Yours Truly - One More Time

So. Aarbee is always supposed to be up for surprises. And surprises that she cannot have dreamt of. Ever. This time, she is sleepless. She is not sleepy when she goes to bed, is not sleepy even 2 hours later when the so-called sleep is over. Ha. And this is someone who could sleep within five minutes of hitting the bed and sleep until the end of the world. All those minds that are producing only one word right now, please save it. I think even I know it could be that. But I prefer living in denial this one time. It is so lame - not even as if I'm doing it for the first time!
So what do I do? While I lay in bed trying my best to get some sleep, I create logical puzzles that are beyond any solutions; and later wake up all entangled. (This set was better left not attempted. ) A little illogical, you might say. But no, logic is supposed to be my strongest point. (Whoa! I think my case is worse than what I think it is!) No, man! It's cool. I even have something that my doc calls 'brahmastra' now. Ha. On a more serious note, positiveness is not something that can be easily removed from the system. Sure I am not as positive as I was last year, and that is just fair. I cannot be fretting over that. I'm human. I am still positive. And I am actually doing the Joey dance in my chair right now! What fun!

Oh, did you know that Aarbee's sense of humour is being talked about? (The eyebrows doing that dance now :D) She feels good. And she believes in her god. She also believes in things always happening for the best. A part of my superbly defective (with all defects at their peak right now) body is being taken care of so nicely that I have absolutely no right to crib. The unstable equilibrium that I seemed to have permanently imbibed in my system is getting better. [Dear mom must be happy. :P]

And oh oh, who is burning 200 calories on the treadmill for a week now? It's moi. Heeee....

Ok. Go home now. I have a bath to take, try super-hard to get some sleep, fill up a zillion application forms, do a paper's analysis, geometry questions, and hone my vocabulary. :D

Byeeeeeeee!!!

Me and My Senses

This image is making me philosophical for some reason. It's of a bottle of my favourite perfume, the one I've mentioned several times here - Nike for Woman. Smell is a very small but important part of my life, it seems. There is a smell that I can associate with almost everything around, and all the fragrances I have used till now can instantly remind me of the times when I used to wear them even if I may have forgotten when I used to wear them.
This one's been with me for over two years. I had to force myself to buy a new one to move on in life, and that is quite nice too, but this somehow seems to define me in some sense now. I don't know if my thoughts are going too abstract now, but the freshest scenes in life are directly related to this smell. The near empty bottle is probably suggesting to let go, but this one's too special. I won't be surprised if I dig this bottle out in the market again. I remember, it was almost agony that I went through when I broke the last bottle and then searched for it all over this city for over three months.

And the symmetrical drops... :) ....maybe the steps that I've been taking. Strange. :)
Funny how I'm so attached to a material thing too!

In My Small, Little World

The happiness little things bring is really beyond most things in the world. So I played a little game near my house today. There was a heap of pebbles for some construction work nearby. And I decided to get down and dirty. People stared, but I couldn't believe that I was actually smiling to myself.

This picture could not have come out worse, and I doubt if anybody can even see what I am seeing. But I see me (RB) going uphill and reaching a peak. Was a nice feeling. Is always is... :-)

BLAHing Away

Jayant's going blah and I think I'm on the same path, but considering that I have totally blocked 'life sucks' out, that's not quite what I can or want to blah about.

So what can we blah about instead? Let's see...

The names and faces on the Orkut friend list that I do not interact with AT ALL, and the desire to get rid of them all? Nah...

The phenomenon of nose related leaks? Well, it doesn't leave much to do anything anyway.

A strange song on the radio that is very strangely reminding me of an extremely strange song that I heard a friend singing a couple of years ago - teri rab ne banai pyaari dholki...
It has dirty implications and we shall not blah about it on a blog that now even family reads. :P

Kishore and Lata making a comeback (to just my playlists) and making me extremely happy? Hmm. :) But let's not kill their effect by talking about it.

An interest in Gtalk all over again? Hmm... interesting. :D

A jumpy-dance(y)-crazy mood after reeeaaallly long? It's never meant to be talked about. Come join me if you can. :D

Amazement at the fact that I am not regular to my gym even though I completely love being there? We can talk if you think you can suggest a valid reason for this.

Oh it's all just blah. Just felt like writing something..

The dreaded camera woman at it again

To my friends. Who love to get all annoyed when I fish out the camera from my bag but then end up posing quite readily too.

Till The Light Turns Green

Saw this really funky thing at a small crossing near my house. You press a button and the signal for pedestrians turns green. Now how cool is this! But I am already thinking about the unbelievable misuse it might lead to as well. Also, the chaos if it is fixed at busy intersections - there will always be people wanting to cross the road and therefore, pressing the button and stopping the traffic. I am really curious how this can work efficiently and effectively.

:P

Who still loves Abhishek Bachchan? *me*
Who had said that Kunal Kapoor is hot when Meenaxi had not even released? *me*
Who is totally enjoying every half a mm of inch loss? *me*
Who is in love with the new hairdo? *me*
Who knows how to snap out of boredom? *me*
Who is worried to the core? *me*
Who will still fight? *me*
Who will love forever? *me*
Who cannot tolerate wannabes? *me*
Who can enjoy & appreciate golgappas and faluda kulfi equally? *me*
Who needs new socks? *me* :D

On A Good Day

A non-sensical conversation with T
A work-out session when I don't run out of stamina, or maybe when I run without stamina
An opportunity to slip into my jeans
An evening with M
Another non-sensical conversation, this time with AK
A good rate of accuracy in questions solved/ a high rate of questions solved
30 minutes of FRIENDS
Fun discussions with ST
Good work by my camera


And actually this is it. I will never spend another October like this.

To Live For

'Something to die for' is a common phrase that a lot of us use for things that we feel passionately about. A cause, a desire, a person, whatever. I was thinking, should it not be 'something to live for'? There is nothing in this world that cannot function without you, me, or any one single person. So dying for anything will never lead to anything. Living for something, living for a person, living to earn something makes so much more sense. Don't you think?

Blur

I had always disliked the idea of having a dark background for my blog. It never appealed to me. Made things rather dull for me. So I refrained from using it. Then I read on someone's blog that since people complain a lot about the dark background of his blog, he wrote a post on another host and linked it to his blog. That was so sweet of him, and this is something I realise today. Over time, I have found it impossibly difficult to read blogs with dark templates. And what luck, most of the blogs that I do read are kinda painful for my eyes. Such strain! So I think I want to thank all the people with light templates today. Thank you! Really.
