Sit Down man, You're a bloody tragedy!!

It was Raksha Bandhan on 16th aug, but since Lunar eclipse fell on that day, the occassion was celebrated on the followin monday.
Its a nice occassion honourin the brothers & sisters. I have celebrated the traditional way only twice or thrice, but I have always tied, mailed the rakhis to my cousin brothers no matter what. Although, this year its all still pending, even though my brother is in town!!

My 1st Lunar eclipse experience...
It should be said that, Lunar eclipse will start by 10:30 pm, not that it will occur at 10:30pm.
Shock followed when I found out that you arent supposed to eat or store food during this period.
Horror followed when mom told me that beggars line up the mumbai streets at night,beggin.
Despair followed when my baby refused to drink the milk I wanted him to finish before the eclipse.
Scared when I was the only one awake to witness this event with all those scary images chasing my mind(plus they were showin "Hollow man' on tv). Woke up my man friday to accompany me to the kitchen...
Back to shock when I realized that it took 2 hrs for the moon to b hidden, 2 seconds for it to appear again, which means I just missed it after all that drama!!
Turns out, only a sliver of the moon remained & it didnt vanish completely!!
Aug 27th - was a day of the two moons - my man friday tried tellin me that one was venus, but seeing that continuing the topic would send him to pluto, he kept quiet!! Now, the scheduled time for this rare occassion was 12:40am. As usual I stayed awake, until I realised I couldnt see even a single moon from my side of the apartment!! So, I slept off by 12:40am!! & missed the 6.5 richter scale earthquake which hit the place at 1am!!
Maybe my luck will change with the Solar eclipse ...

Moony Lupin - your spirits shall live on!!

Its no use! Everybody gets good enemies except me!!

It was Friendship week recently & am goin to try payin tribute to most of my friends!!
These are my pals who have been with me at various stages & are still part of my life!!
Before invasion, I had two pals during junior year - one pal was allowed to invite only friend per year for her bday party!!The other was secretly married for a yr or so and then sued her parents for some reason...
During Invasion - While in AVK, nagercoil, I met two people who became my good friends only 7 yrs later...
Divya(also my cousin) eventually married this guy who had secretly hacked my pc for about 6-7months, freakin me out.
Sajay - got me into serious trouble at college, often gangin up wit the guys. He bought me an orange(transparent) lipstick as a farewell gift.
After invasion- senior year, this part portrays me as a multiple personality character - I had about 4 groups of pals and each had nothin to do with the other and 2 groups didnt get along with the 5th person at all!!
Naureen - she drives me insane & is my oncall gynaec!! she went to egypt,met an egyptian, married him. Her wedding card had the wrong phone nos and no weddin date.
Nusrat's stayin hardly 10 minutes away & v have hardly met in over 3 yrs!! Also, she refuses to let me go to her dental clinic!!
Dimple got mad at me because I had seen her crush topless and had gotten all his school books!! now, she's married to a thakur with all the works - the horse, the sword and all...
Anita had the option of namin her daughter after me, but chose not to!!
Jubie went to India for a holiday and found herself married within 2 weeks!!
Sharon's younger sister dated my first ever crush & she couldnt wait to tell me!!
Sunil told me somethin so profound once that I tell it to all when am in a fightin mood -"when two friends fight, one should remain calm & patient, otherwise, it could ruin the friendship"
College -
Induja - The day after we were ill treated by a prof... v went to see Dum Dum Dum to rid our sorrows & it worked wonders!!
Lenin - He was a pal of my crush, so v avoided him, but he turned out to b a fun guy.
Jayanth - Epal - v met over a fwd about Urban legend & used to chat almost every night. He later married a girl who shared my first name!!
Anju - Am glad we became pals!! Despite the fact we didnt know eachother initially(& i was asked to avoid her), she still gave me a lift home after our photography classes. turns out we are 3rd generation of family friends!!she's like this whirlwind of entertainment - the getogethers, drives, movies, food, tv series!!
Kavitha - She reminds me of Mona Lisa - that serene smile, but a fountain of mystery beneath!! I dont think I have ever been so frustrated by anyone more!! always scribblin on the desks with her quotes or lyrics!!
Together, the 3 of us have discussed anatomy on tissues, nicknamed crushes to the extent of "chappal guy", done assignments listening to nursery rhymes, watched "Counterfiet contessa",freaked out my crush and gave a few a hard time!!

