Turning 5 - Time flies

I turned 5 this 24th .Time flies - say my parents for me its too slow .Want to become big fast or atleast my dad says i am a bit ahead of my age ....ahem ! (assuming thats a compliment and not that i am already too big for my boots ) .I prompted mum n dad to throw me a party this time ...when hintes didnt suffice i got into plainspeak " i want a party " kinda of tantrum but little subtle than it sounds .Some acheivements at 5

Party was at the mall .good fun .All from school showed up .Got lot of presents . Didnt open them for a week ,me thinks mum was more keen to see the stuff than me .Well anyways i am not too much about toys .

1.I know my stuff .....what i want

2.I have honed my language skills

3.Amongst the teachers pets at the big school

4.Continue to be a nature lover ...crave for open and green like a "vampire craves for blood " says mom

5.I can stay away from my parents .Have been to a sleepover and grandparents two weeknds in a row .Dad and mum thought i would yearn to be back ...nope had to be dragged back

6.I am good storyteller ( including spinning yarns )

7.I love my new school and new friends .picture next time

8.I can converse with old and young

bad stuff ? let me think

1.Food and me ...nope

2.Tantrums ...if not now then when

Well thats that !

Btw had a great farm trip to Mangao ...lot of animals .and as usual bought back a pet ...white mouse /guinea pig /hamster .....we tried to google it and figure out what it was ...it turned out to be a mouse ..i also have a temp pet at dadajis place ..a cat .Favourite animal ? Crocodile and snakes .Creepy i know , but am really fascinated by them Have asked Dadaji to get them for me .

My first school project : Interview dad on Video

Its back to school ...a much bigger and more exciting ones.New friends , fancy dress , injury and much more to begin with .Watch the video of my first school project - Me interviewing dad on camera .I know i look the more confident of the two .Thats just DNA improvement down the generation .Let me know your comments .The video received special mention and my teacher could not keep her thrill which she finally conveyed to mom .BTW the credit for the edit goes to mom on her i mac .I am told its some kind of magic machine -  i have been watching cartoons ,listening to songs and typing away on it .Subhaan Interviewing Dad

Me at The Movies !

You all might think that today's generation of 4 year old love to watch movies .You go it wrong .Last 30 days i have been to 5 and don't intend going for more .Not that they were bad ones ( in fact mum n dad took me to movies which they would never watch themselves ....or maybe ) .
It started with Kung Fu Panda 2 .How i hate having to watch 3 d .One of my favourite characters but i was yet happier leaving the hall .Then came Transformers 3 - 3d ( here we go again ) .This i think was more for my dads viewing than mine , i was even bribed with a couple of transformers toys to get my buy in ( which i love by the way ) .This one just wouldn't end .I had to shed a few tears to get out of this however barely manged to stay till the end .Next came Chillar Party advertised by salman Khan ( my role model - my folks tell me that that i have tantrums like him ) but the bugger doesn't show up .Or at least i thought he was in the film .I slept of somewhere in between .Harry Potter 7 - Though it was the 7th edition it was my first one .I somehow did ok with this one just because of magic .But i knew i was not yet ready for 2 hrs plus 3 d stuff .Finally just this weekend i saw Zindagi na milege Dobaara .This one i am sure was for my folks .Mandar Mama also joined in .From the first few minutes i knew this was not my stuff .At the end of the 2 and half hours when the credits started rolling in i heaved a sigh and said"Thank God".I think this time i was not the only one who was hoping for a end to the ordeal .
Moral of the story : no more movies for me . Am happy playing , going to the farm ,drawing and tv in the comfort of my bed at home .It is decided the next movie i go to will be when i decide to do so .I have just given a yes to Smurfs releasing next week and nothing after that .BTW i have been asking to be shown Delhi Belly ( i like boy films and it s posters right outside my house - I live next to the best multiplex in the city ) for some strange reason i am not being taken to this while i have been subjected to a few torturous ones . I wonder why .Dad says i can watch it when i grow up .....
So this is the last week before my new ,big school starts .As a practise i am already off TV and busy shopping .Looks like a big deal to me .

