Stranger on the Street..............part1

It was raining heavily.Despite of the heavy rains,Mili stood there waiting for her bus.It was already time and she knew the bus was running late.She could have hired a cab,that is,if she could afford one.She was debating with herself as to whether or not she should wait for the bus or start on foot.At any cost,she did not want to be late to the hostel fearing the gates would close and she would be forced to spend the rest of the night on the streets or return to her workplace,which she did not want.She calculated the risks and was about to take her first step when she saw the bus stop flooded with lights from the bus.

 The driver seemed to be in quite a hurry.Just as she was about to board the bus,she saw this guy staring at her from across the street.She was not new to the stares,but this stare was different.The bus honked loudly bringing back her attention to the bus and her life.She took a seat in the bus and the bus rode off at roaring speeds.

Vihaan's eyes followed her as far as they could.There was something about this girl-something about her eyes-that made Vihaan so restless,that all of a sudden he wanted to know everything about her and somehow unleash the mystery behind those eyes.Vihaan was not a very observant guy,he would hardly notice any girls.But there was something about this girl-her eyes-the pain in them-the loneliness-that his own eyes sensed immediately.

Mili put on her ipod to shake the image of the stranger on the street out of her head..............

FamiLy DraMa!!

Christmas is a family time..............so thot juz shed sum light on d oh-so-perfect familylife. Every1 has a family....
well,except 4 Batman!(Lol)..... And in simple terms,a family is a group of people,who juz stick 2u,no matter what.No matter u want dem 2 or not,dey will juz stick 2u n drag u in all the family photographs n parties....even when u dont fucking want 2!! Very frustrating..........i know!!

A family is also a group of people,whom u hav no escape 4m! Dat includes ur elder brother bullying u n flirting wid ur galfrend,ur sister blackmailing u 4 money,ur mom torturing u,sorry emotionally torturing u 2 do favors 4 her like cuming 2 family ocassions,being nice 2 aunties n doing small favors like going 2 uncle's place whenever he calls 2 format his pc,after cancelling ur date wid galfrend!

And also,the family includes the Head of the Family....The DAD! who pressurizes u2 study n get d 1st rank.....no matter what! Den get a suitable job,no matter what! Get married to a suitable girl 4m a suitable family background,no matter what! N of course b a good father n a good son,no matter what! What????

N dis individual drama just gets raised to 100 when they are all together in the living room fighting 4 d remote!!The most awkward situation arises when u are at relative's wedding and u notice a wonderful girl,ur just abt 2 strike a conversation when ur mum calls out to u by ur nickname "Chotu/Raja/Munnu etc"

Anyways,old habits die hard n d worst death is of a far-off relative whom u barely knew,and  u gota attend his funeral again screwing anoder of ur party plans......Still blood ties are blood ties.And nothing can ever replace them! So wen u are not in a position 2 do anything else with ur family,juz tune into "Hum Saath Saath Hai" nd hav a happy family time!!

15 things u can do wen ur Bored.......

Gettin BORED is one of the most Boring things to do and it is really Boring to do nothing but simply get Bored....
So here,are sum not-so-Boring ideas to beat the Boredom outa Boring day......

Cuz theres more to life than gettin Bored..... :P

1.Laze around.Listen to music.Select an artist u dont really listen to.Listen to Radio.
2.Dream Onnn....Its d best thing a human can do.Dream onnnn n onnnn n on...............
3.Draw/Sketch/Paint/Write/Dance........Do watever ur good at or even not good at.
4.Go thru ur wardrobe.Rearrange it.U myt find sumthin interesting in it.
5.Try different dresses n matching accessories.........
6.Put on the TV...Watch ur fav cartoon......Watch sum random show on a random channel.
7.Go 4a very long Bath......Sing n dance while u bath..... ;)
8.Call up a Random frend  n Gossip.lol
9.Go thru old/newspapers/magazines/books......myt find sumthin interesting......

11.try different hairstyles.........wink wink
12.Watch a movie u wudn't watch normally..........
13.Make posters for ur wardrobe/walls........
14.Go 4a Walk....dnt 4get ur music.

15.If u still cant find anything to do,SLEEP. Ur brain is tired and needs sum rest............

N d Loop continuesss......

Sum ppl hav sum spl attraction towards certain problems.Hence,they fall prey to the same problem again and again and again..............
I am one of those.

A problem magnet,as it is i am.i.e if there exists a problem within a range of 1km or even 2.............the probability of it striking me is maximum.In fact the problem is so much customized for me,that it seems to me that it was invented to strike me. Or if I may put it this way,I attract the problem desperately........
After all,whats Life without Problems,nay??

Unlike other bad lucks and diseases,the same problem will strike me again and again and again............Sumthing opposite to the Lightning striking theory which says, Lightning duznt hit the same place twice.In my case,it duz!!

Off all the ppl,runnin on  stairs,the probability of me slipping or tripping or in any way falling is maximum.And when I am running thru the same stairs n even after me being careful,The probability of me falling on those stairs is again maximum.It works like the law of attraction.sumwhat............(Dont expect me to state the law)

So if I have lost my wallet once,i'll be careful next tym,Nd i'll lose my wallet twice.
I'll be a bit more careful,Nd i'll lose my wallet the 3rd tym.......

