A piece of rainbow that adds a new colour everyday!

It's been a long time since I touched the keyboard to type out the million thoughts that the brain wants to register and the heart forgets.

The brain always goes like "Write it down in your blog, do not worry about the flow, no one reads or cares anyway", but the heart is like "Just wait brain, keep it in your memory palace and she'll marinate the silly stuff with a bit of salt and pepper and then upload in her blog". And guess what, this is the sole reason for all the cobweb in my blog and there's no memory palace, not after becoming a mom.

Today marks the 85th day since our rainbow arrived and she's been painting our lives with zillion colors everyday.

My topsy turvy world has turned upside-down again and does that make my world straight?! 
Yes, when she's hurling her shy giggles with that tiny lil mouth. 
Yes, when she tries to grab my little finger and holds it tight.
Yes, when she sucks her fist hiding it with the other hand.
Yes, when she coos back when I sing 'Twinkle twinkle little star'.
Yes, when she sleep-smiles and sleep-cries. 
Yes, when she falls asleep every time in my chest.
Yes, when she farts in her sleep and wakes up crying.
Yes, when she stops crying when I hold her and everyone's like 'Look at her, she can smell her mom even from this age' and I'm suddenly a magician who can soothe my baby.

She's become granma's priority, grampa's playtoy, daddy's angel and mommy's 24*7.

Sometimes the littlest things take up the most room in your heart ❤️

We live in a special space where farts are adorable, pee is liquid gold and poop days are celebrated.

But it's not always rosy and easy. I'm gonna save all my rantings for the next post which could take forever. After all motherhood is new to me and I'm gonna be honest :)
It's exhausting and I have very limited screen time.

Till then, Sayonara.
A new show off mommy ;)

Game Over ...HANG ON !!! Its Not ..

Fooo, fooo, foooooooooo… << Thoosi thattification >>

*Lazy gal’s Dusty blog *

     Here  comes my maiden short story. Call it cheesy or whatever, Kindly bear with me till the end of the post because I’m making my debut in this so called Short Stories Series.

And now Its STORYYYY Time :

      I was getting ready for my second date. After a week’s konjals and kenjals, Nidhu finally said YES for a movie. By the way I’m Shridar and Nidharsana is my one and only girl friend literally and that too from CS, thanks to my mechanical department.

A li’l flashback :

*Rewind Rewind Rewind back to July 2011*

      Nidhu and I were just friends initially, met through a common friend. After exchanging phone numbers we became best friends with all those talking for hours and this phenomenon continued for long. And one fine day after 9 months of her ‘BEST FRIENDS’ship and my ONE SIDE LOVE suffering, I couldn’t contain myself and blurted out “Nidhu, I’m in love with you”.

      She didn’t turn pink or blush as I had expected. Instead she said “Yo’ll get a really nyce gal shri, definitely not me”. I was disappointed but I’m not the kind to give up. Even after my serial-proposals for more than 4 months, She kept singing the same old raga “Yo deserv a beta gal shri”.

      I knew that she loved me and she is a timid girl and without doubts, she was hesitant to accept my proposal because of her family. For us, No Verbal Language was needed to communicate with, or understand each other’s feelings.

      Obviously I had the charms and eventually our MECH-CS chemistry worked out. Our official commitment happened after one year and now here we are, gearing up for our second movie date.

Back to the D-Day :

      With a little bit of Fair n Handsome and an extra dose of AXE effect, my MALE MAKEUP SESSION was over and I was ready for action. I had booked tickets for a morning show, as it was apt for her GOING-TO-VARSHA’S-HOME-TO-COPY-NOTES excuse to her strict mom.

I reached the destination earlier and was waiting for her.  After 20 minutes of mobile-flipping, 3 packs of popcorn-munching, sight-seeing, seconds-counting she came.

<<Here, Kindly don’t imagine a slow motion scene with an Amala Paul like figure coming>>

      She’s just an ordinary girl who is MY Amala Paul. She always has an aura of HURRY-BURRY-AT-THE LAST-MINUTE, so no time for those heroine entry scenes.

“SORRY Shri, soooooory da, It was this bus, No actually it was me and blah blah blah....”. I couldn’t hear anything after that because I was deeply engrossed in sighting her and I could sense the feeling of kissing her cropping up in my romantic head. I couldn’t help it, after all she was my girlfriend na?? not just any friend . But it was a damn movie theatre and it was a damn clear daytime.

“Shridar CONTROL CONTROL, Its just your second date not honeymoon” I was telling this to myself and with no further delay we entered the movie hall.

