Grammatical monstrosities!

"Let we are friends from now?". This is the 'message' that some dude called 'Karthic' (what's with the c? Numerology?!!) decided would be the clincher when he sent me a friend request on Orkut. I wish with all my heart that someone gifts him a book called Wren and Martin real, real soon...That might just help, I'm not putting my money on it though!
Is it just me or are we turning into an entire mental asylum?!! Maybe there is really a guy called Wonko the sane too, someplace :D
Last I checked, things weren't so bad! Apparently I checked too long ago :D

Fleeting....

Sun in the earth.. sunflower
Bird in the air ...rain
Eye within eye... daybreak

bavra mann dekhne chala ek sapna ..

Streets we have never walked on
Windows we have never opened
Hands we have never held
Dreams we shall never ..never see again

bavra mann dekhne chala ek sapna ..
bavrese mann ki dekho bavri hain baatein
bavrisi dhadkane hain bavri hain saanse

Sun in the earth.. sunflower
Bird in the air ...rain
Eye within eye... daybreak

Lives we have never lived
Hopes ..we have never realized
Fires we have never lit
Loves we shall never .. never make again....

I hear those strange whispers again....
Sigh!
Am I being an extremely oversensitive fool or is it acceptable to start getting the feeling that I'm going to miss this place intensely? :D I'm always going to reminisce fondly about this place, about all the people I've met (the few good ones, rather ;) ) and I'll be damned if I'm a sucker for that!!! :D

When in doubt, empty the magazine!

I have decided I need to genuinely learn the art of silence. So from now on, each time I feel the urge to say anything, I shall sing a line of some really bad song in my head (it's better than the oh-so-cliched i'll count to 10). I'm hoping the songs I'll pick'll be so terrible that all thoughts of whatever I was to say would vanish.
(Kuch ne kahan wo chaand hai kuch ne kaha chehra tera). I'm sorry....what?

The aforesaid song is some weird tune that we used to keep singing in school to piss each other off. It was from some really vague movie with two really really ugly people as the leads, and we always wondered just why. Couldn't they find better looking people? It wasn't like these....uhhh....creatures... were acting...! Don't remember the entire song, but I remember the next line went "Hum bhi wahan maujood the...humne bhi sab dekha suna...(mellifluous, sad, longing kinda music :D) Hum chup rahe....kuch na kaha....manjoor tha...parda tera...." Imagine...! And this girl was so ugly we figured the guy was saying he was he was only too happy that she wasn't lifting the fricking veil...(even though the veil looked like it'd been made in the 1920s :D)
I'm gonna look this song up on Google and pray the video turns up on YouTube, that mother of all viewing inventions :D
