il blesse

Dedicating this song to all navré people; je suis navré aussi.

Tanhaai - Dil Chahta Hai

Tanhaai, Tanhaai
Dil Ke Raaste Mein Kaisi Thokar Maine Khaayi
Toote Khwaab Saare, Ek Maayusi Hai Chhaayi
Har Khushi So Gayi, Zindagi Kho Gayi
Tumko Jo Pyaar Kiya Maine To Sazaa Main Paayi
Tanhaai, Tanhaai, Milo Hai Phaili Hui Tanhaai

Khwaab Mein Dekha Tha Ek Aanchal
Maine Apne Haathon Mein
Ab Toote Sapnon Ke Shishe Chubte Hai In Aankhon Mein

Kal Koi Tha Yahin, Ab Koi Bhi Nahin
Banke Naagin Jaise Hai Saanson Mein Laheraayi
Tanhaai, Tanhaai, Palkon Pe Kitne Aansu Hai Laayi

Kyoon Aisi Umeed Ki Maine Jo Aise Naakaam Hui
Door Banaayi Thi Manzil To Raste Mein Hi Shaam Hui
Ab Kahan Jaaoon Main, Kisko Samjhaaoon Main
Kya Maine Chaaha Tha Aur Kyoon Kismat Mein Aayi

Tanhaai, Tanhaai
Jaise Andhero Ki Ho Gehraayi

Dil Ke Raaste Mein Kaisi Thokar Maine Khaayi
Toote Khwaab Saare, Ek Maayusi Hai Chhaayi
Har Khushi So Gayi, Zindagi Kho Gayi
Tumko Jo Pyaar Kiya Maine To Sazaa Main Paayi

Tanhaai, Tanhaai, Milo Hai Phaili Hui Tanhaai
Tanhaai, Tanhaai, Tanhaai, Tanhaai

Automobiles

Hey everyone,

I am of a 'driving' age now, and i still don't have a driving license. I will get one, it's just a matter of time. Till then, i will have to try driving other people's car, and thrill myself.

My aunty, she's almost like my mom, she bought a new car; Toyota Rush - WRE 9956. (i think i might need to start putting © and ® signs whenever i deal with such words.) Anyway, it's silver in color, it's 1500CC. (If i have any errors, please correct me!) And it's simply beautiful.

It's a 7 seater, it's a little tight at the back, but even then, about 8 people can fit in it, especially, since Banta Singh's descendents are all big people, and everywhere we go, we usually go together. This car will prove to be useful.

The other day, we went to PJ, my aunty's house to eat, and my 'mommy' brought them around in the Rush, his name is Veer by the way. So, my mommy is driving the car, my aunty is in front, Kiran, Balveen and Gorii are next, and right at the back are Soonee, Tanjit and me.

8 women in the car, that's fine, except that the back people have to shout to get their voice across. Haha, the music was blasting, we're all dancing to dil dance maare. We are all singing loudly, and talking loudly, haha, it was really fun.

And for once, haha, even if Soonee, Gorii, and i sit together, our thighs are not touching each other! My mommy said after driving this car, when she drives her Proton Wira, she feels as if she is driving a toy car. And if she's driving Veer alone, it's soo quiet.


I have driven her Wira before, but with Mommy as your driving instructor, she's very protective, Soonee is very liberal though, she pretty much just lets you do whatever you want. I have driven Balveen's Myvi also, and that's also nice to drive. But the best is shhhhh, my uncle's Nissan Sentra, he doesn't know i drove his car, he will kill me if he found out. That day, at 9 in the morning, we went to buy breakfast, and i asked Soonee if i could drive. Haha, so off we went. That car is just sooo powerful, so fun to drive, and i drove pretty smoothly. Claps are in order for me.

Gotta grab the opportunity to drive that car whenever i am there. I haven't drove Veer before though, i am a little scared to drive it.
In my opinion, i think my uncle and aunty's driving is very comfortable, it's at a comfortable speed, and it's not jerky, and the most important thing is, i feel safe in their cars. They are very confident drivers.


Manveera is one hell of a fast driver. Whoa, we were like holding on to our seats when he was driving, but the guy is damn confident when he drives. I haven't seen Jaishval SP drive, i don't even want to, heard alot of bad reviews, haha. Even Balveen drives coolly. Soonee likes to speed alot as well, and doesn't really slow down when there are bumpers. But after a while, you begin to trust them.

Rani also drives like a mad woman, i think it runs in the family. Haha. Jiv too, and his car is small, it isn't exactly a pleasant experience the first time, but after a while, you get used to it, his is a Volkswagen. The third or fourth time, you sit in his car, you realise, not bad, it's actually pretty cozy. Then you too, learn to trust him driving the car, and it's fun to go on long drives with him.


