It's my B'day today!!!!

Your Birthday Predicts You're Fiery

Ever since you were born, you've loved taking risks. You crave excitement and thrills. You are driven by your passion. You may have a wild streak, but you also love learning and experiencing life. You're multi-faceted and can't be labeled. You're sexy, smart, flexible, and stubborn.

Well, I think what Blogtings has predicted about me is almost true....

Okay, Time Again To Celebrate the Glory of God !!!

Yeah,It's time again for another of my birthday due in some 4 more days. So, I should be thanking god that i am alive this long, right???My birthdays have not been any special event for celebration at all, actually i don't remember someone making me cut a cake for my birthday even once in my lifetime.But cutting a cake is not the only thing birthday is all about, right??My birthday involves wishes from my loved ones, going to temple to thank god that i am alive on this earth for such a long time (even if it is to bring trouble for others),wearing whatever things new i can get hold of from my almirah, distributing sweets to friends, doing my routine activities (yeah,sure that changes every year),cajoling amma to make some payasam for me and so on. So birthdays are no big deal other than the happiness i get from that "It's My B'day" feel.

Talking about birthday gifts, i don't remember receiving any special gift except the windchime that i got from my buddy Sindhu when i was in my pre-degree. She turned up in the morning at my home and gave me this sweet looking, green colored. stick like windchime that i tied in my room the moment i got it and listened to it singing in the wind.Yea, i think that was the sole gift that i have ever got from my friends or anyone around in my predegree days.You sure must be pitying me, right???Poor me, what else should I say...

Then the other gifts i remember receiving was a beautiful blue handbag, a lovely Devdas bangle and a cute handmade gift from my Mercian friends when i was doing my graduation. But now that i am really thinking about the gifts i got, why didn't they give me any gift in my first and second years???Why only in the third year??Were they afraid that i will leave them and choose someone else if they didn't gift me at least in the last year?? How irresponsible...

The one birthday that i remember bright and clear is from my Coimbatore days.I was doing my training there and if am right,it was my 23rd b'day.I had a friend there named Tamarai.She was the bestest but i unfortunately lost her because of a big misunderstanding.I'll update you on that story later.So on the eve of my b'day,i was totally unaware of my roommates' plans.I was all prepared for my b'day with a cute blue dress and orange and coconut flavored Haldiram's Soan Papdi (that's my amma's favorite too) for everyone in my room and class.So I had my friends in another one room as well as 4 people in my room.Usually I was the person who sleeps early, by 10 o'clock the least.The others always stays up and my buddy Arunya always sleeps only around 2 after her rounds in all the other rooms in our floor(remember, that counts to nearly 20 rooms).If i start talking about her now,am sure i wont be able to finish this note, so let me stop about her here.So, this particular day, I was the one staying up and everyone else had made their beds, including Arunya, and someone had started to even snore (that was dhevi from the next room, she sometimes sleeps in ours becoz she was the only one left alone in another room from our batch).I was wondering what happened, was something wrong with the vegetable biriyani they had served in the mess that Thursday eve?But then, why was i not sleepy?But i was not at all suspicious about anything. Eventually, i too went off to sleep reading a book as i usually do.By the time i switched off the light, everyone were snoring off in their beds.

I dreamed of many things.If i remember right, i was running through a forest, don't know how i reached there and i could see heavybuilt people following me, god knows for what.Suddenly someone called my name !!!! For a moment, my breath was arrested.I sat bolt upright on my bunk bed.I could see someone holding a candle light in the darkness but couldn't see any one holding it. The candle light was standing in the air.I shouted, Aaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhh.....That's it, and there were everyone singing "Happy B'day to you...." with music from one musical greeting card accompanying their singing.Then i came to my senses and realized that i was the victim of their plot....Everyone came and kissed me and wished me long life and fed me with chocolates and cup cakes in the middle of the night and gifted me with a copy of A.P.J.Abdul Kalam's Ignited Minds.That was a wonderful surprise B'day night.

So,let me see how my b'day turns out this year friends....Have a good time and don't forget to wish me and send me gifts....Luv you all...

