CHOWKI
No, its not a Chinese profanity....its the name of an Indian restaurant in Soho, which in my opinion has pretty good Indian cuisine despite the wee portions...decor is simple and cosy but environment is rather noisy with the contant chatter of other customers and waiters...was my 1st time there and the onli reason i chose it was bcos of a positive review i read online...and it was pretty accurate...my companion liked the place almost immediately...good enuff fer me!...
Its been a week since my last blog and loads of things have happened so far...but shud i pour out everything or retain some info?...since startin this blog last year, i still havent decided if my blog is personal of public...there are some details which i deem private and choose not to publish here...but then again, i started this blog as an outlet to vent my frustrations, likes, dislikes, and experiences...i must say this blogging business is a really good form of releasing tension...typing here is way better than getting physical...even tho i sometimes use the gym for that reason...blogs are also brilliant because u'd never know who is reading it...i'd like to think that somewhere out there, a person identifies with my experiences and is encouraged by my words...wouldnt it be brilliant if ur blog gave someone hope in this cruel and senseless world?...
Maybe im being abit dramatic but its possible...life is so short and unpredictable...seasons come and go, waters stir, beneath the earth shakes, and lives on the surface are lost everyday...yet we contantly take for granted our abilities, posessions, and people we care about...i woke up this morning and the 1st thing i did was look out the window...i was greeted by the clear sky and piercing sunlight...thank God for it!...but then not everyday is a bright and shiny experience...
Take for example relationships between men and women...full of highs and lows...oh dont forget pains and pleasures...ive had my fair share of these concoctions...and many a time ive been knocked off my bar stool...wat is it about relationships that causes these reactions?...why do we struggle to get back on the stool onli to be knocked off again?...is it possible to have a wonderful meal wit someone u really like without saying a single word?...can the silence be muted with deep rooted feelings for each other as they take each bite?...is it possible to reach that level of understanding between 2 individuals?....is that love?....what i'd give to experience it...
I guess thats wat i wanted during dinner at chowki...how i wish!...but then humans beings are inclined to be ignorant and selfish...we sometimes blame others for their lack of expression or actions when we ourselves never give a thought or effort into the relationship...many a time we feel so much but try to mask it with a false facade of empty words and faceless expressions...why isit we expect more from the other when we hardly give of ourselves?...thinking about it is like a hangover...waking up and remembering nothing of the night before, and all that remains is a bitter taste in your mouth...i dont want hangovers...i want what every other person wants...just to love and be loved...
For the person i had so many meals with, for the days and nites out, and for way u look at me...it never fails to create a minor cardiac arrest...lyrics that express all i fail to say and do...
Don't stray, don't ever go away
I should be much too smart for this
You know it gets the better of me
Sometimes, when you and I collide
I fall into an ocean of you, pull me out in time
Don't let me drown, let me down
I say it's all because of you
And here I go, losing my control
I'm practising your name so I can say it to your face
It doesn't seem right, to look you in the eye
Let all the things you mean to me
Come tumbling out my mouth
Indeed it's time to tell you why
I say it's infintely true
CHORUS:
Say you'll stay, don't come and go
Like you do
Sway my way, yeah I need to know
All about you
And there's no cure, and no way to be sure
Why everything's turned inside out
Instilling so much doubt
It makes me so tired - I feel so uninspired
My head is battling with my heart
My logic has been torn apart
And now it all turns sour
Come sweeten every afternoon
CHORUS 2x:
Say you'll stay, don't come and go
Like you do
Sway my way, yeah I need to know
All about you
It's all because of you 4x
