B.o.o.k.s

When it comes to reading books I will be the one whom you don't want..:). I never bothered about reading anything apart from the acad ones which I couldn't spare because I need to sit for a 3 hour meditation class making my pen do the whole work..

I tried to breach this by trying The Da Vinci Code..This was officially my first book..I should say it was a pathetic start for a guy like me..Never I was involved in the story and always wondered why in the world should I waste my time by being immobile, holding a book..I used to enjoy reading Tin tin, Archies during my childhood..but as the time progressed even those turned mundane.

Now after two years, my mission saw some light.I finally succeeded in reading a whole book and I should say this was no easy task for a guy like me and I felt I was on the top of the world as if I was the only one out there to accomplish this (rare) feat..I am not fond of reading but some where down the heart I always felt I should add some books to my kitty( might be because of my pathetic verbal CAT score)..and that lead to 3 books in 10 days..not bad huh..?:)..This time I really enjoyed ..Hoping to add as many books as I can..After all, books are the Flying Saucer's helping us to travel without moving an inch...

Pet Name..

I was thinking about something and suddenly this flashed in my mind. Whats my pet name? What does a pet name mean? Does it mean truncating your name or totally a new name which has no head and tail resemblance to your good name? In that case do I have a pet name? Several questions flashed in my mind and I was trying to recollect all the pet names I had before. And then one more question arose? Are all the names of the person apart from the given name called pet names?

Pet name is a reminder that life is not always so serious, so formal and complicated.And that, one is not the same to all people. People who can dare( read showing affection) to call a person by their PN's(pet names) are few and that not everyone can have the right to speech in this regard. Some PN's doesn't even have a proper meaning and aspirations but yet the mere utterance of the word makes the caller soo special and is given extra access to their lives.

But going by a PN in public feels so terribly strange and embarrassing ( this doesn't apply to all I guess.depends on the name). For PN's are meant to be confined within the folks. They cannot appear on the Birth certis, Degree records and in the employment records...

I am always wanting to have a nice PN for myself. I was given many but none of them really appealed me. But ultimately I have to accede on a name to form a taxonomy of the people around me. That's life...compromising on all things..and this led to the cropping of my name...the name, I am known to all my folks.My favourite PN goes by the name of this blog...

Birthday...

Yeah, its my birthday and starting a blog today is a perfect gift to me from myself..The day started with flabbergasts from my sis and peachy gifts from the same..Didn't have a proper sleep then, expecting a call from X who later buzzed me but talked for just 4.48min...The whole day my mobile kept beeping which was pretty aberrant..unusual because on a given day on an average my mobile wakes up from its sleep for at most 2 calls or max 4 calls with the extra 2 calls contributed by the wrong calls. My mobile would have been startled for its activeness today..:)

The day was spent by going out for a lunch with my parents and sis and then going to Orchard for shopping....After a very long time we took out our time for lunch and we had a ball..

This Bday is different if I think of my friends...The so called noname13.c friends..The same friends who made my 21st Bday, The Most Memorable Bday..The 21st Bday, where I had a packed schedule right from 8am to 12pm with the first destination being @ EatStreet with Y(Sorry guys the names are withheld) at 8am and the last one being Prav's houz at 12pm..And this time my dear friends they didn't even bother to call and wish me...Reason:They forgot my Bday( to be precise they don't remember)..Thanks for the wishes Guys..

I don't crib about this year's bday...After all, I was there with my parents and sis after many years and I am very much happy for that..The day was very much perfect..And its my fault to expect something from someone...And even the dearest of them couldn't be different from them...

Anyways I am happy with the way my day turned out ....Happy Birthday to me...:)

Ciao...