Till then, i'll dream of Dodge Vipers, Ferraris, Lamborghinis and Porsches, and to be realistic, of that Nissan Sentra.

Much love xxx,

.Zephyr

Short Excerpt

This is a short excerpt from King of Bollywood Shah Rukh Khan and the seductive world of Indian Cinema by Anupama Chopra. This bit is just moving.

It also didn't stop him from nurturing the impossible dream : eternal stardom. Shahrukh said: "My grandmother used to tell me, 'Zyada photo mat keecho. Har photo ke saath three seconds life ke kam ho jatein hain.' I want so many cameras takng pictures of me at the same time that i only live for a moment. The cameras go khachak! And somebody asks, 'What happened?' And they say, 'He got photographed to death. He got shot.' I think that would be the nicest way to go."

Things i look for in a guy ;)

Things i look for in a guy: ;)

1.) Hair - must be soft. I like to play with people's hair, so if it's oily and greasy (eww!), do something about it. Change your shampoos, and start using conditioners. And please do not dye your manes pink or white, or completely blue and green - it's a turn-off. And leave it as it is, try not to gel and spike it up. Short and long are fine as well. Haha, if your bald, and your cute, i might just consider. ;)

2.) Ears - i just hope they're the right size, not as huge as HRH Prince Charles'. Try your best not to get your lobes pierced, earrings rarely look nice on boys.

3.) Eyes - haha, the more weird the color, the better! Tom, where are you? I miss your green smouldering eyes! Narinder, you too, have beautiful brown eyes to look into. I hope your son grows up to look like you. Spectacles or contact lens doesn't matter.

4.) Eyebrows - if you have thick eyebrows, you might wanna do something about them, but some people just have thick eyebrows since they're young, yeah, manveera, you! I recognized you in your baby pictures just by your eyebrows! Haha.

5.) Nose - The sharper the better, nothing too flat, and please no bulbous noses, and not too big either, i will just end up staring at your nose the entire time. I am really sorry, Arvin, i just have to stare at your nose, you have huge caves. Haha, i am really sorry about that.

6.) Lips - haha, the more kissable the better, any weird shape or whatever is fine, i don't have any expectations of lip sizes or colors or whatever. But make sure, they're not dry! Can't stand dry lips, and especially if the skin is peeling. Use balms, people, lip balms!!!

7.) Face - overall pleasant looking, a nice clean face would be nice - i would love to hold your face in my palms. Try to make it as soft as possible, as little blemishes, pimples, huge pores as possible, oh yeah, and not oily. Come on, all you need is a good facial soap.

8.) Facial hair - okay, this one is important, so listen up. If you look nice and clean, when completely shaven, good. I like guys with a little stubble, but not everyone looks good in stubble, but if you do look extremely sexy in stubble, (i don't know why but i just like the dirty look) keep that, plus points for you. Goatees are fine, no sideburns though. Goatees and spectacles go along very well, eye-catching, if you know what i mean. Temple-walla, kithey ah tu?

9.) Piercings - Only 1 piercing is allowed, above the eyebrow, and you have to look hot in it, none elsewhere!

10.) Tattoos - Small ones are okay, but nothing huge and covers more than a third of your body. And please, you wannabe people, forever with the common skulls and dragons, and goodness know what-else. Hmph.

11.) Clothes - Wear proper nice clothes. The pants and slippers combination are a big NO-NO! Long-sleeved shirts, jeans, pants are good. Dress like how Sam does. He looks really smart, oh yeah, please, no baggy jeans, and no hip-hop style. That's crap, wannabe hip-hop people, get a life. It's not cool, it's dumb.

12.) Perfumes - Anything that's manly i guess, nothing too overpowering though, sometimes i actually have to gasp for air. If i start going blue, because i have stopped breathing, just take 15 steps away, i'll be fine after that.

13.) Physique - Hmmm.... Skinny is way-out, abit overweight is fine, athletic and fit, even better! Yum! I can practically undress you with my eyes. Haha, and you can't be shorter than me. Tall is good. Actually, it doesn't even matter, everything can be adjusted on the bed.

14.) Alcohol - No alcoholics. Drinking in occasions is alright.

15.) Smoking - No smokers as well.

And as for your personality, that i would decide, simplicity, and the small things that you do for people attract me, just be yourself... and don't move too fast, that scares me, take things one at a time. Be sincere and honest.

Are there people who even fit this criteria? I might be asking for too much. That's okay, i know, Tom, you fit in perfectly. Where are you?!?!? I'll be looking out for you in KL Sentral... Haha.

Many kisses,
.Zephyr

NZ - memories

Hi guys,

A very good afternoon to you, yeah, i am a late riser. Anyway, i was in bed last night thinking... what i should write about besides what happened in the day. And i want to tell you what happened in New Zealand - NZ.

