North Indian Girl Vs South Indian Girl

WHAT IT MEANS TO HAVE A North Indian GIRL as WIFE

1. At the time of marriage, a north Indian girl has more boyfriends than her age.
2. Before marriage, she looks almost like a bollywood heroine and after marriage you have to go around her twice to completely hug her.
3. By the time she professes her undevoted love to you, you are bankrupt because of the number of times you had to take her out to movie theatres and restaurants. And you wait longingly for her dowry.
4. The only dishes she can think of to cook is paneer butter masala, aloo sabji, aloo gobi sabji, aloo matar, aloo paneer, that after eating all those paneer and aloos you are either in the bed with chronic cholestrol or chronic gas disorder.
5. The only growth that you see later in your career is the rise in your monthly phone bill.
6. You are blinded by her love that you think that she is a blonde. Only later do you come to know that it is because of the mehandhi that she applies to cover her gray hair.
7. When you come home from office she is very busy watching "Kyonki saas bhi kabi bahu thi" that you either end up eating outside or cooking yourself.
8. You are a very "ESpecial" person to her.
9. She always thought that Madras is a state and covers the whole of south india until she met you.
10. When she says she is going to "work out" she means she is going to "! walk out"
11. She has greater number of relatives than the number of people you have in your home town.
12. The only two sentences in English that she knows are "Thank you" and "How are you"

My List

There a quite a few lists floating around...and here is my list...

List of things I dont care about. [ These were the things I used to care before...but not anymore...not anymore...god life is such a rut!!! and people dont pucker up and go on with there own lives...I dont claim to be the sanest person or the smartest peron on earth...I am average...when compared to mahatma gandhi or other people I am BELOW average...but I know and truly believe that if I live a life where I dont harm others and be kind to my fellow humans and oher living beings and asipre just enough to leave my mark on the world I have done my job I came on earth to do...But JEEEZ...is this so hard to do? is minding my own business most of the time and get involved only for somethng good so hard to follow? I am pissed 35% of the world is always involved in some conflict or the other...bombay was bombed...WHY???....I am fed up...just too tired and fed up. If most of the people are stupid in this world then they deserve to live a stupid life...go on...fight and kill each other!!! see if I care!...)


1. India Pakistan conflict on Kashmir.
2. Isreal and Palestine issue
3. LTTE struggle.
4. War on Terror by America
5. Tutsi and Hutu ethinic cleansing..
6. North Korea and its so called nuclear power !
7.Isreal and Lebanon issue.
8.All the conflicts in African continent( Congo, Uganda, Somalia, Sudan, etc..etc..( i am ashamed to write etc etc..but there are so many conflicts that I just cannot keep track of all of them..or may be I dont know abt thm becuase some powerful country has a vested interest in the conflicted country's gold,oil,diamod resources that they support the conflict or there is a lack of natural wealth resource that the media( my main source) doesnt care to bring the conflict to light)
9. All the conflicts in Europe( Russia, Bosnia, etc etc ..)
10. and many more to come!!!!.

See...if there is a natural diaster then I can take it..but if its a man made diaster then god,..i get so frustrated...that I feel like my heart is going to burst...is it natural that man shd behave so...and hence every war a natural diaster?

I just dont know ...all i know now is I hate to read/create one another list!!!!!..lists are something I dont care about now. :-(

Where the heck is my husband...!!!! He cant leave me alone with my thoughts...He shdnt be surprised when he comes home one of these days and my heart/brain has exploded out. ( well for people who are getting very concerned...the chance of my brain vegged out with all the TV I watch is 99.9% that there is less chance of the above happening ).

I like my world when its like 7th heaven show ;-)

Do I really want something or not?

I am 28 yrs old. But I seriously cant say whether I really want to do something or I am pretending to like to want to do something...or I really dont want to do something and am doing it becuase everyone else is doing it...

You could say that in in the depth of my heart I already know what I really want....and I would say, dont try to be smart...becuase I know that...my confusion is that am I such a big con artist that I can con the depth of my heart to tell me what I fakely want is actually what I want...

I pray kapil comes home soon....otherwise my eyes will be in the back of my head will all this thinking :-)....anyway..just putting it out there

Boy I dont understand the human behavior, or atleast me..

you almost kill yourself to make a person happy, to care about a person and at the end of the day the person does not even figure in the list of your favorite people on earth...I always think i dont invest time in people I dont care much about...but I guess I do...I seem to randomly choose a few people at random intervals...who ever knew that ...funny...It might make me sound as if I am the MCP here...but seriously...i was just thinking back and i was laughing at myself why I did a few favors over the board for someone and that those people are not even in my list of people I will love to hang with. thats all...okay...bye...[ anyone reading this..I have 3 things to say to you...1) dont u have better things to do? 2) have fun trying to make sense of this blab 3) It could be you :-) ..ha ha ha :-)
