How many times will I say the same thing I wonder... I will write on this page regularly !! But am not saying it this time..

I think facebook and gtalk are 2 bad things which keep me away from unleashing the creative side of me.. I waste time there and I know it. Sheer waste.. Once in a while when i read my posts i jus feel so so good about them.. 2 - 3 years ago, I have written so much.. How could all this go away in jus a jiffy.. Have job made things as bad as this I wonder.. May be its not my job.. Its Facebook, the time waste site.. Still I seem to be addicted to it.. I so need to buck up and do better things in life.. Life seems so dormant !!

In the meantime.. I see a lot of progress in my life.. In this writing space, I have put down my best and my worst moments those 2 years and so i thought that this writing space deserved to know this too.. My wedding being fixed for the next year.. Time is jus flying and I am so waiting for the preps to start... Obviously, Its that moment of my life when I am the Princess getting read ta wed my Prince !!! On a good note I jus hope to write about other things here dear blog... and I jus hope I will...

Cheers

Madarasapattinam !!

2010-07-16T15:50:00.004+05:30

Hi,

Awesome is not the word enough for a movie taken with a lot of research, perfect characters, right amount of acting and beautiful romance.

Madrasapatinam was a surprise packaged movie with all in right elements. It was astray Thursday afternoon my cousin and I decided we would go for this film as i had open tickets at Inox. I called my nephew along too and we went. The 3 15 show was booked... We stayed around there to see if there were any cancellations and there we got Rs10 tickets at 3:10 to watch the movie.. Though it was the Front row, the theatre was good enough to even mask that flaw.

So, we settled and there started the journey to the classic city in the 1940s... My own city Chennai a.k.a. Madras(at that time). Right from the sets erected to the lighting up of the Central Station, Ive never seem my own Chennapatinam being shown so beautifully. The movie was a very simple story line set in the independence era in the lines of Lagaan showcased in a beautiful manner. The roads, to the images of old Madras still stands fresh in every viewers mind. The old Spencers&co now Spencers Plaza, Walltax road, Central Tower, Ripon buildings and not to forget our very Own Adyar River(Cooum).. Though it pains to see that these things don exist anymore, the other side of me feels happy that I live in the place which was like this.. The movies highlights is surely the Cinematography, awesome portrayal, Background score and the best being the showcasing of boundless love and romance... The color tones used in the movie makes us differentiate the times and also gives a realistic feel..

The lead starts Arya and Amy Jackson have done excellent jobs.. The way the love between them has been portrayed so so well that other directors need to beg to know how to show love(of the(literal transalation of the thamizh saying.. Pichai edukanum idha kathuka)... Language is no barrier for love.. Both of their eyes convey thousand unsaid things.. The song Pookal Pookum tharunam has become my ringtone and one of those songs which make you listen to them over and again..

A small minus in this movie would be a little bit of Dragging in the second half which can be forgiven..

Hats off to everyone in that team who really worked hard to give is such a wonderful movie.. It makes me happy to realize that Good Director like Vijay still exist and great movies like this are still being made... Thus I came out of the movie hall with utmost Satisfaction, my beautiful city and the song Pookal pookum tharunam ringing memories in my mind...

Cheers

Whats in a BABY !!!

2010-06-29T11:58:00.004+05:30

Hey,

All of us like babies a lot but whats in it to so Aw about !!!? Don mistake me.. Even i Aw at babies. This question of mine which was in the back of my head for so many days got answered very recently when i best friend gave birth to a kid. It was 8.30 in the night and I was standing outside the operation theatre doors, waiting for the guy to be out of my best buds tummy and BAM doors open and the doctor gets out the baby for us to see. He was jus 5-10 minutes old. O my God.. What a wonder !! A living things so sweet and nice has been sitting inside the tummy for so long. HE was so pink and i would also say dirty. And he suddely triend to open his eyes. Seeing this world and Universe for the first time... How can you jus not say an Aw about this. Tears welled up my eyes.. I ve never seen a baby so early.. Except my bro.. but i was small then, din understand these things... This I think is one of the most amazing things !!! So.. I visited him the next day(yesterday).. He was stretching nicely.. He is outta a cucoon and he was trying so hard to be free and out.. He was sleeping though.. AM so waiting to go and visit him today, which i will in sometime.. Happy mom and Happy Dad... And here I am.. May be he ll call me Aunt Aishu !!! I wouldn mind it though !!!!

