Umm....

Umm...so apparently the whole world is getting married. I'm not exaggerating...trust me. For a while, all I could hear around me (or rather read about on facebook) was Engagements, Weddings, Maldives and *gasp* bundles of joy! I kid you not! My batchmates have started having *gasp again* JOYFUL BUNDLES! This oughto explain the recession in my blog....this and the fact the most interesting thing happening in my life right now is that I have started playing Bubble Spinner on MindJolt games, graduating from Bouncing Balls(both fine, mentally stimulating games by the way).
So after listening to 11 different sets of 'umm we are commited' and 'umm i am getting engaged' in just 3 weeks and fascinating conversations that begin with 'see my sari!' and 'the collection in crowded-tnagar-shop-with-multi-colored-boards is brilliant', I have decided: any more and I am going to the Himalayas. I am going to live in a cave. And if by any chance, you miss the wise old me, I will consider getting an Idea sim. I would also consider taking you along with me if you sign a contract that says you will not come back to the cave after a weekend and say 'ummm...so....'. Capish?

Idle Mind

Being sleepy eyed and sid-the-sloth-like, the way i usually am at the beginning, middle and end of everyday, i spotted this article in the newspaper today:

Which led me to thinking...the conclusion of which is this: I acknowledge I have the disease. But I choose to live with it. Be a role model. Like all those women you read about who have survived deadly diseases and write motivational, see-the-upside articles about it. And if the disease does get to me, I choose to die a martyr.
The brief Peep-into-vetti's-head moment is now over...you may all get back to whatever you were doing. :P

:D

Here's a quote that somehow reached me from somewhere:

Luv is- When we drink the same coconut water and just put in 2 straws.
Friendship is- when we have one coconut and one straw and say "Saniyane! Full-a kudikkaaatha!!"

Brilliant isnt it? :D

We were on a break!

Its all the symptoms all over again tho :D

Geek and Latin

Like the rest of the world right now, I too am a hugee fan of The Big Bang Theory.
And anybody who follows it as much as I do would have watched the latest episode of Sheldon getting drunk and getting geeky on jokes.
Here's one of the jokes:
So a neutron walks into a bar n asks the bartender…how much for a drink?
And the bartender says….for you…no charge!
He he he he he....i admit it...I'm geeky enough to find it funny (yes...i still remember loadsa stuff like that...any Tamilnadu stateboard student would!). So the Software professional in me made me forward it to our ever running thread of stuff and nonsense. And you know what I love about my friends? They dont just leave it at a chuckle, they tend to make conversations out of it, making anybody else who reads the whole thing wanna tear their head off. And the conclusion and questions that developed from this joke?
1. If an electron walks into the bar, will it have to give the bartender the drink?
2. Or will it hook up with a proton at the bar?
3. If does hook up with a proton, will it become neutral and get a free drink?
Does this means couples always get free stuff?
4. Wen a fast movin neutron hits a uranium atom, it splits n produces 2 elemnts ka atoms...So is the uranium like divorce?
5. Are the 2 other elements ka atoms that come as a side product, children from the marriage?
Hmmm........

Frozen

Its been a year since I posted that. Guess what I realized when I read it again today?
I'm frozen in time!
I am still bored.
I am still stuck in a rut.
I am still whiling away time till I get to go to the foodcourt and watch IPL
I am still grrrrr.
The wise soul still maintains that life is round and reminds us of it whenever she gets a chance.
But there is one interesting development though....I am even more clueless and confused about what I want with my life than I was an year ago.
Can I ever get out the circle?

Vaaya Thaandi Varuvaya

I have decided my current lifestyle is very boring...and i need a change. I am thinking of an alternate career. I am going to become....(drumroll)...a director...hey! I've tried script writing already...remember the trials and tribulations of kaaka raja?
So after much deliberation, I am going to make a movie based on a young lad...
Not just any young lad...a young lad who is in love with dosa...
Not just any dosa..masala dosa...but does the dosa love the boy back? Will it appease his taste buds..will the cook let it out the kitchen...will it upset his delicate stomach?
I wont tell you more so I dont ruin the sure-to-be-a-runaway-hit movie..but here's how the trailer is going to be...

toin toin....
dosaiya thaedita po mudiyadhu...adhu pasikanum..adhuva vayiru valikanum
poatu thaakanum..thazhakeela perata kudadhu..eppovume nalla eranganum..adhan true dosa
so actuala naa dosaiya choose panlam..adhuva manathathu...
idhan masala dosa...crispy...well done...adhu ta oru taste iruku...and yummy too

Little interruption here:
Our wise LPakki is the formulator of many theories...the most famous one being 'Life is round'..tho we did find later she'd ripped it off from Dr.(Ahem)Vijay's Vaazhkai oru Vattam...she being his number 1 fan n all (yes yes...i can understand ur horror :P)
You now go go back to reading our regularly scheduled programme...

