Celebration means…

 

[Via email from Iti]  

Celebration means…
Four friends.
Bahar barsaat.
Four glasses of beer.

Celebration means…
Hundred bucks of petrol.
A rusty old bike.
And an open road.

Celebration means…
Maggi noodles.
A hostel room.
4.25 a.m.

Celebration means…
3 old friends.
3 separate cities.
3 coffee mugs.
1 internet messenger.

Celebration means…
Rain on a hot tin roof.
Pakoras deep-frying.
Neighbours dropping in.
A party.

Celebration means…
You and mom.
A summer night.
A bottle of coconut oil.
A head massage.

    and maggi is one of the girls you would gossip about. you are wasted anyway at that time.

    Murali, Maggi & girl… Laughed it like hell…
    Boys gossip ? hmmmmm…..! agreed by the main men folks

    Adi, the book starting from scratch bagge review haaki, the lines on the front page looks so catchy, we can add Vijay & MP there may be :-)

    Murali Partha:

    Heh heh! Don’t remember. There were so many girls to discuss you see! ;)

    Veena:

    as Yogesh pointed out, the picture size is big.. hence it isnt rendering properly inside the column (in Firefox)

    nice fwd, and awesome pic! the poem’s lines are good, but somehow they dont seem to talk about celebration (as in ‘celebration after a struggle’) but rather joy or happiness.. what say?

    Pavan:

    In IE it’s just about fitting in. I need to take more care though. Will see if anything can be done about this picture size.

    Yes, it’s more about simple joys and happiness rather than the post-struggle exhilaration! :)

  12. on 07 Mar 2007 at 9:44 pm   Murali Partha

    Veena, Aditya is right. Besides, men typically do not gossip about everything under the sun. We just “discuss” about complex things that we do not understand well enough such as girls etc… ;-)

    Murali:
    Well said! LOL! LOL!

    Macha thanks for reminding those Junior college days in Barkatpura, Hyderabad. Our ambitions, aspirations and dreams started at that place and for some of us ended there. What is left is legacy of watching movies ;-)

  20. on 12 Mar 2007 at 5:37 am   Sundeep

    Ninna blog thumba chennaagi idhe.

    Adithya,
    Please do not talk so bad about our city!

  24. on 21 Mar 2007 at 4:06 am   Mysorean

    Jeevan:

    Thanks da! How are you doing?!

    S. Ganesh Kumar:

    As you say, it is Our city. There is no question of talking bad about it. I am very passionate about Hyderabad and love the city!

  25. on 21 Mar 2007 at 6:29 am   S.Ganesh Kumar

    Adithya;
    Are you a ‘Mysuru’an like I being a Chittooruan?(I and my mother’s birthtown;40-50% are Tamilains in Chittoor and Tirupathi areas!)For;Iwas born in Chittoor but lived only for a year!
    Regarding you;only a person who’s lived for atleast 3-4 years can talk so accurately about our Hyderabad people’s behaviour so exactly!
    What do you say?

    Did not read my comment?

  27. on 25 Mar 2007 at 8:31 pm   S.Ganesh Kumar

    Still not?

  28. on 26 Mar 2007 at 12:07 am   S.Ganesh Kumar

    Still not?Why?

    S. Ganesh Kumar:

    Hyderabad is where my parents have been for the past 12 plus years. I have stayed and studied in Mysore for 11 plus years. Both places are equally close to my heart. I have been in Tamil Nadu for over 5 years now in Trichy and Chennai. Bangalore is where my ancestors settled down over 30 years back.

    Out of all this, I really love Mysore the most without a doubt. Hyderabad comes a close second. I did my intermediate there. And Hyderabad is a place which has really hit it off with me after Mysore.

    Sorry for the delay in replying. Hope this reply is good enough for all the delay caused.

  30. on 26 Mar 2007 at 12:20 am   S.Ganesh Kumar

    Tell me the place where they live;as I’ve hardly seen any Kannada speaking people in this city.
