Bye Bye Bangalore

"I'm out of town..at a friends place"
"At su's place"
"I'm in Kerela!"
For a sec..ok a day... i thought i couldn't write this post without the right pictures
I still cant write it without the pics but while i wait for the bum..

so while waiting for my opponent on the dot game..i seem to be doing a lot of waiting lately
Kerela
hmm..so fun and frolic
i miss it oh wait
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
So I'm back trying hard
The girl who woke up at 6am with jewelery on strikes a chord. Maybe hindi serials are based on reality.
And today as Vaik was playing with my teddy bears (Yes, a 20 yr old who spent quality time dressing stuffed animals) reminded me of the wind up toys at his aunts place
and that particularly pink doll whose butt matched Smita's (my fat ass boss) lol!
Then the snickers..I went out in the rain to get them..crackle..big bar..tempting..
I refuse to put up this post!!!
'crazy'..played this at the beach..then 'through glass' for syndrome..then 'creep' for loner..then 'secret garden'..which would have been effective if 'darling' hadn't been 'there'..
Its also an internship song..crazy..'she reallly did drive me crazy..I'm losing my mind..girl cos I'm going craaaaaaaazy!' I sang it with a brush in my hand bathroom style..lol
mangalore? why not? one vacation not enough? crazy!
I love his grin..helmet hatao..teeth..grin back
Vaik Bike..Vek Bake..lol..chick bake..'don't say I never got u anything'..reminds me of one tree hill..all erased now..sigh..
wait for next song
ew! stop! join cranberries community..if everybody else is doing it why cant I?
fingers ache
ice
'every street'
smt i dont know
I used to know every street here
but now home feels alone
this is what i thought when i was there too
He must know every street here
I started to recognize a few slowly
There was one that used ladies to advertise everything from lottery tickets to plastic pipes!!
Nice mallu ladies in sarees and oiled hair
Bannana chips, Tapioca chips, coconut in everything and fish
Aarushi Talwar..god..I can repeat those headlines by heart now!
another kerala song..lemon tree!
Rainy monday afternoon it was...nothing ever happens
blue blue sky..
its cloudy
the monsoons are here
another deadend
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
so i finally learnt how to hyperlink
here's smt
here's smt else
That mermaid looks unreal until u see it here! admit it!
Big time de ja vu!
I have 4043 songs in my media library..isn't that awesome?
ok this isn't at all about Kerela now lets divert
vaik has a great collection too!
I want his Oasis folder
so there are no new pictures out there
and vinay is still online?
ugh!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Finally Finally Finally!!!
Here I am!!
really this time!
poem i wrote at the beach while trying to remember the lines of chasing cars:

" When all that keeps you from sinking is the sea
You think of me
When all that keeps you from thinking is the sea
You sink in me "

Akshay syndrome little bit
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
wierd dreams:
1. on the bus back to bangalore: I'm in an auto with Akshay. I'm really sleepy. He gets off. I'm alone. The auto driver is taking me somewhere..i donno where..I freak! I'm too sleepy to argue with him..but I'm scared...
2. Mom is getting married..at least tiny wedding cards are being handed out
3. Someone is moving into Angie's place. Loius and Ambe are playing while I talk to the new owners. very sweet guy. We go upstairs (stairs are plastic and I find hangers with tiny baby clothes) The top floor is a dream closet..It has everything a girl would ever want..dresses beautiful dresses..so many..same colour...same pattern..."my wife is a ballet instructor" he says..it all makes sense..huge rooms ceiling to floor hangers with dresses..orange..purple velvet..white..in diff sizes..then i meet the son..fat round little guy...then the mom..dont expect an Indian somehow..very hospitable..did this house always have so much storage space? I wake up shortly..Angie has msged.."Can you make it on monday" "sure"
4. I'm telling someone about dream 3...akshay is at home with the whole cast of friends..we're all sleeping on one bed..he's restless..paces..lies down..becomes Joey Tribiani!...

