25 random blah blahs....

You know,you have reached the pits as a blogger...when you copy and paste attempted tags from Facebook onto your blog.Anyways,its the thought that matters.Don't we all cry about not resusing and recycling our resources.It's year ending (yes... we have this phenomenon,even at schools and words are truly a precious resource)
So here it goes...

25 random blah blahs about myself......

1.Whenever I have gone to visit a close friend or family member in the hospital,I have always fainted.(It’s quite embarrassing,cause more than the patient the doctors and hospital staff,start fussing over me.It’s heartening to know, it runs in the family,coz my brother too displays the same symptoms)

2.I am not afraid of lizards.You have to drop a lizard on me to prove me wrong…but then I challenge you to drop it !!!

3.I harbor a secret ambition of being a pilot.The closest I came to it was,when I was selected by Cathay Pacific,but instead, chose to get grounded as a WIFE.

4.I am extremely possessive about my friends.

5.I got married when I was 20.

6.I am an emotional patriotic fool.I have tears in my eyes everytime I sing the national anthem.

7.I am an exercise freak.Unless terminally ill,I can’t do without exercise.I believe it’s not the way you look but the way you feel ,that’s more important.(Dil ko shamjhanee ke liyee khayal acha hai galib)

8.I can never ever skip my meals.

9.I never wanted to be a teacher,but ended up being one.Now,I can't think of anything else I could have ever been.Moral of the story..never say I will never do this…..it may just come true)

10.I can drive as well as change tyres of both my car and kinetic Honda.This includes the front wheel of the Kinectic as well.(go ahead and try changing it,its not everybody’s cup of tea !!!!)

11.I love driving fast.My personal best was 110 km on the Vadodara Ahemdabad expressway.Unfortunately,Bangalore roads aren’t the best place for this.

12.I am a disaster when it comes to spelling.

13.I met Mohan at a wedding,ala typically filmi style.We met and parted and then met again.(the story would have been a happy ending had it not been for the last part.)

14.I can almost never pronounce the word QUEER.It’s just one of those things,that will get me kicked out of my job someday.

15.I love Delhi,But don’t see myself living in it in the near Future.

16.I have high expectations from people I love and often end up feeling hurt,when they crash.

17.I had vowed to write once a week on my blog.It changed to once a month,now its almost once in 3 months.I hope It doesn’t get worse.

18.I hate people with attitude.I have an uncanny ability to identify them from a mile.

19.I was a cry baby at school.

20.I love photography.

21.I hate sleeping late.

22.I dissect movies to the core.I am critical ,opiniated and chossy about the movies I see.

23.I find it difficult to say NO to people(except in school,when with my class)

24.I like to be left alone when I’m sick.

25.I love dancing.I learnt Kathak for 4 yrs as a kid.I want to start all over again.

rehna tu....

One of the most difficult things in life is to love someone....
second to love them unconditionally....
third love them for what they are , just as they are !!!!

Rehna Tu ......DElhi 6...lyrics by Prasoon Joshi




Rehna tu hai jaise tu
thoda sa dard tu thoda sukun
rehna tu hai jaisa tu
dheema dheema jhonka ya phir junu

thoda sa resham tu humdum thoda sa khurdara
kabhi to ad jaye ya lad jaye ya khushboo se bhara
tujhe badalna na chahoon ratti bhar bhi sanam
bina sajawat milawat na zyada na hi kum

tujhe chahooon jaisa hain tu
mujhe teri barish main bhigna hai ghul jana hai
tujhe chahoon saahey
mujhe teri lapat main jalna rakh ho jana hai

tu zakhm de gar
marham bhi aake tu lagaye
zakhm pe bhi mujhko pyar aaye
dariya o mere yaar
doobne de mujhey dariya

rehna tu hai jisa tu
thoda sa dard tu thoda sukun
rehna tu hai jaisa tu
dheema dheema jhonka ya phir junu

haath thaam chalna ho
toh dono ke dayein haath sang kaise
haath thaam chalna ho
toh dono ke dayein haath sang kaise


ek dayain aage hoga ek bayain hoga
thaam le haath ye thaam le
chalna hai sang thaam le

rehna tu hai jisa tu
thoda sa dard tu thoda sukun
rehna tu… hai jaisa tu
dheema dheema jhonka ya phir junu

thoda sa resham tu humdum thoda sa khurdara
kabhi to ad jaye ya lad jaye ya khushboo se bhara
tujhe badalna na chahoon ratti bhar bhi sanam
bina sajawat milawat na zyada na hi kum

tujhe chahooon jaisa hain tu
mujhe teri barish main bhigna hai ghul jana hai
tujhe chahoon saahey
mujhe teri lapat main jalane rakh ho jana hai

TO MA'AM WITH LOVE.....

Fed up with the cut,copy.... paste answers that my students wrote,I motivated them to be creative and write out answers in their own words.Little did I realize that their over- active little brains were actually mixing up instructions,that I gave them for the three different subjects that I teach them.
Sometimes, to motivate them and unblock their inhibitions,I ask them to write their essays without worrying about spellings or grammar.They follow that diligently in all subjects,including their exams and some proudly have even declared this to their parents.
(i had a tough time justifying my move to the authorities).
Likewise instructions, to be creative and think out of the box were applied to Science and social studies.

The nominations for the category.......MOST CREATIVE ANSWERS goes to.....

Livestock is ......

1.when animals are domesticated for our use and there is profit.



2.when domestic animals are overused for profit,they are called livestock.

(so much of truth here)

White revolution

........is the cultivation of cattle.


Pisciculture is

........actually bio gas,which is made from cow dung.



alternate source of energy is force.

(and this is going to be true in the near future)



Bi -product of petroleum is speed.

(profound indeed !!!! am sure this kid isn't from bangalore...coz the poor souls haven't had a chance to witness a phenomenon called speed at all)



fossil fuel is

...... when we use the remains of all dead and decomposed things.



blue revolution is......

motivating fisherman to produce more fish by themselves.



operation flood was .

......when a new breed that produced milk was introduced.
