get your ass in here!!!
shocked? hehhe.........i like it though. its a sign written on one of the bars here, called twisted poke.
i see it so many days , and every tme i pass it, i never once forget to read the sign and smile at myself. so American. kind of things we always imagined it would be. i like the attitude though.
the place is one stretch of bars and the weekend portrait of people spilling all over and unbelievable long ques, so unsightly here. people going crazy to step in the happening bars, that are more open now with summer, have removed the glass panes and people swarm in to socialise. life of singles amd so many others.
people in all shapes and sizes, lovely dresses and bursting energy. i cant help but like it, though am not that social and not much such life. i prefer the quite one.
it is perhaps the life we associate america with. the halters and the shorts , the dresses that we have longed to have and dont have places to wear. so like hollywood movies, people getting drunk and rarae sights of couples kissing. its all there.
i still get excited to see, what i once saw in Tv. i dont realise, it is suddenly apart of me now. i ahve friends who are a part of it. few days back when i went to the beach, just for a stroll, i couldnt shut up seeing people walking in bikinis. i have never seen one back home.....not that u wont find one, i just didnt happen to cross one.
its so stupid though, silly, kiddish...but i still find it thrilling. a life which i have never been a witness to. i love the long drives, i like the nights. cant help skipping the roadside fountains that seem to burst open at night to water the side walk grasses. its automatic and timed. they just whoosh up with water everyday and just go off so unnoticed.
simple but diffrent.....i still cant forget an article i read in voices(statesman) years back. the gril from a small town and a new student in delhi suddenly finds herself at odds seeing people with every kind of make up at colleg, and later in the article she mentions i dont find it odd any more, because now i am a part of it.
kind of my feelings. am still amazed at so many things. more i see, more caught up i get. so before i traet them as they are supposed to be , why not keep the emotions and days for myself to be read later, when i am all part of it.
