WhatsU(Ap)p?

I landed on that space and instantly I was recognized by quite a few and I became omnipresent in no time. When I got used to the culture, I pulled my besties aside.

Someone shares some information. When others hear that, they convey the same to those around them. Everyone is eagerly waiting for something interesting to happen and when that happens, all become busy talking about the same thing in different voices & emotions. This is their basic culture.

You can be present in various rooms (as I said omnipresent) and you can simultaneously be a different person in each of the rooms. This is the beauty of the space. 

Many change their faces and punchlines often.

Whatever happens some people never miss to wish you every day.

There are few unique personalities there. Some prefer to talk to you privately and so ignore you in the gang, while others might be the opposite.

Everyone keeps talking… keeps talking… talking… and then silence… silence for many days.

Occasionally, someone will speak and then leave. Nobody hears it either. Or occasionally some might hear it whenever they want to.

Most of the time, no one wants to talk. They just peep in and leave silently before someone hears their footsteps.

But some gangs are there, doing khoobh-maujh-masti whenever they can, if not often. For some, that space is the best entertainer and the stress buster. I am glad that I fall into this category and have a few such gangs or individuals.

So WhatsApp errr Whatsup friends? :-)

Inime marappiya..marappiyaa?

I tried to login to my FB account in my new mobile. No wonder, I could not, as I do not remember the password. I tried all possibilities like khul ja sim sim, thirandhidu seese… but could not. When I tried ‘forgot password’, it says it will send mail to my yahoo account, which I have not checked since few years.

But without losing hope :D, I tried to login to yahoo, but again I cannot give the right password. There I tried to use ‘forgot password’, it gives me phone number, which I think my earlier number. "Why God? Why me?"

Again I came to FB, tried forgot password and chose I don’t have account with yahoo and then it asked me a secret question. Oh My! To unlock that I tried several versions like tamil, english, tanglish, acronym and yes I got it right at 4th trial. Thanks God! I was able to reset my password successfully this time. But the account got locked for 24 hours. Just now I logged in again. :-D

Whats with the age?

We may not really feel our age but some instances make us realize that it is growing. Some of them are here.

When we,
  • Start quoting examples from our life for different situations
  • Quote an Illaiyaraja song to suit a particular situation, but the listener is not aware of that song
  • Start liking “magaali” pickle
  • Our niece ask us about the recipe of ONLY traditional dishes
  • Start giving least importance to heat injuries (சூடு) during cooking
  • Noticing children’s transition from “mom knows everything” to “mom knows nothing” (thankfully this has not arrived yet for me)
  • Find Sidharth Malhothra is too handsome but as he is so younger we cannot feel the same crush like we used to have for Surya, Ajith or SRK
If we ponder about it, we cannot behave for a particular age (Is there any concept something like this?).

We behave like,  
  • Teens when we talk with our school/college friends/cousins
  • Matured / responsible when we are with relatives
  • Buddies with our children
  • Kids with our parents
So what is our exact age? Don’t think too much about it. It is just a number which keeps increasing. That’s all.
