Update 101

Soooooo I have good news. I have resigned from my temple of worship aka the hotel aka my work place. Also, I will really like to point out here that now I am in my notice period, I am currently typing this post from work at my desk. Apparently, few people have had an issue with what I have posted on my blog and how can I access it during work hours????????? Oh. My. God. This has apparently been never done by anyone. Ooh and also whatever I have written about my personal life has been told to everyone here at work without my knowledge. So shocked. Yes my my lovelies, you know who you are and you are welcome to point this out as well.

Ciao for now.

It's complicated

I honestly hate being like this. A sad, SAD person who has really forgotten how to laugh. So AS thinks he does not love me as I do and that leaves him feeling guilty which he is not ok with. No one will be ok with feeling guilty. But where did these feelings of inadequacy come from? I was in Kovalam with SG and all day we would just stare at the beach and the vast sea and just ask ourselves since when did our lives get so complicated? I don't know if I believe in karma but if karma really exists then where did I go wrong? Whom did I hurt so badly that I need to go through it? Anyway if it is karma then she is a bitch. If its not karma but just balance that has to be restored, then when did that point tip towards me? Why didn't I realize it? My friends tell me that this is just a phase. But I cant pin my hopes on to that one thread. What if it is not? What if he has decided we should never get back? Then? This is the 1st time I have realized how lonely I am. This was one boy I liked so much and for so long and this was one relationship I was so sure of. Today if anyone asks me if I am single or no I dont know whether to answer a 'yes' or 'its complicated'. At least now I understand what the phrase, 'its complicated' means.

Dear Universe,

Can I please see a sign that everything will be alright and wont be a bitch soon? Say in 24 hrs? Please?

Sincerely,

Meghalomaniac.

Life's a bitch and shit happens and the likes

Yup life sucks. AS and I broke up. It is horrible. The pain sucks, the loneliness sucks, the crying sucks, everything sucks. He thinks it is best we end it 'cuz he apparently does ...... you know whatever. I cant talk about it. I will start blubbering like a whale. I really wish my life was a 3 hr movie when it came to these situations so I could just skip to the end or even if I couldn't the hardest part would have been over in 3 hrs.

How awesome is online shopping?

Pretty awesome I have to say. Everything I MEAN everything is available online. Why do I need to go to a mall and jab and elbow my way around or be around pretentious people who wear sunglasses indoors because you know, 'my eyes are so puffy from last night, dahling' when I can get every damn thing on this planet, ON-FUCKING-LINE?!

Its not that I have never had any bad experiences. I have had tons of experiences. Experiences which will be told by me to my grandchildren on a cold night when they bother me with story time and I just want them to get out of my hair so they never come running to me again for stories. The kind of stories which will give them nightmares. The kind of stories which gave ME nightmares. *shudders*.

Anywho, in my tenure of searching for online sites (which I do everyday, mind you) I have come across some pretty awesome ones. I started off with Fashionandyou.com which was THE site which launched and told India about the benefits of online shopping. This was the time they had just launched and the only way you could access the site was when you became a member via an invite from another member and they got 1000 bucks credit which meant you could too which meant you had to coax your friends and colleagues and shamlessly open the site at 1100 hrs EVERYDAY cuz of the new sales and flaunt your new thigamajigs on their faces. Yeah I was and I am notorious for opening the sites at 1100 am.

I then discovered 99labels.com and quite honestly I wasn't impressed with it. It was very 'meh'. Thats when they decided to revamp their site and voila! I was instantly hooked. Then came the online grocery sites (I have never shopped from them quite honestly) and then I thought if this is what is happening to the world then I am sure that ALL my favourite stores outside of my environmental technical bubble will have the options of online shopping as well! Thats even better 'cuz I would have already seen the thingy there physically and its delivered right to my door step.

I am not sure if you have heard of Tappu ki Dukaan or Happily Unmarried or Hitplay but they are awesome online stores. I have never gotten a chance to visit the stores in person. Cuz who has the time in Bombay when a 20-min car ride takes ONE AND A HALF HOURS????????? Where is our God now, huh? (Take deep breaths) The thing with these sites is that because they are soooo conveniently located in the city itself it is usually sent over in less than 24 hrs. So the other day I ordered a wine rack from Tappu ki Dukaan at about 4 pm. I called them up and requested them to please see if they could get the delivery done by the next day. They said that they will try but can't promise. So I was all like 'Ok but please try and thanks a lot' (It is a court-marriage-ceremony's-yet-to-happen-but-you-are-not-single-anymore-so-here-is-a-wine-rack present for Mehta. I have not told you about her? I have to. Will dedicate a post to her). So I was at work minding my own business when the courier boy called me and told me that the parcel had come. Now knowing how much I shop online I do tend to forget the stuff I have ordered. So I went down and guess what I saw? No! The wine rack fools! I was so excited I almost cried. Also because it was so heavy. So I really wanted to thank them. This is my thanks to you for the awesome-sauce service.

