Don't let the title of this blog distract you ! It's not as it sounds! this is about how much i enjoy getting drunk while listening to good ol' fashion rock!as most of you'll know i'm an avid fan of the good ol glam metal A.K.A the good ol days of the hairbands of the 80's. This holi i just got what i always wanted all my holi playing career!..A bunch of beer drinkin,hairband wearin,guys from down south playin holi how its meant to be played..with lots of beer,good music and a rockin crowd! I am generally never the type to gel in a new group of people immediately..but wen beer is involved..things suddenly change and im not that shy and silent anymore!
As a strict rule which i follow every year i don't drink on holi ,but this year the lure of deadly color's,dirty water of juhu beach and of course my good ol fren and his pals ..500ml cans of kingfisher drought beer wer calling out to me..and like all frail human beings gave into the temptation!and i'm glad i did..coz i utterly and thoroughly enjoyed it !!!
This point on i am telling u wat my sober on that day pal durgesh told me ..
He said he saw a completely new side of me that dat..usually wen im drunk i yell profanities ot my pals or talk crazy like all drunkards..but this day for some reason i was laughing..yes laughing in an un controllable mad man type laughter which i vaguely remember doing..and that's not it!..he said i was laughing all the way from Powai till we reached Andheri!!can u beat that!..he also added that after my entertaining state that day i also thot i was burn proof..coz i did burn myself on my bike silencer somehow but i did continue laughing!!! alcohol and mix of okayish music and rocking crowd somehow makes me forget how entertaining i can be!i wish i cud always be like that!!
The very same evening wen i was in total control of my senses i remember i did manage to embarrass 1 other person other than me..i did gave my newly wed fren and her husband a sight to remember..of course Ritu has seen me in this sate before but now her husband know all these years his darling wife was indeed in really really safe drunk hands!!
Also i take this opportunity to thank my pal Swaroop & Co for sponsoring all the beer that day ..but moreover i thank them for i got my revenge on my dear pal durgesh on the following Saturday coz they made him feel how i have been feeling all this years wen i sit in his car..utterly and totally hopelessly lost and nauseous (sorry durgesh!!)
Cheers!!
I have been very happy these days...and the reason i have been feeling so is bcoz my dear pal Ritu had come back to town after her grand lavish wedding!(i am still pissed at her for getting married so soon but thats a different story)..the biggest thing is she is very happy and she is happy i am happy.
i have had a lot of good memories with Ritu as a pal who has been so very understanding and caring and i consider myself very lucky to have had her by my side as a pal all this time.
she has changed my life in many ways she is the one who got me and still gets a stupid individual like me..but hey!this aint about her!this is about a girl a very pretty lookin girl who i met coz of her.
i wud be simply lying if i said that im not her fan!
she is perhaps one of the most sweetest persons i have ever met.. besides Ritu of course!
and i can bet that she is one in a billion..in fact truly unique!
she is the most beautiful girls i know..and i can brag about that proudly
the very first day i saw her i was awestruck!that pretty face with sharp features,the long silky hair ..any guy whud be bowled over!
Ritu told me she was her bud Shagufta..wow! i said to myself AND I HAD NUTTIN ELSE TO SAY COZ I WAS STRAPPED 4 WORDS!i told Ritu to that "man ur pal is a real looker" and a host of other real flattering comments..which i later found out ritu gladly passed on to her ..cud der be anymore embarrassing!?
but as luck had it ..i one day finally got to meet her!man was i exited!!most ppl say beauty is only skin deep..i bet that wudnt say that if the met her..she is only of the most bubbly and full of life persons i have met till date and i challenge anyone to prove me wrong!
i still rember the day wen ..at Ritus bday how she managed to embarrass us all...but that was the most happy embarrassment i ever faced and i wud gladly go thru it again!!!!
i always love to see her and see her yap on and on about anything,i so wish there wer more girls like her in my life or college..then my life wud be truly heaven!till then i have the pleasure of calling her my pal.
even though she put me up to writing this..i dun have any complaints,i can only complaint to myself why din i do this before.
now by reading this most wud come to a conclusion that i am truly,madly and deeply in love with her! to be really honest even if i wer i can say honestly that she wud never go out with a guy like me and i wud add further that she wud be way too good for nuttin guy like me!+ we wud be the oddest couple ever !
i can say the only honest thing i can say is that ..i am a true admirer of this female and her charm and charisma!!!
may u always keep on spreading the infectious happiness and madness that u spread through ur life!
