..That would make things interesting... A girl went onn saying she has a Fiance and how she and her "fiance" rejected or subjected all those boyzz who came in "their" way...Blahh Blahh ...I was Starting to get a headache and so I decided to walk-out of the Class but those noobs who had organized all this "Crap" i.e The C.R and the L.R of my class pushed me aside...What was even worse ...I was next :(


It was my turn now....We had to actually stand where all the teachers stood while lecturing a class ..So I was in front of the class but thankfully it was a Quarter full by then :P. I stood there about a metre away from the First Row.I could see 28 eyeballs bulging outwards curiously waiting to hear what was I about to say.To nobody's Surprise I disappointed them all by not giving any Meaty kinda lectures that they were wanting to here...Instead made it short and Simple :P

I often wonder whether I could or would really be able to do what I saw in my Dream ....Fact that I have never proposed to any girl before probably makes me more uncomfortable....And worse if I would able to discuss all the Gory details that some of them had the "courage" to do that day ....My Guess is that the former is a possibility but don't think the latter is a Feasible Option :)

A Fourth Mistake ?? :P

In the middle of my P.L(holidays that one gets before the exams) I get a call from my friend asking if I had purchased this particular book and if it were available around my place...There were apparently no Quality book stores in kurla where he lived (Surprising) ...No I don't have it,I said and I don't intend to buy it either...I am in the middle of my Exams dude ...Let's see, may be in june ....I can't wait to get my hands on it,he said ....Well I was glad that I had'nt Purchased it then ....I would have made a "MISTAKE" if I had :P

Ok, I have to confess that I am not a voracious Book Reader but I think Chetan Bhagat's Third Book is Average to say the Least...His Last book One NIght @ a call centre, if you ask me was a very Over-hyped Book ...It did'nt make an Impression at all...Clearly Five Point Someone is the best of them all...In this Book Religion,Riots,Earthquake...All the Ingredients seem to have been packed in,but it does lack in somewhere ...Probably another reason I did'nt like it was because I had read The kite Runner before reading this one which I wanted to read for such a long time ,but could'nt get my hands on it for some odd reason ...even if you see, The Kite Runner also Involves Afganisthan and the Taliban issues but it has a soul in it ...The relationship between the protagonist and the boy has been depicted so beautifully that it overshadows all the other happenings in the book..Sadly the three mistakes does'nt do that

A Special Mention of the Climax of this book : Well it seems A film is gonna be made on Five Point Someone by Raj Kumar Hirani...Well I guess Raj Kumar Hirani must have called Chetan Bhagat when he was approaching the end part of this book ....It comes Straight out of a climax action Sequence of a hindi Movie Flick ...One of the reasons why chetan bhagat has become so popular is because he connects with "Indian" style of reading or writing...And that am not sure is a good thing because then the Next Genaration is only going to read or write like him....The Friend that gave me a call that day is'nt a voracious Book reader like me but he only seems to read Chetan Bhagat which I think is a "BIG MISTAKE" !!!!

Hopefully he comes up with a good fourth book and does'nt make a Third Mistake Third,coz his First was'nt :)

The Return of the Confused Souls

Yes Yes atlast my exams are over *Sigh of relief floats across the face, dies down eventually*..if all things go well I should be in the LAST YEAR of my engineering ....Gee's seems surreal the way these 3 years have just "whooshed" past away like a dash of wind blowing across your face like it does during the time of Spring.Three Years of college,lectures,exams and the dreaded of them all, the RESULTS.....seen that,done that.One more Year of doing the same...I got no choice but to fight it out for another Year.Seniors tell me that this would the most enjoyable Year of them all ...I hope they are Right coz uptill now it has been all, but that...... :(

As I went that day to give my last paper of Computer Graphics I saw a bunch of People who I had'nt seen before hound around the college chit-chatting...Girls doing their usual giggling and boys studing the college from top to bottom as if they had'nt seen such a marvel before...Ohh,it finally dawned on me,cet results had just been out and they might have come window shopping or rather college shopping err..whatever that means...As I entered college I saw a bunch of people looking at some kind of board, a man-made board which I had'nt seen before ...I thought some important notice might have come up so I just made some space in that small crowd to have a look, what I saw made me giggle...it had information of the various branches that our college had and when those branches had started and all other kinds of information...Gee's I can't even distinguish a wannabe F.e from someone else I thought !! I overheard the bunch discussing,hey this branch started just 5 years ago and this did 8 years ago, so it would be better if we join the latter...won't it ??..I coughed and could not control my laugh that time ...In the midst of it all I forgot......I had a paper to give !!!

