we are the champions ...

24th september 2007 ... the day India won the first 20-20 world cup .. yayyy ...
in a country where cricket is much more than just a game .. its a craze.. a religion .. a faith followed by millions.. a game which a nation swears by ... it was simply amazing to watch India and Pakistan in the final game .. the two nations who share a history .. when they play its not just a game its a WAR ... and this a war INDIA won ..its going to be celebrations all the way :D
i am not a avid follower of the game but then this was a game i could'nt miss .. and it was totally worth watching .. may India have many more such wins ...
cheers to the men in blue !!!

thank you mom..

below is a poem my mom gave me .. she read it in some news paper . its really touching .. thank you mom ..

Do you know how much you mean to me ?
As you grow into what you will be .
You came from within ,from just beneath my heart
Its there you'll always be though your own life will now start.
You're growing so fast it sends me awhirl,
With misty eyes i ask , where's my little girl?
I know sometimes to you i may seem harsh and so unfair,
But one day you will see , i taught you well because i care.
The next few years will so quickly fly,
With laughter and joy ,mixed with a few tears to cry.
As you begin your growth to womanhood,
This fact you must know, you ll always be my source of pride
No matter where you go ,you must stand up tall and proud,
Within you feel no fear
For all your dreams and goals sit before you very near.
With god's love and the world by its tail
You'll always be my winner and victory will prevail.
For you this poem was written with help from above
to tell you in a rythm of your Mother's heartfelt Love !

numb...

numb is an awesome song by linkin park ... here goes the lyrics ...

'm tired of being what you want me to be
Feeling so faithless lost under the surface
Don't know what you're expecting of me
Put under the pressure of walking in your shoes
(Caught in the undertow just caught in the undertow)
Every step that I take is another mistake to you
(Caught in the undertow just caught in the undertow)

I've become so numb I can't feel you there
Become so tired so much more aware
I'm becoming this all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like you

Can't you see that you're smothering me
Holding too tightly afraid to lose control
Cause everything that you thought I would be
Has fallen apart right in front of you
(Caught in the undertow just caught in the undertow)
Every step that I take is another mistake to you
(Caught in the undertow just caught in the undertow)
And every second I waste is more than I can take

I've become so numb I can't feel you there
Become so tired so much more aware
I'm becoming this all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like you

And I know
I may end up failing too
But I know
You were just like me with someone disappointed in you

i've become so numb I can't feel you there
Become so tired so much more aware
I'm becoming this all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like you

I've become so numb I can't feel you there
I'm tired of being what you want me to be
I've become so numb I can't feel you there
I'm tired of being what you want me to be

quote for the day ..

"life is just one damned thing after another "
-Elbert Hubbard

Tuesdays with Morrie...

aahh writing something after ages .. i think the only reason i can think of for nor keeping my blog updates is "laziness". there were so many things that i could ve written about .. but then dint end up writing ..

a few days ago i read this book called "Tuesdays with Morrie" by Mitch Albom .. must tell you its an amazing book .. it talks about important things in life which most of us tend to ignore .. we re so caught up in the mundane chores of life that we miss out on things which actually make life worth living .. its a beautifully written book .. it talks about this professor who is about to die and the lessons he gives his student ..

and the best part about the book is it talks about the life that every single person leads today .. from simple human emotions to complexities of life.i generally dont prefer reading self help books because i think they dont really help ! but then i really enjoyed reading this book. few things i could'nt relate to but then on the whole it was a good read .

i think its a book really worth reading !

confused ???!!

what does one do when there are too many things to write about but then you dont know what to start with ? when there is too much to share but not so many words to express them ?this is exactly what i am facing now . have been wanting to write but everytime i decide there s something worth blogging about ; i either end up writing too many things which make no sense or i have no words to do justice to what i want to say .
in any case i decided that i ll just post whats currently on my mind. had been to gurgaon , had a blast, met amazing people, shared amazing thoughts , learnt new lessons , missed a few people , made new friends , played new games , visited new places .... did a lot of things , had new experiences. now i know why people say "time flies". it actually does and oh man how fast! its not even a week since i am back home . have been meeting my friends back home. been narrating all the fun i had .

too many things have suddenly happened in life i suppose. already got my results. said good bye to my bestest friend who left for US yesterday. not yet recovered from the fact that i wont be meeting him for a year. still feels like i am at gurgaon . too many things happening too fast i suppose . dont know if the post even makes any sense .
newayz dats all for now !
ciao

i'll be missing you ...

this post is dedicated to all my friends.

i think its going to be a while before i get used to not being around all you guys. its going to be a new beginning for all of us . just another phase of life i guess. a new experience . in a different place, with different people , with a new environment , with a new beginning .
isn't it almost ironic that every end comes a beginning of something new. no matter how many times i say i am going to miss you; i know we ll just get used to it. don't know how long will it be before we meet again. but then i know we will meet.
earlier arch had a post about way of life. and at this point in time i think thats what best describes the situation. i cant thank you enough for being there when i needed you guys the most.
its going to be a while before i get used to it . and no matter what happens i know i can count on you guys to be there . i hope we achieve what we've dreamt of. will miss you ll loads . i will cherish these memories for years to come.
cheers to our friendship !!
