Coffee?? @

The sea was singing its own tune.. The two were walking along the shore.. hand in hand.. looking at the waves lashing at their feet, wetting them by every lap it took... He loved it...

They spent that evening watching the sunset; having dinner together; dancing at the local bar... He loved it..

He took her to his room and switched off the lights.. They made love that night.. It was sweet.. He loved it..

They woke up in the morning to the chirps of the birds... He wanted some coffee.. She wanted her money..

Let me clarify that I am in no intention to follow SJ Suryah's footsteps.. So, this blog has got NOTHING to do with stuff that might come to your brains after seeing the title.. **bad boyz** .. They are just the different temperature zones that I have been to over the weekend.. I left Bangalore when it was a comfy 34*c , went to a furnace like city called "Singara Chennai" where it was nothing less than 45*c.. And then back to Bangy today morning to a pleasant 32*c.. Well, all that within a distance of 300 kms.. Cha, too many numbers....

But it was one mondo weekend... Actual plans was to go to Rowdy's kalyaanam and have a nice time... Aana, around 1 in the afternoon, I got a surprise sms from Dreamvendor. Apparently, there was a chennai blogger's meet and "variyaa" appadinnu kooptaaru.. Sooper da nnu solli I decided to go.. It was at Barista's in T.Nagar...

(pic courtesy: Ravi.... L to R: Hari, Vikkki, Dreamvendor, Chikuado, Sophia)

It was the first time I met up with Dreamvendor, Chikuado, Sophia, Ravi and Hari... (Well, some names have been changed to protect their privacy.. ;) !!!!! )... Nalla impression pannanum nnu solli, "Learn English in 5 hours" book elaam padichittu ponein.. Aana elaam total waste.. Poi paatha, elaam namma pasanga thaan ;)

Ravi was from "namma ooru bengalooru", aana he is now in Chennai.. Watta pity... Enna paavam panaaro! :D

Hari.. Mr.Silent, but looked all the part a gentleman, unlike a certain someone I know (read Vikkki).. :p

Dreamvendor.. Been reading his blogs for a looong time, but first time we got to meet.. We had actually decided that the first time we met, we would go for a cinema.. First half was to a movie that he liked and the second half to one that I liked.. (Given that our taste of movies differ tooooootallllly)... Thanks for inviting me to the gathering buddy.. had a lovely time..

Chikuado.. Well, for sometime I used to wonder if that was her real name.. I mean, seriously.. Then I would tell myself, cha irukaadhu.. Used to wonder what her name would be.. The following was the list of probable names of Chikuado that I had.. * Varalakshmi, Vasanthi, Gokila, Abirami..... Aana, total flop.. Her real name wasnt on my list :( .. Planned to buy an egg as her bday present.. Aana, Barista naaridum nnu solli, I decided against it..

Sophia.. She is very good when it comes to describing Driver-Passenger chemistries.. Wanna know more, u need to ask her.. She was silent early on... Aana oru ceiling fan maathiri, slow aa she picked up momentum... Still, I dont understand the necessity to teach Chemistry to LKG students... :(

I had to leave early as I had to meet up with the "Om Boyz and Galz" at Arathi's wedding reception.. As an added bonus, we also got to meet up with "Om-Maatha" (MGK mam).. After a little chit-chat, Mam had to leave.. We carried on with our lollus and nakkals and we left the reception hall at around 9. Also got to meet Manjula and Lakshmi (my school mates) at Arathi's wedding.. Nice to have seen them after such a looong time!

Next Day I skipped the marriage... it was too early in the morning and I didnt have company.. Om-Boyz had gone to an orphanage and donated some "kindness" to the children there.. More abt that on Aravind's blog.. I met up with them in the afternoon at Hotel Radha Park Inn for Arun President and Swami Kazhudhai's treat.. They were treating us for getting a job.. The fact that they got their job a whole year ago is a different topic altogether.... The fish and Carrot Halwa were awesome.. Not that the rest of the food wasnt great.. Sooper lunch.. thanks da President and Kazhudhai...

