Confessions online!

Screwed up something?

Now you can confess here online!

Dont forget to read some interesting confessions there.

Sample this

"I've had eating disorders since I was 13. I always felt that anorexia took everything away from me. Before I was a good student and athlete. I was healthy and pretty. By sophomore year my hair was falling out, my period stopped (and would not start again for years), I could not hold my bladder, I coudln't sleep, I couldn't play soccer. I knew my body was dying at age 15.I'm 23 now. I survived that epidsode, but I've never been the same. I've been bulimic ever since. In some ways it's worse now, not physically. But emotionally. I feel so disgusting, so alone. I isolate myself completely (to the point where i've moved a hemisphere away!). I've never dated since anorexia. I feel too fat. Too ugly. Unworthy of anybody. Undeserving of love."

Cheers!

PS: Read a few confessions today (23rd June)...Disturbing...

What to write?

Its really difficult to blog when you are abroad. More so when you are in UK. I mean in India, you have such vast amount of topics to write about. Right from hairy ears of Lalu to Mayawati's mimics, from Delhi's heat to Mumbai's Marine Drive and from Sachin's century to Kalam's haircut or something like this!. And if you realise that even this is not enough,just watch one interview of Rakhi Sawant or start watching Rajat Sharm's Channel 7. I bet,you will have plenty to write. Now compare this with the eternal dull face of Tony Blair or the forever injured Michael Vaughan. What to write about them?

Even the newspapers here don't have anything to write! Pick a 30 page tabloid. On 3 pages, you will have the photos of all sorts of soccer players. On 5 other pages,there will be half naked photos of the wives and girl friends of these soccer players. On page-3,there will be a nude model (the extravagant version of Mid-Day mate) followed up by many such beauties in the least of clothes in the following pages. Now guess what will be on page-1? There will be a sobbing women whose dog went missing last night and another will be a snap of a babe who is grim because she was kissed by 'only' three men during the last night out. The only time during the last 8 months of my stay in UK when these papers had something to write was when Jade Goody happened. Thanks to Shilpa!

Anyways,
I am busy packing my bags for my 15 day visit to India in June. So currently engrossed in deciding the type of chocolates to buy. I hope, once i am back, i will have plenty of stories and experiences to share. I am sure i will have a few words for Indian summer. A change from 10 to 45 degrees wont be pleasant!!

A Union Jack Doormat!

So this is what you can get in United Kingdom!

A Union Jack Doormat.

Poor Mandira.

Your choice

The last time when I updated this space was in March. It’s been a month and a half and lots of things happened during this duration. Now we know that the alternate professions of Member of Parliament includes smuggling women and kids to other countries (courtesy Mr. Babubhai Katara), we know that Mr Narayan Murthy is a terrorist (courtesy his Anthem statement), we know that Sachin Tendulkar is anti nationalist too (courtesy his cake cutting ceremony in WI) and we know that even Mandira Bedi is not a patriot either!! (This time her saree (and not the blouse) with the flags of all participant nations in WC).

Now we know that the next big thing in cricket are Ireland and Bangladesh. We know that the reasons behind Gilchrist brilliant innings of 149 in WC final were not his capabilities and potential but the squash balls inside his gloves and most importantly we know that we cannot get AIDS if we kiss a girl on stage who is not remotely HIV +ve (courtesy Mr Gere and Shilpa Shetty).

Probably the only thing we still don’t know is “Who killed Bob Woolmer?” Don’t worry; Jamaican police, Pakistani Police, Scotland Yard and London police, Mumbai Police, chinchpokli Police are investigating the issue.

And during all these days, I was badly missing updates on Rakhi Sawant. Finally I stumbled on a few video clips on Youtube where she appeared on Kofee with Karan. Poor chap was so nervous during the whole show! It was a welcome respite from all those sauve gentlemen and sophisticated ladies. The lady was shooting from the lip, from the hip and from whatever she was able to shoot! Her take on Mika was the best.

Not much updates from my side as the only thing that I am waiting for now is a 15 day visit to India in June. It’s been 8 months here now and its high time to recharge the batteries.

Anyways, I have got a new room mate here in UK. He is as close to Paresh Rawal in ‘Judai’ as you can get in real life. Remember his question marked forehead? Same is the case with this guy. Be it anything, from weather to cricket, from mayawati to balram jakhad , from cameras to laptops, for everything he has his questionnaire ready and suddenly you find yourself helpless in that barrage of questions.

On top of this, he doesn’t even breathe without looking for the auspicious occasion. Thanks to him, we have got that panchang wala calendar in our flat now. Although I already have 57 hilarious incidents in the last 15 days involving him,here is one which takes the cake.

He ordered a laptop from Amazon and got it on Thursday. Panchang was checked and it was declared that Sunday is the auspicious day to start the laptop. Next thing, he was found playing with his laptop just after 2 hours of that statement. I asked him whether any planet changed its position so drastically that Thursday has become auspicious now in a matter of 2 hours?

His reply was legendry…

“No, I am not logged in as ‘administrator’,I have logged in as a ‘guest user’. So,this login doesn’t count”

Talk about manipulations!!!

Cheers…