These confused lot of teenagers can't even decide of what they want to do in life.It makes no sense to say what the guy who made me cough say.I mean are'nt you supposed to know whether you want to go in the field of I.T or Tronics.Hell most of them don't even know whether engg is good for them or not.The poker faced "-just-out-of-school" teenagers ai'nt aware of what they wanna do in their lives.They seem to forget that there is a word called as "Interest" in English Dictionary..Go in that line where your "Interest"lies,in that line where you will be happy and content with your life in future...but it's rather sad that most of them either don't want to or because of peer pressure pursue something else (most of the time it's engg).Teengers today don't have a goal in life ...their goal sadly begins to develop when they are either in the middle of their education or when they graduate..then they begin to drift apart and pursue something else...but why do that...One really should have a vision in life and that should really develop when he/she is 15 rather than 22...There's no hard and fast rule that it should...but things become much easier that way ....don't they !!!

As for me ...Working Class Hero is All I wanted to be and trust me ...that's something to be.... :)

Romance in the Rain

I wanna tell my baby

We are in the month of June

It's gonna be something different

With the arrival of the monsoon

The Rain is finally here

The Way it should be

I am missing you a lot baby

Why really do this to me?

The Weather has turned Pleasant

Winds blowing so cool

I wanna Fall in your arms Baby

Wanna just let go and drool

Wet mud in this rain

smells so very nice

Trees sway all around

And birds make a funny noise

This Rain takes me back

To our days of the past

let's Relive that baby

And hopefully make it last

Ohh,that Thunder and Lightening

And water Falling on our faces

Wanna just Cuddle you again baby

And Relive those past Traces

Rains Are here again folks ...nnjoy !!!!

Graduation,College and Cats :P

It's been two weeks or so since my friends doing their b.sc's,b.m.m's or b.m.s's etc etc (except engineering or architecture or medical)have finished giving their FINAL final exams and after a month or so they will turn into Graduates.So having a chat with one my frnds I told her how content and satisfied she must be feeling now that she would be inducted into the Mumbai University's graduates list and she was like ...what satisfied ....as it is my exams did'nt go well ...I don't know where I'll be or what I'll be doing in the next two months and worst of all I'll be missing COLLEGE !! gee's I thought that's so TRUE .. what was I thinking when I said that ...Probably it was the jeolousy of being in the third year of engineering slogging away and seeing my other frnds getting to wear their convocation attires ....baah they don't even do that anymore :( So what are you doing now I went on to ask ....and she was like ...nothing ..sitting at home ...gorging on some lays and watching IPL matches .........What come again... IPL
matches ....Girls watch IPL :O ....Gee's hearing that I began to wonder what's gonna happen to me in 1 year's time ...I am gonna be in her position and doing the same :( to make it worse there won't be IPL too ...as if I cared...It's getting boring now :P...But Coming back to the Point...that's a sad life to have ...She is right ....Instead of being content ....they have nothing else to do ...GEE's that way a four Year Course is Great ....That day my Friend was saying Our College
is so L.S... :P College is College ...however so it might be ...One must Enjoy it ....Won't get these Year's Back however so it may have been :)

P.S:

I don't know whether this is the trend with your residential society or not ...but in my Society the Cat's are slowly but surely out numbering the dogs ....MEOW'S have out numbered the woof's ... :P Actually it ai'nt Meow it's more of a waaooonn ...Scary Noises at night I tell ya ...

Like the cats Another trend that's slowly getting Rampant is the number of People giving GRE ....GEE'S Every Second Person seems to be on it ....and Why not ...The American System of Education is one of the best if not the best in the world ...but I just Hope People Come Back to India and work on an Indian Dream Rather than Glorify An American one !!!
