FIRST DAY..........

hii there....
was sitting all alone...............
WHAT????????
................, i know thats what the reaction people might have who know me personally . Actually they must be wondering, how can she sit alone without blabbering away to glory........in school my teachers wrote remarks like " Talkative" in my report card and with promotion ... my remarks also kept changing.... from "Talkative ", it became"Too Talkative", then "Very Talkative" ,then"Extremely Talkative" and the talkative list continues even till today.....

................. in 4th std.... in Auxilium Convent...as the name suggests it was a girls missonary school, but then they had co-ed from kg to 4th......so teachers tried making me sit with a cute boy .... i still remember his name was dinesh (i was really upset when he left to join Don Bosco after 4th),..........thinking i'l not talk to boyz atlest and thats how they'l be able to control me....... ........but then how could i lose the opportunity , i continued talking there too........hehehehe!!!!
Cheerz to old times

Oh...ok..so before i forget u must be wondering too, that why was i sitting all alone........ well i had an argument with all my friends.... and i have decided that i'l never speak to them ever....
( which is impossible...as a matter of fact) , so as i am angry and waiting for someone to come and manaofy me.......i thot of writing this..........vaise bhi this was pending since a long time.... thanks to my friends....i finally finished it.....

............. ok so before we deviate...lets get back to the topic................
No the topic is not on my blabbering skills...its on the "first dayz".........

We all have first dayz in our life......... first day in college, first day in school, first day in office, first day as an intern or your first date with your first crush........

Infact if you are a daughter or son of a defence officer u may have had to face several first dayz as a school kid.......... well i did atlest......
As a kid, mom sayz i had cried like crazy when i had taken my first step to kindergarden. Give it a thought.........
.............how much scary these first dayz are when every one is lost and confused on this day........ arnt we??????????

Every time my dad got transferred to a new place it was one hell of a problem... I was alwayz apprehensive about my first day..... like when we got transferred from Mumbai to Vizag.... i had no idea that i would have had to wear Salwar kameez........ and so when i went to school........ i was this odd one out standing straight in front of the prayer line singing "Asto Ma Sat Gamaya".... the all time favorite Kendriya Vidyalaya prayer......... and the guyz staring at my legs............ grrrrr!!! so irritating...........
Moreover.......newz spread like fire that a new gal had arrived and therefore the whole day girls from the other class kept studying me top to bottom, some made faces and some smilying introduced themselves.............. the whole day went in introductions , all lost and confused and upset as to how will i cope up with all the studies and newfriends and the new place.....

oh ya...how can i forget my one more first day experience... only the difference here was that i was forcefully made to experience it......
well, my friend had a net friend and so they had decided to meet.... and so we all four friends followed..... now my friend asked me to go as her and talk.....and i reluctantly agreed while they watched and enjoyed............
god....!!!! what a disastor.........
he looked so uncle types with a moustache and a wig i guess , moreover a lier......... pretended to be a final year student at one of the posh college in kol.......... anywayz.... finally when i couldnt take it... i said to him point blank....... "dont you think you look like an uncle to be in final yr"..... left the half coke and came out......

Any first day at any place.... you are always lost and confused no matter what........ one common feeling,( incase if its a first day at school or office) would be....... not liking anything........ the place, the people, the atmosphere.... everything seems so upsetting and u feel so disgusted.......... probably some may curse themselves( i alwayz did), for their stupid decision of this change.............

But then imagine if its a first day of your first date with your first crush....... well........ out here its totally a different feeling....... i am sure u all will agree......NOTHING LIKE IT......... some go shopping, some wanna look really sexy and beautiful, some get facials and hot oil massages done...........
As for me i never got an opportunity to go out with my crushes...so not much of an experience...... i finally went out on my first date with the the guy i have planned to live my life.... and my first date was at inox......... i had bunked college and told my mom that i would be late as there was legal aid camp ......... and we both had gone to watch" guardian"........first date is sooo special....everyone learns something new or the other.........as for us......... we learned to hold hands...

If i want i can go on and on....probably i can write a whole book on this i guess....the first day when my dad hit me coz i was unable to do my maths sums properly(still dont understand those numbers), the first day i entered hostel and all my dreams of a good hostel life got shattered......The first day i learned to walk...(i dont remember thou....i guess it must be emotional for my parents), my first proposal in 10th std ...... and i was shocked...din know what to do, or what to say...........
gosh!! moments and moments.......... more to come and i am waiting for them eagerly.........

cheerz!!!!!!!!

