When I meant I have many flute music moments in a day , its more like I have many -a- moment in the day when someone asks me a question and in my head I'd go - Get that flutist out here !
For example :
1, You're a micro biology student .. How come you're a copy writer in an event management company ... ?
Ummm.. (with back ground score) .. So my dad fell ill and I had to keep myself busy.....
2, How come you're drinking thums up ?
(With Background score) .. So the store ran out of diet coke and I searched and searched....
3, You look so tired , Dee . what happened ?
(With back ground score) .. So this event business , slave labour I tell you ...
There Zofo .. Pretty good huh ? The explaination ..
Just because I have many flute music moments , it doesnt mean I fall in love all the time .. :) . Silly boy.
I'm using it on a more generic level.
And yes m.a.d , 100% agree but I wouldn't go so far as to poke their eyes out. Work on that negativity dude. Its a disease.
Lady Beryl . Well what can I say... I watched the movie more than five times. I admit. I never ever noticed that. Now I feel judged. Upside down is it .. Intriguing.
Come back y'all .

Flute Music
So this is a stolen concept type blog post.
So typical Hindi Movie scenario - We have rich heroine and really poor orphan hero , right ?
So they sit in some isolated corner at a party or a beach ..
And heroine goes on and on about her life and mama, papa, fast sports car, short skirts and extremely fluffy doggies .
She then directs question to hero - Tumhare ghar main kaun kaun hai ?
And this , my friends , is the perfect setting for a flute music moment.
Ever noticed how the hero's eyes go all misty and there's flute music in the background.
The hero then finds the right time to break eye contact with the pretty lady and talk to the camera.
Mr. Vallore says if the woman is paying attention to the back ground score, she'd know whats coming and fall in love with him anyway and then go through getting kicked out of the house, go from wearing short skirts to sarees and then having children . Never mind. I digress.
So I have many 'flute music' moments in a day . I do . Honest.
Moving Right Along....
Also. Welcome to Iyer Up the Ladder ,Dr.Pissed , I hate cloves in those laddoos too. Vortex of negativity. HE is really. Meditate. You need to let some positive energy in.
Thank you once again Lady Beryl. What would I do without your constant chanting?

Let there be love.
So I'm going to let you in on a little secret .. I'm in love . And its true.
And no.. Its not one of these I'm in love with Joaquin Phoenix or Noel Gallagher type posts. Although those be nice too. :)
I'm talking about being in love with a boy. A real boy. His name is Vipul Ganatra. And he's a rock star.
We work together at Phase 1. Which means that I only know him for a little more than two months. And as cliche as this sounds, it seems like I 've known him for so much longer.
So I admit , I had one teeensy crush on him on the first day of work , and then the crush got bigger and bigger and by the end of the week , it was like one of those ... everytime he looked at me or paid me any attention , those butterflies were really doing all those cliched things that people say they do in their stomach ... ( it seems that my fear of being called cliched has lead to me writing inane nonsense.)
Anyway .. I will now proceed to list out the reasons why Vipul 'Rock Star ' Ganatra rocks my world .. (oh no ! Is there no end to this corniness !! heave .. sob .. )
Here it is Ganatra. Prepare to be embarassed out of your wits. I love you.
1, I'll never forget the way you looked at me the day I told you that I was the rain child.
If anyone is looking for anything mushy here .. scroll down lots..
It was more a look that said ' umm .. does anyone know where Oum picked up this demented person? Send her back to there please. She needs help .. from men in white lab coats. '
But that day I knew that I was falling for you.
2, I will never ever forget how you were there for me when my dad passed away. And how you still are there for me everytime I need you.
3, Despite my superior copy skills ( all you cynics may leave now) , I cant find the words to explain how I feel when you're around the office. You dont have to talk to me. Just knowing that you're there in the vicinity makes me feel hyper secure.
4, You always listen to all the silly things I have to say , even if I say three like I've had a few teeth knocked out and actually encourage things like me wondering what my surname would be like if I ever marry you .. hehe
5, Conversations about Naina and Sahil ( needs to be worked out, man ... ). Conversations of Khushi and colour coordination. Conversations of Jo , the Dil-man. I'm smiling already.
6, All those times I was a little insecure or paranoid ,it will never cease to amaze me how you have the patience to put up with me reading your messages and msn history and actually answering questions I would ask you instead of telling me to mind my own business and respect your pivacy . ( which is the gyan that I would give you by the way , if you tried something like that ..just kidding .. ok ,, may be not ).
7, I love that you come home to dinner and play chess with my sister. I also love that you have been talking about buying me a birthday present since July 12th and that hasn't happened yet.
8, As many times as I've told you this , I want you to know that I respect you so much for the kind of person you are, that you know seven languages, that you won those debates in all those languages . I guess the best man did win.
9, There are too many things to list out here Ganatra. And I prolly didnt mention a lot of hyper special things we've shared. But when I'm with you , theres no where else I'd rather be and when you're around , I have everything I need. Especially if you come around with a can of Diet Coke and a Snickers Bar, then I wouldn't even be lying.
10, I just want you to know that I'm not ever going away ( hmm .. even though I mean this as a sign of reassurance , I think it came out as a threat) . But seriously, Im here to stay . Not because you might want me to , but because I want to.
My good friend Noel Gallagher asked to make special apprearance on the post :
I could be your lover, You could be all mine.
We go on forever ,Till the end of time.
You could be my best friend ,Stay up all night long.
You could be my railroad ,We'd go on and on.
Lets get along There's nothing here to do.
Lets go find a rainbow.
No one can break us
No one could take us
If they tried