So Its been a year and some 3 months since I got transferred to this hotel. This is how many orders I have made till now- 130 (not all the orders have just one item). This is the amount of money I have spent on these orders- INR I dont even want to think about it. anymore paise.

Yes yes online shopping is addictive.

Oh I haven't gone to the online stores in hours.

Feeling adventurous on a Monday

said no one EVER. I know I know. I know all my posts now a days begin with 'I know I know I am not too good with updating the blog' and pretty soon my posts will start with 'I know I know all my posts begin with I know I know all my posts begin with.....' you get the drift right? OMG this EXACTLY like inception. Its Blogception. I can die happy now. :) 

Please do forgive me for the above sentences 'cuz its a Monday night and though I DID feel adventurous it lasted for barely 2 seconds and it was gone. Gone like that piece of chocolate which was right in front of me. Seriously, where the hell did it go? Wait, as a well know meme of terminator says, 'I will be Bach'.

3 hours later of soul searching-

Nope. Nada. Nothing. I guess I ate it in depression of HOW BORING MY LIFE IS! Yes my lovelies. Please entertain me. There is nothing to write about. Except, ooh, guess what guess what guess what? I am going on a holiday with a female friend (lets call her SG) in the 1st week of April! I am soooo excited. So the minute we were planning our leave (she quit. Got into ISB u know. Clever bitch) I called up ALL my unmarried cousins and asked them if they were planning to get married anytime soon 'cuz I am TIRED of taking leaves for marriages and not even one of them is mine. So in those gazillion odd vacays I have taken I have never been able to throw a hissy fit or plan my honey moon, or take leave and go shopping for pretty things. Anywho, so we are going traveling bitches! For FOUR. FULL. FUCKING. DAYS! Yes, 4 days in a hotelier's life is equivalent to going on a world trip traveling at the speed of light, ok? Sheesh! I am sure all of you guys will be those annoying customers. I mean its like u r LITERALLY begging us to spit in your coffee. Whats the deal man?

So I CANNOT wait. AS and I had a big fight last week cuz u know how women PMS and cant understand anything logical and how men PMS and understand everything logical. We made up tho. Cuz we are awesome that way. Ooh one more thing. I went for my 2nd concert. For AVB. For the ASOT 600th episode. (AVB- Armin Van Burren). I grew up getting introduced to trance 'cuz of him. It was like my childhood hero is up there. (ASOT 600th episode- A State of Trance 600th episode). (I got groped and felt up when people were dying for beer. I mean seriously? Just cuz there was no room to elbow you trust me I hope you get kicked on your balls with someone wearing high heels and then u jump barefoot in a lego pit. That will teach you to touch women inappropriately. Asshole) Because its India there were 2 technical faults. I mean how can there not be. But who cares?????? Below are a couple of pics. Of the concert. Yes die in jealousy u lesser mortals who couldn't make it! Die!

And then AS and I made up-

I am going and crashing and I swear I will be more regular. I know all my posts end with me saying 'I swear I will be more regular'. Pretty soon they are gonna end with 'I know I end my posts with I know i always say I will be more regular...... etc (end of thinking capacity)' u get the drift right? OMG its like I am on a roll! Blogception all the way! Take that DiCaprio. 

Ok I will shut up.

Mayans were right

Ok fine. You were right. I am terrible at updating my blog. But to my defense I have had a busy couple of months ok? Sheesh! So AS's b'day came and it was brilliant 'cuz I threw a party for him in my new apt. It was a supposed to be a surprise party but noooo. Men are dumb and will never learn. His friends I mean. They just let it out with the way they were behaving. I was so upset that I cried at midnight on his b'day. But I gave him instructions to act all surprised and touched and all. That didn't happen either. But seeing the state of my new house, you could tell it was a brilliant partay! (sob) See the invite below-

Anywho, I then went to Dilli for my cousin's wedding (remember for whom I was practising dancing) and danced on a perfectly raunchy number. I will never see that dance video again. EVER. I definitely look like a green tree (the colour of my outfit) trying to wave my branches. I came back and then went again to Dilli end of December for my friend's wedding. I did catch a bad cold there. Between the 2 weddings, AS and I fought but made up and he gave me a GUESS wallet. I promise to fight with you everyday from now on! Sigh! 

