URNER - URvashi's corNER

Ohhk folks.. Just tell me one thing..Which is the first page that most of you type on the address bar whenever a question hits your mind..??? Its Google..Right..??? Most of us even have it as the home page....And out of all the times that we search for information on Google, how  many times have you noted those fabulous fancy  fonts and styles(aka doodles) in which the words GOOGLE are written..!!??? I mean haven't you found this creation amazing..??? One word written in different styles giving the whole picture a completely different look and meaning and symbolizing something which even pages of words cannot describe!!!! The creative team behind all these wonderful Doodles is just too good. I, in fact wait to see those doodles everyday...And the day Google has no Doodle, the page looks so plain....No Doubt the Google logo itself has its own simplicity and smartness, still the way the doodles convey the special messages and events at the same time with the words ...

He was tall, dark and smart.Wherever he went, he made his presence felt to one and all.Extrovert by nature,he had knowledge on a wide variety of topics.That made him capable of contributing to all kind of discussions around and leave a long lasting immersion on the people around.Anyone who saw him once would surely wish to talk to him at least for a while and know him better.... She was no exception to this.On the first day of their class she noticed him and instantly felt like talking to him..getting to know him..But she was not like the other girls in the class...She was an introvert,shy to make new friends quickly and so she hesitated to take a step forward.While all other girls had got around him at least once before the lunch break she could not even bring herself to look at him in the eye fearing what if he would be looking in her direction and would catch her looking at him.. But deep inside she knew she would look at him, know him, talk to him.... Soon... "Pal..pal..pal....

You all have come across the phrase "What's in a name..??" What does it mean to you..?? For me, my NAME means everything... It something so closely attached to me, so much a part of me that I don't even need to be conscious while saying my name.. And I am sure, it would be the same with everyone. We are all very possessive about our name. Even hearing someone calling out our name sounds so sweet at times, no matter how common the name may be and when we meet someone with the same name as ours, we immediately feel a sense of bonding with that person. We suddenly identify the same kind of problems with our names,the mistakes people make, the jokes played cracked and the most important...... the way they call you out..... It dint matter to me if someone called me by a different name or rather say different versions of my name... I don't have a problem when people call me with different names but then I don't like people who are not so familiar to me, calling...

Hello All..I am here with a longggggggggg tag this time..!! I came across this on Anish's Blog some time ago and found that it had a lovely set of questions. Though it took a lot of time to answer them all, I am finally done with it and the Countdown Begins here...... Ten How’s: 1. How did you get one of your scars? I got one when a glass jug broke and a piece hurt me on my wrist when I was less than a year old. 2. How did you celebrate your last birthday? It was an awesome day. My cousins came over exactly at midnight. Then I attended a family function. Friends came home in the evening which was a surprise since we were just a few days away from our final exams…Loads of phone calls and wishes.. All in all..a memorable day. ..!! 3. How are you feeling at this moment? A little sleepy. Just had lunch. 4. How did your night go last night? Had a sound sleep. 5. How did you do in high school? Pretty Good..!! 6. How did you get the shirt you’re wearing? I’m wearing a dress that I brou...

I still remember the day when I was asked by my cousin "Are you on Orkut..??" and I was like, "Orkut..??? What is that..??" Yeah I dont mind to admit that I was at that time really dumb about these things.. specially to this whole world of Internet and social networking. That was about some four years back... I did not even have an email ID before that. The reason for it was mainly ignorance.. I did not know that outside my world there is so much more to explore and I never even felt the need for such a medium of communication.... Then after my junior college I began to know things about Internet and orkutting and mailing etc. etc.. It was an awesome period discovering new things and finding I was finding it amazing... The whole concept of social networking fascinated me. "Orkut" was the first social networking site I joined. I loved to create profile, fill in all the details and the DP... that is the best part about it.... I always upload cute pictures...

