END-ZONED

There's A Pretty Fine Chick
With A Bag Full Of Tricks
She Drives Me Insane And Love-Blind
She Canoodles With Pricks
Quite Simply, For Kicks
She's Dreadfully Out Of Her Mind

There's A Hundred Names Scrawled On Her Chest
And Now She's A Heart-Throb Away From The Next

She Falls Head Over Heels
For A Sleazeball on Wheels
And Gives Him Much More Than Her Heart
She Thinks He's A Great Deal
"Plus He's Got Sex Appeal"
But This One Was Doomed From The Start

She Laments Falling Prey To His Charms
And Now She's A Heartache Away From My Arms

I Lend Her My Shoulder
I Try To Get Closer
And Join Her In Cursing The Cheat
I Comfort And Hold Her
I Hug And Console Her
And Help Her Get Back On Her Feet

I'm Surprised At The Way Life's Unfurled
Coz Now She's A Heartstring Away From My World

And Soon We Get Talking
Old Habits We're Knocking
We're Settling Our Woes With High-Fives
At Parties We're Rocking
She's Popping, I'm Locking
We're Having The Time Of Our Lives

I've Been Patiently Playing My Part
And Now She's A Heartbeat Away From My Heart

Then One Day I Called Her
To Tell Her I Love Her
But I Guess She Could Not Comprehend
Coz She Burst Out In Laughter
And Called Me A Prankster
"Cut It Out, You're My Best Friend"

Yeah She Tells Me That I'm Just A Friend
I'm heartbroken And This Is The End

The End...

‘CUPIDEST’ WAYS TO ASK YOUR CRUSH OUT ON VALENTINE’S

http://cupidgames.closeup.in/

Valentine’s Day is fast approaching. For young parents like me whose kids’ birthdays fall in the month of November, this day can make you feel real nostalgia…*ahem…wink*. For younger people, this day offers a great excuse to ask your crush out, and a wonderful opportunity to get away with subtle advances. For those who are really religious, it is an occasion to attend mass at the nearest Church and pray for St. Valentine’s soul which might definitely be experiencing grave unrest as we speak.

So, you came here looking for some real ‘kewl’ ways to ask your crush out on Valentine’s Day. From the perspective of a young parent like me, the best Valentine’s Day possible would be your toddler allowing you to stick to your planned schedule, and finding time to have a quiet dinner somewhere without running behind baby with a bib and a bowl of baby-food. For youngsters, on the other hand, the world is your laboratory to try out anything you like (as long as it does not violate the Indian Penal Code…haha…‘Penal’ ;) )

Presenting some decent/bold/funny/classy ways (depending on your personality, traits and mental balance) to ask your crush out on a date, and some important caveats. Try them out at your own risk, and please remember that we DID NOT have this conversation:-

1. Book two tickets for a movie/concert/Carnatic music recital beforehand and tell your crush that you have an extra ticket. Make sure though that your target relates to the event, or you’ll have to give those tickets out to your friend and his date, for free. Do not give your crush both the tickets, or someone else will be going on a date with him/her at your expense.
2. After a long and tiring day at college, assuming you are college students and have to attend college on Saturdays (poor you :p), ask your crush if he/she wanted a free back massage/head massage/foot rub, and so on. If they comply, you could pop in your question and hope you get a Yes. Of course, if he/she agrees to both propositions, you’re a winner all the way. If he/she agrees only for the free service, you still have your personal ‘touch’ to flaunt. Some of you might lose on both counts, so brace yourselves for the eventuality of weird suspecting and disgusted stares for the rest of your lives.
3. A V-Day card can be real cliché, if it doesn’t have some added flavour. If you make it all yourself – the card cutting, images, sketching, lettering, poems, et al -  maybe you can score with him/her. Don’t try the ‘khoon se likh raha hu, syaahi mat samjhna’ stunt, lest you end up in prison for stalking.
4. Go on a group date maybe, where there are equal number of boys and girls, and everyone goes around in pairs. He/she won’t suspect anything amiss, and maybe after you had a great time, you can let him/her know that you felt it from within. Make sure you don’t have dumb friends who keep giving you the ‘I know what’s going on’ and giggly look from time to time.
5. Go on an adventure sports trip in a group. Try to set yourself up with your sweets for a couple sport like sky-diving (how you ask? Go figure yourself, nothing in life comes served on a platter). In mid-flight, scream your lungs out into his/her ears about how you feel about him/her (you’ll need to scream, the air pressure on your ears while descending makes it hard to hear). Maybe the thrill of the moment, or pure delusion will make him/her ‘subscribe to your scheme’. Make sure you activate the primary and/or secondary parachute at the right time and altitude, lest you miss out on your date and other possible action.

So there you are, choose your option. Let's see if you lie to tell your tale.
