My Newest Fad

I am completely in love with Tumblr. Its such an amazing website where you can read all these wonderful posts about anything and everything under the sun. I Tumble upon so many amazing posts online.

Here's the link to my Tumblr. I use it mainly for browsing and reblogs though so there aren't personal posts. But, what the heck!

Quoting one of my favorite posts on Tumblr:

You'll learn more about me through my Tumblr, than you'll ever learn about me through my Facebook.

So very apt. Facebook stinks, except for the fact that most of my friends are on it.

Trying to define me....

Hey, little girl

Hey, little girl, look up; look around
All the bad, nasty people have gone.

Close your umbrella, it's not raining anymore
Let your hands fly, it's your turn to soar.

Watch your step. You might trip and fall
But you'll only be making yourself stronger from it all

You might never forget things, its okay; you dont have to
Didn't each step only make you stronger? Acknowledge it, get the cue

Feel the breeze through your hair, hear the soft hum
There's so much more to life, don't you dare run.

You have someplace you belong, you've got somebody to love
Recall your favorite word - volare - rise above

Look into the mirror, see what you want to see
Sunshine, you have grown up; be what you want to be!

What's on my mind

2/06
Im not the same girl I was back in eighth grade,
Today, I can speak up for myself and stare back unafraid.


Anybody who knew me back then would agree that those lines suit me to a T.

5/06

Thank you! For at the end of it, if nothing else, you have left me a lot wiser. I'll be cautious the next time around

Then & Now

Here is quick thought running in my head right now:

*Then*
All this while even if I would spot you pass by,
I would turn the other way, before you could say 'Hi!'

*Now*
But now why is it that even the thought of you leaving,
Makes me feel like there's a hole in my heart in the making

*But why???*
Why the weird feeling? It makes no sense; I feel so in vain
Have to try to make my mind coherent, a little realistic and sane

A birthday message. . . .

This was a birthday message to a very dear friend. I had an amazing time. Hope he did too:):)
So here goes......

You are truly one of the most special people to me,

Here’s a shoutout from me that is not so cheeky

You always have a different way of looking at things,

A lighter take on everything – including my obsession with rings

Every time we meet, I end up reaching a little too soon

But you make up by coming with me for movies like New Moon!

You’ve influenced my music and taken me away from those Silly Love Songs;

But don’t forget, we still have to do our Blame it on the a-a-a-a-a-a-hol

One thing I don’t get is your addiction to Counter Strike

Of all the really awesome sports, THAT is what you choose to like?

When I was stuck in the biggest whirlpool of my life

It was you, Bhaav, who taught me how to strive

No matter what happens, remember, I am here to stay

Even though the way you play with your hair is so gay!

May you have not just a really awesome day,

But a lifetime of happiness strewn along your way

Once again, wish you a very HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

The Monster

What I should do, what I should not,

The thoughts are tethering my brain into a knot

What I should say, think, do, mind

Maybe a little change will help me find

So I leave, despite the pouring rain

I walk upright, showing others no sign of strain

But solitude fills a different scare inside me

My instincts tell me that someone is following me

My pace quickens; I start gasping for breath

Losing my way didn’t matter; my mind was focussed on the threat

Too tired to run anymore, I look ahead

And exclaim, for I have reached a dead end.

Through the faint street light, I see the monster approaching behind

I scream and turn around; on meeting my end so soon I wasn’t quite inclined.

But there was nobody there; I then had an epiphany

I realised where my “monster” was - the inside of me.

I wrote this poem just a few minutes back, and came up with it while listening to Lady Gaga’s Monster (although it has no correlation with my poem, apart from the title of course). I have realised that there is always someone/something holding me back. I want to do so much more. I know I deserve and am capable of doing all of it. There is a lot more to me than meets the eye. However, there is always something that comes in my way. And more times than few, that person is me.

There’s always a ‘what if’ or a ‘but’ that pops up every time I think of doing something. So the “monster” is inside of me, and not someplace else. And from now on, I shall choose to ignore it and endure my march ahead
