once upon a party!

so... for once after a birthday party... i started writing this song... but well.. before i could finish.. the rest of the party woke up... we headed out.. the made came in... the place was cleaned... and the sentiment was lost... so here's what we could manage in all the time we had!... and then since he yelled @ us.. for being lazy.. i finished it!


there must be some kind of way... out of here!
said the dust-bin to the kitchen sink!!!
there's too much of filth & grime... i can't hardly breathe
friends, they throw empty beer cans... other friends... left-over pizza!
none of them in all this time bothered to turn & give a second glance!

"i still feel kinda hammered" said the head to other parts of me!
"there are many around us.. who feel that last night was but an illusion
but you & i... we've been through enough of these... clearly its no first date!
so let us not be too hopeful... just pray for the MAID!!!

all along the balcony floor, smokers threw ash
while all the food came & went, left-overs, too.

outside @ JayaMahal in the distance the dog did bark,
two guards were approaching, walked cautiously in the dark

they call her destiny!

so... it started a morbid july.. or was it august... when L'O'real came to campus :) that was the first.... first of many :)

such was the naivete! the brilliance of those early days of an MBa... when we thgt.. .it was all probably possible... so here's my favorite list.. .for posterity! that i don't particularly feel like explaining @ this moment!

1. L'oreal! - GD
2. Britannia - GD
3. Mahindra - Interview
4. E-clerx - Interview (they wanted me cos i'd been with JPMC... rofl!)
5. Wipro - Interview
6. Ceat - BORN TOUGH! - Interview (i told them about how tyre sales explain how a country's economy is performing... HELL! if lip-stick theory is acclaimed & accepted! GOD knows i had more logic going on tyre-theory!)

lucky 16 or something... oh well that was some roller-coaster eh?

if one believes in destiny... this summers... set-us-up for a final interview that snow-balled into last 2.5 yrs in retail... :)

anyway....

as he pointed out the other night... remember... ONCE UPON A TIME! when we used to write exams... and unit-tests... and SO ON...

the LAST exam... always was a victim... of the first guy who left your exam room! i mean how could you still be writing an exam when his vacation had already begun! sacrilege!

how far n further away we have come from those days!

weekend somehow never can compare... neither can long weekends... or annual vacations!

we're just responsible or answerable for too fuckin MUCH!
