| the road trip |
| 09.07.05 (10:45 pm) [edit] |
I know its coming a little late but I just thought that I could slack off a little considering Shrek's [watchout for the story about that] done a fine job with the trips summary. But before I continue there's just one person I'd like to thank. Shraddha [read as Shrek], she's then best person I've come across in a while now. Always ready for an adventure and just as much fun to have around. Shrek, this ones' for you.
My brother, Garry called me up asking me if I'd be interested in going out for a road trip to B.R Hills. Never the one to say no, I called up Khare & Shraddha at 8-9pm to ask them to come along. Both agreed.
The next day we started off around 9am from bangalore and after spending the better part of the morning in town we were finally able to find the way to kanakpura. Unfortunately one of the girls had a major problem with their landlady being a typical indian landlady. She called up the parents, brother, fathers, aunts, uncles, the aliens who landed on the planet yesterday, the neighbours etc. etc. etc. etc. and made sure the girls face maximum resistance to their plan of having a nice time. The other guys (my bros' friends) decided to be gentlemen (much to my brothers dismay) and not go on the trip without that girl.
WE on the otherhand, i.e. Shraddha, Khare and I decided to proceed with out plan. After about an hour of wondergul driving thru the crazy roads of bangalore we hit the highway and even though the sun decided it wanted to torture us for a while, we were enjoying the drive. We stopped midway to grab a cup of tea and omlettes. Thanks bro for the bread and butter. Driving anoter hour we suddenly came across a group of 20-25 people blocking the road with stones and bricks in their hands (don't tell this to mom or dad) without showing any signs of moving away from the road. Seeing them I have to admit brough back some rather disturbing memories of guys pulling out guns to try and stop me. Anyway that's a story for another time. So I decided it was either them or us and decided not to stop, I slowed down to about 10kmph and kept going and everyone but one guy got out of the way of the car. He fell to the side on the grass and then got up trying to chase us (HA, I'm in a car) so we escaped. Later we found out that these guys were mobbin people to gather money for their festival. Having passed the second hurdle a little shaken (but not stirred) we continued our journey. Nearing lunch time we stopped at 'Shivsamudram' to have a look at the mighty 'Cavery' overflowing with water. We stepped into the water at one place only to have clumsy Shrek almost slip and fall into the waterfall. After settling down there was a crab sitting wating to bite her on her 'tush'. [visualize cartoons, with the character flying a mile high].
Sometime later we decided to drive down further and this time the rain gods had a little mercy on us and it started to rain with the road becoming really nice and romantic. Shrek however slept through it all, through the rain, the thunder, the blaring music, the pot holes. Wonder if she'd have woken up if we opened the sun roof with the wather falling on her. [note to self: get a sunroof]. The ride back was nice but the rain that began as a quiet respite for the days events now started to slow us down. I love it anyway. Khare and I had a nice chat and a few more cups of tea while Shrek was sleeping. Sometime later she woke up and the two of us discussed her future career. I sounded like a really old man.
Around 10pm we say a BIG board that read "Welcome to Bangalore: the garden city" and I promise you this isn't a joke, as soon as we crossed it there was a pothole on the road with water filled over the road & traffic jams. We knew we were back in Bangalore. After leaving Khare back home (Shrek's still sleeping) I head towards her house, only we don't quite make it. I have the first FLAT. What the heck I've never had a flat in my car, and now in all this rain. So I get down to find that I don't have the tools to fix it. I took them out in the morning while cleaning my car (Murphy's law). A taxi driver is kind enough to led me his & so I change the flat and drop her back home.
Finally the day's over, there's Dylan singing 'bucket's of rain' on the radio when suddenly a HUGE tree comes crashing down, right in front of the car bringing a few electric poles down with it. I'm so glad it didn't fall on the car when I hear the screeching noise of tyres behind me and a taxi just misses me.
I guess luck really was on our side that day that we all reached back safe. Would I do it again. I'll tell you the next time we do it.
Siddharth
Ps: Shraddha don't mind the shrek, the reason u have it is cause we think he's cute, as are you. We really do love you.

