Heights of Love… The Games!!!


That night, when they performed at The BoiNEC, there were no crazy chicks tugging shirts, or getting mad drunk, or toppling on the band members… Adam walked out of the cafĂ© as soon as the performance was over… & Spurs would just not give away the details of any band members… even if the bouncers saw the girls leave with any them… sorry… pub policy!

Mel & Grata did not even remember the band name & Grata did not know Adam’s second name… the only thing she had was, she knew that Adam & Matt were in a band together & that he works at Ogilvy… so she did the obvious thing to do… online research… she found out the band is called “Hysteria” & Adam’s name is Adam M. Naumann & either he does not want random friend request or he just does not have social media presence! *the latter was a little hard to digest, considering he works with an ad agency, so he must be really good at privacy settings!

The entire week, Grata looked at all 3 mirrors of her car & looked at all sides of the road, but no luck… in fact, no black impala at all… what she did not realize is that Adam still was taking the traffic route & timing, just was driving Matt’s blue Volvo V70 station wagon, but he always drove in front of her… watching her.. & thinking in his head “& I know its driving you mad” she was miserable… & it was visible… she would always be lost… always wondering… Friday morning, Mel walks upto Grata & says, “I assume we are going to The Barracks… we have a double date if you may remember!!!”

To not be a spoil-sport, Grata agreed…

TO BE CONTINUED. . .

What Makes YOU Happy?

Its easy to get frustrated... o! its daaaaaamn easy... you know what's damn hard? its DAMN hard to be happy... its easy to fake a smile... but its so fucking hard to genuinely smile... to genuinely be happy... to be glad... to be... YOU! but if you be you... anyone can try... but they would never be able to keep you down! all you hapta do is figure out what you love, & do it... do it all!

Just make a list of 10 things you love - its could be anything... from travelling... to adventure sports... to shopping... to blowing soap bubbles.. funny thing is... you will realize... that all the things you love, would be in your capacity... you may love travelling but can't afford Paris... try bag packing to the backwaters @ South... you may love shopping but can't afford Gucci - have you heard of the sale/thrift shops?

It could be surprising to you how easy it is to be happy once you have figured out what you love.. just the figuring out what you truly love & what makes you happy is soooooooo hard... hence... people do not find happiness... For me... its mostly things that i can do daily... you don't believe me? Here is the list of 10 things that I love the most - i don't understand why i love them... but i sure have them figured.


1. Listening to music - i smile when i hear beautiful music & cry when i hear sad ones.. I can actually feel my heart fill with joy or sadness... With headsets in my ears - the world just disappears (for me!)

2. Playing the guitar - its never too late to start something new... I started learning the guitar just about 2 months ago.. my hands hurt... i cut.. i bleed... i had to cut my nails... i have callus @ fingertips... but everyday i learn a new tab or tricks such as sliding or hammering or bending, or even a new pattern of strumming... im grinning ear to ear!

3. Singing my heart out - its funny how there is a very precise song for every emotion that you can feel... i just sing it out... i vent it... & i'm happy again!

4. Driving - Oooo... zipping through traffic.. i just love it... i crank up the volume & drive insanely... i cannot tell if i love just the pleasure of driving... or is it a mixed emotion of feeling like a khulla pagal saand on the road... i just love the jat yamla pagla feeling i get!


5. Running - i used to sprint.. right from school days... but i kinna left it for about 10 years.. till i walked up to Ashwin sir & told him that i could possibly sprint @ Amity... I surprised myself.. cuz i ran barefoot in the qualifiers.. but that's where i picked it up again... when i feel the gush of adrenaline through my veins & i hear the sweet sound of blood thump louder than the beautiful music from my headsets & my face goes numb.. there is no better feeling!

6. Eating - Am i a foody? i dunno... but do i like to be full - yes... honestly, i did not know how much i love food till about 4 years ago... when people pointed out to me that i eat a lot... & no one has any idea where it goes... i don't really think i eat all that much.. but i know that my face depicts the true picture of love struck when i see good food... & i have actually had tears of joy when ive eaten really good food.. like really!

7. Sleeping - Damn man.. Do i make a bad girlfriend.. to hell with sweet talks & saying the gooey gunieeeees... i love my sleep... & i get cranky if i don't get my 8 hours.. unless i have an exam or anything competitive the next day! lemme sleep & am an angel!

8. Watching Advertisements - i love ads... i just LOVE them since the day i was born.. i have written posts on posts around it.. so i guess i needn't talk about it yet again... ads can make me laugh & cry & jump with joy & sigh with an involuntary vocal awwwwwwww!

