Yaad aayenge yeh pal!

One fine day, all of us will get busy with our lives, long working hours, no more classes, no more lectures to bunk, no time for friends and sms, wont have time for ourselves, at such a day, I will look out of my window and see the good old memories flash by with a smile and a tear in my eyes . I’ll then turn back to my work thinking I wish I could go back and re live these memories…………………
This is to all my friends who have helped me create such memories….. thank you for being such important part of my life! And sharing a few years of your lives with me……………….
That is just me!

Ever cared to notice the beautiful sky?

I don’t know how many of us really have the time in our busy lives to actually sit back and observe the sky and the nature…. I have always admired the nature be it in any form….. the closest to me is the twilight ……. I remain awe struck at the beauty of nature…. No paint in the palette can ever get those shades right!

One evening when I was talking a walk on my terrace, I clicked these pictures. …. I fall short of words to describe the beauty of this scene. It is amazing to see how the nature can manage to get such an excellent blend of colours and make the sky look so beautiful. The orange and blue colors blend in with ease and explain how such contrasting colors can get along effortlessly………. It is a lesson to learn
As an artist I have always wanted to be able to reconstruct these images. And I remain unsuccessful till date in this task. These images are very close to my heart and the day I am able to recreate them it would certainly be the biggest achievement………………….
Perceptive?!
That is just me!

Relation called friendship

On the shore of life
True friends are like waves
They do come with an intention
Of never to go….
But sad its not always so…..
Love is what they seem to show,
They touch you in such a special way…
That in your heart they always stay.
They always help and thoughts they share…..
Even when they are not around…..
A feeling of closeness is always there….

This is just me!

Blue...........

No no no I am not talking about the latest Hindi movie! Don worry.. ah what a disastrous movie, such an insult to the colour blue…………
Well those of you who know me, will surely have a smile on their face because they know what I am going to be talking about……. Yes it’s the color blue………..
Everyone around me, including me fail to understand the reason why I love this colour so much! It is almost involuntary that I started liking this color…… I kinda have this blue screen in my cones, which involuntarily make me look at that color. You put me in a store and I will pick up only the blues, no wonder how flashy the other colors are….. (florescent colors included)
Blue to me is soothing, it is the color of the sky and the biggest stress buster to me….. I feel so much more lighter and close to nature because of this color!
Some achievements on this front:
I know most of you will not believe this, but I was actually certified as “The Blue Freak” of my class in second puc………….. believe me, it was not easy to get this achievement, after all I was competing with so many more people in my class, as blue is the most commonly liked color by majority of people.
Apart from this I have an Email id: blue_fav…………………..
Unbelievable huh?
That is just me!

How insignificant

I am a leader, I am an achiever, I am going to be famous one day, I am a celebrity…….. the list may go on………. Though the word “I” is very small, people seem to give maximum importance to the same word “I”…
I mean we can never stop thinking about ourselves… somehow the whole world seems to revolve around us… the only thing we care about throughout our life is the “I factor”.
Each one of us have an attitude about ourselves and about life and this attitude is what describes the person we are. There are many people in this world who think they have achieved a lot, there are people who think they set benchmarks for the rest of the world and there are people who think they are the most powerful in this world……
Once upon a time I was one among them……………….
But one day my friend came up to me and told me about this simple fact, which shook my base….. this fact got me rooted. So here it goes….. we know how big our solar system is. Our solar system belongs to milky way galaxy and there are millions of such galaxies in the universe. Sun is just one star around which nine planets (now discovered 3 more) i.e twelve planets revolve. And sun is just one star belonging to the milky way galaxy and there are millions and millions of such stars in this universe…… this should give an idea about how large and massive this universe is and how insignificant sun is as a star in the universe, then how insignificant would be the earth as a planet and how insignificant would we be as humans on this planet!! We are merely nothing. We are much more insignificant than ants and mites….
Keeping this in mind….. I begin to wonder, how people build their own universe around them and how they begin to think so much about themselves……
Afterall we are so damn insignificant!!!!!
P.S: Thank u so much dear friend. Had you not told me this fact my life would have been terribly different!
Too intellectual?!
That is just me!

The Twilight Effect!