Hi all,
The little lamp post that I saw a few days back in the distance is now growing closer. In other words, the date of my leaving the company i'm in is approaching. I wish I could say the days were passing by in a blur but they're more like a movie in slow mo. At least its not on pause.
Well this blogs for kendy, gautam, nitika & my dear antu. Just to tell those guys that i'm really missing them quite a bit. rao, nitika & antu i'm going to meet at the end of the month. kendy on the other hands missing & i don't know what she's upto. so kendy if you're reading this, leave your mark behind. How u doing? there are a few other people I'd like to hear from, princess, pramit, laura where r u guys?
that's it for now, then next blog of mine's going to be a little more serious, so all those who like to pitch in with advice & all, drop in & check it out.
Ciao for now,
SiD

| FIRE in da hu!! |
| 06.28.05 (1:56 am) [edit] |
Ok! So get this, this weekend was amazing, in a nutshell, the fire, bon-fire, started at 7:30pm Saturday and continued till 6:00am Sunday.
We all got together thinking that we can get back some of the old days with the fire burning and all of us sitting around it with arms stretched towards the dancing flames of fire and thought dancing to the fames of our past. 7pm and people started coming in. we were supposed to be 14 of us but I think at the end only eight turned up. Anyway got the wood out but realized that the weather was just cold enough to feel cold out in the open but not cold enough for there to be a fire so we just decided to play dumsharads and ditch the plan to have the fire (to the dismay of most). DumC’s was fun and everyone forgot about the fire for then. There were a few people who wanted to leave early and they forgot about leaving early too. I guess that means that we were having fun.
Food, gooooooooooood food followed at the place called “elements”. After coming back to my place the temperature had gone down a bit and so we decided to burn the fire. After a little struggle the fire was lit and the stories started flowing like water through a funnel. We played games, told stories & even tried ghost stories with one person after the next falling down into the deep grasp of the night! At almost dawn, 6:00am we finally decided to call it quits and crashed. All in all, it was a nice night!
Maybe someday I’ll create a small movie on it.

| pfff! what a weekend! |
| 06.19.05 (6:45 pm) [edit] |
wow! weekends huh! crazy as the balls on a billiard table & sweet as the honey in the bee's nest!
started off with a series of three plays' titled "audience on the mat", the first being "words" followed by "layaa" & finally "chakravyuh" by a group that calles themselves "MiSF!T - My Interest Stays Firmly In Theatre"
this was basically one man's life at three different stages! really nice & a must see if you get the chance.
that gave way to saturday afternoon! the bottles of wine *smacks lips* & the gooood food made by two very talented people. i can't wait for that to happen again! everyone was just a little high which made the whole day absolutely crazy! got some really good footage of the fun we had that day! after this we all decided to go to a lounge called "Zero G" which also has a dance floor & the video's reel just kept rolling. you had to be there to really know how crazy everyone was. maybe i'll write about everyone a little later.
hope you guys enjoy your weekends as much!

After having remained dormant for so long I think the times finally right for me to write again! not that there's too much happening, in fact the reason that i'm writing again is because i'm just sitting in the office not doing too much!!!
So if there's anyone out there who needs some help with any computer related project that interests me, lemme know.
The last few months have been on an average pretty good! I flew down in a private plane *the biggest grin* landed on a private strip & made ppl turn their heads when they saw me get of the plane into a beautiful Merc SL500 Roadster [i was just about ready to die]...
besides that I finally had my first kiss after what seems like ages! no girlfriend yet however. still single...
what else??? Oh! I also decided that I need to go jumping off clifs and air planes so if there's anyone out there who knows a place near bangalore, india where i can do that, let me know.
that's all for now folks! watch this space for more [don't ask]

| The Cookies |
| 03.28.05 (6:13 pm) [edit] |
|
Disclaimer: I've not written this. Sadly i'm not sure who has...
At an airport one night
With several long hours
Before her flight.
She hunted for a book
In an airport shop,
Bought a bag of cookies
And found a place to drop.
She was engrossed in her book
But happened to see,
That the man sitting beside her,
As bold as could be,
Grabbed a cookie or two
From the bag in between,
Which she tried to ignore
To avoid a scene.
So she munched the cookies
And watched the clock,
As the gutsy cookie thief
Diminished her stock.
She was getting more irritated
As the minutes ticked by,
Thinking, "If I wasn't so nice,
I would blacken his eye."
With each cookie she took,
He took one too,
When only one was left,
She wondered what he would do.
With a smile on his face,
And a nervous laugh,
He took the last cookie
And broke it in half.
He offered her half,
As he ate the other,
She snatched it from him
And thought....ooh, brother!
This guy had some nerve
And he's also rude,
Why he didn't even show
Any gratitude!
She had never known
When she been so galled,
And sighed with relief
When her flight was called.
She gathered her belongings
And headed to the gate,
Refusing to look back
At the thieving ingrate.
She boarded the plane,
And sank in her seat,
T hen she sought her book,
Which was almost complete.
As she reached in her baggage,
She gasped with surprise,
There was her bag of cookies,
In front of her eyes.
If mine are here,
She moaned in despair,
The others were his,
And he tried to share.
Too late to apologize,
She realized with grief,
That she was the rude one,
The ingrate, the thief!
How many times have we absolutely known
that something was a certain way, only to
discover later that what we believed to be true....was not?

