Adios Mes Amis..
today i will stop chatting with my old gtalk account.
now i will chat with the other one.
that will only for the Closest Circle.
i think i was getting astrayed.
in that way i was being misled.
some crap ideas were starting to rule the roost.
i was being taken over by some Thought which i Finally found was Detrimental.
that Must be Curbed right now.
ya i mean it and am very serious about it.
*****if someone thinks that it is about him or her, he or she is Definitely Wrong. this is not at all due to some Personal Grudge with someone. it is due to some Special Things, which i find, i am unable to deal with.*****
My Captions:
-----------------
well i wrote a lot of captions.
some were very good.
some were true word by word.
some brought me appreciation.
some ppl. were of the opinion that i copy them from somewhere.
well i wud say that, majority of them were Originals.
amazingly enough some ppl. sometimes were scared due to some scary Ghost Pictures.
i Apologise to them.
Trust me they were outcomes of Long Encounters with Some Quality Horror Movies.
newayz i also think that you should not have got Scared.
You are Grown Up babies.
My Friends:
---------------------------
i am apologetic to those ppl. who are my friends and whom i will miss due to the reason that i am stopping to chat with this account. i do not have any Hesitation in saying that it is a big personal loss to me. but i have to do it.
i am not left with any other option.
Causality Rules.
well i wud like to tell you that, i Find myself very Fortunate, that i got an opportunity to share some very beautiful moments of my life with you. i found that i was among the Best Brains. i found that all my friends know a lot more than i know. they were Truly an inspiration. i found that i will have to work very hard to reach the Level of Intellect at Which they live. i found that to be in the Elite Friend Circles i will have to be very efficient. well friends, i tried my best to be upto your expectations. rest is upon You ppl. to decide.
My Life with You:
-------------------------------
when i started chatting i was very apprehensive that will some girl chat with me?
am i smart enough that someone will give attention.
will i ever be able to make a girl my friend.
but when today when i see behind i find that i have many friends as girls.
some of them are True Friends.
i really Thank Them from the bottom of my heart for their Help when in need.
well i will also say sorry to them as i will not able to chat with them from today onwards.
Extremely Sorry.
i will try my level best to be in contact.
so plz. Cooperate with me and understand the problems i am facing due to which i have to stop chatting with this id.
well we shared some very interesting thoughts in chat sessions.
and Boyz, we talked about everything, studies, movies and even deodorants.
i think Boyz are like this.
Boyz find ways to have fun.
i remember there were times when some boyz chatted with there roommates only for fun.
and that was truly funny.
initially i didnt get the concept.
how can someone chat with someone sitting just in front of him.
but it happenned and really was a true fun.
there were many moments when we had discussions abt. serious topics also.
we used to discuss abt. our lives.
past, present and future.
Thanks to You all.
Thanks a Lot.
What Next:
---------------------------------
after sometime i will have a diff. id to chat with.
i am very hopeful that if i send you a Friendship Invite, You will be Merciful enough to accept it.
well i will again say "Plz." for that..
May i Conclude:
---------------------------------
if You are reading this line, i think You really are a Friend of mine, because it is a long post, and Not all will read whole of this.
i hope that many of You will understand the reasonz of this of my move.
i really do not need to explain further.
with these words My Friends i will end this post.'
bye friends.