P.S:i will always be ur admirer my dear like it not(i bet u really like it huh?)
Recently..i had the opportunity to attend my first catholic wedding..YES! i was invited i have the invitation card to prove it. I'm not much of a wedding person but on this one i had to be physically present as it was my dear friend Tina's brothers wedding. i have attend my share of Hindu weddings and i have to be honest we south-indian people have the most boring wedding around..i mean its really really boring just thinking of this fact dosent makes be not wanna marry! whilst i was thinking how sad a wedding function my people have, i almost played with the idea of converting to catholicism!! So as i was cursing my religion i got the idea about this blog (MIND U THIS IS TO BE TAKEN IN THE LIGHTEST POSSIBLE MANNER AND I HAVE NO INTENTION OF BASHING ANY RELIGIOUS SENTIMENTS INCLUDING MINE .) NOW that i have got the shiv-Sena and the VHP off my back let me proceed without guilt
wedding type:
catholic:
the best kind there is..its got everything a guy wud want!good food,free booze,rocking music and yes pretty women everwere u see!no wonder these ppl look so happy on their wedding day!did i mention der is free booze and pretty women ?
the Punjabi wedding:
the best kind Hindu's have to offer!food so good that ur next 20 generation will be born with cholesterol problems!the pretty women dressed and made up so heavily that one may feel the of being a part of an Ekta Kapoor soap,fat balding men everywhere u lay ur eyes on!,hot garma garam family gossip that will make a paparazzi feel ashamed and music that will even make a deaf guy more deaf! yes its got et all! The
Muslim wedding:
you have to be in this one just for the sake of witnessing something which one rarely gets to witness in this day and age.it is beautiful and royal at the same time..other form of weddings have changed but this one maintains its heritage till date.the food is awe sum,the whole script of the wedding is wonderful and not to mention u also get to share a huge dinner plate with 10 other people!wats in it not to love?
The south-Indian:
ah!the mother of all boring bashes!i have witnessed a million of these in this life time,yet it dosent stop following me!loud erratic music which no one gets,old folks coming up to you and telling you "my how tall u have become!",badly dressed up and i mean really really badly dressed up people in ther 10 ton silk saris,food so bland and tasteless u'll crave for the hospital food frm the last time u wer admitted!and yes the masterpiece(at least for people like me)"which engg/medical college beta?" did some say marriages are made in heaven??
"Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green
And the girls are pretty
Take me home Oh, won't you please take me home"most guns and roses fans may have heard this song thousands of time..even i have..and i love this song totally
All their lives people search for their paradise city..they move to pune,lonavala,virar etc etc
but i found mine...and it wasn't a new place,it was a place i had been to many times before but never really took the time out to appreciate the beauty of the city
Bangalore or Benagaluuru as they call it now is just like any other metro in this country..so wat make is any different than the city of Mumbai we all so love?
well for starters its called BANGALORE its not called MUMBAI..we mumbai ppl are so used to pointing fingers at the authorities that we forget that we ourself are the root cause of all problems in the city..let me illustrate
when i landed in Bangalore i was so amazed to see clean streets and by clean i don mean mumbai clean(wer all the dust and garbage is gathered by the civic authorities and pushed on the side of the road or under a tree)it was really really clean all the time i was traveling i din feel like throwing the cigarette butt on the street coz i honestly din feel like littering!
