Disturbia
Bad news yet again, another friend got fired ! I now finally have an answer to one of my most delirious questions which has been unanswered for what seemed to be an eternity to me.
Q : what am I now ??
A : A mere resource !!
Resource : available source of wealth; a new or reserve supply that can be drawn upon when needed
I think they should append the following words @ the end to make the definition more versatile :
and thrown out when not
ps : I wish this wasn't true.

The Idiot box
I was totally freaked out by what was going around as evident in my earlier post so I switched off the TV and started watching videos on youtube. I was slapped into reality by a sudden rattling noise which had originated from the TV. My parents and my brother were there looking at something and smiling. This is what I found out upon investigation :
How interesting ! That guy looked to be more of a Mogambo than an astrologer (no offence intended ) with all those golden straps and dangling chains. ppl were supposed to call on the mentioned number and seek advice on how to strengthen their relationship(s). I wasn't much surprised until a lady called and actually received a beauty tip hidden flawlessly behind some lame reason ! ( I couldn't capture that frame in time )She was asked to make a paste of powered sandal wood in rose water and apply it twice a day.
I guess some people are pretty naive and lack the much required expertise. Whatever the reason may be, these people really proved that TV indeed is an idiot box which now a days is simply a waste of time ( exclusive of good movies ).

Enigma
Red and shades of red are definitely the colour of the season. Weather it be the red roses or pink slips both these things were seen floating around, as expected, in ample abundance.
Apart frm the colours a lot has been going around lately. Global financial meltdown, recession , terrorism , India's Interim budget, India-Srilanka 20-20 game are a few to mention. My chain of thoughts made me recall the infamous Manglore pub case which in turn reminded me of something. As it was 14th Feb and in accordance with my expectations all that was on news channels were 10-15 seconds long footages of one or more couples being cornered by some orthodox political lunatics and inhumanly humiliated. I mean its freaking absolute blasphemy !!
I do agree that immoral acts should be prevented and our culture be protected and preserved but why do that in such a fashion. Promoting our culture and bringing in other relevant changes could be a much easier road to travel. This perspective is utterly disregarded considering that the western culture is the one debauching the Indian youth.
During the budget Mr. Pranab Mukherjee, the foreign minister, correctly quoted "Terrorism emanating from Pakistan is a direct train to India". Ok, Mr. Mukherjee will take care of Pakistani terrorists ( lol )but who is to take care of this temporal insanity which occurs every February the 14th within the country ?? I guess this enigma will remain unsolved for centuries to come.
As a person working in IT I already have a millions things to worry about and these self proclaimed moral cleaners give me one more !

You dont wanna be where theres one of these :
Devil in a red dress
Pune
Koregaon Park23:30 Hrs
Date : Irrelevant
In the corner of my eye I noticed two hazy figures, females ofcourse, walking down the road. The very same moment my head turned, and I found my eyes riveted on the most charming, graceful and amazing face I had ever eyed. She was just too damn beautiful to care abt anything else. The traffic seemed to stop with ever step of hers. She was wearing a knee length red frock and black stilletos. The straps of those sandles clung to her long slender legs as a snake wraps itself around a sandal wood tree. She was beyond comparision.
When she passed by me she threw a glance down the road she had strolled and then with two fingers took a curl of her hair and neatly put it behind her ear. What overhelmed me in that instant was the admiration for the beauty, perfection and carelessness with which she executed the useless act. Well then she got in her car and drove away. Thats the usual end of most of my encounters with beautiful ladies. I wish this one would have lasted for all eternity, but nevermind I've got something to do now : I've got to move to KP !
ps: I did not exaggerate abt her beauty !
Reclaim your life !
Just reached Indore, ate until I was more than full and as usual switched on the TV and found a TATA Safari Dicor commercial being aired. It started something like this :
When you look back on your life, what would you remember ?
When you look back on your life, what would you remember ?
-- The corner office ?
-- The corporate Powerplays ?
-- The VIP lounge ?
What would you remember ?
TATA Safari Dicor -- Reclaim Your life.
When I asked the same questions to myself, to my utter surprize I was left dumbfounded like a starled animal, like a donkey to be precise. When I reflected back on my life I found a million incidents and occurences worth remembering but the forseeable future looks unpromising. A friend of mine always keeps joking "Tu apne baccho ko kya batayega ki tune life main kya kiya ??" She might find it a joke but this question does makes me restless (not the kids part but the life part of it )but I dont think I can help it much. I'm stuck here and I'll have todo something, like kinda reclaim my stuff...
