Nauseating Nostalgia

Its been one year since I'd met a handful of people whom I used to think as paranormals, whom I used to look up at and think-"THEY ARE THE INVINCIBLES..".

What i meant was that, while I thought everyone around me was getting succumbed to all the ill habits that encompassed us, I thought they'd been there and NOT done that, and was proud of them and used to look up at them and think of them as GOD.

A set of miraculous events and I came to know them and knew, they aren't paranormals, they are just as human as anyone around me. But that didn't kill my fetish for being in company of my supposed GODs.

The more I came to know them, the more I got startled as to how different they are, how beautiful a heart they bear, how amiable their nature actually is, how easily one can talk to them about anything under the sun...And this article will never do justice to the reasons.

Today on a very lazy Saturday afternoon , when I went bungee reading on one of these "INVINCIBLES" blogs, I realized how much I actually correlate with these people.
I have never spent much time with these odd set of folks but somehow they bring along a sense of belong-ingness (is that even a word?if not, pardon me.).
When I read their blogs I can imagine them reading it out to me, doing whatever they claimed on their articles, or hell! even idly sitting in their rooms in the middle of a cold rainy night and typing out an article cause they cant put themselves off to sleep.

A lot of folks of this cult is worth being treasured forever and for always(silver surfer), some are better to be done away with (change is inevitable, except from a vending machine), some just worth a great laugh (everyone is entitled to be stupid, but some abuse the privilege), some to look up to..more like as GOD cause you know you can look up to them and they will never look down at you!

DEAR INVINCIBLES...kudos to you, you have been better than the max cult of people I've met in my life or I will ever meet.

YOU'VE GOT TAGED!!!!

Tag..the only thought that I could relate to it or may be TAG to it is me getting TAGed on facebook by my fellow friend in a photo at a social get together or so-called parties.

Today, after GENESIS when I was so tired and exhausted I thought I don't have energy for anything other than a little bit of harmless surfing i ended up on my friends blog where she had TAGED me, which means I have to reveal five secrets about myself in public. It's supposed to be a little game of the small cult of bloggers.
All i can say is I'm game for it.
So after much thought I've actually reduced it down to the following lucky five secrets of my life.

1. I used to see the ALL-OUT advertisements in my early childhood years and think that it actually jumped and pranced about in the room to eat up the mosquitoes as its tasty dinner( i say dinner cause back in my childhood days, mosquitoes used to inhabit us only during the might.). I pestered my parents to buy an ALL-OUT and was crestfallen when it didn't jump around .

2.My dad being a mariner had to sail for around 9 months at a stretch when I was a kid, so when he used to come after every voyage I used to refer to him as "uncle", and when he tried convincing me that he's my dad, I used to point him to a picture of my mom and dad, and try my level best to make him understand that the one in the picture is my dad, or perhaps I thought that the picture is my dad. Or may be I used to think the person in the picture and my dad were two different entities altogether. LOL

3.I'm expert in screwing up any phone or any electronic gadget that stays with me for more than a month. By now I've had 6 mobiles all repaired innumerable number of times and 1 mobile still dead in my almira. I've gone as far as wiping my laptops HDD clean with Ubuntu as I was too frustrated of the virus that invaded my system. Now I live with a XP OS and no drivers.

4. I have very different views about eunuchs and would actually like to do something for them once when I have the power and the money to do the same, so that begging and harassing strangers for money isn't their only basis of living.

5. I have a pure satirical and sadistic approach to life, my problems and everyone else's problems and laughing at them in a way, such that even they feel like laughing at it.

I pass on the baton to : Undz , GVS , and Wali (if he reads this).
