I'm so annoyed with Facebook.com right now. I Loath that website for more reasons than one. It causes nothing, but drama. What good does it? Sure, sometimes i'll get a post or two from someone who just might make my day, but on average, how often does it really upset me than make me smile? Yeah, that's what I thought. So what's the point? Why do we have it? As a means for communication? Or taking those quizzes and having those applications which really don’t matter …  Sure, it's nice to see nice new updated pictures of yourself, and others but again…At what cost?

friend groups

friend groups

• best friends (5) 

• family (1) 

• friends (213) 

• good friends (24) 

• haven't met (6) 

It gets really difficult.. to categorize  people in a set of groups .. most of the time dese days i just don’t care were they are put up…i jus click wats in default. So many people, how to list them all...

The first friend to mention, a great friend, one i don't deserve, i never thought i'd meet someone like you. I truly believe i met you to know that genuine people do exist, the people who know how to care about others...I'll remember you always.

Another to mention...the one who I've known a long time...most of my life...the closest thing to a brother  …that I've ever had......

Must of course also mention the friend who I'd thought would be there for me forever, started out as the best of friends, turns out  to be just rumors…

 Another... a close friend,  someone who is always ready  to help in a big way, the one person who never judges me, not afraid to tell me when I'm being stupid, always seeing through the lie when I say I'm fine This is a true friend.

The final person to mention, he has been a good friend for years, but some small things have come between us slightly. If we are truly as close as I thought, we will not let @##!@$@#$%# come between us.

And as for the rest of you... some have stood by me, others have walked away.... If I can still use the term friend…. thanks !

 

Wish i was your lover

Album: Insomniac 

Enrique Iglesias - Wish i was your lover 

Lyrics 

You know I got this feeling that I just can't hide
I try to tell you how I feel
I try to tell you but I'm me
Words don't come easily
When you get close I share them

I watch you when you smile
I watch you when you cry
And I still don't understand
I can't find the way to tell you

I wish I was your lover
I wish that you were mine
Baby I got this feeling
That I just can't hide

Don't try to run away
There's many things I wanna say
No matter how it ends
Just hold me when I tell you

I wish I was your lover
I wish that you were mine
Baby I got this feeling
That I just can't hide

I wish I was your lover
I wish that you were mine
Baby I got this feeling
That I just can't hide

Oh I need is a miracle
Oh baby all I need is you
All I need is a love you give
Oh baby all I need is you
Baby you

I wish I was your lover
I wish that you were mine
Baby I got this feeling
That I just can't hide

I wish I was your lover ( I wish I was your lover)
I wish that you were mine
Baby I got this feeling
That I just can't hide

I wish I was your lover
I wish that you were mine
Baby I got this feeling
That I just can't hide

Just wanna be your lover
Just wanna be the one
Let me be the lover
Let me be the one

Cricket scales new heights with Everest match

British cricket enthusiasts have taken the game to new heights, playing a match near the base camp of the world's tallest peak, Mount Everest,

Members of the two teams -- named Hillary and Tenzing -- trekked to Gorak Shep, a plateau 5,165 metres above sea level near the Everest base camp, and played a 20-overs game on Tuesday, said Bikram Neupane, chief of Himalayan Rescue Association Nepal which provided medical backup to the team.

In the process, the two teams created world records for the Highest game of cricket ever played and the highest altitude ever recorded for a field sport.The teams were named after New Zealand's Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay Sherpa, who became the first to climb 8,850 metre Mount Everest in May 1953.

More than 3,000 people, among them a 16-year-old boy, a 76-year-old man, a man with artificial limb and a blind person, have climbed Mount Everest since 1953.

How did lalit modi miss out on this one … ?? didn’t he think about the TRP’s ?? or possibly he’s afraid of scaling heights …  how about considering it as the next venue for IPL-3 …

It’s 10:30 on a Sunday morning. I’ve already had three cups of tea and a piece of leftover pizza for breakfast. I’m feeling great seeing that i’ve finally recovered from the hangover i had all of yesterday. A hangover that even resulted in a slight fever. 

Late night drives are the best when you are thinking like you're the only one who will really understand yourself.  It's dangerous when you're understood. You become vulnerable to the point where you lose yourself and forget how to make any decisions.I feel so ignorant, ungrateful, close-minded. when i get in these mind-sets, but i can't lie to myself.   

I just want to hold the steering wheel and pretend i'm in control today. Just for a little while.

and i still need to talk to you... 

 

If you stay up long enough your mind just stops thinking.... this is when you know it's safe to lay your head against a pillow and rest your heavy head... hmmm  I've never felt more alone and misunderstood. All I can do is think and i need to talk to you... 

How are you ??

