The Trouble With A Bad Nose
First up a giveaway: http://asavingmomssanity.blogspot.com/2011/03/test-birthday-bash-park-ave-shirt.html#comment-form
You end up cursing your nose so much and wish it wasn’t ever there to begin with. But then think about it, if you didn’t have a nose how the hell would you smell ?
(That rhymed, but that’s beside the point.)
People can’t really comprehend you when you speak because everything ends up sound like BOB.
Your M’s become B’s and N’s become D’s. And then soon, the sound of your own voice begins to distract you to the power of infinity.
At night, you’re forced to sleep with your mouth a little bit open, because otherwise where will the oxygen come in from? And in the morning, you end up feeling like a dog who had his tongue out the window on a drive from Bangalore to Coorg and his tonsils have become dry ice.
So long, suckas!

Mary Jane And The Green Fairy
I haven’t written in the longest time, not because of a lack of things to write about, but because of all the madness that has been persisting in the environment around me. I’ve had the time of my life in the last few weeks. Pertaining to the above mentioned title, and otherwise 
My birthday couldn’t have gotten any better than what it was. And I feel lucky, and I feel like the only eighteen year old to have ever had such a grand time. Not a lame club dance that lasted for a few hours, not some pseudo drinking getting high, no new gadgets as presents to scream and show off.
But a wonderful week away to a city, from the people I love, to the people I love. And there, I met MJ. As well as her Indian counterpart, locked away in the confines of a very familiar and sexy Beatles case 
Winter wonderland, truly. And I can rightly say, I started the year with a bang-bang-pow And it can only keep getting better. After all, it’s your perception of how things should be. If you’re unhappy, you make everything around you seem that way. So keep your head cool, that’s probably why the calendar year starts in the snow.
And otherwise, every year is a new year anyway.

Whacked Out Foresight
Till sometime back, I was feeling inclined towards the entire political line as a career. I don’t know why, but I felt as if I was the one who had been bestowed with the ability to handle this country. I had every intention to leave things behind, join the Indian National Congress, and try and do something. I might as well have made the best and shortest politician that the country would have had. And then, an epiphany.
I realized, that getting into the field would have required me to give up on all material wants of life – Starting with high end fashion. But then politicians abroad wear Gucci and Prada, don’t they? I would have to fit into my own country, and I’m only about having a hard time speaking the language properly. That shouldn’t be a problem though, should it? Because politicians today are anyway human forms of blood sucking leeches who harp on the state coffers and drink up wealth like fish drink water.
Instead of having a mansion and twenty cars, I could still have my designer clothing and hot shoes, perhaps?
I would have to give up on my future family and fight for the damn country. I can do that at a model UN conference, but I have a feeling that in my lifetime, I’ve instigated a number of people belonging to all walks of life, and would not really be able to win as many votes either. If I want to handle the drama and the press, I might as well be a celebrity by taking my musical career forward. There’ll be enough fans then, and I can preach whatever the hell I want, without having to worry about anyone listening (or not listening) to me, but at least I’d know they’ll be humming my lyrics, however pop stricken they might be.
And I’d still get to wear all my shoes. Because you kind of have to compromise on your pair of Charles & Keith’s with simple flats under a plain saree if you’re a politician; something I’d have to adorn because otherwise my country would brand me as an alien from sdlkfhwektwgbs.

Prudence, It Used To Be
It’s possible, I do have the capacity to break into a rant after all this time, AGAIN.
I’d promised all of you that I’d be writing regularly, no matter what part of the world I am in. Although, even if it isn’t safe to say that I’ve burdened with balanced amounts of fun and work, I will have to because no other excuse seems liable enough to fund off parts of my ego to you on this very requited portal.
Mumbai’s been great, and there’s still a week left. What with the racing back home and not sitting down to play interesting board games with the rest of my cousins because of an overload of content writing, dancing the nights away at clubs, chilling (and killing!), it’s been a crazy summer. Yet, a week’s left, and I would bet every rupee that I made, that it’s still going to get better than this.
Well, while we’re still here.
Something I miss out on is the fact that I haven’t been able to go exploring on my own as yet. I’d thought about this sometime back as well, but it just didn’t happen. Maybe this week. If not, then I’m coming back again. I’ve got great ideas waiting to be exploited, a crazy looking hairdo and an exciting atmosphere that sustains the highest levels of astonishment around me.
And nothing could get better than that.