i had gone to Bangalore for a a casual visit to my cousins..i really din know wat to expect from the city ..living all my life in this city(mumbai) i think has me me feel like we wer a lil superior than ppl frm the other city coz we r from the city that never sleeps
It was such a welcome change from my normal boring life..
business had just picked up and boy did it pick up !
the very second i landed i felt right at home something i had not felt all my life!
the weather was so pleasant...even at 12 noon it was so cold that i was feeling chilly even in stood under the sun!can u beat that!
the place is so neat and well organized..for instance one will never find roadside stalls or vendors occupying the side walk as it is meant for the purpose of walking exclusively !
the cops aint fat and disgusting like our trusty mumbai police!
and now my favorite part of the trip ..
people in Mumbai have this general notion that everything down south is two shades darker and unattractive and comes with a "madrasi "accent
well i have nothing to say to em coz..i don blame em..what can u expect frm a guy how takes the virar fast to his crappy job everyday and the furthest he has gone is lonavala to get some chikki's for his mamma..and the closest thing to south Indian he knows is the paan wala frm the dance bar he frequents !
Bangalore was such a welcome change wen it came to girls ..in this city one may find a lot of pretty girls but intelligent grl...well haha dats a urban legend out here!seriously, i met my sister and she had got along with her a colleague with her (pretty as she was ..i have to say she was smart as well)..it was the best cup of coffee i had ever had in my life!..and not to mention every pub/cafe/restaurant i went in..was filled with pretty smart attractive girls!gosh how i wish i wer there now..
and one other thing that makes Bangalore totally rocking...you can buy liquor from a mall and its cheaper than mumbai!!
this mix of pretty girls,clean air,cheap alcohol,clean roads..and the absence of a certain sect of people made me fall in love with the city..while on my way back i almost cried while i landed in this dreadful city!
This topic has being lingering in my head for quiet some time now..i always keep wondering that do we in any way have a choice of being who we are,of choosing wer we wanna be,of who we want to be friends with,of making our own destiny?
Some people may say that ''errr..i dunno..i mean who knows wat the future has in store for us?"
yes one may be a wuss and except this fact of life put in our head by the yash raj film co.but who died and elected yash raj and gang the pope?
i mean aren't we in charge of our own future?
hell yeah we are i say!
life is full of choices its just that u have to get off us ass and grab it by the nuts..most successful ppl did that ..its just that we have to be more smart wen it comes to us!
when i say we have the power to give our life a direction i mean it!
i have have not been the most optimistic person in life but i kinda figured this interesting lil tid bid that the only reason why i was such a negative guy was coz i was surrounded by them ..and by 'them' i mean my parents mostly(i don blame them for any thing but they wer after all the 1st ppl i got to know in my life),my friends(once again i don blame any1 in particular but i feel a few of my pals still live in the dil chahata hai scenario)and the biggest guy who gets the blame is me coz i always allowed these ppl to influence e in the way they wanted me to get influenced.
there comes a time i everyones life when he/she has to make tough choices..choices which may seem very unfair and harsh.
its a openly known and discussed fact that how self-centered i am..how i put my own goal above everybody else's..many don't like the way i am ..hell sometimes even i hate myself for the way i am..but everybody great din become great bcoz they waited for others or thot 'shud i do this? shud i trample an innocent person for my happiness?'
every one has desires in life ..one of my friends has a desire to fall in love,another one wants to life a happy life being an normal person in society,one wants to get married,one wants to be with friends all the time yes they all have choices of being the person they want to be but are they really doing anything bout it??
i don't know !and i don't care coz i have stopped caring!everybody has free advice for any1 but smart ppl who are good at it make a living out it!
i have come to terms with who i am now..i have realized that im the type of guy who can achieve anything and everything he wants to by doing it all alone!
i have wasted too much time by calling up friends who never answer the phone..and wen they do i have to take shit from them summin like 'im busy' wen in reality they are playing cricket or wasting their lives drinking i hope of forgetting their sorrows.
i have wasted too much time thinking about what happened to me in the past
now i know i have a choice ..a choice of believing in my self!
and be rest assured till date whatever i have being telling you ppl about how i will achieve everything i ever dreamed of having ..i will and that too pretty soon..coz mind is a terrible thing to waste!&as sum1 rightly wrote in a testimony that i have royal blood pumping in my vein's!
world im putting you on a notice!im here to win and win i shall!
