Step Up

I cannot stand people who take their own sweet time and who cannot walk fast in a public place.
When you are walking in Chembur station - please remember that it is not a park where you can come for a stroll and walk hand in hand with your partner
When you are walking on an overhead bridge - keep in mind that it is not a ramp for you to strut - We all have trains to catch
When you are standing at the door in a train - allow everyone to get down even thugh all you are doing is hogging the footboard space
When somebody asks you "CHEMBUR???" in the train - Just say yes evn though you dont actually plan to get down or else you are in for a lecture
And somebody please give me a T-shirt that says - "Yes i am getting down at Chembur"

KRK



The title of the post says it all!I had blogged about Deshdrohi just as soon as I saw it..I saw it again with a friend of mine and could not help laughing at the inanely foolish KRK.
Those who saw Bigg(yes its spelt with a double G) Boss will vouch for the foolishness.
The guy claimed that he gets his water from Holland and milk from France...or was it the other way round? Never mind...it still sounds as foolish!!!!
He roams around in "dejiner" (as he claims...for the less informed I meant designer!) jeans...that looks nothing less than a patchwork quilt in my opinion!
And here comes the cherry on the cake....he wears a chain that has a GUN for a pendant...!!!!

He also claimed on the show that he is a multimillionaire, he hit on that firang chick, refused to have dinner till she told him an I love you....and was then later caught sneaking in a bite when everyone was asleep...
Some people do not need to make an effort...they just make fools of themselves

Into the past and into a haze

Only recently I spotted someone exactly like my grand mom. I was taken aback for a minute as she is no more.
Seeing her, I slipped back into the past and was recounting all my experiences with my grandma, my best friend.
I can't seem to remember the sound of her voice. The memories of her are slowly becoming a blur and it is killing me

Fag('s) end????????

On October 2, Health Minister Anbumani Ramadoss enforced a complete ban on smoking in public places.
(and i am sure that is not going to affect anyone of u)
You CAN,T SMOKE at:

1) Auditoriums
2) Health Institutions
3) Government Buildings
4) Restaurants
5) Courts
6) Public Conveyances
7) Bus Stops
8) Public Transport
9) Stadiums
10) Railway Stations
11) Workplaces
12) Shopping Malls
13) Refreshment Rooms
14) Discotheques
15) Pubs
I just don’t believe it will work. Bans have never worked. Not on smoking..You only drive the problem underground and make it that much more difficult to deal with..

'Cigarette in my hand, I felt like a man.’ (ya right)

We shall see!!!

All play and no work!

Not only do i love watching football, but off-late i have been playing football! (or at least trying to play some decent football)
We took part in 3 corporate tournaments so far
One is still on, one we won!.
This brings me to the 3rd tournament............this weekend we played the kingfisher cup which was supposed to be an all india corporate football league......but not a single women's team registered from any part of the country (disappointing!) But 5 teams registered from mumbai (that itself is a big thing!)

This weekend saw us playing 4 matches and then a final based on the standings.......
Our first match was against kotak...and they took us by surprise.....they followed a simple rule,,,,,,,, IF U CANT KICK THE BALL, KICK THE FOOT
played really rough football, but for people who know me, i was obviously not going to keep quiet..
Few elbows here and there saw us win the match 1-0
Our next match was against WNS (no less than kotak)....only managed a draw which was disappointing considering that we had ample chances. We failed to convert many and luck was also not on our side and many goals hit the post
At the end of the day we were not too content wid a win and a draw.......
The next day, we were supposed to play the thomas cook team
They had been beaten and bruised on the previous day.......they had conceeded 11 goals in their 2 matches.
I wud not term it as over confidence, but we were pretty sure of beating them
I was even looking forward to play up front (i play defence otherwise)..........but the team dint turn up at all! i guess they cud not recover from their humiliating losses.
So we were awarded 3 points, wich we gladly accepted
Our final league match was against deustche bank (great team i must add!)
They were already leading the table, with 3 wins and we cud not afford to lose against them.......we had to at least play for a draw, to be in the top 2 and hence play in the finals
being the pessimist (i prefer realist), i played for a draw, but then again i am in defence and i cant really score up front!
And as u guessed it (or did u?), we drew!!!(yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay)
(yes genius, that meant we were in the finals)
the finals saw us face deustche bank(yes, again)
It went down to the wire......it was 0-0 at the end of play
there was no extra time and it went direct to penalties
i will not describe how the events unfolded (its too painful)
We lost 0-1 on penalties


P.S: On the upside, We got free beer - 48 cans per person

CHEERS!
