death from laughter?!

I think I have found out how I am going to die. ( not when, yet)

Death from laughter is a reality - that's what the following links suggest.

list of unusual deaths

I have bouts of uncontrollable prolonged laughter.
It's awesome, it's infectious, it's ecstatic.
Didn't know it was dangerous!! :P

Strangeness is not odd, it's common.

Contradiction is universal, without it there can be no harmony. Just as there can be no happiness without sadness.

Time to change

Sachin's double ton

A shadow

A shadow of a glorious past
Getting paler by the day
And darker by the night
Marched on despite the nay

Looking for a body of strength
And a passage of hope
Back to the spirited mind
The shadow plodded on and on

A glimpse of safety and power
Shimmering with love and passion
Broke through the shadow’s darkness
At a time when there was no notion

Like a thirsty horse
To a long forgotten pond
It drank and drank and drank some more
Till its own self choked

The shimmer and glimpse were only just that
Something within snapped
It had found only another veil
Left to colour itself, the shadow trudged

She cannot understand a lot of things, including life.

Life seems to be too surreal to be true. She just has to pause a moment – pause everything around her.

Pause the flurry of smses and phone calls. Pause the incessant student activity in the college. Pause the lectures, sorrows, mirth, fun, laughter, love and the plethora of emotions. Pause people. Pause the moment.

And then, she has to soak it all in, all of it. Try and savour every bit of what she sees around her in that moment, and wonder why.

He brought a bunch of fresh flowers to her. They smelled beautiful and intoxicating almost.He knew it would make her heart swell with love and he would get that most desired hug from her.

He longed for it.

He rang the door bell and waited anxiously shifting his body weight. He enacted various smiles that would floor her completely while in the wait. He wanted his smile to be just as enticing as the flowers.

He heard the footsteps coming closer. His heart pounded faster and his eyes widened unable to bear the excitement.

She opened the door with a bunch of fresh flowers in her hand.

He blinked not knowing what to make of it – was it for him or was it for her?


*****

Dark street,
No lights,
Cold breeze,
Thoughts alight.

Only a moon,
No stars,
Solitary walk,
No scars.

Violent dogs,
People glee,
Strange you,
Observant me...

One of those really rare occassions where I compose three different type of posts in one day and in one shot.

IPL 3

(I should be in sports! What am I doing ? )

IPL's back!

I root for Chennai Super Kings and Mumbai Indians!

Why CSK - for obvious reasons.

Why MI - Sachuuuuuuuuuuuu

guys n gals

my girlfriend ( you know what i mean ) and me in the following conversation looong time back :

MF : i hope some of the guys from our class would join us for the hang out

me : why do you say that ?

MF : come on, let's face. it's a lot more fun to hang out with guys than with girls. i mean, i think by now we should be tired of hanging out with each other, right?
it's more fun to have conversations with opposite sex. we'll mostly have opposing view points. it'll be interesting to know their take on things, in general.

me : Hmmmm.....

MF : see, let's take some topic XYZ. don't you think talking about the topic XYZ with guys would be different from talking about the same topic with girls?

me : yeah, maybe different but not necessarily interesting, right?

MF : no di!!

Then, she went on to justify it with a lot more weird examples...

I still haven't seen any damning evidence to accept it.
