HEELS ON THE FIELD`

We got to start shooting for our comic strips and we still haven’t arranged the costumes so today when I like a fool decided to wear high heals did we decide to go shopping, visit a few designers and stylists. Get our idea through their creative heads and get them to make it soon. And by the way the weather will be nice otherwise, maybe rain a little and be little pleasant but today that we had to go out and desperately needed a good weather how can god be nice to us. So anyways went to this designer at shahpur jat and it was three of, two girls including me (rohit, anannya and me)and the minute we entered, (firstly it was heaven thanks to the ac) we started looking at his collection dying to ask the price( obviously we dint INITIALLY, and good we dint coz whats the use) so anyways we got to a little work checked out his collection, made a few sketches ourselves to give an exact picture of what we are looking for, try out a few things and finally when we have given the measurements, decided on the style and material so we thought we must ask what the whole thing would cost us….and thank god we did coz it just wasn’t fitting in our budget and that too just the stitching cost, the material would cost us another 2000 bucks and then we count ignore the accessories whose cost we hadn’t calculated yet. So now we have got a designers ideas and ours and so we might just get the costume done by a normal tailor who has normal charges…so anyways we move out in the killing heat thinking what to do and that is exactly when miss anaannya’s stomach tells her how hungry we are and how we must forget about everything but how to get something in our tummies and it wasn’t a bad thought since we were already past our lunch hour so we found a mc Donalds closeby( thank god they have a quick service and have a branch almost everywhere ) and trust me were we hungry or what….within like 5 mins of getting our meal we were done…and then started off again, but trust me by that time we my feat were killing me specially since im just up from viral, not got enough time to recover and here I go again. But finally even though the costumes isn’t ready we got a fair idea about were to arrange it from and a plan made out so we head back to office and that’s when I finally got to remove those high (killing) heals and ahhhh (u need to see how red my feet are thanks to the long walks) well one thing I surely learnt is next time we go for shoot shopping, im gonna be in a pair of sports shoes…..

LIFE....

So I host live shows and that’s how I came across a young girl at an event…k I dint know how young she was then…anyways I meet this sweet girl who is getting married and all excited about it…so while talking to her I found out that she is 20…(a year younger than me) and so is her fiancé and both of them are in second year of college…k so the first shock hit me then…(k I wasn’t exactly shocked but surprised for sure) and they got engaged just 15 days back…so they know each other for 20 odd days (here came the second one) the guy does NOTHING…he has a family business and all that but as of now…he does nothing…(third one)… so k I asked her if she was forced into it and she said no…she was mentally prepared and has no issues…(btw she belongs to an educated rich family…or shud I say baniya family) seeing the shock on my face all she said was im from a baniya family so its like this in our families…so anyways if she has no probs then its cool…but then the next thing which came up was that she will discontinue her studies…I mean its k if u wanna get married young and all that but u are not being allowed to complete ur graduation…hello I mean in which century are u living…and even if her in-laws dint allow her, atleast the guy should have…I mean he is the so called modern guy so why cunt he try and convince his family to let her complete her studies specially since he plans to complete his graduation…n btw she does want to complete her course but all she said was at least they are letting me wear jeans…I mean hello…wearing jeans…studying further or being independent…arnt they DIFFERENT… well all I can wish for her is that she stays happy with the kind of life she has chosen for herself and sometime in life does complete her education…but then again who am I to write so much about someone I hardly know…specially since I don’t know what my future holds for me…..

A TRUE SUNDAY

K so yesterday after ages I spent a real Sunday which wasn’t planned….as most of the Sundays I was doing an event in the evening, a few meetings in the first half were also lined up. And not just that since it was my only off day from office I had an appointment with the hairdresser in the morning. So that meant I had to wake up early on a Sunday which I did and just before going for a shower I got a call saying the show has been cancelled. So I dint know whether to be happy or upset so at that time I got upset coz I had planned my day accordingly. And had cancelled other plans for the event. So I got a little angry with the agency. Showed a little attitude and told them I would charge for last minute cancellation which I would. And then later got angrier coz I had to reschedule everything. And then the lazy me got over the angry me so canceled most of my meeting postponed a few and tried sleeping. I mean I never had to try sleeping but since I have started working I just cant seem to sleep during the day. Something just dint seem right so after half an hour of trying I got up and saw some tv ordered a pizza, fought with my sister for no apparent reason but since there was not much to do, that seemed to be the best pastime ;)….and btw the tv that I watched was like after weeks…ya …and then did some packing for a trip and organized a few pending accounts and stuff like that and then finally went to the hairdresser and came back all smiles coz I love my new haircut…so that was truly a Sunday spent, now I am waiting for another such lazy day but don’t think I would value it too much if I get it to often, isn’t it??? One shunt be too greedy:)

