Interviews
Life isn't that bad for me presently except I don't have a job.The JOBLESS tag has being stuck to me. But other than that, life is really good. I am staying with my parents and obviously have good food and good lifestyle.I mean I feel good with all those good things around, good clothes, good food and wine. And a loving boy friend and my tv serials and yes my novels.They all have being good. But still somewhere I do feel empty and it will be only complete when I have a job.
Okay enough of my melodramatic life story, I have forgotten the initial topic "Interview". Yeah that brings me to the most recent interview I had attended for a teaching post. Oh yeah I hate teaching, its just something than doing nothing I thought. Mom got the form for me. And after reading it, I was like forget it, I am not going to get selected. There are 3 rounds and I am sure I won't cross the 1st round itself. But still for every ones sake, I filled in the form and submitted.1st round being THE APTITUDE test, I was very cool. After writing it, I was like I am doomed, why the hell in the first place did I think of it!! After few days, results came that I cleared it!! I couldn't believe it, I thought may be the lady luck is after all with me. And then the next round was CRM ( Class room management) test. I was very sure I wouldn't clear this, as I had to take classes with students and teachers present to monitor us.And we had to use all those teaching aids for the demo to secure more marks and prepare a report about it. And the report had to be hand written. And we had being given just one day to prepare for our lessons and other stuff. So here I was stuck with all the chart papers and paper cutting and sketch pens surrounding me. And I am lost between them. At one time I was writing the report,next moment I am cutting out shapes and next I am confused what I am going to teach and how would I go about it. And it became 4am in the morning by the time I wrapped up everything. Next day, full prepared and slightly nervous I gave the demo with all the students and teachers present. It all seemed okay except that I couldn't handle the 2nd grade boys who were trying to act very smart and naughty at the same time. Enough of the drama, after few days, results came and I cleared it. Finally hard work paid off and that feeling of lady luck is shinning felt good. Next I had to just go for one final PERSONAL INTERVIEW round. I hate that round too cos here they grill you as though your not worthy of a person to be living on this planet earth!! After that round, you start feeling as though your the most dumbass presesnt on this earth and you are better off doing a clerical job than trying to becoming something else!! Okay so being like a good candidate, I prepared myself for the questions that will usually one will ask, like "Tell me about yourself", "why do you want to do this job" or etc. So here I enter the room with a panel of teachers and principals waiting to grind me off were seated in their respective chairs. Totally 4 people were present.
Principal : What subjects would you prefer??
Moi : Either computers or maths.
Princi : Why does the stars twinkle??
Moi (pauses for a moment and then full confidently answers): Stars don't twinkle,they just appear to be twinkling as they are far off.
Princi : Is there some science behind it??
Moi (wondering what science) : silence so as to not embarrass any one!!
Princi : why do people wear light color clothes in summer and dark color clothes in winter??
Moi(fully confused with the question and still confidently answering): Since light color clothes absorb less heat, we wear them in summer and dark color clothes in winter as it absorbs heat from the sun and keeps us warm. (the princi wasn't very happy with my answers as it showed on his face).
Princi : you are not very good with the subjects!
Moi : I will try to do my best if given a chance
Okay that was just a part of my interview which seemed funny to me and the rest part I have omitted as they were not-very funny parts. And after coming home, I declared to every one that I am not going to be lucky this time and I won't clear it at all. And then the results came out after few days and it turned out this time my lady luck wasn't shinning at all!! So this teaching chapter is over and become a past. And decided that teaching was a bad idea after all.
Now you know why interviews are so dreadful, they give you hope at each stage and finally when you reach the cliff, they push you off from it. Thats the way of life I have learned. No point of feeling suicidal cos every one has a bad day and in my case it's being a bad year and a bad decision. And I try to look at the good things in my life and count my blessings that god has showered on me.
And I hope I haven't bored you all with such a long post.

