What I've Done

Here's a few pointers:

1. Do not try to sit on the kitchen counter with a pot of milk right behind you. (In my case it was more like sitting ON the pot of milk) Under any circumstances - DO NOT do this right after having a bath. Your butt is liable to reek of milk. *gag*
2. If one pack of spaghetti is too much, cook only half of it at a time. Now, don't let your cook talk you into storing the rest of it in the refrigerator. Even if you do, try not leaving it in there for a year. You will wonder why i am telling you this. Pretty simple, really. The spaghetti won't cook even if you let it boil for half an hour.
3. Don't put your money in your pocket in a crowded bus. It is likely to fall out, thus ensuring that you are penniless for the rest of the month. (okay so i only have 5 days to go - but i DID lose a hundred bucks!!!!!! *kills self* )
4. It is all very well to want to go to worli sea face, but don't overdo it and go before 5.30 - in case you haven't noticed, its summer. Its HOT!!!
5. If you have glasses, take them off and put them away. The salt from the sea puts beautiful scratches on those ancient glasses.
6. Inform your friends to point out the important points around you. That way you're not likely to bang into people or things once your glasses are off. (The greatest part about not wearing your glasses is that you can escape all those dirty looks. Unfortunately, Kushal takes to joining 3 fingers and poking them into your eyes every now and then)
7. Do not laugh at people who are running for cover when it starts raining. Once it starts raining, its going to feel like a million pin-pricks all over you. And, you have to run home once you start looking like a drowned rat.
8. Sleeping at 4 am when you have driving class at 7.30 am (and you're obsessive about your bath) is not a good option. You tend to fall asleep at the wheel.
9. IMP : You can take the woman out of a blond, but you can't take the blond out of a woman. Proof: Ellen DeGeneres Show. Cameron Diaz - SOOOO blond even though she's got dark hair now.
10. Everyone does not get a Jude Law, sadly enough, who will build you a tent, give you hot chocolate with 5 marshmallows, pretend to be Mr. Napkin Head, wear cute geeky glasses AND look hot and kiss well into the bargain. *sigh*
11. Everyone doesn't get a Jack Black either who uses words like Brill, looks imminently adorable and composes a tune solely for you. (luff luff luff)
12. If you ever make a movie called "The Duck Flick", try not divulging the main plot to ANYONE. Or you are gonna be SOOOOO dead.
13. While selecting gangster names, avoid "Changu-mangu", "Bala Thakkur", "Chhota Dee/Bada Dee" (these seem like they're out of dexter anyways). And no you CANNOT call the gang THE DEE GANG. Not too gangsterish if you get my drift.
14. Do not hurl your brand new driver's lisence at people in the dark. They will duck, Matrix ishtyle, and then the driver's lisence will be lost to sight.
15. Last but not the least - actually keep awake at a pyjama party. Its so much more fun :D

Thats all for now folks.

Oh and do watch My Fair LAdy of you haven't seen it already. Wit, humour, sarcasm galore.

Vanngo, Pongo, Ille.

Yawn. That's about all i do all damned day. But know what? I'm proud of meself. Yes sirreee. (I'm saying this now cause i won't be oh-so-proud after i flunk my driving exam tomorrow. I swear i know nothing!! I always leave the cluthch by that little bit more which, my instructor tells me, is sure to get me a big fat F before i move an inch. sigh.)

OMG. I am jabbering away on MSN.. turns out Shivaji - The Boss is not even in Hindi and i have agreed to watch it!! *dies*
I am SO keeping my cell off when i sleep.. that we evil evil people will not call and convince me to watch these sad-ass movies.
I need a life. and fast. Anybody selling one??
(salomi is very diplomatically declining the tempting invitation to watch shivaji. kushal hasn't said either ways)

Getting back.

Okay there is no point updating when i'm talking to 4 other people and having a lot of fun while kushal makes up her stories.. This time its something about a blue eyed boy and a brown eyed girl. The chaps got broad shoulders and all those delicious things *wink* She is basically blind. She can only see him when lightning flashes. Which probably means that he is not in human form - but he becomes human when lightning strikes.
That is all i have gathered of the story. I had to leave. I know this is a cliffhanger and all - but i'm sure you'll survive.

24 hours later:

I have seen Sivaji (note: no "H") and i think i have seen everything i have ever wished to see.
We are probably the only tamil-unknowing gujjus who ever went fora tamil movie.6 people who haven't a darned clue about what is going on. Karishma murmurs some hints. We think she KNOWS (you know) cause her sis has seen the movie. So she tells us about this song which sposedly means "The Sun Can't Affect Me, The Moon Can't Affect Me, I Am White" No this not a racially discriminating statement. We only understood 3 words in the song - Sun, Moon, White. And we were fairly sure Rajni wanted to get fair. We asked the lady in front of us during the interval about what exactly happened. She said taht Sivaji was talking about how he was going to turn from a snake into a lion (that tied up very nicely with teh sudden roar they included) Which brings me to tigers. I officially give up upporting tigers. Seeing as there were people with LARGE bellies dancing with yellow paint nd tiger stripes all over them and Sivaji's face on said bellies. SCAAAAAARYYYYYY!
There were more song sequences than in 5 hindi movies put together. When the lead actress wasn't crying, she was wearing electric blue hot-pants and dancing with abandon. Rajni's fighting was as fantastic as ever (NOTE: Fantastic: adj. Quaint or strange in form, conception, or appearance) Although there wasn't the whole bit where you cut a bullet into two with a knife, he DID have these boomerang guns, guitar machine guns, guitar covers lined with AK 47s and others of the sort.
Our usual bursts of laughter were greeted with not-so-cheerful "shut up"s from the audience. After some time, we joined in with the "oohs" everytime he succeeded with his wonder tricks. The doorman was, i believe, passing on tidbits of the plot to Sonam.
At the end of it, we came out in tears of laughter. We walke from Aurora to King's Circle in a half-drunken state. Then, we stood at King's Circle and enacted scenes from the movie and moved on. I kept bursting into laughter while walking by myself - so i had to call up people on the phone - that way i didn't seem a COMPLETE lunatic. I was even laughing from inside the bathroom (i laughed so much i HAD to pee!)

And now me is sleepy. And since this memorable day has been recorded, i may rest at peace.

PS : Aiyo, Did i mention Kushal's new movie is gonna be based on this wunnerfully inspiring "Sivaji"??

PPS : Thank god for BINGO chips ads. We were able to rejoice every time we heard the words Vaango, Ukaarango and Pongo. Since we already knew words like Amma and Appa.. that made our vocab total upto 5. Awesome init??

Coool.

If You Fail Once - Give Up.. No Point Being Stupid About It...
