ERROR 707



    As usual, alarm clock went crazy at 7 in the morning and after seven pull-ups(7th attempt of hitting the snooze button) I finally decided to break up with the inside of my eye-lids just to discover that my alarm clock was LOL (LAUGHING OUT LOUD) at me until I realized that it was turned upside down and it was 7:07 AM.

              As I reached to set it straight, I discovered a coffee mug on my table. I wondered its presence as I was home-alone. So I decided to put it in kitchen first. As I picked it up, I accidentaly knocked the Bisleri by its side and water got spilled on the floor. "Damn!" I said and finally decided to get-up from my bed. As I stepped down, I fell due to the spilled water on the floor. The fall affected the back-pain I had from past days , so I decided to take the pills. Ironically, It was quite unwise of me to put the back-pain meds at the bottom shelf.I thereupon saw my laptop was bleeding red and pleading me so that I would make it bleed blue. (You know if there was ever a porn-world for dell laptops, my DELL would love it anal style as there’s always a charger stuffed up in its arse).So I decided to charge it but before that my eyes fell upon the TV remote. I realize that tonight when I  will go watch TV, I’ll be looking for the remote but I won’t remember that it’s on the table so I decided to put it where it belongs but before that I had to charge my laptop to check my e-mails later. As I further approached, electricity went off.
            Then I noticed the coffee mug still there so I decided to make some coffee. I took the mug and rushed to the kitchen and made coffee. Before I could take a sip, I noticed my reading glasses at the top of the refrigerator that I have been searching for last two days. I left the mug and decided to better put the glasses in my desk. On my way to reach the desk, I saw my book at the dining table. I thought if parents might suddenly bust in the house, atleast I should take my book in hand and pretend to read so I left the glasses there and carried the book to keep it in my room. As I reached my room, I saw the tumbled water still on the floor. In danger of likely to fell again I left the book and went to kitchen to get some towels and wipe up the spill. After that, as I was wondering what was I doing, my eyes captured the bike-keys laying  on the chair. “Oops” I said. “Darn it. I was supposed to wash the bike due to the Roadrash driving in the mud last night.” Electricity was back by then so I switched ON the motor and went outside deciding to wash my bike. As I headed towards the porch,  I saw a mail dropped in the mail-box. I quickly left and rushed to get the mail as I was expecting my admit card for an entrance examination and there it was. So I went inside to put it in safe place. Then I headed down the drawing-hall trying to recall what was I planning to do.

At the end of the day: My bike isn’t washed. My laptop is dead. I didn’t take my meds for back-pain. I can’t find the remote. I can’t find the glasses. I can’t find my emergency-book. Motor is still on. There’s a cold coffee mug in the kitchen.I don’t remember what I did to the bike-keys.
I realized I had a damn busy day and tried to take a nap. As I lied down, my alarm-clock was still LAUGHING OUT LOUD at me (7:07 PM).

[EDITED] At the end of the day: Alarm clock was still upside down!

PS: Do me a favor! Share it to all your friends because I don’t know where the heck did I shared this.

TOPDOG PERSONAbiLITIES



Most enthrall and happening three sports of all time- CRICKET, LAWN-TENNIS and SOCCER.
 If I ask you -Name the topmost conspicuous sportsman of the millenium? Probably,most of you would name them as listed:
*Sachin Tendulkar *Roger Federer *Michael phelps *Pele *Lance armstrong *Tiger Woods *Gary Kasparov *Michael Schumacher *Michael Jordan *Mohammed Ali  *Dhyaan Chand  (no particular order)
I didn't mention their names just because I'm a big die-hard fan but because they were/are really the bestest of best at  their related fields.

TOP THREE:
1. SACHIN-CRICKET GOD


   One of those humans who reflects the image of GOD. When I didn't knew about the cricket god(sachin), the only thing that attracted my attention were CRICKETS(insects)outside my house. But as of now, I like it as its a Gentleman's game which seems to be quite free from hooliganism (unlike Ice hockey, PAK cricket team etc). Although there are other cases like doping, slow over rates, match fixing and more. But its been taken care of, by the assosciations (atleast we believe so). Cricket in India binds all four directions of our nation tightly. The Sachin factor has played a significant role in it.  A cricketer who has never been affected by age and continues to have the hunger for success burning in him, as was evident when he achieved his dream of lifting the World Cup at the age of 38 when most cricketers at that age would be hanging up their boots.  Despite growing talks of his retirement, Sachin continues to keep his critics guessing, inspire the nation and still remains the one man who can bring a billion people come to a stand still when he’s batting.

 
*Pay attention to the attention- SACHIN and RETIREMENT shouldn't be used in the same sentence, unless there's "should not  be taking" term added to in the middle.