Whats your favorite color ?
Friend : What’s your favorite color?
Moi : Hmmm Red, sometimes Black and sometimes blue also
I don’t know!!
Friend : You are always so confused but you know mine is Orange
Moi : why ?
Friend : Cos its bright and it looks lovely on me and all my dresses are of orange
color. And my favorite ice candy is orange color too.
Moi : And your favorite fruit must be orange too?
Well that’s a pointless discussion but I would like to know what’s your favorite color and why?
We see different shades of colors everyday
we feel them too sometimes
And some become a part of our life
But some days, it goes un-noticed too
And the day passes off just like a blur
And some days the shade is White
White, can I call it a color also?
Or white which makes me look like a ghost and rarely a fairy
Or the white, which is the sign of peace and tranquility
And some days the shade is Black
Black, the color of elegance, style and panache
But for some, black is not a color
It’s just an empty void.
And some days the shade is Red
Red, Bright and a beauty with style like a cherry
For some its the symbol of love
And for some the color of blood and loss
And some days, we don’t want to notice the shade
Shades, some colorful and some not so colorful
Whatever shade may be, we have the choice
We choose the color we want to paint our today and tomorrow.
And what if I say
Sometimes we don’t have a choice
Then what?
Colors will still remain the same
Only difference will be the perspective
And the same beautiful color
Will look ugly
So choose your colors wisely.

An Endless search
Caution : Below things are written in a very depressed state of mind, so don't go ahead if you cant handle it. ( Don't blame me in the end, if you didn't get head or tail of it.)
A search, which has no end, I feel. I read and read many books, watched TV, spoke to people around but deep inside really not interested. It’s just a mundane task being performed for keeping my mind diverted. Mind is also funny; it comes back to the same old question. When? Where? Will this search lead to!! This search has taken me to different places, cities and countries but still I am thirsty, and each time much more than before. Will my thirst be quenched in this decade?? How long before I move on like this like an aimless soul. Sometimes I don’t know what I am searching for. Sometimes I feel I have found it, but the same moment I feel I have lost more than I have got. Why is this feeling not ending?? Why is it haunting everywhere I go? I play and play till this body tires out. But the thirst doesn’t end here. This thirst makes me nauseated a times. Some days it even brinks me to the well but my sanity steps in and I stop myself. Is life only this search or there is more to it. I don’t have answers. If I had, I wouldn’t be writing this. Somewhere deep fear exists, it awakens every now and then. The fear that I have lost everything and the fear of loosing more keeps me in sanity. I don’t know what to accept and what not to accept. Only I know this search is endless and from here I see only darkness. But there is a hand, there is a face, which assures me every now and then that everything will be all right in due course of time. I have everything but still I feel empty. Very empty I mean, its just leaves me bloated with my thoughts, my sanity and deep down my fear. What is life I asked? And I got the answer, it is bringing smile on some one else. This life, which is to serve the almighty, a chance we may not get again, but we loose it all the more. Strange is life when I don’t get my kind of answers. Lost and bruised, will I be able to get up and even if I do get up, will this world let me live the way I dreamt of it?? Fear of not even being able to try leaves me all the more isolated and obsessed of my fear. Overcoming it will take few days or few months or I don’t know really. All I know this search is endless.

The Perfect Groom
Don't worry this is not another reality show coming up on Indian Television. Traditionally in our Indian community, our parents selects the groom for his daughter, even today. Now what do parents look in a guy as to be determined if he is the most suitable groom??
The primary qualities should be
- He should be a boy.( I mean to say, he should be straight and not gay).
- Next He should belong to the same caste as well as same religion.
- He should be earning very well.
- He should be highly qualified.
- He should belong to a very good family.
- Horoscopes should match.
- People who are Nri, mostly prefer Nri son-in-law.
The Secondary qualities are listed below:
- He should respect elders and promise to keep the daughter like a princess.
- He should not have any bad habits like Drinking or Smoking.
- He should have his own house.
- And in some case, if he has a sister, she should be already married off.
- He should be very good looking. (this is very rare, but sometimes it can be a priority)
I think I have listed almost the main points, rest you can add your own qualities in this list.
Now the issue is, if the gal is in love with a boy, parents are never able to accept it.I guess the parents feel their Right to select the best available groom in the market has being snatched away from them. Moreover,the boy doesn't have One of the primary qualities (those listed above) in him,even if he has the rest other qualities matching. What would you do in such a tricky situation? Don't tell me those filmy ideas of DDLJ, now a days parents are more smart. I know some would say that convince your parents about your happiness and damn the society, but does it really convince them ??? Some where deep down, the gals feels guilt for hurting the parents. Even I would say convincing is the only option available but in extreme cases, that doesn't work too, even if they love their daughter too much.
I am not blaming the parents, but atleast they can be accommodating. Some parents start their emotional attyachaar (I mean to say,start sobbing and making you feel guilty) and some resort to anger management. But how much can the parents guarantee that the marriage would be successful even if it was an arranged marriage with their so-called perfect groom?? Even love marriages has their pros and cons but at least its reasonable cos in the end it was your decision and you knew the other person perfectly before getting married. In life,nothing comes with a guarantee card, only we can try to work out the relation.
All said and done in this tension atmosphere, in the end, one of the party ( either the gal or the parents) gives up their stubbornness to make the other person happy.
Well everything has an ending, some happy and some forcedly happy.
I really need a feedback on this issue from every one, whoever reads it, what would you do in such a situation? will you cause the pain or bear the pain ?

