I QUIT !!

Sunday, August 9, 2009 at 10:58 AM | Posted by Nikhil


Hey blog,
I am super excited these days because a lot of good things are happening around me. New people in my life have given me some inspiration to change my life. As a result I have finally started dieting(phew), I have started attending lectures!! But most importantly....I FINALLY QUIT SMOKING...

It happened 4 days ago when me and my friend were sitting in our adda for the usual smoke when I realized that may be its time for me to give it up. I asked him whether he wanted to quit with me so that I will have some moral support too. We said to each other, "Today is the last day man...This is the final one". As I finished the sentence I took a drag of the smoke in my hand, Blew the smoke in the air and flicked the cigarette. When I went for the next drag I saw that all the tobacco from the Ciggi had fallen! I was like wtf...I'll light another one as my last. I did. The first puff, The first flick and damn! The tobacco of one whole cigeratte just fell down...

My friend looking at me amazed asks me, "Dude...whats the matter with you?". I looked at him and said "This is a fuckin sign man that I should definately do it..." He looked at me with a smile, threw away his ciggi and we hugged. Hugged because it was a historical day for both of us because we had finally taken over the inner demon in ourselves. We left the place with a smile on our faces and went home.

Its been 4 days now and I havent touched a cigeratte still. I know its too early to say anything, But for a guy who used to smoke a packet a day, Its quite an achievment. I am proud to say that I quit smoking and I promise (on the great platform...The internet) that I wont touch a cigeratte again.

Nikhil.

P.S. I want to thank all of my college friends..Jenny, Sakshi, Mayank, Parichay. Thanks for helping me take a big step forward. Love you guys!!

New beginning...

Tuesday, August 4, 2009 at 11:42 AM | Posted by Nikhil


Hey blog!

Another long break for me this time. I guess I am not one of those "blogging freaks" who can just write about anything and everything...I like to blog only when I am in the mood ;)..

It has been a pretty busy month for me as my college started. I am pursuing BA for my degree(God knows why!). I guess I just wanted to join something easier than Science for a change! I got admission in the very popular Mithibai college. The first day of college was pretty nerve-wracking for me. I managed to salvage the day by sitting through the lectures and making a few friends.

Its been 20 days now and I am having the time of my life! Made a lot friends..No studies because of the stupid Teachers strike here(yay :p)..And of course trying to get into a relationship. But its been awesome till now..I hope this ride never stops for me and I complete my degree with a bang! This post is for all my new friends from college. I don't know whether they will read this or not but all of you have made a special place in my heart..Love you guys !

Nikhil

P.S. My system has rusted due to the long break. Please pardon my mistakes and immaturity :p.

Michael Jackson 1958 - Forever

Thursday, June 25, 2009 at 10:09 PM | Posted by Nikhil

You are not alone
I am here with you
Though we're far apart
You're always in my heart
You are not alone


This was one of the most shocking mornings of my life as the first thing that i heard after waking up that my idol Michael Jackson has passed away..

Michael was a lot more than just a singer. He was the KING. He was an inspiration to people. He was a Revolution. He proved to the world that nothing can pull a man down if he has the will power to fight back.


I still remember when i was little, my brother had a huge collection of all his concerts. We used to play them on our VCR on slow-mo and try and imitate the steps he did. Believe me it made us into better dancers but we never mastered the moonwalk. Also the day he arrived in Mumbai. Me, My sister, and cousins were on the terrace of the building waiting for his helicopter to pass by(We lived close to the venue). The moment a helicopter flew from above us we started screaming and waving at it. The chopper stopped in a distance to land but we believed that it stopped so that Michael could wave back at us! I know that was dumb but it made my day and probably has a special place in my heart..

This post is coming straight from the heart and I am unable to word my feelings. I hope that his soul rests in peace and wish that the flame he lit in our hearts never dies..

55Fiction....My first attempt!

She was mourning over Gerry's death for 15 days now. The house was messy, and she roamed around alone, isolated, in his clothes.


The doorbell rang. It was 12 AM. It was a letter.


