Get Real xD



Its been 17 days since I wrote my last blogpost. The break was unwarranted for and that was what made it cool! xD The worry in everyone's voice when they asked 'did you stop blogging?' made it worth it =P  Somebody cares about me and my blog B| OK! I am an attention seeking maniac!! What to do??!

Time to Get real!!!


Last Last Sunday the KFI Drama fest happened. It was the chillest play in town -about the student themselves in myriad ways! The play started with a huge presentation on some social networking product , although none of us ( atleast less intelligent beings like me) could catch head or tail of it , the sound technological terms impressed immensely. Then came a court scene which many movies would beg for! The 2 ppl who ‘acted’ as lawyers deserve special mention. Then comes the FUN part! The Drama takes us back to the school life of a batch of students who are at their natural best – BE it Karu (mis pronounced Kalu) =P who fights for munch and kitkats , Sanah who is at her bubbly Punjabi best! , Ladu who shows of his basket ball and ‘other skills ;) , Vaidehi with a splendid piece of acting , the girl who is obsessed with the mirror , the guy who calls psychology students psychos and the football , spd fighting scenes surely brings back splendid amounts of nostalgia and fun.





The play also deals on various issues like peer pressure , violence etc in the way it happens. So now everybody would want to watch it now...gahahaha (my evil laugh ) its already over! However video can be supplied to those interested =P  provided that the blogger gets a copy first!



The Drama stole my heart at many levels  - when Narayan anna said that ’32 students are performing’ and corrected it to 31 guess who’s heart felt a PANG? Mine of course! The dance performance by Sanah and Karu was just STUNNING and made many pop their eyes out! The play was at its un conventional best making the drama observer lose some pounds by turning their head left and right , and they used the WHOLE room! Also Tae – un’s song ( wht lang??) and the video game scenes were too hilarious! The student sang , danced , debated , facebooked (!) , cried , fought , joked , shared their darkest secrets with us! Surely we ARE privileged!

The title of the play was disturbing me a lot! ‘Get Real’ – like a wake up call! Telling- you are not in KFI ,move on , yet I am ironically  presented with an epic show which only makes me want to increase my love!
However nothing can alter the fact that CV Rox! xD  I have adjusted to it and now enjoying life more than EVER!!!

See I am Contradicting!!! ( Finally done justice to my profile sketch! Phew!)

Fooled ya!

The Next set of Chillness your highness is paying you guys is HP7!! After watching that damn movie and reading all the books and literally living with all the character in your dreams and reality (delusional!) getting real is surely hard. My dear friend , Nomi who cries rarely (she will kill me if I state otherwise) cried when the movie ended. So matter over. The Film Rox!!


Ignoring the book , following the heart it may be one of the greatest finishes of all time! So take a bow for being a fan! <3 I read a post by some ‘skeptics’ stating how people waste their time in Harry potter. My answer is Harry potter is the only thing which has comes close to heaven and the fact that we enjoy it doesn’t make us stupid!
Watching 19 years later was hilarious! Harry looked believable , Ron  always old =P , Ginny in a weird haircut which makes her look more muggle , the kids are cute...but Hermione hasn’t changed a bit ( maybe she put some spell to look young forever?? =D) However the best is Draco with his goatee who takes your breath away!! B|
If something was missing in the film , it was surely the way death was shown. Seriously Voldy will just blow into paper pieces?? And it was great injustice not showing how Lupin , Tonks and Fred died! (Fred only right? I always get confused with George!)

creepy!
However killing of Bellatrix is another tale . “It is my Daughter you Bitch” Hahaha! Glee , joy and REVENGE!!!......Snape!!! I never thought I would end up crying for him! But seriously =’( 
SO lets get real , my dad is shouting, I have to eat .  
BYE xD

Semi Frank!

I have done something here , that I have never done before. Doubting myself - in writing a blogpost! I read Anne Frank , hated it first and ended up loving it , decided to blog about it , took this beautiful title 'semi frank' and when I was in the mood to create the blockbuster , it flopped before it started! =P

tempting aint it? =P the kindle not the coffee!
I had received my Amazon Kindle!!! All eager to meddle with my ebook manager I forgot about my wonder dream...then came Facebook! , Google , and all the other modern day mindbogglers which tormented this micro blogger! As I have rhymed a word and established the history of this fascinating project I will start it.