This is exactly why i don't do public transport!
and by public transport i mean all forms of it..B.E.S.T,our trusty rail network and the horrendous monstrosity called AUTO RICKSHAWS!
i honestly pity the people of mumbai who are subject to such torture all-the -time.
for a major part of my life i have used our trusty public network of transport..but back then a minimum ride in a rik was like 7 bucks,the minimum bus fare was like 2 bucks!
wen i turned 18 i kissed all of it goodbye!coz i had my babayyy ..my sweet child my very own bike!
since then i kinda lost touch with wats been happening in the world of public transport.
all these years like the brat I am I have been assigning my bike servicing needs to my dad's faithful staff..but today since i had nothing better to do I decided to go and deliver my baby to the spa myself!
i got up in the morning dressed up and set off to the bike shop and delivered him me precioussss i got the works for my baby and i was told by the grease monkey at the service center that I WOULD GET A CALL FROM THEM AT 7 P.M
AT 7.15 I CALLED UP THE SHOP AND THEY SAID MY BABY WAS READY AND I CUD PICK HER UP ...
now since i had no bike and i hate traveling in a rik i got into a slightly packed BEST bus .i was thinking 'hey this ain dat bad'..but my was i wrong bout it..
the place wer i was gonna go to was on the west of andheri so bus was the cheapest option i cud think of and afford at the time..i rarely ever use to notice the horrible traffic of this city on my bike ..coz im a good rider and can cut thru traffic at various speed like a German cutting knife!
but today i noticed how bad the traffic in this godforsaken town is!40 mins onboard a bus to reach a place which barely takes 15 mins on a normal day.. i was pissed and decided to go on foot! ok 1 more thing i never notice wen on bike is how i so mercilessly honk at pedestrians till the move outta my way..today the hunter became the hunted!dats all i have to say and yeah i was wearing my new shoes today and the shoe bite i got on both of my lil toes din make things happy for me either!
as i was walkin down a road very seldom taken by me(READ :ANDHERI STATION)i noticed the endless sea of people coming from all direction..a sea of sweaty,smelly,dirty people i don know for some reason kept bumping onto me!and ther was this MOFO who aimed for my SWATCH grr i cud have killed him for dat!
sweaty,thirsty,shoe bitten i reached or rather stumbled or dragged myself i hopes of reunion with my baby..to the darn bike shop just TO FIND IT SHUT!(coz sum1 from the grease pit forgot to mention the shops shuts its gates at 8 fickin pm!)
seeing the lock on the gates i started banging and kicking on it and at the same time shouting at the security guard and bitched how these fuktards at the service center wer unqualified to do a job which any guy with an I.Q OF 15 CUD DO!
broken and shattered i started walking back toward home coz i cud not find a empty bus ..at one point i was so desperate to sit dat i actually started to hunt for a rik!(yes i know im a sell out!)
but surprise surprise the rickshaw lobby got to me!they wer not willing to give me a ride ..even to hell wer all of em r gonna end up!as i was dragging myself to god knows wer i relied n the last option..which meant pussying outt and calling my dad's staff and asking em to pick me up from wer i was stranded..and yes i did bitch out and called for help..but apparentlythe new kid who rides my old bike is quiet a evel kanivel and made me beg to sweet lord for mercy!eyes sthu i decided not to speak a work and accept my death today..but sum1 up der really hates me so he decided to keep me here and watch me in full misery and agony!
god bless the public transport system in this city..coz after today only you people are gonna be using it!
