Moral of the story: never think during sleepless nights!!!

i am not sure if this is the blog i wanna kick-start with.. but wth.. it is not as if i am writing for the first time.. so i guess its alright :)

it was one of those nights where u lay semi-asleep for an unusually longer time.. ofcourse not that i was disturbed by any incident( yeah!this dus not include the sloppy background score of the 2 a.m repeat telecast of mahabharata my granny was watching :P)... but jus that i had slept thru the whole day and it was becoming seemingly difficult to get sleep in the night.. but i ignored this fact and tried my level best to sleep...

thats when the wierdest of thots struck me... i am sure most of u have thot abt it too (oh come on dont be hypocrites .. jus accept it).. the whole deal of dreamgirl and/or (:P) prince charming business.. as in my case only the first one wud hold true (:P)... oh and if u r one of those who haevnt thot abt it yet.. pls do not read ahead.. cus u wont be able to relate with me at all... (tata! c u in the next blog :))

so.. how dus the whole thing work??? i mean have u ever thot abt how u wud be meeting her and/or him(ok ! for convenience sake from now on i will use only the feminine gender.. pls change n read wherever necessary! ) the next few moments were probably the most cheesiest in my life...

is it gonna be in one of those bookshops... where i wud come from one direction and she, from the opposite and we wud lay our hands on probably the most romantic book ever and our eyes wud meet.. we ll stare(is luk a beter word???)into each others eyes until eternity (i.e to say 2 seconds) and as she is about to take her hands off the buk.. i wud take the buk n offer it to her ( as a chivalrous man shud) and we wud jus walk away ( again in opp directrions) turning n giving momentary glances to the other, just in time to notice that the other had done the same too(tho u had obviously missed it)

or is it gonna be in the London raliway station where i enter the train prolly a minute before the door closes and and i see her running desparately from the end of the platform with her extra large luggage to enter the train.. and as she approaches nearer ..the door begins to close and i realise the only thing that can save her(ofcourse from missing the train) is a hand and i stretch it forward to her and pull her towards me into the train.. and we land safely ( i am not gonna define that watsoever) on the floor ...

or is it gonna be in those local metro train stations where i jus boarded and am waiting for it to move n her train comes from the opp direction( oh i donno y it has to be opposite always :P)( and yes!she IS there in the train).. and we glance at each other.. and in a few seconds my train jus passes by and i try to get the last of her glances possible ..

or is it gonna be...( ha i know u r getting bored...) there is no more 'is it gonna be-s' and for the record.. the above ideas are one-hundred percent original and are not copied from any popular movies.. the resemblence is jus intentional(err.. i mean coincidential...)

and as i lay thinking.. i hear a 'achuuuuu... where did u keep the remote?? ' from distance... ofcourse thats my granny shouting above the already high tv-volume... i reluctantly get out of the bed ('ha now there is no way i am gonna get sleep tonight !') and went to the sitting-room only to hear her say 'oh yeah it was right beside me.. i dint see it'(arghhhhhhhhhhhhh!).. 'oh its ok amumma...' i smile n get back.. this time instead of hitting the bed i jus land on the chair n start thinking..

ok so wats the deal.. i mean how am i gonna know its HER.. its not like she is gonna have my name board around her neck or something... or a locket with my pic in it( oh my god.. i shud stop watching those cheesy old hindi movies)... oh i racked my brains for an answer.. but i cudnt really find one.. i, then recollected asking the same thing to one of my 'love-married' cousins.. and she had jus said.. 'u ll know it dear.. wen its the right time.. ' oh not the same load of crap again.. i am telling u guys.. its jus not worth taking relationship advices from married ppl... or ppl crrently in a relation or from those who jus broke out of one... cus they ll only talk abt extremes and not the moderates.. i mean the medians..(oh i donno the right word... anyways i think u got it!)

