Random Holiday Post!!!

Holidays are turning out to be a real bummer. My parents are out of station and just when i thought of having a PAAARTY!! I find out that all my friends are out of station too. And just when I decided to spend my holidays chatting.....alas!!( I love this word bahut essays mein use kiya hai isko) my windows corrupted. So no one to chat to and no one to talk to.
So all I get to do is sit at home and watch films...I saw love and the bullet and I'll watch Jeepers Creepers 2 tonight for the 5th time.
So I was reading the newspaper today and it was filled with articles on moral policing and some stupid operation majnu stuff. So basically we have cops in Meerut bashing up couples for expressing love in public. Bhaiyya karte hain toh karne do tujhe kya khujli mach rahi hai!!! Cmon till its within the limit a little bit of kissing and hugging never hurt anyone. If the police is so much against public display of affections and want to bash up those lovebirds then I would really like to invite them to our school..maarte maarte thak jaenge.
Speaking of public display of love how come all of Emran Hashmi's films look the same...him being a Dj...smooching, making love and stuff. Damn didn't even let an actress as sweet as Diya Mirza act alongside him without smooching her. And how come Mahesh Bhatt ruins every song ever sang by Pakistani bands by remixing them..strong reference to zehreeli raatein and kalyug's aadat.
26th, boxing day, also marked the 1st anniversary of the terrible tsunami that devastated the lives and homes of millions. Its nature's fury its way of taking revenge. Nothing can be done about it except praying for the victims. But God save us all. The world is already riddled with so many problems and we don't need more.......
Getting back to how I started this post, yaar I am bored plzzz call kar diya karo coz this loneliness kills......
So a belated merry X-mas and a Happy new year. May God bless you all and fill that empty skull of yours with some brains.

I Wanna Be Lonely No More!!!

"Do you ever think about death?" I was in my coaching class sitting next to Aditya and listening to our sir going on and on when he suddenly asked me this." Yeh tujhe kya hua, anything wrong?"." Nahi yaar I was just asking if you ever think about death coz sometimes I do and then I get all worked up.....I don't wanna die alone."
Yes dude I do think about death. Death and loneliness my 2 greatest fears. Fear of losing my loved ones and fear of having no one to turn to. Its one of those days when you are in a pensive mood and your mom tells you that one of her friend has died due to some ailment and then dad comes home and tells you that his colleague's teenage son has died due to leukemia, that really set you thinking on how unpredictable life can be. Its when your best friend, a guy you have known since you were in prep, tells you that he will soon be shifting to Bangalore and leaves you all alone and friendless, that you realize that its only you in the end and no one will always be there for you to take you through this journey we call life.
Do we even know what the future has in store for us?!!
Will our family be always there to love and support us?!!
Will our friends be there with us through thick and thin?!!
These are questions that can never be answered.........................
So what exactly do I mean by writing this post! My aim isn't to disturb or depress you its just to make you realize the transitory nature of our existence. What there is today might not be there tomorrow and in this scenario there is only one thing left to do.
ENJOY LIFE
Enjoy each moment as it comes. Enjoy the time you spend with your family, with your friends, in school and even during studies. Enjoy every bit of it. Quoting SRK from his movie-
" Hasso, Jiyo, Muskurao kya pata Kal Ho Na Ho"

XI-M's Mourning Assembly!!!

The spelling mistake in the title is intentional and not an outcome of my poor english...
The assembly - not what I would describe as perfect far from it but on the bright side no one threw anything at us. The topic was Ad-Mad which was basically about how crappy advertisments rule the idiot box. Now the content could have been made more interesting but what more do you expect out of 4 days of practice.
It was freezing in the morning and I was hoping and fervently praying to God to give my nose the courage to resist sneezing and my throat to resist coughing. Being one of the compere we first made sure that everything was in order. We checked with Bhattu and Divij- who played the airtel music- to see if they had got everything in place. Bhattu's confidence with which he said that my guitaring will rock would have made Jimi Hendrix nervous. Then we had Kriti, Nikita and Prantika telling me for the hundreth time not to start laughing when I was to say mike testing 123 which was actually a cue for them to start the benadryl song (man how can you resist laughing at some song as stupid as this!!). So I managed to get through this 123 part alright though there was this moment when they didn't start off in time because they were having problems reaching the mike. Then Manvi recited a self composed poem which went off well( she got a cash price of Rs.1000 for it). Now when the instrumentals actually began and we heard Mr. Hendrix in action my first impulse was to jump off stage. Kriti who was co-compering had this disgusted look on her face and was like, Abey yeh kya baja rahe hain!! But thank god it was over soon.
Then comes the skit which left me with a strong feeling that I should pack off and head towards Berkina Fauso( I dunno where it is ask Manchanda) and never show my face again. It wasn't that bad but nevermind it reminds me of those days spent practicing when Patwaari, me and the other guys used to hide our faces beneath the blazers whenever the skit was being practiced in the OAT in full public view. As for my compering...its upto you to tell mehow it was, and tell me honestly don't go overboard like Chona did today!!
Speaking of Chona, don't worry people even our section thought that she was being too lavish in her praise and we all know the reason don't we (coz of me, just kidding coz Abha Chona is our class teacher). I mean she was like this is the best section that we have and this was one of the best assemblies (which actually left us smirking). She sanctioned us a picinc to a far off place of our choice( Patwaari suggested Gorakhpur) and said that she would like us to come to tea at her place( wierd isn't it?!!) But at the end of the day it wasn't that bad after all...right?!!
Back in class this guy( dunno his name) was playing sutta on the guitar. Well the class joined in that is to say the girls did but none of us knew the lyrics. In the loud girl performance that followed, me and all all guys were looking at each other ,"bahiyya ghagra-choli pehnne ka time aa gaya hai". Girls are not what they used to be...sigh. I saw Harry Potter for the second time today coz school took us to Sangam. Nothing eventful happened except that we were standing during the II-half because kissi school ke sardaaron ne( lots of small kids all in blue turban who were screaming every 2 mins and singing bolo ta ra rara) had taken up the space( sorry people if you think I am being racist). And Akshay was having this strong inclination to have a drag( apna sutta saath laaya tha).
No test on Monday which is good considering that I don't know a word of Computers, so I'll probably take off.

