"tum ban jao host...
hum ban jaye ghost."
excessive laughter causes :
teary eyes,
uncontrollable hickups,
flushed face,
loss of logic and reasoning skills
inability to continue with the concall
neighbour staring at u with "uv lost it man!!" looks
and begining to laugh a lot and starting the process all over again!!!

popularity for all wrong reasons
How long does it take one to teach a fish to walk??
Iv been a land person for the last two decades.put me in a pool full of water where buoyancy keeps interefering with gravity then blame me for almost drowning at a depth of 4 feet.
Its not easy holding onto the rail at the shallow end, with kids (i call them tadpoles) jumping in and out and swarming all over the place.show offs!!
u need to loose ur balance for just a nanosec ,and ur looking at the water surface from below.and then chlorinated water floods all the emtpy spaces in ur brain and then ur circuits get shorted. The neurons cant communicate with your muscles.legs refuse to stretch out. I keep bobbing up and down (at 5 ft its doable) in a foetal position and immagining this it...tommorows headlines in iitb general "student dies a violent death by drowning... at the shallow end of the pool".
barely manage thrash the water surface..meekly signaling for help ...while a fat mom with 9 kids stood glaring at me..looks translated to "how dare u scare my kids"!!
This later on became the famous "how she drowned in 4 ft of water" story which whenevr a dinner table conversation went silent was told and re told and the narrator kept falling of her
seat guwaffing while the others just looked on...u see..in her extreme enthusiasm to publicise the event shed forget that half the people on the table wouldnt know me.
There were many other such stories .."how she crashed her cycle into the hostel gate" ..."how she crashed her cycle next to the bank"..etc..the severe trauma of all these stories managed to keep my cycle neatly tucked away at one corner on the hostel shed...2 months after id bought till...till it rusted and decayed and dissapeared after two years.

Of burmese toast and egg mauritians.
Have been getting in touch with a lot of college crowd ever since i joined Orkut...an online community.
On my last visit to bombay, had gone back to college with a friend...on a sunday.felt like hugging each pillar. Even when non of the ppl were there, i felt so affectionate towards the grey building.Three years of my life I can never forget.
Saw lots of changes, some which i really liked..like the nicely redone cafeteria...and some i didnt like.. like the new look theyv given to woods...looks like a garden now.
Went to the mess and guess what, Uday still remembered us..ate the same grub we used to stuff down our throat while we'd finish our journals some ages back..
xaviers mess can still boast about its burmese toast and edd mauritian (wonder why its called that)

MESSY TALES
Caught up with bawi girl on yahoo.. We date back almost 6 years..and the conversation that started with “hi woman, can’t talk for long..just wanted to say hi� lasted for more than an hour.
Funny how no matter how long it’s been.. its always so easy to pick up threads with ur close friends.
And its funny how in spite of the time zones and months separating us..she managed to zero down on the single most fact which used to sum up my existence in the hostel not too long ago..
�hey does your room still look like it got hit by a hurricane ??�
And I was taken back.. ME?..messy??
On second thoughts,lemme think..
dad almost threatening to throw me out of the house if I didn’t clean up my room in an hour
my hostel floor miraculously disappearing under the pile of loose notes and shirts and bag and mayo bottle and hot plate and melamine dishes and crusty fungusy bread pack and ….god knows what else ---within a week. End of two years I finally had to move to bawi-girls room with a few essential things to see me through the exams cos it was too much of an effort to clean up my room and study . and moving out was more of a pick-things-u-need-and-leave-the-rest-behind.
But now ofcourse im a changed woman.
I can afford a maid who can pick up after me.

gadgets should be for the exclusive few...complicated..with loads of metal..loads of functions..black..and definitely not the sissy "oh im so easy to use, i just have one button which does it all" types.
and for all digi cam freaks...canon EOS 10d...the king of digi slrs
btw...nothing is more frustrating than watching your newly-purchased consumer electronics product get replaced a month after you bought it.prices slashed on ur own sweet model ....

the twists and turns on life...funny how alberts theory gets redifined :))
for men with special company, watching out to the sea
they wish time stands still and just let them be
for men who slog for a certain ounce of ken
they wish it slow down until the strike of ten
for the lady at 9-5 work, as she connects with three
she wishes the latter to stay and the first to flee
for men who seem idle, there is something unknown
theyve been pondering of a new life ahead, new seed to be sown
the transition is sometimes unbearable, sometimes desired
for its not easy to let go what in the past transpired
but people realise that this pace is never too slow or fast
time shall run on its own n soon it shall be past
--Viral
