didn't want to go but cudn't say no to teh birthday gal.kahan rtc x roads kahan jhills.... but it was nice to b bac at crystal after a loooooong time (remember my 10th birthday party !!....ashwin anna in formals!! gosh half hyd was stunned n thiose pics were sold out!!) but this tim eit was not the same....in these some 10 yrs RTC x roads has changed like anything ...used to spend all my summer hols in amammaz apartment there par abhi it look sliek a totally new place....mom told me to get into 45 n come to ameerpet n frm there in an auto, instead of teh via koti route rohini sggested, rohini dropped me @ the bus stop n i was there waiting in a completely strange place for abt 20 mins.........no 45..........my heart beat started raising......it was abt 8-45pm.first time i was all alone in a bus stop at tht hour...probably it was tehfear of loosing my gold medal frm my purse (yea the same purse frm where i lost my dearmost cell)....thn finally thot ok whichever bus comes next i am going to board it n i get a 1 to stn ok will atleast get a 47 or 10H..... but i was not sure i fu get any bus at abt 9-30pm...awww......but i didn't want to get into an auto!! thn finally after an anxious 1/2 hr i get this 2 10z n a 47 Y to filmnagar....i ran like a hell from th 10H stop to the 47.....god knows why i got so scared .....i started breathing so heavily.but was relieved called up mom who was twice as anxious n told dad to pick me up frm teh bus stp.....i thot my breathing will get normal whn i get bac home...it didn't. stayed out in the cool breeze for long hoping it will get normal....it didn't.....finally thot sleeping wud help......managed 2 hrs sleep thn cudn't sleep anymore........walked all around the house tried drinking water no use.... mom woke up n was scared.......thot of taking me to doc.i didn't feel the need of a doc ...thn amma did some home remedy..... it helped a bit but thn suddenly i got so scared ..donno why but i got really scared thot i wud die tht very moment god knows why i felt tht way but i did....thn thot me n my imagination.....kani tht very moment in momz arms i was life oh god my folks can't live without me..n will i die without getting an admit frm UC?? strange me!!
thank god it was just just for a few seconds, else i wud hav died of fear.....donno whtz gone wrong with me after coming to hyd..my immune system has crashed.... i am so easily infected.....1/2 hr in pollution n am dead...with throat pain suffocation n wht not....
wish i die without suffering n i wish teh same for all my dear ones...
Life is full of little moments... some you remember, some you forget, some you remember to forget and some you forget to remember. This is an attempt to chronicle many such little moments from my selective memory..

When Princi (incidentally Dean of faculty of engg) called up my name my heart started beating so fast....am i good enuf fo rthis medal???...the same question poped up.....but thn the cameras tookover.

By myself
What do I do to ignore wats behind me
Do I follow my faith to escape blindly.
Do I hide my mind I away from these bad dreams
And give into sad thoughts that are maddening.
Do I let it go and try to stand it,
Or do I try to catch them red handed.
Do I trust some and give into phoniness,
Or do i, trust none and live life in lonliness.
Sunlight burns the skin of sleepy men,
I make the right turns but I’m lost w/in
I put on my daily full side but then
I just end up gettin hurt again
By myself [myself]
I ask why, but in my mind
I find I can’t rely on myself
Chorus:
I can’t hold on
To what I want when I’m stretched so thin
It’s all too much to take in
I can’t hold on
To anything watching everything spin
With thoughts of failure sinking in
If I turn my back I’m defenseless
And to go blindly seems senseless
If I hide my pride and let it all go on
Then they’ll take from me ’til everything is gone
If I let them go I’ll be outdone
But if I try to catch them I’ll be outrun
If I’m killed by the questions like a cancer
Then I’ll be buried in the silence of the answer
[by myself]
How do you think I’ve lost so much
I’m so afraid I’m out of touch
How do you expect I will know what to do
When all I know is what you tell me to
Don’t you know
I can’t tell you how to make it go
No matter what I do, how hard I try
I can’t seem to convince myself why
I’m stuck on the outside
Do I follow my faith to escape blindly.
Do I hide my mind I away from these bad dreams
And give into sad thoughts that are maddening.
Do I let it go and try to stand it,
Or do I try to catch them red handed.
Do I trust some and give into phoniness,
Or do i, trust none and live life in lonliness.

Ate jate....
Kal sara dil teen bar maine apni ram kahani likhi par har baar power cut aur bas...sayad mujhe itne jaldi apni autobiography nahin likhne chayiye....zindagi bahut lambi hain abhi aur bahut mod hain,bahut kaam hai, bahut time hai...apne 55th birthday pe start karoon to sayad theek rahega.........bhagvan na kare is beech mujhe amnesia aa jaye!!!
Mohabbat ki yeh intihaan ho gayi ki masti main tumko khuda keh gaya......bahut jaldi maan leti hoon main sabko, thts perhaps my weakest and strongest point. mother theresa kehti thi na" if u spend all your time scrutinising people u won't hav time to love them".....but i donno how practical this is but thts the way i am!! aur joey macintyre kehte hain" don't u ever wish tht u were some1 else coz u were ment to b wht u r now exactly...........believe in yourself you can touch the sky...!!" yeh sab to gane main achi lagti hain magar seriously sayad i wudn't like myself as much if i was not like this.......impulsive n bindas!!
