the more i think.............

i hav a weird habit of thinking too much. well, ok...a lot of ppl think, but my problem is that i ONLY think n then never actually end up doing anything! i think i'll join a class, n then i dont...i think i'll read a book, n i dont....i think i'll bake a cake, n i dont. n this also happens with blogging...wenever i'm doing something fun/interesting, the whole time i keep composing as blog post in my mind. i always think i will go home n write abt it...n thats exactly wat i dont do. if i cud actually show u how much i've "blogged" in my mind, u'd b surprised!!

i was at delhi recently, n quite obviously, i mentally blogged a lot. but now that i'm actually here, i'm not writing it down...sigh...if only i didnt think so much....

i think i'll stop doing this...i wont think... :P

fake fake fake!

being fake n living a lie is sometimes a lot of fun. well, literally.

my friend roshni needed a fake doctor's certificate, so the two of us were out to look for a doc who cud give us one. it was really one of the funniest things i have done!

i knew of this doctor in my para who wrote fake doctors certificates. so we went to him. but the chamber was closed n we were asked to return after 1 hr. she was tired after a whole days shooting (yes, she is acting in a film) n i was exhausted after attending 3 weddings in 3 days. we both knew that if we went home, we wouldn't b back. so we decided to hang around.

i remembered this other place, a few yards away where fake certicicates were available. we headed there, only to find that the doc wasnt in the chamber. the doors were ajar n we saw the prescription pad lying on the table. i really wanted to steal it n then write the certificate ourselves, but roshni didnt. i donno what came over her suddenly (she is usually a bigger prankster, always willing to do such things). we sat around for a while, we even laughed loudly at how terrible n dirty the chamber was...no wonder there werent any patients around. we decided to have some fun and so called out "daktar babu achen"? n that was it! we split up n cudnt sit there anymore. i still insisted that we steal a page from the prescription pad, but she didnt agree.

anyway, it was almost time to go visit the 1st doc, so off we went. this chamber was better, though we did find a paper attached to the table fan that said "switch e haat deben na...dewale switch tipun"! but we somehow controlled our laughter. tokhon hashte shuru korle, we wud not have been able to control ourselves in front of the doc.

the doc was pretty sweet, tho he was this old man n was quite reluctant to give a certificate without getting into the heart of the matter. roshni was forced to act sick and also both of us lied like crazy! we told him everything from her being awefully sick to her having been kicked out of the house by an evil aunt! it was sooooo funny!

somehow got the certificate n we ran out of the place, laughing like two insane women on the road! it was a lot of fun, n so, like i said, being fake and lying at times can really b a lot of fun!!!

goodbye to u...my trusted phone

am really upset n pissed as my fon conked off all of a sudden. well, not quite, but almost.

i was very 'close' to this fon of mine...it saw me thru new loves, heartbreaks and even put me on the social map...it was my constant support system, on which i relied for everythin...

but like they say, life is unpredictable and it comes to an end...so my beloved fon had to leave this world someday for its heavenly abode as well. the sad day was thursday, the 26th of November. When i woke up in the morning and glanced at my beloved fon, I had no idea it was going to leave me...i even used it so many times thruout the day...

it was old and its time had come. i was planning a euthanasia for it anyway, and perhaps shud have done so earlier. it wud have saved my fon the ugly death it eventually saw....sigh!

i have a new fon now, but i still miss my old fon...pray for me and hope that i get over the loss soon

vacation...??

its been almost 4 years since i went on a vacation....of course i went for weekend trips to shantiniketan n shankarpur, but that was abt it. i feel so bored! i so badly wanna travel. i wish i cud go on a Europe trip, all by myself. that wud b so cool!

but europe can wait...i cud go anywhere...i jus wanna get on a train or a plane and go somewhere...i'm so tired of going to the airport to see off n recieve ppl!! ufff...ki chaap!!!
this is strange, considering i am the only person i know who has so many holidays n vacations. i think its time i did somethin abt it...so am planning to go to delhi in december....the only prob is that i have 3 weddings to attend...but my school vacation will still b on (i love my job!) n i think i can manage 4 or 5 days.

yey!

but the prob is convincing my dad. he somehow still feels that i'm a little girl who cant b on her own. uffff! though i wonder why this thot doesnt cross his mind everytime he bugs me wit a shombondho! wat a paradox!!!

but will figure a way out...delhi here i came! yey!

orkut at it again!

