iPhone – Live Demo

iPhone combines three products — a revolutionary mobile phone, a widescreen iPod with touch controls, and a breakthrough Internet communications device with desktop-class email, web browsing, maps, and searching — into one small and lightweight handheld device. iPhone also introduces an entirely new user interface based on a large multi-touch display and pioneering new software, letting you control everything with just your fingers. It is supposed to usher in an era of software power and sophistication never before seen in a mobile device, completely redefining what you can do on a mobile phone.

Yes, we all have read and heard about it but here is the live demo of THE PHONE:

Real cool phone to have !!!

Hey I promise to be a good girl this year, so do I hear someone (I promise no pulling legs, laughing at all your PJs, however stupid and senseless they be, ooops..I take back my words) ready to gift it to me for Christmas, oh Christmas is too far off how about my B’day!! 😉

If You Love Someone……….

Well, I have always believed and still do believe that if you love someone set them free….love is like sand..the more you try to tighten your grip it will slip away at a greater rate…and ultimately you will be left with nothing in your palm except a few grains in the form of memories. OK….enough of this serious talk…actually this old quote goes something like this:

If you love someone, set them free.
If they come back they’re yours;
If they don’t they never were.
However, in today’s world, this quote finds its own MODERN VERSIONS depending on the kind of people you are:

Pessimist:
If you love someone,
Set her free …
If she ever comes back, she’s yours,
If she doesn’t, as expected, she never was

Optimist:
If you love someone,
Set her free …
Don’t worry, she will come back .
Suspicious:
If you love someone,
Set her free …
If she ever comes back, ask her why.

Impatient:
If you love someone,
Set her free …
If she doesn’t come back within some time forget her.

Patient:
If you love someone, set her free ..
If she doesn’t come back,
continue to wait until she comes back …

Playful
If you love someone,
Set her free …
If she comes back, and if you love her still,
set her free again, repeat …

C++ Programmer:
if(you-love(m_she))
m_she.free()
if(m_she == NULL)
m_she = new CShe;
Animal-Rights Activist:
If you love someone,
Set her free,
In fact, all living creatures deserve to be free!!

Lawyers:
If you love someone,
Set her free,
Clause 1a of Paragraph 13a-1 in the Second
Amendment of the Matrimonial Freedom

Biologist :
If you love someone,
Set her free,
She’ll evolve.

Statisticians :
If you love someone,
Set her free,
If she loves you, the probability of her coming
back is high
If she doesn’t, your relation was improbable
anyway.

Schwarzenegger’s fans:
If you love someone,
Set her free,
SHE’LL BE BACK!

Over possessive person :
If you love someone
don’t set her free.

MBA :
If you love someone set her free instantaneously
and look for others simultaneously

Psychologist :
If you love someone
set her free
If she comes back her super ego is dominant
If she doesn’t come back her id is supreme
If she doesn’t go, she must be crazy.

Somnambulist :
If you love someone
set her free
If she comes back it’s a nightmare
If she doesn’t, you must be dreaming

So people which category do you belong to?? Me am a romantic at heart so I still believe in the original quote!!!

A New Day Has Come

The song just describes my mood today!!! After the hell I have been through the past few days….but a talk with someone early morning..really uplifted my lousy mood and here I was humming this song.

Artist: Celine Dion

Song: A New Day Has Come

And can’t stop myself from  thanking a certain friend who supported me all through my “supposedly” tough times.

How to Catch a Lion and….Then Kill It!!

Had got this mail long time back about how to catch alion…by differnt methods..but today got a follow-up of it….how to kill the lion after catching it. Many of you must have already read it before, but still worth laughing a second time:

How to Catch a Lion

Newton’s Method:
Let, the lion catch you. For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.Implies you caught the lion

Einstein’s Method:
Run in the direction opposite to that of the lion. Due to higher relative velocity, the lion will also run faster and will get tired soon. Now you can trap it easily.

Schrodinger Method:
At any given moment, there is a positive probability that lion to be in the cage. So set the trap, sit down and wait.

Inverse Transformation Method:
Place a spherical cage in the forest and enter it. Perform an inverse transformation with respect to lion. Lion is in and you are out.

Thermodynamic Procedure:
We construct a semi-permeable membrane which allows everything to pass through except lions. Then sweep the entire forest with it.

Integration Differential Method:
Integrate the forest over the entire area. The lion is some where in the result. So differentiate the result PARTIALLY w.r.t lion to trace out the lion

Software Engineer Method:
Catch a cat and claim that your testing has proven that its a Lion. If anyone comes back with issues tell that you will upgrade it to Lion.

Indian Police Method:
catch any animal and interrogate it to accept that its a Lion.

