Talli

"Been there, done that", something i always wanted to say whenever people used to talk about being 'talli'. And u bet, i say that now ;). Three years now that I have been in the BandF arena, I had always wanted to have that feeling. The feeling that finds its description with most people as "seeexxyyyy", "relaxed", "slow", "awwww....", "don't ask me man", "oh, you'll be laughing riots" and lots like dat. So what is this all about??...well...me FINALLY having that feeling.


I was walking, made up my mind to start from monday which meant that I got this one more night to spend or better say, kill. So I had arranged some stuff on the external HDD or I cud have gone back to 'The Godfather' left at page 153. But then, down my apartment I saw my roommate in our balcony. He was surprisingly home and more to my surprise had his books open. But for those who don't know us, when both of us are staring out of the balcony means we are NOT gonna study. Eventually one would ask "kuch karna hai??" and as always the answer came..."chalo". So keeping off where we went and what we did, it straight comes to a point where we are lying down on the floor (nehh not yet). I was still attentive and probably so, he asked, "you don't feel anything??". I checked again and said "not yet". Perhaps I should have not said so, because that made us "go on". And bang that time i chuckled whoww. They had made their attack and now I was moving, floating and finally... got hit. And it all came true, my wish. But now, something I never wondered, what'll I be doing in this state??. Good sometimes you should have these 'fresh' experiences. I was thinking, anything and everything, giving myself proofs that I was still in control. But talking, was the last thing i wanted to do right now, so wen my partner in crime asked "feeling good...haan??"(no wonder he was not enquiring this time), I just nodded thinking that even he doesn't bother much. After all he is in the same state as mine, just that I am on a debut :P

So I was resisting still, what to do??...sing along? And now it became very clear why comfortably numb was called so and why the number was so damn popular with the buggers. Its funny how it puts you in a different world. You realize the significance of the hazy motion of the lights in Rang De Basanti, or other portrayals of the talli state. They're all true. And trust me, you can admire em only when you've been here.
It took me another hour or so to figure out that the end of this is gonna be when I give up. The more I try, I'll sink more. So all the effort left in me, I spent to acquire a decent position before I... passed out.

'talli' is d word used in my area of existence for getting drunk...so it took me a lil while 2 identify wat d whole story was being told 'bout...
although the feeling dat has been talked here 'bout is something i cant reely attach myself to, not being experienced 2 appreciate the hypnotism, but i wud certainly appreciate the way you are able to portray certain trivial moments in very simple, comprehensible language...this is surely a gift!!

friendly advice...addiction is bad...but everyting's worth experiencing once...

Unknown said...
