Favourite ♥ w.o.r.d ♥

would it sound weird if i tell you that my favorite word and its "butterfly" .? [what.? you have a favorite what.? WORD.? are you in kindergarten.?  ]
believe it or not..recently i have become what you call an 'ardent admirer' [is that the right word.? =O err..] of the word "butterfly".. :)
i dont know why i'm crazy about this word..maybe because butterflies are one of the very few things in nature that amazes me..there's something charming about a butterfly..the striking colors and the swift flutter of its wings..
the best thing about the word is that it is a combo of two very very cute words.."butter" and "fly".. :)
'Butter' reminds me of the times when my grandmother gave me a handful of freshly taken butter..i remember gulping down the first handful and asking her for more..
and about 'fly'..for me fly = freedom..floating in air carefree!
i wonder why butterflies were named this way..i can agree with the 'fly' part..but what about 'butter'.?
[any ideas..anyone.? :) I'd love to know your version! ]
i pondered over these stewpid things all day long..and ended up being totally clueless..i felt silly..like totally!
a few days after that,i felt so happy when i found out that one of besties has a favorite word too! when i asked her what her favourite word was..she told me dat its "estewpedee" .. for a moment i thought that it was some complicated word i havent even heard of..but the next thing my bestie told made me burst out with laughter..it was not even a word..and she seemed so sad about it..paavam..=P

friends..forever..:)

tight as a knot we're bound together
although we're young we'll promise to be friends forever..
you are a gem..so precious and rare..

you convert my tears to smiles..
you lend me your shoulders to cry on
and you hold me tight when i'm shaken..

we spent our days together with joy and glee
we laughed till our stomaches ached..
and we did the craziest of things together..

walking in the rain..
fighting for a cornetto..
the laughter..the fun..the pranks played at school..

you made my life colourful..
you made each day seem new..
made my life woth living..

but as i look back..i think..
what have i done for you..
and i find no answers..i'm totally clueless..

i may not always see it
when you stumble and fall..
i may not always know it
when you're helpless and there's noone for you to call..
i may not always hear you
when you cry in bed at night..

you may not always like me
and we wont just get along..
sometimes i may screw things up
and would never admit that i was wrong
i know that i'm nowhere near perfect..

but i promise you..
that i'll stick with you through thick and thin..
i'll be there..to mend your broken heart
and to try and make you smile..
'cos you gave me memories so vivid..
and i ought to pay back for those..


this one'x foe kitty n geet..my bezties at skul.!
i miss yew so very mch! :(

the lamest article eva written! :P

i was heading to go to bed when i suddenly remembered that i had my chemistry to complete.it was already 9.30 and i had just returned
after my tuitions.one part of my brain kept telling me.."medz! you know that you're tired..why care about that goddamn assignment.? go SLEEP!!"  at the same time..another part told me.."dont you dare not do the assignment! you've got to do it darling.! "
i yearned to sleep on my warm and cozy bed..i was so very lazy.!
but then the goodie-good part of me made me head to my study table.i started working out my chemistry numericals.i aint getting anything! >X
mann..i'm damned.! :(    >X
err..wait..i think i know this one.my brain had just come to the right track when a piercing sound stopped me.it came from my clock!
yea..my pink mickey mouse clock had just started beeping..violently!!
now now..my clock aint like this all the time..its a creepy cute pink thing that sits at the extreme left corner of my studytable.i ignore it..like totally! i dont even look at it to check the time..:P [ i run downstairs to look at the clock in the drawing room instead! i noe..this is insane..]
now this stupid thing has stolen all my attention for the first time since i bought that thing!
and the noise it was creating..was unbearable!! omg! it kinda pierced through my eardrum..
mm..okay..i can fix this thing..i thought
then i fumbled on the keys and buttons at its back.no use!! it just continued beeping..on and on..n this irritated me to death!
okay..there;s got to be some other way..i thought..and then i hit hard behind that damn thing with feeble hopes that those beeps would stop..somehow..
but it didnt do any good! except for that red mark on my palm..
now i was totally pissed off..those beeps reminded me of reality shows where we'd only hear a beep when people shouted swear words at each other.i even felt that the clock had some solid grudge on me..n it was taking revenge by yelling swear words at me..
[how insanely lame..isnt it.?! :O this is the extent to which my imagination goes when i'm crazy! :P ]
my iritation grew out of bounds..i couldnt concentrate on chemistry anymore..so here i am writing this crazily stewpid and totally silly thing
about my pink clock..:P yea..my clock..:O eww..

