Lots of things have happened during the last 2 weeks.. some great things and some not so great things. It also made me realize that i've some great friends!So at the end of it i'm happy;)
I bot my mom a saree yesterday. its the first one i got her with my own money. So i was feeling very good abt myself. I went home n asked her to guess wat it was. She was not able to so i showed it to her. She was so... happy and touched. She loved the colour( thank u "S") and kept askin me why i got it. I really felt like saying- "Because u mean a lot to me", but was not able to.. At the end i jus mumbled somethin like-" hmm i saw it and blah blah.." It made me think that i say i love u and u mean a lot to me stuff often to my friends and my bf. But was not able to say it to my mom. I actually felt embarrased saying it. Dont know why?

I jus wish i could tell her some day!

Wow., thats really sweet. I swear., it is so dumb that it feels a bit hard to just tell your parents that you 'love them'.

Hmm., but I guess they'll know when we do somethings like this :)

Great gesture!! Kudos to you!!

Well I have never told anyone that I love them or like "you mean a lot to me" types. I feel awkward to tell that to some one. :)

that was super nice, my mom just loves every single bday gift i get her, she proudly displays it the whole day while others get shelved :), well, i guess you tell them that and it probably would go to their heads, and when you yell at them, they would probably ignore it and say "you dont mean that, i know otherwise!!" can frustrate you know!!hehe

Hmm..sounds familiar to a predicament faced here, wrote this sometime back here it is http://leftrightandcentre.blogspot.com/2006/06/two-sketches.html. This is not to trumpet this post but to say that I know exactly what you are talking about, infact its easier with mum but its a hundred times more difficult with dad. No idea why!!!

Dear Dow Chemicals, You have yet to compensate the victims of the Bhopal Gas Tragedy. You have a moral and financial obligation towards the victims and their descendants. How the hell are you are sponsoring the London Olympics? And just because the original plant was bought over by another entity does not entitle the new entity to go scot free. Dear Indian Government, Why is that you are ready to take steps against a person/ entity/ group only when the whole world creates a hue and cry? Lakhs of Indians are still physically and mentally affected by the exposure to the gas leak on that fateful night of December 1984. Your own citizens. Today is the 26th of January, our Republic Day. But I feel no pride. The real pride lies when the Government and its people work towards the safety and welfare of its citizens. Dear Anderson, Still alive and kicking, really?

What is this thing about men and sports? Why do they get all possessive about their love for sports? And finally why do they have such a big problem if women show some interest in any game? Two weeks ago I was at the eye doctor’s clinic in the evening. This was a time when people still believed that India could make it to the Super Eight. Bangladesh was playing against Sri Lanka that day. Since there was no television at the doctor’s clinic, I called up this guy friend of mine and asked him the score. This is how the conversation went- Me- hey wats the score? He- wat score? Me- today’s cricket match score, u fool He- India is not playing today Me- I know, I’m askin about the Bangladesh n Sri lanka match He- Wat? Y? Is there someone next to you and you are just showing off? ??????? Probably not all guys are like this but most of them are. Do they think its only a man’s territory? Do we get irritated when a man gets a facial? I jus don understand men!