It was my cousin brother's wedding 3 years ago, in february i think. His name is Raj and his wife's name is Jude. So off we went, including priti. Yeap, that's the first time i went on a holiday with a friend! Cool na? In the plane, we sat together... and i really don't know how we fell asleep, it was so uncomfortable, my legs were tucked under her, and hers over mine, but we managed. Haha, and the flight attendent was going around serving wine, since my dad was sitting pretty far away, we took a glass, that would have gone smoothly except that my lips were extremely dry, and the alcohol stung them. So priti gladly drank it. Your skin just gets so dry in the plane, people, you should bring a really good moisturiser with you on the plane.

I didn't tell you about the time difference, there's a 5 hour difference. So, since it's 1.30 pm now, it's 6.30pm there. I got up around 3am or so... opened the window shutter, and was mesmerized by the sky. It was absolutely beautiful, we were above the clouds, and all we could see were different colors of the sky, from red to orange to yellow, and then blue and purple.

Yeah, and what comes later on is very embarassing, haha, see, when the plane's wings cut through the clouds, there's a whoop sound, and no matter how much i tried to make priti hear it, she couldn't. Sigh, i became a laughing stock! Argh, there is that sound, i am telling you!


Anyway, we got down in Auckland, were in transit there for like an hour, before we catch the next plane to Christchurch. Away we went...
Reached their house, its a big house, with 3 rooms, with big yard at the back, with a small garage, and the house is 100 years old.

Raj, i think is the nicest cousin brother i ever have, and will ever have, he loves me to bits! He completely adores me, and sometimes i think it's very weird.
Jude is nice as well, she's a little temperamental, but nice overall i guess.


The problem with us was that we kept wearing wrong outfits! We went to the beach, and wore corduroy pants! Can you imagine how freaking hot that was? Hmph, and we lost our chance to see the dolphins as well. We went out to dinner, and i was in my shorts, do you have any idea how cold it was? It was like hell froze over.

Chocolates there are really cheap though. Haha, since priti and i shared a bed in the room, if we were hungry, we would sneak off to the fridge to get it, and eat it in bed. Guess what? The house floor is made of wood. So everytime you walk, the wood creaks under your weight, and especially at night, when it's really quiet, the whole house can hear you walking! And you are trying your best, not to put so much weight on the floor, too bad, it doesn't work, even the slighest movement, and the wood creaks. Yeah, and the next morning, you get asked, what were you doing in the middle of the night? Haha.


Raj has a convertible, it's pretty old, and it's red, and it's beautiful. Wow, now that's the kind of car you would want. When we were off to the beach in the car, with the roof down, the wind is just amazing! I felt like i could just let my hair loose, stand up and sing! Haha, but no, we were holding on to our caps tightly just in case they flew away. The only hindi cd Raj has is monsoon wedding. That's pathetic, so the interesting song in the cd is, aaj mausam bada beimaan hai, so i was just singing that, and he purposely switched it off, i didn't realise that though, and when i stopped singing, he asked me why i had stopped and that i should continue. Idiot!


We were making curry puffs once, haha, now this one is a riot! Priti and i secretly put in salted peanuts into some of the curry puffs, and haha, and we wanted Raj, my uncle, and his wife to eat them, haha. We had a picnic, Raj was the main target though, he did eat them, and guess what? He enjoyed them. I am telling ya, this guy loves me to bits!!!


I don't know why but the 3 of us really turned into pigs, even though we had huge dinners, we would still order pizza almost every other night, and we will be watching Simpsons. This is where my interest for Simpsons started. Haha, it was 2 am there, we wanted to dispose the box outside into the rubbish bin. My brother, we nicknamed him polar bear, and blondie. So Polar Bear had dreams of werewolves earlier, and we insisted since he was a boy and older, he should go and throw it, it's pretty far, and it's pitch black. He said no, he's scared, we weren't scared, but he was making us scared by telling us his werewolf dreams. Argh! So off the 3 of us went, with Polar Bear constantly looking around, can you believe it? He ran back, so did we! Haha.


Tej Kaur was also there later on, haha, there was one night, we just couldnt sleep, it was sooo scary, there was a table outside leaning against the window, and it kept banging it, making creepy noises, we just couldn't sleep, we did the impossible. We took our pillows and slept with Tej Kaur, and Polar Bear, in the hall! 5 of us crammed up. Tej Kaur slept well, Polar Bear (he's hair was blonde, and he was huge, he looks like one!) slept very well, i didn't sleep well because Polar Bear snored happily, and Priti had no sleep, because being the thinnest, she was pushed to the corner, at the door.



