Be gregarious or be a waitor! i choose....

Yeah..how can I forget blogging on my cousins visit...?I promised that I'd do a -"xyz cousins,hai!hai!" here..
Not that I don't like them,it's only that they came late..ah..long story..it's only that they came when I didn't want them?;P ah..coz they didn't come when i needed them..neither did I go..so what? huhh!

what i wanna say is-if they didn't need me then..since 20 big years..then why do they want me now?Oh ok..you expect me to cry..rant on this..??forget it..
***khee khee***

The night of my last exam..my mom came elated saying-"..oh they are coming..do you know who all are coming?"
My face changed the color and I asked-"some ones coming..??who all are coming?"
My alien cousin was coming to get coached on how to crack IELTS...and along with her came my aunt..and another aunt and cousins(not alien ones).. :P
And what this all meant was..work!work and work!
I uttered a - "Oh no....!" what? I am not a complete recluse..but Am I supposed to serve the guest,work work..on my first holiday..??After all the hard work..exhaustion of a two week and a half...No!!

And all the cleaning and dusting embarked,at the night itself,in fact the moment she informed us that they'd be arriving,she gave a bunch of instructions..do this..do that..Poor moi!write exams and come do labor! huhh!

I don't know why mom goes a complete crazy,when some ones to come home...Cook cook..cook..
as if they never ate.. And are hungry..since donno..how long decades.. :P
And seeing Ma Pa joins her too..duhh!but I never did..and would neither do..I believe in feed the poor and hungry..rather over stuffing the mighty.

I watched and watched as Ma kept passing me the trays..I am not kanjoosh!!this all was not necessary..right?they would survive with out a sweet dish,every time they sit on the dinning table..? No? :P

And then started the Hyderabad dekho..program..
They said "lets go to the Golconda fort.."
Mom obviously nodded and I intervened "Mom humz aint home yet..you ppl go!!enjoy!!have fun.."(humz=my potter sis)
enjoy!have fun..means I am declaring that ..i don't wanna come.Mum took me aside and said "they don't come regularly..ok?You don't have to act smart..get ready quickly.."
Poor moi..couldn't do any thing..I had to go..
And..I kinda enjoyed it..climbing all the stairs..haww!I burnt few calories at least ;)
What all it was -snaps!snaps! and snaps..

I really get annoyed when I am interrupted,every moment-go get this....pass this..to her..serve her..aur dalo..aur dalo..at the dinning table than eating peacefully,so I preferred being a waiter and did a full time waiter job,as long as they were at my place..

U must be thinking..how anti-social element I am..yes..I am..!I have been like this..since I was born..what can i do?I was born like this..duhh!Not my mistake..

I remember this,funny thing..we went to a fruit juice center,and every one ordered their favorites,me and a few of them ordered mosambi..it was yakkk!!eeks!!(look I don't even have words to describe its yakkiness! :P)I was sweating..and my throat going all dry.. I drank it..zip..zip..all I wanted was some thing to clear my throat and mom and the others were planning to return it..and ask for a new one,in place of that..poor hawker!!they did..and they drank..!huhh!

And after a few days,they went off..and happy ending...what else..and yaa...I lost my money in housie and also lost at cards...looser!

And..look did I do a hai hai here??nahhhh.....no?

Lol read this one cause you linked it in your latest post. I know how it is, people coming over all the time and not giving a break. In those times all I wanted was to escape upstairs and read books or nap or watch something. Was never allowed to though. Hehe! You're writing style totally changed. It became ironed out like a malmal ka dupatta.
