Bend it like...  

Posted by Rithish

So another page added to the Bangalore diary.
As much as I try to save during the whole course of the week, the weekends turn out to be my nemesis, and I end up spending like crazy.
This saturday was no exception. Nowadays I try to restrict myself to a movie a week, and this time it was "BEND IT LIKE BECKHAM". A neat movie, which at the end leaves you with the feel good all over feeling.

The crowd was great ( it was a Saturday.. anyways ).. And I was contemplating as to watch the movie, or the crowd. But after a few minutes, the movie won.
Its all about Jessy, a punjabi girl living in Britain, who is a wiz with the football. There was one particular scene, where some guys make fun of Jessy while they are playing, and she justs bangs the ball at his...... ouch.. I cudn't resist whistling at this, and all the people around turned to look at me, the men with, "Are you a man??" look, and the women,"how uncharacteristic !!!!" look.
This is not the first time that i have been chastisised. I have been called a sexual pervert, a guy who licks from the palm of a woman, an anti-hindu, a deshadrohi, an Englishman, and even Captain Planet...

;D
The last though.... For a wholly different reason..
Its not that I support ideas or people 'cos i feel they HAVE to be supported... Its 'cos I THINK THEY ARE RIGHT..

And I did think that Jessy was right in bashing that guy............
However, let's stop it at that... I've had too many discussions and arguements about this.........
The second thought that went through my mind was about a girl in college. Anyone remember Jacqueline? That cute girl in college, who never settled for a relationship with anyone... All she had were affairs.. Her face floated in my mind, and a wistful smile came on my lips...
IF NO ONE CAN BEND A FOOTBALL LIKE BECKHAM, THEN AM SURE NO ONE CAN BEND A GUY LIKE SWEET JACQUELINE...
Whassay nitteites???
