Types of Friends

My friends, you're the inspiration behind this post. Some of you might as well relate to it, since this has to do with the various types of friends one has (usually). 
Read on to find out if you have any of the following on your friend list! 

1. Daily dose
The exact type of friend who you talk to on a daily basis. Day in and day out. They may or may not be your best friends but are sure to buzz you each day without fail, and vice versa. 
They will know when you wake up and when you sleep, probably because they are the first and last person you talk to after you're up and before you're asleep, respectively. It goes without saying that they are there when you need them and your day is incomplete without a chat with them. Simply put, you can't even go 24 hours without talking to them. Period. 


2. The let's-meet-up friend 
He or she might not talk to you often enough but whenever you do talk, you always end up with "Milte hain na yaar" and "Chal iss week, pakka". 
Random plans to catch up that never really actualise. 



3. The friend indeed 
This type of friend does justice to the proverb, "A friend in need is a friend indeed". No matter what, he or she will always be there beside you when you need them. Be it when you need someone to cover up for you or someone to take care of your cat at home, they're always hanging around. 



4. The intuitive friend 
You can't hide anything from them for the simple reason that their intuition is stronger than the persuasiveness of your words. Even if they don't contact you in days, they will know something has been bothering you deep down or what's been the high in your life. They can easily tell things are messed up, by a simple look at your social profiles. 
At times, this kind may well be called the 'Motherly friend' for reasons best known to us: Mothers get to know everything. 



5. Hanging out bud
We all have this one type of buddy who is ever ready to hang out, even when he/she is broke. More often than not, it's this friend who is the party animal. He/she can be found anywhere but at home. Late night parties, sleep overs, early morning long drives and what not. They're up for it. 



6. The 'Me' friend 
Let me get some self obsession here. This is the type of friend people crave to have. The sweetest, most caring, affectionate and loving friend who is ready to cross the oceans even for morons who won't cross a puddle for them. The optimist kind who never gives up on people except for times when the saturation point is reached (I know the basics of science, babe!). You can pour your heart out to this one with an assurance of not being judged and share your deepest secrets with a surety that they will remain so. 
If you're my friend, you'll know this type well! *wink*

What's in a Date?

Okay so today we celebrate the last sequential date in this century, 11-12-13.  It's the last date with consecutive numbers to appear in the 21st century, but why the hype?  Did they forget that every damn date in this century will never repeat itself?  Or is this just another money-minting criteria adopted by hotels, hospitals, bars, wedding planners and pandit ji's to brainwash people's minds and inform them about the importance of this one date?  Why the craze to tie the knot on this so called 'auspicious' date? Why the craze to deliver babies on this day? Are you going to tell me that its a 'lucky' day and will make your marriage last a year more than mine? Or your baby will be born an actor or IITian? Or probably that the food at restaurants will be better today?  Hell, no. If love doesn't see person or time, why does it see dates? Ladies, If babies born on other dates can become Shahrukh Khan and Sachin Tendulkar, why the fuss about paining your bo...

Hope isn't just a word, unless it is shattered.

They say hope can lead to miracles, turn the impossible into possible but can it make the dead man alive? They say hope can be your umbrella in the downpour, they say hope can fix the leaks. But can it fix the leaks in your heart, the tears that kiss your cheeks?  They say hope can bring merry, they say hope can make you rich. But can it bring you joy?  They say hope fulfils desires, they say hope can win against hope. But can you hope against the despondence?  They say hope isn't just a word, really?  They say its more than a word.  Of course, it's a way of life.  Unless. Unless it is shattered.

..I Let Him Go

Tonight is no different.   I twist and turn in bed like every other night.   The events of the day run a recap through my subconscious mind.   Nothing special. I twist and turn as grief takes over. One quiet sob. And another. And another. Before I know it, my sister is awake, holding me tight, asking me what's wrong. She's 15. How is she supposed to understand the so-called problems of adulthood? What do I explain her?   So she just holds me close while I cry the heck out of me.   It's not the kind of crying that babies do. It's not the cry for milk or for a toy or for a video game, nor is it for a dress or a party.   It's over a guy. A lost love.   No, he wasn't my boyfriend and he never could be. There are more kinds of love that can blossom between a guy and a girl, than you think. This was one of those different kinds.   Simply because we were different - together and individually. I don't know why I cry over him but I ...