"Bheegi si bhaagi si, Mere bazuo mein samaye....Soti si jaagi si.... " went my ringtone as it flashed some number on the screen.. I picked up the call closing the tab on my screen.... "Hello...!!??" I responded. "Hello..." "Ohh..Hiee..." "Hi." "How are you...??? Kab aaye..??" "Arey bas fine... Just came back yesterday.. Tum batao.. Kya haal hai..?? " "Nothing much yaar... These breaks are so boringg....." "You know aaj mein tumhe is naye number se pareshan karne wala tha... But yaar tum to 'Hello' se aage kuch bolne hi nahi deti...!! Tumhare pass yeh naumber to nahi tha naa..?? " "Naa....Nahi tha..." ( Laughing uncotrollably...) "Arey tumhari aawaz kisi bhi number se pehchanungi yaar..." "Hmmm.... Koi naa.. Main koi aur plan banaunga tumhe pareshan karne....." "Wo kyon..?? Pareshan karna jaroori hai kyaa..??? "..... Just a snippet from the conver...

"The first thing I do in the morning is check my cell...." Its a group I have joined on FB... But isn't this a fact for the most of us..?? Just talking about yesterday- I woke up in the morning. Checked my cell besides the pillow. Nothing new. Just rubbed my eyes and sent a message to a couple of friends- "See outside the window... Sun rising for U, Flowers Smiling for U, Birds Singing for U, 'Coz last nite I told them all to wish Good Morning to U...!! GM :) " I sent the message and after a while I got a reply- "Koi fayda nahi yeh sab karke. ;) Mujhe bahut neend aa rahi hai... Sone de mujhe. GNSD..." GNSD..This was at 9.00 in the morning.... Great friends..!! I replied- "Ok..sleep well... GN.. :) :P" Now this what I want to talk about today........ SMS.... I have developed this habit of hitting the reply button as soon as I read a message.... I don't know but how over the past few months I reply for most of the messages that I recei...

Someone has said, “Patience is a virtue. Possess it if you can. Seldom found in Woman, Never found in Man” Do you agree to it?? Talking about myself, I think I am patient a lot. I am never in a haste to get something or complete my task. I can wait for a reasonable amount of time. Also I try to be patient and calm when someone around me is angry. So,in this way, I am patient. But..But...But...there are times when I turn impatient too.. When I know something half through, I have to know it completely then and there. There are sometimes when I want to know the things or tell something and I get impatient.. Happening a lot with me lately.... Talking about Men....Ahem Ahem..... Well... Not about all.... Just want to talk about one of my friends who is very, very, very patient...(Pun intended...!!!) Some days ago, while I was sitting with my friends in the canteen, discussing over something, my Friend Bharat said "You all are stressing my patience.." I thought I heard something ou...

Give me some sunshine Give me some rain Give me another chance I wanna grow up once again... Kandhon ko kitabon Ke bojh ne jhukaya Rishvat dena to khud Papa ne sikhaya 99% marks laaoge to ghadi, varna chhadi... Likh likh kar pada hatheli par Debit , Credit ka chaala Profit or Loss aur Balance sheet ne poora bachpan jalaa daala Bachpan to gaya Jawani bhi gayi Ek pal to ab humein Jeene do jeene do.. Na..na.. na... Wondering why I am writing songs here...?? Well I m just humming this song which I heard at my farewell the other day.... In case you dint notice, my classmates made some customisations for the song to suit to our commerce background..!! That was our last day at college officially. We had a farewell party which was really wonderful. Had awesome performances, award distribution and above it, DJ too.. A memorable evening with mixed feelings...!! This phase of my life- "college" is also getting over now... Feels kind of nostalgic... 5 years spent in the same place... Whe...

