Guys, today i'm gonna try to live up to the URL of my blog! I couldn't attend morning as I woke up late. And I chose not to attend PHP in the afternoon. I didn't want to have this 4-hour headache on my birthday.
.......................
I was thinking:
[1]There are some friends I value a lot. I really do.
[2]Then there are many friends for whom I don't matter at all. I really don't care.
The only time I care is when I find some persons from the former list also belong to the latter.and it really hurts. Sometimes I think the two lists should be exclusive. It's not in my handsto make changes in list-2. So in order to bring about the exclusivity, I tend to remove from thelist-1 the people who have chosen to belong to list-2. But life is no mathematics, and so it turns out that even list-1 is not in my hands. I could never throw anyone out of the list. They have been too good friends to deserve that. So the intersection of the two sets is not empty and can't be emptied. Tough..
For those who belong to [1]intersection[2] and happen to stumble upon this blog some day:Guys I value you a lot. I really do. And I don't care if I don't matter for you. I can't change myself (not that I don't want to)!
But there still are people who are in the list[1] all deservingly. The odd friend who called me up at the midnight is one. No matter how rarely she calls up, she never forgets to make a call on my birthday at least. Given the intense blurter that she is, I don't get much to speak, though I get a few advices like "You should change", "Learn French" etc, and a few titles- bewkoof, ganda bachcha etc. Then there's another friend whose call I missed as I was having a bath at the time. It's easier for him to remember as his own birthday falls on the day next. Thank you both! Looks like my list[1] has got too short. I guess i'm losing out on friendships once considered life-long. There's some fault of mine too, indeed.
Then, there are a few hostelmates who took some time out of their busy lives to wish me. Thanx guys.
I'm sure there will be another few who wud wake up late and call me towards the end of the day,as was the case last year. Thanx in advance.

Got this colorquiz idea from phoenix's blog and thought of trying myself:
 | Vikram took the free ColorQuiz.com personality test! "Desires a tranquil, peaceful state of harmony offe..."

Happy Birthday!
(Sorry I didnt wish as I didnt even know, lol).
Well, as far as the lists go, I belive I have much much more people in the second list than the first. Most of the relationships in the world are ephemeral, they vanish as soon as the circunstances that triggered them do so. Its more of a give-n-take business these days. Its hard to find people who fit in list 1. And Im lucky to have atleast a few! So are you.
Once again, a very very very happy bday. Have a blast, enjoy, and do send me a piece of the cake (how I love the black forest)! God bless ya!
HAPPY Birthday...damn if I knew I'd have wished you for sure...but don;t worry i won't forget your bday now on. It so happens that another of my old long lost friends who happens to be in my [1]intersection[2] has his bday today, and even after yrs I dont forget wishing him.
as for the rest of the post, I have so much to say I dont even want to start..not here at least. somewhere else with you, perhaps...
And yeah, this color quiz is fun right...at sm places it does work :P
Yappy budday sirji!!
Well, I have loads of people on list 1 but then there are probably more people on list 2 'cuz of the new people you meet everyday and hit off awesomely with! But..I don't know if I can say I don't care about...'cuz, sounds funny but if I know you and you're a friend then that's it...I know (hopefully!) I'l go the extra mile to keep in touch!
And your color quiz says you're outgoing....The introvert??....Ironic? just a thought!
[tap]
Thanx a lot..
you summed up the essence of my blurt.
n yeah, some of the list-1 friends woke up just when i published this post. and so i don't feel like saying all that I did in the post. I'm lucky.
Thanx again..
did enjoy the evening a lot.
n wud treat u with a black forest some day!
[phoenix]
thank you!
i know u would have, and wud! i deserve that when u say u even remember ur friend's bf's ....'s ....'s birthday!
ohh..u've so much to say about this silly post of mine!!ok.. whenever and whichever way (YM/mail) u prefer: vikramnnl@yahoo.co.in
yeah, right.. at many places infact!
[venom]
Thanks (yet again :P)
you are right, but the point is you feel more bad when very old friends seem not to care!
That's not funny, that's good, but you yourself know that friendships do have levels. All are not the same. (For how long people are friends is not a criteria of this level though.)
well, i took the quiz while talking with u :P
ahem ahem ..apologies for holding u up during the bumps session! :D
kaun hai wo she ..bhabhiji bhabhiji \:D/
meri treat :(
interesting birthday post!!.I personally feel that over a period of time, people stop bothering about how long there list[1] is..
What matters then is how long people stay in list[1].. Even if list[1] has just one or two person and if one can keep them in list[1] for life well nothing like that..
And about the intersection list..
he he well all beautiful chics come in that list(atleast in ly case -:))
[G.S.]
you wanna get me killed?????
She is definitely not. She's just a sweet friend frm school days.
May b I blurted out something in excess because her's was the only call on that night.
{Make such a comment (if at all u want to) only on the fictional 'The Phone Call' series- the silent girl.}

That's the best way of thinking on this topic i guess. ur comment helped me correct my way of thinking on it somewhat. thanx.
yeah in my case too :D
