Virtual World

Well, sometimes u really dont expect things to happen, but when you loose all hope, they just happen. In february this rather unbelievable question was killing me - What should I do with my spare time? I was bored of playing MOHAA for 8 hrs a day all week long n FIFA was getting dull as well. Yahoo chatting was no better. There was no TV. Just I had my laptop, my internet connection, my brain....all empty! No ideas. When My friend told me about this site - Orkut. I was first reluctant to join such a socialising site but when I came to know that 'certain' people who I would love to see are there already, I cheerfully accepted the invitation and joined in. To my astonishment, I saw all my school friends n that special someone too. I was so fucking happy. I did meet all of em. As usual everyone was equally astonished to see me after a long time n they couldnt believe that I was in London. Alok Shinde....In london.....bullshit!!! I had such a low profile in school that everyone thought I was kidding. One ov my pals even said that when he told his other pals they were laughing their asses off! I didnt know what to say though it was sounding a bit demeaning but I took it rather happily anyways!!
I had a motive in my mind as to what I wanned to do on joining orkut! I did it, rather unsuccessfully, but am happy now that I did that!
Its been almost 2 n half months since I've joined orkut n today I have 116 friends! Even I cant believe that. I met some real quality people on orkut. I shared with them, laughed with them and its going pretty cool now! These are like one ov the most wonderfull buncha weirdos i've seen especially the fairer sex! There are some real quality gurls out there on orkut. I cant believe that Pune really has got quality. Some gurls r just too good! n some dudes r just too dumb! Lmao! Enjoying it!

But now this new question is killing me! Am I spending too much time here? people think I am online all da time coz Ive got nuthin to do! lolz! Whats da problem in stayin online. I login from my cell lots of times even when I am outside! But does staying online means you r a dumbfuck!?
Some ov my friends say, I am flirting wid gurls! hehehehe!! Just being nice is flirting?? I wish I knew how to flirt! Being nice to someone from the virtual world is risky..yeah...but not bad! For some, its just a strict no-no. There is certainly no harm in being courteous...in fact it always pays to be nice to people! Be it the real world or virtual, being nice to people is a feel-good thing and it does wonders to everyone's mood. We have Etiquette in the real world, and for the net we have Chatiquette! But now who cares. I am nice to everyone n those who care, r nice to me. Those who think am a fuckin despo can have their own views! I really dont give a damn!

N this is for ol who hv been there! nice one!

There came a day,When I met you.
A friendship was born
That we both pursued .
A special bond
That quickly grew.
It was lovely and grand,
And all brand new.
Through caring and sharing,
We learned to be
The best of friends
Yes, you and me.
Even through tears,
The sun shines through.
Without your warmth,
What would I do?
Thank you, thee my friend,
For being there!

Haunting Memories

Its early in the morning. 2:57 am GMT. Feeling restless and getting a 'something is wrong' feeling all over the body. The day started normal, had job yesterday, worked for 12 hrs on da trot. 4 hrs of journey. 16 hrs of relentless drudgery. But when you get rewarded in Pounds, you cant complain.
Was waiting for brother to come online. The moment I saw him, I was about to ask him how everyone was, when, he said... "Arey Bhansali's son is 6 feet high n has Dhoni type hair?" I said yes. I thought he was referring to my friend Shailesh Bhansali. After taking a moments hitch he said, "He had an accident and he is no more, Anna told me."
It just sent shockwave all through my body. I was bloody shocked. After reconfirming with him, it turned out he was referring to shailesh's elder brother. But he wasnt unsure. I knew both of them. Shailesh is my dear friend though. Anxiety started killing me. It was a panic-stricken feeling. Just because I cant bear the news of someone's death. I had purchased a calling card the other day. I nervously dialled shaileshs' no. The phone was answered instantly. Shailesh was on the phone. After listening to his voice, I heaved a sigh of relief. I asked him what happened? There was no sense of depression or distress that could be felt in his voice. Then he replied, "Where are you calling from?"
"London" I said. "What happened? Is everything Alright?" He said, " umm yeah!"
"I heard something bout your brother...is everything..?"
He replied with unbelievable composure and calmness, "He met with an accident, he passed away.....just now...few moments back" I just couldnt believe what I was hearing. He was too cool to be believed. After talkin to him for 30 odd seconds, i couldnt take it anymore n I told him aptly I would call him back.
All this was just too hard for me to take. I dont know what his family must be going through now. I just wish I was there with him right now. Just to be with him. I know how it feels like to loose someone dear. Someone you love. Someone you respect, adore. Its late right now but still I cant help going down da memory lane. The same incidents were happening in my family. I had the same mindset like shailesh. I dunno what I was thinking that time. One person means a lot to the family. Life after his departure changes. For some it changes for the better while for some it doesnt. But its painfull eitherways. I dunno what might be his mother thinking, his father thinking. What Shailesh must be going thru. This all is so painful. Life is Almighty's Video Game. We all are His players. We dont know when he will feel bored of any game and then it'll be..Game Over.
I hope his soul rests in peace.