'ok.. problem at hand.. still not solved..wat do i do... wat do i do....' oh then i relaised i think i jus over looked the fact that i cud get into an arranged relation too.. phew! relieeef!!! so i really wont have to worry abt knowing who is the one(THE ONE rather)(it makes a diff wen u stress on the blocked ones u c).. parents ll take care of it... but my brains were not gonna leave me alone... 'ok so wat if she is not the right one for u.. i mean parents are also human beings rt???and wat if they make a mistake??? '(oh no.. not another problem)...

hmm... suddenly something my dad had told me a few yrs ago came back rushing to me and i truly understood wat he meant 'marriage is a lucky draw... achu... the chances that u get who u want for life, is really less... that dusnt mean u lose the draw.. u jus got to play the game right.. or atleast right enuf to be the winner...' i was totaly blank and i think he made that out from the look i gave him and he went on '... as in.... understand ur spouse and adjust n sacrifice accordingly.. ofocurse the same is called for from ur spouse's side too and then u can be a winner too and thats wen they say 'marriages r made in heaven!!'

oh ok.. thats not so much of a consolation but watever... and then bam! i hit upon something that atleast got me temporarily relieved... :P i am not a horoscope guy but i am def one of those who reads 'this week ahead' jus to firmly believe that all the gud things mentioned in there is bound to happen and conveniently ignore the negatives :P and so i somehow recollected my mom making some random remark that i was gonna have a happy married life or something of that sort(oh i am jus acting as if i donno wats ritten in there and that i dont care abt it much.. i know it 100% byheart but hey u r not expecting me to blog it out r u??).. and phew!!! that indeed relieved me and got me into noticing that i was actually feeling sleepy... (hurraaaaaaaaaaaaaay)

and as i laid down i gave a final thot abt the whole thing ... lets suppose the worst happens(i donno wat it is but lets jus suppose) i ll force my dad to practicalise watever he used to jokingly (or was he serious???)say wen i was in skool... 'achu... u jus go around dating girls... and tally down on 5-6 of them who u think suits u the best.. and ur sis n i ll do the narrowing down into THE ONE depending on wat we think is best for you' LOL... i donno abt the whole thing but i sure am game for the first part of wat u said dad :P...hehe...

P.S i am not as cheesy as this blog may sound and its not sumthing that actually happened... well ofocurse i have had in-length discussions abt this with my frens and family.. but no! def no sleepless nights on this topic.. or any other for that matter :) and yeah i am totally ok with either school of thot... :P hope u guys luvd it :)

codename_047 said...

LOL nice topic... it was gud to c the romantic side of ash.. nyway . one more way
to meet "THE ONE" is while drivin u c a girls drenched in rain nd offer a lift
(nd the story goes on)... but i think the key to ny realtionship(nt nly marriage)
is understdin.. cos whn u can understd perspetives it makes it easier to justify actions
nd hence easier for us to mak sacrfices for those actions...BUT ALL SAID ND DONE i hav nevr
thgt abt life after 30... this is a better thn gud start to tht area..f
FRANKLY i hate the idea of being committed it is much more easier whn the nly person
u r responsible to is U nd ur parents(to an extent)...nd why would u hav a complete stranger(or som1else .. it really doesnt matter)
hav so much control over ur life is completely beyond me.... GETTIN ME MARRIED IS POSSIBLY THE HARDEST THING MY PARENTS WOULD HAV TO DO!!!!

Someone like me has really no idea abt luv, special someone n similar stuff finds it difficult to grasp the mantra by .new luvguru(in-the-making)..bt i have always been a big fan of his way of love..coz dats the way most of us get into the act actually..yea our loveguru likes a gal so very much..hasn't mustered enough courage to wag it out by now bt since the search has begun(as reflected by his loss of sleep & calmness of mind)...i guess"manzil door nahi hai!!"..all the best buddy!!!

Ok I had a nice laugh picturing you in the bollywood(-ish) scenes which were very thorough and written in painstaking detail, made it all the more hilarious if anything! I shall wait for the post on 'How I met my kid's mother? and then offer my comprehensive analysis on the ashwin-effect on his love story :P

Nice first post! And ever since I saw the Rajender Kumar starring 'Mere Mehboob Tujhe' song, I want to fall in love that way. Check the song out on youtube! :). The lyrics are godawesome and the picturisation splendid!

On a different note, why are you using so many full stops and chat language? Of course, its your blog and you are the master and all, but it definitely would be great if it were in proper words. Maybe the decrease in the number of full stops will lessen your post length! :P :P

some day it will alll happen. all the things. things would happen in exactly the same way you imagined them.

and then you'd look at this blog, wonder, smile and say wow.

(or some day none of it will happen. none of the things. what would happen would be far from what you imagined.

and then you'd look at this blog, wonder, smile and say 'wow'.)

ajay - wow! :D