Harry Potter .. The magic is contagious .. teehee
Thiswas sent to me from one friend. Heehee..
Purely in the interests of science, I have replaced the word "wand" with "wang" in the first Harry Potter Book Let's see the results...
"Why aren't you supposed to do magic?" asked Harry.
"Oh, well -- I was at Hogwarts meself but I -- er -- got expelled, ter tell yeh the truth. In me third year. They snapped me wang in half an' everything
A magic wang... this was what Harry had been really looking forward to.
"Yes, yes. I thought I'd be seeing you soon. Harry Potter." It wasn't a question. "You have your mother's eyes. It seems only yesterday she was in here herself, buying her first wang. Ten and a quarter inches long, swishy, made of willow. Nice wang for charm work."
"Your father, on the other hand, favored a mahogany wang. Eleven inches.
Harry took the wang. He felt a sudden warmth in his fingers. He raised the wang above his head, brought it swishing down through the dusty air and a stream of red and gold sparks shot from the end like a firework, throwing dancing spots of light on to the walls
"Oh, move over," Hermione snarled. She grabbed Harry's wang, tapped the lock, and whispered, 'Alohomora!"
The troll couldn't feel Harry hanging there, but even a troll will notice if you stick a long bit of wood up its nose, and Harry's wang had still been in his hand when he'd jumped - it had gone straight up one of the troll's nostrils.
He bent down and pulled his wang out of the troll's nose. It was covered in what looked like lumpy gray glue.
He ran onto the field as you fell, waved his wang, and you sort of slowed down before you hit the ground. Then he whirled his wang at the dementors. Shot silver stuff at them.
Ok I have found, definitive proof that J.K Rowling is a dirty DIRTY woman, making a fool of us all
"Yes," Harry said, gripping his wang very tightly, and moving into the middle of the deserted classroom. He tried to keep his mind on flying, but something else kept intruding.... Any second now, he might hear his mother again... but he shouldn't think that, or he would hear her again, and he didn't want to... or did he?
Something silver-white, something enormous, erupted from the end of his wang
Then, with a sigh, he raised his wang and prodded the silvery substance with its tip.
'Get - off - me!' Harry gasped. For a few seconds they struggled, Harry pulling at his uncles sausage-like fingers with his left hand, his right maintaining a firm grip on his raised wang.

Now why you take dis pikchure of a goose?
Excellent Question ...
Today is my day of being poised , analytical and nonchalant.
Nonchalance is apparently in style now. Not that I'm a style queen or anything. Just. Thought it would be fun to do this for a day. Maybe if I like it , I should continue huh ?

