Obituary
I regret to inform you, that the happening year '2005' passed away on the stroke of midnight on 31st December. 2005 will be greatly missed for all the joys it gave me for a good twelve months. It is survived by 2006, which is trying its best to bear the responsibilities of its predecessor.
12 months. 12 memories... and many more. I want to pen them, for my sake. And for the sake of the closure that it deserves before its burial. But I'll spare me (and you!) the details.
J - White beaches. Sarong. Jetski. Penang.
F - Bonus. Rich. Gucci. Poor.
M - 14 papers. Proud. Very proud.
A - Holi. Home. After 7 years. Blog.
M - Midnight. A. Ralph Lauren. Marche.
J - KL. Phase2. Compliments. Friends.
J - Birthday. 3 celebrations. Attention. Lots!
A - She comes. He goes. Down. Busy.
S - HK. New life. New beginning.
O - Restless. Alone. Blogoholic.
N - New friends. Godsent. Shopping.
D - US. Snow. Christmas. OMG!
And that's all I have to say about that.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
And I regret to inform you that some parts of me have left us forever. They have left their cousins and siblings, for me to keep for the time-being. I hope those parts rest in peace.
Some trust was lost. Some faith was gone. Some traits were dead. Some 'me' I left.
Some grief I chased. Some friends I made. Some dreams died. And so did I.
Some clarity I got. And in the process, some innocence I lost.
Somethings. I realised. Somewhere. I was. Starry-eyed.
Sometimes. I cry.
I want... my piece of sky.
And that's all I have to say about that.

The last obituary is for some of the blogs that met premature deaths. I hate to see them gone, way before their time.
One such blog which I will surely miss is Aristera says... the simplicity of his posts, and the poetry that he would dig out from places unexpected, made it an excellent read. And to steal a line from his post... hazaron khwaishey aise ke har khwaish pe dum nikle, bahut nikle mere armaan lekin phir bhi kam nikle...
And that's all I have to say about that!

NICE POST!!!
Goodbye to the year...but keep those beautiful moments safe and sound in that memory chest of yours. Something that you need to open and remember every once in a while, so that u never forget about them! It wud be such a shame if these beautiful memories start fading away. I know i will always treasure mine! :)
Hope u have an even better year ahead babes!
=D
Very well composed I have to say!
By far one of the best posts I have seen in a long time on this blog. :)
Hope the new year is as exciting as the one gone past, if not more. There is no fun living if you aint riding high with arms flailing!
Wish you the best!

Sleazy twist is what u'd asked for and sleazy twist is what you got! :p
Medha,
Yes, precisely why I penned them down. To revisit them and relive those lovely times :)

Medha,
Thanks babes! Had almost forgotten about it! Now let me hop over and read it pronto.
