Uwanted Thought

I guess this is quite common to all of us. I meant “Unwanted Thought”.
Each one of use go through this each and everyday. No matter how busy we are, we still have time for it (unwanted thought) whether we like it or not.
I feel it is quite normal. You think for sometime then you have something more important to think about, so you come out of this Unwanted Thought easily.

But why am I writing about this???
Because I am so involved with this unwanted thought more than ever. Everyday I go through the same thing repeatedly. I try my best to come out of it but no use.
I know everyone goes through ups and down in life. I too go through the same thing and I do not have any problem with it but the question is ‘Does each one of you do the same thing which I do?’ That is ’Think more than you can bear’ that is where all the unwanted thought come in. I think so much that even my Blood Pressure goes low.
I know whatever I am thinking is useless but still, I cannot help it.

Why it is always easy to advice other that whatever they are doing is wrong and they should do in this way and that way. Blah Blah Blah
Why can’t we do the same thing with ourselves?
Why can’t we help ourselves as we try to help others?

I think I got my answer…
I know what to do now…

At last, I just have one thing to say…
Whenever, you have any question and if you can’t find the answer from anyone, Just ask yourself you will get all the answers, as there is no one in this world who knows you better than yourself.

Day of Ice Age

Last night I went for the preview of Ice Age 2: The Meltdown with Dada and Da Benao.
The movie was cool; I think you all should go and watch it. Its Worth!!
I like everything about the movie as there is not a single moment when I felt bore. I love the look of it the most, as it is so soothing to my eyes. However, why is it that the first movie is always better then the second one? I like Ice Age 2: The Meltdown but prefer the first one more.

Nevertheless, thanks to the movie, I laughed so much after some unwanted and not so happy days.

But what’s more interesting is not the movie.. Before the movie, we went bowling and they have some kind of contest. If you score more then 100 points, you get a gift. I try my best but end up getting only 82 points.
Its ok as Dada score 118 and won a gift. It was cool ; )

In addition, as last night it was the Preview of the movie they have some lucky draw where the first five get “Ice Age” T-Shirt. We won two T-Shirt but we got only one
T-Shirt, as they want to give a chance to others.
It is a cool T-Shirt. I love it : )
I always use to think that I am not that lucky enough to win all this kind of things but I think I need to change my mind.

At the end I just want to say that..
Life is all about having patience to bear all the unpleasant days in the hope that my good days will surely come to me.

22 THINGS

Having been Tag by Dear Mini Minx
Do I have an option?
So, here 22 things about myself she say 20 but I thought I will add 2 more to match with my going to be age 22yrs.

1. I will be 22 in a month, to my surprise I am not at all looking forward to it. Does this mean that I am getting old? Alternatively, maybe I am feeling too lonely these days.

2. I am extremely snobbish when it come to cleanliness, right thing at right place and my wardrobe, and tend to look down upon those who call themselves “easy going” by not following the mantra of cleanliness.

3. Although it seems that, I am always cold, calm and happy. I crib, groan and moan to all who will listen about being able to play agony aunt. (Am an quite moody at times)

4. My ideal man would be very intelligent, have an awesome sense of humor, heart as soft as melted chocolate, which stands by what he believes in, and yet is not beneath admitting he is wrong. Most importantly, he should respect me for the person I am and should trust me too. Guess I have already found him but… (After all you cant get everything in one pack) ; )

5. I like making friends, and do so easily but I need time to know a person inside out. I can be a friend to anyone from my 2 years old niece to my 65years old grandmother. Once I count a person as real friend, I will be there for the person in all the possible way I can without asking anything in return.

6. Despite having lived in Manipur for 18years, I never find anything to appreciate or to be happy about being a Manipuri. However, my thinking changes, when I was in Bangalore. If I have to do something like dance, presentation or writing an article for college I always wanted to do something related with Manipur. Like Manipuri dance, presentation about AFSPA (Arm Force Special Power Act) in Manipur or writing about Manipuri Ras Leela.

7. I like to work all the time, I cannot sit idle but I hate to work under pressure. I need my own sweet time to do anything. Otherwise, I go crazy and become very moody.

8. I love love love shopping and can shop until I drop. In addition, I have to try all the dresses as soon as I reach home no matter how tired or hungry I am. My ideal way to die would be to get hit by an avalanche of my shopping bag in the world’s biggest mall ; )

9. I talk to myself all the time whenever I am not in public view. I really love doing this.

10. To gain my trust is not a big deal but once if it is broken there is no way in which the person can gain back my trust.

11. I cannot abide with hypocrites and people who cannot respect others, especially women, and those who saw bad attitude upon people who are economically backward compared to them.

