yes or k?

today is the birthday of one my best mates, and i was thinking about our pu-days together and how i got most of the lyrics of new songs right while he argued with me that i was wrong... like the new hit song of "kal ho naho" - 'pretty woman', oh yeah we loved that song and he argued that it was ' kudi gumao' ... ... i know i know how absurd it was but we had that argument for 3 full days and then came vachan dev, i love that guy he always had an opinion and it was 'kudi women' this time around, viola!!!! now thats was really gud... lolz!!!!! now srk can't really argue against that can he?

Time frozen TENDULKAR

I am quoting a piece on 'the' Tendulkar that appeared in The Times magazine-


 " When Sachin Tendulkar travelled to Pakistan to face one of the finest bowling attacks ever assembled in cricket, Michael Schumacher was yet to race a F1 car, Lance Armstrong had never been to the Tour de France, Diego Maradona was still the captain of a world champion Argentina team, Pete Sampras had never won a Grand Slam.When Tendulkar embarked on a glorious career taming Imran and company, Roger Federer was a name unheard of; Lionel Messi was in his nappies, Usain Bolt was an unknown kid in the Jamaican backwaters. The Berlin Wall was still intact, USSR was one big, big country, Dr Manmohan Singh was yet to "open" the Nehruvian economy.It seems while Time was having his toll on every individual on the face of this planet, he excused one man. Time stands frozen in front of Sachin Tendulkar. We have had champions, we have had legends, but we have never had another Sachin Tendulkar and we never will.”

backfire!!!

The Landing

Everyone has something to tell, I want to tell you about my first day in Shimoga- MY HOME CITY.

I was 6 years old, my dad got a job in Yemen, he went to work for construction of an oil platform there. Since this was his first job abroad after marriage, he didn't want to leave me and my mom in Hassan, he decided to move to Shimoga, a town near to my mom's native Mattur, so that she would be comfortable here, there are my uncles and aunts to look after us, (even though i was very capable of it my self, my dad thought it was not a job for 6year old kid and made sure I have help :) :D ). The ride was fun probably the most fun ever. ( have you ever  rode a lorry? for 250 odd kilometers? half of it on the back as in few movies? shouting and waving at other vehicles passing by. and half of it on the front seat shooting vehicles with the 'two finger' gun, have you anybody? its every kids dream!!!!!)

By the time we reached Shimoga it was past 9 in the evening, exhausted from shooting soo many imaginary bullets I stepped down from the front door of the lorry and ran to the gate, I saw two guys sitting in front of the window, I went to them and asked what they were doing in front of my windows? They were Raagu and Deepu (Akhilesh and Pradeep respectively) I will always remember the years I spent playing 'I spy', spot, cricket and lots of other games with them :)

Home

I wondered why there are two words for he same thing? home-house, its just the place u live in whats the difference?

I moved to Shimoga with my parents when i was in UKG, just past the mid-terms, we moved from Hassan to Shimoga 16 years ago, since then I have moved to 5 different houses, the first one was in Rajendra Nagar, nice place i made 2 friends the day i set foot here, few more the following day I will talk about it some other day. We stayed there for 6 years then my dad wanted us to move, ha had started studying Vaastu Shastra and accoeding to it that house was not auspicious one, rather its influence was detrimental to the inhabitants so we moved, didn't bother me much we just moved a few blocks away , I had my friends and TV to keep me occupied got used to it so was it a home or a house? don't know my father told me once that house is a place to live and home is when u live in it. So whats the deal?

After 30 months we had to move to another house after the contract expired, my god i was glad i was leaving that place, didn't ever make me feel good. the next place was a better, we were for the first time moving upstairs, i always wanted to stay upstairs, the house was an adventure it had all these places to climb into :) I always liked to do that, it reminded me of my first residence in Shimoga. after some time I got bored of the place, so the next time we had to move I was very exited, now I had an opinion and a desire, I loved new places and it was wonderful new house new people new friends!!! new things to do... but still it didn't make much difference just the usual bore dome before I get used to it, I thought I had the question answered, where ever u live is a home you can call it anything isn't going to do much difference, then we moved to the place we are staying now, this was a very good place, the feeling was different not like other houses we had been in, I wonder I didn't have to get used to this place, there was nothing to get used to actually, since the owner of the house we were in before was a real jerk we were happy to move on, now after there we were asked to leave again, now they need the house for themselves hey ve a BIG family hence we are asked to move on.

It was annoying to get a new house, none were suitable for the Vaastu standards, and finally after 40 days we got one to our desire and have to move. Just the same thing again I thought!! but not so, now whenever I think of home I get this place in mind ( It was the same for other places too) but the thing is I was happy to go to a new place then, but now its hard to accept that I have to leave this place, there is something nagging, something bothering deep inside, then it came to pass!!! Now I was leaving my home.