Lpakki says: itss round and crappy

Me says: then its ur duty
Lpakki says: ?
Me says: to ride out on a tangent

Lpakki says: watss tat tangent
Lpakki says: sliding way to heaven r hell kya

Me says: a tangent is not out the circle......
Me says: heaven or hell r concentric circle to life.... ie below or abv
Me says: a tangent is jus ricocheting off ur prescribed circle (assuming each person is prescribed a circle by God)
Me says: u can always get bak to the circle coz its connectd to the circle by a point....catch my point?

Lpakki says: (yes)

I.C.TV

Not so long ago, my family on a falling sick spree. Not just catch a cold, sniff with fever sick...rush to ER, get admitted in the ICU sick.The real works.
While that sounds morose, and did feel so at that point of time, I actually did find some parts of it quite funny. How?
Setting: Night 11pm, one exhausted me has been asked to make myself comfortable in the waiting room upstairs...the 'waiting room' is a bunch of chairs with towels on them..apparently 'reservation' by people who wanted to have decent sleep.
Characters: One TV(the main character of this wonderful tale), and the hugeee(i mean in number too :P) family, the female clan of which was led by The Sornaka..the men folk led by our own chennai version of lungi clad Jake Sully
Now when this intriguing story starts, and I walk into the waiting room, there are like random 4-5 people sitting and staring at our hero, the Television while guarding their..umm..towels. And what do you think is running on TV? A Captain movie..where our dear captain is crying for his about-to-demise mother. Thats when the pissed off, tired, new-to-the-rules-of-the-room me walked upto the TV and switched it off, amidst mild murmuring. Few minutes later, something resembling a marriage party arrives...our Jake Sully among shouting
'Innnnaaaaa....adhukula off pantaaaa' at the sornaka (yess yesss....thats when i learnt the dynamics of the clan...observant aint it? :P)
To which, our sornaka replies 'Andha papa dhan off pannichu....' n points to...lo n behold...me!(ya....she called me a papa...hilarious....now move on!)
After which, some 15 odd people turn and stare at me.....thats when the raw boldness of what I had done struck me...so I did what any courageous heroine would do...turned and stared pointedly at the girl beside me while everybody stared at me :D
Well that was our intro scene...and thanks to them, my 2 day stay in the hospital was a hoot.
Their day starts with half the women folk going home to clean up the kids and stock up on large andas of biryani and flasks of kaapi n tea...while the men folk go around grunting and snorting at being woken up early by the hospital cleaning staff. The elected women folk who do stay behind start with 'Vanakam Chennai'....and move on to any random movie playing in any random channel...and how lucky I was! My cheerful mornin started off with Sharath Kumar crying for some about-to-demise family! Awesome right?
Then the women folk come and declare mealtime..and all of them would eat and makes joke about each other and beat each other up...some touching family moments! Awwwwww Yaavarum Nallam moments!
Then the Sully gang go down for their dum session..while sornaka declares 'Eiii...andha serial la andha amma ku inaachunu thenjudhaaa?' and her daughter in laws scramble to turn the channel on.
Then one of the macho men comes up and says 'Our ailing member in the ICU(!) is missing..I think they've taken him for some tests' or something of that sorts and everybody goes ooohhh and gets back to the television
Needless to say, this cycle continued...the whole fantabulous day...right till deviyani walked out of her house with ominous music in the background..and even after that, till Ramya Krishna walked out of her house wit ominous music in the background.
Oh ya..and this would be broken by occasional 'Nee yaen ma inga keera?' from the sympathetic female clan while the male clan curiously looks on.
And after being asked that question countless times, it suddenly hit me...I knew why they were there....the cable connection in their home was screwed up!

Whats new this new year?

You kno how people get these transparent plastics covers for their cell phns?
I've got them for my teeth :D