| heaven |
| 03.17.05 (8:45 pm) [edit] |
crawling out of the hole
all battered & bruised
waiting to be run over by a freak train
i pop my head out
eyes closed
and hear the sound of birds instead
of the river that flows in the distance
the wind that carries with it
the smell of orchids,
i slowly open my eyes
finding myself in heaven!
am i dead or alive i wonder.
does it matter, i smile...

Hi All,
It's been a while now, hasn't it? Well my office shifted from the center of the city to a place far far away & now I’m out in a jungle (metaphorically speaking). This place is in the middle of nowhere, had really bad food and since I’m using the company transport to come here, I can’t even leave early if I don’t have any work. So I’m quite bummed out about it as it leaves me no personal time for any of the things that I do. So someone please suggest something.
That’s my sad, sad life at the moment.

in the confines of ones mind,
lie the secrets from thou knowledge
think & let thy mind wander
or train it to follow the sorcerers magic wand.
then will you know what lies ahead
or the little star you can't see,
hidden behind the glare of the moon.

| final farewell |
| 11.24.04 (2:18 am) [edit] |
hello G,
This time that i write its for u! regardless of where this life takes me, what i become or what i don't become, i just want you to know that you will always mean the world to me and that I will love you forever. Things could and maybe even should have been different but there's little that can be done now. You were my life, my friend. you knew me more than i knew myself and i could never see a single fault in you. you will forever remain, my angel.
Sadly though, its time to move on and I know you'll understand this. I hope you're having a nice life and the coming days will just become better for you and as impossible as it was for me to do the same, i've finally found someone and i'm just hoping that this time it'll last. Who knows I might even love her, but i will give it my true shot!
With all my undying love to you and a heavy heart, this is the final farewell till fate crosses our paths.
Yours,
Siddharth

| should i say "yes" |
| 11.18.04 (1:00 am) [edit] |
that's the question that i need answered! you guys could do it for me or else i'll have to do it myself.
has anyone ever been faced with this dilema (i can already see a hundred of u typing "yes"). well the problem or rather the dilema that i'm faced with is this!
there's a girl ("there's always a girl", swamy says) and she likes me! a LOT! i'm scared of the other 4 letter word starting with L and ending with an E so i'm not typ'g that but u get the picture right.
now here's some trivia about her
1. 1've known her for real long
2. we get along really well
3. she trusts me a lot
4. i can actually make her laugh (that's a first)
5. she's a FUN person
6. she loves danc'g and music (the same as i do)
7. she's no demanding at all. or whatever little i know of her
8. she's tall. taller than i.
9. i really care about her a lot
10. she's broken up with a guy she could consider marrying, about 4 months! (just as i, ok its been a while but i'm still com'g out of it)
and the last
11. she loves me!!!
now because of my scare of relationships i don't know what to say. I think i want to say yes but then again, is she over her last guy. she says she is totally.
HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

