[(dil mera machala jaaye katra katra
kaise main kaise bolu aashiq main tera) - 2
chaahane waalon ko tadapaana nahi achchha
iss tarah ruthake jaana nahi achcha
(asalaam waalekum jaani dil toh deti ja
asalaam waalekum jaani dil toh leti ja) - 2] - 2

jannat ka noor hai ya chaandani ka khwaab hai
tu har khayaal ke sawaal ka jawaab hai
walla kya baat hai rangin iss ada ki
sabse haseen tu saugaat hai khuda ki
main tere taarif ki taarif karata hoon
dekhake teri adaaye aah bharata hoon
(asalaam waalekum jaani dil toh deti ja
asalaam waalekum jaani dil toh leti ja) - 2

banda hujur ki toh aashiqi mein choor hai
yeh tere rang tere roop ka kasoor hai
chhaaya jo dhadkano pe woh tera suroor hai
meri aagaaz ka anjaam kuchhh juroor hai
ishq ki deewaanagi mein doob jaayunga
rafta rafta main tere nazdik aaunga
(asalaam waalekum jaani dil toh deti ja
asalaam waalekum jaani dil toh leti ja) - 2
asalaam waalekum jaani.....
asalaam waalekum jaani.....
asalaam waalekum jaani dil toh leti ja
asalaam waalekum jaani dil toh deti ja
asalaam waalekum jaani dil toh leti ja

Two of my favorite tracks from LotR.

Vox Hunt: It Came From the 80's

Show us something from the 80's.

Poochie & Pretty Bit!  Haha, I used to love Popples!  I even had a collapsible Popple tent that would attach to my bed.  I used to lug that thing EVERWHERE.  I wish I still had one at times; it's nice to just hide yourself from the world.  (Nice to know I was anti-social at such a young age.)  I was so upset when the stupid neighbor broke it. :'( 


Pretty Bit (the Popple) still has a knot in her tail.  One of these days, I'll get it out.  That's one toy I haven't seen them bring back yet, which I find surprising, because come on, a fuzzy, cute monster that turns into a ball?  What could be cooler!  (Except My Lil Ponies, but they screwed those up majorly.  I'm mad at my mother for giving those away.  I had an awesome collection.)


And then there's Poochie.  I think there was a show for Poochie?  Not sure though.  I just remember having all the stationary and coloring books.  Oh, no wait!  I think there was a show.  I didn't get a lot of the "cool" shows as a kid because the Disney channel was like a special channel you had to order back then, but I would live for the free preview days!

Birch - Between the boy she's going to marry and the one she left behind.

My life story.

QotD: Pass The Dice

What is your favorite board game?
Submitted by I'm Unique.

Hmmm, that's a toss up between Monopoly, Pay Day, Clue and Life.  Of course, there was also Guess Who? and Mall Madness when I was little.  I gave up the opportunity for an SNES for the latter.  (Seriously.)  And my parents had to search for months for Guess Who? and it was NOWHERE to be found.  We finally found it in California (last one!) and then when we got back to CT, they were everywhere!  Argh!

I do think Monopoly and Clue are my absolute favorites.  I made my own wacked out Bollywood version of Clue.  SO MUCH FUN.  It was old school though - Amitabh, Vinod K., Rishi K., Sri Devi, Madhuri, & Juhi.  ^_^  And I have UConnopoly, but now I think I want the Here & Now version.  OH & Sorry!  I adore that game!  And Scrabble.  Aw & Candy Land and MOUSE TRAP! OMG, I loved Mouse Trap.  We have this great home video of me trying to explain the rules to Candy Land.  It was completely incomprehensible, yet I can totally follow it.  Because I'm INSANE.  Oh, and there was some Witch game I had too; I don't remember it other than the board was 3D, so it was obviously cooler than everything else, but it would give me the creeps. 

Oh crap, what was that card game -- it had cards written in French.  I don't remember what it was or how it was played, but I LOVED that game.  My sister and I used to play that for hours on end.  MILLE BORNES!  Wow, I seriously do not remember the rules to this game.  o_O

As you can see, I can't quite pick one.  I am indecisive.  It's the only constant fixture of my personality.
