Splitting the DNA (Day 10 of Truth)
The following Post is for accomplishing Creative Challenge called 30 Days of Truth, given by Kellie Elmore. It is a unique exercise in self exploration and learning to be honest with yourself… andthatultimately leads to happiness.
*****************************************************************************************
Social Network. I won’t say that it is everything because even I do have a personal life apart from multiple digital screens. 😛 But it meant a lot for me once, when I was feeling alone. And so, it does sometimes now. Okay !! I’m getting bit Facebook-alcoholic, but it is a Fact.
Well the bottom line is, I love and enjoy interacting with people online. These are the guys, whom I’ve never met personally, but I would probably be interested to have a chit-chat with them for a long time. I preferably add or send friend request to those, who have similar interests like I do as this is the way you possibly could interact with strangers in the Internet. The reason for being sometimes extrovert in such place is simple. Let’s talks about from this perspective. We all are busy and stressed with our lives. Sometimes even we do really need friends (including the net buddies) to whom we could share our thoughts and we both understand each other feelings. Apart from my over 700 friends in Facebook and 300 Friends in Orkut, I still do have some good long time net buddies to whom I interact most of the times (even daily sometimes). That’s the only reason which can’t make me to resist myself coming online. Of course, I do have a self control and balance which often makes to avoid such things during important tasks.
Some Smartass people around me always think that I am totally free (in Hindi what we call, VELLA) every time and don’t have a life apart from Social-Networking. Well, it’s their lame perception. If they don’t know about time management and productive use of such sites, then it’s not my fault to explain these cunts again and again. Honestly, I really don’t give a fuck about them.
Anyways, moving back to the topic. It was somewhere 3 years ago (to be exact, it was about November 2008). I met this girl online in Orkut. Her net name was ‘Fallen Devil’ (not interested to mention that bitch’s real name 😛 and you will get the reason too .. Don’t worry). She was a friend of my long time net friend ‘Akshay’from Mumbai, India (I named him because he’s still a good friend of mine :)). I saw her profile and found it really interesting. There were many similarities between us like – Favorite Rock Bands, Favorite Music, Favorite shows, Favorite Cartoons etc. Like I’ve said above about my way of social interacting – adding mostly my kinda guys. So therefore, I sent her a friend request and she accepted within hours. After acceptance, she personally posted on my scrapbook asking about myself. I gave her a reply ASAP and asked her the same.
And this is how our chatting started. 🙂
Within few more fast questions and answers, I further got to know about her more and so do she got to know more about me. Even some interesting things I got to know about her that she stays in NOIDA (kinda neighbor city from my city, Delhi), loves LINKIN PARK and a great fan of Mike Shinoda (just like me .. but not had a crush on him :P) and the strange part : She was just 14 (a typical school kid). Well, That was weird for me at the first moment. But yeah it got over with it, as I realized that kids these days are more advanced and even more interested to interact in social networking, than us who just came to know that such things even exist.
Well usually had conversation (I mean seriously, a hell lot of chit-chat) on many topics. Of course, everything is not perfect at all. Even we still had some dissimilarities like – I like watching Indian Comedy and Daily Soap on Television, while Teen Drama Shows are her most favorites. But still there was some respect between us despite a lil bit of. Like I used to say her, there was some similarity in our DNAs, there was some kinda understanding between us.
We used to chat for hours, share some music links and write some testimonials to each other. Maybe we were more than friends .. not BF/GF relationship shit .. siblings I would say. And sooner, we exchanged our contact number as we were eager to talk to each other. I remember the moment she rang me up for the first time right after I gave my contact number, I got bit terrified like – what to say, how to talk and all. It was damn anxious for me and i think it was that so for her also. Now, our chat went online as well as offline. She used to call me mostly. So Lucky me !! 😛
But this ain’t a happy ending. Soon, the tables turned and it was really painful. There was something about her, which I was ignoring first but then I got sick from that shit later. Apart from being an extrovert teenage, she is a typical Brat. The problem of her was that she brags so much about herself and her vanities. Sometimes she even faked about herself a lot of times. I remember her Orkut profile where she proclaimed that she’s the biggest Linkin Park fan and even she used to ask me many times, which was really annoying. Highly obsessed with her likes but can’t avoid the criticizers. I used to ignore such bullshits from her as whatever she does holding up with that attitude, was kinda immature and would need time to grow up and learn on her own.
