Another year has passed. New year is just few hours away. And everyone is in the mood of celebration. This post is in no way an attempt to spoil your joyous mood. But anyways it got me thinking about what all I did in 2011. What all I achieved? What all I did? What all I said? What I gained? And last but not the least what all I lost? Well I don’t know about you but 2011 really didn’t go well for me. Lost too many things and gained hardly anything. So all I can hope is that 2012 would be better and far more rewarding then 2011.

[Damn I need to get rid of my laziness. This post was scheduled to go live on 31st and I just realised that we have stepped well into 2012. So publishing the post now. Nothing new but just another stupid wish.]

Happy New Year everyone. [Belated..oops]

Don’t get confused. My Tumblr followers will keep getting the posts in same way as they were getting though they won’t be able to comment on my blog or read any comment. To do that follow the link to original post at the bottom of the tumblr post. Wait for my next post which will come soon.

Cyaa till then.

I may not be the most jolly person around,

I may not walk with the crowd,

I may not be best person you have ever met,

I may not sound pleasing everytime,

But whenever you need this friend of yours,

I will always be around on a road less traveled.

Now this year I got some amazing wishes both here and in real too. Sometimes I don’t feel I am all worth it because the wishes all people around give me. Can’t they just wish simply? Too much words of praise and appreciation come along with those wishes that it gets just so overwhelming to handle in those 24 hours. At times I wish I could skip that one day of my life so that I don’t have to go through all this.

You find that weird. Maybe yes but that’s because when my turn comes to wish someone close, I don’t even know how to do that. I fail to say those right words apart from the usual “Happy Birthday…May you get all the happiness”! Even though I feel like saying so much but can’t go farther than this. It weighs down on me because that person tried to make my day special but when it comes to me, I just stay there with nothing special to do or think of.

Its this process of reciprocating that I don’t know how to do. Same with the gifts thing. That’s why I don’t like the very idea of giving and taking gifts. Because later it becomes more of an obligation than showering your love in form of a special gift. We become a bit materialistic then thinking “Oh, this friend gave me an expensive gift. Now I want to gift even a bigger gift on his/her b’day”. WTF! Stop all this. Friendship doesn’t come with a price tag. A truly heartfelt “Happy B’day” is much more precious than a costly gift item which might have costed you a bomb but doesn’t come with any feeling to show someone what you feel for him/her.

Maybe I am too simple for this materialistic world. Maybe I am too weird. But then I don’t really understand this showoff waala world. I prefer to stay low. I prefer to enjoy life in my own simple way. Probably you won’t like me for that. But that’s my idea. If you ask me how I want to celebrate my birthday I would year after year say – a small gathering with friends and family and a family dinner makes me more than happy. If everyone’s happy around me, that makes my day. [Ok that’s not easy because people around me are usually not happy with me being that simple. But they know me by now so its all Good! Haha! ]

Shradz Speaks Out: Happy birthday Paaji

shradzspeaksout:

First of all the most important, “Happy birthday PaPa Paaji!” It’s yourrrr birthday!!!! You turn older. Khush ho? Dukhi ho? Budde ho rahe ho. Par fir bhi, you can be happy about it, birthday hai yaar! Saal mein ek baar hi aata hai! I was veryy worried about what should I make for you this…

Aww Thank you So much. Love you.

This Music piece is one of the most amazing pieces I have heard till now. Its Meghna’s Intro Theme from Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na Movie. And know what? I really wish that when I meet the love of my life for first time, I want this music to play in background. This tune really expresses what happens when you meet someone special for the first time.

Hats Off to A R Rahmaan for coming out with such awesome music. You will love it for sure.

Now I rarely show or express my happiness the way people around me do. I neither jumped in excitement tonight nor danced to some songs that were being played in the stadium after that win. Wish I knew how to do that. Am Stupid. Grr! And then I saw all those people cheering around me, dancing, bursting crackers, racing bikes on the streets, shouting like anything and doing crazy stuff. More than the India’s win, these things made me happy. Made me proud to be an Indian. Made me proud to live in a country where despite all the corruption, scams and negative things around us, how just a match win can unite the whole country in a single emotion.