9. Talking - there was a time i wasn't too fond of making a conversation... i realized that made me people averse... i had at best 5 people i used to talk to... off which just 1 was my fren... that made me feel bad about myself... i sorta pitied myself... today... i talk to lot more.. or so says my facebook profile at least... 841 frenz.. OMG.. that's a no... :O  & multiple requests awaiting response (okaaaaay... you're boasting now G!) - Point is - i have people to talk to... & that makes me happy!!!!

10. Writing - It just feels nice.. to write.. whatever i wish to say.. i don't like gossip... i would rather repeat to myself to be happy a quarter billion times... so i write... it makes me feel positive.. makes me feel happy.

If life has taught me anything - its all about the little things! The little things that make YOU HAPPY!!!

Dance With Me !!

These oldies... they haven't grayed their hair in the sun... a couple, "ok most," things that they say are true - It's a matter of fact.. life is hard... it's even true'er'... that life gets harder... & what's even more true is... life is hardest when you have to get by it alone! I am absolutely in accordance with these general rules of this world... cuz apparently.. like I say, i mean, they say, them rules are soooooooooooooooo fuckin' true!

Everyone tells you... you need to grow up.. settle down... find someone who is right for you... live a beautiful life with them... cuz when you grow old... ok, older, you will need someone to lean on... someone who will be your supporting shoulder... everyone else around you will be married & busy with their lives, their kids, their parents... & what will you have - Nothing! No one! See, im not a walk with me types, im a dance with me types... i don't want someone to just live with... i want someone to love & to laugh with... i want the damned SPARK!!!

But, it is something to ponder on... what happens when I'm 40??? & all my folks complain to me is, how everyone around me is married & i still am not sure where am heading, so i ignore them... my sister is married & is busy with her kids... my frenz tell me how they are trying to invest in another house/complain about how their husbands/wives don't have time for them/drink too much/smoke like crazy/cheat on them/mum-in-laws are a torture/children are a night mare/blah blah.. things that i am not even remotely interested in!

I'd rather wanna share my joys, when i finally get the courage to get a tattoo... or go scuba diving... take a road trip with a group that dusn mind a single... won a lottery at last... learned a new song... romanced a guy in Italy... who do i share the same with? So... people say, you should have someone to call your own... is that the reason why you should get married? ok... so let's assume, as per your directive, i don't find my guy... but because, life is hard to get by alone, i do get married... to someone who i do not share a spark with, but he still is good, then what happens?

what if it dusn work out? what if he dies? who am i left with then? in case, we still are together... will i even get to do any of these? would i even "buy" a lottery ticket? will i ever consider a tattoo? songs... will i really have time for my beloved Jango??? will i even think about touching my guitar? i may as well never even get an opportunity at a vacation romance, leave alone real romance! so, why, why i ask... should i get married just because life is going to get HARD??? life NEVER was supposed to be easy... why should i give up on chances of tumbling upon happiness just because i'm scared of being alone? cuz, honestly, at this point in time, i am not even scared! so, i'd rather wait.. i'd rather wait for the dance!

Heights of Love… The Chase!!!


So Grata & Mel, got washed & changed & headed back to the Spurs… As obvious, it was closed… so the girls headed to the Diner for a Brunch… where Mel was curious to get a story & Grata was starving… & as Grata anxiously awaited the food, Mel pleaded for the story… Grata said “Life was so easy once upon a time.. The colorful reds & blues & yellows & greens… assemble ‘m all & make a lego house… that feeling of achievement when my pretty skyscraper stood… my own lego scraper…” Mel – “G! The ADAM story” Grata said “hey, im getting to it… my point is… life is so simple… you see them dots… you connect them together… how did we make life so complicated?”

Mel, “OKAY, GIVE ME the SIMPLE ‘ADAM’ story… don’t complicate it with matters of life”… So Grata told Mel about how she saw him the 1st time… & was scared… but how he grew on her… & that he kissed her & for a moment, the world stopped & how she shooed him away… Mel – “Awwww, how romantic of him & how UTTERLY stupid of you” The ladies were excited about the night, when they would head back to Spurs & either find Adam there or at least get some head start on where to find him!

Adam & his band were rehearsing for their performance that night, jamming at Def Leppard’s “Women” when Alex tugged Adam’s shirt at the end of the song & said “You went away, HOW daaaaaaare you?” just the way Grata did & said the same last night!!! “What’s the deal man??? Who is sheeee??? Where does she come frooooom??? Office colleagueeee??? High School romanceeeee... back with vengeance!!! How come none, LIKE NONE of us know her?” Adam – “Just rehearse you guys… there’s no deal here…!” There sure is a deal… nobody had seen Adam so protective of any girl, ever! The band had to know so they asked Matt as Adam walked off… but, all Matt knew was Adam insisted that as the girls were crazy high, we take them home & we don’t even try & score with them & ensure they get to their place safe when they sober up! “He saw her sleep the whole time & asked me to keep my hands to myself” he whispered… Adam gave up no details to Matt.