When i saw a rainbow..for the first time

One day,mom,my little bro and me were walking urgently through the crowded city,heading somewhere.And the weather
was totally bright and sunny.but then there was a slight drizzle.And my bro suddnely asked my mom "its sunny n its raining too..where is the rainbow.?" And then i was like "rainbow.? oh cummon..be real! they appear only in story books and fairy tales.!"
my bro could not accept the fact that rainbows dont always appear.for him,if there is the sun and the rain,then there has to be a rainbow!
He looked at mom..with disbelief in his wide eyes.My mom tried to explain that you wouldn't always see rainbows.but my bro still didnt believe it.
And then mom said to him.."Remember when we were in payyannoor..when we saw a rainbow in the sky.? how beautiful the sight was! "
and both of them got crazy and over excited and started talking crazily about it..while i listened..though totally disinterested..thinking
about something else.Mom disturbed me from my deep thoughts and asked "have you ever seen a rainbow?" and i said "no.."
My mom couldnt believe it..She then started talking like i'm deprived of something very essential.She was actually sad for me!
And i was like "what's there in a rainbow.? i dont care whether i've seen it or not!" Now..i'm someone who cant take in the beauty of nature.
I mean..when i see something beautiful around..a rare butterfly or a colourful hummingbird,i'll think, "okay..its beautiful"..but i dont get excited
or poetic when i see those.but mom is like..totally different.! She just cant accept the fact that i dont feel happy or excited when i come across
the beauties of nature! i walked on..totally annoyed..when my bro suddenly blurted out.."I told you there would be a rainbow! see i found it out! "
I suddenly turned to see my mom n bro literally jumping on the footpath..totally hyper excited..their mission of finding a rainbow successful.
"why the hell are they geting all hyper.?" i thought..
Only then did i look at the sky.And there it was. "THE" rainbow..there it was..like a huge glittering arch! :)
I could all those seven colours..I dunno what i did..but i was gaping at it..wide eyed..i'd never seen anything so beautiful before..
But then..when i looked around me,i saw the bustling city..the busy people..people in bikes overtaking each other..
people barely noticed this beautiful thing in the sky..it was like there was a roof above them and they couldnt see what was going on in the sky.
I wanted to shout out "HEY PEOPLE!! YOU'VE GOT A RAINBOW IN THE SKY..JUST LOOK AT IT!! " But obviously..i didnt..
This little memory was very very special to me..in numerous ways.One of them being that its the first time could actually take in the beauty of nature..And ofcourse,that made my hands feel itchy..:P and that's how this article was born!

twilight

"about three things i was absolutely positive..
first, edward was a vampire
second,there was a part of him,i didnt know how dominant that part might be,that
thirsted for my blood
third,i was i was unconditionally and irrevocably in love with him"


these are my favourite lines from the book 'twilight' by stephenie meyer.i've read this book nearly ten times and i'm still not bored with it! i'm totally crazy about this book.
well,my friends were crazy about it even before i was.all of them used to go bonkers,talking about it.
and once i cut into their deep conversation and asked them what twilight was [yea..i hadnt even heard about twilight at that time..] ,
my friends literally jumped up from their seats [like they had springs fitted on their seats..:P ] and asked me, "you dont know what twilight is? shame on you! "
i was surprised.what's so special about this book..i thought. i pressed my friends to tell me more about it but all i got from them was that it was a vampire romance novel.my first reaction to it was like, "vampires.? and romance? are my friends crazy?!"
soon,twilight was all my class talked about.reading twilight almost became an entry pass to the so-called "in" crowd of the class.i felt so left out amongst all of them.
thats when i decided that i should read this book,no matter what.and after that,there was no looking back.
i just plunged into the depths of the book.i've never read something so gripping before!