| old willow |
| 11.06.04 (7:05 am) [edit] |
The park bench was deserted as I sat down to read
Beneath the long, straggly branches of an old willow tree
Disillusioned by life with good reason to frown
For the world was intent on dragging me down
And if that weren't enough to ruin my day
A young boy out of breath approached me, all tired from play
He stood right before me with his head tilted down
And said with great excitement, "Look what I found"
In his hand was a flower, and what a pitiful sight
With its petals all worn - not enough rain, or too little light
Wanting him to take his dead flower and go off to play
I faked a small smile and then shifted away
But instead of retreating he sat next to my side
And placed the flower to his nose
And declared with overacted surprise
"It sure smells pretty and it's beautiful, too"
That's why I picked it; here, it's for you
The weed before me was dying or dead
Not vibrant of colors: orange, yellow or red
But I knew I must take it, or he might never leave
So I reached for the flower, and replied, "Just what I need"
But instead of him placing the flower in my hand
He held it mid-air without reason or plan
It was then that I noticed for the very first time
That weed-toting boy could not see: he was blind
I heard my voice quiver; tears shone in the sun
As I thanked him for picking the very best one
"You're welcome," he smiled, and then ran off to play
Unaware of the impact he'd had on my day.
I sat there and wondered how he managed to see
A self-pitying woman beneath an old willow tree
How did he know of my self-indulged plight
Perhaps from his heart, he'd been blessed with true sight
Through the eyes of a blind child, at last I could see
The problem was not with the world; the problem was me
And for all of those times I myself had been blind
I vowed to see the beauty in life
And appreciate every second that's mine
And then I held that wilted flower up to my nose
And breathed in the fragrance of a beautiful rose
And smiled as I watched that young boy
Another weed in his hand
About to change the life of an unsuspecting old man

| Coorgian Weekend |
| 10.26.04 (8:03 pm) [edit] |
|
this weekend, the one that just went by! what can i say about it xcept that it was probably the best that i've had so far.
I was finally able to drag my frnd from office to go out for a weekend of nothing but pleasure and now he wants to stay, work, eat, sleep and dream in coorg. Oh! that's the name of the place that we went to, Madikeri in coorg.
Dashera is a hugly celebrated event here in India, its the christmas for Hindus and it's believed that on this day Lord Rama killed the evil Rawana and everyone here in India celebrated the festival by making huge statues of Rawan and burning him. We heard that there was no other place to see the festival but at coorg so we packed our bags and left.
Once there, we did went to the starting of a holy river and jumped into its freezing water with the priest throwing water over us. its believed that by doing that you wash away all your sins. since i'm not much of a believer I did it cause of the experience and i have to admit, it does feel good. also i hadn't had a bath all morning ;-)
after coming back and having lunch we went for a 20 km trek to a waterfall. the trek was amazing but the waterfall a bit of a disappointment cause of the number of people there. anyway when we reached back the celebrations had started and went all night finally getting over at 6am sunday morning. people were everywhere, everyone from the town and the villages nearby were there celebrating, dancing and having fun...
on our way back we went to a buddhist monastry andi just loved it and want to study buddhism a little more.
Oh! also coorgian girls are amazing. amazing being an understatement. I saw a ball fall down and ran and picked it up looking for who it belonged to. i was about to throw the ball in the direction from which it came when i noticed a very very pretty girl with her hands in the air ask'g for the ball. everything, the whole world just came to a stand still for a few seconds and i forgot to breathe... a few seconds later a little embarrassed i threw her the ball to her. later in the night we bumped into each other and she said "hi" and asked how i was...
"aaaaaa....." was all that came out of my mouth... she just laughed and went away.
there was another girl who was on a bike & was look'g back at me on our trek and all i could think of was smil'g and i did that, and in return i got a sweet sweet smile back. bear! it made me feel great just know'g that people are indeed good...
The coorgian philo. as with the Irish! there's no beer in heaven so we drink here on earth...
Smile and Be Happy.
ps: don't forget to check out the pictures on the side...

ring... ring...
and then i cut the phone! damn, i can't call her. i wouldn't know what to say.
"hey, do u want 2 go out and do something today? my treat :D" that's the message i ended up sending her. God i'm an idiot! y'd i do that? I'll never know that but I think anyone will be able to guess what the reply to that message was.
So here I am writing about it. The message that changed my day. Hey! I did it, I finally asked her out!

Disclosure: This is not because I am sad or upset or anything. Till date there's been only one person I've felt so strongly about and that's the reason for her to be the muse for most of my work. This is just a poem, not a reflection of my state of mind. ------------------------- ----------------------
I turn up the volume,
So i can't hear myself think...
I look at the sun,
so it hides my dark within.
I look out the window,
& I see the children play.
I see my own reflection,
on the hazy waters glaze.
For I know if things quiet down,
or if the storng light dims down.
I'd hear your voice & your face would reappear.
And I turn up the volume,
So I can't hear myself think... ------------------------- -----------------------
Well hope someone likes that 8-)

There's this girl that I want to ask out to lunch or dinner or coffee and i've not admitted this to anyone, but I'm bloody scared of doing it because I'm quite sure she's going to refuse.
WHAT DO I DO? PLZ HELP...