But the point of this post is that I think that the world did end in December. Though not physically but definitely, morally. We lost our humanity and our regards towards a human life. I remember opening up the paper one day. 1 page spoke about the gangrape (I thought that it will be another case like 1000 others); 1 page spoke about the grand father raping is 9 yr old (NINE YEAR OLD YOU SICK FUCK!!!!!!!!) step grand daughter, another page spoke about the mass shooutout in the school. 1 page spoke about a man in China who injured 22 children with a knife (these are children you sick bastards). Then the consequent pages spoke about the dismal performance of India in cricket (you do realize there are other sports and other heroes on this planet). I was nearly crying with frustration when I slammed my door shut and went for work. 

A day later is when I realized the brutality of the rape and how the main accused is a fucking juvie and how he will escape. I will castrate him. But has the govt done anything in the previous years that they will do now? Of course not. They should be the ones getting raped and getting shot. I say release those damn terrorists who attacked the parliament and give them another go. Try try till you succeed eh? I am pretty sure I will be helping them perform the task.

But if you see, Mayans were right. For me along with a gazillion people on this planet, the world did end in December. December 2012 taught us some things which we will not forget in a hurry. It taught us that indeed united we stand. It taught us that people do suffer from loneliness and depression and it's just not some shit in movies. It taught us that you can be brave and fight for your life no matter how injured and breathe till the end. It taught us to not disregard a human life. It taught us that there are sick bastards on this planet and that they should be tortured till the world ends. It taught us and reinforced this thought that the people ruling our country suck balls.

(Epic movie, flu, London Olympics)- Awesome Stuff- Part 2

SO y'all read about the wedding? (Yeah I am writing about my life which happened nearly 10-12 months ago). BEFORE the wedding, my director called me and sat me down and asked me how will I like to get a promotion and move out? I was all like..... speechless. She prompted me once, twice and thrice. Then I said I am totally ok moving out of the city. I said I am going on leave so probably after that we could discuss it. After the wedding, I came back and realized I had been shortlisted for interview with my Director's boss for the new position in the sister hotel. I applied for it and got through (obviously not without a couple of nasty remarks from dir's boss. She is kind of mean that way. Women bosses! sigh!) So this meant moving away from AS which I totally hated. So NYE came and we partied like crazy with the rest of the sweaty people. (Having house parties from now on).

I had to join my new hotel on 9th of Jan. I was nervous with butterflies in my stomach. But I dont like talking about work here so I wont. Have more important things to discuss with you guys, you see. So a week later I messaged AS saying I am moving on and there is no point in waiting 'cuz he is never gonna get over that ex of his. He said its for the best. That literally broke my heart. Luckily it was a Friday and my parents weren't home over the weekend so I cried my eyes out. I even cried on seeing senti advertisements. sucks. Being the strong one that I am, I didn't message him AT ALL and vowed not to till he did. (Like any girl would) I went to work on Monday and we are allowed to use Skype. He came on Skype just to chat with me after 2 long years. Finally he met me on Friday and said he likes me and that that one week was probably the longest for him and if I will like to be his gf. I had played this scene over and over in my mind long before and I had decided  I would give him a hard time and say I will think about it but I didnt. I said yes immediately but obviously not before asking him if he was over that ex (will be referred to as 'it' from now on. I do NOT like her...it)

So we have been dating for like good 10 months and it has been brilliant with the occasional fights especially when I am PMS-ing (what is with guys and not understanding PMS?) Then came the epic movie of all times 'Dark Knight Rises' and I have never hooted so much before in my life for any movie or clapped for that matter. It was bloody brilliant. My cousin went for the 7 am show. ALONE. Dressed as the joker. I am surprised no newspaper got the wind of that. (My heart is with the Denver shooting victims)

Yeah I came down with the flu what with the non existent rains this time. But I ALWAYS get the flu. I don't know how. Then I ended up getting a viral (after I came back from Chandigarh after my cousin (who is younger than me which my mom doesn't let me forget) got engaged). But when I had the flu I did manage to see the London Olympics opening ceremony and Oh My God! Was it brilliant. Kudos to people of my land for making it till there.

I have finally moved into my new apt after 9 months of living with my cousin and my aunts ('cuz the commute from our house is sooooo long that I spend nearly a day traveling). My cousin is getting married and I have started dance practice for her sangeet and my family is pleasantly surprised with my 'talent' (is that what you kids are calling it these days?).

I have also realized Sunday evenings are way worse than Monday mornings. The look on everyone's face just registers doom as the sun starts setting. Right now is VERY EARLY Monday morning and I really think I should go sleep if I dont want to be late for my morning meeting. My stars haven't been really good these past couple of 10 days. More on that later (hopefully next week. No. Dont u DARE roll your eyes. I will write next week! Loser).

Gnight my lovelies and enjoy this festive season. Don't burn yourself or wear flammable clothes and prance around over lit candles. Have a fun week.
