Life changing incident

It was the day after diwali. And all the whole family was gathered to have lunch together. It was such a fun time, the whole family enjoying together in the festive season.. However the joy was short lived. In the evening I had a acute pain in my stomach. When it persisted the next day, and became more acute, I went to the doctor, only to find that I had a cyst in my stomach...oh laa..from where did this come??? I am a healthy girl.. and what is this that I am hearing. A cyst in my body, and it grew quite large, and I never knew it.... Surprise, surprise..

The next week was filled with visits to all the possible doctors. Consulting all the doctors of actually what this thing is, it was unheard in my family and friends. and happening to me, u wouldnt have imagined something like this happening at such a young age. This things are for the old ages. I was asking all the doctors, am I not too young for this?? Well, i found..it can happen. Finally after visting the all the possible doctors in a week, the place was decided and on a fine morning, the cyst was removed from my body and thankfully its not cancerous. Still have to take precautions so that it doesnt happen again..

U know, I never had a single injection taken, and now my body is punctured with numerous injections. Every possible test has been done on me. Visited so many doctors, spent couple of days in the hospital. And saw so many diseased people in such a small span of time..and all this happening all of a sudden and to ME !!!!All this makes you wanna see your life in a different way, not in a dramatic life changing way, but surely in a different perspective..

T-20 world winning Secret

Twenty-20 - World Cup Final Post match presentation interview between
Shastri and winning caption Dhoni

In the post-match presentation, Ravi Shastri to Dhoni "Congratulations
to you and the whole Indian team for winning this world cup. You guys
have produced a great nail baiting show.. and deserves the cup. We
welcome you to share the joy with us."

Dhoni "Thanks Ravi, the match was pretty close encounter between two
great teams and our guys held the nerve to win the game and cup."

Shastri, "Who was the main reason for this thrilling victory?"

Dhoni, "All us played well but I would say the main reason and man
behind this great victory is Ajit Agarkar"

Shocked Shastri..., "Agarkar ? ? .. how come Agarkar... he didn't play
in the final"..

Dhoni, "Yeaph.. that's the reason we won this low scoring match.. if
he
could have bowled in final, Pakistanwould have scored the winning runs
from his 4 overs...."

Shastri, "ok.. fine, To whom you want to thank for winning this
final..."

Dhoni, "The team doctor deserves the credit... he really helped us to
prepare for the final..."

Shastri, "Is it? ?.... how the doctor helped to prepare for the
final...
he is not the coach or physical trainer...Dhoni.. I am getting confused"


Dhoni, "Ravi... nothing to confuse... he has failed Sehwag in the
fitness test according to our game plan and we managed to pick a good
playing team.. thus we weigh the doctor's contribution as very high...
infact its better than our team effort in the field.. our game tactic
worked well"

Shastri, "To whom you want to dedicate this World Cup?"

Dhoni, "The entire team including myself wants to dedicate this cup to
Sachin, Dravid and Ganguly..."

Shastri, "I really really appreciate you... its good that you have so
much respect to the seniors....and you ...." Dhoni interrupts....
"Ravi.. let me complete... Indiawould have exited in the Group matches
if they decided to play in the series... thank God they opted out and
we
managed to play cricket and won the cup.."

Shastri, "The match was thrilling encounter and was concluded by a
single mistake of misbah.. Isn't it? "

Dhoni, "Yes you are right, after lofting the ball Misbah told me that
he
has send the ball to where there was no one....but he didn't know that
there is a malayali in every corner of the world.... This single
mistake
has cost the game and won the cup..."

Shastri faints and Dhoni receives the CUP and thats the end of the
great
Twenty-20 world cup...

Why Do I?



Why do I smile at the sound of your voice?
Why do I let you take over me as if I had no choice?
Why do I like to have you around so much?

Why do I put my heart in your hands?
Why do I answer to your every demand?

Why do I tell you leaving me is not your wrong?
Why do I let you know with out you I'm not quite as strong?
Why do I feel like I should please you by not putting up a fight?

Why do I care about you even though you hurt me?
Why do I try to hide from what is true?

Airtel Sucks !!!



Sadly, I have a dial up connection on my laptop. Have been trying to have a broadband connection for a while, but well.. BSNL doesnt like me much, so its a loong waiting for me. And lately, I have been harassed by my dialup connection, always faulty connection. So when a student of mine suggested me that I can use my Airtel card to access internet, which is speedier and most importantly free, I readily agreed..

So..I called up airtel customer care. Firstly, its such a cumbersome routine to speak to their customore care, have to pass three levels before we can even talk to the people. Anyways, activating the GPRS was a piece of cake, I didnt had to do anything other then send a stupid message which cost me 3 rs. After that I received a message to again call up Customer care(not again...) and get my handset settings.. Now here is where the whole story begins.. I called almost a dozen times, redirected endlessly to get my settings. And on the way I found some very good English speaking dudes. Let me cite him..

Me : I have activated GPRS on my cell and now I need the handset settings for my cell phone.

CC : !@#@$#$#%%#$@#@# (some vague words)
Me : Pardon.
CC : !@#@$#$#%%#$@#@# (some more vague words)
Me : Can you please repeat what I need to do..
CC : You have reached the wrong customer care. You need to call 121433. Call 121, after 5 sec, 4 press, more 5 sec, 3 press and more 5 sec 3 press.

