#14--Bricolage

Bricolage

This is a revolutionary word !! Yes... trust me ... if we could follow it or whatever it means then  no one would have ever had to look down the stairs. This word is the abridgment of President Obama's belief --"Yes, We Can". Anyways... enough of elation.... lets come to its etymology, bricolage comes from French bricole which means "trifle/small job" (that doesn't make the word any less large) and the pronounciation of the word goes like \bree-koh-lahzh\






Dictionary meaning(noun) --  construction or something constructed by using whatever materials happen to be  available.
Example sentence -- Yes... still you can reconstruct your life .... even it becomes a bricolage but nevertheless it will be your life !!


Fun description -- Ok .... bricolage may give us hope but we should not leave our feet from the ground. In other words we should not lose our practicality. Lets see some situations when the bricolage goes wrong :
1. You can't make bricolage and pass every exam ( Shit !! I have not a bit of knowledge in this subject..How can i even make a bricolage?)
2. You cannot always eat a bricolage !! (2 spoonful of sugar, a bunch of curry patta and a mug of hot water ... can you make an edible bricolage now ?? You gotta be a herbivorous animal for that)
3. No, you can't win elections by speaking senseless bricolage.   ( Whoa wait !! may be you can :P)
4. You can't sing bricolage in front of thousands of crowd and get away with your bones intact!! (Actually you can as eggs and tomatoes projectiles doesn't seem to break bone)
5.You can't always write bricolage like I do in my blog !! ( What ?? You can ?? :O)




P.S. : Don't ever lose hope ..... because you will always have that bits and pieces to construct atleast a bricolage !! :)
