Woven Memoirs!!!

A much awaited trip…
Reasons aplenty, those that I can quip
From the Silicon Valley to the TriState
The days of haste
A well deserved break for a slaughtered mind
Gift of a kind, truly of a kind
Hustle and bustle,
Chaos and the rustle
From the lady of liberty
To the antics, infinity
Ground Zero, it was
To the Walls of Economy, did we pass
Tall and Proud,
Hidden and atlast found,
Empire State, it is called
Indeed, we were enthralled
Nasdaq, the topping
At Times Square, we went groping
From the city to the Metro Park
Thousands of reasons to let a spark!!!
My Dream come true,
A vision, an experience, anew
Days just gone by,
Within memories, it would stand by!!!

Dedicated to New Jersey, New York, Statue of Liberty, Wall Street, Times Square,
Nasdaq, Empire State Bldg, Grand Central, WTC and the Niagara!!!

Cheers,
Kasa

…in love

all over again…
…………..with Niagara!!!

enna ithu? enna ithu?

My Goodness!!! Am I losing the art of expressing in my own blog. There used to be days when I used to blog almost daily and sometimes even more than 2 posts a day.

But now, the whole situation is on a roll!!! I cant seem to find any words to type my emotions here!!! Not sure why!

Not that I dun have anything to write about. Infact there are so many exciting things happening now currently which I would rather not blog about. Way too personal, I guess. But dun bother. Allz fine!

One year and five months! Dun ask me for what? Just a simple calculation which made me smile to myself!

Maybe I am way too excited. I cant help smiling again and again as I think of the turn of things in this roller-coaster ride of life. But just that I am happy for myself, my heart and my soul.

Just incase, someone forgot! Today is Thursday, but I dint get to meet my first instant guy though. But it felt good when someone concerned about you did an extra favour so that you dint miss something. Too much of “somes”. But no mind to keep blogging about each and every scene of my day. But a Big THANKS to someone!!!

Anyways, the world’s busiest city is awaiting me and my dream place is ready to wrap me in its arms. All this and more!!!

Cheers,
Kasa

The birthday gift.

Today : March 12, 2007

Dear ~~~~~~~
Happy Birthday
Have a blast!!!
From ~~~~~

Nine Words. Words that played again and again inside her head!

The ones written on the gift. The one from Him to Her.

What could it be?
Could it be a bouquet of flowers?
Could it be a cute li’l teddy?
Could it be a hand-made painting?
Could it be a heart-shaped clock?
Or Could it be a silvery white necklace?
What else could it be?
She wondered!!!

She liked the surprise.
She liked the suspense.
She enjoyed it.

She looked at it once again and placed it carefully back in her shelf.

The stamp on the parcel read : March 12, 2006

…of those Yonder joys!!!

Enticed and enraptured,
Day in and day out,
Feelings untold,
The best one could behold
A dream of the long lost times
Those sparkles and musical chimes
Yet again, Here it is
Times of Joy, Times of elation
Gone are the days,
Days of frustration
Just beyond the horizon,
A new ray of hope
Hopes of a better future
More than I can seemingly nurture
Piles of smiles
Those on the lovely lips
Yonder and yonder,
A faraway land, one can wonder
Those lovely waters,
Those lovely pastures,
On a travel to heavens…
A journey to the joyous realms!!!

Cheers,
Kasa

…a testimonial for someone special!!!

Say networking and the next word that comes to the mind is Orkut. Whoever thought about this idea should be given the next Nobel prize. That would be my personal recommendation, that is, if they accept my opinion. Grinz!!! As we get to meet all our long lost and dear friends, I wonder, Did I really have so many friends in my lifetime? Having more than 350 friends. Friends as in F-R-I-E-N-D-S and not just A-C-Q-U-A-I-N-T-A-N-C-E-S. I dont accept any strangers as friends and I dont send friend requests to those whom I dunno.

All of them are my own. My Friends. Friends. The only relation in life that God and Indian parents give freedom to choose ourselves.

So why this blah blah all of a sudden. Orkut. Accepted! The Best. Accepted! Friends. Accepted. So what? You may wonder!!!

Hold on…If someday, sometime you were forced to delete all of your friends list excepting for one, would be able to choose that special person?
Just one friend. “F-R-I-E-N-D”. No tags attached.

Incase I was pushed into such a situation, I know whom i would be choosing among my 350+ gems. My best ever. My one and only. My best friend.

The one relationship that started with hatred, blossomed as acquaintances and turned out to be the most fragrant one in my life.