Google Talk

10:49 pm A) hie wasssup

1o:52 pm B) nm … u ??

10:55 pm A) hmm … nm

 

I have noticed that, the question “How are you?”  huhh more often  wasssup  …. has become just as standard and generic as “Hello” People always give the response of either “k.” > (ok) or “Gd” > Good or “nm” > nothing much ….. Honestly, lately when I ask that question…..I really want to know how you’re doing.

Well for me, I am doing just about ok ... I think I am going to be healthier from now on. Maybe I’ll run a few times a week instead of a few times a month. Maybe I’ll stop eating non-veg for some time. Maybe I’ll cut back on late night munching…..Maybe I’ll just go on a diet….  

 

I was reading some of my previous posts, and I could just tell I was unsettled, edgy, and generally just down…for good reason, I think. I cleaned things up and my mood over the past couple of days have shown the results of that, I love this. I remember being so uptight and worried about everything, I can’t imagine being like that now.  So, I am not going to attempt to fix something that’s not broken, I will just let it be. In a nutshell, I can’t stop smiling!

How are you?…

 

Dravid on top of the 'catching' world

I had a long night which led to a rough morning. Mindset still at a super slow pace....or rather too slow to adapt the fast working pace that it use to be...arrrhhhh totally cannot adjust to it.

today i sat down and attempted to study and nothing will sink in to my brain. I dont quite understand or know what to do with myself. So I'm calling it a day because at this point in the weekend what can I do?

I really miss having a weekend to have a good time instead of spending it wondering about how to study and when to fit things in. It's really quite frustrating if you think about it.  It gets lonely and boring sometimes, but that is just part of me , you can’t be with friends all the time. 

I guess I don’t like that no longer i have a weekend to look fwd to….

Unemployed life

I am such a small part of this world, and it feels like my entire world just came to a grinding halt and headed into a completely different direction

 

I have officially been unemployed for about 3 weeks now.  It is a really strange feeling not having anything to do on a daily basis.  I have been used to the routine the past 3.5 years of working full-time.  It is nice though, I go to bed when I am tired…and the best part is I wake up when my body wants to wake up…not to an alarm, which I despise.  I am not a total bum about it though I rarely will wake up later than 8 am…

There are times where I am depressed, and I think I am allowed to be...times where I get excited over the littlest things... There are times where I feel alone, so I just go on a walk...times where I just have this urge to go somewhere and to get away from reality...  There are times where I am convinced that I will be a bachelor for my entire life......  There are times where I convince myself that, that is ok...   times where I feel I have been wrong all along, and I dont know what to think anymore. There are times where all I want to do is lock myself in my room and have no human contact.There are times where I want a female companion.....times where I dont know what I want.

 

In the end life is…ok…it is my goal to make it better somehow.

 

and sadly the percentage of stories similar to mine continue to grow at a rapid rate across the country.

 

For some reason it is easier to save money when I don’t have a job, maybe I just don’t waste it as much. 

Election show

 

The political situation of India seems awful, the election is getting near like a heavy storm which is going to change and destroy many things, the leftwards and rightwards are fighting with each other like wild dogs, in order to get more chairs in parliament. 

 

I found myself watching a lot of the election coverage, At first I found it interesting, I was engaged, and then as the days went on I found out just how ridiculous politics really is.  Politics, not government, which I think are two different things.  They mislead and lie in their ads, they attack each other on the most pointless things that citizens don’t want to listen to.  Everything they say and do seem to be a political move not a governmental move, to help get them into the hot seat. There seems to be no political agenda of any party, the only agenda is to malign or bring the other party down. Or to form alliances so that the seats count is favorable. But i have not heard one good speech, or debate or heard anything that i have not heard for the last 10 years. There is no leader in India right now that seems to have a vision. Is there a vision for India?

 

Many people don't like to vote, i have heared this sentence more than a thousand times what a timid nation we are changed into! but i don't blame anybody, people are tired , they just try to get the minimum injury, and it's been long time they have forgotten the dream of living in a free just happy country...

 

I am not saying, don’t go vote because your one small vote won’t matter.  I always say, you can’t bitch about the government if you don’t vote… so if you plan on bitching about the government (which the majority of people do) then go vote, for someone.

 

PS : to the politicians, be carefull to what you are saying , the world is watching !! 

Don’t ask me why I know them; I know ALL kinds of people!

Ok, I really wanna ask you this:

See:

Old, close, weird “friends” with serious mentality issues, showing up after it’s been days of disconnection, trying to renew the “friendship” they shared with you once:

 

Would you take them back? Or will you learn the lessons of the past?

