Things life has taught me...part 5(basketball spl.)

28. Always play, even when you're not doing anything.. somehow on-court witnessing has more action than off-court.

29. If you suck at the game... blame it on the basketball.

30. When it gets crazy on court, form a safety zone with your body.

31. Never ever let a dog/bitch come near to the ball, have already seen one ball die this way.

32. You might realize, you'll never get good at this game.. but thats no reason not to play.

33. Miracles do happen, so do flukes, just wait for your day.

34. When you get injured, try to get a lot of attention by screaming your lungs out; then suddenly act cool and say its okay.. at least thats what everyone else does!!

35. If its in.. its the right way to do it.

36. While checking, be violent, but don't look violent.. and say "Sorry" "My bad" generously.

37. Have fun, most important..

The magic.. the charm

A chain of events,
some memorable segments.
You seem to think that,
after an age of luck gone splat,
you revived "the charm".
but actually, just another false alarm..

Still terrible fortune
your best buddy, bless scorching afternoon!
Your white shirt still has crush on mud and eggs
and only banana, splits your legs.
And you are still the best man for,
your neighbourhood pigeon shit-pour..

And there you thought, that girl,
all so perfect, all so pearl.
Would turn the game upside down.
Would make you "MaN of the town".
And that its your "charm",
that flows in her watery eyes, like greenish hue from the farm..

The magic is, sometimes raw as rake
starts where all is planned, but seems like a fake
so that another guy
charmless, but still sly
won her over, with his scheming stunt
left you with just as much as grunt..

And again, you go hunting
not for the girl, but for the charm
Dude, wheres your fire-arm??
Use your head, forget the magic
If you really see, its only simple tricks..

Things life has taught me..part 4(mumbai spl)

19. Mumbai is NOT SAFE.. dont wear anything daring, otherwise get ready for comments which gets your ear-wax so ashamed, that it melts under pressure.

20. Don't wear your watch to a beach, even if its water-proof, coz its still not sink-proof. (Courtesy: Paawan)

21. Don't send your designs to IIT, Mumbai (they'll just cheat them as it is, and act cool)

22. Don't sleep in a train, esp. when mischievous friends (who are into face painting ) are around.

23. Mumbai local trains require you to be faster, smarter and stronger than you ever will be while in delhi.

24. Keep your fists closed and maintain the original pace when a bunch of street-dogs follow.

25. Always be nice to your fellow teams, you never know, when you need their safety pins, hair-pins etc.

26. Whenever there are more people around, there will be discussions, and discussions contradicting prev discussions, and discussions why we should be having discussions; and lastly, how we never needed any discussion..so either just be patient, or do your own thing.

27. Always play train games...sometimes you discover great things about yourself and others... all in a train journey!!!

flavour spoilt ;(

This is something I've noticed very recently, actually yesterday evening... see, i have been having the best of the time since exams got over, busy with one thing or another; Mumbai trip was like the best way to close the year..and even after that trip i've hardly stayed at home, always heading somewhere in the morning.. to sum up i was having a perfect time, no blots at all...

and then, yesterday evening i found out that my basketball got torn because an ass brought his bitch on basketball court; and it was like a huge sink for me...i really really got attached to my basketball, plus i was out of practice for this mood-spoiler kind-of thing...so when yesterday, suddenly a basketball hit my nose, i gave up...i mean i just burst out crying, was so embarrassing, but i balanced myself..

so this all got me thinking, that you can have a bucket full of good times, but even a spoonful of bad luck can turn the bucket water grey.. and its hard to imagine what the previous color was, after it all gets discolored..but i guess, the only thing you can do in this situation is, throw the water and start refilling the good times...

The simple truth...12

One of my favorite quotes: "Humor is a rubber sword, it allows you to make a point without drawing blood"..

So

So, i'm having the worst of the exams, definitely getting in 50% range, i.e. if i manage to pass...and my parents think, i'm taken by some poltergeist or something, to be so reckless during exams...and basketball is such a struggle-freak game, i'm gonna take atleast a million years to get really good at it...and after 4years of engineering, i still can't tell you what exactly i did, or going to do... but that all is after i destroy my tom exam, which is insane coz its coming from DCE and has things i don't have a clue, financial management... so, this is not a good time...

Music.

You cant say anything about music, because no matter what you say, its still going to be inadequate... but i do have to say this, music is the only true magic I've seen in this world... its one thing that never disappoints you, in pulling you out from the worst of the times; and making an ordinary thing like walking, sitting, bathing, playing, anything at all, an extraordinary experience... i hope i never go deaf, i'll be better off being dead than deaf..
