28 Days Later

I have an Aunt. She is quite old. It seems she has been around since eternity. Anyways, this aunt of mine has a habit of visiting us every month. After every 4 weeks (28 days) she has to come and stay with us for some days.

Initially it was fine, but now it has become really irritating. Earlier she used to put up in my mother’s room. But with growing age, she can no longer climb up the stairs, so I have to sacrifice my room which happens to be on the ground floor.

She doesn’t realise that it can really upset someone’s daily routine.We have cancelled at our plans many times because of her. Many times we have to take her along wherever we are going and it can be embarrassing and uncomfortable.

What more, she sometimes calls up in advance and demands that her favourite chocolate pie must be ready when she reaches.

At other times, she lands up without informing.
And the most annoying part is when she doesn’t land up on the day she has informed she would and we wait like fools, with her favourite chocolate pie going in our tummies in the end.

Sometimes I have to stay back home to receive her.

Mom says there is no use fuming. I should learn to adjust like everyone else.

I try to make room for her and try not to lose my temper, but sometimes she can really get on my nerves and my mood swings can be terrible.

But I guess I can’t do anything, because I know that she will never stop. Even if I succeed to oust her from my room, she will find a way to occupy some other.

Unwilling I have come to terms with the fact of having her around, FOREVER!

P.S- I have no such aunt. My room is not on the ground floor and I don’t share it with anyone:P

Heartless-2

Cold blooded..emotionless..were the adjectives everyone gave her. ‘You don’t know how to express yourself’, they would say. ‘You don’t have any love in you, you really are heartless.’ Even the ‘closet’ of her friends would complain. She would have no answers or explanations. That was the way she was. That day, like any other, she was alone at her apartment. The chaos outside did not bother her. The screams of help fell on dead ears. They found her sitting on her couch, reading a book. Everything in the room was placed neatly as if she had just cleaned it. Their sight did not bother her. Her face, like a stone, did not reveal any emotion. But deep inside, her stomach churned. She calmed herself by reminding herself what everyone said, she was heartless. They could do her no harm. She smiled. As they proceeded to rip her apart, a drop of tear fell. She did have a heart. ************************************************************************ You can read the first part here

RAY BAN ad that i really like....

White

WHITE It’s the colour of mourning. It's the colour of celebration. It's the colour of peace. It's the colour of happiness. It's pure, calm, serene, and honest. It’s the colour of the first meal that baby takes. It’s the colour of maturity on a person’s head. It’s the colour of the moonlight. It’s the colour of the clouds. It’s the colour of the sea foam. It’s the screechy chalk on the black board. It’s the clean surface of the white board. Mixes with every other colour to give it a new identity. It makes red go pink. It turns the black into grey. And it's just White *********************************** What comes to your mind when you think of White.. Write back…
