Eluding reality

Nothing is permanent. I know that. We know that. So, its almost like I don’t want to feel too much happiness or sorrow by the changing circumstances except that put the latter a few (say, a 1565x10000) notches higher. Now, I would truly like to believe that we should accept what is given to us but a small part of me says that I shouldn’t. I should always try to aim at better..much better. And that is what is written. Calvin’s destiny can’t be all that true. Its definitely puzzling though. Lets seeeeeee.

Internship over..college begun. It’s a cycle that will go on for another year and a half. It’s a pretty long course especially since all my friends are clearing out this year (except the ones doing LL.B..oh you must have got that..:)). And that too, a person told me, second graduation. I was almost on the verge of arguing but then i realised its true. Fine. I better be reciprocated. Like really.:)
E and I went and sat in Stephen’s cafeteria and it’s actually nice. We were there for 2 hours (yeah, my timetable is pretty lenient) and were discussing/bitching about law(yers)..interesting conversation that made and a cup (okay, two) of coffee..neattt!!:). Whinyyy mood.

On a totally different tangent, my hair is long again. :):)

And she tells me to give them all..it won’t be as hard as you make it to be. She gave Economics honors and BA honors exams together (and got a distinction in both which at that time was a massive deal). But someone has got to convince her that she was a genius and her daughter’s (wow, felt real good saying it) not. Like she thinks both of us are equally fair but anyone else who sees us would say, without even thinking twice, that my mom is at least two shades fairer. Her response to everyone being ‘bacchi hai. She goes to college. She’s tanned’. Really? I wish I was like her though..

Finally, the fun weekends have started. Work the whole week and shopping on the weekend. Not shopping shopping but going out and eating AND shopping..okay, I know I ve used this word 4 times already but I don’t shop as much as you think I do. It’s just the very idea that’s exciting. Then watching movies (saw ‘break ke baad’ and ‘band baaja baraat’ both of which were good except the ridiculous ending and case39 which was okishh :)). And sleeeeeeeping. You SEEEEEEEE what I am talking about. Happpppy weekends for a month of which only 10 days are left.

Ankur may get married in 2 to 2.5 years. It’s not tomorrow and we knew it already but the very idea becoming a reality is a little disturbing yet exceedingly pleasant. Woohoo!

Okay, I should get back to researching on the boring Gujarat solar power plant.

Muah.

Ps-I can’t decide who is cuter..Yashvi or Sana..they are at par right now. :)

In reference to pugsie's http://pugslie.blogspot.com/2011/01/universal-problem-me-thinks.html... because we cannot not expect. We are all selfish. We cannot be happy unless we have our demands met. If, for instance, there was a person that we gave everything to..out of our own happiness and that person happily kept taking it..u know somewhere inside..probably a tiny tiny tiny fraction of our mind/heart will Want that person to do something in reciprocation appreciating what we have done. I mean, however callous it may sound, we even expect God to listen to our prayers so how can we not have those expectations from men/women. Now, you’ve either got to be a super human or have a person in your life who fulfills your expectations(out of his own will but Also because you are doing the exact same thing) whatever name you give it..and say that we don’t expect anything from each other when you do and you have those met. There are no selfless good deeds as Joey states. A feeling of gratitude or a big gift(preferably:D)..anything..but we need something. :)

Hum neki kar dariya main daal hi nahi sakte..its humanly impossible. We can do good, show it to people and remember it for future references. But here's hoping that we'll improve:)

:)

Only 17+1 months to go..happppppppppppy new year all. Hope you have a very healthy and thus a happy 2011. Partaaaaaaaay! :)
Love to all!:)

living the dream!

My current lil sweet dream. Being delegated work, finishing it..giving it back to the associates..either getting a ‘good’ or very bluntly told to re-search the given topic..it’s so much fun. I love it. Its tiring and the topics given are often boring but the kick after doing it is what I am talking about. Niceeeee!:)

merrrrrry!!

I truly understand why it gives those Master chef contestants such immense pleasure to cook in front of and for Adriano Zumbo and Maggie Beer or other great Australian chefs...and why Amitabh Bacchan or Marlon Brando or such accomplished actors can easily overwhelm the others or why Sachin Tendulkar is treated like God by cricketers or fervent cricket followers..Or why a person working in a law firm, be it an associate or a partner can intimidate me...and imagine standing in front of Fali.S. Nariman or H.S.Kapadia, I will be enthralled and speechless. These are personalities that we all aspire to be, in our own respective fields and it’s as if you wana absorb each word they say or every action they do. Moreover, it’s not that you feel inferior in front of them but you know that they are superior to you and hence the respect. Can’t wait to get placed in a law firm and be pleasantly intimating to someone...it will be fun.:)

Its Christmas time...lala lalaa..It’s soo exciting. The festive spirit is here. Especially now that the exams are over and I have nothing to do except work and marriage stuff and classes...oh, I sound busy but it’s all good. Any thing seems better, so much better than exam time. Office feels like Santa Clause’s home..decorated and filled with mirth. Merry Christmas you all. Have a lovely day and a delightful year ahead...and party...and hope you get all the materialistic and also the good non-materialistic things you desire. Enjoyyyyyy.:):)

Yay!

Ps- All the men in my office are such eye candies..ahh!

family fun!

Family parties are so so so much fun. Had one at my place yesterday. Talking to my pretty bhabis and brothers and playing with their adooooooorable kids, dancing (Sheila out-did munni..but the oldies like munni more..everyone has their choices now..dont they?;)), barbecue, bon fire, listening to my cousin who’s getting married and her shopping expeditions. She asked her to-be-husband for a solitaire..the man wasn't so happy about that from what i heard. But c'mon, she has a right to demand the ring shes gonna wear on her finger the rest of her life. Go didi. :) And awesome food. My dad cooks the best mutton ever. Everybody enjoyed and sang songs. Typical hum aapke hai kaun scene except that some of my cousins were a little high;). My relatives are pretty awesome...very few opportunities to realize that. Good, fabulous is a more fitting word, time.
:)

boys are stupid, throw stones at them!:)

First things first..this line cracks me up.

Finally I ve started believing in this statement...or at least I know I believe in it. What’s with these atrocious half baked commitments like I will love you forever until I find someone else or unless I am caught cheating (here, really hoping that Emotional Atyachaar is not true and people are only acting for money) or till my mom says she doesn’t like the way you look. And I am not even talking of married men here. Don’t commit no? That’s wayyyyyyyy better and brazenly speaking, humane, than backing off later. Boys are meanies! I might be in a funny mood but i am serious.

One week seems like an entire month when exams get postponed.

My blog name is strawberryswati..that's kiddish for even a first year graduation student(that’s when I began writing) and posted by silly billy..i mean really? So embarrassed. In my defense I really liked strawberries and strawberry shake that time..i still somewhat do except that now I find it too sugary. And silly billy..lets just act that someone else made the account for me, shall we?:)

...and nothing.

Count exams for ruining the fun part of studying. It makes everything something you havta do rather than something you want to do and that sucks. Like I was studying consti (my apparent favorite subject) and it’s become, politely put, not nice. And like only 2 holidays for limitation and arbitration (which btw is the worse subject, no, it’s not hard but so sinfully boring and has too many sections to remember and its not even related but is the same paper..wth?) and that’s like giving me palpitations. 2 days, I mean that’s not even enough for revision forget learning..oh God, what will I do. Dormant life that I have, the only thing that is seemingly good is the prospect of sleeping after finishing the small portion of course that I have to do. blah!