A really short post!!!

As some of you must be aware that for quite some time now the basketball court had become our favourite haunt( here our implies to me and my classmates). We bunked virtually every period and used to hang out in the sports complex. But all this is about to change. My escapades nearly got me a red card yesterday. Well it was after the Monday test and me and about 10 other guys from my class decided to bunk the next 2 periods assuming them to be the maths period which we hardly ever attend. But apna bad luck hii kharab hai yaar!! Miss Sangeeta Mishra took the period and some smart ass tipped her off that people were bunking( we all know who we are talking about right Aashish;)) Well here is how the convo went after we were caught.....
SM( shouts at me): Where were you in the 3rd and the 4th period!!!
Me: Ma'am I was with Abhishek Bhatnagar..
SM(To Bhattu who was also miraculously bunking): And where were you Mr. Bhatnagar.
Bhattu: I was bunking!!
(My only sole desire then was to give him a kick in the ass)
SM:WHY MAY I ASK?!!
Bhattu: Intentionally.....
Can you believe it!!
Well then after much begging and pleading and after apologizing a 100 times and writing an apology letter we were let off( we are a superability after all;))
So after this little incident I have decided to turn over a new leaf. I will NEVER EVER bunk my classes. Not atleast for another week;)
As you must have noticed by now that we have started a class X-E blog which was our old class. So if the X-E people from my class want to join you people are most welcome and I do hope that the rest of you will comment which is an irony considering that I have to force people to comment on my present blog.....

My December- Chilly aen't it!!!

Brrrrrrrr..... Freezing isn't it. Winter has finally arrived but as Anahita points out its snowing in Chicago so I suppose we are better off. Due to some unexplained reason the month of December somehow evokes feelings of sadness in me. I suppose this is because it marks the end of another year, a year full of experiences, joys and emotions. Makes you wonder how time flies by doesn't it.....
The chilly winds makes one think about a million times before stepping out of the house. I just feel like sitting in front of the computer, listen to my favorite music and sip a hot foamy mug of coffee, which is exactly what I am doing now. Speaking of music let me fill you up with my choice of songs for this weather. Jal, man this is one amazing band. Their brand of soulful music just about soothes your nerves. Aadat, Woh Lamhe and Dil Pukaray are able to really move your heart and relax tense minds. Linkin Park-my alltime favorites- although I usually listen to their compositions when I am really angry and fuming. Their songs provide a kind of vent for the feelings, anger and emotions seated deep inside you. I always manage to find solace in their melancholy lyrics. In the End, My December, Crawling, Runaway, Numb are some of their tracks that are worth listening to. And when you feel freaky, mad and just out of your mind- Limp Bizkit is right here & so is Eminem!! Right now I am checking out the CD which Rads gave to me. Not much metal which is good considering that right now I am not much in the mood for it. Just soft and meaningful lyrics for a change.
Our assembly is approaching very soon and our respected class teacher has suggested DILEMMA as our theme. Just the word has managed to baffle the whole class. I mean what can one say about a topic that one himself is perplexed about. So if you people have any suggestions I'll be glad to hear it. But please people it should be sensible, Nikita actually suggested Harry Potter!!! Girls are soooo stupid;)..
Well I recently put forward one of my better ideas to start a class XI-M blog. Lets see how it works out... And yah please suggest a name for that too.By the way is anyone interested in starting a group blog on any topic or maybe no topic at all because then it will be a bit easier to upgrade the blog as more people will be involved.
Nothing else to blabber about so I think I'll just end this post right here.....
Adios amigos
fare ye well