BHUTAN


hii there...... i visited bhutan...... in the cold cold month of jan 2008........thou i found leh a tousand times beautiful but then it'l be wrong on my part...... if i compare natures beauty....... a country where govt offices to houses to shops.... everything looks like a monastry............the highway connecting phunsholing to thimpu is around 170 kms and the road is really bad.... very prone to land slides.......... people are extremely helpful and look extremely cute with their tradional dress.... Gho for men and kira for girls..... things are extremely costly so don even imagine of buying stuff....... like we have ganga and yamuna.... there they have river MA CHU and PA CHU...... the king has 4 wives and when we had visited.... bhutan was on the verge of becoming a democratic country.....but i must say the young king was extremely handsome........
Indian Army and Border Roads organisation are an imp part of bhutan.........
if you want to know more .........i suggest u pack your sacks and hit the road to thimpu......... for the time being...enjoy the pics..........

CHANGING TIMES!!!!

Hii there!!!

was wondering...... is a "CHANGE" really a necessity in our lives???? and does this change take place naturally ????? or do we actually put in efforts with full strength to change it..................

well!! i am talking abt.......... "change" that keeps taking place constantly in our lives................... in terms of.......... the way we think, the way we talk, the way we dress, .......... the way we do all our other things in our daily lives consciously or sub-consciously......... the way we really are..................

as for me, change started happening at a very early age............. reason being....... my dad!!!!....... yup!! he was in the armed forces........... to be precise...... the Indian Navy.....
So being a daughter of a navy man was not at all easy ..........thou i must admit, .......... thank god!!!!!!!......... i had a defence upbringing.......

Naval life is all about transfers to the best places......... so that means......................... atleast for 2 years ur happily settled in one school.............. (or may be not)............... and then...........suddenly like a dream........... the next day u may find urself, sitting and studying, with a bunch of whole new faces, in a new school and a new place.................. by the way..... (i've changed about 10 schools..................)

so therefore......... i never actually knew that how many years or months was i gonna study in a school, when every time my dad got transferred to a new place and i got admitted to a new school .

But then i am not complaining......

Thou when i look back .... i kinda found it extremely irritating at that point of time.......... coz being a kid..... i did not understand ............... that.........all the sudden change in friends, in school, change in place and people around, change in neighbours........etc ............. was actually contributing to the personality i am today...............

Another major change happened when........ after completing my primary level in a Convent school i was packed and shifted to Kendriya Vidyalaya's............
(let me tell u........it was a complete shocking heart attack !!!!!!!!!!! .................and one more thing ........................ this generally happens with all defence kids!!!!!!!! )

Imagine after studying in a proper all girlzzz school.... where primary teachers wore only skirts or long frocks with tic-tac shoes and red lipstick.......where, english was the only language of conversation among friends and teachers.................., where, beautiful young nuns taught us about jesus christ and moral studies...... and also encouraged us to visit the church everyday and sprinkle the holy water over our little heads, where christmas was celebrated and cute kids like us were made to sing christmas carols,........ and most importantly...... where our skirts or frocks were alwayz above the knees (ha!!ha!!) .......... ...............

WAS SHIFTED TO A SCHOOL............

with broken chairs...... (which were later changed!!!! thank god!!)...., plumpy teachers who wore only and only saaris with a huge bindi , totally hindi speaking crowd except for a few and ofcourse our english teacher , hindi morning prayers , only patriotic songs sung with harmonium being played in the background and not piano...... which only happened in convent when we sung carols , .................from short skirts i was made to wear salwar kameez!!!! and
oh!! ya!! and how can i forget the biggest SHOCK..... i was now studying in a co- educational school...... ya!! i was studying with BOYZ!!!!!


used to hate those guyz so much, they eat our tiffins without even asking, drank all our water, and as if teasing was in their blood......... god!! can't even remember how many guyz i was paired with ..........,

but then i guess........... that change was fun ......... and was needed too.......
infact today some of my best friends r from the opposite sex!!!!!
Thanks for being there alwayz............. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

and ya!!before i forget one imp thing.................... kendriya vidyalaya's arn't that bad..... spent quite a lot of time there................. no wonder most of the IIT's and REC's are from this school................. K.V's rock!!!!!


