Zero Hour!!

10...ish P.M - Imagine you enter a crowded nightclub, smoky ambience, drinks overflowing, you looking slightly cuter than usual (:p) and then as you are enjoying this moment, the DJ plays YOUR song ( yaaay) . Alcohol runs into your system, adrenaline rushes and you suddenly jump to the dance floor singing the lyrics along. This is why music, friends and alcohol is FUN. You lower your inhibitions; you forget about the world and boom you are your raw fun self. I have to admit alcohol makes me fun, right company with it makes me happier and dancing turns me on. There is something so elevating when you let your body sway to the music. Every worry leaves your body, you live for the moment and you revel.

Dance is an integral part of being a Punjabi. The moment we are born, we hear sounds of dhol reverberating through our souls. That is probably one of the reasons that I start dancing the minute I hear dhol playing. Anywhere. Anytime.  I have always been good at dancing, I started early. All the colony shows, man they were fun. Apparently I was very popular. Especially I used to do this Madhuri number – ek do teen…my dad was usually posted outside so one day he came from Ludhiana and came to see my show and had to stand on a chair to see me dance. People had gone crazy cheering and stuff hehe good memories. Though they never made a video of me so I could see it for myself. I found my school “slam book” a couple of days back and in that so many teachers had said that they still remember it, they still call me that but alas I will never know. How I was called “Chameli” by my dance teacher, who was disappointed when I didn’t complete my Bharatnatyam dance stages. Or how my entire clan is crazy for dance and it’s fab when we get together. So many stories (note to self – a blog post is required on these stories).


11:18 P.M -A night out is always fun, I write this post not under the influence of alcohol but the intoxication of music and laughter. I will add on to this throughout the night, FYI till I get the complete post out ( am hearing enough already being on the phone). As of now second round of drinks are here, friends are ready to get the party started (like it hasn't already) and I am hungry. I plan to get relatively drunk to enjoy the fun!

12:30 A.M – Phew! Taking a breather. While you are observing people, you realize that everyone has some struggle to go through. You may want to wish it away but why not dance it away. You see how some guys flirt, how some girls act pricey and some cheesy, couples in love can't keep their hands off each other. Some of the affluent class thinks they can use their attitude (read money, no class, huge egos, tinnie winnies D****) to hook up. Many do. But it’s always about the character man! It's not about how you love baby, it's about how you behave. Don’t even get me started on the various dance routines I am witnessing at the moment. (LOL). OK so much for PDA (get a room)!!!! Anyways will write again as am being pulled for dance and ooooo my current favourite song is on :p.


2.,....ish A.M – Sufficiently drunk, superbly high,could have danced a wee bit more but ....waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat a night!​!!
