Ab Dilli Door Nahi (Delhi Ain't Too Far No More)

November 13, 2008. Have been eagerly waiting for this day since October 24 when I booked my round trip to India. Six week travel starts today, at 5:25pm (EST). Too excited! It has been more than 7 years since I was in India last. Looking forward to meet everyone! Have been getting up in the middle of night for the past two days and looking around to figure out if I'm there already :P

So far, my schedule looks pretty busy. Landing on 14th midnight.. will be 1-2a by the time I step out of the airport. Leaving for Shimla with grandparents the same morning. Return on 19th, with 20-21 in Delhi.. when I hopefully go to Pragati Maidan to attend a Trade Fair with school friends. Flying to Hydrabad sometime in the evening of 21st. Nothing planned after that, but hopefully I'll also visit Pune and Mumbai to visit family and friends on my way back to Delhi. After that, Dilli and UP!

So mostly, travel all over. Just have my fingers crossed that I don't get sick. Any pointers?

White Rings

I think it has been long due and it's finally time to stop holding a small white stick between my fingers and bringing it to my lips repeatedly. It's time to kiss good bye cigarettes. 

I tried my first sutta back in early 2006. Hated it. And continued to hate it until summer 2007 when out of boredom and having a lot of free time at hand, I started smoking away in the afternoons. I would specially walk home from work, smoke one, thoroughly wash my hands and brush my teeth, pop a gum in my mouth and walk back. During the fall semester I started going to the gym, and there came a point when just smelling them from a distance would drive me nuts, I had to hold my breath whenever I walked by someone inhaling and exhaling that poisonous smoke. Soon, lazy-ness came over me, I quit gym and by December the poisonous stick found its way back into my mouth. It wasn't until April 20, 2008 that I decided to kick back for good, as a 21st year resolution to myself (note: I turned 21 on April 22 '08). Good for one month, fighting back the urge, this time I didn't have gym to support my lungs, and within a month my mind said, "ah, what the heck..." and I gave in. 

Now, it's mid August 2008... and trust me when I tell you, no more white rings. At least not when there's no liquor in my body. That makes 85% of the week. Ah, only if there weren't no Fridays.

I think I'm in Love...

...with someone on television!

No other love, darlin' I'm flyin'.
No, no other love, darlin' I'm flyin'.
And I can go, I can go anywhere.
No other love can take me there.

Jennifer Beals came into my life as Bette Porter - one of the characters on the series "The L Word". I won't hesitate in saying, I'm obsessed with her. Her eyes, her lips, her teeth, her smile, her body, her figure, her hands, her fingers, her expressions, her [fictional] life on [The L Word], her scenes, her dialogues, her, her, her... fuck.

YouTube is where I spend a lot of my time these days, watching and re-watching and continuously watching her scenes in TLW. The way she embraces and pulls and kisses the other person, the way she looks at her lover in the middle of kisses or a love scene, the way she smiles when in love, leaves me weak in my knees. Thinking too much about her, which has become too difficult not to do for some reason, always results in a sigh and a fuck! out my mouth, space between my lips, and her in my eyes :)

FUCK!
