Abeer Appropriates!

. so theres tons of things id like to say and talk about, but because i either run out of time or am not creatively up to it, id rather not be the person that blogs for the sake of blogging.

. first. an open letter.
To the Person in Office Who Took my Green Lays Packet (Sour Cream and Onion Flavour),
I dont like that flavour anyway. However, I shall hunt you down for stealing my packet of Lays when I'd securely kept it in my 'Have a Nice Day- DiGi' bag. This is not over!
A.

. second. also an open letter.
To the Mosquitoes Who Keep Biting Me At Night And Singing Into My Ears,
i dont have much blood. stop it or ill file a case against you. also, your incessant bites are giving me panda eyes, making me look sick at work and increasing my concealer use- i cant afford concealer so stop. if you wont, its on [ill be buying my third electronic racket tonight]. i know you can read this.
A.

. thirdly. i have decided to travel to work the desi way- with the radio blasting through my eardrums rather than my iPod tunes, the way i see hundreds of commuters do everyday in buses, trains, cars and roads. but here's whats freaky. the radio decides what mood i should be in for today. like yesterday, i was happy, but the most emo and tearjerking songs were on play. i didnt think it was much of a sign, except that i turned blue for the entire day and couldnt get out of playing the monstrously sad song that is Kyun Mein [something i forgot] from Patiala House. i talked to a friend and he told me not to listen to stuff that would get me down and lo and behold, on the way back from work, that same damn song was playing again! needless to say, i know now that whatever i am meant to be feeling for the day, will be played out in dhinchak desi songs on the way to and from work. word.

. i heard something awesome on the radio today that had me giggling like a school girl. actually, scratch that. i always giggle like that. so the joke's a rajnikanth joke.
'rajnikanth used to go to school. do you know what happened when one day he didnt want to go to school and didnt attend?
no. what happened?
that day is now known as sunday'.

. i also heard an ad on the radio. its a new campaign that cadbury is taking out- called shubh aarambh. the whole point of this campaign is to basically get people to eat cadbury before starting out something new or good. its an extension from the previous campaign which was about the same thing, because in india, before we start something new, we start it with something sweet, so that everything goes well. anyway, this campaign is about not leaving things till tomorrow and instead doing whatever the good deed was now, and not procastinating and waiting for a good time to start. so this radio campaign starts with this dude's voice who says, 'every time you decide that you will start that good deed on a monday. every monday you say next monday and wait for the next monday. mondays turn into weeks and soon its years until you dont get your work started. [insert rest of commercial] stop it. start whatever you planned to do, today. forget mondays. stop waiting for mondays. whatever you want to do, do it today.' incidentally, this was yesterday, which was a monday. ironic non?

. time, is what i need, and time is what i have, but dont have.

. i will be reblogging the most amusing blog post i have just found. soon i will follow it up with something similar of my own.

. does anyone know where i can buy the minion from 'despicable me' at? i.need.to.own.one. that or i must produce a child that talks like Agnes from the same movie!

. what is UP with people not commenting on this blog! whaaaaai you no comment!

. i just read my own previous line (the own above) and thought that i wrote something about UP, Uttar Pradesh, a state in india, until i realised that i wrote the english word, up. honestly, there isnt a more desi-er mistake than this.
