A pencil sketch by me

“Looks like a king! Who is he?” A college passed out guy asked me on seeing the pencil sketch by me.

What do you think that am I such a terrible artist that person’s portrait can’t be recognised or do you think that guy has a poor level of knowledge that he can’t recognise such a famous personality?

No Traffic jam day!

“On Tuesday, while going to Delhi and coming back home, I didn’t find any traffic jam on highway No. 8 and roads.” Mrs. ‘S’ told me.

“Lucky you who had No traffic jam day!” I replied.

Do you consider a day without traffic jam lucky day or just normal day?

Urself is Yourself

"Don't you know the spellings of 'Yourself'?" Saying this, a staff member of a reputed bank rejected my cheque addressed as 'Urself'.
"Yup .......but these days both spellings work." I tried to justify myself.
"Its wrong. You have to fill up another cheque with correct spellings."

Does shortening of spellings save our time or lead us to trouble?

Gifts from blogger friends

Mr. ‘O’ wrote to me
I have many blogger friends even met one or two bloggers in real life, received letters and excanged gifts.

I replied
I haven’t met any blogger friend in person except my cousin.

Have you ever received gifts or met blogger friends in person or no?

Goa, India

Mr. ‘M’ updated his profile on a social networking site as:

Current City : Goa, India

On social networking sites such a mistake is a pretty one which is to be ignored or it is a BIG mistake which is to be corrected immediately?

63mago

Thinking about 63mago, I picked up a tarot card. The card showed a woman who was sitting in between the piles and piles of books, reading, researching and writing.

A regular reader of my blog, 63mago who may forget to eat or drink but never forget to read my blog. I love her humor, her genius thoughts and her irony. I do not know much about her except that she resides in Germany.

Does regular reading of a particular blog draws an image of the blogger or is it just a platform to share information?

Watching porn movies

“You got late. What happened?” I asked the college girl.
“Oh! Last night, I was watching movies.” She replied.
“Which?”
“Porn movies!”
“I read on net that Chuck Traynor was husband, manager and pimp of Linda Lovelace, a famous American porn star of 70’s who forced her to pornography at the gun point. She was ripped like a rubber doll. She was frightened, humiliated and disgraced. She admitted that she felt like garbage!”
“Hmm…”
“In later years of their age, such porn stars faced numerous health problems physical as well as emotional. If you watch porn it means more persons will be dragged into this dirty business. Do u want to watch porn movies or no?"

A few words of appreciation

I appreciate the message convey in the last two paragraphs of the article. The data depicted here is surprisingly alarming which show that a huge sum of money is wasted on crackers during festival season. It not only creates noise and air pollution but also increases unfortunate incidences of blindness, losing some body parts or other injuries.

It is nice to hear that you haven’t spent hard earned precious money of yours on buying crackers from the last 23 years. Instead of that you love to give money to the needy especially those who want to be self reliant.

I wish we all celebrate festivals like this. :)

Should I leave this comment on Mr. ‘M’ ’s blog or no as he has already rejected my earlier comment on his blog?

Dirty romance

Location : Swimming pool
A guy filled his mouth with water and spew out on his girl friend’s face. She too filled her mouth with water to repeat the game. Two girls must be their known who were watching all this screamed, “Dirty fellows!” The girl spit out the water in the pool and not on his boy friend.

Do you think this is romantic or dirty?

Autumn season

I had almost forgotten that there was a season called autumn... :P
Mr. 'A' posted this picture and caption on the social networking site.

Ms. 'C' commented :
Autumn is a season to forget and spring is the season to remember forever. :) But unfortunately autumn is too long and spring is too short.

Mr. 'A' commented :
Autumn is the season of preparations, to get ready to face the challenges of winter season. Moreover one can't appreciate the beauty of a flower until one remember a bare plant or tree.

Do you agree with Mr. 'A' or Ms. 'C'?

No space in between!

Bravo Arun!Sonali
Sonali left this comment on Arun’s blog.

Do you think no space was left in between intentionally or hurriedly?

Love is...

While cleaning my cupboard, I stumbled upon an envelope, opened it and found some old newspaper’s cuttings. The colour of cuttings had faded and there are some strains here and there. It was a collection of ‘Love is …’ which I used to collect in my teens.

Do you think should I discard them as you can see in the photographs that the color of cuttings have changed from white to yellowish or should I keep the collection as it is interesting and a remembrance of my teenage stupid passions?

