Letters to self (part of a new series)

July 27, 2008

Just finished taking mock tests for the papers, scored 82 and 80, which is good, I guess. Have my papers in the next 4 hours or so. Want to get over this measly shit and go and buy myself some new cloths, desperately need new pair of trousers and shirts, the shirt collars are coming off like cob webs, and frankly I would personally like some variety in trousers instead of the lone black trousers. Brought or is it bought, will never learn what is the right one, anyway bought couple of shorts and a tracks yesterday, pretty good ones, make me look athletic with a tummy of course… :P Drank the whole of yesterday, 2 bottles of whisky and I think right now I am having a hangover or atleast some close to it, my tongue feels as if its been replaced by cotton, and tummy is feeling woozy, but me proud, did not puke not once, and I have been waking up at 2 or 3 in the morning for the last 3 weeks, mostly for studying, studied under candles like Lincoln or whoever else it was who studied under street lights. Oh by the way there is awesome coffee guy, comes and gives off an entire flask of coffee in the night, have to pay him off course that guy also has to make a living no. There are lot of sales happening but don't know which one to go to, you know me, fucking can't handle money for my life, would have been nice if you and I went shopping like before you know, I still refuse to try out the cloths I buy, only little kids are forced to try them out in trial rooms. And don't get me started on the bomb blasts which supposedly have rocked the city filled with wimpy IT pansies mentally retarded fucks. I mean one bomb was supposed to have gone off some 500 mts from my office and another some 400 mts away from my place, I know staying and working in awesome place, anyway fucking nothing happened, they just forgot that it was not Diwali yesterday. Stupid fucks man they are seriously, no brains, no imagination, we should have some selection criteria for one to be a good terrorist you know, a) should be creative b) should be able to think on their feet c) should have innovative ideas on causing maximum destruction with minimum effort. It would have been awesome if they had used my terrorist plan, you know it, its so awesome that just by thinking about major destruction happens in some vague planet…Anyway think will go check if the newspaper is come or no then will go take another mock test before that will revise also. Man I sound like a geek. Oh by the way, I shaved, though would not consider myself as a prime exponent for Mach 3, but I don't think I look that bad also, the glasses are doing a fine job of highlighting my chocolate brown eyes which I know makes you go weak in your knees…hehehehehe…acha me go now… Boi Boi

Amul - A Short Story

Its morning again, I can hear the darned birds chirping outside, with my eyes still closed I can hear the ticking sound of the wall clock like the irritating sound of the water faucet dripping. The water faucet never drips in my house, because I don't like it dripping, like the way mom's head was dripping blood, and flooded the floor and spoiled the carpet. I like everything neat and clean. My name is Amul. I believe my father was especially fascinated by the utterly butterly delicious girl. Though I have a liking towards her myself I don't like to acknowledge that to anybody. Though not many people have actually found out about this connection. But am aware of this because my father during one of his happy drunken moods told me about this. And those are rare cases. I know for a fact that even if am genetically part of my father, I will never become like him. I study in the 7 th grade. And I like my school. My favorite subject is math. I don't understand why people...

A moment to Remember – They don’t make movies like these since 2004.

Can you recall the last movie which made you drop your defenses and your cynical view of the world and relationships? Can you recall the last movie which made you yearn for something which you knew was all reel but you hoped that it was real? Can you recall the last movie which made you invest so much in the lead characters that you forgot where you were and cried your soul out? Can you remember the last movie which made you reminiscence of a time when you truly and really believed in fairy tales? I do, well some of them anyway, couple of movies do pop in mind which might answer most of the questions I ask, ‘Jerry Maguire’, ‘Love Story’, ‘The Notebook’ and ‘50 First Dates’. But if you look at the release dates of each of these movies, Jerry Maguire – 1996, Love Story – 1970, The Notebook – 2004, 50 First Dates – 2004, it has been more than a decade since I have seen these movies.  2004, apparently seems to be the year, fairy tales for the new century were written and tra...

Happy reading... I suppose...

Hello! Been quite a while since I stared down at the blinking cursor. So here... Uploading ALL of the stories I started and left unfinished over the years (reckon some of this is from circa 2009). Not sure how long the download links will work for... So if you want to read something, reckon best to download them and then like most things in ones' refrigerator, junk them when mold begins to grow on it. NOTE: The work is not proof-read, so there will be errors, spelling mistakes, missing words among others. The Great Indian Mythology : Was supposed to be a re-telling of Mahabharat set in today's day and age in a tongue in cheek manner. But the more I read the actual original story, I realized I can't top the fuckedupness that already exists. But, I did enjoy writing few bits of it.  Will rate this 2/5. If you think what I have written is fucked up, wait till you read the actual story... Not the PG rated Amar Chitra Katha... Also points deducted because I didn'...
