Saari umr hum

Saari umr hum office mein mar gaye
Ek pal to ab humein jeene do jeene do


Saari umr hum
office mein mar gaye
Ek pal to ab humein jeene do jeene do


Na na na.Na na na.Na na na.Na na nana na.


Give me a break now
Give me some peace
Give me another chance
I wanna go home once again


Give me a break now
Give me some peace
Give me another chance
I wanna go home once again


Kandhon ko laptop Ke bojh ne jhukaya
Client se jhoot bolna tho khud Manager ne sikhaya
4.5 ya 5 rating laaoge to chhuti, varna kismat futi


Kaam kar kar ke pada Ungaliyon pe
REVIEW, SCREEN aur REWORK ka chaala
Is Project ne to sala poora..
Poora bheja pakka daala


Career to gaya
Boy Friend bhi gaya
Ek pal to ab humein
jeene do jeene do


Saari umr hum
office mein mar gaye
Ek pal to ab humein jeene do jeene do


Give me a break now
Give me some peace
Give me another chance
I wanna go home once again


Give me a break now
Give me some peace
Give me another chance
I wanna go home once again


Na na na.Na na na.Na na na.Na na nana na.

Meeting Prince Charming

A part of a conversation I had with a newly married colleague of mine ;-)


He comes to the floor dreamy eyed, shining bright with a hint of blush in his cheeks. Looks around and checks if anyone’s noticed his presence, in order to cheer him up I said ‘Hey S, welcome back!!’


VS : Hi!! How are you??
Me : going good.. so where are the sweets??
VS : Oh! Sorry blah blah… So when are you giving me the good news of your marriage??
Me : When its time .. he he


By then another friend of mine joined us and the question was diverted to her marriage


VS : So M, when are you giving me the good news??
M : *blush*
I keep a straight face as I whispered; ‘tell him once you get married only then can you giev him the good news..., isn’t it wrong to have a child out of wedlock??

M : *blush*
VS : I see you are blushing, that means somethings round the corner!!
M : *blushes*  gives me the do something look
Me : Well she is actually waiting for her prince charming to come in a white horse and take her away *chuckle*
M : *petrified* I’m gonna kill you for this
VS : Oh ! like in the movies? Nice to hear that so Sig, how is your prince gonna come like??
Me : Ah.. think  think.. we need to keep this going...
Me : *smile* Well he will come riding an elephant and take me away *wink*

M gives me the WTF look while VS is thinking hard to figure out why I chose an elephant to ride on.


VS : Oh yes!! In Kerala elephants are used for auspicious ceremonies they are considered to bring good omen with them right??
Me : Boy!! You got it!!  and yeah he would be wearing those traditional mundu and vesti
VS : Will he be having a sword in his hands??? LOL and will it be a white elephant??
Me : LOL no white elephants please… and Of course yes, he is my prince charming!! My warrior!! how can he come without his sword of honor when he's coming for me??

M shakes her head and rolls her eyes at me.. and gives me that cut the crap lady look

Me : And yeah he will have his hairs rolled in a bun like how those old princes used to do


VS : *puzzled* ohh ok and maybe you will be wearing those traditional set saree of mallus right??
Me : Obviously and I would have my hair pleated.. but wait a minute my hair isn’t that long! God I should start growing my hair long enough that I can pleat it.. God please don’t send him until then…
VS and M :   *gives the lets get out of here look*
Me : You see I want the picture to be perfect.. it would look incomplete.. but now I need to figure out on how do I get on top of the elephant so he can take me away??


VS and M : *vanishes*


Poor souls were too busy to even say that they were leaving.. well its their loss… not mine :)

Waking up


She opened her eyes and looked down.. he was there.. as always lying on her stomach... sleeping like a child.. but she was the child amongst the two and it was he who bought out the child in her.
She ran her fingers through his hair and smiled to herself as she watched his head rising up and down in rhythm with her breathing. Slowly she moved his head down from her stomach so she could get up.. he slowly  moved up and hugged her tight, fluttered his lashes and lovingly looked at her through the windows of his soul. They laid there for sometime... lost in each other.. as always.. and then they kissed each other and rose with the rising sun.