Its strange to see how we change emotions suddenly. When Sachin and Sehwaag got out, we almost switched off our TVs, few left their homes to do tasks left pending, others slept, some cried and some were left just speechless. And just few minutes into the Kohli/Gambir paternship, TVs were switched back on, excitement comes back and again we anxiously watch with hopes held high. Never seen so many emotions flowing right in front of your eyes for 11 men who had to carry the hopes, aspirations and dreams of 1.2 billion people. [Pardon my stats if they are not accurate. I didn’t do the census neither I have read about it yet. ]

World is a small place. To see the emotions and excitement of all those proud Indians, I don’t even need to step out of my house. I did that right from my small age old mobile. Loaded Twitter and saw so many tweets flowing like anything. Each Tweet with something different to add, with a different emotion and with a new perspective to the emphatic win.

After seeing so much within few minutes, I didn’t know how to react. What to say. Got few SMSes each saying something about this epic moment and I could reply only with a “:D”. Didn’t know what could I have added or what I could have said to share their happiness. Felt a bit out of place. But in the end, Finally I realised what it means by “Tears of Joy”. That’s the only emotion that came out of me in the end.

Truly one of the best days I could have asked for, a proud moment to be a part of and something which I won’t forget for the rest of my life. Thanks to God that I lived during this period to see this moment.

Life never satisfies.

Some words unspoken

Some desires unfulfilled

Some dreams not true

Some feelings not expressed

Some emotions suppressed

Some distances yet to cover

Some tears still wet.

And a hope not lost that one day you will be mine. A Day where every word will be spoken, all desires be fulfilled, all dreams will come true, all feelings/emotions will be expressed, all distances will vanish and there will be only tears of joy. A Day when I will feel complete with you around me.

Happy Valentine’s Day – my Unknown Love/Valentine!

And please don’t copy this time for your love. No Gurantee of its working. And a very very happy valentines day to everyone.

I hear your name whispered on the wind
It’s a sound that makes me cry
I hear a song blow again and again
Through my mind and I don’t know why
I wish I didn’t feel so strong about you
Like happiness and love revolve around you

Trying to catch your heart
Is like trying to catch a star
So many people love you baby
That must be what you are

Waiting for a star to fall
And carry your heart into my arms
That’s where you belong
In my arms baby, yeah

I’ve learned to feel what I cannot see
But with you I lose that vision
I don’t know how to dream your dream
So I’m all caught up in superstition
I want to reach out and pull you to me
Who says I should let a wild one go free

Trying to catch your heart
Is like trying to catch a star
But I can’t love you this much baby
And love you from this far

Waiting for a star to fall
And carry your heart into my arms
That’s where you belong
In my arms baby, yeah

Waiting (however long…)
I don’t like waiting (I’ll wait for you…)
It’s so hard waiting (don’t be too long…)
Seems like waiting (makes me love you even more…)

Waiting for a star to fall
And carry your heart into my arms
That’s where you belong
In my arms baby, yeah

This is an old song composed way back in 1988 by the group Boy Meets Girl for the album Reel Life. So if anyone wants to impress her girl/guy, you can surely sing this for him/her. And if someone wants the original track you can always find it at beemp3.com!

I get attached to people too easily, and when I do, I start to get the urge to talk to them all the time… simply because it makes me happeh. But it, more often than not, gets misconstrued as me being a creepy boob, which then results in me feeling like I’m not worthy of their time. It’s been like this for almost every friendship I’ve ever made with the people I’m (too) fond of, and it sucks.

I’m such an awkward turtle

I would be a liar if I say I don’t care about you anymore.

I would be a liar if I say I don’t miss you anymore.

I would be a liar if I say I don’t want to talk to you anymore.

I would be a liar if I say I don’t cry when you cry.

I would be a liar if I say I don’t feel happy when you are happy.

I would be a liar if I say I don’t think about you even for a single moment of the day.

I would be a liar if I say I don’t see you when I close my eyes.

I would be a liar if I say you don’t visit my dreams daily.

I would be a liar if I say I feel complete without you.

I would be a liar if I say I don’t love you. Its equivalent to saying that I don’t exist.

I exist only to love you. You complete me. Life is not thinkable even without you by my side.