I think i'll stop carrying a wallet...........

The G- G A P. . .

Of course i m talking about the Generation gap.

The narrow ridge between parents and children is widening day by day.Parents keep a follow up with their children till their teenage....but once they cross their sweet sixteens,they just grow out of control.Whose fault is that? Are parents not able to give their children enuf tym?? Or do kids offlate demand more space.........

And talking of space,how much space is feasible in a parent-child relationship???

I believe,its more about understanding each other,than the matter of space.Kids obviously need to develop more understanding towards their parents.But kids are kids. And more importantly parents need to understand their kids.Their needs,their problems,their point of view.

I suppose there should be more interaction between parents and children and parents should be less judgmental.If the child demands sumthin, try understanding his point of view and necessity rather than clean denial. That myt lead to giving rise to children criminals.............lol

Anyhow,by the age of 20,an individual is in a state of developing himself.These are very crucial times. Why don't sum parents understand that they are not their 5-year olds anymore.Scolding them or suppressing them will seriously not help.

What i see all around are kids doing stuff outside the knowledge of their parents.Kids will do what they have to.If u suppress them,they will do it secretly,without their parents' knowledge,but they will.The only way to stop them taking the wrong path is by talking to them,in their language,explaining them,in their terms.

Parents need to understand and adapt that having a gal/boyfrend is normal and so is having a break-up.Tyms are changing and the only way to go hand in hand with the generation is change with it.......

The BEST Ride!!

I m running late. There's heavy traffic.I run around  vehicles,tryna cross roads,reach the bus stop.In the era of inflation I avoid the thought of travelling in a rick.I reach the bus stop.The sun shines bright over my head making me sweat......sigh.

I see a fleet of buses coming my way.Its not the bus i wana board.I step back.The bus approaches me in an attacking manner as if demanding its own space like a lion roaring at me,pouncing its claws on me.I step farther back.People rush into the bus.The bus loudly pulls away.

I see another bus coming in.Its the bus i hav to board.But it duznt seem like the driver wants to take the effort of hitting the brakes to let me in.He enjoys driving the bus empty(well,almost)!
I threaten him with my false suicide attempt standing right in front of the red suicide machine.Hurray! He hits the break.*sigh* My life is saved. I run and get into it.

I go past the fat conductor who is sittin in the backseat counting dirty bills given to him by passengers. He is so occupied with his job,he doesn't even notice me.
I search for a 10 rupee note.The fare is 6 bucks.I expect him to have 4bucks change. He expects me to have 6bucks change.Oh! Humans and their expectations.Expectations always hurt.....

I call out to him once,twice,thrice.I am losing it.I yell over the roar of the bus.He spares me a lazy glance through his thick glasses and again resumes his counting business.My destination is approaching.I have to go.
He finally takes pain to get up.Lazily,walking like a hulk,he approaches me,throws a dirty look in my direction.I ignore.

I hand him the 10 rupee note.He asks for a 1 rupee coin.I search inside my bag.I find a 2 rupee coin.I hand it over to him.He examines it carefully.Learns its a 2rupee coin.Hands it back to me.Give me another of his dirty   looks.I ignore.He mutters sumthing under his breath.I ignore.Puts his hand into his bag full of coins.Brings out 2 2rupee coins. Throws them into my hand like he did a big favour giving me the ticket and I didn't deserve any bit of it and neither the change.I ignore.

I see my destination nearing.I walk to the gate.The driver glances at me.Grumbles a bit.With too much effort,hits the breaks almost throwing me out of the bus.I balance myself and get out of the bus.Thanking God for the brilliant BEST ride I just had!!

Being Woman!

Women-such an important and integral part of the society. Over centuries men have loved women,lusted them,protected them,fought over them,fought with them,abused them and molested them.

 In India women have been subject to unspeakable atrocities and injustice. Women-always considered the weaker sex,have evolved as nothing but slaves or rather entertainers to men. Men put women to slavery,prostitution and such unspeakable tortures.

Women-no matter what,were barred from education,luxury and by far an independent and just life.Widows had no place in the society.They were supposed to be killed the moment her husband died.Till centuries,der came the very prevalent female genocide.Women or rather girls were killed the moment they were born for the mere crime  of being born with the 'Y' gene.

Women going through menstruation,were considered like a curse.Where on all times,women were considered "Lakshmi" become some dark shadow while going thru periods.Not allowed to enter the kitchen,temple,or touch anything in her own house.Whats her fault??

Today,where we stand face to face with our future,the past still happens to claw on our backs. On one hand where women are pledging as prime-ministers,there are women who are still being beaten by their husbands,being burned down for dowry,getting raped,being sold,and in many cases being killed.

What has changed over years for women? I say nothing.There are places where still a woman cannot walk alone without being eve-teased or called out.Women-are a great object of desire that unfortunately leads them to brutal violence and crimes.

All these crimes against women,and we are still silent.All women are still interested in is buying jewellery and expensive saris??? Raise your voice women. You have been suppressed all these years only because you never revolted.It was due to this submissive behavior of women at those times that the entire womanhood suffers today.

Remember,if a woman can give birth to a man,she can do anything and everything a man can do.You were and are in no way less than a man.Women dont need men,Men need women.Think over it.

And as for all the men reading this,tell me what do you think women are to you??
