Too Long for Twitter

Accidentally tripping over pictures of an ex looking eugh while you're still trying to get over them is a feeling very similar to finding money in your pocket.

P.S.: I’m not trying to get over anyone. I wish I was though. Because that would mean that at some point I'd dated someone that amazing. But alas.

Sweet Relief!

Let me overdo this while I can. Because a few hours from now, I might not feel the same way about sharing it.

Telling someone they make your stomach flip, in a cute butterfly in your tummy way, is one of the most awesomely relieving feelings ever!less than a minute ago via Twitter for BlackBerry®

On Taking Criticism Well

I have been told more than five times that I take criticism really well.
On a rough estimate, three out of those five times, it's come from the same people who criticized me, or provided me with feedback, as I'd like to put it.

While all of it doesn't make me feel too bad about myself, I just wish I had the heart to tell most of them that the only reason I listened to them so patiently was because I didn't really give a damn about what they were saying or think that their opinion counted at all.

Because, we can't control people wanting to throw shit at us, but we can be selective about making a noise about it in case it hits us in the face or leaves a stain on our beautiful beige jackets.

ASAP

There's a huge demographic of bored, dissatisfied 24-30 year olds wanting to 'quit their job' and 'do something else' that some brand of wine needs to tap into. Soon.

Over BBM

Tired of wasting mind space on my Ordinary Love Story, I finally made a feeble attempt at warning him about how my insides do a little cartwheel every time we communicate, digitally or otherwise.

“Oi! Free later tonight? Want to fill you in on the horribly huge crush I have on you and engage in some awkward giggling afterward. Haa?”

Pretty ok I think.
No?
I would totally be free later tonight had I received this message.

Music Monday #1

From now on, every Monday, I'm going to post a track I like from the international/Indian indie scene. So, lovely music from some talented, not-so-well-known band that performed at Glasto, Download or some other major music festival in the UK.

This week it's 'Spitting Fire' by 'The Boxer Rebellion', an alt rock band from the UK. I discovered them in June 2009, with the release of their album 'Union' and rediscovered them a year later.

One reason I love this track? The line, 'I spit fire. On lovers and liars.'And also because of the song's up-tempo start.
The video posted is static, which means it's not really a video but loads super fast. So, kind of sad, but not really.
