Wats up with me and Hola Vola ??


Thats my orkut "About me " content, which i have not changed since the time I created it..
There have been so many who have asked me this question, I have told only very few the actual origin of this. I usually say "summa" :)
It all started off with “Gladiator”movie ! Yeah it sure does’t make great sense.
The “Spaniard” inspired me to learn Spanish, and hola was the first word I got started with. And I managed to learn few more from one of my friends.
On some silly day , I used “hola” as the first word with everyone I chatted with and I got all kinda responses from each one. Some responded with cola, bola, sola etc similarly I got “vola” as response from one of my friends. I kinda liked it and that’s how I started using it. I don’t think he would even remember that he responded like that. I have been using this word that he started off for all these years.
And now, I have reduced using it but I get to hear it from almost every one who greets me. I have become Hola Vola Girl.
At work, ppl know what my password is for generic ids. It is funny how these words got tagged to me :D
In fact few weeks back, my status message instead of ”Hola Vola Ppl :D “ read, “should I change my status message” and many asked me not to change it :D
And may be I don’t want to change it ever.
Adios ppl :)

I did, I did write a blog !

I wanted to blog too, simply because many others do!
I created this account in March '08, wrote my first blog saying "I have no idea what to write "
People who know me would surely wont believe that I dont have anything to write or talk about. I simply can talk to anyone and almost anything. I think blogging is not all that different from talking .

But then, I really did't have anything to write and later and somehow lost even the heading of my blog!

Yesterday night, I was reading a blog of one my friends and logged into my account to find my only blog there starring at me saying " dont you dare say you have no idea what to write" !!!
I suddenly get this feel to write blog !

One thing that I have noticed with many blogs that I have read is the words being used, they seem to high for my vocabulary.. I dont understand why would anyone want to use words that are not common and readily understood.
since I dont get many words, that either proves that I am not good enough with words or may be the blogger wants to prove that he/she is great at it or may be this great thought of making the reader learn new words :)
Well, I am not gonna aim at beautifying my blog with poetic stuff, I am gonna type what I speak !
With all these running in my mind, I was on the usual daily call with mom.
I told her im too sleepy and said bye.
I switched off my pc, packed it in laptop bag and hit the bed! Somehow I was unable to sleep, I got into some conversation with my roomie, told her with great excitement that I am gonna start blogging!

I asked her also to join, and she said ye sure. I kept disturbing that girl who was reading a book which i had completed. Its always fun to kill the suspense ;)
But I was not into such playing mood today, all I wanted to do was blog !

I thought of all kinds of things that I could write : me, friends, family, boy friend ;) travel stories, funny experiences.. I got into this huge recap session that I almost scanned through my entire life !! I even got into future :D

I can actually sleep in noisy place and with lights on too, just I was into bloggy mood !
It was over 12 30, I thought I am not gonna sleep! Now, the thought of I am not sleepy all the more drove the sleep away. I have to wake up by 6 30 and that actually freaked me out. Every night when I sleep, I plead sun not to rise so early!

I asked my roomie "which side do I usually turn and sleep?? "
Later at one point she said she is now sleepy and said "Guess you should write a blog today and only then you would sleep" !

Oh man, she s going to sleep too!! what am I gonna do..
There have been so many nights when I dont get sleepy and I simply relax and later sleep off. But today I was restless !
Lights went off and I was still in bloggy mood !

I decided to write a blog, I took my laptop and was online and I finally wrote a blog ":)
With great sense of achievement (I know its just a blog ), I decided I wont pack my laptop n all, and peacefully slept !

6 17 alarm rings.. I got up by 6 20 ish to switch on heater, thinking sun will never listen to me !
Hey I remembered what night I had, came to hall and noticed the laptop was not there!
hmm oki thought may be I had packed it, I decided will mail all ppl about my achievement :D
Later this question struck me " So, what did i blog about" ?
I couldt get an answer... I scanned the night again.. and I could't guess what I had blogged. Decided not to think more on this but I would check it out at office...
As I was travelling in bus, I was now back to bloggy mood ! Man what did I write so late in the night! I later stepped outta this mood only to realize that may be I did't write at all :( I had't actually achieved anything yest night !!

I kept saying this like Tweety says " I did , I did see a putty cat " !
I did, I did write a blog !
I did't give up, went to office and checked my blogs and there was nothing...
Hey may be I wrote it but did't submit it :)

Well, fine if not yest night I decided I will write one tonight! I mailed my friends that im gonna start blogging, they asked me for the link! I will send after I write one !
I met my roomie a while ago and I told her hey I am gonna write a blog today, soon after dinner and talk with home !

Here I am writing this blog in a notepad with no power supply to submit my blog
guess today also im gonna be in a bloggy mood !
its over 11 pm now, may be next minute there would be power for me to submit !

oh gosh, I cant believe this.. power !!!
now, will my internet work ?
damn ! it is taking this long to connect !

now I can say !
I did, I did write a blog !
phew !