This soul has become lazy
Yes you’re reading it right. You already knew that anway, I was lazy before but now Miss Insatiable Soul has gone tired of not getting what she wants in life, so she has started more becoming lazier day by day. She doesn’t even want to get up from her sleep, cos she has to go for bath daily, which is really a tiresome activity according to her. She doesn’t blog much cos she feels lazy to type down everything. She wants an automatic laptop which will detect her feelings and type it down and post it on blog without making any spelling mistakes.!! Hehehe .
She has being infact thinking about renaming the blog to “The lazy Soul”. And hopes that there are no other lazy souls like her who feel even more lazier to leave a comment on such a useless topicTuesday, November 17, 2009
I can't seem to write!!!

Hmmmm well I am writing the above title so that I will be able to publish this post before I change my mind again. I rarely visit my own blog. Seldom I think of writing a new post. But it just remains a thought in my small little memory. Past few days, I have had ten to fifteen topics to write about , during those sleepless nights. But next day, It all seems vague, which ultimately results in "no post"! I have had thousand reasons for not writing a post but now they all seem useless.I use to type the Title and then just loose the interest to write,it happened so many times, I don't know why.
I can't believe it!!! I have typed in so many sentences in a matter of 15minutes, may be the title has really helped me out. Or else I would be again lying around thinking why I haven't being able to publish a post!! Hope I haven't bored you with my silly ramblings, its just a phase which I need to move on.....
Life is special and we can mold it as we want.I use to believe that happiness lies in getting those big things which we really want like job,money and etc etc. But happiness is just above that, may be I can't explain it. Its just something I have felt these days. Happiness is just around the corner,one needs to just look around.

Marriages are made in Heaven
We all have heard the above title saying, though some believe it. I believe that god has made some one special for all of us, but we get married to them only or not is decided right here, on this earth. what say bloggers??I would like to know your opinion too.
And since the talk of marriages are going on, I am going to enjoy Rakhi's Swayamwar today in Ndtv Imagine,by sitting at home itself. Whatever every one has to say about her, I would say, it takes lots of sheer guts to go out in television and choose a husband for yourself. She is creating history. I respect her sheer courage and wish her good luck.
And yes I am still continuing my job hunt and getting depressed at home so can't bring myself to write something. So reading lot of books these days to occupy my empty mind. Take care and Happy friendship week for all.

Sigh of Relief
Its being more than two months since i last wrote a post. I have endless reasons for it, just got Internet at home last week, then there has being no "MOOD" to write (giggling), I seem to have forgotten how to write a post as well, but there are million interesting things to write about as I was missing from blog villa for a long time. And yes I haven't forgotten my promise of visiting your blog.I was busy with my cousin sis wedding and other functions in the house, then the job hunt is still on, then the trip to shirdi and lastly engrossed with my serials and coping with rainy weather of mumbai. Life has a come a long way, with new friends and relations to be kept up and those which are far off, missing old friends, specially "charmed one"- who is now happily married and settled, who use to mostly act as my content editor before posting a post in this blog. I will write a more meaningful post in another two weeks as I am really tired after writing this long post. I can take a sigh of relief that I was able to write this post in this gloomy weather and with my mood swings. Take care and god bless all of you.

answer
You should sing the HAPPY BIRTHDAY SONG!!
Its the worst PJ i have recieved it yet. Still there are many who can come up with more sillier PJ!!
Its election time in Mumbai and most of the other cities. I am getting bored sitting at home, already missing going to office. Its hard to leave something for which you have tried the most to get it. But hopefully i will get another one soon enough, so I am trying to be calm and cool for the time being and praying to the almighty.
Take care guys and gals. Will try to post something more sensible next time and I will surely visit everyone blog before my next post. Sorry for the delay.

