when u want to forget something, when u want to erase it from ur life or at least shove it to the deepest parts of ur mind so that it doesn’t surface agn, why is it these memories are the ones that keep jumping right to the top of ur head and keep playing itself over an over agn???? No matter how long ago its been, days, weeks, months…just when u think u’ve forgotten it, the littlest things seem to trigger it agn…a sight…a sound… the brain is a weird thing don’t u think, its like it has a will of its own at times, the things u want to remember it forget (studies being a good example =P ) and then the things which u wanna forget it remembers for the longest period of time…
It just makes life that much harder to go through ….. it makes it harder to move forward with
“When someone is in your heart, they’re never truly gone. They can come back to you, even at unlikely times”. It’s a nice thought if u want to remember someone I guess, but what if u don’t, what if remembering that person just brings u more heartache than joy??
Sigh well I guess some things we just cant control….
You know that saying time heals all wounds, wouldn’t it be better if it were a tad more specific… like exactly how much time are we talking about here ???? seconds..minutes…hours…days…months…years???????????
Btw if 4 different ppl tagged me does it mean I got to do that tag thing 4 times ah ?? oh well im in no mood to do it today…maybe tomorrow…
Im sure some of u out there wanna know how my trip went… boy are u ppl in for a earful… ok first lets start off with where I went….the itinerary went as follows:
Let me say overall the places we ( Taran, Ruben, Lembu and Me) went and visited, i.e. The monuments, the sights, etc.etc were nice and some were beautiful and magnificent BUT… now bear in mind this is my opinion and no offence meant to anyone..but I think the whole experience was really just spoilt by the ppl here… they made the trip frustrating and annoying….to quote someone “the places we go to is nice but as soon as we step outside it just becomes annoying” …. The auto drivers, the so called authorized guides, the ppl selling stuff on the roadside and even the hotel ppl all of them are out to squeeze out every rupee every paise they can from u…. it was up to the point I actually felt like everywhere u turn in this country there is someone trying to cheat u… some of u may think aiiyah ur a foreigner traveling around what!!! Sure lah kena cheat a bit, happens everywhere….well let me tell u at certain times they actually thought we were locals (lembu wasn’t arnd, oh and these tempes all keep thinking lembu is Japanese…hehehe) and yet they still try to jack us…see even their own fellow countrymen aren’t spared…
Let me give some examples just to make it clear:
1) the auto drivers will never fail to NOT use the meter, they will then proceed to jack up the price to ridiculous amounts, and the fucked up thing is if ur taking the auto from like an auto stop, they all listen to the price each other is giving and they all either just say the same price or jack it up further…so u either walk or fork out the cash.
2) Agn the auto/taxi drivers….tell them a certain place and ask them if they know where it is…they will say yes yes….then low and behold half way on the ride the idiot will turn arnd and ask where is the place cus he doesn’t know…. Dumb ass we’re the foreigners and ur the local and ur asking us…bloody annoying…if u don’t know the plc just say it from the start, saves everyone a shit load of time…
3) The annoying guides at all the tourist spots….now if someone tells u I don’t want a guide u don’t have to stalk the person, give it up for heaven sakes if I didn’t want a guide when u first asked me im not going to want a guide if u ask me agn 2 seconds later….. and some of these guides are sooooo bloody annoying u feel like punching them in the face….one asshole (after we refused his services) actually tried threatening us saying he would make problems for us and we wont be able to enter, and he actually tried, such an ass, I so wanted to turn arnd and flip him off as we were entering (yeah we managed to enter despite his attempts to not let us)
4) the tour guide on the tour bus…. Now if ur a tour guide on a tour bus, which u know has foreigners…fucking speak in english for goodness sake… not everyone in the world speaks hindi…its nota a worldwide language….u know these ppl are really stupid some time…take for example lembu….they all know his a foreigner but they talk to him in hindi....
those are just a few of the annoying things we had to deal with…I know its not really that bad in small doses…but when u have to keep dealing with it over and over and over… having to argue with these ppl all through the trip, it gets tiring and annoying and frustrating….
Now im sure not everyone in this country is like that..dont get me wrong im not referring to everyone,…just those that I had the unfortunate privilege of meeting on this trip…. Maybe they do this cus of the level of poverty here, I understand that, but it doesn’t make it any less annoying… a little advice, if u treat the foreigners nicely they will actually come back again and u will get even more money that you would strangling it out of them!!
*breath in breath out* fuuuuuuuuuuu
Ok..enough with the bitching… to summarize it all up… im glad I experienced this once at least I can say I did it but there is no way in hell im going to do this agn…