Semi + Frank

Anne Frank , the author of the Diary of a young girl has fully earned it to be called 'an ordinary yet an extraordinary girl' =D it is the truth! In her diary , we see a spoilt rich teenager's life being ripped apart and where her dreams of boyfriends being replaced by death , fear and Hitler. From what I heard it was a 'wartime' novel , so I was readying for some weapons and tears , all I got was depression and tears from Anne. The first 100 pages leaves you devastated , bored and cheated. Yeah , she is Anne Frank. She gives an account about her school , all her friends , her prospective boy friend. and Here she is finally running away from nazis!...here she is hiding in her dad's office which is not small as it looks , the annexe. =O Now , she gets depressed , what else do you expect when you are locked in a house for so long , not seen the sunshine , dead bored and of course constantly fear getting caught. Duh. Depression. Now to show it off she has a secretive jealousy over Margot , her sis , which she doesn't accept even to herself! Next she starts hating her mom who is picking on her. As if no other girl is tortured by her mom! =P she starts writing particularly disdainful entries about her and her other house mates!

a very 'small' place to hide!
Finally , the good thing happens. She finds love to fill the void and the wonders are seen! The book becomes lighter , we can see the freshness in her drab life and most importantly see her mature. Her new understanding of life is what all of us need. She studies more than ever with her short sight ,starts seeing that Margot is innocent and even starts understanding her mom. The happier thing is that she understands the love with Peter as only an infatuation and a desperate attempt by her to pull herself back into life - which she does eventually.The end is rather sad , by the end of 1944 they know that the war is ending - in their favor. We find Anne happy and smile , only to be fooled ourselves. The very next day storm troopers invade their house ='( and send them to the evil concentration camps.......where they rot and die. 
This is a sad story , way sadder than Semi's Sad Story, which seems even kiddish to think about now. Who cares about going to an icse school or a cbse school when millions don't get to go to a school at all?? I approve what Anne's mom says when 'learn from the deprived'.

real defined

So coming to the extra effects part! xD Reading the book was very very weird. and that 2nd very is not an extra word! It was because of the guilty feeling which accompanies you when you know that we are reading someone else's diary - for a change =P Also the fact that all this is not fiction , which we can just throw off our mind is always lingering.It is a heavy book.I am Sad and depressed after reading this.
However what makes it worth it is the amazement you receive after reading the whole book , you can see the steady increase in the intelligence and the maturity of this girl , you know she lived for sure , and although reading a diary is generally horrible , reading this one is a must!

Semi is Frank

Life is moving on. I have settled rather well in chettinad although not in the way one would expect semi to. I find myself changing , lonely at crowded times , rather dependent on mood to carry me through. Gone are the days of knowing everyone and being known by everyone. One must acknowledge that it is a rather tough job in CV with a thousand in my class itself! If I do want my name on paper , I gotta raise a scandal , but Im not a vandal no more!
Ok..now my friends are running towards me with their shoes =P ya ya! I am witty ,rude mean and naughty as ever but...but I cannot call CV my home yet! =( Sure! everyone is very sweet and blah blah ....but relocation and re ALLOCATION of priorities is tough. After having 12 years of nonsense (=P) as my priority it is almost maddening to shift gears. However this is WHAT life is about. I am glad that I didn't stay in BVM itself for 2 more years...I would have too little preparation for my colleges where brand names are stamped the second you step foot on the campus soil!
CV is one mini Hogwarts and I gotta say a very very interesting and exciting place to make friends! The variety is so much that bvm looks like ibibo and CV looks like FB in comparison! Yo! These are my last 2 years of uniform - very cool ones at that, So I am not letting the sad me in me torture Semi =P Although I feel down almost everyday , I make almost violent efforts everyday. I will bounce back , like the stone from drain water ( horrible anecdote right? =P ) and make everyone stink with me xD - Stink RICH.
                                                                                                  Your contradictory as ever
                                                                                                  SEMI

Rhyming Values

dedicated to all the sincere nerds , who never helped me - Shivani , Arjun , Diya and Nandhini! =)



There once lived an urban broad,
She didn't understand why 
she was called a fraud?!



Her qualities included helpfulness
She never ceased to create happiness,
She always had her books open,
and her eyes sharpened...





They asked; She gave
hence their lives were perfectly paved,
However,she was not Saved!
....As she had misbehaved!! =O




When asked to deceive the trust,
she didn't yield to the thrust
that was when their patience BURST,
because copying was a bombarding bust!

Yes , She HELPED her friends,
by succumbing to peer trends
even if friendship is prominent 
honesty is always more dominant!!