Four liquid stages of life

And this puzzle is for those people who think they are very clever (Okay okay I know another forward which I received )
Imagine you have been tied hanging on a tree with a rope anchored on the ground, a candle is slowly burning the rope, and the lion is waiting for you to drop and be his lunch.
Your survival hinges on the rope staying intact, there is no one around to help you. The only possible way is to somehow convince the lion to BLOW the candle out. How do you do that?Think First!!
and scrap me the answers
I shall post the answer tomorrow, so no cheating!!!
Take care till then!!

Silly Stuff
Scoreboard flashed my name “Rhea I love you” in the cricket stadium. Then I can hear my name being called upon by the commentators. And then I hear Josh asking me to come down to the ground. And then the scoreboard goes with the message “Marry Me”, I want you to be mine forever.
Viola I was surprised and was very happy he chose this way to propose me. That also in the middle of 2000 spectators, and international cricket players waiting for their game to begin when Josh would be done with his proposing stuff!! Every one is looking for Rhea, commentators ask Rhea to walk towards the ground. I am little bit nervous with all this chaos and drama being unfolded over here. I walk towards the ground and I hear a loud roar of clapping and thunderous “OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOvvvvvvvv” sounds. And I hear few gals’ comments as I pass by them, she is so lucky and he is so romantic. And I run towards Josh without wasting any time.
He says “You know those three words, I have being saying it every day and night, to be precise from 365 days now. And I say again I love you and I want you to be mine forever”. Will you be mine?? Marry me and I shall make all your dreams come true!!
I didn’t know what to say, the whole atmosphere cheered, say yes!! say yes!! And I smiled and said yes to him and I hugged him. I can’t believe its happening with me, this use to happen in English movies, not in real life, and not in
Surprisingly I hear my cell ringing and I cant figure out where it is at the moment, I can feel it under my feet, I pull it up and pick the call and I hear Josh voice on the other end, and I look around myself with disbelief and there is no Josh next to me, nor I am in the stadium, I am in the bed. Oh gosh!! I have being dreaming. Meanwhile, I can hear Josh screaming on the phone asking me if I am alright, it took me a minute or so to come back to reality and gladly narrated it to Josh. Josh happily mentioned that morning dreams really do come true. I hope they do come true if they are so beautiful and lovely.

Random ramblings, Tidbits, elections and Untold Stories
Knock Knock!! Where are you gone?? Anybody in house?? Missing from a long time!!
My reply: Yeah I am here and was hibernating in this summer, waiting for the prince charming to arrive. Couldn’t help, I seriously couldn’t write anything in such a long time. Call it the "laziness" or “love is in the air” factor, that everything else seemed less important. ( Giggling with guilt ).
So elections are coming up and it looks like, everyone is playing dirty this time. Every one is either hurling accusation at each other or self-praising themselves or their own so-called party. But the biggest surprise was from Mulayam Singhs Samajwadi Party’s manifesto, which stated, “No English and No Computers”!! Watching the news, I was laughing so hard, that some people around thought I am watching a laughter show or something. Common isn’t it funny? How can you have such a manifesto?? But after all we are in
Enough about politics of our country, we will know soon enough, who is going to lead our country in the coming months, so guys and gals, who have the power of voting, please go ahead and vote as every single vote counts, and it does make a difference. Visit each parties manifesto and choose the right leader, its all upto us now.
By the ways, I forgot to inform you all, the untold stories met with a new twist recently, yeah yeah, it has become like one Ekta Kapoor serial. Sneha realized how egoistic she had being and begged naveen for forgiveness. Naveen being the good sweet boy has readily accepted her and they are singing songs “kitni mohabbat hai….kitani mohabbat hai…..” Now Sneha is waiting for a perfect opportunity to talk with her parents about Naveen, so that they can fulfill their dreams together. Will let you know soon, if their parents agreed or not!!! So for time being, please pray for them. But one thing is for sure, like SRK dialogues:
“Agar kisi cheez ko dil se chaaho
to poori kaynath use tumse milane ki koshish main lag jaati hai.
Hamare filmon ki tarah
hamari zindagi mein bhi
end tak sab kuch theek hi ho jata hai
aur agar theek na ho, to woh The End nahin.”
See how Naveen's wish came true. So friends, picture abhi bakhi hai. Wish for something you have always wanted, and guess what, sometimes the wish does really come true. And guys I shall drop in every ones blog soon. And by the ways, I am quitting from here and moving to Mumbai. I know its recession time and all that, but seriously I need to move. I am taking a risk. If we really want something in life, we need to take a risk. So wish me good luck!!