LAKSHYA.....our lakshya

Theater is something which has been a part of my life since I can remember. In school I was a part of it and things dint change for me when I joined college…infact, when I got admission in KNC and when I was going through the prospectus later I read about all the societies active in the college and was so excided that I wanted to join all of them. But when I joined college I realized that u can only join one coz that itself takes up all ur time and demands ur complete commitment. So I gave the auditions for the dramsoc and since I was trying for street theater I had to be real loud and audible in all sides of the choupal….(yes the choupal is an intergral part of KNC…it is somewhere you would head first if you wana look for anyone.) and the theater group literally treated it as private property…(that doesn’t mean they dint like others around but they were around for sure) so the audible me got through the first round of audition and waited for the results to the final round which was to come after a day…so a days waste was something which I wasn’t ready for and nor was I sure they would take me…u knw u can never be too sure of what happens so I also gave the auditions for dance society and once I saw my name on the dramsocs final list, there I was all smiles…it is famously known as LAKSHYA and I would say that my senoiurs cunt keep a more appropriate name…our lakshya (aim) wasn’t to win (which we did quite often) but to educate, to perform on topics close to our hearts, to perform on issues which concern the society and our effort could just make a lot many people aware of what these issues actually were…we weren’t a society which were just into acting but each of us had a bond, we were not just people working together but we soon became friends. We were not seniors versus junior but a team…we were lakshya…and we always will be a part of it, even if we are no more performing…wat say gals….still rocking…

Where is your common sence???

Our country is full of beauty. I guess you just need to look around. I know that you must be thinking that it is equally dirty crowed and full of uneducated people. That is true to an extent but that doesn’t mean that we ignore the beauty or make no effort to make our surroundings better. Forget that atleast we should make an effort to not litter around or atleast not spoil monuments and public property. I know I am sounding as if im ready to give a lecture but im in no such mood. Its just that a visit to the forts made me realize that we have a great heritage but most of us just want to spoil it. I mean why would any normal human being scribble on walls of these monuments…u don’t do that at ur place, do u…I mean in that case it is understandable coz that is the way u are and no one can do anything about it. U are born to spoil things rather than do any good. And if you don’t do that to ur bed room walls then why scribble your lovers name with yours and all that…will scribbling make your love stronger or you just wana show off to ur girl friend how cool and devoted u r y making stupid hearts all over the place… I mean it is a question which will remain unanswered coz I guess people who do it themselves wunt be able to explain why they do it. K this is not it, one goes to such places to appreciate art or heritage or beauty and I mean artistic beauty but SOME just go to appreciate a different kind of beauty….girls …I mean how wela can u be… u have nothing to do in this busy scenario except for looking at the tourists. I mean im sure the nice girls wunt even bother to give u a single look forget a second look. And im also writing all this but cant do anything about it. Common sence is something that CANNOT be gifted to anyone. I mean these are basic things that you don’t need to be told. And if though there is no need, there are a number of posters which ask you not to scribble or dirty a place or guide u to a dust bin. I guess even more than education what is important is your being a decent citizen and that is the only way people will stop complaing and make an effort to make this country a lot better than what it is…so wat say…should we all start from ourselves.

am i mad or is everyone

What is wrong with the world or shud I put it like what is wrong withal THE GUYS OF THE WORLD…I mean there is seriously something wrong…either with the world or me so its beter I say the problem is with me coz it surely cant be with the whole world…u knw majority wins so…or I think somethink is wrong with people who are in any kinda relation… I wonder if there were any problems when we weren’t in a relationship…I wonder if it is necessary to have lotsa problems attached to a relationship that also gives you a lot of happiness. I wonder is it worth it to sulk for ages for 5 minutes of THAT happiness…and if it isn’t worth it then why does everyone around seem to be in a relation.