Day: 17th Septemper (My B'Day)
"just wanted to say hi! hope u'r dong great"
That's the message that I ended up send'g her ofcourse without any reply as expected.
"Hey sid! HAPPY B'DAY" I heard over the phone, heard the sweet voice of the girl from Delhi! Now that was enough to make the rest of the day go like a hot knife through butter. After not being able to sleep all night because of calls every 15-30 minutes i finally slept at 5AM only to be woken up by another call at 6. DON'T PEOPLE EVER SLEEP??? *secretly enjoying it*. Came to the office to be greeted by my friends with some nice cake (from another frnds B'Day, but cake never the less) a card and a CD that I picked out :)
Well later in the evening people came over and so did swamy's latest love interest "Dhenuka" (literally translated it means 'cow', go figure...) and we all ended up having a hell of a time. as the party came to an end I left some of the gang back to their respected holes swamy, gujju and dhenuka along with me decided to go grab a cup of coffee. after sneeking into (not really) a medical college and having coffee gujju and i decided to get some juice. Finally back home all happy and High I switched on "Iris" and smiled.
How amazing it is to be alive. Kendy! u'r still to wish me.

| I miss you! |
| 09.15.04 (8:49 pm) [edit] |

Telling the truth won't do,
for that was a surprise to be
God alone knows that I really wanted to make a change
in you and be the first to greatly surprise you.
But it all fell on me and I feel like simply taking my life away though it won't help and God forbid.
I know exactly how you feel about me
for it's not the first time it's happening
and I doubt if you'd ever again give me a genuine smile.
Am sorry from the bottom most part of my heart
and it was never meant to be that way
and will never happen.
But though I've hurt you and I also hurt
I still love myself for I sacrificed myself
and went beyond my pride to make it worth.
Though all gone through and wasted.
God had a perfect reason
and from someone who madly
and frankly love you I'll miss you.
You were and always have been sweet,
I miss the way we used to drive the whole city wild,
I miss your touch comfort and more so Imiss you.
I know I'll never ever be with you again
but whoever loves you better love you the way I did
coz one day you'll realise I love you
but maybe now it's time to move on.
I love you and as long as you happy
I'm happy too and I'll desperately miss you!

Yesterday I went and met her again! God! I like her so much but everytime that I think that I'm reminded of G and that she's right here in Delhi & there is no way that I can do something like this. I know its' not cheet'g or anything but this girl is really nice and doesn't deserve to go thru any of my crap! Besides she lives here in Delhi and I in Bangalore. I dont' think I can handle one of these right now! She has promised me that she'll come and visit me in October & if I still feel like this then I'll think about it but till then tell me if i'm doing the right thing.
I am aren't I?
Today I went & say Shrek-2 with didi & her frnds. I really liked it. It's so cute and i'm amazed what pixar has done with the software that I helped develop (ahem). I'm really quite amazed. No wonder the team won the Oscar (long time back). The evening was really good and it just made me realize how much I love didi. Her frnd was so much fun too.
Siddharth :) happy and hav'g fun.

a few days back I was ment to go out with a girl I really like, or thought that I liked her from the good old days of college. Well never really liked college, but then that's another story.
Well 8pm and I was supporsed to mean this girl in Vasant Vihar (New Delhi) to catch up on old times. There I see a familiar face with a broad smile walk'g toward me and I presume that's her. I know, I'm bad and I don't really remember people well but then at that time (college) I was really messed up. I met her, gave her a huge hug and then realized:
"She's not the one I was supposed to meet!" though I
"Hey!!! How come u'r here?" I said.
"Radhika (name changed) wanted me to tell you that she wouldn't be able to make it." she said?
"her name's sheetal (name changed)" I remembered.
"She's really sorry about this." she said.
"What happened?" I said
"is this a joke?" I'm think'g
"She's got work and her boss won't let her go"
"Oh! anyway, its' so nice to see u. Tell me where can I take you?" I say
"there's a McDonalds, wanna go there?"
"sounds good!"
and so we spent some time together and it was really good! just left me think'g if it was all premeditated??? Anyway I offered to drop her home but she had her own car so we desided to grab some ice-cream and walk arnd for a while. It was a nice evening and we're meeting again wed/thu.
It's just so good to meet old frnds. Gautam came to pick me up from the airport i'd forgotten how close we guys were. These are my friends & i adore them. Gautam, A... u guys make me feel so good. Thank u guys.
