Why Ohh Why-Its Over


Take a bow, the night is over This masquerade is getting older Light are low, the curtain's down There's no one here (There's no one here, there's no one in the crowd) Say your lines but do you feel them Do you mean what you say when there's no one around (no one around) Watching you, watching me, one lonely star (One lonely star you don't know who you are)
I've always been in love with you (always with you) I guess you've always known it's true (you know it's true) You took my love for granted, why oh why The show is over, say good-bye
Say good-bye (bye bye), say good-bye


Make them laugh, it comes so easy When you get to the part Where you're breaking my heart (breaking my heart) Hide behind your smile, all the world loves a clown (Just make 'em smile the whole world loves a clown) Wish you well, I cannot stay You deserve an award for the role that you played (role that you played) No more masquerade, you're one lonely star (One lonely star and you don't know who you are)
Say good-bye (bye bye), say good-bye
All the world is a stage (world is a stage) And everyone has their part (has their part) But how was I to know which way the story'd go How was I to know you'd break (You'd break, you'd break, you'd break) You'd break my heart
I've always been in love with you (I've always been in love with you) Guess you've always known You took my love for granted, why oh why The show is over, say good-bye
Say good-bye (bye bye), say good-bye Say good-bye

Bindra My Hero

Abhinav Bindra won the Gold & yet has his feet firmly grounded. That’s a hero, a shy human, those eyes which shot him to fame, have a story to tell. People just crib of being less fortunate & would blame their shortcoming for their defeat, taming your shortcomings to your advantage is what winners do & so did Abhinav, how else can you imagine a person with minus point vision to aim so perfectly. A lot is done by the atheletes but this is different. Abhinav not only did India proud but instantly became my Hero. He was there, did his work with his utmost sinceretly & dedication, won it & came back. He didn’t intend to hog the limelight, which so rightfully was his. His perfect moment… standing on the dice at the first position to receive the mendallion & his eyes shone with Prideof having accomplished something for his nation. He wore the medal & India had an overnight hero. Hats off to Bindra for having accomplished something of such genre without any government backing. He is a self made man, & his accomplishements are his to cherish & are totally to his credit, that’s the reason you can see his eyes swell with pride & the golden lusture in his eyes. I believes success can make a person blind but here success makes no difference on him & inspires him to achieve more. India, & not only India the world needs such heroes.

Rakhi

Yesterday was busy…took my family to a sweet shop for purchasing sweets for Rakhi….not sure of the time they took but to brief it up-they took way too long. I always thought ladies could spend the whole day shopping, but hello here we are talking of buying Rakhi sweets & only one shop to choose from & still the time they took was enormous & defiantly massive. Then it came to choosing Rakhis & I am sure all of the guys who have sisters have experienced the mixed emotions while talking their sister out to buy rakhis that they just cant make up their minds on which one to take. They will like a rakhi & then will waste 2 hours finding a better one & then will be contented with the one they laid their eyes on earlier & will walk away with it as if it was the most priced & uniques ornament that would embrace their brother’s wrist. Well tired & then had to pick up my cousin who was coming to do the Rakhi rituals. Told her to get off at IFFCO chowk without realizing it would be a mess to spot her(but perhaps that was the best & most convenient place for her to reach). Tried hard to explain at what corner I was waiting, she didn’t have a clue. We waited & then after much waiting & after much phonecall exchanges she happened to reach the right me. It was a long story, she got off at a road before the one I told her to get off & then she had this weird thing that she was standing at the place I told her to stand. She was standing at the place but she had a different frame of refernce from mine. Ohh tiring enough….off we go to our home…..Oops Buddy was alone alone for hours…he had to do his business so got home & took him for a stroll…..ok so my cousinn had bought a chinese cell which had 8 speakers….massive gigantic sound it made….amusing….it kept me hooked for a couple of hours……then ofcourse I realised I wanted to watch some TV…..which further tired me down to my ankles. Dinner was late as all were tired & bhabhi was working on a lot of dishes…..woops finally the day wrapped up & I slept only to get up at 5AM & get ready for office……office was smooth….but yes I felt tired and lazy & had a slight headache from the non alcoholic hangover…seems I needed to catch up on my sleep. Work in office is done but look at the stupid rules….you need to spend 9 hours in office whether you have work or not, whether you like it or not, the stupid system of Time in & Time out, makes me feel I am still in some school. Well waiting to complete those 9 hours to be finally home & just drop dead on my creaky bed if at all it is possible.
Sometimes a creaky sound could be a lullaby; it is just what I need.