I then knew that he was telling me to call 121, and then go in the submenus by pressing 433. Funny isnt it!! Anyways..during my relentless calling, I twice received a message that your settings have been received..The customer care executive told me that when you will receive your handset settings, you will be asked to save, view or discard it. So I was happy with that, I can view the settings, see where they are to be stored and then replace those settings with the settings that my student gave me.. So here I was, received the message twice that settings have been delivered, And I had no idea what was happening. Tired and frustrated, I tried accessing the net with the settings that my student gave me..and what do I found..Yes...finally I can access internet on my cell...

Was not in such a good mood after i found out that my 15 rs were deducted, which btw was the legal charge...well looks like there is no thing as free in this world..


In this whole process, what really bugged me was the customer care of airtel..They really need to improve this.. God knows how did they become the foremost mobile operator in India!!!!!

A broken heart..


You always see in those Oprah shows (which i so love) how people are troubled with their past relationship, difficulty in moving on and all such problems in a relationship.. I used to listen to such talks and wonder why would people be so depressed about it, what is the big deal in moving on with your life..The person you used to love is now gone...accept it and just move on. But well, i was so very novice at that time, never experienced what love was like..

But as time goes by, you get to know everything that you have questioned. How it feels like when your heart breaks into pieces, when all that your mind can do is think what went wrong, when all that your eyes can do is cry, when all you wish for is that person to come back and hold u once again..It is such a worthless feeling, you just loose all your confidence in your self, whether you are a big famous person or a commoner, you start feeling unworthy, you start questioning yourself..am i not good enough?? whats wrong in me, whats lacking so that the person had to leave me.. And what about those promises, those life long commitments, didnt he think once before doing all this.. where did everything went wrong...

And as someone just like me said very truly...

Why gloom smothers me
When its happiness that I seek.
I look up to someone for strength
I end up getting more weak.

Why dreams that once delighted
Leaves me browbeaten and torn
I hear the devil laughing and saying
Its never gonna be true, you moron!

Why it seems easier to scream
When it takes an effort to smile.
Someone please study my past and tell,
Was I always this fragile?


Well..i may also like to ask something more...can somebody please tell, till when will this feeling last??

Liar Liar

Wikipedia defines lie as “an untruthful statement made to someone else with the intention to deceive.” To lie is to say something one believes to be false with the intention that it be taken for the truth by someone else. Small, harmless white lies we all usually have to tell. But I am amazed how much a person can lie, can he/she fake his entire life, looking into your eyes, bluntly, and you don’t see even a slightest shame in their eyes. A slightest doubt that they might be lying..

I have a travel companion. Usually, a lot of sharing is done when you travel together regulary. So when she started to tell me about her life, I thought, yaar she has a very good life, masters in engg., a good husband (with a VERY high pay), two beautiful children, her own well paid job..her life was a like a dream many dream about. Just one glitch, she had to live away from her husband, but they frequently visited one another. So it was a picture perfect story. And looking at her, and the way she used to tell all these things in your eyes with utmost confidence, that you wouldn’t even think that she is lying. But as time went by her stories became very exaggerated. Then you start doubting, is this all true. Can this fairy tale be really real?? And then I found from her friend, that she actually isn’t married only!!!

I haven’t confronted about this to her. But as of now I m not really taking into consideration of whats true and what false. If she wants to live in a life of fantasy, I cant deny her that. But what amazes me is, this lying thing. If I say a lie, people will immediately catch me. I agree, I m not that good liar. But for faking your entire life, you need to have a dam good confidence. For me, the guilt of lying is a question, my conscience would not allow me to fake my life, and that also for no good reason. God only know, why do people do such things..

Believe In Love


Say, you are in a serious relationship for a while, a year or two. You really love the opposite person, and things are going on great, but then there are fights also, ugly fights. You can’t leave him, cause he is the love of your life and you know that he is the one for you, but you can’t stay as well. Well..if you are an impulsive person like me, then you might have once thought that it might have been better that you two didn’t meet in the first place, that the things haven’t started, you just want to disappear from their life. or just erase them from your memory as a young lady named Clamentine thought of doing.

But will this work??? Just imagine forgetting every wonderful moment you had together with the person you love the most, forget the smallest jokes you cracked together, the tears you cried, the fights you fought that made you even more closer, the long talks you had.. Forgetting the life you shared. Thinking just from the selfish aspect, you are forgetting half of who you are. And I am just not beginning to tell you what void and emptiness you would cause in the opposite person’s life.

That is the essence of the movie, Eternal Sunshine of a Spotless Mind. A movie I would recommend to every person who believes in true love.

Relationships

Being in a relationship...

Its so hard to maintain one on some days, and its like a necessity of your life without which you cant live without. If that person goes away for even a day, it feels like a lifetime, without hearing or meeting them, your day just doesnt seem to end. What is just so intriguing about it is that you had lived without them for your last 20 years or so, but now suddenly they become so important that nothing else seems to matter.

I love watching and learning from the 'Oprah Show', and I remember that once in a show on the same subject, the relationship expert lady said to a troubled woman, that there will be no one telling you like Tom Cruise said to Reene Zelleweger in a very emotional and romantic scene in the movie Jerry Maguire, 'You complete Me', It may be true, but when you are in love, Yes..you are incomplete without them. And with their presence only you feel a sense of completion.


How torn you feel when you have a bad fight..or how low you feel when you havent met your loved one in days..how you miss them when they are away.. how much you long to see them for just a moment..and how just a single smile of theirs will take every pain away, make everything right, things start to look possible..

This is magic or some say power, incredible power