If this is orally pleasant
u r COOL,
If this morally pleasing,
 u r nobody's fool


              With a DROOL =P

Chillax Games

After a week full of overwhelming responses , pity and motivation , I bounce back with my bro Yajur , the 'co writer' of this blog post , on a full scale fun post. One a personal note, All is well =) and yep I am enjoying life. Again.


So we are going to present some online games to you! Games which strike a personal chord , and which have some emotional history connected to it. As per yajur's choice we started with the ever great , the perfect mixture! The Bartender!

We both and yuyu discovered this game in the kool Game.co.in , btw , that website was introduced to us by our respectful mother. =D Wanna know what the drinks are? come here and impress our great bartender by mixing the perfect cocktails! Wanna make him play guitar for you? or do you want him to scream fire? Do the cocktail! ;) The most impressive thing about this game is the bartender's face! =D As dead as a zombie.
Hot tip - The perfect drink has vodka , cranberry juice , lemon , ice  and triple sec to it. The proportions have to be found by you. We can't give away everything!






Next , the cool and featured detective RPG game. First discovered by us in 2005. The flash version is more recommended as it is more interactive , sleuth noir can be opted for those who want to manage politics . It is kind of like the featured Facebook games where you can upgrade your character , however the specialty here is that you can SOLVE cases by visiting suspects , asking contacts and of course lock picking! Skills like charm , intimidation , research can be improved and of course you GAIN MONEY (yajur touch)
Hot tip - Any one with a real alibi is not guilty. Even if the murder weapon is found at their house , you cannot incriminate them. 




To all the love birds there =D This is yajur's FAVORITE. You are the manager of the inn , and basically your job is to flirt with all the girls there and somehow befriend them , gift them , impress , win a date and finally win them over. Not like the other date games. This has different characters , who you have to impress.Another game to enjoy is of course speed dating.Basically this games will teach you the important lessons of how to find love in life and how to answer suitably.Personally both of us have spent a whole day to finish the game!!Although we couldn't...at least you guys do it =P
Hot tip - Just that all the girls are hot in their own ways! ;) if u consider throwing watermelons and gobbling bananas is looked upon as hot =P Remember to make good use of your energy.




OK. The action dudes are angry now , we get it. So , here is the ultimate game for you all ! Matrix Rampage.Don't get it? A guy in the black suit, chairs , benches, flower pots ,guns and everything else to break the enemies heads? Then why waste the time ? The guys will come , you will kill and kill. After practicing ahimsa all the time this is a chillaz dude! break! =) Enjoy , but don't get carried away! B)
Hot tip - Dabbang! Just kill =P Maybe you can be cautious about the no. of people on your floor , the stick is the best close range weapon and the chair is better than the desk!




.......and here come's the different version of Mario , KOOPA in koopa's REvEnGe. To all the KFI teachers out there rolling their eyes on the violence and 'revenge' words used - SOrrY. This is only for fun , in heart we don't want to kill em! =) So in this modern mario we have to help the sweet turtle , cross various obstacles to the door. Jump on 'em , spit fire or run way to protection.This is a favorite - but we are not the exact experts when it comes to advanced levels!
Hot tip - In the first round , if you go left way and jump on the brick , you can take the orange lotus thing to gain fire and of course SKIP a few levels.

So guys yeah! Try out these games and when you get bored tell us , we will recommend the 'pallanguzhis' and 'paramapadhams' which are what are our nativity takes us too =) ( Peethe happy??!) If you cry about the small size , well good things come in small packages , and yajur doesn't have such a big brain.
Surely there is another package coming up , with Play station games! hopefully not co -written! =D
( It was actually fun!!)



My end of the deal - the co writer is Yajur Jayaprakash and his blog is  linked to his name. It has some pretty cool posts B) Do check it out and don't forget the posts!

                                                                                                                  Yours
                                                                                                Sis and bro
                                                                              ....yeah. with awesomeness and seminess.