the story is from the narrative of bella swan,a simple and silent girl. 17 year old bella falls in love with the mysterious,the perfect,edward cullen,who,as she later finds out,is a 104 year old vampire.
bizarre..isnt it.?!  not if you've read the book!
another 'supernatural' creature that comes in the book are werewolves.bella's friend,jacob black belongs to a werewolf family.
in this book,stephenie meyer talks about creatures like vampires and werewolves with such simplicity,
that you feel they're natural beings.
after reading twilight,i almost started believing that such creatures actually exist! [No..i havn't gone crazy or anything! wait till YOU read the book! ]

and about the romance part,twilight isnt like those cheesy,"guy-stands-on-his-knees-and-proposes-the-girl-with-a-bunch-of-redroses" [phew! that was long! :P] kind of a book.
the love,romance between edward and bella is very intense,natural and above all "human".
the romance part is written so amazingly well that you'd read those parts over and over again! i myself read it trillions of times!
bella's fascination for edward is etched in every word and every line she speaks.she compares edward to everything  beautiful and handsome..right from a runway model to a greek god!

the ending of the story,though,is quite typical.its the same old 'damsel in distress' kind of a story,where edward heroically saves bella from the clutches of an "evil" vampire.win of good over evil..end of the story!
its all so obvious in the ending.but the story has a special magic/charm of its own.you'll never put the book down until you finish reading it!


PS : this is supposed to be a book review.but after re-reading the whole thing,i guess it has turned into something else! so..please bear with me..and yes,i may have left out many important points of the story.. do let me know if there is something like that!

..

i'm totally clueless about what's with me these days.i've gone kind of crazy..or lunatic is the right word i guess! maybe its the exam stress [well..i'm not worried or stressed out because its exams now.but the whole "EXAM" atmosphere deppresses me!]  or maybe its just that i dont get to meet my friends so often. i've got no clue about what's making me do this but i write like crazy these days!
earlier,,it used to be like,,some little poems and stories now and then.
but now its like,i dont know,,everything's just too much!
i scribble all my creations [most of them totally bizarre] into an old notebook of mine.and as soon as i finish writing,i read it once more.and  in a reflex,i'd either cut the whole thing out and say things like, "eww..is that what you call a poem?!" and "omg..why do my writings have to be so lame?!"..

there's this long thing i wrote about my tenth standard.my impressions about tenth at the beginning,,thinking that it would be dreadfully boring and realizing later that my preconceptions were so very wrong! i wrote about how much fun we all had..the fights for each other's lunchboxes..snatching food from the others..the whole class and one icecream..the exam time..the embarrassing moments..the times i cried and so on..
i remember writing,rewriting and editing this thing.and after all this "hardwork" , all i did was just strike the whole thing off!

another thing i wrote was about my tuition classes.about the fun i had with  my tuition mates..our tuition teacher..about how we used to climb the walls there and get scoldings from people.
about how i miss tuition and my friends from other schools now..
and i named it "tuitions are not only about studies" . it turned out to be kind of good but i abandoned that article halfway through!

and there were those lame poems of mine.ohh..they were pathetic!
i wrote about each and everything in this whole universe! from stars and the moon,the rain and the sunshine to chocolates and black nailcolor.. [yes..! a poem about "black nailcolor" ..!! omg! how crazy my ideas turn out to be..even i cant predict my actions sometimes! ]

those poems and stories i struck off and tore out,instead of discouraging me,has 'inspired' me to write this one and ofcourse,,to post it here! :)
after all,no one else can write the way i do..:)

my soul sister..

i'm not sure about where to begin or where to start..
all i really know is that this poem is from my heart..
this may sound confusing - it is for me too..
but i'm ready to begin this poem specially for you..

i wonder how you know it
when i cry reading those long mails of yours..
i wonder how you laugh with me
over my stupid jokes and silly thoughts..
i wonder how your words could console me
from far away when i cry over the phone..
i wonder how you could stand
those dumb girly talks of mine..
i wonder how you could stand it
when i fought with you over things
that werent really your fault..

the best thing ever was finding a friend just like you..
you've let me be who i am..
and tell you how i feel..
however stupid or silly that is..

sometimes i feel like telling you
"thanks for all you've done!"
but those words fly from my head
as fast as they come..

i think what you've done
deserves more than just a thanks..
and that' exactly why
i've penned down this one for you..
love you loads..
you're my angel..my soul sister..!!



[this one's dedicated to my friend n sister n cousin..geethu..:) luv u ]