Its weird how whenever I have got work to do, my mind seems to freeze and somebody very calm/utterly disoriented steps into my shoes and does not help do any work!! I named her Shocoholic!!
Shocoholic took over again recently( as I have a deadline to meet with tomorrow) and went surfin the net yet again and found some trivial nonsense and went on to put it up here!!
Celebrity Siblings!!

Aaron & Nick Carter!! Emilio Estevez & Charlie sheen
Warren Buffet & Sherly Temple
Celebrity Parents!!
Tom Cruise with his 3 kids
Finally, Celebs out to scare people!!



These are at some picnic charity for kids or something like that!! I guess the ladies thought they must dress up like kids to scare people from having any!!









There is this party Paris Hilton threw for kids and pets... i dont think the kids or their parents will ever forget that party, no matter how many therapists they pay!! Click HERE if u dare to see it!!

Dude, where are my eggs?

This is the 21st century and well, the world is gettin crazier by the second!!
These days, every word, even two letter words have double meanings, so much such that am suprised people havent opted to converse in sign languages!!

My man friday and myself had gone shoppin over the weekend and to make a long story short, we kinda forgot to take our egg tray which the attender having broken a few had gone to replace. The next day I squeeze my way thru the heavy crush at the mall to the lost & found and
"Excuse me, I lost my eggs here yesterday, did u find them?" Mam, Where did u loose ur eggs?How many eggs were there? Could u please sign here sayin that u have recieved your eggs intact!!

Somebody just rang up for my colleague and asked to be called back on his extension number - Trouble one !!

It isnt that am Lazy, its just that I dont like Work!!

Inspired by Kavitha's & Anju's post, I surfed this site in order to keep myself from hittin the panic button regardin an approachin deadline!! What followed kinda backfired on my emotions!!
Here's a li'l background info about myself - Two things that have drastically changed in the past few years are my Hair and my Eating habits.
Where once I had thick curly hair, I now have thick straight hair. I can literally swear by Schwarzkopf shampoo/conditioner/hair regenerator - they really are God sent!!
Where once I was skele-thin... I, now am being badgered to stay off food!! However, my theme for this year is to try out as many different varieties of food as often as possible! So far, I've tried Thai food(too spicy), Egyptian(had bird eye soup),Crabsticks salad, squids, kalamary, prawns head...

Gettin back to the Quizes...



Grey's Anatomy- I really like this series !!
We're adults. When did that happen? And how do we make it stop?


Love my Sophia Loren and H&M low neck top!!have one top that is yet to come out of the closet!! & yeah i have become a big Spendthrift at times!!


Scrubs -Dont like him much- he over acts...but dead on the target!!



Am so NOT milhouse!! I was aiming for bart or Lisa!! that is absolutely wrong!!
though I am asked to grow up a lot!! Wonder Y??


Dont worry Simon, I wouldnt put anybody through that ever!!



I do pick out the wrong guys!!but they are drop dead gorgeous ...so it kinda balances the scale!!


Quick witted, funny, sarscatic and annoyin(?)hmm...
Workaholic?Only when under pressure!!


Gilmore Girls -
Sookie: I should not be a parent. Lorelai: Sookie. Look at me. There are many people in this world who should not have been parents. Mr. and Mrs. Hitler might have taken a pass at procreating. The Bin Ladens could have watched TV that night.But... you. No way. You're going to be a great parent.


Some more quotes from Gilmore Girls :

Luke: Taylor, no, no, no, no, and every day from now on 'til the end of my life, I am gonna come in here and say, "Taylor, no." And when I die, I'm gonna have them freeze me next to Ted Williams, and when they find the cure to what I died of and they unfreeze me, my first words are gonna be, "How's Ted?" followed closely by, "Taylor, no."
----
Reverend: The church is exempt from your town statutes, Taylor.
Rabbi: We answer to a higher authority... like the hot dog.
Reverend: I laugh every time you say that.
Rabbi: I know. Funny is funny.
Taylor: Well, I can guarantee that God does not want this either.
Reverend: Did you hear that, David? Taylor Doose is in direct communication with God.
Rabbi: Thirty years I'm working for God, I haven't received so much as a card.
Reverend: Is it by phone that you speak with him, Taylor?
Rabbi: Do you have a God phone, Taylor?
Taylor: Rabbi, please.
Reverend: What's he like? For us common folk who've never met him?
Rabbi: Is he short, is he tall?
Reverend: Does he like to laugh?
Rabbi: Is the whole shellfish thing really serious? Because, I gotta tell you, some of these Red Lobster commercials...
