Kill me if you have to!!

Just finished with what I would like to call an "overdose of mushy crap with no plot at all". That is what is Mills and Boon all about!!
This was my second attempt at painstakingly figuring out what the hype was all about. The first attempt being made in 8th grade when I was bored to the end of my wits after reading the first page and threw the book in the waste-bin, literally. That my cousin promptly fetched it out and cradled it with so much fondness and chided me with "you're-too-young-to-understand" crapp is another story.
And this time I decided I was old enough, actually way too old, to attempt a second go at a catastrophic event like this!!
I want to apologize to someone I told about my engrossment with M&B. "Why are you insulting your own intelligence?", I was warned but didn't heed the warning.
And so, post-reading the P.o.C (Piece of Crapp), I vow never to let these eyes wander upon another one of its likes. If I am spotted with any such P.o.C I should instantly be separated from it. Kill me if you have to but don't let me read it again!!

what would you have done?

If your status read "single" would you hook-up with absolutely anyone coming your way (read 'you are on a holiday and so only for the duration you are there you want a "partner" ') or would you rather wait to start a meaningful relationship?

I won, I won, I won!! :D

okay .. however lame it may sound .. I won the inter-year word building competition at college today!! :D and I am down right excited about it!! :D
yayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!! :D
* jumping up and down with the widest grin you've ever seen *
:D

I can't think of a title! :(

Alright! I am just back from watching Blood Diamond and I MUST say that Mr.Leonardo DiCaprio is a fantastic piece of work!! ;) :D
The first movie of his I've seen on big screen .. apart from maybe umm .. Titanic .. but man .. this dude is something, alright! He's changed so much! Right from titanic to catch me if u can to gangs of new york to blood diamond!! And I am certainly NOT complaining! ;)

But I am wondering about something .. two things actually.
Why do most girls cry while watching movies and why don't most girls like action flicks?

The reason I am pondering over these two questions is that I was flanked on either side with one specimen of both kinds today, at the multiplex . So I am sitting there .. engrossed in the movie for most part .. turning only when this piece of crapp would start kicking my seat in the back.
It was during one such head-turning moment I happened to spot this girl on my right crying away to glory. And I tried to analyze what could have possibly made her cry. And then it occured to me .. it was the sight of Leo nearing his end. He was on phone with Jennifer and I am sure she must have guessed that he was dying. But she never shed a tear .. and yet this girl .. half a world away .. is shedding her "precious drops of pearl" over a character that doesn't even exist!!
Ok .. I am sick already .. so I'll just stop wondering about it this instant.

Another head-turning moment caused me to find the girl sitting on my left trying to cope with the heavy doze of violence being inflicted upon her, courtesy ....... ME!
Had I known she doesn't like violent/action flicks I would have never dragged her for blood diamond. But c'mon .. if a Merc or an Audi isn't blown off to pieces, or bullet shots and firing taking place, or bikes zooming off .. with the riders displaying their stunts .. all within the 1st 15 seconds of the movie .. it seems like the movie isn't really going anywhere.

Now now .. I am not a hater of non-violent/non-action flicks .. its just that I'd prefer an MI:3 or a Tokyo Drift any day to a KANK or Titanic or any movie featuring Aishwarya Rai for that matter.
But I can watch ANY movie (barring all of Aishwarya's) as long as I am watching it on big screen! :D

Okay .. I can't really talk about movies either so I'll just stop writing here!

Don't ask me what I was thinking!

This is the (pls insert appropriate word/phrase) Q. of a lifetime .. MY lifetime atleast ;)

PS: this is the (pls insert appropriate word/phrase) Q. of MY lifetime coz I promise NEVER again 2 come up with such fundoo sawaal  and equally fundoo jawab ;) .. ohh and btw .. this be an original one! :P

Sitting here wasted and wounded .....

After the 4 day trip to the beaches I've been vela/lukkha (idle) for over a week now .. I've been feeling wasted and empty .. and frankly .. today it finally got to me!
Its killing me now .. I never thought I'd say that about being idle! But there .. I've said it!
And I discovered something else today .. just reading one paragraph from Business Today suddenly made me feel sensible and worthy and that I wasn't wasting my life!

I feel I should continue reading it .. atleast read it occasionally to remind myself that I'm not a wasted being!

I'm not feeling so lucky!

Why why why?????
Why do I have to mess up Qs that I can answer articulately 
after a little thinking?????
That too when the interviewer is from Google??!!!

This is how it should be:
you give the test -- you clear the test -- you proceed for a short round of HR interview -- you clear that -- you proceed to the technical round -- and after a long gruelling session of bombardments you screw up
Now that's okay!

and not:
you give the test -- you clear the test -- you proceed for a short round of HR interview -- you screw up a simple Q. like "What brings you here?" with a twisted answer .. something you never intended to say in the first place!!

talk about your interest in web and how crawlers work and how page rank works .. and the fact that why your blogpage is not being crawled even if it has been on the net for quite a few months now .. and maybe you could find an answer to that and deploy some techniques to finally have it figured in the search results!! (even though that would mean going in the direction they're trying to prevent .. but you have to think like a criminal to know the criminal)
 
So even if you're actually not v.happy with the job profile and no career growth in the area you eventually desire and them not disclosing the package and it not being Google Engg. itself and  just completed 2 years of its existence and relocation being a problem for a year or two ("because that's a big concern for us" .. "of course sir!") and no transfers being allowed between Google's SQE operations and Google Engg.
that doesn't mean you can screw up like that!! :(

Well ofcourse I'm not expecting a call anyways .. mostly due to relocation problem .. but you know what .. Google Engg. , they said, is hiring in a big way and we can apply to it .. its a great piece of news .. but I'm still not feeling lucky!

Inane conversations with the nagging voice in my head!

I saw him again today .. and yesterday .. in someone else's face .....
Its been long since he's gone from here and since I last met him or saw him .. what does he look like now?? .. and I thought that after much effort I had finally forgotten him .. but maybe I was wrong ..
And so I'm wondering .. actually I'm more of curious about what he's upto nowadays.
I have the number and even if its changed I can always get it from my resources .. but I'm wondering whether I should call.

will
Oh just why should you??
won't
Atleast let me ask how he's been!
will
Well .. he could've done that too, alright!
won't
Oh ok .. just this time .....
will
Why do YOU always have to be the first one??
won't
He did call last time you know .. on his own ..
will
When was the last time??
won't
couple of months back
will?
6 to be precise!
won't!!
He must be busy with the work load.....
will
SO ARE YOU!!
won't
But this way we'll lose touch forever.....
will
Oh goddammit .. don't tell me you have feelings for him!! :O
won't
Jeez no!
will?
Then why??
won't
Just want to stay in touch! He was like a best friend!
will
Well, he sure has forgotten THAT!!

Hmph! Alright then! Its a won't!!