The movie started and after 3 hours BOOOOOOOOOM !! the movie just ended. Except exchanging coke and popcorn nothing really happened. Ya L I actually WATCHED the damn movie with my unconditionally loving yet unromantic GF L With  each second dying, I’s suppressing my feelings throughout the movie.

<<Usually do lovers come to movie theatres to watch the movie?!?! I seriously doubt it >>

      During the intermission I asked her “Do you like the movie?”. She nodded rapidly for more than 5 seconds that her earrings made dis DING DING DING noise. It was cute. I wanted to kiss her then.

      She removed her hair band and stretched it with her lips to tie her hair again. I wanted to kiss her then.

      She was humming my favourite song loud enough for me to hear during the walking around in the mall. I wanted to kiss her then.

      “Nidhu, what if someone spots you here with me??” I asked naughtily. She smiled with a little scariness and shrugged at the same time. I wanted to kiss her then.

      She was waiting in the busstop with me and was cracking her knuckles crazily. I wanted to kiss her then.

      Finally the bus arrived and the very thing I had most wished for happened. THE  BUS WAS EMPTY :P She was really nervous to sit beside me. Whenever accidentally our  skins came into contact she became more nervous. She tried hard to maintain a gap between us and I was cursing the NH like roads in my mind. So Far No Good. <<sigh>>

      Also I was not sure if Nidhu was ready for a kiss or not. What if I returned with a slapped cheek and more to worsen what if she was not really that comfortable with me, It was just our second date, miles to go.

      Still I couldn’t wrap up her cuteness and my feelings. Just a peck on the cheek was my intention. I kept glancing at her from the side and she was actually auditing our movie expenses  at the back of the bus ticket. <<Typical wife material>>

“OK Shridar, this is your last chance, just a quick little peck on the cheek” and then there she was, “Shri duffer, You paid an extra 50 at the cash counter” and BAAAAAANG !!, a peck on the cheek turned to a kiss on the lips and I didn’t let go of her for more than 5 seconds. She came to her senses and pushed me back. I could see that she was more than a li’l startled.

The last 15 minutes travel seemed like dead slow hell .She avoided looking at me and left without a bye to add to my embarrassment L. I was back at home and I banged my head on the wall and pillow with million thoughts colliding in my mind.

“I shouldn’t have even thought of kissing her in the first place” L

“What should I do now?” L

“How about establishing any alternative defense mechanism like it was just an accident Nidhu?”

“Should I go for any sentimental sequence or turn that into a comedy?”

“Let me call a spade a spade, Yes I wanted to kiss you, after all you’re my GF and in fact soon-to-be-wife”

“No, Let me make it up to her by any other means”

I was typing a message and was deleting the same, again typed a message and sent it to the drafts and the process continued. Was she really uncomfortable?? What if she decides to call it a day?? What if she stops talking with me??

She’s the only girl who matters in my life and I love her so much. Its difficult to put together what we shared in words. It was really stupid of me. How could I behave cheaply like that. She’s been my FANTASTIC  HER always. My sweet NIDHU L

*BEEP*  *BEEP*  *BEEP*

It was a message from nidhu. “Hey I fagot to ask yo, Hw waz ma new strawberry lipbalm?? :P :P :P”

MAGIC OF A TOPPER WAND!!!

 Do you remember that Miss/Mr.SmartyPants in the class who makes everyone else look stupid??  That stupid kid who says sooooo much for one simple question like “Wats ua name?” ??  The one who says “I am totally grounded” with the saddest face ever when he/she gets 98?? << BooHoo!!! >>   The one who used to run after the teachers for the extra ‘quarter’ mark ??  The one who whispers “Yesssssss!!!” for each right answer while postmorteming the question paper after the exams??  The one who shouts out the answers for every question like it’s a race ??

You get me right ?! I mean that TOPPER KID (shabbaaa, oru valiya I came to the blog title !!) who annoys everyone and who always get the top grades.

Well, I was (underline this- ‘was’) once a topper in my class, MINUS all the geek part which I’ve mentioned.