However as a friend, I still advised her whenever she blogs such juvenile thoughts. But nothing went through her head and even she backfired me calling me I’m talking some kinda old guy. This really proved that she even doesn’t respect to her elder’s advise. Even she apologized for her attitude in front of me. But it was useless as she never learned from her mistakes and doing such shits again and again.
It was still OK as I later, tried to avoid asking about her lifestyle and thoughts. If she pretends to be matured, then she must be out her own ass. From then onward, I hardly picked up her call and replied to her messages, to make her realize about her own actions that hurt me once. I thought it was working as it seemed to me for while. But sooner, I was proved wrong by her.
One day, I found that she had a fight with my sister on Orkut. Both were ranting each other with hate speech. I really got angry as she started the battle for no reason. She was jealous with my sister. Don’t know why she was? But her words told the whole story. It was over the limit and I was forced to jump into this verbal battle. Not for taking anyone’s side, but to stop his hullabaloo of no reason. But she never grown up from her own mistakes and her own actions has almost ended our 10 month long net friendship, in the end of August 2009. I’d told about this incident to our mutual friends, asking their opinions. They somehow favored me, but still advised me to maintain the friendship and spare her immature actions. But I didn’t change my decision. If the bitch can’t give us respect, then it’s better she get her ass out of my way.
It had passed over two years and none of us interacted to each other. But one day, a friend request notification in my Facebook Wall made me stunned that moment. It was she who came back out of nowhere. I was thinking about to block her from my account. But later I thought to accept her request as I’ve already moved one from that incident and buried the hatchet, with a hope that she also grew up from her past juvenile habits. There might be still some matching DNA left in ourselves, which might make us to talk back again. But still just in case Deja-Vu happens, I’d make sure to interacted with her not that much openly which I used to do. However now, she’s 17, a young photography aspirant. Maybe I could expect some maturity from her.
So as soon I accepted her request, she sent me a message, “It’s really been a long time huh ??”. And in a taunting manner, I replied, “Yeah !! As if it is some kinda reunion”.
And this is how, out chat became so rough and so cold.
Even after that first (a little rough though) conversation, we’ve hardly interacted online as we both were busy in our lives. There were some limited topics like – current music choice, Grammy awards, Hollywood movies etc. which made us to talk if we are luckily online and interested to talk. However, within limited chat I thought one that we still have those similarities and still we appreciate that. But this time, I don’t want to know more and talk to her offline. I kept my privacy and she kept hers. It seemed that everything was going OK!
But seriously, such brats like her never get a life. They’ll keep on bragging about her overpriced things, which seriously I felt annoying though I don’t a damn. They all are obsessed with their materialistic lifestyle and won’t never be able to understand other’s way of living. And the day came again, when she interfered in our matters.
Again she fought in my elder sister’s blog. In the lame name of criticism, she posted a hate speech comment in response to my sister’s blog post. She was in a rage as her ranted words told everything about her jealously. As a payback, my sister replied her hate mail. If she can raise a weapon and declare a war, then my sister has a right to drop a nuke on her ass to stop this bullshit. Even I sent her message in Facebook asking for an explanation of her actions. But seriously, she became a cunt. She blamed my sister for not taking her comments in a sporting way. Again her ranting words tells the same ole story that she can’t stand with other even if she’s dealing with the sister of her true friend. But like I’d said in the beginning, the bitch never grown up from her mistakes. What else can I say ? The End is here, It’s Crystal Clear.
Reinventing memories of my past, I remember when everything was really good between us. We used to have fun when we were good friends. Something memorable moments probably we both have shared with each other. But I soon realized that virtual relationships hardly remains for real. It doesn’t stays long. And it is all due her attitude which forced to bring our longtime friendship to such an end that we would never gonna meet together again. She thinks that she knows everything. But bitch please!! She really didn’t knew a shit of our friendship.
Now all I wanna say something in the end, with these few Lines.
Again her
Vanity raised
Again her
Ego retained,
Again her
Agony ignited
Again her
Fakeness proclaimed.
Enough with
all these shits of
Deja-Vu occurred
with that familiar
taste of pain,
Burying those
past memories which
now I regret
to even happen,
our DNA of friendship
has been splitted
forever in vain.
Thanks for my memories, Bitch !!

The ‘B-ves’ of My Life (Day 8 Of Truth)
The following Post is for accomplishing Creative Challenge called 30 Days of Truth, given by Kellie Elmore. It is a unique exercise in self exploration and learning to be honest with yourself… and that ultimately leads to happiness.