No beggar! No thief!

“I have travelled across the length and breadth of India and I havn't seen single individual who is a beggar or a thief. Such prosperity I have seen in my country, INDIA!” These are the words of Mr. ‘M’.

Do you agree or disagree with him?

Nadi Astrology Centre (Predictions)

Predicting my future, the astrologer of Nadi Astrology Centre said “Your ascendant is Sagittarius.”
“No.” I said.
“See here the number nine written on the bottom left corner which means that your ascendant is Sagittarius.”
“But….”
“Aren’t your Mercury and Venus in the zodiac sign Sagittarius?”
“Yes. They are. But….”
“Aren’t your Moon and Ketu in Aries, Jupiter in Taurus, Saturn in Cancer, Rahu in Libra?”
“Yes. But….”
“Aren’t your Sun and Mars in Scorpio?”
“Yes. But my ascendant is Scorpio and not Sagittarius. I know ASTROLOGY.” I said confidently.
The face expressions of astrologer changed. He took out the pen from his pocket and corrected his mistake with his initials on it.

What would be appropriate for him, paying the fees calmly or a slap for cheating me, not finding my leaf, not predicting through leaf but posing as these are all genuine leaf predictions and not only this but while predicting like an ordinary astrologer with date and time of my birth making a blunder mistake?

Nadi Astrology Centre (Leaf Search)

“It is written that Munni has a younger sister.” An astrologer translated the written material in Tamil for me. Many years back, sages wrote the future on bundles and bundles of leaves for the betterment of humanity. These sages predicted the characteristics, family history, as well as the careers of innumerable individuals contain in several thousand volumes, each containing around a hundred predictions on leaves. There are set of statements on a leaf if all are found to be correct and matched properly then your leaf is found. And then the predictions written on that leaf are translated by astrologers of Nadi Astrology Center.
“No. My name is Chandrika and I have a younger brother not sister.”
“So, this leave is not for you. We will search another.” He turned over the leaf and said, “The name is Chandrika who has a younger brother and is born in the month of February.”
“No. In the month of December.”
“Next leaf said that the person is born in the month of December on 23rd.”
“No. On 3rd December.”
Slowly and gradually he flipped through more leaves and gathered all information required to convince me that my leave was found. He also asked my date of birth and time of birth for doing predictions. Not only this he also asked me what I want in my life and what is my aim in life. I told him as I was very curious to know how sages have predicted the future on leaves for each one of us.

Will he surprise me by fraud methods of future predictions or will I surprise him with my innocent nature?

Stressful life and greying of hair

“These days, my life is so stressful that my hair have started greying.” A young woman told me.
“Now you can color your hair with purple dye.” I suggested.
“I don’t want to be a clown.”
“Purple color hair looks cool with purple color dress.”

Do you agree or disagree that the common reason of greying of hair is stressful life?

NaNoWriMo

“I am working on a novel.” I told Mr. ‘K’.
“There's also the NaNoRiMo thing they do annually...hear of it?”
“Never heard of it.”
“NaNoWriMo is National Novel Writing Month in which the writers from all over the world participate. They have to write 50,000 or more words novel in one month.” Mr. 'K' explained.

Last date of joining is 31st October. Should I join it or no?

Meditation means ….

“With closed eyes sitting for hours and hours doesn’t mean doing meditation. No, it is not meditation. Meditation means that you are totally involved in whatever you are doing. It may be cooking food, it may be servicing a poor or it may be doing your office work. Forget yourself in doing that task. And when you come out of it you have to erase the factor ‘I’ from it. You have to wipe out ‘I did that work’. This is what meditation means to be completely absorbed in work without thinking about the factor ‘I’.” A saint explained the meaning of meditation to an elderly woman.

Do you agree or disagree with the saint?

Loud and clear whisper

“We will be doing it tonight.” On watching a scene in which hero and heroine were enjoying French kiss; a boyfriend whispered to his girl friend. They were watching an English comedy movie in a hall.
I was sitting behind them and could clearly hear the plan.
“What did you say?” The girl friend asked him.

What do you think a whisper should be so loud and clear that it could be heard by everyone except the person for whom it was meant? ;-)

Alphabet dating

We have a box with the slips of all alphabet letters. While dating, I and my boyfriend do the activities starting with the picked up letter. Last weekend, the picked up letter was ‘C’.
Car racing
Preparation of Cake
Candle light dinner
We thoroughly enjoyed them.

