Elfchen - Herz

Rot,
Der Herz,
Mein Herz brennt,
Ich kann nicht leiden,
Leid!

Gimme Red!

its fun to be on prod support..... get up early.. fresh air.. you dont have to travel by the bus..rather stick out your head thru the window and feel the cool breeze on your face.. as i was lost in my dreams of doing this everyday, the voice of the driver startled me... 'Not very good drivers no, these pallavan bus drivers?'. 'Yeah, not too great'. 'i read about the accidents last evening at XXX place. Pathetic'. 'Yeah, well people dont care here.'.and then he went on about how people here take things very lightly and dont stand up, blah blah blah.. and then i got his fix-all idea. 'In our state kerala, we dont do things like this. if we have a problem, we STRIKE! nothing works on a day of strike. no car, no bus, not even cycles!' i was like ok, red kerala and wb are known for using strikes to put off doing work. 'You must also do such things you know? Go on a strike. dont work for a day or two. even for days together.then ppl will become allright.' to me it seemed like typical commie bullshit..

i'm not one of those people who says not everyone is equal and stuff but i do not understand why people have to strike at the drop of a hat. and this fellow was actually 'advising' us to take action. thanks but no thanks. he was pretty proud that it worked! well, one thing i dont want to do is strike. though i do admit, i'm not doing my bit to make my system work. me culpa. but no strikes damn it. i just hate the idea of people trying to not work and make others not to as well. enough evidence of this with two bank employees at home. 'why are you on a strike mom ?''huh, the union wants us to da. they say it'll help us in the long run' 'long run? but its a one day lop isnt it?'

'yeah it is' my tired father says. 'ok so you're able to afford it and you'll agree to the strike. but what about the poor sub-staff fellow who has to work everyday and needs everydays salary?'(me really affected by the commie bug!) father- 'listen, let me do my work in peace. and dont act like those damn union idiots. we cant talk against them. it'll be difficult if we go against them. we'll be caught in no mans land with noone to help us if i get transferred to say some rampur in bihar where dacoits will come to the bank and demand 'loans' from me! you want that to happen? it happened to my friend and he got shot at for having refused some thakur! now shut up and go' back to reality, all that striking bit seems absolute bullshit now.. it did sound that way back then too!

Have you ever............

Have you ever felt the need to .......
walk barefoot on grass early in the morning??
laze on the beach and watch the sun go down??
run through the meadows..
just get away from it all...

Idhu Nalla Combeny!

i sometimes wonder how some ppl can be so shallow... would you do anything for money? is money everything ? if you were given a suitcase full of money would you be ready to endorse any product.. and take the word of the company at face value.. without even trying to ascertain the truth.. the truth!! well.. not even top labs in the country are arguing as to whose results are genuine. if you're still wondering as to what i'm talking about, well the new ads by the cola company thats got me bugged.

the actors prance around in the factories and spilling out figures.. they might even be true.. but when the whole country and esp the scientific community is still undecided about the presence of impurities and pesticides in colas, what do these ppl do? go out and act out ads glorifying these drinks.. what would the common man whos illeterate do? he thinks the world of his fav actor/actress.. he'd go on and keep drinking those damn colas.. whatever happens to him, the actor/actress are absolutely unconcerned.. they've got their bags full..err suitcases full..

actors/press personnel, these ppl are very visible in society and no matter what they say, their words do have a say in people's minds.. esp ppl who cant really see the difference.. and going about endorsing or debunking products without being in the least capable of being able to judge the same, they should rather consider consider keeping their ........ shut!

It was a dark and stormy afternoon!

its raining outside... and so wonderfully cloudy..
makes me wanna go out and play..
but i'm stuck in an airconditioned room... staring at the tube...
i want to fly.. to be free..
i wish..