tHE Untold Story - Part V
Following is a page from Sneha's diary. I know the story has ended, but I needed to present perspective of both the side,then you can decide ultimately! We all have love stories, but its upto each of us to complete it or let it be incomplete.
Scribblings from Sneha's Diary
I feel guilty hurting him, though I love him, I can’t accept him. I don't know how to explain this, call it my ego or selfishness. But I always needed a man who is as qualified as me. He is not even a graduate.
Now I have stopped talking to him. Every two hours, I glance at my cell, hoping to see a message or call from him. I think it’s good this way, No messages, No calls. Just a brief silence, as though the moment is hung.The problem is, he is very nice and adorable, every gals "dream guy" I would say.In fact he even agreed not to keep in contact, after I stated my reasons for not accepting him. Deep down somewhere, he hopes that I will come back to him. When we parted ways, both cried because the pain is caused by me and not any one else. I am guilty. Sorry seems to be a small word but I hope it can reduce the pain I have caused him. Initially he resisted, but I convinced him that tomorrow will be more painful because of my ego.

I can't seem to understand how he loves a gal like me who is so ego-centric?? Strange are the ways of love or I should say, love is complicated subject, the more you dwell on it, the more you seem to be lost. There is no right or wrong here, it’s only what you feel counts.
I am confused because I don't want to hurt him tomorrow. What if tomorrow after marriage, I introduce him to my friends saying he is a graduate when he is not?? wouldn't it hurt him?? It would be very unfair to him. The whole thing will shatter down.So I ended it!! so that he won’t be more hurt by my selfishness!!
He says he won’t hate me for what I did to him. Because I have being always special to him and will remain the same always. At least if he hated me, it would be much easier for both of us. I wish things were different. Forgive me Naveen.

tHE Untold Story - Part IV
On request of my friends and bloggers, I am posting the part four of Untold series.I am not quite sure, how long these is going to be continued. So for time being, here is the fourth part.Those who haven't read, here is the first, second and third part.
tHE Untold Story - Part IV
Sneha greeted me when I came home. She seemed to have gained lot of weight and looked even more cuter. I never thought she would speak to me. But here she was, joking on my weight and color. I was quite happy.
Gradually we spoke a lot but this time not on phone; it was face to face, as I had always dreamed of. Sometimes she used to speak non-stop and I use to be lost in seeing her cute face. My days began with her and ended with her.
I asked her out, she readily agreed. Some times for lunch, sometimes for movie, shopping or would just end up in beach. She complained non-stop about her complexion becoming dark in the beach. It was heartwarming to see her beside me. I was content with my life. I couldn’t ask god for more. I loved her more than ever.Eventually it turned out, that she loved me too but she had some problem in accepting me. She mentioned the reason. I understood her problem but who will make my heart understand?? It’s difficult to let it go but she begged me to understand, so I tried to let it go. The pain was inexpressible. Initially I couldn’t control my feelings and I would end up messaging her or calling her. But this time, she replied harshly.

I was numb by what she said, initially it hurt but I understood her reasons. I don't hate her; I don't think I can ever hate her. She is special for me. I love her and for her sake, I had to let her go.
She says that it’s the best for both of us. I could never deny her anything. I am left with memories, so I will cherish the moments which I have shared with her. I am back to my work place.I can only pray that she comes back to me.I miss her.
Love
Naveen
P/S : Last part would be from Sneha.
