This will be a whiney sort of post so anyone who drops in looking for a light laugh at the end of the day or the beginning (if you happen to be reading this in the middle of all the pending work you're all always busy with) this would be a good time to retreat. Yes, that's the close window button right there and all you have to do is quickly look at your watch and go uuhhm, I got an appointment in ten minutes, really have to run now and make a dash for it. Do it now, while you still have the time or else be prepared for a tale of unspeakable woe.

Of course if you do seriously twiddle your thumbs and dash off pretending to look embarrassed at leaving me amidst all my sorrow be warned I will hunt you down *one by one* and leave nasty comments on your blogs...

*Ahem*, not that I insist you hang around and listen to me whine or anything like that. I wouldn't dream of emotionally blackmailing you into giving me sympathy or anything like that. Of course if you're still reading because you luurbh me so much *bat bat* I luuurbh you all too. *And anyone who so much as smiles through the rest of the post, be warned this is not meant to be a laugh-athon, the blog-sphere is not invited to laugh at my misery hmph*

I sigh, I weep, I swim distractedly from corner to corner of my virtual fish bowl and howl mournfully for a lost friend...sniff....yes you heard me right...Cassandra loves me no more......sneef sneef....this is a moment of sad realization and much pathos....*deep sigh*
*not that miss mortmain reads this blog anymore but if she happens to be sniggering on reading this woman I am most terribly hurt, and because hell hath no fury like a class mate spurned I will let the whole blog world know about how you have broken my heart and then jumped up and down on the pieces to the tune of Kajra re!!!*

If my gentle reader can bear to dwell on the scene of distressing heart-break I shall clutch my bleeding-beating-broken heart *metaphorically speaking of course* and tell you my sad tale...but first, let me wipe away my tears....*heart rending sigh*

So, there I was.
Feeling somewhat unwell, morose, a little low on life.
Endless day at college, all the load of studies not studied and papers not yet papered...ah well.....the little traumas that fill the life of us endlessly tortured students.
And I happened to mention to my once beloved cassandra..."I'm not feeling well".
And with a callous shrug of her shoulders came the answer that has left shattered pieces of my heart on the corridors of the department "I don't care!"

This then is my twagic tale...shudder all ye who have read and beware of fwiends who backstab at the end of thwee and a half years of endless hours spent over all the little things that build ever-lasting friendships like old-english translations and raped locks and erm such like things.....*sigh*....unhappy is the I.....

Post Blog Script : This is the disclaimer of sorts in fine print that's going to save my skin when miss. mortmain finishes reading this post and heads towards my house with woman-slaughter on mind...erm...cassy, remember how you said I haven't mentioned you on my blog in ages, well how's this, an entire post ALL about *you*....
*sheepish grin*
You did know I was kidding right?

RIGHT?

aaaaaargh!!!!
haaalp, she's gonna kill me!!!!!!!!!!

Miss Mortmain sounds like a very sensible person. How do you manage to land up with all these stellar friends (me being the first and the best one, of course) in spite of yourself? In other news, I had a mid-semester presentation for my visual studies final thesis and as much as I was apprehensive about it, turned out that there were so many more people who had absolutely no idea what they were doing, that in comparison, mine seemed absolutely complete. *sigh of relief* I have sound recording software on my beautiful and glorious mac now and soon you shall be able to hear my beautiful voice in the privacy of your own room while paying only the local telephone bill for the computer connection rather than an international call, so that your dad doesn't need to get mad at you. I am so considerate, no? Although, if he knows it's me you're calling, then he obviously won't mind, since I am special.

you're lucky cassandra is too busy contemplation suicide,dropping out of college and following her mother's advice in becoming a caterer's assistant to bother considering murder.

Poorna Banerjee said...

"Of course if you do seriously twiddle your thumbs and dash off pretending to look embarrassed at leaving me amidst all my sorrow be warned I will hunt you down *one by one* and leave nasty comments on your blogs.."- MY HANDS ARE ITCHING! BY ALL MEANS, YOU ARE MOST WELCOME!

"as smiles through the rest of the post, be warned this is not meant to be a laugh-athon, the blog-sphere is not invited to laugh at my misery hmph"- AHAHAHAHAHAHAA!... AAAAAAHHAAHAAAHAAA!

"mortmain finishes reading this post and heads towards my house with woman-slaughter on mind..."
THE ONLY THINGS SHE MIGHT HAVE ON MIND ARE TAKING A LITTLE BHANG AND LAUGHING HER HEAD OFF!!!!

"aaaaaargh!!!!
haaalp, she's gonna kill me!!!!!!!!!!"- I WISH HER LUCK... WITH THE BHANG THAT IS....

the whole post sounded very Lemony Snicketish really.... of course too many digressions ruined it a it i think... do all literature students like to ponder over something this trivial and convert it into a mountain of irony and 'woe'?? not that i should talk......

Poorna Banerjee said...

jaded said...

So when's the funeral, people? Babelfish is gone but does that mean that we wont go to her funeral. Miss all the nice Bengali food?No way
[I am kidding.Honest.]

jaded said...

Poorna Banerjee said...

P.s. I have something in my blog that just might rejuvenate babelfish... care to look, even though studies are killing us all???

death said...

much ado about nothing really. this is a mockery of pain. and hardly funny.

but you do write well. use your talent more respectfully.

babelfish said...

pippy : "Lemony Snicketish"...indeed?!

rogue : I bow and thank ye kind rogue :D

panu : a) heee heee to you too
b)rotten to the core I might be but *bblf* is a nickname I can do without.. with a username like yours dahling I'm sure you can figure out why :D
c) your blog has been noted...with great interest, shall we say :)

ron : *looong* is never a problem but with you I seem o be at a dead end for nasty :)

karuna : *sigh* You'll be up for nasty comments soon o jazzy one!! :D

hdpal : I shall keep rawking and hope you keep visiting :D

lance : post up :) I am not rotten semi-decomposed fish yet!

jaded : crazy yes, but all is cool. And you'd be invited to the funeral honey, how could I forget you :D

death : Thank you for visiting and for the comment. But clarifications seem to be in order. This is how I write, talent or not, this is me and won't change. I'm not sure why you use the word respectfully but my deal is I don't write serious unless it comes from somewhere deep within; in all these months I've posted dead seriously maybe five times or less, each time it was something I could not hold back. For the same reason, I don't write serious poetry. Ever. Deliberately and consciously.
This wasn't meant to be a mockery of pain, I've been through my share of minor sorrows bordering on emotional trauma I almost couldn't deal with. Right now and this blog just doesn't happen to be the space for me to display all my scars.
This is a blog veering between madness and civilization and I'm a fish who's lost her religion. Irrelevant and irreverant I will always be. :D
I hope you come back, even if you disagree with the mood of my posts :)
