Jhora Smriti

Jhora paatar brishti nemechhe aaj,

Mon shudhay "O majhi, niye jabe mo re?"

Majhi bole "Chole ja pora kopali,

Obaddho mon k bedhe rakh dhore"

Jhora paatar brishti nemechhe aaj,

Jaay badhon o chokkhu-lojja shore.

Khuje beray papishtho dui chokh,

Shei smriti daar, boshonter e krore.

Sheidin, jokhon chole elam ami,

Kedechhilo mon, kadeni e aankhi.

Aaj abar sheet shesher bhore,

Mone pore shei lukono kotha baki.

Emon e ek bikel belay shedin,

Biday nilam tomar theke aami,

Tarpor shikhlam koto jibon dhadha,

Koto ghor-patch, jukti-kotha daami.

Tokhon e hothat, o shamne eshe daray

Aami boli  " ki holo o re?"

Uttore shey koy "Janla bondho koro Maa,

Jhora paatar brishti elo jore"

Star has got no other movie to showcase on weekends  = P

This one movie that gets Mommy's look of disgust every alternate week = D

And I watch this for the umpteenth time = )

And you thought this post would make sense? = D 

Ah him Oh him
ufffff HIM

The date was 15th of February 2008
The first day of our Madhyamik exam.
I still remember Maa, who was extra early, extra punctual, extra casual (fake try) on that day, even took a month long leave from work, before my exam.  I got princess treatment throughout!
The first paper was Bangla 1
Satabdi and I came out first from Gokhale, our examination center.
We laughed out loud when we saw anxious and worried and surprised= weird look on Maa's and Aunty's face, as if we have miraculously survived something which we were not supposed to.

Random Auntys and Uncles hovered with 'kemon holo' and 'kemon holo'. We decided to carefully avoid the news people who were pouncing upon any bakra out from the first day of Madhyamik.

 Few years down the line I will probably wait with outside one such school with mazaa and the same funny face.

While coming home the rj was talking to some student's Mommy whose Madhyamik started today. She was literally freaking out. I looked at Maa and smiled.
How I wish I had those 3 extra marks which I did not get
*sigh*
And All the best everyone :)

Bridezilla!

In another life
I would make you stay
So I don't have to say
You were the one that got away

Ki shundor baba-meye chhobi

The first boshonto shower :)

The first brishti of the year is here.
I have always believed that it WILL rain whenever you are much too happy or much too sad
Happy brishti everyone
Go get drenched

Let the rain take you in
Let the rain do the rest
Let it RAIN
Today, yet again

*JHORuthechhe*

Happy Valentines Day everyone... writes a very happy me with a mouthful of chocolate from Mommy

Thy loving smile will surely hail

The love gift of a fairytale

-Lewis Carrol

F is for PHUN and S is for PSYCHO

Of making parents proud

She studied for almost 14 hours the day before exam, had serious temper tantrums, faced very many disappointments and finally topped!

Debjani Chakraborty, my Debjani made Aunty (her momma that is) cry with joy today... Her narration of how happy she is and how proud she has made her parents (probably for the first time EVER) made me numb!

I still remember how in-spite of scoring 88% in Madhyamik, having an engineer dada from JU, she took up Humanities ( a rare thing in our mad rat race), how I always thought she had more courage than I did.

I, as a matter of fact, am a bad daughter.

Gone are the nursery days of " Yay ami bhalo marks peyechhi" 

With a WBJEE rank of 42369

And with PAILAN

How I wish I could someday make Maa proud 

TOO

My usual dramas apart

'Jaani' I am very very proud of you

And am very happy too

Here is the blog

God Bless

Ami School Jabo

Kutu had an amazing trip
And I suddenly am jealous
It just feels like yesterday when I had similar exited sleepless nights, early mornings and amazing picnic wala days

The yellow turned green walls where I once entered in a blue and white apron and finally left draped in a saari, today stands just the way it always did, at its prettiest best!
Those yellow bricks had me and I have always been head over heels in love with those green walls

For the woman I was, I almost am and shall be, for the friends and the memories and THE picnics
I love you.

D-H-U-R

Symptom- constant "BHALLAGCHHENA"

Name of the disease- Odhik er shomoshsha (as baba puts it)

Medicine- Paulo Coelho

Instant remedy- 12 hours of ghum straight

Beyond that wall you see,

My world resides.

They know my language there,

The bridge, the station, the dock, the river side.

They wait till I reach home,

I watch as her wet hair dries,

Where silly and sexy smiles are gifted,

And happy tears we cry.

Behind this wall you see,

I reside.

Where the clock strikes 11

And the cold food arrives.

The busy town runs ahead,

The lone smoke fills in the sky,

The dark room takes me in

And I cry I cry I cry.
