Apart from the very talented (ahem.. this is a lie btw) Chriz falling in love with his neighbour, i have noticed in the past three weeks that love is indeed blosomming everywhere around me.. (Yeah, don't rub it in. Around me. Doesn't include me. Sigh!) In fact, three of my friends have tied hearts (and soon knots) with their self-proclaimed soul mates, including one who i least expected it from... And one just celebrated her first anniversary! (i totally forgot about it, of course. I don't even remember my own birthday, let alone her anniversary date! This was followed by a msg from her boyfriend saying : "psst! wish her! and it's totally not my idea ok?" and you can imagine what followed this. The 'you-ignorant-friend-who-doesn't-care-about-love' lectures.. ahh! that's ok
Just as i was brooding over the fact that men have no taste whatsoever these days (why else would i still be single? huh?), something... changed my mind. I realised love is sometimes funny too :P Yea.. comeback post :P
I was returning home from a friend's place. It was incredibly hot and i was testing the effectiveness of the new sunscreen i had worn ( actually it was HOT INSIDE THE DAM BUS!) today. Innocently listening to music, i turned around, only to find myself face to face with a girl koochi-kooing her lover! Ahemm... And the funny part is.... Whatever they did matched the song i was listening to! It was hillarious! Here's the lyrics and what was happening.
The song: You and me by Lifehouse (ROTFL... what was i doing listening to a sappy love song in the first place... ahemm.. err.. another story)
What day is it? And in what month? This clock never seemed so alive...
Boy catches girls wrist and peers at her watch. Then thinking no one's watching, bends down
and kisses her hand!
I can't keep up, i can't back down, i've been losing so much time
People keep walking by the seat staring at him but his lips seems to hav stuck themselves
to the back of her palm as tho someone applied super glue to it! After some disgusted stares,
he removes it and places his hand there instead as tho sealing it in her palm forever! (yeuch!)
Cause its you and me and all of the people, with nothing to do, nothing to prove
They look into each other's eyes and the conducter shouts at them to get the ticket. They don't hear!
And it's you and me and all of the people and
I don't know why I can't keep my eyes off of you
They are still looking into each other's eyes and the both sigh (and so do i. Love really is blind.
The conductor has given up)
All of the things, that i want to say, Just aren't coming out right.
The boy, evidently is not very proficient in english. And he tries to propose his love to his
darling in english to impress. Big mistake!
"Maii lakshumi, you aaare. Ai looue you. My pondati (wife in english) di you beee"
I'm tripping on words, you've got my head spinning, I don't know where to go from here
"Vichu stop shall i take ticket faar?", she asksu (oops) in equally fluent english. He sighs in
defeat "yenywear dearrr. You aree thear no. That is enuff"
Then i turn back to my window, wondering why this was so weird. When i turned back,
the line was
Everything she does is beautiful, everything she does is right....
She buys a ticket from Mylapore to central and he looks at her fondly as she talks to the
conductor, his eyes looking as though a miracle was happening in front of him.
I turned again, kinda freaked and switched songs. And the next was Holiday by Greenday. I
smiled and thought this could have nothing with them. When i turned to see a slight drizzle
building up. I froze.
Behind me i heard the guy say "Jestu heaar the rain s voice"
And the lines went
Hear the sound of the falling rain, coming down like an armegeddon flame
I got off at the next stop!