Semi's sad story

 The alarm went off at 6 AM. However , I was already ready for it! What has happened to my life in the past 10 days?! Here I was having a bath with hot water (!) , preparing myself for my first day of  school in Chettinad Vidyashram!! =O Yet the picture of me walking parallel to the KFI roads , bubbling with energy , expectations and dreams and inhaling the fresh air , is still lingering in the back of my mind......Life as surely changed for me, and it is upto ONLY me now to make it better or worse.
Somewhere during the May twenties , when I was finally starting to think that holidays can be useful......it started. My room had finally been re decorated and , I was in love with new bed which was wood and red to my liking!! I was reading the Dark summit , a non fiction and as usual an earphone was gifting music to my ears...what more can I ask for? 15  more days of holidays , an awesome school to go to (kfi) and I had already befriended everyone! Nothing can go wrong.....
No! Life gave the answer to me - in the hard way. My dad came and lied next to me in the comfortable bed , and was like " You are enjoying your holidays eh?" and I was like " What else can I do?" . All of you must know this - we are a family of big mouths , except my mom who is very discreet. He gave me the grin and revealed that KFI has sent a letter stating that I was not eligible for joining their school as I had not written the board exams .
That was when everything started coming reeling down. My old school BVM , had not allowed the students to take the board examinations and assured us that taking school exams can also provide me admission in other board schools....All I can say of that is that we have the proof and can sue the school for not checking the rules. Bottom line - SCHOOL CONDUCTED EXAMS DO NOT LET YOU CHANGE TO ICSE BOARDS.
I am not going to elaborate my hate for bvm here , after all it has helped me  for the past 12 years and I am sourly disappointed that such a huge institution was so irresponsible in such an important matter like the board exams. I really really hope that they realize this and amend their mistakes by next year...after all CCE is a new phenomenon and mistakes are bound to happen - with my life.
Turning back to those horrible days , when I awaited the result - not my exam ones but for the letter from ICSE or CBSE telling that everything was okay , were indeed HORRIBLE. The experience has proven that purgatory is worse than hell.Every morning I would wake up .... and immediately remember that my verdict was still hanging like an albatross from my neck . Anguish was what filled my days and tears which were considered stupid covered my cheeks....In the end I was just begging the highness for a result .
In the meantime my results came , I had done extremely well , a 9.8 out of 10 ( my style to fall short of .2 =P ) and this fueled my anger towards the system , which was causing jeopardy in my life. Frankly , I wanted to murder Kapil Sibal for bringing in something in a Beta version , this is not the computer to just check , students future are at stake!
A day after my result , I woke up at 12 as usual , only this time a phone woke me up! It was from my aunt  she was like " Chammu , we are in CV. We just spoke with the principal and she was very impressed with your marks and your ambition to pursue humanities. She has agreed to give you admission and is really eager to meet you! " and cut the phone before I could shout "what about KFI??"
Life was a daze. It has been my dream right from 5th standard to join kfi , my bro studies there and my mom works there. My kalari payattu classes were in the school's assembly hall , I have attended the lunch there informally many a times , right from the start of 10th , whenever dejected while studying , I have treated myself to the imaginary classes in KFI , everyone smiling , to motivate me....I know all the teachers  and more importantly I have lived all my life for that moment where I would enter the school as a student....which I was not going to now - forever.
HOW CANT THIS HAPPEN TO ME???? I was in the car , going to CV.
My mom - " You  are lucky , you are getting the stream you wanted!"
Me- ( with maximum effort to stop the voice breaking) kfi....
mom - We received a final letter from ICSE stating that you cannot....
Thank you mom , you have removed the necessity for me to speak , I am CRYING now , we were nearing CV and the driver was going slowly , giving me time to regain my composure. It took all that was inside me to stop crying and meet the principal. I got the admission in a day - a world record. All because of my grade - which I had control of.
The foremost thing I am going to do , once I become a lawyer , is stop THIS from happening. I cannot let this to happen to anyone else - the grueling 45 minutes of interview ,the wait and the happy news that I got ADMISSION!!! The socializing , Mamandur trip where I received a lot friends , inboxing Karunya who I decided as my BFF without seeing or talking with her directly....the sharing we had! <3 , choosing the subjects , getting specimen copies from the teachers , career counselling from my class teacher , the privileges I enjoyed! =D , the dreams , hope , faith and happiness! After all this! Like a 'niruthunga' (stop!) right before someone ties the thali my biggest dream bubble was burst with a huge thorn .
Now I am in CV. I have attended 2 days of school. I am regarded as a quite , silent girl....maybe because I can't talk. I am still in the shock . How many times in a million will this happen? and why ME? Is it wrong to love something so dearly?? I cannot fathom anything. I got the marks , the words to speak in an interview. I won the cup , given it and how can you snatch it just because the referee was BLIND?
Before this sad story gets a violent twist I am signing off!!