A bunch of nosy loosers

Ever been in a situation where the most unconcerned set of people seem to be really concerned about the whereabouts of you and why you did not get through the entrance examinations or why you didn't get placed in a so n so company and why you aren't married and if married why you haven't had kids in 3 months??? and if you have kids then... I guess why you haven't bought a house for yourself?? and then why you couldn’t get admissions in so-n-so school... and then why your kids didn't get through the entrance examinations and its a never ending list and always forms a vicious circle.


Being single at the age where my friends are giving birth to kids has been the woes of my relatives and not so close friends of mine. Given below are the excerpts from a few maddening entertaining conversation with the best of my list of well wishers!!!


Ms A was someone who once cribbed about how she used to get irritated at the way people keep questioning her marital status. How insensible people can get and how they can't mind their own business :-)


Ms A : Hey, long time no see wazzup with ya?
Me    : Hi, yeah hows you?? (when have we been such great friends for u to miss me soo much??)
Ms A: Am doing fine, doing great!! getting married soon
Me   : Oh great man!! congratulations!!! who's the guy and when the D day??
Ms A : (After feeding me on the minutest details of her forthcoming fortune she finally asks )
          So are you still planning to climb up your career graph and stay single?? Why don't you get married girl??
Me    : Well.... who says am not married yet?? am already married to my profession ;-)
Ms A :  Nice, hey I gtg now, need todo my wedding shopping!!!
Me : Bye (get lost you hypocrite)


Uncle V paid a visit to my home when I was on vacation. One of  the top listers in my black book of bad people, I hated him to the core. But Mamma dear doesn't approve of me from pouring out my inexorable  love on him. Now that he was a guest and since my family is known for our hospitality I made him a cup of tea, and went ahead to serve him with a few assortments.


Uncle V : God bless  you my child, everybody should have a daughter like you
Me        : :) (Shut up you liar bum)
Uncle V : I will find a nice groom for you, girls like you only deserves the BEST
Me        : flashes a shy smile (of course I deserve only the BEST)


A few hours post the incident I was phoned and informed by a cousin that Uncle V was visiting his house and he mentioned something like ... Meety's having a boyfriend in Hyderabad, and thats the reason why she isn't married yet. Her mother should have seen it coming know?? sending single daughters out of state to earn money.. let her suffer for her doings.. Hmmph had Amma let me do what I wanted to do when I saw him in the morning!!


Then there was this lovely friend of mine who was soo soo concerned for me... Here the link to a post by my friend, this was based on that last conversation that I had with that special friend.


And last but not the least.. a relative??? of mine who seem to have promised himself to shoot me off with questions based on my marriage...


SP : Hi
Me : Hi
SP  : I'm so n so person who is so n so's cousin... I don't remember meeting you but saw all my cousins in our mutual friends list
Me : Yeah I checked with one of my cousins before adding you
SP : So, are you married???
Me :  not yet... am not in a hurry at all  :)


2 Weeks later


SP  : Hi
Me : Hi
after all the formal exchange of queries related to health wealth and happiness
SP  : I've been going through your pictures, you seem to be gaining more n more with every recent pic
Me : Yeah unable to keep a check on my food intake
SP  : You have a boyfriend??
Me : No, Y?
SP : Well in that case you better keep a check on your weight... if you keep gaining at this rate then it'll be hard for you to get married
Me : Oh Thank you soo much for your concern, but don't expect me to get into size zero for a prospective groom  when I don't really know if he wants me round, seize zero or obese.


After a weeks time


SP : Hey, hello
Me : Hi (grrrrrrrrrr)
SP : So late?? whats cooking??
Me : nm (now that u pinged me its my brain thats cooking)
SP : Chatting with your boyfriend???
Me : 'Boys' who are 'friends' (haven't you asked about my boyfriend before??)
SP : So marriage vallathum??
Me : No (#$%^& hey wait a minute I can't keep letting him talk to me like this... let me get the better of him)
Me : Can I ask you something??
SP : Shoot
Me : Did anybody from our family tell u that in case I don get married in nother 1 months time, then u'll have to marry me??
SP : what?? I don't understand
Me : I repeat :) Did anybody from our family tell u that in case I don get married in nother 1 months time, then u'll have to marry me??
SP : No y??
Me : Well I couldn't think of any other reason for ur curiosity around my marriage
SP : ha ha ha
Me : hee hee hee


It might've been a little rude, but that will keep me away from his irritating thesis related to my marriage.


For once... why don't people mind their own business?????
