The Paradox Of Life

Funny when you’r ready to say i love you
No ones listening
But when your not
Everybodys saying it
Expecting you to reply with those exact same words
The paradox of life
When you have plenty
You dont know which to choose
When you have none
You wish you had at least one
When you have everything
Everyone is around you
When you lose everything
The people around you lose themselves too
The paradox of life

New Age Entertainment!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TLLRo5895ZY&feature=sh_e_top&list=SL

Ok honestly, i have never ever never come across something so SO annoying and shocking as this one!

When i first bumped into this channel and was curious as to what on earth this 'Annoying Orange' meant, wondering if it could be a new video recipe for maybe a fruit drink?....boy was i stunned!!!

I stared at the video throughout it's entire 2-3 minutes in utter disbelief, thinking to myself...'Where on EARTH did they get the idea for this one?!' immediately followed by 'Is this our new age entertainment?'

After the first 3 shocked minutes...i was curious. I actually had managed a few giggles between the video to be honest, only because there was no one around me!!

I actually spent that night, watching all the videos of that channel! I had a stitch in my stomach and i'm not gonna lie about it!

I had started to like what started out to be an annoying, retarded video! And should i also add that, i religiously follow their episodes!

Yes, i am in complete shock about it too! Ive shared these links with my friends who begged me to stop harassing them with painful videos (although secretly, i know they enjoyed it!)

And then something dawned on me. What or who confines what type of entertainment is acceptable or not? Although there is the issue of morality, of course media like pornography, im afraid will never be acceptable. But, im talking about the 'other' types of media.

You would know what i'm talking about if you browse through you tube. There are millions of home made videos of people doing ridiculous things, and if you scroll a little below, you'd find mixed comments. Some utterly and bitterly abusing the poor entertainer and some not wanting to admit that he was funny, just mildly commenting that he should get a life.

My point is, go for whatever makes you happy. Don't worry about being accepted because you are a follower of some weird channel on you tube. Time is limited for us to be worrying about what others think of us! Nobody can confine happiness, let it be through retarded videos or strange behaviour, as long as you don't harm your fellow persons!

Truth And Nothing But The Truth

I just realized the hardest thing ever is admitting to the truth in your life to someone
There's the right selection of words, and the tone and the right kinda body language
If it's a non-physical conversation, then words are gonna play the most important part

Let it be admitting something to a person who may have been the person who hurt you the person
But seeing that person crumble under your words is painful beyond description

Although you may not see that person if you are having an online conversation
You could know that person well enough to imagine the exact expressions and mood they'd be in right now

Sometimes, change in ways of a person is all what it takes
Just going out there with the truth as openly as possible might just be the solution
But its so SO hard.......specially when there is no right way to do it
It has to be as raw and hard as it can get

But that would be life i guess, we might be gaining and losing at the same time
The beauty of life is it's balance
Where would we be, without this wonderful yet painful balance of nature?

A serving of trouble anyone?

Sometimes all it takes is a bit of risk and a massive serving of God.
But boy do i like heaped servings of risk too!
A trouble magnet…
A classic pick for the center stage of dramas..
But, the boldness of this self is undescribable
The heights, sights and sounds that these leap of faiths take me to
It’s a bittersweet experience
Sometimes, i wish i had more
And then sometimes, i wish for it to never come back to me
But they always do
Mostly, self brought-upon
But i have to admit
My life would be colourless without these little but risky twists that i take
And am i ever so glad to be that one who has to figure out escape routes all the time
But, it comes with all its fun-packed learning experience
Not a 1000 books would give!!

The sun ain't the only thing shining

Weird how people some people just pop into our lives. The kind of people thought never existed. The kind of people, you only thought that your imagination could conjure up.

But here he was....tapping my shoulder...showering me with compliments with a beautiful smile across his face, mesmerizing for a moment. Hearing his accent, body language, expressions. It was only a brief moment.

Thought it was gonna be one of 'those' things again. This time i wasn't gonna give in. Imma take my stand!! Clowned around the place, perking the curiosity of our passers. But that moment, i didn't see anyone else, other than us.



