I smile...


There are many a times when I smile. But the times I smile when I am alone are the ones that generally produce the heartiest smiles...often ending up in giggles. And I smile by myself quite often. I smile when my phone shows "Mamdo Bhoot" calling or maybe "Yeti" or "Balloon"! Yeah my phonebook is quite strange. I smile when I pass by Moni da's canteen. I smile when I walk past the hawkers selling dresses in Gariahat. I smile when I pass by certain class rooms in college. I smile when I pass by a certain building. I smile when I go past the Book Store. I smile when I eat Chicken Pokora at Milon Da's. I smile when I go behind the Economics Department. I smile when I am on my way to the byepass over the Gariahat-Kasba Connector and I catch a glimpse of Gariahat Mall ( its probably shut down now though). I smile when I see the school bus of a certain school passing by. I smile when I go past a shop in Park Circus. I smile when I go to City Centre. I smile when I see the lifts in City Centre. I cannot stop smiling when I am in one of those lifts. I smile when I go past a certain Ladies' wear shop in City Centre.I smile whenever I ride a rickshaw. I cant hold back my smile when I am on a rickshaw and its raining. I smile when I go by Peter Cat. I smile when I go to Krystal Chopsticks. I smile when I walk past Bar-B-Q. I smile when I see the sun after the showers. I smile when I see a broken chair. I smile when I go past a Fast Food shop in Golpark. I smile when I go by the CCD at Lake Road. I smile whenever I see the Archies Gallery in South City. I smile a little first when I go past Grub Club and then a little more when I pass Caffeine. I smile when I enter the road beside Mouchak in Golpark. I smile whenever I am at the Cold Drinks shop at the corner of Deshapriya Park. I smile when I walk past Dakkhini. I smile whenever I see a Frankfyn Air Hostess Academy, especially the Gariahat Branch. I smile when I hear the song Love me Tender by Elvis. I smile when I hear the song Whats Going On from the movie Salaam Namaste. I smile when I hear the song Kitne Armaan by Himesh. I smile when I hear a song from Golmaal Returns. I smile when I wear a certain pairof trousers and I can still see some of the red stain that is STILL there! I smile sometimes when I am having Maggi. And sometimes, very few times, I smile even when I am looking myself in the mirror!

And all of the times I have spoken of above, I dont need anybody to be there with me or say anything to me to make me smile. I just smile all by myself. And the best part is that earlier, not ALL of these made me smile. Rather, some of them would almost make me cry. But how things change! I cant stop smiling when I see them now. Wish everything was just like this, all the sadness get washed away and only the happy memories remain...