Another change happened when .......after completing school.......... i landed in Allahabad to study agriculture technology............. guess what............. Hostel life...... and then ofcourse Ragging................ aaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!! i ran out of that college, that place, that course within a month................ and joined law......... today i am a happy lawyer........
but then that one month showed me how tough things get when u have to live alone.......



u know what...... guess i shud end here...... coz this space may get too small if i start to blog down my amazing memories.............
i think change is an important part of our lives.......... and we just keep changing with times, trends and most importantly "situations"..................... and it takes place naturally!!!............
..................... just that sometimes adapting to the new sudden changes in our lives.............................. gets a little tough!!!!

what do u think guyz!!!???????/


take care!!

THANKS TO OUR DRIVER............ HIS NAME WAS "NAMCHUK" ........WHO DROVE US TO THESE PLACES..........

GUYZ!! IF U GET A CHANCE DO VISIT IT........ ITS MINDBLOWINGLY AMAZING!!!!

IN THE MEANTIME ENJOY THESE PICTURES......................

TAKE CARE ;-)

GIVE THE WOMEN SOME AIR TO BREATHE???????????????????

hii there!!

Thou i am not much of a T.V person.........but then sometimes i do catch up on some movies and ofcourse the newz.
But then.................................................................................................

Yesterday during lunch time......while i was busy lunching.........( god!!our t.v is near the dining table......so irritating!!!!!!!!!)............... and my mom was busy with her daily soaps........ i noticed that the RECOVA , Ageing Cream ad, appeared in almost all the commercial breaks............... and then followed the FAIR and LOVELY ........... the Mens Fairness Cream ad..........................

and so a thot struck me...............guess!! thats why i am here writing this blog............

...................... do we find Ageing Cream ads for MEN on T.V?????????????????????????........................... i don't think so........... atlest i havent seen one......... so why, its alwayz, the eve, who has to look sexy , fair, beautiful and young even if she's in her 40's........????????????????????????????
i am not against looking good and feeling sexy............. but r looks the most important thing in a women............. hey!!u men out there......... give her some air to breathe....................
u want the women to be a super women or what??????????????? u want her to work(obviously she shud be professionally and financially independent)....., take care of u, ur home, ur kids, cook for u, ur friends, ur relatives, be absolutely rocking when it comes to ur personal life (u know what i mean)...............and at the same time, look gorgeous, sexy............................. which she tries to be to............ her level best

Why do these ads ,.......... picture....... that the husbands start looking elsewhere once their wives reach the age of 30............ and then assure that such miracle creams would revive back the romance in their relationship??????????

Do u really think romance revives back by just looking.... good, fair, beautiful, sexy?????????........ then what about the other qualities guyz????????????????

god!!! give me a break...................................

i guess............. we shud tell , those ad directors.......... that it can happen even in the case of women too.......... and its high time............. they find a remedy for the men too.............

Wonder why are the creams meant only for women................?????????? Where r the men in this segment?????????

Why do the women have to spend thousands and thousands to take those BOTOX Injections ( r they painful???????? got no idea on that.......... actually i havn't reached that age to get them......................and i won't too.........) just to look great............



Today women r at par with men in every field............... infact i think they r better than their counterparts........... i guess...................... thats why............
there r products like the Fairness Creams exclusively for MEN that have been launched in the market............... coz i guess men too have started feeling insecure..................... what do u think guyz........?????????

Infact i seriously appreciate................ an ad of some fairness cream where they show ........a typical indian before marriage background............where the girl (wishing to be a bride soon) visiting the boy's (preferred to be the apt groom) house and the boy entertains her with his music................ and only after listening to him,........... she agrees to be his wife..........

where normally in the indian culture its alwayz the other way round..................... but then i guess.............. that day is not far off...........
when the above ad will become a reality.................

but then this will only happen if only ladies like us............. STOP............. doing things according to the wishes of our husbands and boyfriends......... just to win them back........by looking good ha!! ha!! ha!!............... and more importantly by using those creams............ instead why not make them use it..................

what say ladies?????????