THIRD YEAR CSE TOPPER : UMA UTHRA

Yesssss!!! I am showing off and bragging about :P This is the only thing which I can actually put scene about. Otherwise I am a VETHUVAETTU :P You can verify this with my friends !! I mean the topper crown part, not the vethuvaettu part, again its obvious anyway :P

Since I am not the nerd or geek kind, I exercised my full liberty of being a topper (read : acting like a good girl) in my entire third year and final year too. But miserably failing at times because its very difficult you know :D BETTER STAY GOOD THAN ACTING :D I knew the charms and evil spells of my TOPPER WAND by heart :P (little Hermione, but PURE EVIL :D ) << evil smile >> N

So what fun did I have???

v When my teacher asks me a question which falls under the perfect subject norm, I can kick ass. But how?!  I confuse her with all the technical words mixed with ‘is’, ‘was’, ‘that’, ‘ by’, ‘the’ and ‘ifs’ put in grammatically correct places .  What my teacher thinks – This girl knows a lot better than me !! What I think – Phewww, Thappichen da saami !! J

v  In exam papers I need not write anything relevant or related to that subject. Just my name in the front page would do wonders << wink >>. Actually I just copy paste from the 1^st internal exam for the 2^nd one. We write our internals in booklets :P J

v  My exam mantra since 3^rd year has been ‘jumbled sentences’  always. Same sentence in four different grammatical format with four different technical words appended to each sentence would easily fetch me 2 marks. J

v  When I don’t finish an assignment, the deadline gets extended to tomorrow irrespective of anyone or anything. J

v  My teachers would never believe if I facebook during our lab hours (which I often do and did a lot ). Even if I put up a status like “I am facebooking in my OS lab”, it means that Uma’s® ID has been hacked by some bastard. I don’t have a clue. J

v  Sometimes when I get caught during my daydreaming session(90 % attention to Rockstar Ranbir and 10 % attention in nodding) the scene goes like this.

Ma’m:Yes Uma,any doubt? (this is because Ranbir grabbed my 100% attention)

Me : Errrrrr, Yesssssss maaaaaaaaaam…That constant  …….

Ma’m:Yes,That’s a good question. I was just wondering, why didn’t anyone notice      that? BLAH BLAH BLAH…

Me : Naa dha questionae kekkaliyae ?!?! Anyway Mischief  Managed K

v  During my entire 5^th sememster I’d managed to finish my lunch in the 3^rd hour itself. No getting caught till date << theramasaali >>C

v  When I come late to a class, its not because I was having fun with my friends or stuffing myself with canteen puffs n chicken rolls, Its because I was discussing my doubts with the last hour’s teacher. :P J

v  When I feel drowsy and my eyelids do the butterfly kiss, its because I was sincerely preparing for my class exams that day for the whole night. My teacher would never believe that I was bitching about her & the damn exams till late night  with my friend in gmail or I was drooling over  Ranbir all night :P J

v  The list may well go on…..

But being a topper has its own cons as well << sad >> D

v  The teacher has this tendency to look at you constantly. You can neva send a text or have a chat L

v  All the damn seminars will be kattified in your head L

v  You can never close your eyes for more than a second. This is where my brilliance comes in really handy. I have mastered the art of sleeping with open eyes and with constant nodding at regular intervals J

Uffffffffffff, the post comes to an end here !!!

P.S : Comments of any sort on my ‘TOPPER AWARD’ are unwelcome !!

TAG-athon

I joined this tag race only because of  Rupert. I wanna give you 2 thanks-es and a sorry.

THANKS  1 : Thanks so much for tagging me even though we have less acquaintance, actually very very less. J

THANKS  2 : I have ONE MORE  post for my blog. Thanks again. J

SORRY : Sorry for taking around 6 days to start running, I was little busy with my project works. :P

Now I have a few rules to be copy pasted in this post. :P

Follow them or don’t but I will for Rupert ?? NO NO god?!, NOOOOOO my?!?!? GOSH NO, for someone’s sake.

       Rule#1: Put the rules on your blog.

   Rule#2: Every person tagged should tell 11 things about themselves,Answer the 11 questions asked by the one that tagged you and Tag 11 other people and ask them 11 different questions.

    Rule#3:Let the people whom you tagged know you've done so.
            Rule#4: Don't tag anyone who's been tagged before.
            Rule#5: Really do tag 11 others, don't go all ''if you want to take this tag''.

Firstly 11 random things about me :

1.    I am totally irresponsible and unorganized in almost everything but studies and projects.

2.    I can never be sad for more than 10 minutes at the least.

3.    If you become my friend, you’ll definitely find me unconditionally pranky, loving and caring.

4.    My attention span is very less in the case of boring theoretical lectures. So during most theory hours in my class I’ll just zonk out.

5.    I am a shameless snatcher when it comes to chocolates. Even if the chocolate is in the hands of a little kid, I‘ll just snatch it and put in my mouth.

6.    I’ll be always in an instant confusion when I should take a turn while driving. Be it right or left, I‘ll perfectly choose the wrong turn & I can never actually differentiate between softcopy and hardcopy in less than a minute.

