F5... :)

Well the Dreams post really got to me… with all the comments and off the blog discussions have put me in some other land … A land that is beyond my imagination right now…
And a friend said with all these posts you seem like a sad person… not happy with life…
WHOA!!!!

I need to refresh!!! F5! F5!!!

What refreshes me? (in random order)

Music (current fav.. Mauja hi Maujha from Jab We Met)
My Books (love Harry Potter)
Tea (ginger mandatory)
Conversations (not the heavy dose… right now I am staying clear of them)
Shoppinggggggggg (All girls in unison say Hurray)
Dance (Ahh!! The ultimate stress buster. Dance doesn’t care what the mood thinks.)
Laughing my head off with my roomies. (nothing we talk makes sense. Sonica, Pinky, Renu, Khushi, Prachi... I love them all)
Just laughing my head off.

Walking alone form the bus stop. (I sleep in the bus. The moment I get down I am not thinking anything and then slowly thoughts return. I love it)
Mums half-sleepy hug when she sees me at the door step at midnight after I come home from Pune. (I feel safe. Moment of bliss)
Jab We Met!! (Damn!! I love the movie.)
When my mobile rings and it’s a call form US. (Sejal calling)
Neha, Pallvai and me chatting and all the discussions which make us feel like angels on earth (we always end up screwing our lives with our over the top ideas about it)
Fighting with Pritam. (I guess it will exhaust his patience soon)
All the nautanki I do with Kunal. (and he really is amazed at what new I can come up with)
Saturday.
Tropical Iceberg of CCD. (nasik CCD… me and my friends)
Make ups after the silly fights!!! (and with 6 roomies… what else can we expect.. Well Sonica needs a special mention here... She always takes the first step)
Going home to fried fish and lots of chicken ( i live with veggies)
Yana. (not another person… sizzlers!!!!!!!!!)
Shahid Kapoor (oooooooooo damn he is soooooooooooo cute)
SMS from Bank ( your xyz salary has been credited into ur acoount.. RELIEF :) )
Someone coming up and returning money which I had totally forgottena bout ( I suck at managing my finance)
Sitting and cribbing how marriage is a big responsibility (singles discussing the same thing all over again)
Coffee break from work. (although most of the time I am void of work)
Scanning through all the silly snaps I have clicked from my mobile ( they make great memories)
Finding that exact shade of dress which I had in my mind ( merawala greeeen!!! :) )
Picking up a dress and realizing that it fits me RIGHT. ( with my size.. finding clothes of size is a miracle.. I do blv in GOD then)
A compliment. (well it refreshes anybody)

The list can go on…
But I guess I can take my fingers off the keyboard… I have achieved what I set out to do.. Refresh myself….

Haa!!!!!!!!!! Life is beautiful!!!

Adding to the list .. Writing a post on my blog…

Dreams!!!

With Dreams Begin responsibiltities...

I dreamt of flying high,
I looked at the birds and sighed.
The Wright brothers dreamt of flying high,
They built the plane and their dream soared high.

I know it seems like I have just picked it up from the books of a kindergarten student.
Rather Twinkle Twinkle is far better.

Dreams! Everybody has them.

Turn the pages of a slam book from school. “To be rich and famous”. Every alternate page will flaunt these famous words. It’s been 8 years since I left school. Have yet to meet the rich and famous. We can argue that was silly, it was school.

Traveling back to the present. “Kuch karna hai yaar.” “This is not what I want to do.”
Great!That’s good. Ask what is it that you want to do. And the answer is silence.
Abhi socha nahi hai.. maybe this maybe that….Aage life bohot hai yaar… abhi se kya tension.. sochenge kuch…
RIGHT!!! Ask parents!! They will give us the theory of tensions in precise words.

If I am pointing a finger, 3 are pointing back at me. “Padhna hai Padhna hai.. aage padhna hai”. I wanted to do PG. There were some issues, yes. But the nail was that I never tried. I always had reasons to not give the exams. Dreamt of big colleges. Never woke up to them. Finding reason as to why I studying was not possible, I gave up.I was responsible for my dreams failing. Neither finance nor the prospect of shaadi… (Man what lame excuses I had).

We are responsible for our own dreams. Dreams just don’t fulfill themselves while we are sleeping. I guess we need to wake up and take a step towards it.

I know a real life story of a young man chasing his dreams with passion.

Meet Yash Mody.
We both started with the same organization. We both quit. I went looking for another job. He went looking for his dreams. He wanted to be on his own.
A heart break. No job. Lost friends. I guess he had pretty reasons to fail.
He didn’t.
With some hefty job offers he could have just given up and started the same life all over again. He had faith.Started on his own. Started a consulting agency. Today he is training engineers in every big organization. Today he is hiring. And he is still dreaming.

I still have some friends who want to be on their own. I don’t really see them doing anything about it. And most of the times I feel it’s the cluelessness about where and how to start that pulls us back.

As of now I have no BIG dreams. I am yet to find out what I really want. When I mean dreams I am not refrerring only to the flamboyant dreams.

I have a dream. I want to be physically fit. Healthy.
Stop laughing!!!
People say I am thin. Very thin. I know absolutely that my stamina is poor.
I started with my gym and healthy eating habits. A month and it’s down the drains.
All I needed was some dedication. I needed to be responsible.
I will start again. Hopefully this time history won’t repeat itself.

I have no rights to write this post. I am no preacher or motivation GURU. This blog is just a relief for my over worked thoughts.


I have a few questions… Someday I hope to get them answered…
Is it mandatory to dream?
What if we tried but still the dream is distant?
What if a new dream is better?
Are dreams such a big deal?

Don't be pushed by your problems. Be led by your dreams.
