Obituary

First of all, this is the 1^st obituary am writing.. and m neither fond of obituary columns in news papers, so dunno how exactly it is suppose to be..anyway, here it goes..

    This is in fond memory of my beloved friend, Aragog.. for those who don’t know my friend, he was a giant spider, my fellow room mate or rather ‘loo mate’ for past 2 years. . I first saw him one fine morning when I stepped into my bathroom..he instantly caught my attention for he was huge!! Black in colour, with hairy body, long legs, big eyes..hmm..he looked weird..but he dint disgust me. instead i found him interesting, coz he was the first creature who dared to invade my space .. And his very look instantly made me call him Aragog, the blind acromantula owned by Hagrid in Harry potter.. since then every morning, Aragog use to be the 1^st living being I see..i do wish him a ‘good morning’, and start brushing..and he use to simply sit near my mirror, watching me..But silently or many a time loudly we used to communicate, I use to blabber about my worries regarding the day, pending works, disturbed sleep, scary dreams…& he use to listen them silently..but he never had any complaints!!!! Days and months went by..i saw him grow,i saw his wife..His kids and them grow.. Still, every morning he use to be there with me, to hear my woes.. but yesterday morning when I opened my sleepy eyes I dint see him near my mirror.. Instead he was lying in the floor near door..i bend down and tried to move his limb, but it was rigor mortised.. sad, he went without saying a good bye to me..

  So friend, where ever you are, always remember this loo mate of yours.. I will never forget you, Aragog.. and I will miss you, especially when I brush my teeth..May your soul rest in peace..

Juz nother xmas…

Well well well…so that was the 22^nd Christmas of mine..but it was nothing mentionable..just an ordinary day as any else..The fun part being helping out my friend and her nieces in baking a tandoori chicken for their Christmas lunch.. & rest of my day was with ‘3 idiots’, a truly Indian movie, which made me laugh my heart out..and now as I was lying back in my bed thinking about the day, I was wondering whether Santa came down last night or not..sure, I dint find any presents beneath my pillow and there is no fireplace at my home for me to search further!! May be I am no more there in his lists of children!!As a kid I always wished to meet santa :) it was not to request for any presents or wishes..but just to see him..plump, jolly, white bearded man in red suit..he looks adorable..i wanted to feel his pot belly and snowy white beard..hmm..like many other kids, I also wished to write him a letter or to pay him a visit at north pole, so that I can meet mrs.claus and magical elves and flying reindeers..but…sigh…its just a fairy tale.. still, if somebody had met him yesterday night, just let me know.. I wish to hear more about charming mr.claus :)

Happy Feet..

It was outta blue I felt like searching my little treasure chest today evening…well,it had everything under the sun inside…from paper chits to cartoons, magazines, letters, photographs, cards blah blah blah… I was or rather AM a bit nutts to keep this kinda stuff!!! But all of them has some memorable moment associated with it.. that’s when I found out this sketch of Happy feet! About which me and most probably its creator as well, had forgotten... frankly I dun remember when i was gifted this.. but it definitely is a precious gift from my beloved friend.. that’s why it gained a special place inside my lil chest.. so I decided to put up this pic here as  my token of gratitude for the talented artist behind this drawing ..&  I always loved the movie, Happy Feet.. may be that’s why this sketch of Mumble and gang seems a bit more cute for me… :)
