The Softer Side of Me ..

I just noticed I got another WordPress invite … Nice to see that .. Now lemme think whose gonna be the lucky one this time ..

Edit: I just noticed that Referrers link in Manage page is missing .. Anyone tell me why ..?

How can I forget posting my favorite song ….  It brings me so many memories back …

See the stone set in your eyes
See the thorn twist in your side
I wait for you

Sleight of hand and twist of fate
On a bed of nails she makes me wait
And I wait without you

With or without you
With or without you

Through the storm we reach the shore
You give it all but I want more
And I’m waiting for you

With or without you
With or without you
I can’t live
With or without you

And you give yourself away
And you give yourself away
And you give
And you give
And you give yourself away

My hands are tied
My body bruised, she’s got me with
Nothing to win and
Nothing left to lose

And you give yourself away
And you give yourself away
And you give
And you give
And you give yourself away

With or without you
With or without you
I can’t live
With or without you

With or without you
With or without you
I can’t live
With or without you
With or without you

I was reading Elizabeth George’s “Missing Joseph” .. After a voilent scene, the woman is wondering what love is ..

I don’t know what it means to love anyone, she realized. I thought it was goodness, a wanting to share. I thought it meant like you hold out your hand and someone takes it, holds it hard, and pulls you safe from the river. You talk. You tell him bits of yourself. You say here’s where I hurt and you give it to him and he holds it and gives you where he hurts in return and you hold it and that’s how you learn to love. You lean where he’s strong. He leans where you’re strong. And there’s a joining somewhere ..  ..

I closed the book when I read it .. I somehow didnt agree to it .. Maybe because someone once told me that finding out what love is like finding out answers when you dont know the question  …

Hmmm.. I think I need a break …

Muahahah .. I was lucky enough to get approved to test the new Hotmail Beta known as Kahuna .. It looks very promising to me .. the beta have a nice simple interface which I loved ..

I reviewed it here

Now waiting for Yahoo Mail beta ..

Hahhaa .. What say ..?

Sheesh .. How on Earth they made that website.. Its more like Cartoon Network website .. All Flash driven .. Come on man .. you are a news channel ..  I tried to send feedback .. and this is what I got .. :

Today was the Grand Finale of Fame Gurukul on SET … !! As most of the people had guessed the winners are Qazi Tauqeer and Rooprekha Banerjee .. I watched the final amidst of those boring advertisements .. It was just okay show … Now I am waiting for Indian Idol 2 .. !

I supported Rex though ..

Not me of course ..!! .. A certain Kunjilal in Betul district of MP predicted that he will die today at around 3 to 4 PM. .. Its an irony that today wives take a fast of “Karva Chauth” to protect their husbands from death and misfortune .. People gathered at Kunjilal’s residence and organized “bhajan and keertan” there .. Another irony is that news channel started speculation and polls on whether he will die or not till 4 pm …

And after 4 Pm, he announced that now his life is safe as planets are now in favour of him .. What a stageshow .. It was all cooked up from start ..  .. But I didnt like attitude of the press …

I was stuck on a traffic light and cursing those .. Then I heard one of my favorite song being played in a nearby shop .. It brought me long gone memories back .. I so love this song .. :

Purani jeans aur guitar ..
Mohalle ki woh chhhat aur mere yaar ..
Woh raaton ko jaagna ..
Subaah ghar jaana kood ke deewar ..
Woh cigeratte peena gali main jaake ..
Woh karna daanton ko ghari ghari saaf …

Pahunchna college hamesha late ..
Woh kehna Sir ka “Get out from the class !”
Woh baahar jaake hamesha kehna ..
“Yahaan ka system hi hai kharaab ..!”
Woh jaake canteen main table baja ke ..
Woh gaane gaana yaaron ke saath ..
Bus yaadein yaadein reh jaati hain ..
Kuch chhoti chhoti baatein reh jaati hain ..
Bus yaadein ..
 
Woh papa ka daantna ..
Woh kehna mummy ka “Chhorein ji aap !”
“Tumhe to bus nazar aata hai
Jahaan main beta mera hi kharaab ..”
Woh dil mein sochna kar ke kuch dikha dein..
Woh karna planning roz nayi yaar ..!!
 
Larakpan ka woh pehla pyaar ..
Woh likhna haathon pe A plus R ..
Woh khidki se jhaankna ..
Woh likhna letter tumhe baar baar ..
Woh dena tohfe main sone ki baaliyaan ..
Woh lena doston se paise udhaar ..
Bus yaadein yaadein reh jaati hain ..
Kuch chhoti chhoti baatein reh jaati hain ..
Bus yaadein ..
 
Aisa yaadon ka mausam chala ..
Bhoolta hi nahin dil mera ..
Purani jeans aur guitar ..
Mohalle ki woh chhhat aur mere yaar ..
Woh raaton ko jaagna ..
Subaah ghar jaana kood ke deewar ..
Purani jeans aur guitar ..
Mohalle ki woh chhhat aur mere yaar ..
Woh raaton ko jaagna ..
Subaah ghar jaana kood ke deewar .. .

Earth wind and rain and fire …
Wealth, power, blood, desire . …
One goal to live for before we die …
One taste of glory ….
A mouthful of sky …… .
