2007 is here...Doh!

So the second week of 2007 is already here...hmmmm *strokes his Chinki beard like pai mei did*

The boldest thought I have had so far: 2007 is going to be a great year! *lights up a cigarette and says "bull$#1t"*

And for those of you who forwarded the forwarded sms I forwarded you on New Year's Eve, you are as unoriginal as me.

I wished you a happy new year when 2006 started and I will wish a happy new year when 2007 ends. BTW, If you thought that the SMS I sent you didn't have any thoughts behind it, you are very wrong! :)

BTW, here's 2007 as I see it:-

• Baghdad will continue to be on the news (was that supposed to be "in "?)...a bomb blast here, a bomb blast there....(I'm political, but too lazy to do anything about it)
• Bombay will be flooded again (mawhahahaha)
• We will have some "manufactured artist(s)/band(s)" that your teenage sis and my sis will go crazy for
• Bush will deploy something something bomb or some 2000000000000000000000 troops in some country
• Bollywood actors... e.g. John Abraham will appear in a "special" Chi"rs"tmas Program" where your 5 year old kid might ask him who his first crush was. As an actor, he'll "blush" and talk about how \a girl rejected him in college...and of course, we'll be watching this crap with our family
• Amar Singh and Shahrukh khan (Amita bacahn?) will "play" (khelenge... as in celebrate) Holi together
• Jimmy will have his own share of goof-ups - on the job and off the job
• Jimmy will cross his 30's
• One of my friend is surely going to bite the dust...(I mean, get married)

Homer! where TF are you? I need inputs for this blog! (Oh, the simpsons movie will be released this year...phew! some relief at least...)

My first week of 2007:-

• My heat convector is "still" working
• I am still calling friends/relatives after 11 PM, to ask them how THEY are doing and how i AM doing (alcohol makes you do "wonders"!)

• I've realized that my new flat/room sucks.
• I'm listening Hindi songs again (someone takes the credit for this one)
• I hum "Kal ho Na ho" when I look at her picture
• I've realized that drinking isn't what it used to be - "its not your cup of tea!" that's what my soul tells me
• "This is not what MSTP says", some lady in my office.

2007, here I am, I'm the man on the scene! *pulls down his pants and shows his ..."

Happy New Year! YAY!!

If you thought I was depressed when I wrote this blog, you empathise well, me thinks

Black is a song that pretty much sums up my state of mind these days. Copying and pasting the lyrics as is from the Net. If only singers could write and emote songs as well as Eddie Vedder does. I love the part where he says, "We belong together" and the last stanza is what hits me the most.
PS from a fan: "Eddie had written the song for his girlfriend :)"

Sheets of empty canvas, untouched sheets of clay
Were laid spread out before me as her body once did.
All five horizons revolved around her soul
As the earth to the sun
Now the air I tasted and breathed has taken a turn


Ooh, I know she gave me all that she wore
And now my bitter hands chafe beneath the clouds
Of what was everything.
Oh, the pictures have all been washed in black, tattooed everything...

I take a walk outside
I'm surrounded by some kids at play
I can feel their laughter, so why do I sear?
Oh, and twisted thoughts that spin round my head
I'm spinning, oh, I'm spinning
How quick the sun can drop away

And now my bitter hands cradle broken glass
Of what was everything?
All the pictures have all been washed in black, tattooed everything...

All the love gone bad turned my world to black
Tattooed all I see, all that I am, all I'll be... yeah...
Uh huh... uh huh... ooh...

I know someday you'll have a beautiful life,
I know you'll be a sun in somebody else's sky, but why
Why, why can't it be, why can't it be mine
