Shubodaya....

Shubodaya...this is how one of my friend greets me anytime he sees me online. It just feels so good when someone wishes you so pleasantly.
Not just this, but a call, to ask how is one doing, a mail and some small things like this change your impression about that person forever.
But why can't some people just realize such a simple fact. That too when its someone who is very close and you look upto for that call or a pleasant wish, it feels bad. When will people realize to show the care when its needed the most. Further, when you call them to say a hi and they start the conversation with the thing you least wanted to hear, you just want to bang that phone and get the hell out of there. Why do people need to be so selfish, its not like everyone is after their materialistic belongings. Why....

Purple Kisses....

Got hooked to this song since last two years, and still can't get enough of it. I just find it too sexy, something like marijuana to my ears that totally gets me into a different world. Too happy today, listened to the song around ten times continuously.

Sarcastic & funny comments

Some amazing sarcastic/smart comments I have been through in the last few days..
1]A presentation was going on, when a cell starts ringing from one of the person in the audience section. The presenter says "Well, Hey we now have some background music"

2]The auditorium manager in order to encourage people get to the front seats said "Hey people, you guys can sit in the front row, I promise I wont smell bad"

3]During one of my recent orientations with around 1k audience some questions asked...
Well all that graduate courses part is ok, but how can we get free football tickets?
( NCSU provides free football tickets)
Are we going to have fun here ?

4]Some spoofs:
>A Chinese and Indian student go with an American football game:
Indian guy bored of the game says "How stupid a game is this, here the ball is not even round"
>Some truth you may be unaware of. In here Chinese are considered the stingiest and Indians come second in that race. American invites the other two for icecream. The Chinese student says to the Indian " Did you hear last year a student had a toothache, and he had to spend 500$ from his pocket, that too here the insurance does'nt cover dental". And they decide not to have the ice-cream.

If you guys find any such, please drop them in the comments section :)

Birthday Birthday!!!

24th birthday was a great blast. It was one of those whose memories will last for quite a long time. All my cousins had got together and it was too much fun. Memories of old days passed by.

Cousins, aunts, uncles all together had been to a post restaurant Balimo. All these posh Bangalore hotels, had grown boring over the years. I used to see too much of a formality which I hate, that too if the people if am with are the ones who come to the restaurants for the ambiance than to have fun. At some times, I had to think can i laugh now? Should I say this now? But this one was different. It has been some months I guess since I had laughed so much. Well how many times do you see the waiter coming to serve the starters and the plate gets empty before he puts it forward to serve or everyone puts their spoon at once to grab a bite from a small cup of ice-cream or everyone prowling over the plate at once to have the biggest piece. Comments on top of comments....more comments.. and more comments and dialogues..Laughs and laughs and more laughs..It went on...Thank you bro's and sis's to having made my day so memorable.

Clock's ticking bro...

Yeah, it was back in 2001 when my cousin had returned from US. That was the first time when someone close to me had been to the land of dreams. I still recall US-chocolates and pics were the major attention for us to visit my aunt that summer. Aunt had placed all the albums in the showcase, in the hall to splash the success of her son all over the people visiting her.

I keenly gazed through each photograph. Most of the pics included my bro in front of twin towers, him near some huge fountains ,some fancy colorful buildings, him in Madame Tussuad, flowery streets, fruity trees etc etc. It caught all our attention as it was not even a distant distant parallel to what we had in Hubli and Belgaum which were the only cities I had spent my time most in. It was different in the sense: Its so clean and scenic; Even the trees around the roads seems to be trimmed to shape and filled with all the colors; Not just the place but the people around were also so beautiful; Each skyscraper had its own interesting shape; The roads were perfect with plush lawns around them; The climate seemed pleasant in all the seasons; Yeah it was a dreamland, an immaculate land.

Years passed by and US became one of the most banal things with most of my friends been there at least once. And me happily working in Bangalore. I love this city because its so full of life, lot of places to hangout, all my friends are here, the climate is so great and a great work environment. It was just perfect when a new twist in the story, dreamland's back in the picture.

Yeah I am ecstatic, its one hell of a dream come true!!! But will miss this city which gave me so much. And when i will be back the next time it will have changed. As Sheldon from "The Big Bang Theory" says 'Everyone says change is good but it brings new things'.

A nice song. Check it out.

A Watch...

Some amazing songs/videos I came across recently...
Also decrypt the title of the blog..its NOT just meant to mean 'watch' the video...

The Road not taken...by Robert Frost

One of the most popular and best poems that I liked of all times.

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim
Because it was grassy and wanted wear,
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I marked the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way
I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I,
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.
