News & Banter
1. Sir and I gave a nice last minute surprise to my sis on their wedding anniversary.. all day long they had been visiting family and nothing substantive had happened to celebrate their day. Sir and I planned a little surprise and just when she came out of the bathroom.. little teary-eyed (cz acc to her he had left her alone on their wedding anniversary night to go get the tyres checked from some mechanic! Totally unacceptable behaviour, according to us gals. :) He had a actually gone looking for flowers and cake and stuff..)
So well.. the moment she came out there we were.. Sir and I .. a little cake in a small plate with a burning candle...all lights switched off and two bouquets of flowers-- one from him to her and other from me to both of them..:) was a wonderful moment..and just as she saw the cake and the entire setting, I played the ever romantic Pehla Nasha..on my mobile phone. Her mood uplifted in a nanosecond and there they were..my favorite couple in the world..wishing each other and even trying their hand at ball dance!
It was a nice simple celebration.. followed by a photosession of theirs. :) Sweet and simple..
2. Diwali was as usual about diyas and loved ones with countless rounds of flash...one night we were even up till 5 am..
3. I have developed a serious allergy to dust/cement etc and this could be the reason for my bad health these past 3 months i figured out. Construction work on at full swing here..and when you can't breath easy you can hardly do anything worthwhile. Finally, I could take no more of the incessant coughing and unmanageable breathlessness at my place..so I have temporarily shifted base to Di's place for the night.
4. Panther is a darling..he proves it everyday when i take him for a run and unleash him in the park. Just as there would be considerable distance between him and me..he would slightly look up.. cock his ears as if to hear me calling him.. and then sprint towards me as full velocity so that i run ahead of him and there we go playing pakdum pakdai..! God Bless Him.
5. My exams are coming up and so is my cousin's wedding. I have to study so much that for the first time i am really afraid. This time there are two subjects that i have no interest in..ie..Taxation and Business Association.. i hope to manage the latter but for the former i have talked to my neo-CA brother..who says he could get me prepared for the subject in less than a week. I have my doubts. ;)
6. I get sad smtimes..i act like a kid smtimes and like a kid i go and admit. I did it again this week. Give me some time. I am like this only.
7. About my cousin's wedding: for the sangeet programme.. we have all decided to give a danceperformance each..now had it been a debate on the topic "should she get married?" i would have fared well both for and against the motion! but dance? phew.. i like to dance to music in parties and all where all are dancing and no one's really looking.. i do enjoy that a lot.. but performing on stage in front of people i dont even know..i have my doubts here too.
BTW to boost my confidence: I remind myself of the time when i came 3rd and won a big Nataraj trophy for my dance on "Banno re aise kyu sharmaaye" hehh... ok, the less said abt the Mithun song the better! But i really enjoyed the accolades i got that day.. my sis tells me that mum and dad were also called on the stage along with me to receive the award "Is chhoti si pyari si bachi ke parents bhi please stage par aayein..and everyone! a big round of applause for the little girl.." aah! those were the days of my stardom. :P..
Well.. now that we are talking about dancing, apart from stupid group dance on school stage, once we had gone to an Old Age Home as members of the School Rotary Interact Club. All these friends of mine (we were a group of 6 gals till 10th) .. we paired up and gave a performance on Dil Chahta Hai's "Wo ladki hai kahan" with all the flapping step and the jumping etc. :) But that was when I was very young and had little sense of i-dont-know-what-exactly. Now it seems difficult..specially cz that little nataraj-awardee never danced much after that. So what do i do? Which song and whom to pair up with me? Cz alone i CANT dance on stage. But I want to! It would be thrilling and plus I would overcome this silly fear!
8. Ok, would study a bit now. Partnership Act, it is.