This time the picked up letter is ‘X’ then what can be possible activities one can do?
Ms ‘D’ posted this somewhere on net.

Tweet me @chandrikashubh

“Chandrika, you never share your likes and dislikes with your readers.” Mrs. ‘F’ said.
“I will be sharing about my life on twitter.” I replied.

You can tweet me @chandrikashubh. Please share your address with me so that I can follow you. :)

Photographic humour

Photograph 1 : Cat was inspecting a parakeet inside the cage.
Photograph 2 : Cat was sleeping and parakeet was playing on cat’s head and the cage’s door was opened.
Photograph 3 : Cat was inside the cage, its door was closed and parakeet was enjoying outside the cage. :-D

I saw these photographs on a humour site and wanted to share with you all. :-D

Do you think this was reality or cat and parakeet were models who were directed to act?

Filling my life and blog with colors

“Chandrika, you always wear dresses in white, cream or dusky shades. There are bright and vibrant colors also. Try them. ” Mrs. ‘L’ suggested me.
“Hmmmm….”
“Fill your life with the colors and feel the difference.”
“First I will fill the colors in my blog.” I said.

So I filling my blog with colors. Hope you like the new look. :-)

No reply from past one and a half year

“You didn’t call, mail or send any sms to me even ONCE during the past one and a half year. I know you were busy in your career but at least you should have find time to reply my calls, mails and smss. I was worried about you and you didn’t bother about my feelings.” I complained to my friend.
“I bagged Outstanding Performance Award and that I do not want to tell you on phone, emal or sms. I want to tell you personally. When we meet….” My friend told me with a smile.

Should I give my friend a punch on face or a warm hug?

No one is born a Genius though becomes one by forgetting things

“ “I forgot my admit card.” I worriedly said to my uncle who was driving scooter on the busy road of Delhi. We were about to reach my examination centre for my higher secondary final exams. Instead of scolding, my uncle took a U turn towards house. This is 20 years old incidence but it is as fresh as it has happened just now.” Mr ‘M’ narrated me.

“No one is born a Genius though becomes one by forgetting things.” I told him. :-D

Have you ever forgotten such an important thing? ;-)

So cute! So active!

“So cute!” It was my mom’s friend reaction on seeing me first time. At that time I was a baby. I was in my mom’s lap and my mom was feeding me with tomato soup. She picked up the bowl to fill the spoon. Immediately, I kicked the bowl with my tiny foot with such a force that my mom lost her grip and the entire bowl liquid was on my mom’s friend’s cream silk sari.
“So active!” She changed her views about me.

Cute and active baby is one year old in the field of blogging.

The other side of the coin.

You presented only one side of the coin, Chandrika. That’s not fair.
I have an illegitimate sibling. My Dad wants to give an equal share to that f*** in MY GRAND PA’s property. That’s MY money and ONLY MINE. The guy in blue shirt mailed me.

Money can’t be yours until and unless it is in your name. So it’s pretty shallow of you to say so. I replied.

Do you think fighting the case against father is justified with this explanation?

Story of a guy in blue shirt

“Do you know him, the one in blue shirt?” Mrs. ‘T’ asked me pointing towards a young guy.
“Yaeh. He is a decent guy.” I replied.
“DECENT!?! He has filed a case against his father.” She disclosed the latest news to me.
“What??!??”
“The case is about ancestral property.”
“How could one fight over a few bucks with his father who gave him this body?” I said with a surprise.
“He is in a hurry and can’t wait till his father die.” She was enjoying the spicy conversation.
“He is neither handicap nor mentally retarded. He is intelligent and earning well. Moreover he is single. Then why he is fighting?” I was perplexed.
“With this fight, he has divided his house in two zones with no communication between them and I pity his mother as he is her ONLY SON.”

With this court case whom do you think the guy in blue shirt is hurting more, his father or his mother?

Daily drama

EVERYDAY,
i) he opens a new account in pseudo name on ‘XYZ’ site.
ii) he starts a new thread to vent out his emotions.
iii) he replies to comments on the same thread but writes only one more post i.e. Total posts : 2.
He is repeating this tedious job from the past 19 days.

May be he is scared that I may write about him on my blog therefore he changes his name, EVERYDAY. ;-)
