In the long run, teaching is the best field for ladies!!

I was so keen to click a pic of it and post it here, but then I realised my feet werent pedicured enough

So as of now I just leave it for you to imagine what it might look like. I am blessed with such feet thanks to my genes. I exert myself and end up with feet that are blown like a balloon.

You proved me wrong !

And so is their panel of judges, 3 fresh faces ( Alisha Chinoi, Javed Akhtar and Udit Narayan) and the one and only snooty, arrogant and stupid Anu Malik. Somebody pinch me, wasnt Alisha the one who some years (read decades) back had complained against Anu Malik on the grounds of casting couch?? And here she is giggling away to glory trying to impersonate Javed Akhtar’s hindi sitting right next to Anu Malik? Just a perfect example of kiss and forget. Er…I mean forgive and forget.

Anu Malik, my favourite for criticism. He of all the people is sitting there telling people that they dont have it in them to sing. Hello!! Did someone tell him that he has great singing talent??? I doubt anyone did. But still he did sing and made us all reach nirvana by listening to his oh-so-melodious songs and the aftermath is that my ears are still ringing. So, he telling people they dont have “THAT” thing in their voice, well I dont have words to explain what it is.

Javed Akhtar is one man that I respect for his judgement right from the Fame Gurukul days. Yes I accept I am a couch potato or shal I say was. Ohk I accept I watch some reality based shows (bigg boss was my last favourite ), a kofee with karan here and there. But no saas bahu for me please. Coming back to the Fame gurukul days, I have seen Javed Akhtar fighting, arguing and almost close to throwing the furniture at Ila arun for saying what is right and who he found horrible. He did not once mince his words. And he continues the trend here as well. But the sad part of the whole deal is that Mr. Anu Malik has the final word in deciding the future of contestants till the theatre round since he has been the Indian Idol judge for the past 2 seasons. Only viewers like us know what the previous judges (Farah Khan and Sonu Nigam) had to go through. And why they chose not to be a part of this season is for reasons best known to them and left for guesing for viewers like us. The frustration and helplessness on Javed Akhtar’s face is evident many times when Anu Malik rejects a rightful contestant only cos he choses to believe otherwise.

There is one more thing I dont get in this show. They show all the contestants they reject. All the contestants they waste time on watching their drama and galore. But they wouldnt show more than 3-4 contestants in the whole 1 hour ordeal who they give yellow cards to (those who arrived late, thats for their entry in the theatre round in mumbai). When I say show, I mean their performance, and not just their happy faces while they dance their way out of the judges room. Just 3-4 out of some 20-30 selected!!! While they would show the performance of some 15-20 odd ones who got rejected. I thought Indian Idol was all about music and talent, so shouldnt they be showcasing the ones who got selected, or did I just miss something here?

I am complaining like crazy… let me cool off and I will get back to you after I watch a few more episodes of this drama.

In my current bill, they have levied “CLIP scheme” charges. I havent applied for any such scheme, neither did I request them to activate this service for my phone. On my dad’s insistance I called up the customer care to have a sweet word with them.

Their executive had the nerve to tell me that the company started with the scheme and decided to charge me for it on its own, regardless of whether I am interested in availaing such a service or not. And even if they began the service and provided it to me, I was never intimated of such service being available in the first place. What if tommorow Airtel decides to provide international calling facility and starts charging me extra rental for that even if I dont want it? Why should I pay for it!!

The ease with which the person forwarded my request to put that service off since I didnt ask for it makes me feel that they were expecting this response from atleast 20-30% customers who are finicky like my dad and might end up reading the bill. The other 70% customers like me might just end up paying it. I have also requested for a new bill to be generated with revised charges.

I was told that my complaint would be resolved by 2 May 2007 (Today) before 1700 hours IST against a complaint reference number 9003111 and as expected I havent heard from them till now (2300 Hours)

No matter how you have been, what you have done, No matter what you have sacrificed, No matter what bullshit you have forgotten, Life remains unfair.

We dont get returns of what we sow as often as we are told we would. Not everything that goes around … comes around. Your doing good and wishing well for others, neednt necessarily be returned with the same feeling and gesture.

Moral of the story: Dont expect others to be as good as you have been to them. Expectation just messes it all up !!

And for all this while, I was under the illusion that he had a mind of his own. And that he was capable of thinking rationally. But does that matter now?

I think I have had enough. My silence and my goodness has been regarded as my weakness.

So, here you go… Now I give you enough reason to support the cut off of all channels of communication. Again letting you go scott free.

And hey, Happy Birthday !!

(And I dont think your gal should have a problem with this !!)

At times it seems all worthless to even try and be good to others. Cos at the end of the day, you dont get anything.

You are the one who is unhappy, angry and frustrated.

As far as I can remember I have always heard people calling me one. Nobody ever stopped to notice that I really wasnt one. Not anymore. And this whole drama actually makes me angry like hell… and then again they reclaim…. “You are a kiddo !!”

How the hell on earth am I ever supposed to prove that I am not one? Will they ever agree?? I doubt.

Why do I even bother? Why do I even write this post?

I am simply frustrated by the way people treat me and I hope this stops soon before it drives me crazy!!
