My favourite kind of cutlet.

When I said I was light years ahead of you,
I meant it.








Maybe we aren't so far apart anymore.
I think existentialists and great philosophers have too much time on their hands.
They should get out and do some real work or watch a movie.


That being said, developing coordinate geometry does count as work and I also kind of think I have a crush on Descartes 
I find things beautiful.
And you'd imagine that everybody else would see it too.

Nobody does.

New Boy

I think this person has an alarming capacity to talk,
An alarming capacity to listen.
You know, you don't have to buy into everything you read
Or what people say.

That's what you have a mind for.
A rational, thinking, emotional mind.

I'm not even sure why I care enough to say this.

So...

As it turns out, the key to getting more hours into your day
IS to sleep less.

Not enough hours in the day.
Not enough days in the week.

One of those days when you want to escape into your head.
Realizing you can't escape from where you already are.

I'm grumpy, happy, angry and pleased, all at the same time. All for different reasons.
Category: Secret things in my mind, secret things in my bag
When everything's rushed and people speak like there's a motor attached to their mouth and flit over to the next thing before you've even completed your sentence.
I like to speak slowly. As if I have all the time in the world.

Psychobabble
She said that the basis of their relationship was trust.
She spoke bravely saying that it was.

A kiss on the neck.
Not hers.
She'll never know.
I'd forgotten what it feels like to be jealous.
I see it control me.
There was nothing I could do about it but stand back and watch as it destroyed everything I meant to be.


Category: Bare

I'd like a sacrificial goat.

Grief

Box it up.
Keep everything in.
Close everyone out.

May

The month for burning bridges.
Three people bothered me last week.
Two I mentally cut off without a second thought.
The third, the albatross round my neck.

I've also been informed that Alpha Males are a myth.

I get super irritated when people understand the exact OPPOSITE of what I'm saying.
I mean, how bad could my communication skills be?


Eg.Me: You see that dog on the left?
 Other person: Right??
 
I'm not saying they're dumb.
Ok, that's what I'm saying.
I never apologized.
How could I?
I wasn't wrong.

Did you know that you could be wrong
And swear you're right
My Arshad left town.
Bummer :/

Update: He came back.
 This is getting old.

Eventually, they stop bothering. As they should.

Maya (Age 4)

She looks at this big tear in her night dress and is a bit annoyed, thinking that Megan, her sister's, done it.
She then shrugs, resigns herself and says, "Let it be. Lot's of fresh air has to come in."

It feels slightly wrong to be happy.

I feel like having my own house and some green tea with honey.
My Arshad is in town :)

Out of sight is out of touch.
All the way is far enough.

You could be wrong and still be right.
So many things to savour.

I love when things are implicit.
When humour and ideas are implied.
I can't bear it when people feel the need to discuss it and ruin it.

They're like low grade cement.

Thinkers and talkers are tedious.
That's all there is to it.

How to plan to take over the world

Pi: IDEALLY speaking
this works in a year or so
and someone buys it off from me
and I retire to Goa with my own shack
Me: lol

Pi: :)
Me: I'll come visit
Pi: I'll have a hammock put out for you no need to pay stupid hotel guys
Me: I'll keep my sun hat ready
Pi: heha
ok chica, I'm going to crash now remember.
confidential for now!

Aren't all of us stuck with the choices we make?

I wish I could manage it.
I wish I could be less affected by it.
Act more unaffected.

I try.

It always happens.
When you give these little people power, it goes to their heads.
Like strong drink.

(:
I knew an awesome person once (I've known at least 8) and I lost him. It was sheer carelessness.
I hate losing.

I should just give up and get up.
Not the ideal start to my Saturday morning.

Friday, April 27, 2012

I cut my hair by myself because it was falling in my face.

It just occurred to me that in an unrelated move, Megan(my 6 year old god child) did the same thing a couple of weeks ago.

I really should stop asking myself why Megan does the things she does.


I'm reading.
And eating chocolates.

That's all I feel like doing.
That's all I'm doing.

Mood: Happy

I didn't go to Goa.
I bought a book instead.

Unlucky

Yesterday I felt unlucky.
Today I saw a 6 year old carrying a pot of water
And an old faced 14 year old pushing a pani puri cart.

I don't know the first thing about being unlucky.  

I'd have risked the isolation and boredom for the connect.

60,000 Rupees

-A face painter working 20 days a month, 4 hours a day
-A photographer working 10 days a month, 8 hours a day
-A comedian working 1 day a month, 4 hours a day
-A singer working 3 days a month, 2 hours a day
-An MC working 4 days a month, 4 hours a day


Very ordinary people at very ordinary jobs.

The price?
Insecurity.

I don't want to save the world.
Not from a thief government
Not from religious nuts
Not from consumerism
Not from anything.
I have no purpose.

I just long to be entertained.
I wish you weren't so afraid of failing.

There's this girl. She's quite beautiful. She seems a bit mental.
Or maybe she's just young and experimental.
She has a tattoo. On her hand.
Of her mother's signature, ending with her mother's favourite flower. A lily.


We do everything we can to hold on.

Imparfait

Aren't we all?
It's strange how
You feel this slight movement, a slight tremor
And you know, somewhere, someone's world is falling apart.
Emotion, yet peace.
Ignorance, yet knowledge.
Passion, yet serenity.
Chaos, yet harmony.
Death, yet the Force.