7.    I hate it when someone next to me keeps texting during any conversation or chitchat.

8.   I feel extremely excited when I get a new comment in my blog.

9.    I hate power cuts interrupting my project work, my funny chitchats, my stupid commentings, my movie watchings, my sweet sleep and particularly my looooooong downloads.

10. I am incredibly insane and very playful when I am with my cousins or friends.

11.  I am easily vulnerable to believing lies and trusting strangers.

My answers to Rupert’s questions :

1.    What keeps you alive?

Of course food and oxygen. But I need that extra pinch of love and care to keep me going.

2.   What one thing have you done that you wish you never did?

I never regret my past. However, I wish I had stayed more focused during my board exams. I would have got better marks like my dad wanted. However, it was my wakeup call.

3.   What is love to you?

Once in a while, LOVE gives us a magic tale right in the middle of a dumb life but its just a temporary insanity.

4.   What is your one fantasy that you know you will never realize?

I’ve always fancied Harry Potter. I wish I were at Hogwarts even though I am clearly aware that HOGWARTS DOESN’T ACTUALLY EXIST.

5.   When did you first taste a lover’s kiss?

Lover’s kiss?!?!? Its yet to happen.I wish I could fast forward to that day.

6.   What is your favorite movie?

"The pursuit of Happyness". This movie taught me a great lesson and i cried after watching.

"Don't ever let someone tell you that you can't do something, Not even me. You got a dream.You gotta protect it. People can't do something themselves, they wanna tell you that can't do it. If you want somethin', go get it. Period"

7.   Whom do you love the most in the world? 

                        I cant just zero in on a particular person when it comes to the person i love the most. Every lovable person :)

Its my turn to have fun now…

I am not an APPATUCKER BLOGGER to tag 11 persons here. But I do wanna tag two friends.

Athi

Archana

My questions for you…

1. If a genie could grant you 3 wishes, what would they be?

2.What is your favorite sport / song?

3. What is the one thing, which you can’t live without?

4. How and when did you start blogging?

5. The inbox sms which you never wanna delete?

6. What is the craziest thing that you’ve ever done?

7. What is the special gift you’ve received from someone close to heart?

P.S :  Hoping to know them better, archana and athi J

RES(V)OLUTIONS FROM A STRICT OFFICER

       It’s the year end, 2011 is on its razor edge. As a new year dawns, the time has come to make our own ANYWAY-I-AM-NOT-GONNA-STICK-TO-IT resolutions :-P

       So let me help you revolutionize this year’s resolutions clearly on a lighter side :-D Now is the accepted time to make your regular annual good resolutions. Next week you can say bubye to them :-P 

But seriously don’t make resolutions like,

   I will reduce my FACEBOOKING time to 2 hours a day.

       You’ll give it up within your next login J

   I will stop too much of texting.

        Thanks to TRAI, free sms is cut back to 200/day (75/day in airtel. DAMN airtel. That’s another sad story. I’l save that for my next post) J

   I will stop complaining.

         Humans can never stop bitching about each other. You know that jerk?? He’s such a wimp. My roommate is a total moron. I hate my physics professor. He’s such a pain in the ass. #@!$%^*@# etc etc. This is a great stress relief technique. So do complain. J

   I will stop irritating my FB friends by storming their walls with Farmwille, Citywille, all Painwille updates :-P

         FB games make us more productive rather than being idle you know. Utilize your precious time by sitting on FB J

   I will get organized this year. I will start making TO-DO lists for every area of my life.

       I am warning you, don’t do this. Because then you’ll need a list to keep track of all those lists. J

   I will stop replying with K, LOL to my friends’ texts.

        If you resolve so, how are you supposed to show that you’re pissed off ?!?! J

   I will stop worrying about the past.

       Ofcourse,  It is now time to worry about the future J

   I will resist the urge to fascinate people with my mokka jokes.

        This is not gonna happen either. We people talk mokka, walk mokka, laugh mokka, sleep mokka. Its irresistible !!! J

   I will try to find out the reason behind me having an account on almost every social networking site which exists.

          With social networking, yo socialize, make friends, have fun, find your soul mate, be active, give your brain a little work, pay attention to other’s lives etc. Without them, you’re doomed. So exist everywhere J

   I will stick to my resolutions for more than a week.

           If you complete this mission of STICK-TO-MY-RESOLUTIONS, you must be god J

So rather make ones you keep.

12 resolutions for 2012

 Never be jealous with other’s success.

 Never compromise to do the label best.

 Recognize the many different perspectives in life.

 Turn the joy and woe into opportunity.

 Evaluate the importance of a real friend.

 Struggle for better existence and prosperity.

 Don’t blame others, but be self analytical.

 Stand by your love, come what may.

 Always maintain positive attitude.