A very strange, not strange actually...well you decide for yourself..what did u feel after reading this....!! What I am going to write about is true... I wrote this in drafts and dint publish it also for two days thinking if I should or should not.....but I think I must....!! What happened was....... I was just walking back home with my friend when on the way I saw a vendor with some beautiful small purses that were knit using threads of different colours.They were really beautiful..I just happened to keep staring at them even while walking along and exclaimed to my friend "Wow..they are so beautiful...!!!" Before I could even ask him to accompany me to that corner to have a close look at them, he said. " Why are you all girls like this..?? You like succhhh things..???" Hearing this, something about our conversation around an hour ago struck me - where I was talking to my friend about some Eye-Liner..!! Now I know talking about cosmetics and all sounds girly , but...

Part 1 Part 2 Once again, life had brought us all at cross roads. We had to choose our careers as per our choices. In Mumbai, we have college right after class 10 . We were all excited about beginning our new phase of life...the COLLEGE life..!! We all explored the various options and as destiny would have it for us, Damini, Urvashi and I were all in commerce . Though Damini was in a different college, we could still meet up once in a while and discuss what was going on with our life and college... And Urvashi, she did not leave me here too... She was in the same college and we would meet up almost daily.. Time just passed and two years passed in a snap. It was actually one of the best times we had. Our whole day would pass going to college, classes, learning the debits and credits and the economic policies.....!! After 10 + 2, for our graduation, we all thought of some different courses and colleges once again. We all wanted to do something basically related to finance but none of u...

Part - 1 Our school practised the policy of "Divide and Rule" ... Yes, they shuffled our divisions for our secondary classes but we were of course the students of the same school and we followed our own policy of "United we stand "... This in turn , led to "Divide and Unite..." Sounds strange naaa ?? but that is what happened with me. I became Binal's friend. Though I knew her and Urvashi earlier, we did not speak much. Now, as things turned out to be, I also became their friend and we met everyday during our breaks discussing tales of both the class rooms. Everyone had new friends and their old set of friends too.. So, in a sense, our groups started growing with us..... Then we all joined up the same classes for our SSC and that was one of the best times of my life, spent with my friends. Ours became a group of 5 eventually who always sat together, studied together and partied together... Yes those were the initial years when we started to celeb...

Pre script :- Hmm.. Bollywoood has seen so many stories about friends, specially guys and that too three guys... Hera Pheri, Hey Babby, Phir Hera Pheri and many others with 3 idiots being the latest on the list.... But never ever there has been a story on three girls who are friends.. not just friends..very good friends...I just thought of writing something in that line and this is a true story... All the characters and places bear resemblances to people alive.. :P This series dedicated to my lovely, really sweet & great friends Binal and Damini.. Love you both and thanks for being a part of my life ......... :) :) This has nothing in common with the movie, the title declares.... Sometimes, looking back at time now, I think we were destined to be togehter since the first day of our school..In the same school and same class... when we did not even know the meaning of friends and friendship, I and Binal shared the sweet days of school, right since nursery.. I guess I dint know ...

I want to wish all my friends a VERY VERY HAPPY FRIENDSHIP DAY and thank them for being with me at various stages in my life. You did make a difference in my life and even today if I am not in touch with you, or we don't meet or talk much, I still remember you and the times we spent together. Those moments can never be forgotten. This story for my dear dear friends who have been my friends right since school and all through college.. For all my friends whom I met at various other places, for all my friends on this Blogosphere ... n whooo... the list can go on and on.......!! Copied hai.. ;) But straight from the heart just 4 u..!!! :)

I know the title sounds as if it is inspired from " LOVE AAJ KAL " . I could not think of anything better for this.. Hence, the name.. !!! Gone are the days when you had your friends just from your school, your college or neighbourhood. The term 'friends' is now no longer restricted to the people you know face to face. With the advent of social networking sites, making friends online is the latest buzz around. I still remember my school days when in our English letter writing we were given a topic to write a letter to pen friend in some other country describing about the Indian culture and the festivals celebrated here. At those times, these all situations seemed so vague to me that how could you be friends with someone whom you have not seen.?? But this is no more a vague thought for friends and friendship. With social networking sites coming up, we get an opportunity to meet new people from various places with whom we share common interests or occupations. It jus...
