21 st

I'm finally 21 , should i say yipppeeeee & run all over the house & outside ???
Dunno about that , but i was quite happy that so many people called up to wish , ( finding hapiness in the mundaneness of life did u say? ) , So do I feel anything different - not really , another year gone by , but then again a small part of me says " woow oo you are supposed to be a MATURE gal now " u know as a kid whenever I used to visualize myself as 21 - it would always be someone who was totally mature , would wear a shirt & trouser , know my mind all the time , know how to drive , would be a frequent visitor to the beauty parlour and many more . basically these were the things which I thought grownups do .
So how much of me has really changed , I think I'v finally made the transition from introvert to a midivert , am more ready to take on challenges & failures with equal panache . But then again ,my stint at learning driving has been "crashing" ( in my defence , was in class 8 then ) & visit the parlour about once in 2 months for something truly idiotic like a trim , dont know how those people bardashto fy me , & of course when almost 75% of this country thinks that Commitment is the "in thing" , I'm still making do with silly & insipid crushes . Well whatever , freedom is best - what say ?
Oh ya & I completely forgot , have finally started accepting words like F*** , chick , & many others , like tyro asks me to call him "be , sala or something like that " , I'd like to tell him that I'm truly fond of "abbe" , but always thought that the blogging world is full of intellectuals to whom such normal words are digressing .
Lets see what & how much more do I change or do I revert back to what I am or have been , But whatever ! have also realised that life goes on ,every pain lasts for a fixed period of time only to be overtaken by another shot of happiness ,sadness etc etc
Any ways every body's telling me to grow up a little , I dont know what they mean by it but I'll try .
ps = am thinking of quitting blogging

Procedure:
Ok , have been tagged by Saheli aka vanilla sky again ( not complaining , though) . Since my pc is in my bedroom , I do have a stack of books by the bedside which mainly consists of the the last 3 Harry Potter volumes . Have a habit of reading , even if it is for 10 mins before sleeping . Silly it may seem , but I'm still in love with Potter ,& occasinaly go through the pages , actually sometimes, its just fluttering by.
Therefore , the book that I'v picked is Harry Potter & The Order Of The Phoenix. (one of my favourite from the Potter series)
here it goes-
" 'Anti - Muggle pranksters, ' said MrWeasley , frowning. 'We had two last week, one in Wimbledon, one in Elephant and Castle. Muggles are pulling the flush and instead of everything disappearing - well, you can imagine. ............... "

silly & funny na ? one may think its childish , but hey u can find such fantasy only in the potter world . Now just imagine , what would happen if your *ahem* toilets would throw up ? .....



5 people I tag :- (even though I'm not sure whether they've already done this one)

AH almost over !

Last friday our Digital exam got postponed thanx to the thing called "Bandh" , I hope u all get the flow ,
so , utilizing those 4 days of hols wen i shud have studied , i watched as much tv as i could , was being as overconfident as i could , watched jab we met yet again ( not full ,however) , yes & the other thing that i did was the nu addition by Mr. Bhagat - "The 3 mIstakes of my life" .
So this 1 was also about 3 guy friends , one of them hero , the other two lil more than zeroes .
but theres a difference now , coz the narrator here is not directionless like hari or shyam. govind is quite the planner . this is what i liked about the story , coz for once chetan ( im calling him by his 1st name now) , doesnt make his "hero" a mumbling guy who thinks his life is screwed & doesnt really think about improving it . But thanx to chetan for showing that some % of the youth does like to think about the future , their future , they plan about it , think minutly about it.
Here our hero is govind who wants to be a buisnessman one day as rich as the Ambanis or Birla . He doesnt think this is impossible in 1 lifetime as he as planned everything about it , that he'll start as a small trader & then expand his buisness & then he'll be rich ! far fetched , some would say , but not to govind , he saves almost every penny he can get , never mixes emotions with work & is good @ maths - his favourite being probability . So what could really go wrong ?
But alas things do go wrong & though the mistakes that he commits seem totally to be of his own , there are things over which has no control - natural disaster , love & rage .
Personally I feel there's no wrong in thinking that u could earn loads & strive for it everyday of your life .Neither does govind ,but later on he does feel sorry for his attitude coz he realises that there's something more important than money & thats friendship . cheesy as it sounds , but when u r reading , it somehow doesnt seem like that .
Everything ends well , but with some losses the characters suffer . I think what it may have tried to convey is however much u plan everything doesnt always go as u had thought it would , u have to be in a situation to realize what ur action would be , theres no certain way to predict it.
Overall it was a nice read , but plz chetan improve the standard of the girls in ur stories .
With the exception of " 1 Night @ ......." , both neha ( 5 pt ..") & vidya , here , seem to be dolts ( in as polite words as I can say) . they r girls who patao guys , any guy , just for the sake of it & also have gr8 cheapo ways to do so . So plz next time onwards plz give them some brains .
So that's that & I hope u enjoy it too.
But hey lets ask ourselves what are the 3 mistakes we have made in our lives ? oh " life" sounds too long & serious how about the past 1 year ? or are they such things which we woudnt even want to share in our blogs ? the place where we dare to share everything --? am thinking about starting a tag about the same . suggest if u wanna.
