The final countdown has begun.
I am so SCARED.
Disha is getting married. Period.
Why? That’s my first though now. She is my sister. You can’t get her married. She is the only one I have. You can’t take her away from me. We are SISTER’S.
‘Disha’ means Directions (Rolling my eyes) and for nuts in my lifetime according to me she can’t direct anyone on the road, but she has always been an ideal daughter and a perfect sister one could ask for (You get it whether you want it or not. No options there, if your the younger sibling)
Hopefully she never reads this post or she will never let me live down my image ‘Deepti-the-Cruella-sister-who-is-the-ice-princess-and-pain-in-the-***.
What can I say about that girl? I know for sure my sister annoys, interferes, and criticize. Indulge in monumental sulks, in huffs, in snide remarks. Borrow. Break. Monopolize the bathroom. Is always underfoot. But if catastrophe should strike, Disha has always been there. Defending me against all comers. I can go on non-stop about it and also write books on her. Series 1 -5 atleast, I tell you. But I don’t know if I can stay without her.
Disha has always been this personality/character/person which I have never been able to feature or project it within myself. I guess she is everything which is missing within me. And boy aren’t I so glad about that, she has all of those qualities which every parent would be proud about. (Because I am for sure missing large chunks of those chromosomes which are categorized as the ‘Good Daughter’ – Big time people) I guess on some level it’s a huge relief to me because their elder daughter is a blessing while the younger one is a devil-disguised-as-an-angel :)
Disha has always been my leeway and gateway. She is everything which I am NOT. Like sweet, compromising, understanding, sharing, caring and thoughtful (OMG!!! she sounds too perfect. Just like a perfect ad) she has always stood by me; whether it’s to convince my parents for late nights, parties, make-up tips, dressing and boys. More than Santa Claus, my sister knows when I have been bad and good.
She is my mirror, shining back at me (or seething in fury most of the time) with a world of possibilities. She is my witness, who sees me at my worst (more likely) and best, and loves me anyway (I know something, that you think I don’t know -Smirky Smile). She is my partner in crime (because she is not given any choice), my midnight companion, someone who knows when I am smiling (innocent one - whenever I flick her clothes, shoes, bags, money or anything that is labeled under ‘HER’ things- which-cannot-be-touched-by-me). I can love her dearly and want to wring her neck at the same time.
Hey, don’t get me wrong, I am so happy she is getting married (the drawers are going to be empty finally and their is clean bathroom in the morning, thank lord for small mercies I tell you) But I am going to miss her. Though both of us aren’t physically or verbally good at conveying our emotions, love, support, bonding and understanding towards each other but we do share silent conversations and communication which have lent us strength to battle all our worries, chase our demons and share our love with our parents.
Sweety, I will miss you, but I am really happy for you. You deserve the best. It was nice growing up with someone like you - someone to lean on, someone to count on... someone to tell on!
Sister to sister we will always be,
A couple of nuts off the family tree.
Cheers!!!

PID- Psychedelic, Innovative and Dandy
Let’s not start over the same whimpering and cribbing about how ‘Irregular’ I am at blogging. I have been too busy or just have disguised my laziness under the pretension that ‘I am just too busy at work’.
I am back to the mortal world of working class category; it has been one rollercoaster. It has been fun, crazy, mad house and exhausting. But it has been blissful demanding days. I am constantly laughing like a ‘Ginny Goat’ (I can imagine that, all that bones rattling in my body when I am on laughing spree) as suggested by colleague Savita, who has been the source of all that smiles, giggles and fun. She is one GEM of lady. She is a perfect persona of a daughter, mother & a friend. Then there is Manisha, who has been helping me with my ‘pro-nun-cia-tion’ of the word ‘Bitter Gourd’. Her idea of teaching me is to pronounce it in similar fashion, syllabus and vowel as ‘Peter Gourd’ (Bitter-Peter, Bitter-Peter, do you get it…… even I really don’t get it but it definitely brings smile on my face……By the way Peter is my colleague, he is a cool and is unaware that we keep fooling with his name)……..She is fanatical, I tell you. Monika is fun and very helpful. She has been steering me towards the right direction since I have been in this office. Nami (Namita) is one hot n spicy fiery lady. And then there is Mr Rajeev, he reminds me a lot about one particular person who is extremely efficient and multi tasking. Rajeev, can do ten things at one time and his mind is still processing ten things which need to be done after he first finishes the first ten things. And dude, that one guy know how to work with an Excel sheet……OMG!!! You know like when I am bored I read, scribble, and watch the idiot box but Rajeev’s idea of relaxing in leisure must be confronting the ‘EXCEL SHEET’ and conquering it. Dude; just give him anything and ‘Voila’ there it is perfect and presentable. (I have been besieged with excel sheet, it definitely puts me to shame and makes me look illiterate but I plan to conquer it……..errrrrs let me just set it this way, that I plan to learn on how to use Excel sheet to its best advantage, conquering and all that will be too much for me.
It has overall been a good experience working around with lot of eccentric ideas with interesting people in the office.
But I have been missing my ‘I, Me and Myself’ time. I really haven’t had the time to communicate to myself or even have a pleasant relaxing sit down in eons and decades. (It already feels one) I miss it. It has always been good conversations in the past. Even the solitude and the silence with oneself cheers me up any day. It just feels right and makes me ‘purr’ like cat who’s got her share of sun.
“If there is one spot of sun spilling onto the floor, a cat will find it and soak it up.”
It’s high time I find my contentment and share of sun soon too. Hope to unwind just one of these days. Till then I will joint down some points for my next blog (Which I plan, hope and pray to be more regular) with some original-out-of-the-box-ideas.
Cheers!!!

Better Late Than Never
Hello to one and all (Hardly more than one or two people are going to read this, still) I know as you must guessed it’s been more than four months since I have been here. I guess I am little lost or I have lost my muse. (DAMN, it’s no fun)
In the prior post I had an idea that sounded great in my head. I had thought that it was going to be a terrific post, and it turned into the "hot idea meets mediocrity" thing in a hurry.
Oh well. At times I have considered deleting every post that I dislike or think is weak. It would make a stronger portfolio but the rules of the blog maintain that the good live with the bad. Unless the bad is so bad that horrible is not a good description of how bad it is.
Anyways I will catch you soon with a good post (one can always hope)............Hope there is something out there which is funny, serious, and ridiculous or strange which catches my attention.......Hope to post soon....
Cheers!!!