12. I would love to be a youngest kid in the family but I guess my parents want me to be the eldest. Even if am eldest they should pamper me too!! : (

13. Feed me Chinese food, anything with Chicken, Chocolate and Ice cream and I will love you for life.

14. I get carried away with my own thing and tend to forget that there is much more to life than what I am seeing of it. Need to remind myself at times to come out of my dream world. Nevertheless, when it come to decision making I am quite practical.

15. I dislike lair but when it comes to make someone happy and if, that lie does not cause pain to anybody than I am an obsessive-compulsive liar.

16. I believe that, the only way to happiness is simplicity and having a pure heart. Being nice to others no matter who they are “enemies” or “friends”.

17. I am very stubborn and get fiercely possessive when it comes to my near and dear one. Only few people know about it.

18. I expect things to go in a certain way planned out in my head, logical or illogical but never get frustrated if it did not; as I believe that, some things are not in my hand. Instead, I try to find a way.

19. I dislike pet, as I am allergy to dog. In addition, a dog once bit me when I was a kid.

20. I love people whole-heartedly, or not at all. There is no in between. Moreover, if I love a person I overlook all their negative qualities and see only the positive side. (I know its wrong but I cant help it)

21. I love -: Movies, Kids specially my darling niece, Cricket whenever India is playing, Flowers, Chatting, Old Hindi films songs, My mobile phone, Bowling, Books specially “Harry Potter” and “Chicken Soup”, My phone again, My wardrobe, Bowling again, Shopping, More Shopping, JNC (college where I completed my Graduation, never thought that I will miss JNC so much) the list is endless.

22. I can always forgive but can never forget. And I truly believe ‘You will always get what you deserve”. Lastly, I love this quote “Life is difficult, it was never meant to be easy”.

The Journey...

Reached station at 7 in the morning, our train was supposed to leave at 7:55am on the 17th of Feb. We have one whole hour, so we talk, look here and there, and make stupid comments about the people who were busy doing their on stuff. After 10min, we heard that the train has been delayed by 5hrs, five whole hours in the station, where you do not even have a place to sit. Now we have to find a way to keep our bags, as there is no way in which we could go home with all our bags. After asking the Station Master, we found a place but Deema and Bung agree to stay there. So Jeena and me went home in local train, the crowd in the train was an experience. Reached home at 9am, was feeling damn sleepy so slept off for some time, left home at 11:30am, reach Dadar station at 12:30 both of them were looking for us.

It was 1:30pm and the train was not even there. “What the hell?” we wait and wait...

Finally, by 4pm the train arrives. I cannot believe the train was delayed by 8hours, that too from the starting station.

Once the train started moving, we all had our lunch and sleep off. Got up at night and had little bit of rice. Talk for sometime then off to sleep again. I was missing my niece.
End of first day.


They got up quite early but I was still sleeping (the way the train move always make me sleepy) finally I have to get up as I was not able to bear the noise this ‘chawala’ make.
When I went to the toilet there was no water, I was not surprised as it happen all the time. I used our drinking water to wash my face. There were so many people trying to sell different things. But there was one woman, she really impressed me. She was selling grapes we bought 1kg from her. She kept her bag under our seat and asked us to keep an eye on it, and then she went to other compartment to sell her grapes. It was time for lunch so we had fried rice.

Later she came back to get her bag. What impresses me about her is the way in which she arranges the grapes from the bag to her basket. She had few bunch of grapes in her basket and emptied the basket by keeping the grapes on a newspaper. After that, she took out one bunch after another from the bag in such a way that it should not get spoil. She done in such a systematic way that everyone around was just staring at her and was waiting to see whether she will manage the whole lot in that basket.
It was quite impossible. We were saying that it will not fit but she managed it so well.
First, she put good ones then she covered it with a layer of newspaper after that she kept the entire bunch, which were there in her basket before, again she covered it with another layer of newspaper. Lastly, she kept all the single grapes in one side. She had done it beautifully that everyone smiled when she left.
We had dinner then slept off; I was missing my niece so much.
End of day second day.


Got up quite late, had breakfast together. After that, I slept off again. Had to get up, as it was time for lunch. We were singing Manipuri songs; everyone was just staring and laughing not because of the song but the way Deema was singing. After that, we were playing cards. We decided not to have dinner, as we were not at all hungry. We were planning not to sleep too. Most of them got down in NJP so most of the berths were empty. We were quite happy but our happiness did not last, as it was destroyed by three men who were completely drunk. They were acting very strange to Jeena and me and were staring at us as if they were about to eat us. We were so scared and irritated that we went to next berth were they cannot see us. We did not sleep until 2.00am but slept off after that. Had to get up at 3:30am as we were supposed to reach Guwahati at 4.

We reached exactly at 4am.
End of train journey.

We had one whole day in Guwahati as our bus is supposed to leave at 3:30 pm.
We were tired like hell so spend the entire day just sleeping.

The bus journey is another story so…