*****************************************************************************************
In the World of Ying-Yang, if you have some odds in favor then definitely there would be some odds against you as well. Taking an example of Blood Groups, an A never matches with a B. And there’s the same kind of situation with my Life as well. Myself (A) never, ever gonna deal with them (B’s). Since my Blood Group is ‘A positive’ (A+ve), so I call them ‘B negatives’ (B-ve).
Totally Opposite!! 😛
Confused? I think you would be. But the following types of people with whom I’ve met so far, have made my Life annoying and miserable enough to categorize them like this.
1. BULLIES with Power
That’s an obvious nightmare for the Good Boys when they have to encounter these Chauvinist Bad Boys, mostly in School days. My Childhood was Simple, Peaceful, Study-Focused and away from Fist Fights. It’s a good thing for your teachers and parents, but not for the Bullies. They just hate you for no reasons. I have been imitated by them a lot. Even sometimes I was humiliated as well in Class by them. It’s not so easy to fight back for your own dignity at that time. First of all, they all come together to tease you and so, you’re all alone. Secondly, they’ll take you down easily even if you try to fight back, as they are stronger than you. That’s why they are Bullies, obsessed with Power and Strength. And lastly, you always remember the morals that your teachers and parents taught. Nobody wants to get their hands dirty.
I’ve lost a lot of times. But when the threshold of tolerance and patience gets over the limit, I’ve settled the score in a duel, for which I regretted a lot afterward as I never wanted to be like them. But sometimes, you have to do for getting your respect back.
Anyways, now when I look them after 5-6 years, they don’t seem like what they used to appear when I was kid. Not Bullies anymore, but not even my Friends. 😛
However, Bullies keep changing, but they will always come in your Life. Some of my College Seniors are just like them. Sometimes, they just keep trying to tease me on my appearances. But I don’t mess with them as I’m now matured and experienced of tolerating this thing. This Seniority SHIT would even be present during my Job days as well.
2. BORES without Life
Some people really need to have a Life as they stalk on others’ Life for every GOD DAMN moment. It’s kinda trespassing someone’s privacy. The same things have been experienced by me. I’ve encountered a lot of people who either kept asking questions about me and my Life or started giving me useless suggestions as if they know me well. I’m not saying that, they don’t have right to advice me, but please stop giving useless advices when they even don’t know the circumstances of my situations. It’s intolerable and irritating.
However, I have few good friends to whom I’ve told almost about myself, my ambitions and even shared some of my grieves. But don’t and never discuss with many as people hardly understand you. They would get sympathize at that time, but in the end they all forget and treat you like normal. Even I don’t need any sympathy and publicity for myself. As I’d rather get treated equally than being hurt.
Plus, some people keep on criticizing me for being a Facebook alcoholic. They think I’m wasting my Time on there. But the fact they don’t know that though I’m kinda introvert in reality, but highly extrovert in Social Networking Sites. I mean, who doesn’t? People would like to get rid of their boring life and have fun in Facebook. Even I like to interact with my Net Friends and so, I have a Social Life.
But still these morons presume such shitty perceptions that used to piss me off. However, now I really don’t care as they keep boring me with those same ole responses.
3. BASTARDS with Ego
Now-a-days, everybody has its own Ego. And the moment gets when the Ego clashes out of nowhere. Personally, I can’t stand with such people who have a lot of ego and pride for their own so-called specialty. It’s good that they have such specialty in themselves, but that doesn’t means that they have right to flaunt everywhere especially to them who don’t have any. Still I bear their rants most of times. But when the breaking point of my patience and tolerance has reaches, I bashed in a battle for the sake of my dignity and respect.
They just tried to take me down, proving me wrong as well and therefore, proving that they are the best while I’m wrong. Bastards! 😛
4. BITCHES with Everything!
These days, people are so multi-tasking. Seriously man! I won’t be able to find out how they all do that. But since some of them get just because though comforts and being fortunate, I sometimes get jealous with them.
I’m a college guy and I’ve seen plenty of guys around me who are phenomenal apart from their academic scores. Obviously, they are exceptional and fortunate to get the success soon. It’s their headache to mingle with various tasks, which they do remarkably well.