This guy on orkut wanted to "write to me"...well so much for his writing skills. Take a look:

about me:
Hi, i am koustav chakraborty.I find my perfect life partner.i live in kolkata (saltlake).30 years old.i am a graphics designer. At that moment i work pvt.ltd.add egency.I have only sister.My father is goverment service man. my mother is a house Wife. we are living in saltlake and this is my permanent house.I am Master's in (ENV). I believe true. I heat lie.

i particularly liked the "add egnecy" and "i heat lie".

any idea wat that means?!!?!! :P :D

kiddy party

just had all my kids from school over. had severely over estimated myself. had thought that the kids would be just as well mannered as they were in school, outside it too. but was wrong! had a really tough time managing them, n trying to stop them from fighting with each other.



ppl i need to thank :

1. My brother for letting me use his appartment.

2.My boudi Vivita (for the above reason as well) for helping me arrange the party n being there the whole time

3. My dad for speaking to the parents (he saved me from that...i feel very awkward speaking to parents!!)

4. My dearest friend Pooja for being there and helping me tame the kids! thanks poo, couldn't have done it without u!



so here i am, completely exhausted. Never knew a kiddy party cud b this tiring. we did have a lot of fun tho, with the games, the food, the pinata, the dancing....but am tired!



am ageing...sigh!

BACK (without a bang tho!)

i donno why, but i have stopped blogging. its strange, considering the fact that i love blogs...both to read and to post. its just laziness i guess!! but i hope to b back now...i hope i have the enthu to write regularly...as my friend pooja says, its more of a habit...so i really need to get into the habit!

n also, i need to be more regular coz i'm getting some very weird comments. my last post got some of the craziest comments! ppl hav apparently "answered" my "queries" (i dont remember asking anyone anything!!!). quite funny actually!

anyway, watever it is, i'm back now! i (am very tempted to write PROMISE, but i donno if i'll b able to live up to it!! :P ) hope to be regular. fingers crossed!!!

shankarpur shankarpur

went to shankarpur over the weekend n to say i had a blast is an understatement! wat a place it is...wow! it took me some time to believe that a place in india (n specially bengal!!) cud b this clean :P

the weather was awesome as well, n tho it rained for one whole day, i cant really complain. if u have been lucky enuf to take a dip in the sea wen its raining n is chilling cold, u'll know wat i'm talking abt! man! wat an amazing experience it was :)

hit the beach in the afternoon once again n was extremely kicked to see the clouds going away! raced on the beach...actually raced after ages n came 1st! yey! a million photos were clicked n we cudnt help but notice the kids around who had the same look on their faces that we did everytime we went on vacations with parents n saw friends having a blast! it was like..."why do i have to hold my dad's hand n take every step, while they get to do watever they want?"! some sadistic pleasure that was i swear! :D

drove down to digha that evening n felt like i was back in bengal!! the dirt, the cheap crowd, the lewd remarks....we got it all. n of course how cud it have been bengal if we didnt get to see some 'bawal'?!? saw some poor guy getting bashed up by the locals for god knows wat!

the night was spent chatting n laughing. my dear friends decided catch the sunrise. it was decided that we'd leave at 5 am. so no one wud sleep at night. well, no 1 did sleep that night...they all just fell asleep at 4 am! so much for the sunrise :P

wen finally they woke up, it was almost 9 n even past breakfast time! so we headed to the beach n were rather pleasently greeted by a clear sky n sunlight. bought a plastic ball n played football on the beach. it was one of those things i always wanted to do (pooja...maybe i'll put it on my list now!!), but never did. n then we played beach volleyball...i was pretty convinced all these years that i cudn't play the game n i just proved myself correct! :D it probably is one of those things that look good only in dil chahata hai!

i was the only person in the whole group who didnt know how to swim, so was feeling a bit daft! n mind u...we had champion swimmers n swimming instructors n all wit us. sheesh!! anyway, the sea made up for it, n only after i started shivering badly did i realise that it probably had been 2 hrs we were in the water!

a quick lunch n several photo sessions later, it was time for us to head back home. the trip was over so fast. wanted the weekend to b longer so badly!

so if u havnt been there yet, go to shankarpur. the place ROCKS!