Manish, Hira, and Ricky. Manish was Priti's tall with huge eyes, Hira was mine, cute shorty, and again Ricky was yours, but you were too shy to sit beside him. The 3 men we entertained ourselves with. Haha, the barbeque was really fun, we talked with some really nice friendly people, Manish kept commenting how thin Priti and i was, yeah right, i was fat as anything then! So Manish must be only telling that to Priti. I had fun barbequeing with Raj, Polar Bear spoilt my mood.


We even went to milford sound, Te anau, and one other place, i forgot the name. Bad memories, so i shan't go there. Polar Bear - bad bad!


There was also once, we ate nando's, i think this one is the best and funniest events! Just the 4 for us, Raj, me, Priti, and Polar Bear. Raj and Priti beside me, and Polar Bear on Priti's right side. So we were eating, and it's pin-drop silence, because we are very shy with each other. So Raj kept looking at me, expecting me to talk, so did Priti. And no one was talking, all were looking down at their plates. So i developed a master-plan in my head, to finish the food fast, and go sit in the living room, i literally started stuffing food into my mouth. Priti was shocked, why i am eating lightning fast, and finally, she got it! She too, started eating really fast, it was really uncomfortable and uneasy sitting down there, eating, and no one muttered a single word. Haha, anyway, i was about to finish, saved by the phone, i answered it, it was Jude, so by the time Raj came back to the table, Priti and i were done! So just Polar Bear and Raj were left at the table.


The wedding was fun, Polar Bear, Priti, Ricky and i tried duck for the first time, it's nice. We had creme brulee, salmon, yum! We danced, everyone did the macarena together! We did bhangra as well, brrruah! We talked to Ricky, and that Rachel - i really don't know what's her problem. We even teared when they were saying their vows. Haha, we swtiched the namecards on the table, so we could sit together, and what trouble we almost got into, doesn;t matter though, at the end of the day, Ricky sat beside me! Haha, and we saw everybody there slushed by wine! Jude was sooo drunk she even kicked off her heels, and started dancing barefooted. They left for their honeymoon the next day.

Now, they have a kid, a boy, i think he's about 2, haven't seen him yet though, can't wait to see him. I keep asking Raj to send a picture, and he says only when you send me the wedding video, which Polar Bear promised to send, 3 years ago, and hasn't been sent till now.

So, looking forward to see my nephew, sham singh!

Much Love,
.Zephyr

Boy


Hello....

Hello Everyone, i humbly welcome you to my first and last blog, i guess. Anyway, let me start by telling you how i decided to open a blog. See, i first discovered my love for writing when i was in secondary school, and i am a pretty good writer, if i say so myself.
And whatever happens in my life, i will have to type it on MSN (which completely sucks, by the way) to my friends, line by line, and even after reporting events that happened, i am still not satisfied because i feel that they haven't heard the whole story!
So last night, i thought and thought, and thought, why shouldn't i start a blog? I would feel much more satisfied, writing about things that happened, and it doesn't matter if no one reads it. As long i have it written down in words on paper, well, in this case, on the screen.... i will feel much more contented.
I have been contemplating starting a blog since i was 13! That's like 7 years ago! The only reason i didn't start one was because i would be too lazy to maintain it. So i will try my absolute best to maintain my first one.

Okay people, now you're gonna know why you hate coming here, because i love to crap!

It is Jaspal's birthday today, so Happy Birthday, Jaspal! He's 24 this year, i think. And you better wear that shirt we got ya!

Got up late today, ate thosai for breakfast - home-made thosai, and was watching this movie, Hotel Rwanda. Seen it before? Really good, and Don Cheadle gave a fantastic performance. He's this rich guy in the movie, and he has a hotel, and in Rwanda, there are two warring factions; tutsis and hutus. The patrons in his hotel end up being fugitives there... and blah blah blah.
I gotta read up on this tutsis and hutus thing, brush up on my general knowledge.

So now i'm just surfing the net... nothing specific though. In facebook right now, and doing something with my new dog, Jigar, he's an alsatian. Wondering if i can get other dogs as well, i can't just have one. They're chooo cute creatures.... which reminds me... you know on my birthday, a month ago, it was already 12mn, and everyone was wishing me. We were watching David Copperfield's magic shows, yeah right, he can walk through the Great Wall of China, but he's hot. So Dino, my cousin's dog, i think he must have seen me hugging my uncle and aunty, or something, he actually came over when i called him, and he laid his head on my lap, and i just had to scrunch up his face in my hands, and kissed him on the head. Soo cute! See, even a dog knew it's my birthday! But honestly speaking, Dino is a very clever boy, i shall attach a picture of him here.

Okay, i am going to end this here. Be back for more, haha!

Love you people,

.Zephyr
