Just hope I don’t delete this like the rest of them all

Well I really am trying to write something and post it before I decide to delete it completely. So quickly let me run through the things which have been happening in this really long absence –


 

  • Started being a nice loser guy I was when I was back in school kinds, you know the one with morals, principles and all that jazz. It's hard olrite to say the least but I am trying.
  • Started talking to mum again, weirdly enough I have missed that crazy woman in my life.
  • Been practicing celibacy for the last couple of weeks. Been good now for a month, let's see how I long I can keep up with this.
  • Drastically reduced my drinking binges from daily to once / twice in a week now. Mostly on the weekends.
  • Trying now to reduce my smoking as well, but as always this is proving to be the hardest thing to do.
  • Came to terms with a gross error of judgment on my behalf.
  • Having trouble sleeping at nights, mostly because I get woken up by images of cringe inducing past.
  • Getting extremely nervous about the number of weddings I have to attend this year, mostly because it will deal with me getting dressed and meeting a lot of relatives and friends. All at once, the at once is the problem.
  • I hope I don't lose my phone this time of the year, been the trend for the last couple of years.
  • Feels weird talking to friends, suddenly things have changed and as people know I am not one to be cool with changes especially ones I don't want.
  • Saw 99, the movie… Damn good movie… brilliant really… though am thinking as to why so many movies are being made in Delhi about Delhi.
  • Chennai fucking lost the IPL, thank god otherwise would not have been able to listen to my roommate go on about the accuracy of his predictions, and me having to keep quiet when the pro-Chennai lobby goes to town distributing free upma and shit.
  • Really looking forward to a good nice vacation sometime in July. Let's hope this time things actually pan out as planned.
  • Been going on a retro hindi trip, and getting surprised and amazed at how these songs still manage to wake the filmy wannabe inside me.
  • Really need to start getting out of the house more often. Its starting to get to me now…
  • Have finally started to take my work seriously. Which is a good thing… I think… but still wish I get pushed to do better more. Can't do the whole self motivation bit, I need something to excite me and get me enthused.

Guess this should help me get somewhere with this issue I have been having with writing and deleting shit.

Ps: anybody got any bright ideas on any set routine one should follow while writing, guess could use that info somewhere.

I chanced upon your blog and found it very informative. The event blogs are striking enough to have a feel of the event, so, I would like to have a little chit-chat on your blogging interests. And even we are coming up with an event on startups on June 6th in Bangalore. So, can I have your contact details? Looking forward to hear from you.

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...

FAQs

I have no idea why, not that I am complaining but there is huge surge in the number of people who are now reading my blog. And this has been bought (or is it brought, will never really get the difference between the two) to my attention by the slew of comments, by different people, a majority of them complete strangers. And I always have the same old standard questions which keep cropping every single time whenever I see an anon comment. So just like every other great idea of mine, which seem to glow like those bulbs which I first saw in Archie comics (mostly around Dilton's head, guess that is his name, the nerdy guy, don't really remember it so well, read that when I was in 4 th grade or something, my favorite was Moose), and the idea stuck that why don't I get these questions out of my system, whether they get answered or not is totally different issue. Though I understand that the reason why people chose to be anonymous is either they are famous and want common mortals...
