Love.. love it or hate it?

“Have you ever been in love? Horrible isn't it? It makes you so vulnerable. It opens your chest and it opens up your heart and it means that someone can get inside you and mess you up. You build up all these defenses, you build up a whole suit of armor, so that nothing can hurt you, then one stupid person, no different from any other stupid person, wanders into your stupid life...You give them a piece of you. They didn't ask for it. They did something dumb one day, like kiss you or smile at you, and then your life isn't your own anymore. Love takes hostages. It gets inside you. It eats you out and leaves you crying in the darkness, so simple a phrase like 'maybe we should be just friends' turns into a glass splinter working its way into your heart. It hurts. Not just in the imagination. Not just in the mind. It's a soul-hurt, a real gets-inside-you-and-rips-you-apart pain. I hate love.”

Awwww..... I just love this write-up. Now now, I don't actually hate love. I happen to love love very deeply. Its one of the best things that could happen to anyone. But I just love the description by the author. Its just so damn matter-of-factly TRUE !

A funny post...

A cartoon I found on the net...

Making the decision to have a child - it's momentous. It is to decide forever to have your heart go walking outside your body.

The perfect introduction

This happened quite a long while ago. I want to pen this down before I forget to give it a special mention. (It soooo deserves credit)

The other day I was to meet "S" at his college... so I was just waiting outside the building when he and a friend of his walked up.
He introduced her to me... and then he introduced me as," She is the one who will be my wife in a few years"
OOOOHHHH.... I was all smiles n smiles n more smiles...
He has never been the one to call me his girl friend, coz "You're just so much more than that!" he says. And calling someone your fiance/fiancee without actually being engaged.. well that's just kinda cheesy.
So I loved this innovative way of putting it across. It felt so nice, sweet, great, awesome, perfect!!!!
He's the cutest, sweetest thing ever!!! (and he knows that!)

Cuddles n more cuddles to u !! :) :) :) :)

Y I loveeee being a woman !

A cute book I picked up from Landmark while on a whimsical shopping spree. There was a sale... I had to buy something.. NO, I'm not an obssessive shopper !!!

Here are a few of my fav. excerpts from the book:

You and the children go first in the lifeboat. (you'll know wat they're talking about if u've seen the Titanic!)

Without women, where would the diet industry be??? (Ha Ha)

We can be 'Miss,' 'Ms.,' or 'Mrs.' They can only be Mr. (now how boring would that be )

Our underwear is sexier than their underwear !! (Oh YES !!!)

and finally....

Men just don't get it the way women do ! (Exactly my point !)

The Butterfly Effect 3 - Revelations

I am a fan of the first of this series. I saw it in college, about maybe 4 years back ! Wow.. it took me to figure it out at first. I thought the concept was brilliant, the acting by Ashton Kutcher was great and the story line was just awesome !! I hadn't seen something like this before.

Since the sequels were not made by the same guy and were not connected at all to the first one I dint know what to expect.

I skipped the second and went straight to the third, as that was available. It dint really impress me.

They have tried to take the jumping back concept and put a different story line to it but it doesnt work that well.

It was an 'ok' thriller. It did have me guessing as to who was the killer. I thought the main guy was but then it brought on a surprise.

The movie is kinda gory, not for the faint hearted, with all the chain saw murders n stuff !! Gross would be apt.

I'm now planning to watch the second one. I don't think it will be great too, but I just wanna do all in the series !! More about that in some time...

The Ugly Truth (not so ugly...)

I an a big fan of Katherine Heigl. I know many do not appreciate her much.. but since her Grey's Anatomy days (which happens to be my fav show) I have really liked her. Maybe its just the liking for her character, but i think she's cute, smart and can act well.

I was dying to watch this movie. I din't really like her previous movie "Knocked Up". The story line just dint appeal to me. I could find this flick anywhere even though it had been like 2 weeks since its release. Finally then I did stumble upon a good print (and then it lay on my HD for another 2 weeks before I saw it today!!! ya ya U always want wat you cant have, n once u've got it, it doesn't hold the same charm!! bullshit, I just dint have time!)

The movie is kinda predictable. Man helps woman get another guy n eventually ends up falling in love with her. Blah blah blah.

Gerard Butler is quite the hottie. He acts well and is quite suited for the role. Katherine does her job well. Overall.. a decent weekend flick to catch.

Surprisingly though, all that this guy talks about 'the ugly truth' actually doesn't hold true in our desi land. It may very be apt for the Yanks, but no no, we love our Indian men. The sweet, kind gentlemen that they are(most).

The Hangover... arghhhh !!!!!

Oh God !!!! Wats with all the HYPE????

I heard tons n tons about how great this movie is... how brilliantly funny.. an awesome comdey.. etc etc..

I just failed to find even an ounce of fun. I thought it was a total dumbass guy flick. I mean ly a guy could like the crass humor and the stupid jokes and the porn.

I simple could not even conjour up a laugh ! I find it hard to believe that my sister (who is a woman I look up to and respect) liked it! God.. the world is certainly beyond my understanding !

I did NOT like this movie. It was BAD ! Thats about it !

I do not appreciate bad jokes, low-intellect jokes, and an overflow of porn and naked women.. NO-NO !!

Is it just me? Am I getting old? I dont think so.. I hope there are still some sane minded people in the world !
