friends, dreams, twilight n stuff

last week been totally busy... ma roomie frm pune had come down. so been roaming around for like a week. day one was north goa-- panjim, anjuna.. etc.began with dona paula, then kala academy, panjim church, lunch at aunty maria, my first visit to the flea market. shopped like an idiot, then went to aguada.. click click.
day two went kart racing, then colva, jet ski, then ccd, coffee n craziness...
day 3 was in coll, n then old goa n monte,
day 4 --jus in n ard vasco-- japanese garden, three kings. all awesome times. was like being back in pune! all crazy shit talk, swinging, bitching, laughing, more like rolling on floor. sittin up late nights (nt smtin new). twas funn... got lots of time on the wheel. driving is addictive. u want more n more of it!

day b4 morning, she went back,dropped her to panjim. the bridge was closed, so had to go all the way via ponda! :P

rest of the day was spent wit friends! caught up wit a friend after some 5 long years. end of day we were on river bank... pebbling the water. Aguada side , its like my new favorite place. we started talking of life till now. sitting on the edge, contemplating how far we 've come from our high school claims! i remember distinctly wanting to be a doc all through my school life, engineering was like a blind twist. well but then thats it now... and its somehow pointless thinking about all the old stuff. sometimes life is too short to do all the things u want to do. the choice between right and wrong is half as tough as the choice between two right n two wrong things.

life is a random process f(X), and its impossible to predict it.. Long time back i d written a post about making choices, n then sticking to them. in life there's no turn around, the only direction u can move is infront, there's no turning back! time is memoryless. an unspoken word is lost forever, so are uncommitted acts, abandoned dreams.

there's nothing like dream come true-- only visions become real, dreams are meant to be broken.

The Damsel in Distress Syndrome

Many years ago, a male friend quoted, “a girl/woman in a relationship is somehow more attractive to other guys”.  I didn’t really give a thought to it then, it could have been well merely his opinion. But what with guys liking girls who are already with someone else (and vice versa) I thought it wasn’t as simple as that. At a broader, abstract level, we as social creatures, seek conformity in our actions, a kind of acceptance. We are more willing to conform to something that has been already accepted. More than often we conform to social codes, rules, without questioning them because they already have some acceptance for them. We tend to believe that anything that has been accepted should be worth accepting. The other way of looking at it, and this one’s a personal favourite, is the Damsel-in-Distress Syndrome. Okay, there’s no such syndrome really, and I came up with the name, but it fits. So a couple of years ago, I had this friend who thought a girl was driving him nut...

smoke off yer life

Its been some time since my last post…..but I was preoccupied with other matters… Back to ma writin What is the difference between addiction n habit…if any!! The first thing that I turned to for an answer was a dictionary! In the GREAT DICTIONARY (no adjective, the dictionary I refer is itself called the GREAT DICTIONARY…nt oxford, m a bit unorthodox) i found this: ADDICTED is defined as being physically dependant on a certain thing, or, being devoted to a particular interest or activity HABIT was defined as a settled or regular tendency or practice!! This may sound drab, n my reader may wonder what I am heading to, but I have a point to make, n I hope you bear up wid me The definitions above are not complete, what about mental dependence? I come to the crux of the matter now!! SMOKING: is it an addiction or a habit? its not supposed to make u mentally dependent...but then ppl do behave lyk they r aft some tym...lyk i need a cig to think, to relieve ma tension!!...

a story

Once upon a time, th ere was a bird . He was adorned w it h tw o perfect wings and with glossy, colorful, marvelous feathers. In short, he was a c reature made to fly about freely in the sky, bringing joy to everyone who saw him. One day, a woman saw this bird and fell in love with him. She watched his flight, her mouth wide in amazement, her heart pounding, her eyes shining with excitement. She invited the bird to fly with her, ant the two traveled across the sky in perfect harmony. She admir ed and venerated and celebra ted that bird. But then she thought: he might want to visit far-off mountains! And she was afraid, afraid that she would never feel the same way about any other bird. And she felt envy, envy for the bird’s ability to fly. And she felt alone. And she thought: I’m going to set a trap, the next time the bird appears, he will never leave again.’ The bird, who was in love, returned the following day, fell into the trap and was put in cage. She ...