FRUSTRATED ???

Now lets KILL the lion…

Rajnikanth Method:
Keep warning the lion that u may come and attack anytime. The lion will live in fear and die soon in fear itself.

Ramarajan Method (some Tamil actor):
Remove the make-up and put it over lion. The lion will die notwithstanding that heavy weight.

Jayalalitha Method:
Send Police commissioner Muthukaruppan around 2AM and kill it, while it’s sleeping !

Manirathnam Method (director):
Make sure the lion does not get sun light and put the lion in a dark room with a single candle lighted.Keep murmuring something in its ears. The lion will be highly irritated and commit suicide.

Karan Johar Method (director):
Send a lioness into the forest. our lion and lioness fall in love with each other. Send another lioness in to t he forest,followed by another lion. First lion loves the first lioness and the second lion loves the 2nd lioness. But 2nd lioness loves both lions. Now send another lioness(third) into the forest. You don’t understand right…ok….read it after 15 yrs, then also u wont !

Yash Chopra method (director):
Take the lion to Australia or US.. and kill it in a good scenic location.

Govinda method:
Continuously dance before the lion for 5 or 6 days.

Rahul dravid method:
Ask the lion to bowl at u. You bat for 200 balls and score 1 run.

Menaka Gandhi method:
Save the lion from a danger and feed him with some vegetables continuously.

George bush method:
Link the lion with Osama Bin Laden and shoot him.

Love Quotes for Valentine’s Day

I am among those people who don’t believe in the notion of Valentine’s Day..C’mon if you love someone you love them everyday and not a particular day and and make them feel special that too a day invented by some cards company to promote their business!! But I am a sucker for the lovely cute love quotes and have collection of those and here are a few of my favorites.

We come to love not by finding a perfect person, but by learning to see an imperfect person perfectly.

The ultimate test of a relationship is to disagree, but still hold hands.

When you realize you want to spend the rest of your life with a person, you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible.

You don’t have to love in words, because even through the silences love is always heard.

Distance, it is a test of love, many will fail, but for those who can withstand it have the answer: true love.

Find the one you can be yourself in front of, you can say anything to, you can laugh, you can smile, you can cry, scream, kiss, and hug. Y’all can fight, make up at the end of the night and he’d still be crazy about you!

Miles mean nothing when you are in love, and love means everything when you are miles apart.

When you realize you want to spend the rest of your life with a person, you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible.

If I had to choose whether to breathe or to love you,  I would use my last breath to tell you that… I love you.

When you are in Love you can’t fall asleep because reality is better than your dreams.

And what I truly believe in is “Love isn’t just for Valentine’s Day. Love should be nurtured every single day, in small meaningful ways. That is how to create a relationship that lasts throughout time.”

Lyrics of “Kuch Is Tarah” – Atif Aslam

Thought would not rite another post about Atif‘s album Doorie…but guess what my stats show that people searching for the lyrics of “Kuch Is Tarah”are coming to my site. So to help out these poor souls I had to post this. So there you go people..be happy…here are the lyrics, but first you would definitely like to give the song one hearing. It doesn’t have a video as of now..but here is the song followed by the lyrics.

Song: Kuch Is Tarah

Album: Doorie

Talking of “Kuch Is Tarah”..it is also very affectionate song, it just beautifully expresses your feelings and care for the one you love…. and want to be with always, emphasising how the pain of your loved ones cause more pain and how you could do anything to relieve them of their pain and misery…..and Atif’s voice makes it doubly soulful.

Lyrics of “Kuch Is Tarah”

Kuch is tarah teri palkein meri palkon se mila de
Aansoo tere saare meri palkon pe sajaa de

Kuch is tarah teri palkein meri palkon se mila de
Aansoo tere saare meri palkon pe sajaa de

Tu har ghadi har waqt mere saath raha hai
Haan yeh jism kabhi door kabhi paas raha hai
Jo bhi gham hain yeh tere unhein tu mera pataa de

Kuch is tarah teri palkein meri palkon se mila de
Aansoo tere saare meri palkon pe sajaa de

Mujhko toh tere chehre pe yeh ghum nahin janchta
Jaayiz nahin lagta mujhe ghum se tera rishta
Sun meri ghuzarish ise chehre se hataa se
Sun meri ghuzarish ise chehre se hataa se

Kuch is tarah teri palkein meri palkon se mila de
Aansoo tere saare meri palkon pe sajaa de