Overall, I still respect these ‘Supernaturals’ as token of inspiration. But Honestly, I’m not like them. Since I’ve got a BIG competition in my college, I’ve been defeated a lot and I admit it though I gave my 100%. But my point of view would be considered as Lame Excuses as My people don’t understand me at all. They’ll still compare their (the multi-task performers’) triumphs with my failures and even expect me to like them. That really makes me SICK as in spite of getting some support and a little appreciation of my efforts, I get taunts of not being extra-ordinary.
I’m not like them and never want to be like them. If I’m trying to pretend to be like them, then I’ll definitely lose my own identity. Plus, the thing I believe, as someone told me once that “If you’re trying everything, then you would not be Master of Anything. But if you’re trying something, then you’re definitely the Master of that Thing.” I still makes me amazed why people do 10 things even if they know they hardly 1-2 would be useful in their future. Most of my College Toppers and even some of my Tech-minded Seniors would still try to think for MBA. Even in the vast Technical Lines, people would mug 10-20 different topics like nuts. Maybe just to prove the world that they are super-intelligent and smart.
Actually, this is where our Education System lacks. We are taught 10-20 different topics and sometimes even useless subjects out of our interests. Plus, you get a crappy out of the format Question Papers in the Examinations, which would make you mad. Of course, the Engineering Life in College gonna SUCK !! Those Hard-ass Supernatural bitches would mug up and achieve higher grades in Examinations. And Dumb-asses like me, having interests on certain topics would be screwed and be ranted with humiliation for whole Life. And therefore with or without any intentions, they have made my Life miserable.
Sometimes I get so depressed from such dilemma for a long time. But still I wake up in the morning in an optimistic hope that things would be change. But Changes never come on their own, they are being brought. If these B-ves of my Life quit annoying the A+ves like me, then we’ll definitely gonna have a better place to Live. Hopefully, that day comes sooner. 🙂

The Unlikely and Unwanted Experience
I left my PC completely idle, though my Facebook Account was logged in. I was having my Dinner and watching my favorite TV Show. Suddenly, my felt something unusual (which actually was THE MIGHTY EARTHQUAKE), but I ignored it as if it might be my Mobile vibrating vigorously.
But later on, my Sister rang me up. She seemed to be so worried as she immediately asked me, whether I was OKAY and FINE !! Well that time, I was like, Why are you asking so ?? Apart from Morning blasts, what else worse gonna happen in Delhi now and most importantly to me ?? She told me to watch the NEWS asap. Giving an affirmative to her order, I just switched to a Random News Channel and just saw the news which even made me worried as well. We’ve been attacked by an Earthquake. Though it had an impact of 6.6 Richter Scale, but it hardly lasted for 4-5 seconds without any mass destruction. Simple tremors, but still very effective to be terrified at the moment.
Hearing this News, I ran to a safer place, bit away from my House. After waiting outside for 10-15 minutes, I came back home,completed my Dinner, bumped into my Computer Desk once again, and therefore, writing a Status Update in Facebook about this anticipating experience. 😦
My FacebookStatus Update on Today's Delhi Earthquake
But fellas, It seemed like I was not the only one around there posting on the same thing. 😛
My Facebook Friends' Status Update on Today's Delhi Earthquake
I guess, we People won’t be having a LIFE without FACEBOOK even if we might be in DANGER any time. As a matter of Fact, we’ve just felt a 6.6 Richter Scale EARTHQUAKE in Delhi, again the place where we’ve already witnessed a Bomb Blast in Delhi High Court this past morning. But we people, rather saving ourselves from this inevitable natural disaster.,we would still be Busy in our Social-Networking Lives. Now, that’s the heights of Facebook Addiction. 😦
Anyways, I thought of studying late night, for my upcoming College Mid Semester Exams. But Now, I’m really feeling Insomniac and even remain more ALERT just in case. Just having a Cup of Coffee and Listening Soft Music in the meantime to make my mind feel good.
Hopefully, any day like Today, never be so miserable. 🙂

I know, but that one is cute. As Missy has quite possibly met any one of several violent ends, it is possible you might get a better cat out of this. If anybody calls and says “I haven’t seen your orange cat but I did find a black and white one with its hind legs run over by a car, do you want it?” you can politely decline and save yourself a costly veterinarian bill.
I knew someone who had a basset hound that had its hind legs removed after an accident and it had to walk around with one of those little buggies with wheels. If it had been my dog I would have asked for all its legs to be removed and replaced with wheels and had a remote control installed. I could charge neighbourhood kids for rides and enter it in races. If I did the same with a horse I could drive it to work. I would call it Steven.