The night was a chilly one. He treated me like a princess who had set foot in one of the crowded, dusty roads.

Making me smile at every word he said, hanging onto every word i said. A man with chivalry, a quality that was distinct to his kind.

There was a bit of playfulness to his eyes. A bit of seriousness and a bit of affection. The kinda balance i thought never existed.

We danced on the streets all night long. The shiny rain droplets warm on our skin. Till the first ray of the sunshine shone on us. It was a night to remember. We still didn't' have a name for it. But realized only time will tell.

It was something i hadn't felt in months. Something that spelled out....'maybe it's time'

Rolling In The Deep

She looked up at the dark sky, lined in pink shades. The last evidence of the sun being there was now slowly disappearing. She breathed in the air sharply, feeling the cold wind rushing into her lungs. It was new air, new place, everything fresh and alien. She remembered never feeling this way, something she couldn't describe, other than a sharp excruciating pain in her heart zone. That face she will never see flashed through her mind like a slideshow on high speed.

Why were memories even present? they were nothing but trouble. She wished she was a superhero. The kind of ones that could turn back the hands of time and dwell in the distant past, now just a memory. The memories now starting to fade, but the remaining ones in detail. She missed breathing the sharp night wind with him. She looked at the tiny stars shining ever so bright. Was he seeing it too? Was he seeing the same star that she saw?

She felt her throat harden and eyes sting. She hated this feeling. Hated everything about this painful memories, wished she was a clean slate with nothing written on it. She wanted to see him just one last time. That face she loved so much, much more than herself.

But she knew better than that. It was only a wish. A wish like wanting to be a superhero, a wish like the belief that he would be seeing the same star. She was never going to see him. She wished again. She wished she had said a good-bye to him.

She heard a distant buzz. She looked around, blurry-eyed. She then realized it was coming from her coat pocket. This was the buzz of reality. The buzz that usually awakens her from her sleep in the past. She didn't want to wake up, but it was inevitable. She looked at the sky again. Knowing that somewhere, he was sharing this same wide expanse of sky with her. A half-smiling girl walked back into the warmth of her home.

Sun Fairies

She sat on the window seat looking at the rain bucket down outside her house. Ivy didn’t like this weather….it made her remind of things that she didn’t want to. She checked her wide screened Macintosh PC sitting right in the middle of her room. ‘Should she mail him?’ her thoughts seemed to be wrestling each other and she seemed caught in between. Funny how Ivy thought herself to be that of a separate entity from her thoughts. But at this time, only that conclusion seemed appropriate. She migrated from her position to the bed and laid down there staring at the roof. ‘Why me?’ was the only question that was in her mind now.


She decided to take a stroll in the woods that surrounded the back of her house. She stepped out in the pouring rain, catching a strong scent of green leaves and earth. Ivy walked through the thick shrubs and leaves that were strewn all across the forest floor. She kept walking, drenched from head to foot. But the chilly wind or the icy water lapping at her skin had no effect on Ivy. 

She came to a small lake hidden by low lying bushes. Ivy loved to come to this mysterious lake when she was younger, and watch the sun dance on the water. This lake always managed to calm rebellious thoughts or confusion when she watched it. She sat on it’s banks and today the water seemed disturbed by the icy cold pellets of water firing themselves into the water.


She sat there….the clocked ticked….5 minutes…10 minutes……..

Ivy sat up straight. Something swept past her! She looked around her eyes a bit blur and the vision hazy. She blinked several times in an attempt to take control of what was happening around her. The sun shone directly on her eyes and she shielded herself from the sun’s powerful rays. Again something seemed to sweep past her…her soft brown curls danced around. The breeze seemed to have woken her up. The lake glistened as she stared at it. It was working it’s magic….or should she say…it had already worked it’s magic. She stood up dusting dirt off her t-shirt and shorts. They were soiled from the rain and the sand. But it didn’t matter anymore to Ivy, she knew exactly what she should do.

She raced back to her room and started hammering away at her computer’s keypad. She looked up to see her work. Yes, it was perfect. She hit the send button and waited till the computer took it’s time to deliver the mail she had typed. It was about to change her life…….forever.