Yakeen – Another gem by Atif Aslam

I have always been a die-hard fan of soft romantic numbers and being in love has made me pine harder for these mushy songs..however over the top and sugary sweet they might be!! So had got this album “Doorie” by Atif Aslam. Honestly speaking, except for the song Doorie, I was just not very much impressed with this entire album of Doorie by Atif. The album boasted of 18 tracks but actually has just 9 😦 with remix versions of each and every one of them…so very weird, leaving me disappointed. However this weekend having too much leisure at hand gave it another chance and must say was I surprised to have missed out on 2 wonderful songs. One is “Kuch Is Tarah” and the other one being “Yakeen”. Yakeen is a gem with some amazing lyrics along with his haunting voice. Simply love it!! The video features just Atif rendering the song but the cutie he is, makes the video worth watching! So here is the video:

Video: Yakeen

Album: Doorie

Artist: Atif Aslam

and of course the soul-touching lyrics of this rendition “Yakeen“, which is so very true for me right now cos my sweetheart is away from me and am missing him like anything.

Aaj dil dukha hai
Tum yaad aaye ho
Anjaane log hain
Apne kahan dhoond paaye

Jaage hain soye nahin
Aisi hai meri yeh bechaini
Din bhi wohi, raatein wohi
Saanson mein saansein hain nahin
hmm hmmm

Shaamein ab dhalti nahin
Aanchal jo tera simat jaaye
Aap yahaan hamesha rahein
Doorie rahe na faasle
hmm hmmm

Jaage hain soye nahin
Aisi hai meri yeh bechaini
Din bhi wohi, raatein wohi
Saanson mein saansein hain nahin
hmm hmmm hmm hmmm

Ab agar tum mile toh
Itna yakeen hai
Hans denge hum toh
Rona nahin hai

The Ten Commandments of How To Get Along With People

1. Keep skid chains on your tongue; always say less than you think. Cultivate a low, persuasive voice. How you say it often counts more than what you say.
2. Make promises sparingly, and keep them faithfully, no matter what it costs.
3. Never let an opportunity pass to say a kind and encouraging word to or about somebody. Praise good work, regardless of who did it. If criticism is needed, criticize helpfully, never spitefully.
4. Be interested in others, their pursuits, their work, their homes and families. Make merry with those who rejoice; with those who weep, mourn. Let everyone you meet however humble, feel that you regard him as a person of importance.
5. Be cheerful. Don’t burden or depress those around you by dwelling on your minor aches and pains and small disappointments. Remember, everyone is carrying some kind of load.
6. Keep an open mind. Discuss but don’t argue. It is a mark of a superior mind to be able to disagree without being disagreeable.
7. Let your virtues, if you have any, speak for themselves. Refuse to talk of another’s vices. Discourage gossip. It is a waste of valuable time and can be extremely destructive.
8. Be careful of another’s feelings. Wit and humor at the other persons expense are rarely worth it and may hurt when least expected.
9. Pay no attention to ill-natured remarks about you. Remember, the person who carried the message may not be the most accurate reporter in the world. Simply live so that nobody will believe them. Disordered nerves and bad digestion are a common cause of back-biting.
10. Don’t be too anxious about the credit due you. Do your best, and be patient. Forget about yourself, and let others remember. Success is much sweeter that way.

If you love someone tell them!

Being an introvert I had always kept my feelings and emotions to myself. Very closed kind of person. Never had a bestfriend in life ..well in other words me myself was my best friend. However,life has its own ways…. I was destined to meet someone with whom I could share all my secrets, good experiences as well as bad ones, things important and trivial. Someone who takes time to listen and truly listens when I have something to say. And in course of time don’t know when fell in love cos it doesn’t take a reason to love someone. You don’t love someone because you want to, you love someone because you are destined to. It’s because you fall in Love with them, that you then try to find a reason, but you always come up with the answer, No Reason!

Initially was very apprehensive as to how tell him. What if he says no, what if after that I lose that I already had with that person. That day when I couldnt take it anymore..I finally made my feelings known to him…and the response being in the negative landed with hurt and pain.

But then with time…which will be 4 days..to be precise someone felt that whatever I had confessed was not a one-sided affair …rather…the feelings were reciprocal. And the moment he realised that, he too did not lose time to express his feelings. So the lesson I learnt is that if you love someone tell them you do. If you do, they might break your heart..but if you dont you might break theirs. Do not deny your feelings for someone because of the fear of rejection would be too hard to handle.

Once in a lifetime you find a person who touches not your heart but also your soul. And once in a lifetime if you are lucky you find someone as I have found my love. I never felt a love like this before. It’s a love like ….. no other…something I have always hoped for. A love with friendship, humour and heart. It’s a bond so strong and I just hope it never parts!!

Love is like magic and it always will be.
For love still remains life’s sweet mystery!!