 Get experience from every happenings.

 Stop worrying about things that don’t worry about you.

 Don’t bother about NY’s resolutions and sticking with it ever.

Finally CHEERS to a new year and another chance for us to get it right J RESOLUTIONS provide you the oppurtunity  to dream big and act silly and nobody would think you are outta your minds J

P.S 1. May aaaaaaaaaal your troubles last less than your NEW YEAR’S RESOLUTIONS !!!  

P.S 2. The strict officer is me ?!?!

  J  J happy new year  J  J  

Forbidden Acts For the Aliens From Mars !!!

1       Don’t tell her who is hot.

WHY ???

      Actually she doesn’t care and you can notice the expression of “aama, evan periya salman khan !! you ugly piglet ”. :P

2       Don’t say your favourite brand of beer and blah blah blah even if she asks.

WHY ???

      A REAL TIME SITUATION  ( This is only for the tubelights :P I assume most guys are so, so please continue reading :P)

M  : Nope,  not  at  all.

V : Waaaat ???  Yo  dun  drink ??  Dats   weird !!

M : Jus  occasionally,  mayb  a   peg   o   something.

V :  Huh ??  Yo   mus   b   a  nerd !!?? I’ve  seen  guys  downin  bottles   of   beers   jus   lyk   dat.  Dats  cool.

V : Really ???   <<Chiiii, kudigaaran >>

M : My   favorit  brand  s   XXXX,  d  strongest  alcohol  yo  kno  and  blah   blah   blah !!

V : Hmmmmmm, cool    <<Okay now, You are busted>>

      I hope you got the answer for the ‘WHY’  from her mind voice. :P

P.S 1 : Sorry, I forgot about the V and M.

*V - Venusians

*M - Marsians

P.S 2 : Tubelight Guys :P

3       After a looooooooooooooong chat (Count the number of ‘o’s to determine the number of days that they’ve been chatting, …………………… Done counting??? Ok, now carry on reading)  don’t ask her if she has a boyfriend.

WHY ???

      If she has one, she wouldn’t be talking with you.(Except for a few exceptions :P) But that doesn’t mean you have a chance :P

4       Don’t just say “good” when she asks “Hw  do  I  luk  todae??”. Three or more adjectives would help than your blunt stupid “good” :P

WHY ???

      A girl could do with a little more of a compliment.

For Example : “Dat  mascara,  grt !!!, if  nly  luks  cud  kill”

      WOW!!, Now that is something. Bonus points if you can elaborate. May be extra XOXOXOX kedaikalaam :P

5       Don’t describe anything good about any girl especially KATRINA.

WHY ???

      You wanna hear all those honey-coated sarcasm-hidden words?? Go on then

PS : No more sweet talks or smses atleast for a day or two :P

Wanna hear her mind voice?? Here you go <<vena avalayae poi kattiko>>   

6       You wanna impress a girl?? Please don’t start with your ‘ONCE UPON A TIME’ love failure.

WHY ???

      A girl knows what’ll happen next. << adhutha proposal enaku dhaan>> Miss. SHE logged out forever :P

7       Don’t talk about your number of girlfriends to show off your ‘MANMADHAN’  tag in front of your girlfriend.

WHY ???

      Pigs dhaa pathu + girlfriends vachrukum, Singham single ah dhaa irukum. Girls obviously prefer SING(LE)AMS :P

    8   Don’t ever show off with your vetti scenes.

For example : When she says, “I  luv  Yuvan’s  music” , please don’t start like “Hmmmmmmm,  I usually  listen  to  Lady Gaga  & JB. But  Britney & Selena  are  ma  fav  yu  kno. Sometimes  its  Taylor Swift  fa me, She’s  also  gud  blah blah blah…. ”

WHY ???

      Listen to her mind voice << poduradhu ennavo ‘nandhi mark’ ah irundaalum, buildup ennavo ‘jockey’ range ku kudukudhu paaru !!!>>

Hope you got it !! :P

9     Cars and Bikes !!! Well, get a costliest one for her. But long, boring, elaborate explanations about anything on wheels ??? Definitely NO !!

WHY ???

      Girls don’t understand (atleast most girls) and they don’t give a damn about mileage or suspension or power steering or whatever. :P

10   Don’t tease your friend in front of your girlfriend.

WHY ???

       Sirichu sirichae unga friendshipla fire ah vachu koluthitu poiduvaa. After that No friends, No booze parties, No bachelor nights out , etc NOs.

11  You think this list is gonna go on?? No, It ends here :P

Final P.S : The writer (ofcourse that’s me !!) is a girl, So guys please HEED !!!
