"I"

This post is hugely inspired from the book 'Chicken soup for the teenage soul - 3' and 'Alexei Perry'. Both taught me that writing something like this, and that too about your own self, can actually make you feel better. Actually, this post is all about what i feel....

I'm a sixteen year old, tall & fine, with black hair and black eyes, who often feels quite lonely.
I sometimes question my existence and what I am to the world, a piece of undigested meat which the dinosaurs din't eat??
I often wonder, what the 'so called "Real world" ' is all about.
I do not ask to be understood as I can't even understand myself.
Rather, I ask to be accepted, accepted as I am.
I do not want to be told about the potential i have or what my future holds for me.
I do not want to be told that I'm going nowhere in life just because I'm trying to chill out(ward off all the tension) for some time.
I feel happy when I just laze around.
Though I don't know how to dance or sing, yet I try to anyway.
It really hurts me when someone close to me behaves quite badly.
Sometimes, I even feel lonesome in the crowd.
It makes my heart bleed.
I often cry when I'm alone and laughter echoes in my mind.
I'd love to blabber on about all my feelings but not to someone who does not give a damn.
Please don't try to understand me or judge me too quickly.
I am told to be different and not to be myself....

That Loverly Song....

I love music....I love songs....And especially the magic that either the background score or lyrics create....Few songs, whether english or hindi, automatically become a person's favourite, if the lyrics are beautiful, or rather, impressive and touching....

As a little child, I was quite anxious to know about the things going on around me. I always wanted to learn something new. When I was about 7 & a half yrs old, I went to visit my cousin, Art, during my summer holidays. During those holidays, she taught me the song, "Wouldn't it be loverly" from the film "My Fair Lady". Over the years, I still continue to hum that song.

By the way, till date, I've never heard the original song. So, I'm not sure what it is actually like. But, all I remember is her enchanting voice and the way she taught me the song. It was just "loverly"....

Here are the lyrics of that song......

All I want is a room somewhere,
Far away from the cold night air.
With one enormous chair,
Aow, wouldn't it be loverly?

Lots of choc'lates for me to eat,
Lots of coal makin' lots of heat.
Warm face, warm hands, warm feet,
Aow, wouldn't it be loverly?

Aow, so loverly sittin' abso-bloomin'lutely still.
I would never budge 'till spring Crept over me window-sill.

Someone's head restin' on my knee,
Warm and tender as he can be,
Who takes good care of me,
Aow, wouldn't it be loverly?

Loverly, loverly, loverly, loverly ......

Weird things about me - My FiRsT tAg

Thanks Art for tagging me...Though the task was to list 9 weird things about myself, here are 12 of them:-

1. I'm a huge chatter box. I just go on like blah blah if I'm in a good or normal mood. I'm usually shy in the beginning but once I start talking, no one can stop me!
2. I have huge mood swings. When I'm excited, I just can't stop jumping and smiling. Also, when I'm nervous, I just can't stop trembling. I'm never able to hide my emotions. It shows on my face, you see!
3. I'm not confident enough to flaunt what I've got. Few of my friends, who ask me to do that, have lost hope already! :-)
4. I simply love my cousins. Rather, tooo much. And often when they don't keep in touch, I'm kind of sad and think that they are so busy that they have forgotten me. Huh. Weirdo!
5. When I talk with people, especially my friends and cousins, I often think that I'm a pestering and bugging creature. Self-pessimistic or what ??
6. I don't like to be the centre of attraction (in the sense, the talk of the town stuff).
7. I like dancing and singing too but only when I'm alone. I feel weird in front of others.Huh.
8. I love music and sometimes try to relate a few songs and lyrics to the people whom I know. Really weird!!
9. I 'day-dream' a lot and often sooo much that I start smiling and people are like " what are you up to?".
10. Sometimes, I have this awkward feeling that the people around me know what I'm thinking about.
11. (secret time!pssst!!!!)I don't have loads of crushes and the ones I had weren't for a few days, unlike other people. They rather lasted for months and I ain't sure if they still last.
12. Lastly, when people say good things about me (like "you are cute" or any other appreciative stuff), I'm never able to digest it.

Amla....

Actually, i was just having an amla today and it made me think as to what is this little strange fruit all about. So, i did a bit of research work and compiled a few facts. Here are they:-

• Amla a.k.a. Indian Gooseberry a.k.a. Emblica Officinalis has various common names like amalaka, nelli, aonla, aola, amalaki, dharty, aamvala, aawallaa, emblic, emblic myrobalan, nellikai, nillika and usareekai.
• It is by far the richest natural source of anti-oxidants like vitamin C, emblicanin (A & B), punigluconin, pedunculagin, super oxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT) and glutathione peroxidase (GPX).
• Amla contains 160 times the amount Vitamin C as contained in an apple, 25 times as in an Orange and 35 times as in lime juice.
• The fruit is cooling, refrigerant, diuretic, laxative, antibacterial and rejuvenative.
• It is used in Ayurveda as a cardiotonic, antipyretic, antidiabetic, respiratory, cerebral and gastrointestinal tonic.
• It is found to raise the total protein level and increase the body weight due to positive nitrogen balance.

Well, this was a surprisingly informative post for my blog. One more thing, if you try to eat an amla, have a sip of water after each bite...The water seems to be very cool and sweet...Try it....hehehe

A few weird things about everyone....

Just came across this while surfing the net and got influenced to write a very much similar post....I sometimes do think this way :-p

Think about this!! Things that need to be hated....

• Some people are willing to search the entire room for the T.V remote but they just refuse to walk to the T.V. and change the channel manually! huh!
• When people ask “Can I ask you a question?”, I'd love to say, "Dude!You didn’t really give me a choice there, did ya?"
• When people point at their wrist while asking for the time, I'd love to say, "Dude! I know where my watch is, where the hell is yours?"
• When people say “Oh you only baked that cake and you wanna eat it too”, I'd love to say, "Damn right! What good is the cake if you can’t eat it yourself?"
• When people say “It’s always the last place you look”, I'd love to say, "Of course it is. Why the hell would i keep looking after i’ve found it? Does anyone do this? If anyone does, who and where are they?"
• When people say while watching a film in a cinema-hall, “did you see that?”, I'd love to say, "No Loser! I paid 150 bucks to come and stare at the damn floor."
• When people say "this is something new and improved!", I'd love to say, "Which is it? If it’s new, then there has never been anything before it. If it’s an improvement, then there must have been something before it, couldn’t be new."
• When people say “life is short”, I'd love to say, "What the hell?? Life is the longest damn thing anyone ever suffers from!! Is there anything that’s longer?"
• When you are waiting for the bus and people ask “Has the bus come yet?”, I'd love to say, "If the bus came would I be standing here, dumbo?"

What's your take on this?? Do tell me if you know more about such situations...
