Insects!

I have insectophobia. I hate them. In the past 3 months it has never been that my face has not been without an insect bite. Now , without all the marks of their bites remaining, my friends have forgotten how I looked earlier. Even I don't remember , rather I don't acknowledge any change.

They do not bite me below the waist. Never. But have a certain liking to pee their acids on my face , specially my eyelids. They know it will hurt me most over there. They even bit me once , on my eyelid, just above the eye. It was the most horrific. It has been always when I have been asleep.
I have found a solution. I do not sleep at night , lest they bite me again. I sleep during the day. I see the sun rise everyday. Only then do I sleep. The side-effects, I know , will be catastrophic....but at least my face would be safe.

I went to my professor asking to go home. I have already exhausted my leave. My reason was simple. I showed her my face. 3 months....and she knows that.
She didn't allow me. She did not stand up to her reputation of being a house-wife. I will curse her for this all her life ... probably beyond that as well. She cannot feel my fear for insects. Well may be the pigmentation loss around my eye did not allow her to see the truth in them. Anyways, she will be cursed.

I went to a doctor yesterday. Asked him for reasons. He said it was an unproven fact that insects will bite me whenever they get a chance. He blamed the statistics. At least now I don't have any moral obligation towards myself.

The Tilak

I went to Prayag yesterday. Sangam. After staying in Allahabad for 2 years. Basically the motive was to go for boating.
One of my friends started to wash his sins. I did it too. Everyone else was doing it. Sometimes its better to join the crowd.
Then we went to the Hanuman Temple, which is quite famous as folk has it that the Ganga comes inside the temple to wash His feet. It was the second time in 2 years that I had gone to a temple.My friend's first.I put the orange tilak on my forehead.
We bought Masterstroke, Bacardi and Romanov. Had bought for five of us, was consumed between 3. I had left drinking, the excuse was to get totally drunk. It was the last time.
A peg, 2. Quarter. Half. another.
It sure was memorable , though nothing is clear in my mind.
The only thing that i remember is me staring at my face and the orange tilak on it.

Orkut v/s Facebook

Orkut seemed lame a month ago.

Suddenly orkut has applications .
And not only that , it has themes and games.Thats all that i could discover without an orkut account. The reason i deleted mine was because it seemed lame to have exactly 1015 scraps for 2 months...not even forwards increased the count.

I switched to facebook which was considered a much sacred domain than orkut.

But orkut , suddenly seems interesting. I have seen people play teen patti, and play and play.

Plus change the themes in their homepage.

Suddenly, orkut doesnt seem lame.
And although initially it seemed that all the applications-thing was copied from facebook and myspace , it doesnt seem so anymore.
It seems to be more of innovation now.
Orkut has come back with a bang.
And now i repent deleting my profile. The 1015 could have continued a few more months.

I woke up at 7!!!! I woke up at 7!!!!

Life these days

It's been the nth time that i have cut myself with my razor , out of the n+1 i have done . The first time i shaved.....i remember my sister gifting(rather forcing) me to shave on rakshabandhan....it was a perfect shave.
Ever since then....i cut myself....everytime, without fail. I even bought foam yesterday....today i have 3 cuts...
My friends laugh at me , the only person who can cut himself with a vector plus.........here iam , this is me.


I sleep at 6 (in the morning). Read a comment in Pooja's. I felt ashamed that the world wakes up at that time. But I think I'll continue a few more days . The heat is terrible in the day.


Come wednesday, and i'll become a housewife(no offense ) . For 2 hours , i'll shop at big bazaar, inquire about food products having maximum discounts, i never buy things having less than 50% discount.....that's one of my principles( Wednesday because you get max imum discounts on that day, and this principle has an excuse of haldiram mathri's.) For 2 hours , I will be there with the Allahabad Aunties Association(AAA) checking out the prices , taking and giving a few suggestions , and sometimes playing around with their kids.


I don't like any food now, they all taste the same for me. El-Chico, Friends, Sizzler point,Punjabi,Tripathi, Canteen. Mom, I miss home. And the food.
For a change I have been to the mess for the last 2 meals. Why should i waste money when i don't like that food.

I started reading Ayn Rand, haven't made past 50 pages in the past 1 week. Her forceful writing induces sleep in me. And imagine, I like economics.

I tried Netbeans on Ubuntu. It's support for unicode sucks. Switched to XP, could not install sound drivers.....then there was no support at all for East-Asian languages.
After 3 days the system is fine now...

But the life and the routine is still the same.

Somebody jolt me.

Why does blogger show " 1 comments " ?
It gets on to me, more so because the number of comments i get on my blog rarely exceed "1 comments".

The real person

Why is Rowan Etkinson( Mr. Bean) frustrated ? Rather depressed?
Who is the real Bean?
Why does life has such irony?
