The best part is we became very good friends and just friends.<br> I am crossing my fingers that this should not be messed up... I like their company and their banter and I am not attracted to any one of them. So i just hope that they also should feel the same.</p> <p>Though I am more friendly with the younger one that`s only because he is very carefree person and I prefer such people. It is easy to be with him as I do not have to pretend to be seriously thinking about whatever he says and we tease each other silly <img src="/img/smilies/icon_twisted.gif" alt=":>" class="middle" border="0">.</p> <p>Together we have watched India loose the cricket match to Sri Lanka <img src="/img/smilies/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" class="middle" border="0"><br> But hooray they have won the series <img src="/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif" alt=":DD" class="middle" border="0"></p> <p> <small> <a href="http://honeydew.blog.co.uk/2009/02/09/one-more-weekend-gone-5534352/#comments">Comments</a> </small> </p>http://honeydew.blog.co.uk/2009/02/09/one-more-weekend-gone-5534352/#commentshttp://honeydew.blog.co.uk/2009/01/28/imagining-india-5462096/tag:honeydew.blog.co.uk,2009-01-28:/2009/01/28/imagining-india-5462096/Wed, 28 Jan 2009 09:55:02 +0100 <p>Yesterday I was reading Imagining India written by Nandan Nilekani.<br> The author was explaining how the curse of over population was turned into a boon,<br> How India has broken the prejudice that over population is a hindrance to growth, and used this overblown population as manpower and how IT industry has grown with outsourcing....</p> <p>When I was reading this book, the fact that I am part of this so called young blood contributing to the national income was very intoxicating.<img src="/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif" alt=":DD" class="middle" border="0"><br> But then my bubble of contentment burst when I read the news about "Protecting Indian Culture"<br> There are some organisations in India who are self proclaimed gaurdians of the Indian Culture and they had beaten and mollested girls in Pubs for drinking and wearing skimpy clothes!</p> <p>My shock knew no bounds when I saw this.<br> Who said that "beating women is Indian Culture"?<br> Where is it written in Indian Culture that it is OK for guys to go to pubs but women cannot do the same.<br> They also had guts to say that they are doing this for the parents who cannot control their wards.<br> Shame on you people who can even use such words in the defense of your actions.<br> Nowadays it has become an in thing in India for such organisations to go ahead and punish(in their view) individuals saying that it is against Indian Culture.<br> They are taking Law and order in their hands and go to any lengths. And this is not becoz of protecting Indian Culture, it is for their own selfish and political reasons. They cause incovinience to normal people whenever they need some national identity.</p> <p>These people were arrested and went scot-free. The police even commented that there is no such law to punish mobs. The law can punish an individual but not a mob...</p> <p>Imagining India or Fanatic India???</p> <p>So come on, I will also form a mob to punish such selfish and fanatic organisations.

The person used to call up at midnight and then not speak at all.<br> If I ignore the call then, he would ring again n again.<br> It has become a big disturbance, for a while i put my phone on silent mode( and missed few imp calls as i could not hear them)<br> It has stopped suddenly and i thought Thank God, that i have delt it properly by ignoring those calls.</p> <p>But then after a long time I have started recieving calls again n some stupid messages also.<br> and how the hell did he get my name ???<br> I ot irritated and i thought what the heck! why should i let some sick guy annoy me...<br> But the biggest problem is police in our area are not useful they are like local goons. So i did not want to go to them for help.<br> I had also realised that blocking the caller also would not solve my problem because, I do not who that person is but they know my name and details,<br> thats when i called my friend and told him the problem...<br> He called that number and asked whose it is and also scared that guy that a case is already registered against him for harassing and that he better stop making any calls.</p> <p>I was shocked to find out that the guy was an old man who used to work near my house.<br> Seriously that guy is sick, he called from his own cell phone and thought that I would not find it out or say anything about it.<br> Anyway he called me back telling me that he did not want to irritate me just wanted to talk to me. Then I had asked him why the heck did he send those offensive messages.<br> He said someone might have messaged from his mobile phone as if i would believe it.<br> Anyway it looked as if the guy got scared but even my confidence is shaked.</p> <p>I mean i felt as if i am not safe at all in the city, it made me think about my individuality and independence.<br> May be I am wrong to think that I can live and handle life alone without any problems ...<br> Whatever!! it was a stressful experience... phew ....<img src="/img/smilies/grayno.gif" alt=":no:" class="middle" border="0"><br> and thanks to the friend who atleast voluntered to help me...</p> <p> <small> <a href="http://honeydew.blog.co.uk/2008/11/26/annoying-calls-5109724/#comments">Comments</a> </small> </p>http://honeydew.blog.co.uk/2008/11/26/annoying-calls-5109724/#commentshttp://honeydew.blog.co.uk/2008/11/24/past-is-not-past-5095636/tag:honeydew.blog.co.uk,2008-11-24:/2008/11/24/past-is-not-past-5095636/Mon, 24 Nov 2008 05:50:22 +0100 <p>I was on a shopping spree ...