Met Dalavai after a VERY long time.. The guy has taken a week off from work to come down to Chennai from Pune.. Nice to have caught up with him over the weekend.. Another imp. person I met over the weekend was "Baby" Varun.. Thalai romba busy paarunga, avaru mail kooda panna maataaru..

After the lunch, I drove straight to Adyar to meet up with my Orkut buddies, Peepi, Jayanth, Mosh and Guru at "Coffee?"... Was meeting Guru for the first time.. Nice guy him.. Spent around 3 hours there ( the fact that i had spent 2 hours waiting for Ms.Peepi and Mr.Jayanth to turn up is another matter)... Oru 7:30kku angendhu kalambi, I reached home at 8.. Paatha, there was no electricity at home.. The 45 degrees felt more like 100 degrees as I could see my sweat turn into vapor and escape into the air.. OOf!!!! Just couldnt wait to get into the bus and head for Bangalore..

Reached Bangalore at 4.30 today morning..

Watta Weekend!!! :)

Imagination at work... @
By Whoosh 2 @ 9:23 pm      8 Comments
Thats what my company's logo says... But right from my childhood I have noticed that I have done the best "imagination" only when I am asleep.. So, maybe I should ask my manager if I can do some REAL "Imagination" at work! ;)

I made a totally different start to the week, which I hope would change my entire outlook towards things. I usually start my monday mornings with Idli and Vada for breakfast. Today though, I had Masala Dosa.. So, lets see how this change changes my week.. :)

Life is friggin worthless... @
By Whoosh 2 @ 5:33 am      10 Comments
Sunday afternoons.. Time for a little introspection.. Get up late, eat ur heartful and await the lazy afternoon.. Make plans for the evening, and **** things get screwed up..****. Gets me into one of those moods.. One of those moods that I wish that I was the only person around.. One of those moods where I feel It wasnt worth being there at all.. One of those times when the Vikkki facade moves over a little and the Vikram fellow peeps out.. One of those times that I find the most hard to handle..

S5's "Kangalai Nambaadhey.. Adhu Unmai Solaadhey" plays in the background.. Hurts me even more.. How true that is.. Sometimes makes u feel if it is all worth it? Is this life worth what we are doing.. Makes me feel that I keep doing something pointless.. Wasting my time.. Wasting my life.. Wasting my life by not doing things that I really love doing.. Wasting my life by not being with the people I really love being with.. Not being with family.. Not being with friends.. hurts more.. It was this life that made me create the Vikkki facade.. The facade that people take for granted to be ME. The facade that is soooo untrue about me.. The facade that I have taken for granted too.. The facade that I know deep inside to be just the mask that I have had to wear for this **** society.. To help me smile at all the bull**** thats happening around me.. The crap that I can really do nothing about... It is at these times when Vikram comes out that I realize the real me.. The Me that I hope no one ever gets to see..

I hate Vikkki.. I love Vikram.


Vikram.

Auditions Today.... @
By Whoosh 2 @ 9:04 pm      4 Comments
BANGALORE HERALD
Bangalore, May 4:

Auditions for the part of "Students" for 'the Great IIIT play' begins in Bangalore today. More than 700 aspirants compete for the around 150 roles that need to be filled for the two year long 'Great IIIT play'. Auditions will be held over the next three days for actors from all over India. They will be tested at their abilities to fake answers to questions, talk proper English and withstand nonsense above else. If selected, the actors might need to play additional roles like Teaching Assistant, Research Assistant and Canteen Supervisor.

"I would suggest the current aspirants to talk to their predecessors before going for the auditions", said a former actor of the 'Great IIIT play' who didnt want to be identified. The Great IIIT play is now in its 7th year and for further information, people can visit the website http://www.iiitb.ac.in.