“Happy Birthday Holly,


I am not gone yet.


Gerry


P.S. I Love You.”



P.S. This post is inspired from the movie P.S.I Love You..One of my all time favorites. Hope you like it!

Smokers Die Younger

Tuesday, April 21, 2009 at 1:23 PM | Posted by Nikhil

Hey blog!!

Been a long time since I updated my page. Well I was busy with a lot of stuff lately and finally got a chance to post something. I have lost the touch to write so please pardon my mistakes!

All these days I have been busy with a lot of things. Went to Delhi to stay with my sister, Losing weight and gaining it right back, Feud my best friends and what not. Everything was happening so fast that it got too stressful for me. Rather than dealing with it I got into a habit which most people choose in stressful times...Smoking.

I never thought I will ever be smoking in my life. But the sheer pressure of so many things got into me and made me weak. I don't know how I even started it. Nobody told me to smoke..It was entirely my wish. I remember my first cigarette. Although I wasn't liking it, It made all my stress just vent out of me. Just like the smoke. It also made me think that how our lives are like Cigarettes. The beginning of your life resembles the lighting of a ciggi. The drags remind you of all the difficult times you go through in your entire life. The ash reminds you of your past which you cannot get back. All you can do is flick it and go on..And atlast how all our lives end either peacefully or under someones foot!

I wont lie to myself by saying that i am trying to quit. I am not. I know that each cigarette is depleting a minute of my life but HELL....I would love to die young and relaxed rather than old and stressed!...I know that the people who read this will never accept my philosophy on Smoking but as they say...Only a Smoker understands another Smoker.

Nikhil.

P.S. Smoking is injurious to health. Please avoid this habit.....But if you wanna still do it, Atleast choose a good brand!

On an usual night
He was sitting in his car
Wondering if ever he could go this far
To kill his wife he had planned
But something deep down was holding his hand
He gave up and rode out of sight
Rode far away and disappeared into the night
What he didn't see was perhaps his destiny
That his wife was already killed by a burglar on spree
The Cops came in and examined his wife
The reports suggested that it was a murder all right
They thought hard on who had the motive
When they understood her husband was missing
They tracked him down and interrogated him
And pinned the murder down on him
The court said he was guilty and sent him to prison
Not any other but the Shawshank Redemption
He never got a chance to defend himself
But neither did he choose to save himself
The walls of the prison would institutionalize the bravest
As His fellow inmate would always suggest
'First you hate em, then you get used to em
Enough time passes You depend on em'
One day He asked his friend
Do you hope to get out of here
The friend gave him the blankest looks
And asked him to be all ears
"Hope is a dangerous thing son" the friend said
He listened reluctantly
because he believed that Fear holds you in prison
But hope sets you free
19 years passed, the walls were the same
The people were the same, The food was the same
Nothing had changed Or so everybody thought
But they were up for the biggest surprise anyone got
That night the friend felt something was wrong
He couldn't sleep all night long
In the morning he got up and sprinted his way
Into our protagonists cell
For what they saw was a shock for all
They saw a big hole in the wall
He had escaped from the biggest prison
It took him 19 years to get out of shawshank redemption
His friend remembered the words he said
And looked into the sky with glee
'Fear holds you in prison
Hope sets you free'

"Bestest" Friends

Monday, February 23, 2009 at 3:18 AM | Posted by Nikhil




He was a sweet guy
At least he thought he was
He had the best friend circle
But there was one above them all

She was one of his dearest friends
A friend he knew since long
He never thought that this friendship
Would make him write songs

He started liking her a lot
She didn't feel any different
His love for her grew taller and taller
She felt the growth, but was reluctant

He finally gathered the courage
To tell her how he feels
He told her "I love you"
Going down on his knees

She knew it, She knew it was coming
But she had to help him back on his feet
For she was afraid to lose a friend so sweet
She said, "Sorry, I cant do this"

His heart crashed loud, but he kept silent
She gave him a kiss and walked off
Today she is his bestest friend
But his love for her never phased off.
