Don't know why i feel very sleepy these days even after having good 7 hours sleep. So many things are cluttering my mind and this makes my head start aching. oh no, it is aching while writing also.

its like one is standing in the middle of two rivers which are flowing with extremely powerful currents from both sides.

BTW, i just celebrated my birthday on 25th august. we celebrated it with a small party at office and at home. both went well (atleast for me).

Omkara Re Ee Ee Ee Ee Ee, Omkaraaaaa.

what a lovely song it is. don't know why but from the moment i heard its tune for the first time, i started loving it. Only later i came to know that the complete film is based upon a story in Western U.P. and yeah, that's my land. It is fun to hear the language spoken there. we use to laugh so much about how noun becomes verb or how adjective becomes noun. Very funny.

Some examples of Boli there ( i can imitate their tone as well, in person)

Event 1:

An old man trying to get down from the bus but driver was not stopping it but let it move slowly.

Old man: Re bhaiyya! rok le.
Driver: No answer
Old man: Are rok na raha ke.
Driver: Rukee to hui hai, tu utar naa.
Old man: Ise thaam le jabbi utroonga.
Driver: Yoh to thami huee aur kya tere uterne ke liye, pahiye taar ke alag dhar doo.


Event 2:

A revenue inspector (patwari, as they call) was stopped by traffic policeman for not having PUC (pollution under control) certificate.

Traffic Policeman: Sir, PUC dikhaaeye.
Patwari: Hai nahi.
Traffic Policeman: Sir, toh karwana padega.
Patwari: Kaun Karega.
Traffic Policeman: Sir, yeh jo londa khada, yehi kar dega.
Patwari: Yo karega mera PUC (angrily)

By now, Inspector comes on the screen, he knows the revenue inspector so he asks the policeman

Inspector:
Re patwaari ka PUC mat kare.

Event 3:

An old man was paying Vikram (an auto) fare through a 10 rupee note.

Driver: Kahan se betha, chacha.
Old man: Begum pul se (a famous place in meerut like ITO in delhi).
Driver: Chacha, khulle paise de.
Old man: Khulle naa mere dhore.
Driver: bata chacha, too begum pul se aaya aur khulle paise naa tere paas.
Old man: (now bristling) begum pul me tera phoopa baat ra dikhe chillar.

(phoopa means husband of one's father's sister)

Just while logging in to write this post, i saw the creation date of this blog. 02-Aug-2006. it means that i just missed its anniversary. No problem, otherwise also, i was not going to write some kind of anniversary special post.

Still, if feels great that my blog writing has continued for atleast One year. One year, 55 posts. On an average 1 post per 7 days. Once in a week. My record is fine, yaar.

I just had a call from susheel, my two books are on their way. One is Five point someone and another is One night at call center. both by Chetan Bhagat. Both have been pending in my reading wish-list for a long time, esp. five point someone.

I had a fight with one of closest friend. Thanks God, it ended soon. One small event should never come in between the relations and i hope it never recurs.

CV is thinking about some web based business. And not to tell that one another person Dn came to me with almost the same proposal. I wanted to tell about this to CV but he called me up only at 12:30 in night and i was feeling so sleeeeaauuuuuooooeeepy at that time. What a coincidence.

At the time of going bed, i feel guilty on most of the days. i really can't concentrate on my studies. that's too bad. i'll do something in this regard soon.

I started library at our colony. It was my long dream to start something like this. I hope this to be a nice beginning to achieve that. Right now, we are just 8 members with just 50 rs subscription but i hope to expand it to a large scale.


P.S. got another call from susheel, may be i won't get the books even today also. pray, pray , pray.......