When I was little, I used to read a lot of fairy tales and fictitious stories. From then I have been of the idea that angels are good people with wings and they are always around to take care of you. And demons are bad people or creatures who like killing people and so on. I almost developed phobia to negative characters like demons and ‘Vampires’. Until one day, when my friend came up to me and told me about this novel called ‘Twilight’ and she gave me the basic story line……
Hmmm this was interesting, a love story of a normal girl and a VAMPIRE!!! It caught my immediate attention……. But I am just not the kind who would patiently wait to read the whole novel! So I took the easy way out, I watched the movie.
I agree that I may have missed out on many important parts, which were in the book but not in the movie, but since I dint know the details of the book, I enjoyed the movie………
It is needless to explain the storyline. What is interesting is the fact that a normal girl falls in love with a Vampire. Now this is a very interesting point. I mean aren’t vampires supposed to live on human blood? Well well but this does not seem to be the scene in the movie. Infact the vampire is so handsome and harmless that every girl would want him as their boyfriend.
What I love the most is that the vampires eyes change colour according to his moods. The way his eyes shine when he looks into her eyes with love! Oh it is just adorable! He is the perfect guy, he is protective about her, he takes care of her, he loves her and the most important fact is that though he is the most tempted by her scent of blood, he is the one who is trying his best to save her from the others. I think this is the best way to portray love. I mean it would be the last thing a vampire would do, to resist himself from blood, which tempts him the most!
Edward Cullen has become the talk of the town and I am not at all surprised why!
For all the girls he is their dream….. and I am one of them!
Sometimes I really wonder how stereotypes can be broken and have such a great impact on the audiences! So here goes cheers to Stephanie Meyer, who has done a commendable job of it.
Living in a fantasy land?!
That is just me

This is just adorable!

I am sure everyone would surely have a smile on their face!
Enjoy watching

Somethings remain unspoken!

Some people know the way to make each day worthwhile…
They seem to catch the sunshine and then wear it in their smile,
they really take interest in the little things you do..
You know they ll share your problems and will always see you through,
they give with generosity that never seems to end....
They know the precious secret of jus being a companion and a good friend...
She has been there with me ever since she was born…
And I have got the privilege to wake up every morning by looking at her pretty face..
She may not be able to connect with me, as much as my friends….
And if we are not on the same page, its only because our age!
She fights with me and I throw tantrums on her….
But at the end of the day, we both smile at our childish ways…
She makes my bed at times and so do I but all of this goes without saying why!
She is my cute little angel and I would never be able to do without her…
as she is the one who can lift my spirits and keep my emotions at bay!

Too emotional?!!!
:) That is just me!!

Made for each other

Together they are the perfect couple….
And its amazing to see a relationship which is so supple…
Through the odds of life they have always been battling…
But towards each other they have always been caring…
Their lives have been like an open book…
In which none of the lines have been overlooked…
All these years with each other, have indubitably flown away like a bubble..
And I am sure they will have many more without any trouble…

Now is'nt that adorable?!!
Well!!!! That is just me.....

Summer of 2009

We all talk a lot about changing the society and trying to be a “part of the change” in the society. This was the first opportunity I ever got to make a difference and not only be a part of the change, but to be the change. I have always adored children and I believe that significant amount of change can be made if a child is moulded in their early stages.
It was just like a dream come true. Like i just woke up to a bright sunny morning, with the sun smiling and embracing me with a warm hug. this was my opportunity to make a difference. I was at Dream A Dream an NGO who provide soft skills training to the under priviledged children. I joined them as a volunteer and helped them out with the annual summer camp!
I was eager to meet the children. I was alloted the children of class 7. They were a bunch of naughty and noisy students. But i could see the excitement in their eyes too. They were jumping with joy and they loved the whole concept of 'Summer camp'.
Every day was blissful to me. All the children would be waiting eagerly every morning and welcome me everyday with a huge smile and say “Good Morning Akka”, which means good morning elder sister. Just that expression would be more than enough to get me going for the rest of the day. It was among these bunch of kids that i noticed this small cute guy 'Kiran'. He was just too cute to be ignored. Kiran was THE BRAT of the school. There was not one day when he did not get punished by the principal. But i just couldnt stop myself from going and giving him a hug! He was the guy who would bring a smile on my face no matter what.
In no time i had got really close to him, though he was not in my class. And i am happy to say that the feeling was mutual! He would make it a point to come to me every single day. Sometimes he would actually go out of his way and buy flowers for me and wish me "good morning"
At one point there was a time when he would not listen to anyone but me! I felt so important and touched........
Untill one day, when the "D" day arrived.... it was my last day at the school. I took too long to realise that, but then i saw Kiran, he came running to me and asked me to click this picture of his... the shine in his eyes was worth a million dollars... Suddenly all my class students surrounded me and posed for a group photograph, immediately after that i see him clinging onto me... he screamed out in rage and said he wanted a picture only with me.... he actually pushed away all the other people around!!! I couldnt believe wat just happened! He was possessive about me....
It was time to leave the school and leave him.... my heart sunk.. the thought that i would not be coming back to school the next day hit me really hard.... and there he was right in front of me.. the guy i would miss the most....
He came running to me with a pen in his hand and asked me to give my autograph and mobile number...... I obliged....He bade me farewell with a warm hug and a smile...
That day as i stepped out of the school, i realised i had made a difference... if not massive, atleast a small amount of difference......
Now that is just me!
