Posted by Rithish

There is a Maverick in everyone

Naa... This is not a movie review at all.. Nor is it a take on my thoughts about it.. The whole blogger world is littered with reviews and opinions on Aamir Khan's latest giving - **Taare Zameen Par**, not needing me to add on to the pile.

This is about : how we choose not to be children, though we want to; how we choose not to be mavericks, though we want to; how we need to go to a movie and gush water through all possible rivulets to be reminded of all this, though we all know; how we all know, but choose to be ignorant.

Oh what the heck!!! Look at the cartoons.. and enjai!!!

As for all Calvin fans out there!!! Yo!!!!











credit cards. err...  

Posted by Rithish

If you have a phone, then you surely must have been at the receiving end of "saar... one credit card... if not for you, then for your wife..." calls. Over time, I have learnt how to politely end the chat with a sweet "thanks. but no thanks". But, if you think sales calls are to have fun, then you must follow what my colleague used to do.

taak and enjai !!!

Conversation 1
Caller : "Sir, You have been selected out of many people to register for our credit card"
He : "Oh really!!!That's wonderful!!! Out of how many people did I win? That's simply superb. I should go and buy a lottery. I think this is my lucky day. Thank you. Bye!!"

Everyone has a wishlist... Things that they want... Things that they want to do... "C'mon.. It's Christmas..." - they say, "Blend in..." So... Here I put down top ten things I have already seen/done, and wanna see/do again...

  1. go to Alkapuri with college friends and hear Shailu wail - "where's my white lee t-shirt and black chappals".
  2. have Kit bowled behind the legs again... A la Warnie...
  3. have a school re-union and make Shashi foot my share of the bill(again)...
  4. go to Ideals and have a Chocolate Dad, a Gadbad, a Parfait, and a Dilkush back-to-back...
  5. go to B.R. Hills and click a photo with the baby elephant.
  6. Watch 2 movies for 15 Rupees at Luis.
  7. put up dummy college exam results and flunk the class toppers in 7 papers.
  8. stand for Class X elections, and pummel the guy who didn't vote for me (had lost the election by a single vote then).
  9. go back to Class VI and draw up secret routes and maps to raid the rich jeweller's house (ohmigod... that was total total fun).
  10. go go GoA....
I wanna... I wanna.. I wanna...

I then not understanding why... paapa Diamond teacher... she my English teacher no... must be then why... she always telling that when I English speaking, that her heart bleeding... So I always saying, I English more speaking till her heart bleeding stopping, and gladness coming... then she again starting hair pulling... why I not understanding ya... till today also not understanding... she no... if she seeing this blog with full eyes, then I sure that gladness surely coming for her... she not having much hair now no paapa... but I liking Diamond teacher muchly... she no, when she sometime scolding me no ya... I looking down to Earth... there I finding her nicely painted fingernails... you know ya... her nails everyday one one colour happening ya... I sometimes not even knowing colour name... for me that only full gladness happening... I then sometimes purposelily speaking English more ya... then she scolding me and I looking down on colour colour nails... if colour good happening, then I telling friends and other childrenses also... they also English speaking and scolding eating to watch colour colour nails.. then for us all full gladness coming... told you no ya...
