Flowers, clues and Mia!
Oh my god…I have the best friends in the WORLD! They put in SO much effort for my birthday! I feel so…special I guess! Even though it’s just once in a year, it is so nice to feel so important!
Sucheta came over yesterday with the sixth ‘Mia Thermopolis’, a top from ‘Chai’…and this HUGE bunch of flowers! I mean…it was HUGE!!! When all the flowers were taken out, its contents filled up FOUR vases! That’s a lot of flowers! There were chrysanthemums, and carnations, and orchids, and birds of Paradaise and these other really pretty ones I couldn’t even recognise!
Rati actually put me on a treasure hunt! There were basically three clues that ended up leading me to the bus stop tomorrow morning! It must have taken her AGES to write the whole last clue in mirror image! It is so sweet…I can’t believe she took all that trouble!
Hey you guys, if you are reading this…thanks! At the risk of sounding sappy – you guys are the best!

Meghna, all I can say to that is- you are so worth it! You're always there for us, and well you're just really fun to hang around with (apart from being my best friend!)!!!
Anyways, hope you did well in your dance exam...for anyone who didn't know...
MEGHNA JUST DID HER ODISSI EXAM!
And I'm glad you liked the flowers...sorry i couldn't get you those blue orchids!

Sucheta, you're definitely a better friend than I am. I actually didn't call and wish her till the 18th. Bad me. ;)
(I didn't even know you could get blue orchids. Are they dyed?)
Meghna...it's nice that you enjoyed your birthday.
You're still two years older than me. Damn.And I'm sure that you did better in your dance exam than you've been saying, hmm? I mean, you're not a klutz like me, eh?

Hehe... blue orchids exist? Hey Su, where do u get them? I got a friend whose birthday it is in December... please do let me know... Dravid inspires MATH?!!?!! What the..? is he a cricketer or some sorta diol of studious worship(and lets not get into the details of worship an all, huh... :P)?!

No Deepthi...I didnt do as badly in my exam as I thought...and evidently, neither have you!!!
YES! Blue orchids exist! They are absolutely gorgeous! And Su didnt buy em for me...Rati did! I think you get them in most stores, though they are NOT the cheapest flowers! And I wouldn't say anything not-too-complimentary about Dravid if i were you Aveek, - since Rati is likely to read it!
And Deeksha Nerd Fest...no, aparently not, or if we have been invited...I dont know about it!

Hehe... OK OK... but notice that I don't believe in God... so... and Dravid plays far too slowly... old tortiose... ok, he's nice an all... but still... and thanks for the location of the blue orchids... how much do those things cost?!
P.S. what the heck is a 'Mia'Thermopolis'??

Dravid is COOL! That's all there is to it!...and why exactly did u post the same thing thrice?!
blue orchids...cost alot! I got four for 100 bucks! AFTER bargaining! I don't know how much Rati paid tho! ;)
"Mia Thermopolis" is the book that the movie "The Princess Diaries" is based on. The movie totally ruined the book though! Not a guy thing I think...
What do u think Rati...Su?

Ah, Meghna, you have much to learn. [end grandmother mode] Movies always ruin the books.
I mean, just look at Lord of the Rings, huh?
The ghost of Tolkien has, I hear, been haunting the scriptwriters, throwing water-balloons at them and threatening to sic Sauron on them.*
*=this is a joke