I do not have place for them in my new found life.<br> I may not say that I am the happiest person on the Earth but atleast I am making an effort to stay content with what I have and I am counting my blessings. But some of my old friends think that I am still pinning for the past and not happy. They have this notion that I am away from my circle because I am unhappy and wanted to get away from them all.<br> But thats not true, I am away from them all not because I am guilty and being a coward. I am away from them all becoz I was feeling very suffocated and impatient as If I am limiting myself to others opinions.<br> This has bbeen my best decision of my life to be away from all, it gave me a new perception of life.

Rearranged it completely and the end result was worse than what it was before, left with few bruises and scratches on my legs and hands.</p> <p>So I ended up rearranging the things back again and left it in middle as my body was aching ooh<img src="/img/smilies/grayno.gif" alt=":no:" class="middle" border="0"></p> <p>I should rush back home early today to clear the mess I have made of my room. </p> <p> <small> <a href="http://honeydew.blog.co.uk/2008/07/09/aquot-beforeaquot-is-better-than-aquot-a-4423097/#comments">Comments</a> </small> </p>http://honeydew.blog.co.uk/2008/07/09/aquot-beforeaquot-is-better-than-aquot-a-4423097/#commentshttp://honeydew.blog.co.uk/2008/07/07/weekend-4414072/tag:honeydew.blog.co.uk,2008-07-07:/2008/07/07/weekend-4414072/Mon, 07 Jul 2008 09:55:54 +0200 <p>I had a not so great weekend but better than the ones I had slept for 40 hours.<br> On saturday I went to watch a film(Jaane to ya Jaane na) with my colleagues . I wont say that it is "The movie of the Year" but was OK OK. For the first 15 minutes I thought I have come to a wrong place. Its definitely for college students with crushes on their classmates blah blah. Or may be in this fast generation school students can also relate to this movie ...<br> Anyway atleast my head didnt bang after coming out of the theater.</p> <p>Sunday was little refreshing, I played BINGO!! with a 10 year old and also helped her prepare TIMETABLE chart.

All the restaurants are packed with people, not with youngsters but with families <img src="/img/smilies/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" class="middle" border="0"></p> <p>I miss those midnight walks , I miss German bakery in Koregaon Park, yummy Mayur Gujarati Thali, Walk near Osho Ashram lane, shopping in M.G. Road , Lakshmi Road and Coffee Day outlets everywhere. </p> <p>If I here Durieee sahi jayena song it just pricks at the back of my neck as if I remember that song from my last birth...<br> Whenever a new outlook mail alert beeps, my heart skips a beat, becoz it reminds me of the lonely late nights i used to spend in the office waiting for a reply from the client ... I used to wake from my catnaps becoz of those beeps.</p> <p>Sounds weird right? but that city really haunts me. May be I should pay a visit to that city to get it out of my system.</p> <p>Pune I am coming.
