Excuses.. Grrrr!!

Few must have read this post when i mailed them the pics of my trip to a falls..
Anyways here it goes.. (i hate NOT updating my blog. i´ve kept it lonely for too long.. its gotta be functional again)

It s a tough task convincing people for a trip. As always, a lot of cribbing n explanation is involved. Why dont ppl just agree in One go?
Where are you going? Who all are coming? What is there to see? How far is it? How are we gonna go? When to leave? What time r v gonna return? 100 questions and 100 answers. 99 percent of the replies are imaginary just to calm down the anxieties of the companions. I mean its alright to ask all these questions. Ofcourse planning is required. But then there are those who simply ask, JUST ENQUIRE n NOTHING ELSE. After babbling continously, wherein u on the brink of certainty that u have convinced them to accompany you on the trip, they FLATLY refuse. aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaargh! couldnt u have said that before? Just a simple NO..thats it! hey there´s more.. How could i forget those silly-billy reasons. DISASTER!!.. they´ve got plenty of them. Its fun listening to them. No doubt, sometimes they can be frustrating too (when u hear the same ridiculous enlightment over and over again.. ya they try their level-best to ensure u that the reason is genuine! Part of the mockery)

The different silly answers to the invitation were:
1) I have to go home (this s d commonest and SILLIEST of all)
2) Cant bunk tomorrow (ya, we left on saturday for the trip) Lets go on sunday. ya, ya i know how many are gonna agree on sunday. On sunday, u´ll come up with things like -- ur preparing for a seminar/not keeping well/ warden is not allowing/booked tickets for a movie/going for shopping/birthday treat.. blah blah.. the list goes on!!
3) Couldnt you tell before? (this wacks me out-- come on, ´trip´goers have been screaming their hearts out in postings yelling, we r going to falls this week. all have heard it LOUD N CLEAR but still they voice out their concern for the trip 'Innocently' --- what ya Xorkes, couldnt u inform before? )AAAAAAAAAAArghhhhhh!! Shut up!
4) Chikungunya in certain areas--- Use Odomos Boss or wear Plastics/Helmet n Come.. Grrrrr!!

There are many more justifications.. I cant belive it i am actually typing them out.. venting out my frustration rather!!

You can add on to the silly excuses that you/someone have/has attempted which pissed them/you off..

Here i go again

Hello everyone. whats happening?? where´s everyone??
well well, i know the question has to go back to its old ways -- Xorkes whazzzzup?

Back 2 Mlore

Hello everyone. I´m back again.. tra la la.. ya back to mangalore :) Usually, i have this nostalgic feeling when i land here. But seems like my brains have figured out a way to deal with it, or rather they have become insensitive to not even think about it. The senti feeling dint even occur to me once. SAD ya!! Whats wrong with me? Xorkes, sit n think ya. Why arent u scrutinizing all this.. It atleast helps to add few lines to the post ya. And now look at you, You´ve got nothing to write. Ho kya raha hain? Shame on you!! ;)
Today, someone asked me dont u miss home? And thats when it struck, "Arre haan, main toh abhi mangalore mein hoon. malum hi nahin pada" lol.. (Maybe its the Rains. Ya, it has been BRILLIANT N PLEASING. Heavy rains since i´ve stepped my foot here. Yipeeee!! I can see frogs jumping around.. Yip, yip its fun catching and releasing them)
Anyways, Mumbai was as always goooood -- the best! Spent good time with Family. Met most of my friends (many schoolmates after YEARRRRS)
Slept in the mornings.
Got up in the afternoons. Had breakfast at 2pm.. Usually skipped lunch.
Then again ate something in the evening. Hopped out of the house. Returned at night. Read novels till sunrise. Slept again.. and then days just passed as fast as ever. Two weeks fatafat. Dint laze around much this time though. No complains!! Everything happened smoothly like 'THE' perfect visit to home-sweet-home. :)

College has begun. 8th term results were declared.Hey i´ve scored pretty well..Thanks to a number of 'things' (SssssHHHhhhhhh!!!) Hehehe!! I´m in the ultimate 9th term now. That reminds me i´ve got an orthopaedic lecture to attend in the morning at 8. Go to sleep Xorkes. Cant think of getting up in the afternoon now. But dont u get disappointed. Sunday hain na!! :) :)