My imagination I tell u! never mind..I need a boyfriend..Life is too lazy right now..next..Kerela is forever..
complete!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
...and I'm still writing
I forgot jeantoe..knuckle crunch..chicken coconut curry, the miranda I never managed to drink, the not-so-veg-chopsuey! the shauremas...or whatever those mayo dripping delicacies were called...the spicy prawn..the hairclip i could have bought here but insisted on buying from the ever-so-crowded store with Muktha and J-oops-i-forgot-her-name! :P The amt of stuff in that inch of a shop is equal to at least half a floor at forum! forever in you..forever in me..i'll remember darling...
There's more..for now...
Did I mention the girl with bright blue, worn-to-bed-jewelery had her fly open?
Complete!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It's been a week and I'm still writing

~Tag on the beach
~Tamasha-undone!
~silent biker
~ 9 hairpin curves
~Wayanad=Vynaid?
~Kannada-> Hindi-> English

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ok I promise this is the very last time I add to this post (She lies! she lies!-grin-copyright shar)

The rains played 'Is your watch really rainproof?' with us...
'Aaaa' down the bends with the motor off..saving expensive fuel he says
Nature's washing machine...rinse, spin, dry...

~red water
~He loves my smile
~I love his grin
~I stayed an extra day for the grin!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I'm come to terms with the fact that this post will never say what I want it to..
"Wild streak!"
"How's that working for you?"
"Today is fun (ref to drunk conference call that lasted an hr) ..There's still some guilt attatched to kerela tho..su told her mom we're going with shar and gang i should have done the same..never mind..too late now.."
"Well as long as you had fun."
"I did! I did! Aw it was gorgeous..I started to blog about it but never got to the bottom of that post (Ahem ahem)...there's so much that can't be said in words.."
"Sometimes the words are there, just not to be expressed to others."-this guy gets me!
"Hmm..maybe..the other night before i fell asleep i had those words in my head.. in complete witty sentences too! But then they disappeared.."
"Lol..You know what they say. If you don't remember it, it wasn't important enough."
"No! This was like its imp but its for u and no one else ..So dont remember it long enough to put it up where everyone can see.."
So there! It's not that I refuse to share a full fledged account of every memorable second! its just that I prefer to keep snapshots in my head...so get whatever u can outta this post (if you've managed to read the whole thing that is) and leave the rest to your imagination and my excellent memory...

you and me

Die darling die
You look better in memories
I smile when I remember
Even the sad times
I smile

The you of today melts away
The you of yesterday shines
The you I loved is blurry
The you I hated is invisible

I am fine
Just as I am
I play the songs that remind me of you
And attach new memories to them
The ones that had only you
Now have only me

You and I don't exist
You and I is a grammatical mistake
You and me against the world
It used to be

I think of you dead
It makes me wonder
Orange sky?
No
Suppu surrender team
:)
No one calls you that anymore

Idle hours in the island
I tried to tell you
You tried to show me
What was it that went unsaid?

I start dancing again
Love songs have the same drunk effect
You can't change who I am
You are saved
Undeletably saved
Saved for later?

The bar scene is pending
You're saved
The apologies are pending
You're saved

The lights go out
You're still saved
The sky falls down
You're still saved

I saved you
You saved me
You and I wont admit
I saved you
You saved me

I'm scared to count
I know you have the most
You have enough of me to break my heart
The only one

You and me
Just you and me

I sound like a lover who hates her lover
That makes me a hypocrite
All I am without you
Is who I really am
And I'm happy being that person

Monkeys paw
Dirty socks
Rain fights
Revolutions of a chair
Leatherness
Saved
Saved for later
Saved for smiles

Now I can sink
And you can sink
Songs can't sing
Oh! one last think
Red eyes blink
Who lets you think now
Now that I'm not there
Who helps you think?

What day is this..the clock never seemed so alive

Tuesday, 6 May 2008

Tears in the rain

Dreams do come true
I’m standing far away from you
We always wanted to get drunk together
Spill the deepest

I seem further away
When brothers are in arms
Your sister stands by
‘What would you do if I died tonight?
Would you cry?
Would you stand by the people I love and make them strong?’
Are the people I love the people you love?
When I tried to hate I came close to ignorance

Nothing excites me anymore
Even when it’s new
I miss the rush of blood to my head

I can sleep through the week
But I’m awake
Watching for shadows on the wall
Boo choo choo
Wish I was scared of you

Meet me by the bridge
We’ll drink our ties to death
Water will stand still
The stink of your skin
The stink of my sin

Whisper the words I don’t want to hear
Tell me it’s over