R , R and R..
I so seems that a week of R and R is way too much for me to handle. Rest and Relaxation led to a great deal of Restlessness. Which then led to me going on a shopping spree and spending four thousand rupees in the last week. Mind you , I terribly needed all the stuff I bought. Including my second pair of slippers in the same week. Very nice.
So I went back to work with Phase 1 .. It’s a long story , to cut it short I realized I’m happier here …
So you know what else is cut extremely short , my hairs .. on my head ya ?
Also I went to an old friend’s wedding. It just so happened that captain 365 belonged to a particular religion that believed that goats were only put in this world to be eaten.
Also the reception was like in two separate rooms. One for the bride and one for the groom.
Awesome huh? But I didn’t even eat any mutton biryani. I hung around the men’s section in fact with my sister and Najla. Cuz that was the vegetarian section and my sister tends to believe that goats are only here to pet and go awwww…
I firmly believe when they grow out of the awwww stage , its ok to eat them.
And I call myself a Brahmin. Vehemently at that.
So happy Independence Day all. Belated. Feels good to be Indian and all that. Honest.
Everytime I see that ‘Yeh Jo Desh hai mera song’ on the tele from that Swades song, I go. awwwww. Misty eyes and all. No sarcasm here.. Honest.
Have I mentioned to anyone that my favorite Kill Bill character is Sofie Fatale? Gosh, Julie Dreyfus looks gorgeous in that movie. She does. I’m not going to say honest. It gets really cliché then. Honest. Ha.
To take into consideration Kris’ query about the query, in fact the question was both for men and women. I meant why are the men and women in the Apprentice always so good looking? And Bill, one of the most good looking men won the last season. It’s a scam I tell you.
Ok. Now I’m at work. And I’ll leave soon. Because it just so happens that I’m sleep deprived. Yes I am . Sleep deprived.

Not Rewards and renumeration.
I mean rest and relaxation.
For it is that time in my life .. hah ..
I've been under stress lately apparently.. Maybe so .. Had migraines and been throwing up .. Regurgitation seems to be my favourite activity offlate .. ( read post titled what's up? Ill tell you .. dated 24th may for more information on my partially digested food) .
So the doctor found nothing wrong with me but said it was prolly stress. Since I haven't taken any time off work ever since my dad passed away .
Me thinks it was my way of handling it . Apparently all this pent up emotional stress can cause these problems. yes yes . I'm the science student. I knew..
that's that.
One week of sleeping 10 hours a day , playing as much Unreal as I want, long walks, watching tele, watching Gladiator at least another 6 times ... Egads.. How can I forget blogging and all that useless time I spend online.
To quote my good friend Noel Gallagher :
I don't mind ,
as long as there's a bed beneath the stars that shine .
I'll be fine .. Give me a minute.
A man's got a limit.
I can't get a life if my heart's not in it..
Anyway . I want to take this opportunity to thank Uncle Chen .. His business interactions with a certain lady , which are happening on a daily basis , are the highlight of my day ..
This is me signing out.

Right , right , left , right.
Those were the directions I took from one Rohit from Wizcraft, boyfriend of former colleague at Phase 1. It was the way to Wizcraft , Bangalore from 12th main cross on 100 ft Road.
Thats where I work now Am Copy Writer with creative team. Also an event management company , rivals sometimes them two companies are.
Egads! I'm vicious.
Anyway , so thats that . I made an eighteen slide powerpoint presentation for employees of the old company.
They were very impressed. Im sure.
Anyway right , right, left , right are the directions I still follow when I go up 100 feet Road. I mean I have to conciously tell myself ..
right .. then being laterally challenged , I'll forget which hand my right hand is .. I'll look down at my hands , try to make writing action, look at which hand comes naturally , ah! then it must be right. So obviously the other one is left. Thank God I'm not ambi dextrious. Disaster that.
Better than little sister , who when sitting in an auto , will shout out right , right while pointing out to the left. Tut.
Been hooked to Dilbert for a bit now. Everyone should read. I insist. Really. Go make ourselves Useful. If thats possible.
Lady Beryl , I've only written this post as a result of your slogan .. If not , I would have sat on that lazy arse and waited somemore for blog bug to bite. So if there isnt a comment by you , it would hurt my heart.