2. ROGER FEDERER-
 
 29 years old but still the best at lawn-tennis. Roger still remains a force to be reckoned with on the grass despite the emergence of Novak Djokovic.  A classy player who displays extraordinary poise always, be it when he wins or he loses, Federer is similar to Sachin Tendulkar in the fact that he refuses to listen to his critics who tell him it’s time to hang up his boots and continues to fight on. Although Rafael Nadal makes it stimulating difficult for federer at clay court but he obviously can't beat Fedex in Greatness(No one can). As of now, only FEDERER or fedERROR can beat Federer.




3. Michael Phelps-
Like Simon Burnett(British freestyler) said- "He’s not from another planet. He’s from the future.”

 
  Michael  is definitely the embodiment of greatness and its an honor to watch him swim. The spectacle of his swims is appreciated not just by the ‘occasional blogger’ like me but by the likes of other famous athletes at the elite level(that matters most).He remains to be the greatest on Olympic medal count and there are no superlatives worthy of what just gets unfolded by him every now or again at the olympic level.


**LIONEL MESSI**(ARCHANGEL OF SOCCER)
   I know that top-three sportsperson's list is over but I think we can make exception for the ‘barca argentine player’- MESSI.

"He’s a joy to watch but not much fun to play against"(says U.S. captain Landon Donovan)  
 Greatness and Messi sounds synonymous to each other. He may be short in stature but leaves every player on the planet look like a midget in front of him due to his sheer brilliance with the football, for they know he can leave them gasping for breath and completely flat-footed while he races away at lightning speed with the ball calmly slotting it into the goal and celebrating like a kid, leaving them to bury their faces in their hands. I bet there's no single defender in soccer who can challenge him one-on-one(or maybe two-on-one).Although I'm a fan of CR too but still 'comparing L.Messi to C.Ronaldo is as same as comparing Ricky ponting to Sachin Tendulkar'*no offense*  Ronaldo is a little bit aggressive and ironically, his Achilles heel lies in his head.
(* IRONIC La Liga at its best-  'pass the ball to XAVI dammit'  and 'hey!You three defenders!Go stop MESSI')

Honest Question-'Do you think it takes a little bit away from Lionel's greatness provided the fact that he doesn't perform at the same level in country?'#just asking
PS:
 Kudos to all these players for their STRONG WILL and WEAK WON’T

Dear Me: a Letter to My Fifteen-Year-Old Self


Dear me@15,
                      This mail is probably gonna reach you when you must be lost in the amidst of hopeless undertaking and idiocy.Better listen to every single word I say as I know you pretend to listen but in fact you don’t give a darn.
  To start things off, your indecisiveness sucks. Sooner or later, you will start thinking of opting for SCIENCE objects. Don’t go for mathematics because you suck at it, even today.
You look terrible in your repulsive over-coat  which you’re gonna wear it at your upcoming farewell(ADVICE: Avoid wearing if you can)
   Find an appropriate way to break up with her. The way you both ended wasn’t cool as you suck at goodbyes too.Hey!  Don’t worry as you are gonna  fall in love more times than you can count and end up in break heart (s).(TIP: Stick to the LOVE.LOSE.LOVE-AGAIN  theory.)
  Spend some time at the village, nanny will be gone soon. At last you will win the battle of acne and will soon get rid of them. Be the pensive moron that you are, chicks dig that shit.
  By the way, just a head-start. DON’T go for the long-distance relationship few years later. Apparently it will be a relationship minus phone sex kindaa delapidated relation, so it’s a lose-lose scenario.
 And few years later, you will lose your embarass-ginity when you’re gonna dump your gf on her birthday. You were totally unaware of her special day and this is the only waspish-part of yours I could hate.
 Keep writing.I know you suck at it, but sooner  you may start sucking at it less(Atleast I believe so) and will find something else to suck at(engineering).Oh yeah boy! You will fall for the engineering trap!
 Listen to AC/DC instead of BACKSTREET and BLUE.Its way cooler and enamoured.
 Quit the center-forward position in football. Play at the mid-field, you are good at it.(Afterall, scoring isn’t the only good part, passing is)
 Well everything will be unvarying even after giving you my feeble advices. So there’s no point in putting sense into you anyway. You will live your life in your own way and will do the same mistakes again. And you will grow up and ultimately become me@22 . One fine day you will regret the mistakes you did and that day would be your 22nd birthday and will write crap what you’re reading right now.Sadly you will not end up where you wanted to be, but you will end up where you need to be.  Like they say, it’s all written, in destiny or on internet.

LOVE,
Me @22
PS
Be Brave(but look who’s talking).
