The Flic-En-Flac local supermarket - Pasadena Spar now closes at 17:00 on Sundays
Krish's Delights closes at 21:30 on weekdays, and 22:00 on Saturdays and Sundays
Shoppie closes at 19:00 on weekdays
You can get Emtel Phonecards at the Wolmar Store, Shoppie and Ah-Youn.
You can get cigarettes late at night at the casino (next to spar). The casino closes at around 03:00 am, but you might have to pay Rs 135-Rs 150 for a pack of 20.
The two places you can get internet in here is - [free] the Post Office (behind the police station) and at [paying] Spar.
And of course, if you need a place to stay, the police station's open 24/24.
Welcome. Flic-En-Flac is where I used to live, eons ago. I obviously no longer live there 🤷🏽♂️ but what the hell - I decided to keep the name. Thank you for visiting and complaining.

My buddy, Arsha
Arsha (in white) and Aveisha (in red)I can't remember exactly how and when I got to meet Arsha. She's Vidisha's cousin, and also happens to be Ritesh's niece. She's Aveisha's sister, and also knows Arvind. I guess all the roads really were leading to Rome. I think Arsha is one of the few people who's pretty lonely, but doesn't keep complaining about it. Yes, well, she's going out with a cute guy now (too bad, boys, she's already taken, and it looks serious) but I still think most people fail to realise who she really is on the inside. |
All of that to say she deserved an important place on my blog. |

Original Love
I am young, yet I write with the dry passion of an old man with a wounded heart and a bruised soul. I have rarely seen things from the world, but I have never taken anything for granted - instead, I spent my time analyzing and figuring out the patterns of life.
Life is nothing but an equation of disasters and atrocities.
I remember when I was younger and naive: I seemed to have a never-ending supply of energy that I kept spending to correct what I saw as disturbances in the patterns of this world. During this time, I was also a true romantic. I could love with all my heart and soul, without any fears, without any doubt. But times change, and people change. I gradually stepped backwards into the shadows, with countless knives and daggers piercing my heart.
I do not claim to be wise. I do not claim to be right. However, at times, I wish I could get back my strength to defeat the present and conquer the future.

Almost Racist
Do you know how it feels like to be treated differently from everybody else?
I've been thinking about that lately. I've always been going out with women who never treated me like they used to treat their boyfriends. I know I've always been the sub-standard boyfriend, the backup-plan, the guy you can actually impose any kind of condition upon.
It got real bad today. I was drunk - really drunk - and I said something truly horrible to one of my ex girlfriends, because I had been thinking about what she did to me. The bad thing is that I know exactly - at a millionth of cm square precision - where and when to place that comment that really hurts.
However, I regret now. Why am I so weak?
I wonder.

I'm Back... And Working!
Okay boys and girls, it's been a while since I last posted anything in here.
I'm back! YES! And I found a job too!
I'm currently working as Expert and Technical Assistant at Eucis Global Services. The job appelation sounds mighty, but it's nothing much, really. I'm just interfacing stuff with other stuff (heh). This is a temporary job though - I don't know if I'm going to stay there, move over to another company or work in association with the company.
I'm supposed to be working right now, but I thought I should post this :)
