A very different weekend

This weekend ended up being very different from what I do really. I mean it was actually productive and I didn’t fret over any girl. First friday night I didn’t go out and have fun. Instead I banged my head on the keyboard while Nero decided it will fuck up my Win x64. However, I did manage to get it fixed by 10 pm.

Saturday I was in most of the day as I was on call at work. I did plan on cleaning up while I do the wait, but it just never really happened. However, after all that work-wait-call stuff, I did go out shoot a few pool balls and had a hearty chat with one of my favourite couples :) Sunday, following the trend for rest of the weekend, was completely different from what I’m used to. To start off I wasn’t really lazy! I actually got up and cleaned up my place. I mean everything from laundry to dishes and scrubing to vacumming. Shocking, no?

If that wasn’t enough, I actually got together with a friend of mine and we made some progress on one of the projects we were planning. Behold “Desher Mati Tane Amai”. It’s not really original, so we can’t take all the credit. It is however a remix of the original done by Caffiene. Sorry for all the non-Bangla speaking folks. You won’t understand it, but you can check out the music :)

Girls as friends

I realize that a bunch of the girls will want to defend this one (may be) but I would like to lay the cards on the table from my point of view. Talking with a friend of mine the other day I was saying how I miss having a girl around in my life. How they really makes you put things in a different perspective and all. I went as far as to tell him that even with all my friends around I really miss the girls I used to hang out with as things were just different with them. It’s not like I was going out with any of these girls. They were all my friends, but yet it’s always different than hanging out with the guys.

Now here’s the problem having girls as friends. Well it’s not a major problem really. It’s not like we stop being friends or anything, but yet it’s there; lurking in the background waiting to happen. I don’t know about others but with me and girls it all starts with talking and they we start hanging out and having fun. And then all of a sudden you have more and more options of hanging out and having fun. And things are kept crystal clear that the freindship is just great and no one is really hitting on the other. But then the inevitable happens. No matter their age and the level of the friendship it happens.

They get hooked. Which by itself is not the problem, but it’s just that getting hooked has inevitable circumstances. They have to give more time to that significant other. And may be it’s just my luck and now that couple doesn’t want to really hang out with this poor single bastard. Now, I’m sure it isn’t like it for all but it is with the most I have know. They just disappear – slowly but surely. What starts with just reduced talking time ends up becoming a thing in the past. It’s weird, really. I mean it’s not like I was trying to get them away from their boys, but yet it’s almost like that. Whatever happened to those fun conversations?
