Sur Taal

Aaaah blogging regulalry feels like a workout unfailed..doesn't it?..I can't seem to stop thinking of the last time I set foot on the dance floor. Morning was a great rebirth to my glorified days of my shindig. I pranced all over the floor to Ambient Chillout Psy that Winamp has so generously gifted to its viewers/listeners et al
I felt clumsy in the beginning but not bad I got a good control of the steps real soon..
A hot kullad chai will do wonders for me right now. The porosity of khari dipped in tea..absolute yumzz.
Haiku ki jai

Starry starry night
footloose and fancyfree
am a soul dancer...

bloggerina

Hey all those who never fail to check on me...
ok the past few months..correction..the past year i think has been "tumbling down" with regards to my penmanship..sigh

Grey mist of the night
Vaporized in happiness
I'm now.. Auroral

Pretty much the state of mind I was in all this time..
Feeling splendid with a new train of thoughts and a bright innings to emerge..

Sunny-side up!!

Namaskaram my bolggers...
Uff i finally dusted my laziness and got back to my version of "neverland"
It was protracted, banal and my writng and thought process were quite inconsequential to a many. Anyway am thinkin and thinking and....

i peep into dark
my world still beautiful
galaxy of stars

See i am telling you, this site has a magic potion attached to it, my mind just produced a fantastic Haiku(sorry am attached to this type of poetry).
The weather is gettig BEA--uuuutiful with greens around and sun shining after it's long sabbatical..(this word hardly sounds like a holiday man..so sinister na)
Anyway my rueful efforts to getting a job is still a vain story. The day i bag one i am going to tour the nation with my version of "white collared series" ;) Sad but true...but seriously guys this country does not have a job for me. now how sad is that.
am trying to focus on my writing and guess what song is playing in my mind(yashomati maiyya se bole nandlala...) unbelievable ...and its a symphony man.

The other day there was a food fest in Sharan's university and since that is the area i love to take full control over, i cooked the following..
Prawn koliwada, Chicken in coconut curry, paneer makhanwala, biryani and samosas for a count of 20
I was frazzled at the end of the afternoon (not even the day) but it was a huge success. yeah yeah i hear the applause.(LOL). One of my far fetched dream is to open a restaurant but sigh dunno when,where and how. See.. i officially have a licence to owning a restaurant since Shetty is my last name hehehe.(megs u have to be a part of it and palio u have to be there too)

Anyway this was starters my friends The "sfmmngierujfaow" syndrome has started...i shall pen down more often and spruce up sooner than you can imagine

Vegan Shegan

Well, well,
I was at a party last night at a typical Texan Restaurant. As I entered,the environment was kaliedoscopic with people happily fluttering like eager butterflies trying to get in and make reservations an hour earlier than they would actually get to be seated and have their nectar..oh yeah we waited for 1 hr 45mins.
When it was finally time for us to sit peacefully and riff through the 3 paged menu, I was already visualising my order ( a nice simple vegan meal,some veggies some good bean patties etc..SLURP)
Eeeeehhh STOP!! what where duh...NO VEGETARIAN FOOD! My appetite came crumbling down when i saw at a lonely corner of the menu card, printed the words veg meal.And to my utmost disappointment the choices were of varied very healthy assortments: Baked potatoes,Cheese sticks, Baked Beans, Buttered Onions.. Gulpp
Ok so I have no choice I had to order something. I chose the baked potato and onions and told the pretty lady (by the way none of them look ok,they are all pretty..I felt yuck), I want these without meat.Looking at other satisfied eaters with their plate full of Joy, I was wondering if I had the scope of feeling the same..
The pretty waitress came with all our orders and batting her sympathetic eyelids said, "someone ordered these side dishes" EXCUSE ME that's not "side dishes" that's my main course my only choice..
Anyway I excused her for being tommyrot and got all set to eat.
After the pleasantries of cheers and let's dig in..eeeeeeeessshhh what are these red colored bitsies doing on my potatoes? Ok.. They discounted the fact that Bacon belongs to the oink world and not the grass world. Well the imprudent waitress came back at my irritated call ..and she was like well that's baked potato and I was like there is meat in it honey.
She said oh so is bacon meat for you guys?
Do i look stupid or what ? She must come from a long line of Dinosaurs.
I said a meal WITHOUT MEAT Help I am hungry and this woman wont understand .
Finally a man with a better understanding of my plight came to me vouching a replacement and a bagful of apologies.
Ahem..this time it was fine but I pretty much made my own meal adding salt,flavour, and zest to it. People around me chomped to glory asking me whether i was enjoying my meal. I pasted a "wow I am good" smile and ate away..
Hmph so much for a vegan in this world.

Weekend

Well my beginning was of equal appeal to a many and hence I am extremely encouraged to write "MO" ( sorry the accent has to be a part of me now).
Off late I had been lackadaisical about my creativity and had become more of a sofa spud. I used to read two pages of any given novel and shut it. If i tried to write, i couldn't get farther than a horrible line or two. I had to rekindle my "writer's fire". I didn't want to look like a shabby writer in my newest wrinkle ( you know how it is right)...which reminds me of what Keats said about poets and dreamers.

"The poet and the dreamer are distinct,
Diverse,sheer opposite,antipodes,
The one pours out a balm upon the world,
The other vexes it."

I choose to be both at regular intervals.

Well well, it is a joyous Friday and phew the weeknd is in the corner.

Beer and chips I get
Mingle in easy crowd of,
Friday fiesta.

That was my first attempted Haiku.

Also my other ventures into art are a few painintgs that i desire to complete. A Warli fair and a so called abstract painintg. I hope to pass off painting some gibberish and call it abstract but unfortunately i cannot do that( my heart just doesn't permit me to do that)
So! everything seems goody good. The weekend ticks away sooner than it starts. so enjaayy
Trala amigos : )

so i finally started

Hi my fellow bloggers....

No matter how many ingeneous substitues i dream up, there are times like right now when the old fashioned, " Hi " cannot be replaced for a beginning.

Well i did conjure up some courage and fought my laziness to realize that this page for mental and creative gratification was the best ever... ( remember there is an overwhleming bias in the publishing world my friends)

It's a lazy crazy thursday with scattered rain. It pushed me to make a cup of hot lemon tea and here i am sprawling the page with my thoughts.

Ok here's the thing , does this happen to you guys. While i am alomst ready to start writing i am no less than a budding writer with every line placed with perfection and all my arrested thoughts are coming to life and then suddenly i am numb. Honestly i have "wendwioenfwmfrfwrgv xzm" in my head right now. My dazzling train of thoughts has just come to a halt.
will i try my luck again tomorrow
Tralala :)