Merci Beaucoup!
YR! My heartiest thanks to you! Although that might sound a little too formal and everything, you have no idea HOW happy you’ve made me with all the news from yesterday! What you did was the most amazing thing anyone’s done for me in a long, long time. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Also, the best deed ever done in all of 2010
Like I said, I don’t forget these little little things, so you’re in my awesome list now, and you’ll receive the eternal-grateful-thank-you-type-priority-dealing with! Because otherwise I would have just been nice to you, as you are so nice yourself 
*HAPPY-NESS!*

The You-Can’t-Avoid-It Conversation
Have you heard the saying, “Baat karne se hi baat banti hai?”
And it’s so stuck in my head, especially because my Godfather’s been inculcating the lost value in me for so long; and I, would like to do the same to you.
I’ve seen so many people around me, stuck in friendships, relationships, problems, sorrows, even happiness, you name it. I’ve realised that having even the best of moods can get ruined if you don’t learn to open your mouth and talk to people. I think that’s the worst thing one could ever do; not talk. How can you stay silent and take things in even when they go against your principles especially if the one you’re staying silent in front of is someone you love?
I find the thought ridiculous at times, but it’s true. People are so afraid of what the consequences of a conversation might be. But if you never have it, you never will know, isn’t it?
There are so many times when you have so much to say, but it doesn’t come out because of many reasons. What about all the times when you don’t say what you wanted to, keep it all in, and then watch the situation get worse in front of your eyes?
Wouldn’t you rather say it and watch what happens next rather than stand in a corner like a non enthralled spectator?
I’ll tell you what. Let’s help you solve this problem instead of going on about it. If there’s anything you need to say but are not being able to, get back to me. Tell me anonymously. I’ll help you overcome the fear. But don’t hesitate.
Because we appreciate only taking risks.

Wherever She May Roam
She carries with her:
Her cute li’l butt.
Cranberry juice. At all times.
An attitude a mile long.
Jazz.
Violette Funk Zimitri.
Pretend alcohol. And that’s about as good as it gets.
A high mind.
Extreme thoughts.
Pictures of you.

Friends Exposed
You know that annoying application on Facebook where random people who have nothing to do answer equally random questions? Well, my Kappa friends are not random, and know me right inside out. I love Debby’s answers, they crack me up! Here are a few of those:
She wouldn’t. She would chuck it outta the window and take out her laptop.
And then laugh like a maniac. Then blog about it. ♥ ♥
AND go and rob Salvatore baby. ♥ “
Winter Solstice
Thank you for telling me that I blame everything around me and that I am the one who apparently causes all the problems and accuses other people. Because, yes it does make me feel a whole lot better. Do one thing, also just let me know exactly *what* you think of me as a character.
And from now onwards, I’m done pleasing people. Why should I always be the one who has to go to everyone and try and be all happy and chirpy? And then when I’m not, people just get mad at me, and I’m left with a guilty conscience even if I did nothing. So quit giving me philosophical shit, because I know exactly what I have to know. And I also know that you’re underestimating me.
All of this has scarred my brain, and is not going to go away for a long time, thanks for the beautiful relapse. I was really trying hard to be a different person, but okay.
Just go to hell.

You’re A Crazy Breed, Indeed
I have a feeling I was too into the whole Chris McCandless thing.
Look, even though I got hit hard by the entirety of the situation and began adopting his ideals into my life, I need to remember and retain certain things still. I maybe tired of society, but I cannot be tired of my family and whatever there is to it.
I’m extremely sure of adopting a similar path in life as and when I do gather enough courage to do it, but till then, I need to learn how to be happy. And stay that way.
I need to know that I cannot lose my mind. Just because I take on the world does not mean that I forget what my actual purpose in life is. Taking over the world is only going to be easy as long as I am calm and patient and take it slow and easy. Because otherwise, it’s nothing but a whirlwind of hurricanes.
But I lose it sometimes, because to err is my forte.
And enjoy while you do something, because what else are you doing it for?
I have no idea who I’m telling this to, you or myself. Either way, it can still prove to be beneficial.
So like, have an awesome trip, mom and pa.
