Another Day, Another World


          Today was no ordinary day, today me and my batch-mates were to do one of the crucial assignments of the semester. The assignment was that of TV Journalism and Production in which we had to make an entire package of a TV program. This was my first camera handling assignment and I was excited.I went over to a friend with another friend and we head out to Surajkund Mela. 
          The mela was the same as the last year ( yea last year too we came here and had another assignment :P) but, was completely different. The very moment we entered I met my group and we were given the camera to record. That is when the mela changed its outlook to me, I saw shots and frames, the stills for montage and so on. The ordinary and tangible gate with letters "Chattisgarh Gate 2015" etched on it looked like a fascinating thing that must be captured, the food stalls with familiar looking scent started to morph into a display of mouthwatering delicacies. The entire place was filled with art, craft and cultures from all over India, and the same of few other countries too.
          When that ended we all breathed a sigh of relief but, work wasn't done, what lie ahead of me was something so wondrous that I had to learn about the flavors, the way those masterpieces of art came into being et cetra. Firstly, i encountered this stall with a juice that was alien to me, the juice was that of dates and believe me when I tell you it was heaven and I wished to buy a few liters for home as well, then i came towards this exquisite stall for "Chana Jor Garam" and they had this amazing tang and that mouthwatering mix of spices. These 2 were the initial highlights later, when I was coming back from the mela with my 3 friends we stopped by for an ice-cream which was another teaser for the tingling taste buds. I rode most of the time like a dog with its tongue out and face out the window but, in a subtle and humane manner (yea! im not awkward, Im just cool), a guy drove by telling me to get my head inside and i told him this as it was the first reason that popped in my head "Yaar Hawa Bohot Acchi Hai" (the wind is way too good)!!

Hey readers .. how are you all ..  you know there is one in everyone's life that we turn to when we need to get something done or to ask for a favor. Thats one person we call the "nice guy" or "nice girl" ... and we never want to mess up our friendship with them .. even if we break up with them from a committed relation . Dont you have one of those in your friend's list  ?   well hope you do .. but anyways that one friend never asks for anything in return does he ..? , and thus we just tend to think that maybe because the friend never asks for something he/she just might not require it . well plz take a look in the mirror selfish beings .. what you tend to with a person who is standing at every point when you need him/her . That one friend is taken for granted ... how putrid man has become for the only thing we are supposed to value is taken for granted ... and we tend to run after what doesnt wanna stay ..    i think we need intros...

The Slip-up

Hey readers, So this post is about how I hopelessly fell in love with someone and what followed was the horrendous mistake. I shall engage you in a related topic first, you all must be know that there are various apps on our smartphones which match people so here I am narrating the story of one app that my friend suggested to me about a month back. It started off as a joke with him and he was boasting about how many matches he had got, while I could see that most of the matches in his chat window didn't have a profile pic, poor sod how desperate to have liked women with no profile pics at all!! Anyways I joked that is it would be a Punjabi app it will be called "satinder" (Funny ryt, well .. What can I say). So this app came with a new feature recently, a Superlike, only at a swipe of the thumb(upward). So, on the Sunday afternoon 24/10/15. I received one of those and I was like "oh my god am I anywhere near this handsome, and got to talking the girl ryt away...

What Goes Around, Comes Around

So, it was last night that I got talking to the girl I had fallen for, 4 years back. We got to talking and i learned that she no longer has a boyfriend anymore and I was as happy as a toddler because it was first time in 4 years that i had learned that she was single and i did not think twice and offered her to take me back.  (yea, you are thinking right, what kind of fool just jumps at an opportunity like that, I could have waited a bit, could have asked if she was available, hell could have asked how did it happen and then move on from it but no, I didnt have that much thought and I just asked her straight away.) It is after her initial tipsy reply that I first felt it. During her acknowledgement of how special I was to her, she used that infernal word, that one word which was enough to tell me to quit dreaming. She used the word "always" I knew it then and there that she was lost to me. given the fact that I pushed her away in the first place. It was after asking her to...