 

Remember, they made your life unhappy once, they, manipulated your friendship and stabbed you in the back occasionally, they took advantages of you whenever possible…

 

But again, man, it’s been ages! Now they really "seem" to need you... and you , surprisingly, have no hard feelings whatsoever. But you don’t want to be stupid AGAIN!

 

Maybe ill just give it a try again … friendship is easy when things are good, to go out to eat with, to watch a movie or play a sport with..... But a friend lives up to its definition, not in those times.... but in the times of hardship and trials.

Life has been crazy lately, I have never felt so many different emotions at once, just constantly revolving in and out of my head.

Music Shuffle and Sex

Change or Hurt !

I don’t want life to change me, i really don’t. But if i had to choose between being “changed” and being “hurt”, i will definitely choose change! Not because i wanna change, but because i know exactly how it feels to be hurt. Change cannot possibly be worse. i’m soo not gonna tolerate hurt anymore .. Hell I know I deserve better!

 

*If change means avoiding being hurt, change is most welcome!

 **If change means being way  less sensitive, , my God change is welcome!

 ***If change means being able to not care, plz plz plz  change me!

 

I wanna change .. Feeling hurts.

 

Note: I wanna change in a harmless way. 

Two months back we received a retrenchment notice; it said the company was downsizing to maintain viability. the economic downturn was the reason for the actions. It’s the state of the nation, my friend stands to reason why we slump economically wasted - all of us out here.

 

Many of us had anticipated it, i mean it was very obvious with the kind of stuff happening in theCo. ( [4 mnths ] salary/ rent/ vendor payments outstanding ) Moreover 250 plus were in the bench for two months. i was going thru a mix feeling, being retained as a part of the 15 member core team for the revival process.

 

But  that was two months ago and now congratulate me into the line of unemployment yep, that's right. ..well, this way i get to choose if i get up each morning  lie there or get up and find life is shit, work or no work..

 

im already drifting into a haze , my eyelids feel heavy and threaten to collapse, my shoulders relax from the burden i carried all day and with one final word i fall asleep…

PS :  what all MBA schools don't teach is that your family is the one that comes to your rescue in times of trouble, no matter what. 

We're all adults now ..

So caught up in today, i had forgotten it exists... I know i've made mistakes in my life, but at least i have come to recognize them. i've tried to mend friendships, but in return, i was pissed on. The only reason why i can remind myself of you, i's something i will miss, reminding that once a past has passed ..  it will stay true. I never expect to discover this again. 

I would also like to make it a point to say that just because i don't talk to you doesn't mean i hate you or still hold a grudge. I just know what has happened and using that experience. So no matter how often we talk, you are special to me and you have made a diference in my life. 

I just wanted to say..Settle our differences. We're all adults now....

some things are personal - anonymous

Angry ?  me ?  well, yes, i have been pissed off for a long time.. trying to understand what it is i'm wanting.  why do I do this time and again? why can't I shut up and jus be ur friend? i knw i’ve disappointed.. I know  u’r  in a mess .. but all u  can do is yell at me and all u  know is to shun… what weird sort of pleasure do u  gain ?    

and finally   “ some things are personal ”  Knockout

Okra

i always wondered  why do u complain about cooking….and even worse… all the time reminding me about not knowing  how to cook..

so finally u copy paste this….

300 grams (about 12 oz.) okra cut into small (1/4") pieces
1 cup(s) onion sliced finely
3 tablespoon(s) oil
1 teaspoon(s) each of red chili powder, coriander
powder and cumin powder
½ teaspoon(s) each of turmeric powder and hot spice mix (garam masala) powder
2 green chili(es) slit
a squeeze of lemon and salt to taste

1. Heat oil on medium level in a pan for about 2 minute(s).

2. Add onions, and stir fry on medium level for about 4 minutes or till they are very lightly browned. Add red chili powder, turmeric powder, coriander powder, cumin powder and garam masala. Fry again for a few seconds.

3. Add the okra and the slit green chili(es). Add a dash of lemon and sprinkle salt to taste. Mix well. Cover and cook on low heat for about 5 minutes or till the okra is cooked but firm.

Yes... just what I wanted... the recipe for some good okra eatin. Haha!     I loved this one.

A dark moment in crickets history..

It is always disturbing and heart-breaking when the unthinkable happens.  Masked gunmen opened fire on the SriLankan cricket team's bus in the city of Lahore – Pakistan wounding seven team members..

 

Its time Pakistan took some blame for all this mess. Their govt might not have been a directly involved party in the Mumbai attacks, but the terrorist infrastructure it helped breed was certainly the main protagonist. Now, the terrorists have come back home to roost.

 

This attack is a huge blow to cricket and possibly the beginning of the end of cricket in Pakistan….. Inzis n Akrams of this generation will suffer unfortunately..
