Sach ka Saamna

The rules are thus…
RULE 1
You can only say Guilty or Innocent
RULE 2
You are not allowed to explain anything unless someone messages you and asks!

Ever kissed someone of the same sex?

INNOCENT. Never .. sounds so gross

Asked someone to marry you?

GUILTY. Many a times playfully .. thankfully not meaning even once

Ever told a lie?

Hopelessly GUILTY. Bad question - Should be the opposite - Ever told a truth ?

Had feelings for someone whom you can’t have back?

GUILTY. Yes yes.. for one long period.

Kissed a picture?

GUILTY.

Slept in until 5 PM?

GUILTY.

Danced on a table in a bar?

INNOCENT. Waiting for a chance to commit the guilt.

Fallen asleep at work/school?

GUILTY for school, GUILTY for work. School was fine, but I have just realised that it's easier at work.

Been suspended from school?

INNOCENT. Have been at the verge of 1 many a times in class 11 & 12.. but unfortunately ...

Worked at a fast food restaurant?

INNOCENT. Always wanted to - my parents were dread against the idea. Had even thought of working in a call centre for a month of vacations - never actually materialized.

Stolen from a store?

GUILTY. Latest was when me and my MRT girl(friend ???) went in to Haigen Daas - Ate a huge sundae and walked out without paying. Realised it when we were just about to take a cab - but then decided against going back - taking the logic that it's their "poor customer service" - and Singapore has too many people for him to remember our faces anyways.

Laughed until something you were drinking came out your nose?

GUILTY. Have actually spit it out on people in front of me also.

Caught a snowflake on your tongue?

INNOCENT. Never struck me.

Kissed in the rain?

Partly GUILTY. Kissed after being drenched in the rain.

Sat on a roof top?

GUILTY. IIT Delhi convo sloping roof - with our legs hanging in the air.

Sang in the shower?

GUILTY.

Been pushed into a pool with all your clothes on?

INNOCENT. Have always wished this would happen - but never actually happened.

Made a girlfriend/boyfriend cry?

GUILTY.

Shot a gun?

INNOCENT

Donated Blood?

GUILTY. I am a scared chicken.

Eaten alligator meat?

INNOCENT. WTF !!!

Still love someone you shouldn’t?

Thankfully INNOCENT now.

Liked someone, but will never tell who?

GUILTY. Dil ke baat hamesha muhn par lao .. nahi to chidiya ud jaeygey .... Though in my case waise bhi udd hi jatey hai :D

Been too honest?

GUILTY. Too many times - specially with people I love. Have realised it the hard way - that complete honesty is not the best policy. Refer to:

http://undercurrents-of-the-soul.blogspot.com/2009/05/friends.html

Kissed someone you shouldn’t?

INNOCENT. Unfortunately.

Ruined a surprise?

GUILTY. Believe in too much frankness.

Ate in a restaurant and got really bloated that you couldn’t walk afterwards?

GUILTY. Again happens all the time - has even left a mark on me .. read Junior Kothari.

Erased someone in your friends list?

GUILTY. Deleted my gf when we used to fight - realised it was too kiddish

Dressed in a woman’s clothes (if you’re a guy) or man’s clothes (if you’re a girl)?

GUILTY. Sealed lips.

Been told that you’re handsome or beautiful by someone who totally meant what they said?

GUILTY. Thankfully !!!

Had communication with your ex?

GUILTY. And i won't like to call that being guilty. :)

Got totally drunk on the night before exam?

GUILTY. Have walked in drunk into an exam. Some stupid value education presentation - Cheers to Prateek Arora for that :)

Friends

A very good old friend just said ...

If I start telling everyone everything frankly about them, I would be left with no friends.

I was left quite speechless at this very interesting observation.

Would you want a friend with whom you cannot be frank about the your true opinion of him/her ???

The 4 @ BECA Ball

This picture is from the BECA Ball 2008.

It showed - or was made to show few stories of these 4 gentlemen.

Character 1: The Young Budding Hot Headed Man ready for challenges and what lies in life ahead.

Character 2: The Happy Go lucky guy who is so content.

Character 3: The calm, composed and graceful partner who does not smile but has a look that says it all.

Character 4: The old guy who is weary of life. The Mr. CEO.

On a serious note:
As I write this I tend to wonder - is this the reality of the 4 characters. Probably not. Then why has it happened that for a 'posed' picture each of them portray the above mentioned characteristics.

Is it what they idolize? Is it what they fear most - which has come to the forefront ? Is it what society and friends expect from them?

Is this their true self or is this what they want or (more worryingly) have been made to idolize?

22 June 2008

Sunday. 22 June 2008. Auckland, New Zealand. 4.30 pm NZST.

A Sunday.
An uneventful Sunday.
The stroke of midnight ended a serious analytical conversation - left halfway.
The 22nd birthday of 2 dear friends.
Plans to go out destroyed.
A great lunch courtesy to Bhardawaj, Talwar and Sodhi.
And now me sitting on my lappy listening to Pussycat Dolls.

Confused

A missed mail - accusations of individualistic .

Not that I deny - But i fail to understand the basis - the expectations.

And plus I like to keep TIME.

And I like the use of a cellphone.

Still Thinking ...

Saturday Night @ Auckland

Poora saturday nikalne hi wala tha when Mr. Gaurav Talwar put his foot down ...

Mr. Talwar declares that he cannot sit in such confined for such a long time ..

So Abhinav, Mr. Talwar myself and Mr. Sodhi set out for a Saturday night adventure ... Mr. Sodhi grudgingly returned just outside the apartment .. saying he wants to have time with himself ...

That being a different issue that Bhagat Singh aka Mr. Sodhi had interesting stains on his T Shirt.

Our first destination was YMCA to inform Ms. Swati Agarwal about are plans for Waheike Island .. again a different issue.

:P

So we headed to the Sky City tower ..went to the 2 cent machine at the Casino ..Mr. Bhardwaj lost 3$.

He's still hoping that Lady Luck .. oh Sorry he's not the ladies man .. yeah
So he's hoping that Bhagwan will bestow him with wealth someday.

Next destination was the Atrium cafe .. where we saw an interesting couple ... Mr. Talwar called the guy a Ladies Man. This was followed by a visit to the disc there .. which was rocking .. specially that hot chick in black .. omg ... aaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhh

:D

I'll leave it to Mr. Talwar or Mr. Bhardwaj to continue .. as the hot black chick now needs to sleep with me .. in my dreams
:D

Placements

Those expectant eyes .. those red ears ... those beating hearts .. those polished shoes .. those shining ties ...

All split into 2 worlds ..

Tears of joy .. screams of pleasure .. jump of excitement

OR

Cry of dissapointment, groans of sadness, tears of sadness


Who decides who goes to which world .. Apparently me ... But just apparently ..
I wish I could add names in the final list ...add all those who appeared and expected ..

But its that minute which decides .. the minute no one can comprehend .. yet just feel ..