All times of my recent life, recorded diligently in his memory. Such is his concern. A concern rarely found. Selfless. Honest. Always ready to lend a soothing shoulder. All these and more. But with no tags attached. That is the most precious part of our blessed friendship. Nothing more than pure friendship and still we stay close to each other. All our chit-chats, useless fights, not-so-long-hourly talks, but anytime-phone-calls. Thank God, I found him. The “Vetti Payyan” in my life. My Best ever friend.

The one who stayed with me throughout. All through my miseries, all through my memorable moments, all through my joy.

So for the one who maintains the colors in my life, KUDOS!!! You are indeed the rainbow of my life.

Cheers,
Kasa

…of that first instant!!!

There were days when I used to complain about the long hours of travel from my home to my workplace and this jinx continued even beyond seas and oceans!!!

My office is about 15 miles from my apartment and I need to board a public transport to commute daily. Almost 3 hours of my precious day is spent in travel.

Atleast till I get my driving license for which I had sowed the seed yesterday by clearing the written test. Just another step and I would be eligible for driving here in California.

But these days, I am getting used to the travel in the bus, enjoying my music, sometimes enjoying my books and nowadays enjoying the handsome guy behind the wheel too. Wink!!!

I know it is kinda weird. But from day 1, I have not been able to take my eyes off. I wont say he is gorgeous. I wont see he is the most handsome guy I have seen. So wat? He is still one whom I can ogle on.

The saddest part of the story is that I get to see him only once a week. Sigh!!!

Watever!!! There are many things that I have started doing offlate and am sure the life and the rollercoaster ride(as Paulo Coelho states in his “Eleven Minutes”) that I have been passing through has smoothened for a while, a short while maybe. Whatsoever, I am starting to enjoy this ride and will do so till the end!!!

P.S. Watched Veer Zaara for the first time yesterday and have fallen in love with it.

Zindagi, le ke aayi hai, beete dinon ki kitaab
Ghere hain, ab hamein, yaadein be-hisaab
Bin poochhe, mile mujhe, kitne saare jawaab
Chaaha tha kya, paaya hai kya, hamne dekhiye
Dil mein magar, jalte rahe, chaahat ke diye
Tere liye, tere liye

Awesome Lyrics!!!

Cheers,
Kasa

…of me and my blah blah!!!

Just when you think things are not going right, you suddenly find a new lease of life, a lovely one too…

One that you havent dreamt of. Like the calm after the high torrent of waves.
True, Light accompanies darkness and brings in means and ways where you start learning to tackle the darkness.

I guess am getting philosophical. But whatever happens is for a good reason. And I truly believed in this all through and will continue doing so for years to come.

Almost more than a week of my own apartment, my own cooking, few appreciations that travelled far away, right across the seas to my mom, few health problems etc, etc…

But this experience here is teaching me so many new things.

Very Many New things…

Getting to do small things and the joy in completing them.
I guess it is all part of getting matured!!! Do I really have to get matured?
Cant I stay as a kid all thru my life..Sigh!!!

Watever, few more trips coming along…San Diego, Los Angeles, NY and Niagara.
Am not sure which of them is gonna stay in my memory for long.

All are gonna be special in a different way, but still…

Life’s just Like that. Full of mysteries. We need to take it as it comes…Period.

Cheers,
Kasa

Song for the day : If you’re not the one by Daniel Bedingfield

Ab to Forever!!!

If I were to give you something,
What would you want?

Shall I give you money?
You can buy all that you need
From jewels to lavish lifestyle
But money is temporary
You might spend them all, one day!!!

Shall I give you friends?
You can have all the company that you need
From morning to night
But friends might go away
You might start missing them all, one day!!!

Shall I give you books?
You can have all the knowledge that you need
From past to present
But books are not a necessity
You might forget all those that you read, one day!!!

I shall not give you any of these…
Not even one of the above…
But I shall give you the one gift I have…
I shall give you all my love
You can have all my care and affection,
All that you need and even more
From now till death!!!

Cheers,
Kasa

Those Scintillant Rays!!!

Innocent thy smile,
Smile beautifully curved on your lips,
Majestic thy eyes,
Eyes, deep and exotic!!!

Happiness and Joy,
Joy of possessiveness, that which I see,
Those on their faces,
Faces of your loved ones!!!

Calmness of the seas,
Warmth of the suns,
Love of the Lords,
Charm of thy creators!!!

Childhood and Grandeur,
Bright and Refreshing,
Refreshing our lives,
As radiant as the precious DIYA!!!

P.S. Dedicated to a special one!!!

Cheers,
Kasa
