Trip-py trip


I came back yesterday from Mumbai..
I know it sounds really silly but i think i kinda started falling in love with Mumbai...

The next day i reached Mumbai my dad(who was extremely concerned that i might get lost) told one of his favourite boys(from the office!) to take me to Marine drive because he had hell of a lot of work and a meeting that day...
Anyway I reluctantly agreed though i knew i could go there alone and I was too old to get lost...
But I dint want to give daddy that extra tension because i knew he had an important meeting...
So Kanta(My sister and I call him that !!) came to pick me up and we went to Marine drive...
*Info : Kanta is a character you'd rather not know about otherwise this post will turn into one boring irksome post..Lets just say he's the adult Dexter but when he opens his mouth all your preconceived notions about his intelligence vanish...!!*


The weather was quite sunny that afternoon and though it was a very rare possibility that it might rain he carried two umbrella's which i found quite funny..!
After locking the door of the apartment just as my dad had shown me i double checked the things i was supposed to take..
1)My purse : check!
2)Keys :check!
3)Hanky :check
"What exactly are you doing" Kanta exclaimed..And i realized that i wasn't mentally repeating these things but i was actually saying this quite dramatically and loudly!!
"Oh nothing..nothing..just checking if i forgot to carry something or not.." I said quite embarrassed with my actions..
He dint say anything but i realized that he might be thinking what a silly girl i am..
"But who cares anyway.." I thought to myself..

As we walked to the main road to get a cab, I fought back my lazy thought about the comforts of staying at home..
And amidst fighting back my lazy thoughts and getting into the cab i answered my dad's phone call who enquired for the millionth time now whether i was doing good and I assured him that everything is fine...

While we were in the cab we had a usual conversation in between long silences...

When we finally reached Marine drive and walked to the breezy Nariman point it started drizzling...
For sometime i thought that I was alone there and walked towards the edge...
And as the waves lashed against the boulders i thought about how these few months have changed the course of my life...
"Here take this umbrella and open it quickly otherwise you'll catch a cold" he said and held it towards me...
And on the breezy rainy day as i was trying to open my umbrella it almost flew off and i was about to fall off on the boulders down below but somehow i dint..(thank god!!)
"It will be a hilarious scene for the people around us to see that a girl flew off while opening the umbrella.." I said...
"Yaa i actually thought you're going to fly off...Leave it don't open it.." he said laughing...
I managed to fold the umbrella and saw that he was having a hard time folding his ugly big black umbrella because it kept flying off so i helped him fold his umbrella and gave them both to him..
I stayed an hour or two there lost in the awe of that place...
The sky was filled with a tinge of orange sunlight which had just set mixed with a soothing darkness...
It was a scene which could infuse romance even in a heart of stone..!
And i stood on the end of the promenade wondering how very amazing this day would have been with someone else for company..!!
Anyway I saw the couples nearby in a total mood for PDA and I wondered what a right moment for PDA it was..!

Monday blues..!

Today while coming out of my Biology tuition I slipped but then I somehow regained my balance.!! Yes I slipped again..!!A year back on my 16th birthday I slipped and fractured my ankle!!Actually it's my fault only there are two staircases in my biology tuition both leading to the exit, one is the normal kinda stairs which we generally have and the other one is a spiral staircase which opens outwards (yes you can even see the sky from it's broken corners!) but it doesnot even have a railing in some places and it's extremely narrow(exactly the size of my foot!!yes I did measure it!!) and steep!! So as you may have guessed by now I regularly use the spiral staircase!!Girls in my tuition can't even think of using that staircase and I don't know why even guys don't use it!!(maybe they are scared!!).. I really don't understand why I love those 'danger stairs' (yes my friends call it that) so much but I actually do..I remember once when I was about four or

Just As long as we are together

This is a poem i had written when i was in the 6th standard and our group nearly broke.....I admit This poem has lots of flaws and abstractions but for me this poem really means a lot..... I remember the time we were standing with our faces to the sun.. Picturing our times to come Many a clouds have passed by since we stood under the same sky Talking in the summer sights.. Howling at the city lights I still remember the time that passed.. Pulling pranks just for fun Summer vacations were such a blast the kind of memories that will always last.. Growing up in future seemed such a thing We thought we knew what it would bring.. The stars seemed so clear from our domain.. I sure could handle some of those good times again.. Even if our dreams still seem far away.. Our friendship is always here to stay.. Until we are all gone.. The roads between us will never be too long...... I have been putting this off for quite sometime now, thinking I’d write this post “later” but I figured there is no

Aaj fir ek cigarette...

Here's a poem written by my friend who is trying to quit smoking and below it is my reply poem to him ... Aj fir ek cigarette jala raha hun,, uski nazar me ye ek gunaah hai, mai to uske waade bhula raha hu,, Aj fir ek cigarette jala raha hu.. samajhna mat isko meri aadat,main to bus dhuaan ura raha hu, ye uski yaado ka silsila hai, mai uski yaaden jala raha hu.. mai peekar itna behek chuka hu ki gham ke kisse suna raha hu.. agar tumhein bhi ghm hai to aao,main pee raha hu aur pila raha hu... ek cigarette ki shama k bahane main apne aap ko jala raha hu.. Aaj fir ek cigarette jala raha hu.....                                                                                     ~ Akash  Gam ko aasuyo se na piya toh kya piya.. gam ko zindagi mei na badal diya toh kya jiya..  Gam ko dhuye mei urane ki addat nahi humko, hum toh isi dard k nashe,ki addat mei jiye huye hai..!
