saga of the troubles confronted......

“There is a veil through which I could not see
There is a door to which I found no key.”

Omar Khayam

Perfect lines to describe the situation that prevailed from Monday-Friday. 5 long days and I couldn’t post anything. It wasn’t that there weren’t any thoughts hovering and bustling around my medulla, but rather, it was because I had no key to enter the door (my blog)

It was on Monday night, that I realized my beautiful hair locks were turning Grey. My memory had successfully deceived me for I was unable to remember my username to log into my blog! (Ever heard of that before- forgetting “usernames” not to mention “pass words”.)

After a series of frantic cries and desperate e-mails to the blogger.com, I retrieved my username from the blogger support team. The retrieval of the username brought a big smile on my visage. All my 30 teeth were on an effective display. (My wisdom teeth haven’t popped up yet – that shows why I forgot my username!). (Roz naya “close-up” karti hoon, isliye danth dikhati hoon.) But little did I know then, that all was not yet over. Another cornucopias of log-in troubles were waiting to pounce on me. Thursday happened to be on their stride and they preyed on me menacingly, relishing every moment of my anguish and frustration. (The very thought of this frustrating message “INTERNAL SERVER ERROR- CONTACT THE BLOGGER SUPPORT TEAM IMMEDIATELY”, shatters my spirits even now!).

But how long could god give the “chumming way” to the devils, the angels have finally come to my rescue today. No blunders at all and the irritating messages haven’t cropped up their ugly heads this time. Good for me, atleast now I can sooth my itchy fingers by writing down, how my days have been spent.

MONDAY: Had loads of fun and masti with college mates. We successfully executed the plan of mass bunking for the afternoon session and went to Prasad’s multiplex to watch “Kyon ho gaya na!” but couldn’t get hold of the tickets. Nevertheless, we still had fun as we spent around 5hrs at the multiplex playing all odd and funny games, running down the stairs, window shopping, and finally spent a few hours at the “Ohri’s” food court. We had a gala time talking all about boy friends, girl friends, and teachers and mimicking them. It was a masti maro day! But the night stung me, its venom being “invalid username”.

TUESDAY: Was a very hectic day. Still had problems in logging.
WEDNESDAY: Followed Tuesday’s footsteps. Busy and hectic.
THURSDAY: This day drained my energy and spirits- the day the frustrating message wheeled through the channels of my mind.
FRIDAY: Was an awesome day! My super-seniors had their internship presentations and design collections. And what a collection it was! Simply excellent!

Kim, Nishith and Kamal did their internships under a Delhi-based designer. And man, what can I say about their collection! It was simply mind-boggling! They designed sarees which now cost around Rs. 65,000- Rs.90, 000! (What a whooping sum for just one saree!). The sarees displayed the majestic aura and strength of Zardozi and Kalamkari. (Me definitely gonna work with these arts one day!).

Srikanth’s collection on men’s wear for (Fall – Winter 04-05) was a ripsnorter. His shirts reflected a dignitary’s evening wardrobe.

Ishita was excellent in her cuts and styles. Her collection for girls was very trendy and hep. Her color palette showed that she had taken all the pains in following the Fashion Forecast rightly. The bright and “Jhatak” colors portrayed the flamboyant nature.

Mansi and Ritu were far beyond excellent in their ethnic wear collections.

Those were just a few of the works, which I liked the most. These guys are simply outstanding. This was just an internship presentation, wonder what these guys would be displaying for their graduation show?

That’s it for now as my fingers have stopped itching.
