The Chosen One.

There's something about her....


Her message, "Jaa Bhaad mein"(Get lost!) comes as I write this :


I know that no matter what, I'll get her message at least once during the day. Well, its annoying sometimes (when I eat or am playing FIFA), but if it doesn't come, I start feeling insecure. 


I suppose everyone might be having that 'someone'. My someone's quite special to me.
That someone cares for me, makes cake for me, but more importantly, loves me for who I am. 


We have the customary fights which both of us don't like, but something we both can't live without. 


We are there for each other all the time, be it the good days or the bad days. 


Had this 'someone' not come into my life, it wouldn't have made a difference. 
But now, this 'someone' is so very important to me. She means a lot lot lot to me.


She's not my Girlfriend. She's my Sister-esque friend. A friend with whom I am ME. :) 

Once upon a Time in Mumbai

I saw the British build my Mumbai.

Little did I, or for that matter, did anyone know that they were building India’s heart and soul.

I saw the First ever Local train run from Victoria Terminus to Thane.

Little did I know that the same locals were going to be Mumbai’s lifeline in the centuries to come.

I marched on with others asking the same people who built my city to leave.

At Marine Drive’s footpath, I saw him spend a few sleepless nights.

Little did I know he’d be the greatest actor Indian Cinema has ever seen.

At Azad Maidan, I saw him practise tirelessly for hours and hours every single day.

Little did I know those were his stepping stones in becoming the Greatest Batsman ever!

I waited for 2 hours to get a movie ticket at Metro.
We didn’t buy a ticket then, we earned it.

The Irani shops at SoBo let me eat wonderful cakes.

Little did I know that the Monginis’ and the Ribbons and Balloons’ would away eat much of their business.

I used to travel from Bandra to Worli everyday in 15 minutes.

Little did I know that Mumbai’s landmark has been constructed to serve the same purpose today.

I sat in the first Metro Line from Chembur to Santa Cruz and did land once at the Navi Mumbai Airport.

I saw my city make and break peoples’ lives.

I’ve lived through centuries in this city, and now I wish to quit finally. But yet, some part of me still says, “Hold on for a little while longer buddy, there’s a lot more in store for you.”

Worth it?

Watched it?

Now the small topic I debate on with myself :

Is Torres worth 50 million Pounds? Is anyone worth 50 million Pounds? Read on :

Would one have rather seen 50 million people starve a week less by investing it on them? 

Abramovich has earned the money, what have the poor starving people done to earn 'his' money? 

Again, did they have the opportunity to earn it in the first place? 

Haven't got a conclusive answer yet....

No, the 500 Rupee note still doesn't seem conclusive to me. If I've earned 500 bucks, I've got every right to spend it the way I want. 

Yes, the 500 Rupee note seems conclusive. I've earned it, but I need to realize its value......

Such is Life...

Decided finally.

Pre :

Is it cool to still have spikes or will she prefer the mafia? 

Do I leave the 1st button open? Is it cool or not?

The Blue or the Black shirt?

In or Out? 

Coffee Shop or Restaurant? 

Drive her home or select a place reasonably close to her house so you can do the 'romantic' walk post dinner?

Post: 

Did she like the food?

Was I humorous?

Was the walk awkward? Should I have dropped by car home instead?

Should we have kissed?

Really? The 'post' doesn't apply to normal guys. 

Naah! 

Tring Tring :

Bestie : Dude, how was it?

Boy : Chuck it, my pocket money for this month is over! Never going out on a date again. 

Next month : *eyes wide open*. Hey there beautiful.....

Du Hast?

1. Friends I can trust.

2. Chelsea FC.

3. Music. 

4. Pizza.

5. More Pizza. 

6. Opeth's discography.

Wondering what it means? 

"Du hast" can mean "you have," but it can also mean "you hate."

What my Daddy says about Onions

My Daddy strongest? No, certainly not. But I could agree that my Daddy is quite knowledgeable.

We're probably bored of the same old jokes of how you would've been rich today had you invested in Onions.

Now coming to the point, do the people really know the reason behind the price rise? The govt. said that the unseasonal rains caused the prices to rise. Now how can the prices rise by 300% when they said that the production of Onions was reduced by about 15%?

Warning : Read further ONLY if you wish to know the truth. Its quite boring, but a good GK topic to boast about.

Here comes the Daddy wisdom part : (Typical Daddy talks, its boring, but interesting oO)

He told me that the food prices rose to such an extent in the past 2 odd years because of something called as "Derivatives". The policy of speculation of prices was introduced into the Food Industry.

What it meant was that people could speculate on the future prices of food commodities and invest money on the people who actually owned them. This led to the sudden rise in prices of food commodities. The people who knew about this policy did make a few thousand crores! But it came at a HUGE HUGE cost, didn't it?

PS : 'They' did their job perfectly I must admit.
        They made money and covered up the story really really well. Perfectionists I must admit.
        Do I even need to mention who "They" were?
