Get Gorgeous

Whilst flipping through channels on my set top box I stopped at Channel [V] after a really long time I must add, why? because they were airing the latest episode of Get Gorgeous season 4, The hunt for India's most gorgeous woman, yells model turned VJ Pia at your face. Bleh, just another crap reality show with some anorexics slugging it out to win a coveted contract with Elite. Now what gained my attention here was one of the ten finalists, Rebecca, lived in Mahim till a few months back and I used to go for math tuition with her brother Bosco. Well she was always the skinny types, never spoke much and boy I am very surprised to see her on tv. Wonder how she persuaded her mum for permission. Apparently she wanted to model since she was three, wow I hope that was not made-up. Well now that she has gotten in all I wish her luck, can't say if she can win, the others on the show all appear to be dumb including her. There's no one with killer attitude to show off and model material types where one on looking could say "Whoa there, here's some model". Whats happening to us women of the country I wonder?
Question of the day, post your comments a.s.a.p
Whats bothering me more than the sorry state of models today is the disappearance of Bosco, Rebecca's brother who just vanished in thin air in between, a nice chap he was shy fellow.

theft

And recently there has been these series of thefts and robberies fleeting through the city like a plague. What could bother me more right now than the fact that I want to get rid of this viral fever quick as possible. But no, my building played host to two of these miscreants this morning. Now who would ever possibly think of targeting a sleepy old building more than 20 years old, who has never had anything exciting in its old existence except for maybe a two addicts and a mad man. Now these thieves (un)fortunately decided to break open a house on the first floor which has been closed for more than 15 years every since old aunty Carol expired. The thieves thought they were clever and locked all the doors of those on the first floor in the morning they managed to pick the lock but obviously didn't find anything, duh! The first floor tenets got their two minutes of fame when the cops were called, i.e. just one pot bellied constable. In all this commotion my folks forgot that i was unwell and my grandmother was busy gossiping with her old cronies, jabbering away in rapid konkani till my loud cough managed to gain her attention and I had my fill of stale info. She's watching Ganga on t.v. right now, a bhojpuri movie starring Ravi Kissen, Nagma and Amitabh Bachan, a different dialect is somewhat appealing to her and I without a trace of remorse, guilt or shame am watching along with her.

me and u and a dog named boo

Listened to this song after such a long time. Nice one too from Lobo. Will be leaving HT soon now, editor says we can continue as freelancers. Yipee! and I desperately need to go shopping. My clothes have become ancient. Went to the Sanjay Gandhi National Park this morning, got up at six in the morning!! WWF organised a clean up of a part of the forest near the Kankeri caves, the occasion being International World Environment Day today. Went about exploring a few caves with some unwanted, unknown men though they turned out to be good guides. After panting and heaving we climbed quite a bit of mountain you see, got to see about 4 of the total 109 caves.
Wonders what it would be like to be a Buddhist monk, meditating in those creepy caves.
will put up pics later whenever I find my USB cable. Read pinku's latest post, she wore a saree...of all the things in the world, not that it's bad or a sin to wear one but when taking to consideration that it was Priyanka who did it. (rofl) and she dreamed about me too, talking about food whatelse, bum like her!
I wanna see Shrek so badly yaa now!

sunday bloody sunday

This title above is from one of U2's songs which goes by the same name
I cant believe the news today
Oh, I cant close my eyes and make it go away
How long...
How long must we sing this song?
How long? how long...

Just what I was thinking of as I read the paper this morning, another Carter Road Crash, 2 hurt. damn those assholes
Who should we blame? who can we point fingers at? those kids? their parents? peer pressure?
The 'I wanna look cool' factor?, society?, you-me? who?
can we risk more Allistair Pereira's? I think not!

Hopefully my friends agree to go to McDonalds for lunch, i want those Shrek movie toys.
