I wonder y ppl r so worried about finding jobs in the current recession....i mean...airtel hai na?!

The year that has been.....

Ok..so New Year is here....n my friends and I decided to do a review...sorta like how all news channels are gushing now....so here goes the year that has been...
1.started out with PS-2….apparently a period of time that changed everybody everywhere (quoting someone else) :D :D
2. acquired compulsive mailing disorder during PS, and spent evenings with the roomies- all of us speaking over the phone in different rooms
3. tried and figured out if what they say about the most number of senties get formed during PS was true
4. listened to ppl say 'I will miss pilanii....' while I was missing it a lot myself....tact people! A li'l more tact!
5. visited pilani and wondered if I would ever feel the same way about it if I went back again
6. talked about the 'days tat were' over and over and over again...I still do!
7. discussed 'future' with lots of sincerity...I mean jobs and higher studies..not marriage!
8. chanted 'reality sucks' as much as I could
9. heard gruesome accident stories not once but twice, and some other depressing/shocking stories
10. sat at home and watched movie after another while waiting for work :D
11. joined a company which has office days which should me made into a soap opera like 'Days of Our Lives'
12. still affected by compulsive mail disorder
13. went by the local train for the first time, saw sowmya master it through the year!
14. attended lots of weddings and discuss future weddings
15. started blogging out of boredom
16 started thinking about potential sentis....again out of boredom!
17. join yoga classes
18. got braces and stayed without eating proper food for 2 whole days (that's a record...really!)
19. tried to get used to meetups involving cross-state travel
20. tried and still trying to get used to 'single child' status at home

More suggestions/additions from you ppl are welcome :D

Expressions speak louder than words...

That's the title because I cannot seem to come up with words for the title but I can think of varying expressions...the closest thing I can think of in words is 'Upchhh!'
Anyways, this post is because of the gateway being sealed today. Sob sob! You will know from the previous post, how (sob) emotional this is for me. But what you don't know is I have never been on a serious dentist visit before. This is like the first time I have been under the (shudder) scalpel or whatever it's equivalent is in the dental world. See! Now you know what the big deal is...
So after arriving an hour late, the orthodontist (who looked uncannily like crazy mohan) came, smiled at me, said 'Hello' with a nice smile, then plunges some metal things into my gums between my teeeethhhh. AAAAAAAAAA!!! Dentists are pure evil man! Those cliched jokes about them are right!
So the hell-in-charge proceeds to do that some trillions of times and says 'It hurts just a little bit'
Yeah right! If it hurts him just a li'l bit, what about me! I am the one on the *ahem* operation table!! Then he inserts something on my mouth making me look like donald duck...then he goes and speaks on the phone! Must have been hell calling! And while he's doing that, the intern from hell starts staring into my mouth!
Then he takes this big injection syringe and I think omg! and close my eyes. Turns out he was just spraying stuff on my teeth. Then the intern turns on this weird blue lite and I start thinking 'Are they trying to make my teeth glow in the dark?' ...which leads me to start thinking of Ross and his glow-in-the-dark teeth, and distract myself.
Then I don;t know what happened..but I think I dozed off. When I woke up, crazy mohan said 'There you go....awesome stuff! You should look as good as new in 6 months'
I guess you are wondering why am I blogging all this..tat too like..minutes after it all got over.....I thot it would distract me from the pain.
See..now, I'm alll better :D (at least as much as I can after the dentist from hell, and a painkiller :D)
Btw, I don't think the normal :D smiley works for me anymore...I mean where are the braces?! Does anyone think :H is better now?

An Ode to the Gateway

I am currently typing this with rubberbands around certain teeth of mine (no, they aren't growing unmanageable hair..eww!). Yes, I am going to start wearing braces tomorrow. The dear gateway and I are going to be parted in a few months. Aaah the memories! Oh dear gateway, you have been with me all my life..through sickness and health, happiness and sorrow.
I will miss drinking through straws and eating lollipops in that oh-so-unique way that was possible only because of you. I will miss sticking chewing gum between the front teeth and grossing people out. I will miss showing off the '8th wonder' to the world.
OMG! What if the gateway is the source of my mokkainess (like chandler's third nipple?! ) Would it mean the end of these blogs?!
I shudder to think of it. We have very little time left to cage you, oh sweet, sweet gateway, but it's all for good (atleast that's what they say).
They say you are growing too big for me, gateway. They say pretty soon, you will gobble up the rest of my face. They made me imagine my face getting sucked into a warp of nothing, dear gateway.
I could never doubt you gateway, but it is time to let go(basically because I do not want to roam around a mundam).
Just know that no matter what happens, I still love you gateway, And I will always cherish the wonderful times we have had together.
Sighhhhh!

PS: No wise cracks about 'You are getting braces at 21? What? Are you...getting married?' shall be entertained. We thank you for your cooperation

PS reloaded: I am sorry I did not give a warning in the beginning to have you handkerchiefs ready, I know this is some strong emotional stuff

Random Memory-1

Ok, the 10th standard schoolie story goes like this:
There was this round jolly boy, very much like our cg, in our 10th std class .So, the sad tale of the round jolly boy goes like this:
Apparently, one nice bright evening when we were in the second year of college, he entered his house in the evening to find some guests. So he sits there, puts lacha, and when they leave, his dad asks him how the girl who had come was. He says, ‘umm…she seemed fine.’
Then the dad says, all calm and collected, ‘Good. Because your nichyadhartham is in 3 days.’
muhahahahaha!

The guy was down with fever for the next 2 days.
He was married in the next few weeks.
And he has a kid now.

Background Effects

So I have 15 mins left for me to start home from the office...so let me type the background story before I go.
I am the confused, new-to-the-routine-IT-life average 21 yr old who is bored out of her wits. I have been working for about 4 months now, and if my blog seems unbearably kiddish, go away.
I am still stuck in the college mindset.....you know, it seems soo unfair that we stay in college only for 4 yrs..(with the same set of people). After 4 years of giggles, fights, maida, paper, hostel politics, department politics and plain lacha for hours together with friends, sometimes sunset to sunrise, corporate life seems drab.
But I am not unfair...I know that my life is much more..umm..interesting due to the existence of certain...spice girls if you may call them.
So over the coming days, you can expect nostalgia, aimless rambles, out-of-the-ordinary office stories.
Stay tuned....
(I have always wanted to say that :D)

Finally....

After weeks of contemplating, sniggering at other people's blogs, and making a fool of myself in the office, making a fool of others and myself by my constant crapping(yet instantaneously tongue-tied or rather mind-tied when I think of what I should blog about) and months of forwarding good blogs to other vetti office going people like me and making them look like idiots, I have finally decided to start a blog.
But what do I write? I have no clueeee!
