Re-defining “Random” …. A random chat with a random person.
When some adds you as a frnd on any IM, and it happens to be the name of someone you know, and you add it without verification… this is what happens. Italics note what I add in as a pointer here and there for the sake of the post.

And poor guy/gal has not come back. shall not do injustice by changing the username… letting it remain. after the chat, blocked the user and went on to post here followed by a high fat-high carb power lunch
And for those of you who say, I played with feelings and all that bull shit, Like my buddy says,.. BACKOFF!!!!!!!!!!!
I think I will die of a breaking heart or a wounded brain.
There was this one time, well yeah, it seems like ages, but probably a little over a year back, when I wrote something close to my heart (the special post). And then as time went by, you tend to forget a lot of things. We have been through that already.
Not knowing what words to choose, or how not to sound dramatic or stupid or anything else that could be as lame, I set to write. Having contacted a close group of friends ( if this post was to be framed in any other way, these people would have been girl2, boys2,3,and 4) and spoken to them after quite some time… I care not if you say a few weeks is not a long time, it is according to me.
When you are friends with people for a long time, and then you move afar, somehow, besides life right now, you tend to talk about good old times. And as usual, the topic of ragging girl1 was raked up.
This was a topic, that under normal circumstances would not have gone beyond a few days, maximum a few weeks, but then in our case it went on for years. So long that now, looking back, I think, it is one of those things that we all enjoyed. And all this thanks to that one person who has been referred to as Boy1/hjkl or anything else ( I really have written a lot over the time to even do a ctrl+F, even if I did I have no clue what I would search for). I am not too sure if he really appreciates it or if he probably hates us, but then, a nice big “Thank You!” to him. ( I really don’t think he visits Frost, else it would have been more personal)
And now that I realise that this one factor is not going to be there anymore, my heart feels a pang – a kind of vacuum, my brain is a lot relived, yet confused as to what could possibly happen to poor me when they decide on the next topic to rag me with.
Here girls 1 and 2 are me and Neeru, respectively. Boys 2, 3 and 4 are Bj, Pappu(aka Ankush) and Sabari, in random order. ( For the record, I really don’t know which ones asked me for pizza or whatever it was). And boy2/hjkl/someone who has been referred to any other way in context, shall not be named.(…may be if i ever gather the guts to ask permission with out a naming fee)
Love is a smoke made with the fume of sighs….
Came across this quote some where online, and then I realised how many times do people in love actually sigh!
And then there are people like us, who sigh just to let out some frustration… Sigh…!!!!
time really doesnt fly…. especially in this corner of the universe!
There are those times and then there are the other times – like now.
The eternal wait. Oh good lord! Like I always say, it is karma! “Born because of the karma of their past mistakes, they make more mistakes, and fall into mistakes” have no clue why, have no clue why not either.
As confused as can be, I seek solace in writing. And simultaneously, compiling lists (seen the new Mercedes S-class a?). There are many lists in the world. And it is time, I made a few too, Cause I really have a lot of time at hand to kill. Gone are those days when I thought every second mattered, but then it is the end of this calendar year, and holiday season…. And I am in Hyderabad. Now you are not all that surprised!
A list of people/songs/food/books/brands/…/Facebook applications I love/hate have been compiled as of today! I don’t think I have been this organized ever in my life. My mum should probably come take a look at the kitchen/fridge/my wardrobe! :o( I seem to be metamorphosing into someone I cant relate to…
Something to do with life and dreams….
Dreaming of what I can put across as the days of yore, those dreamy eyed days, where everything from the zephyrs to the rains seem beautiful, I wake up to harsh reality. It has been terribly long since I dreamt.
And it takes a good friend to remind me of It. I have spoken about how one should pursue their dreams (not here though) and thereby their ambitions and decide their destiny. Sadly, in this day, I have lost, in pursuit of many of my dreams, track of the one dream that I held close to my heart. It may be simply because I have lost many of my routine habits, lost track of reading, poetry, and even my writing. But It was my favorite dream after all.
Dear friend of mine, well wisher and critic, reminds me and urges me to pursue It with zeal, just the way I dreamt of It or spoke about It, or even wrote about It. But fear grips, apprehension overwhelms.
I am not sure of whether I will be able to do what is required of me… rather requested of me. Nevertheless, I will always cherish and hold It close to my heart, something rather sweet and pleasant, and something that got this blog a lot of attention in the past.
Ulluva Charu… contd.
This is the place.. and the birds,lots of them…

Ulluva Charu!
Jammy (MezLearnin) is back in Hyderabad, much to our relief and hers (her first time in this office). And, as always, it is mandatory to go out and catch up on global affairs. This time though there was more reason, the reason to celebrate. Well something like that. Sjpaul had come up with a reason for a “treat”. The pact being that he would treat Jammy back. And Jammy called us too, to discuss Sjpaul’s treat over hers. And thus eight of us went to spicy venue. For those of you who are interested, it is a very homey restaurant that serves delicious andra cuisine, and I highly recommend Ulluva Charu. More on the dish later.
Sail, Sjpaul, Jammy, Paul, Lakshmi, Lovell, Ismiley and me are the participants of this event. Chatting up with people something caught my eye and out of sheer doubt, I consulted sail and Jammy to confirm. In question were lovebirds. This restaurant has a lot birds, caged of course. Lovebirds, parakeets, parrots and the like. We were looking straight across three cages of lovebirds, two filled sleeping birds, snuggling tight to combat the cold. And the third, straight across from where we sat was filled with lovebirds, chirping away happily and flying across to catch the attention of the customers. Amidst the entire ruckus, there was this pair, which was getting rather naughty and explained why these birds are called lovebirds. And we thought bunnies were the horniest! The dinner, which was delicious, nevertheless was amazing, the Ulluva Charu was as usual lip smacking and the company was immensely fun. The lovebirds were more than courteous as they behaved well while we ate only to pursue their activities afterward.
For those interested in Ulluva charu, this is something I found.

PS: By Lovebirds, I actually mean Lovebirds, the avian species,
and not the kind previously discussed.
I am running out of titles!
Seriously! It gets annoying when you have a zillion words and yet no mood to write. It is a trance of overwhelming home sickness that I am going through. It could also be the “in-suppresable”(if thats a real word) Disliking to the city that I currently live in - The City of Nizams.
More to Come on this post. Work in progress. :)
