Me@Nostalgia

I have been feeling really nostalgic for past few weeks…Recently I heard the song ‘PAL’ by KK again….and I have been in the mood of reminiscence ever since…..

The day is almost there when I will be out of college…..end of my education life….and then into the real world…..which I feel scared of at times.

By each passing day I am feeling more and more nostalgic…I have started listening music which evokes such feelings….every action I take I try to relate it to past…..yesterday itself when I was riding my friend’s bicycle….the days when I used to ride my cycle to school, to play TT, to take tuitions…..came to my mind………and in turn thought will I ever get such a chance again…..Another incident that happen yesterday…..really wanted to watch Filmfare awards choreographed by Shiamak…..but couldn’t see because of some unavoidable circumstances……this took me back to the times when I attended SDIPA classes in New Delhi….left it because had to come here…..again the thought that struck me was that will I ever get an opportunity again…….

Many things have happened in recent past….they would have all been just normal things….but as I could related some of them to what I went before ( as I am in the mood of reminiscence)…….these little things became a bit important and consequently reminding me of my past……

Feeling of nostalgia is no big deal and is a common phenomenon that everybody goes through at different stages of life………but for me it has been something more than this….never left so nostalgic ever before in my life……May be its because all the fun is going to come to an end, or may be because so called the golden days of life will soon be gone….and then shortly the time will come when I will have to shoulder responsibilities….another reason could be the friends…….love that my friends have showered on me here is not even funny…..I always had loads of friends….but here its something special…..have become so fond of some friends here ( I hope I am not sounding weird here) that I really can’t imagine the day when we will depart ( I will like to be in touch with all my friends here after I go)….and then how difficult it will become to be in touch and thought of.. ‘Will we ever share the same kind of friendship’ gives me a nerve breaking time……

Lost@YesterDay

Today I am feeling really lost........

Don’t know what my priorities are??
Wondering what is in for me in the future??
Thinking whom to trust or whom not to??
Do I make fool of myself all the time??
Do I deserve anything??
Am I on the right track??
Do others care for your Emotions and vice versa??
Who are unconditional: Friends or Family??
Am I scared??
Can I make it BIG??
What do I want from my life??
Basically where do I stand today??

Design@???

Nature is balanced, every pro has its con, then why can’t design/ form/ shape be symmetrical. Why should designs forcefully, be always asymmetrical…..Just to be different? ? ? ……..me confused! ! !

Superficiality@Everything

Universally, the one thing that prevails …..Is Superficiality! ! !

What ever you see…..where ever go…..what ever one does…..everything seems to be Superficial…..

Who has made this word omnipresent…..who else….we ourselves……..

Today life starts with it…..the newspaper you read in the morning is all about glitz, money, politics, Page 3...what are these???…..form of superficial expressions….

The news channels, the TV shows, sports….. All revolves around this….superficiality is what sells today…and we the people are buying it rapidly……

Sports…which is considered to be the place where everything is real and no makeup…..is also a victim of this…..sportsmen….they play for their countries….but….media, respective sport boards have made it all a part of showbiz ( sportsmen are also influenced) and showbiz again is all about superficiality…..

People are becoming brand conscious, want to buy and wear branded stuff…..what are brands…..again superficial…..adding on extra cost….just for the name sake…. In most of the cases…..( I am also one who runs after brands…what hypocrisy ! ! !… hahaha)

Even when you go to a shop to buy something….the salesman also acts in an artificial manner just to sell stuff….trying to convince his customer that the product is good… (But here the superficiality is a part of trade….baniya hu na…..chale ga…)

Now it’s about relationships….most important than all the above…..today even relations have gone for a toss…. Most of the people are using each other…. (It was there earlier also…but now it’s growing like our GDP, I am sorry if I hurt anybody’s feelings)…. The term that is most appropriate here is Synthetic Engima….meaning putting on things just to impress, accepted by the environment…society …etc…again…..superficiality ….. rite ???

No one is spared I suppose, including me…all of us are the victims of this dreaded word…. And as this thing has become so prominent that…even though people who are honest and straight forward…..we are still suspicious…. And even we could be looked at with doubt……..

Backpack@Mumbai

As my friend calls it…..and she loves such kind of trips and I loved it too…….trips where you move around with your backpacks, belongings and therefore in action all the time….

The destination was Mumbai and we were there for just two days and wanted to have all the fun and explore Mumbai as much as we could in these 2 days……the weekend…

We visited more or less all different kinds of places….be it…..holy place of Haji Ali, be it shopping mall called Atria, Institute@JJ School of Arts and IIT, took a ride in Open Air Bus by Maharastra Tourism, saw the proud old heritage of Mumbai….which includes Gateway of India, University building, VT and Churchgate…..Kala Ghoda, Town Hall and many more……went on a ferryboat, 5 star hotel@Renaissance, also visited the Surf Excel Presents Times of India Kala Ghoda Arts Festival…..it was great fun….visited friends' places and went for a Marathi wedding (senior’s wedding) to complete the whole package…..

We traveled in almost all means of public transport in Mumbai of which local train was great fun (though have traveled in it earlier)….The pushing, the squeezing, the banging …..Was a great experience for all of us……especially for the 1st timers AK and NK……

We traveled right across the city of Mumbai….from thane, mulund to churchgate, VT….It was great to experience so much of Mumbai ……never expected, that we will be able to cover Mumbai to this extent in such a short span of time….the trip was worth million dollars…. hahahhaa…..total Paisa Wasool again…..

This was my 4th trip to Mumbai- The city that never sleeps….and was the best one ever and beats all my previous visits quite convincingly…….hurray…..( but missed few people…wished they were around)……

Fun@Horror

Today evening after almost the whole class was gone; me and my friend were getting really bored and were not able to make up our mind on what to do…..but after loads of brainstorming over a cup of coffee at chirag we decided to have a movie screening in my room….

As the screening was supposed to take place in my room, and girls were invited, I decided to catch hold of my roomy and together we transformed a shabby looking room into a more presentable one…. (Just to impress the girls…hahahaha).

After loads of difficulty and setting with the guard bhaiya we managed to get the girls into the room….where the movie called “Grudge 2” – A Horror Movie was to be screened…..We also arranged for some coke and chips to munch on during the screening…

To create an atmosphere we lighted few agarbattis, arranged for the speakers and turned off the lights ….Adjusted ourselves (four in total) on the bed with foodstuff and all ready to watch a scary horror flick….

The movie started……………………………………………………………………….....

The 1st thing we saw on the screen was some East Asian Language (I think it was Japanese) and what struck us was, “shit subtitles”……………“half the time will go reading them”….We were like “chalo koi baat nahi….hope the film is scary”….

After watching the movie for a while….we all were confused and were really trying hard to concentrate. But it was impossible as the story was completely confusing…."without any sar and paer"…..till this point in the film there had not been any scary moment at all….it was just fun and more fun…..total comedy….hahahahaha….ya with an exception of few good shots….

But we decided to carry on and thought the end would make up for the whole movie….hoping the end to be quite dhaasu…

But………………………….........you know what I mean………this has been one of the most creepy horror movie I have ever watched……really not scary at all…..total filmy, funny, gross, basically ehwwwww…….I know I should not comment in such a way and should respect one’s creation…but can’t help it..………..
