About a boy

  • He and I are worlds apart. He's patient, I'm jumpy. He's quiet, I'm chatty. As Raam Pyari would say - he's the sensible types, I'm the crackpot types. :/
  • He's a geeky nerd. And a nerdy geek. :/
  • He's smarter than me. :/
  • He's into programming languages. :/
  • He still laughs at the funny red sports shoes I used to have in university years ago, and gleefully describes them to everyone. :/
  • In the last 8 years that I have been friends with him, I have told him about all of my 3 million crushes, but he has only told me of 3 (of which I am one). :/
  • He's way fitter than me. :/
  • He spends his entire weekend playing cricket. :/
  • He gets a new injury at cricket every weekend. :/
  • He always forgets to put on sunscreen during his cricket matches and turns up for dinner looking like a bhoot. :/
  • He works very late hours. :/
  • He is too tall, even for my highest heels. :/
  • He keeps insisting that SRK and Karan Johar are a couple, just to bug me. :/
  • He wants the computer whenever I am blogging. :/
  • He doesn't get haircuts on time. :/
  • He begins sentences and doesn't end them. :/
  • He comes up with weird nicknames for my colleagues. :/
  • He claims to be a cook but he can make only one dish. :/
  • He insists that the only earrings that look good on me are the little silver studs because he gave me those millions of years ago. :/
  • He chides me for being careless with money. :/
  • His PJs are worse than mine (I know it's hard to believe). :/
  • He woos my cousins over with ten-minute phone conversations, and then they tell me that they like him more than they like me. :/
  • He sings the wrong lyrics of Hindi songs and actually makes them sound correct. :/
  • He never turns up anywhere on time. :/
  • He makes me miss Hindi movie trailers. :/
  • He sleeps in Hindi movies, and then suddenly wakes up and says "Kya hua? Kya hua??" :/
  • He irritates me, grins and then says "I irritate you so much na?" :/
But in spite of all this - he is the only guy who totally gets me.

And that's why he gets me. :)

Anonymous said...

I've been reading your blog for a while-- just wanted to congratulate you!! You should tell us your story with the boy, not just stuff about him.
You are wonderful writer Sayesha and I wish you happiness and joy. Keep writing though!

Deeps said...

He completes you {draws a heart in mid-air} :)). Hehehehe :).

Sakshi said...

Awwwwwww.. Such a sweet post. I don't know this guy and I like him :)
My infernal curiousity is satisfied...
And I will not bug you for more... Who am I kidding.. I probably will :)
Happy Holidays!
Ps. Just of curiosity.. were you going to match the iPOD to your saree? It should be OK if it goes with your dress, na?

Anonymous said...

His PJs are worse than mine

Anonymous said...

Now that I think of it, I was satisfied with too little! :D

I second this photo idea and how come no one's asking for a name??

Or am I the only one who doesnt know the name? :/

Hoping to squeeze this lil piece of info from you ;)..

"...Ruk teri baari aane de! :D"

Anusha said...

Sash, careful. One mention of the guy, and people are starting to get more interested in him! ;) [Waise toh, I wouldn't mind the guest post either - *ducks* -curiosity, dahling! Can watch him make a fool of himself, what say? :D]

Very very cute post, btw. Opposites attract, indeed. :)

chal tu bhi kya yaad rakhegi...2 mahine kaa time diya...shaadi ke fotus hi daal dena ;-)

waise congratulations to you from a friend of mine who is a not-so-frequent visitor to ur blog...guess she also trying to remain anon in the blogosphere :-)

qsg said...

He sounds like such a nice guy! :) Yes, a guest post is an extremely great idea. Photos required.

Kala teeka from me too! Best of luck girl... :)

....I have to say this - another one bites the dust!

Sorry, couldn't resist it! :D

u0201535 said...

I like the bit about being irritating.

In Singlish, one would go 'I very illitating hor?' For added effect, really draw out the 'hor', like 'hooooor?'

I suspect 'na' works in much the same way.

chanakya said...

hey congrats to both of u.
Havent been here quiet a long time.
I rather wait for ur post on how the marriage goes the ceremony etc:D
I quiet think it will compete against greatbongs experience.

Iday said...

//Guest post?? From him?? Hahahaha! C++ mein likhega! :D
Oh - i can help explain that to everyone around. I'm sure there are others who can do it as well.

Waise, jus let the guy post :)

Siddhu said...

Wow, Sayesha!!

Why is it everybody I know -- in r/l or in the blogworld -- is getting married. Am I growing old? :P (Like that budhdha Uncle in my flat warned me against the day before. :P )

Cheers!!! :)

Angelsera said...

#Iday,
Yeah man... let's see. I'm just as curious as you guys! :)
ps: OMG!! RGV has lost it! :O

#Siddhu,
Thanks! :)

//Am I growing old? :P

Yes. :P

#Angelsera,
Oh achha! Was Jagga there too? Btw, what's his real name?? :O

//I bet he is grinning away reading all this

Oh boy you have no idea. I think the last time he was this happy was when he managed to write a 37-line C++ code in 35 lines! :D

#Sudipta,
Hahahah! Yeah! :) Thanks for the wishes! :)

#Thisisme,
Ruko baba... like I said in the post na.. he works very late... lagta hai weekend ka intzaar karna padega :)
