and here i come with a solution...
do one thing. make a list. of what u desire today.
then, TOMORROW, go back and check off things that were "granted" to u.
THEN, u'll know the ones that u didn't get were extravagant.
and let me know. OKAY?

You asked for it....

1. Given to lavish or imprudent expenditure
2. Exceeding reasonable bounds: extravagant demands.
3. Extremely abundant; profuse:
4. Unreasonably high; exorbitant:
5. Archaic Straying beyond limits or bounds.

Now redesire using these parameters :P beofre the day is over

One extravagant desire which Orkut is not going to grant you for sure is…

Sleep all day & No work in office

At least not for me…

More than what you can afford.
Like a pair of shoes that cost 200 bucks or a diamond ring that costs 20000 bucks or a car that costs 40000 bucks etc etc....

aMus said...

that's a smart fortune...those wishes that are not granted have been labelled extravagant, so u can't blame the fortune writer for being wrong...

:)

Its probably a soft way of telling..

"Better not try to demand anything that involves the green buck" !!

Pavi, I don't know what your face says and does not say but I am sure you are much more brighter than to have such materialistic desires when there are other things and needs to be taken care of. :)