The Story Continues Even If It Can't be Considered a Story...Whew!

So, it's been a long time since i posted anything real in here and i think i've been beating around the bush a lot. So it's high time i get back to where i'd ended my personal story and i think i need to upkeep this blog every day because I have joined 20sb as you can see on my page and i really want to make my blog honed to all those out there whom i love.

My pre-degree course came to an end and now i was a free bird but at the same time a lot of worries filled up my mind as to what course i should choose next. And it was pretty difficult for an average student like me to get admission in a course that i really wanted but as usual i hoped everything will turn the right way because god was with me, I believed. Most of my friends got through the entrance and were going to become Doctors and Engineers as that was the most preferred course for everyone. Not much aimed for anything different from that path. I am not blaming those who considered pursuing those as career but why can't people be more creative and do things differently??? Okay, don't think am still of that opinion because am not; as these are the jobs that bring good bucks our way and that's the most important factor with which you can even become creative one day,hah!!!So, in the end I managed to get admission to Bachelor of Science in Chemistry at a "Women's College". The saddest part was that within the quotes. The day came for the interview and admission and i was waiting in the waiting area with my dad. To speak truly,it was a beautiful college with a beautiful atmosphere, but none of that entered my eyes. I was somewhere else, I loved my previous college, even if its buildings were old, gutting and the grounds covered with weeds and years of trash, I loved that place more than this.I felt tears in my eyes because I didn't want to study in any other place in my home town other than my old college but my marks were against my chances. And then I became a Mercian from Victorian (am just making that up from my college names, so don't get confused).

My new college was beautiful in all respects. There was a big beautiful garden all around, a huge auditorium, an excellent library, a good canteen and even a cool ice cream stall except that i was surrounded by just green salwar kameezes(that was the uniform) and dupattas. No guys anywhere other than the drivers of our buses and slowly, I started to merge into the green sea and became one among them. Within two weeks, the Fresher's Day of the college was arranged when all the first year students were to perform for their seniors and entertain them for a full 1 hour. I too joined up as i thought i sang pretty okay and you know what, my song Chaha he tujhko from Mann movie got the biggest applause. The whole college came to know about me and i was just floating in the air for at least one month after that event and thus i started to like the college.

Now, when i think about the time i spent in that college, i think a women's college is the most safest place to study with no disturbance, no comments from neighbors. You can wear whatever you want the way you want, walk however you like, talk whatever you want, and even do whatever you want in the classroom during recess. There are no restrictions and no ill will and my class of 24 was a real good one with girls who were really afraid of teachers. Sometimes they behaved like kids but i really changed a lot of them by asking them to show courage and not behave like kids. Most of the girls were from "Girl's schools" and so has never faced any offish behavior from guys which can make them strong. This will be the only reason i'd opt for a college with both guys and gals as a girl's college would be nicer in all other respects.

My three years of college came to an end very fast. If you ask me whether it was a boring life over there, Ya, it sometimes was but my group of five including me had fun every moment we were together. Neels was a bit on the heavier side, but she was an excellent dancer and cutie of the college and teachers' pet, Resh was beautiful but really awkward at times, Div was a sweetheart with no too much talk and no too less talk, she was just the highfalutin type, Smitu was the real fun kind, the jokes she cracked mostly from old movies (ya, she even remember the correct dialogues), that too in between our Hindi madame's classes just made us roll on our stomachs and because we were always the latecomers and the backbenchers in her class, she didn't care much in the 70-something-filled classroom.

More on my Mercian days will follow.....

What's Your Word???

Your Word is "Think"

You see life as an amazing mix of possibilities, ideas, and fascinations. And sometimes you feel like you don't have enough time to take it all in. You love learning. Whether you're in school or not, you're probably immersed in several subjects right now. When you're not learning, you're busy reflecting. You think a lot about the people you know and the things you've experienced.

What's" Your Word?

This is what i found out on checking what my word on my life is. I am a lot bored this moment and so thought why not steal some time from my busy job to post here...so this was it....Take care all...
