Some more sleep pleaaaaase! :(

16 comments
Top excuses which comes to my mind for not getting up from bed in the morning...
A herculean effort to prove my point that i have the right to sleep for some more time.. :D
Heres my thought process....

Cumon... :( :( Its 15 degrees outside!!!!!!!!! How the HELL can one get out of bed ??????? :( :(
People must be nuts to go jogging at this time, in this weather.... :X

Let me sleep for some more time… sleeping for a 'little' extra time is not SIN right?? :( :(((


My office is just 15 minutes from my house… And I have this advantage over most others which I should use to the maximum extent possible… Shouldn't I?????

Getting a good nights sleep for 8 hrs is absolutely necessary for good health.. I am health conscious… :D

I am not over sleeping… :( I sleep at 12:00-12:30 after chatting wid my friend and switching channels on tv atleast a hundered times… so I have the right to get up ONLY after 8 hours!!! Which is 8AM!!!!! Ok… sometimes 8:30… :D

What about the exercise schedule my roommate and me planned to follow every morning?We tried very hard.. But simply couldn’t get up early.. And hence concluded that exercises are a gross waste of time and they were sooooooooo boring…. On the other hand, some extra sleep is heaven!!! :D

The thrill in pressing the snooze button 10 times in an hour between 7 and 8am and going back to sleep everytime, knowing that you are NOT AT ALL planning to get up before 8:-8:15.. Is UNPARALLEL… Believe me!! :D

I want UNINTERRUPTED Dreams!!! :D

WHY on earth should I get up… ?!!?!! I will do it whenever I wish!!!!!!!!!

Hmmm… I have to get up… boo hooo hooooo… :(( :((

All these years...
Bulk mail -> Don’t open-> Delete the contents of the entire folder in one go..

Today...
Bulk mail -> Decided to open and see whats there..
Result: Lot of revelations… ( Read: Spam!! )





Came to know about the millions of dollars awaiting me in so many Nigerian Banks like the African Development Bank (ADB), Union Bank of Nigeria, Apex Bank, Togolaise Bank, Standard Trust Bank Limited (Lagos), Eco Bank Nigeria Plc, United Bank for Africa, and the International Bank of Africa

If not for Mr. Abacha, Mr. Adeyemi, Mr. Kabila, or Mr. Green,Mr. Mustapha bank chief auditor, chief security officer, remittance department official, director of the bank, director of finance, or contract award department employee, I would never have known about this FORTUNE of mine!!!!!!! :D


Lottery tickets I have won-> Draw of the Euro-Afro-American Sweepstake Lottery International programsheld on the 13th March in Essex United Kingdom. Ticket number: B956475604545188 with Serial number 97560 drew the winning:01/10/11/18/19/46, which subsequently made me win the the lottery
I have therefore been approved to claim a total sumof US$820,000.00 ….


A Notice from the Office of the Registrar," courteously e-mailed to me that I am now qualified to obtain a Degree-- Associate, Bachelors, Masters, or Doctorate--from a Prestigious University. There are NO required tests, classes, books, or interviews. In fact, only a select few individuals were notified of the opportunity.
OMG! Did I waste 4+2 years completing my grad and post grad education?!?!?!?!?! This could have been an easy way out man!!! Wouldn’t have sweated on the courses, semester exams.. Projects etc…


Some "revolutionary" product with a great message, literally pleading with KIDS..to quit smoking… Chain smokers are supposed to have quit smoking within 2 weeks of using their product… Punchline reads "You began smoking so young… and unaware of the dangers.. Now it keeps sickening you and your family.. Can you still quit??" tcchhh.. tccchh… touching...


Mail from a U.S. Special Forces commando who purports to have found $36 million in drug money while conducting a covert search-and-destroy mission against the Taliban. The "commando" says he has stashed the cash in luggage, but wants to keep it in someone else's bank account "for safekeeping." and he decided to give it to me..


Another offer comes from a man who claims he was delivering a large sum of cash to the World Trade Center on the day it collapsed. Although he escaped from the building, his colleagues believe that he is dead. He kept the cash, kept a low profile and is in great need of a bank account to quietly deposit the money.. and he chose ME!

(** So ppl.. if you want your money safe, you now know what to do.. :D :D ** )

Shocking is the news item is that, the U.S. Secret Service is supposed to have estimated that the fraud costs victims of such spams to be hundreds of millions of dollars worldwide each year. :O
Money money everywhere…. Not a rupee(err.. dollar) to spend.. **sob.. sob...**
**Not talking...**

Sania turns 19...

18 comments
Sania turns 19..

The country turns crazy..News channels give this 'extra' bit to the already too much focus on her.. They dedicate hour long shows in her name, giving all kinds of weird info and admiration towards her.

Result: Makes the people who truly appreciate her game, are at their wits end, and start getting irritated even at the mention of her name…



I sit in front of the TV, switching between news channels, when I come across this show..
The news channel introduces her as "Emerging tennis star and a fashion icon!"



20% of the show gives details about all her achievements in the world of tennis..( though there might not be many for a girl who is jus in the process of rising to fame in her GAME! and her achievements are quite marvellous for her age.. )
80% was absolute crap stuff which might cause undue irritation to any damn viewer…

Theres a scrollbar running at the bottom with birthday wishes from so many people around the country...Advertisement statistics, as to how 'Brand Sania' grew from Rs 5 lacs to Rs 1 crore in less than a year…

How her brand value is right next to Sachin Tendulkar currently..
How she is 'the' inspiration to people of this country..
(Were there NO OTHER achievers in this country?!? Jus to name one...What about Narain Karthikeyan who had to struggle to even get a sponsor for his sport… HE is also the only one to make India proud in the racing world...)

There were even top fashion designers brought into the show, wherein they were asked about Sania's dressing sense.. And each damn person spent so much time in commenting about the pinks and the blues which she should be wearing or jeans with glitters! HolyCrap!!! Another one exclaiming that she should carry her on-court dresses off-court too…?!!??

And finally one sensible designer, when he was repeatedly asked about how she shud dress, said that shes a tennis star, and it would be better if she concentrates on her game and play good tennis and it is highly irrelevant as to what designer clothes she wears….

( Why are the news channels interested as to how Sania should dress????? I simply fail to understand...)
Wow! So sania gets fashion designers' expert views for her, on television absolutely free, even without she asking for it..!!!! She surely cannot be blamed for all this...


Then they a girl on the show who has played with Sania in her training classes.. She also being a real good tennis player.. And the kind of questions which were asked put off that poor thing… Inviting a person who plays as well as Sania but jus not being lucky enough to make it big, and asking them as to how Sania's popularity inspired them was totally ridiculous…

And the girl finally exclaimed that her popularity has actually made life tough for them all… Her sister happened to win the $10,000 International level tennis tournament in Pune and that jus occupied an extremely small column in some local newspaper… ( yeah.. truth!!! And even if sania sneezes, it is made known to the whole country!)

Sania exclaims that theres a difference between attitude and arrogance… And what she is made of, I don’t want to debate.. As long as she continues to make the nation proud with her game

And one can never blame her, as for a 19 year old, so much of media hype and attention surely does something!

Looong Absence