My Pets Gallery

My love for animal continues inspite of intervention by the new age childeren indulgences like doremon / pokemon ,cars and transformers .They continue to be my favourite playthings .I have manged to have a parrot for some time now .Over the last two months i did pick up two squirrels ( gifted by mama ) , but the poor little things did not survive a road trip from vash to andheri .Dadaji is ensuring my interest in all things natural remains alive at all times.He has kept safe lot of them in their natural habita at mangao .A photo feature on the same .

The Boy Tantrums ,Gaffes & Masti

Football Bheem - My favourie Show League of Superheros

India cheer squad Is there a mint in my stomach ?

I am on a roll .Growing in height and masti .Lats 6 months have been hectic with new learnings and action .Listing a few of my favourites

1.The Language fun - I have now learnt to convesre well and my chats are now mixed with some eloquent words and some of my own making .English is a funn language and when i use certain words in a slightly different context they get amused .wonder why ? Sample words Hitted , gaved ,downer , outer ( when i get someone out in cricket ) and some other gems .Daddy is at me to correct some of these ( for some reasons he says he only understands english when i know he is just saying it so that i talk to him in english ) .Am also making a effrt at learning kutch (my "mother " toungue ).

2.The Sports Fun

Cricket and football . What else ! I have learnt to bat a bit and am lefty and i kick good with my left leg .In my game i cant get out and lose or else its game over with tantrums .Also went on the road when India won the world cup to see crazy people on the streets and couldnt figure out what the fuss was and it upset me more when i didnt get the icecream , the pretext on which i was on the ride .Slept within minutes obvilious to what going around .

3.The Activity Fun

Cooking , inventions and shiamak davars .I seem to enjoy the dance classes .cooking is a fuss the teacher does everything and gives us the credit and i get neatly cooked dishes home ( not neceassrily tasty ) .Mum and dad eat those out of emotions .Also attended a Choota bheem birthday party . Was dissapointed with the costume character . I thought that there would be a real one .

4.The Masti Fun

Well this is the real, real fun with disasterous results .The latest one ....me gulping down a couple of coins ...managed to puke one out but created a suspense ,if one made it to the stomach .I was rushed to the hospital to get it checked .luckily it turned out to be a false alarm .I have put upa photo of my first x ray experience .It actually turned out to be fun .

Going forward i am excited about my new school and friends .At this stage friendships are a a bit complicated you have building friends , school friends ,class friends but they seem to keep changing every 6 months or even less .So i have new best friends everynow and then .One constant friendship is with my fellow super hero Areeb .We meet less but enjoy a lot .

Lots of action coming up !

Photo Updates

Lots of action but will start with some of my Kerala Photos ....Good fun .Elephant ride and fishing was the highlight .Animal lover that i am .

My "Pet" Blunders

Caught Ya ! Fishing In Kerala .

My Pet Crab ( RIP ) Elephant Ride ( the real one in the next post)


"Nature Lover " thats what my dadaji calls me and that i am .Love animals and plants and say that i want to be a hunter when i grow up (assumption : hunters are the people who get to be with animals on animal planet ,the only real channel i watch other than the animation one ).My luck with real animals seem to be not that great .I have tried to pet a few with disastrous results .

1.Foggy the Frog - btw : i name my own pets

Picked up from the local garden ( captured by dad ) .It but surived 3 days even though i got worms to feed him .Disappeared in the house for 24 hours and found him in the bathroom .Put him back in the box and next day found him all fours up .

2.Fufu the snail

Picked up from outside my dr.clinic .The slimy guy crept out overnight and out of the window .Not to be found .We i guess he is atleast alive and kicking

3.Chickiyoo the little chick

Piked up from dadji farm .The poor thing all but lasted 3 days before its noisy chuckles turned silent

4.Crabee the Crab - yep i got a live one .The creepo walks sideways which was amusing .I tied him to a rope and took him to show off to my friends in the building (btw the frog made it to the school too where everyone was scared except me ) .Carbee escaped and was allover the kitchen till dad covered him in a box ,the guy did not make it till the morning .Vishaka had bought it for me

5.Turtlee the turtle

Dadaji got thsi one for me .It was on ugly fella .I did not bring him back home and now he is leading a good life in mangaon

What next .....coming up a parrot and a monkey ( monkey is already there waiting for me in mangaon )

I also caught a fish in kerala ...really ! but i let it back into the lake .