And guys.. I ve been having this craving for Hot Chocolate since the day i saw the movie Chocolat.. I wanna really good hot Chocolate made outta Cacoa and not bournvita powder.. Do suggest me a place in Chennai if you know one..

Cheers

Me and Raavanan !!!!

2010-06-24T14:18:00.000+05:30

After the hype created around raavanan and and the one I created by myself to see the movie without hearin any kinda non sense from any anti social elements... I watched the movie yesterday... The list includes my 2 friends and my cousin who i turned deaf ears to this past few days.. Turnin deaf ears even meant accusing them to my mom..

So finally about the movie which has been having a mixed response.. It was great.. or let me put it this way.. I Liked it !! Generally for the past week there have jus been more criticisms, but i don see anythin to be criticized in the movie.. You sit at a movie theatre and you have one of the most breathtaking views of the forests and the rain and hear some real good music, see amazing actors transforming as characters, and a great experience.. What lacks here?? It is a real down to down simple storyline known by all the Hindus.. Even the characters portrayed have shades of the epic characters.. And I found it ta be a great modern day adaptation..

The positives of the movie was the choice of cast, camera work, music, acting, and of course the mani ratnam banner... Vikram is awesomeness personified, Aishwarya - adorable, Prithvi - Neat, Karthik-as usual - leaves a mark, and others have done a great job too..

Still Mani Ratnam cant escape criticism... There were a lot of loose ends in the movie.. Towards the end a few characters were jus neglected and suddenly their characters stopped appearing.. And the editing I would call it different when compared to other movies.. There are people actually pointing out mistakes in editing but i think it pretty well suited the tempo of the movie..

Final Verdict - I would surely suggest this movie for hard core Mani fans and even people who like ta see movies with class unlike mass... U d surely Like it !!! But if u have made up ur mind to go and criticize, save the money and go for a ur type movie rather than irritating others !!!

Actually this final verdict is so harsh, cause i had people who don even watch enough number of movies to even talk about it.. When you don like somethin, you don like it... The person has ta keep it to themselves rather than pushin the idea to other people and make them change their perceptions..

After the movie, me and one o my best buddy had time out tagether at Express Avenue.. The new mall near the Royapettah Clock tower.. DO pay a visit there.. Its worth it !!

And ya, I am jus half way developung soemthin bout a bro-sis relationship.. Will publish it once done !!! Until then.. Veera veera veera

Cheers

MOM !!! I am a piece of YOU !!!

2010-05-09T13:46:00.005+05:30

Heyi,

Couldn think of any other title.. I thot of using titles like My mom Bestest or Super mom and all that but then decided against it cause anyway all these things go without say.

Its Mothers Day !! Its not that you remember your mom only on this day, its jus the day you acknowledge her presence in your life more than any other day. All of us are really attached to our moms. Though we have dad, brothers, sisters everyone are always around us a mother plays a more important role than anything else. That too in my case the relationship i share with mom is really way far more important that all the other relationships already present, yet to come in my life. I very well know that whatever happens to me, the first person to react to it would be my mom good or bad. Thats where a MOM stands

To talk about my mom. She is a pillar of strength to me. Everyone might think its just another humbug where the daughters write for their moms on mothers day but I find this a very special thing. She never loses the faith she has on me. Whatever confidence I have today in me is what she shared with me from her heart. I boldly carry a piece of her on my shoulder. She feels so happy when people say " Lakshmi Ponnu avala maadriye.. Romba smart !!" (that I am jus like my mom.. Smart !!) She is really a smart person. Quite difficult to find one like her.

She tells me stories of her early marriage days where she was married off at 21 and she had to face a culture shock. A Chennai bred person in a Tanjore based family. But i always hear it from my aunts and granny how she so well adapted to it. All of them from my dads family love her. Thats kinda really a surprise cause In laws never like the daughter in laws as per policy. Thats where she stands. A very friendly caring and a bold person she is. Will carry anythin off with perfect ease.

All through these years she has been this really best friend to me and now being the bestest. I have never generally hid anythin from her except for that one something which she now knows. Even then she supports me through everything. You know whats special about a mom. She will support you, she likes it or not, if it does good to you-she will support you. A bundle of energy she holds and passes it on to everyone. Her enthusiasm is so so so contagious.

We live in an apartment with 72 flats and any apartment function, my mom is involved. People want her to be involved in arranging it. She will go out of the way to make people happy. Its so typical of amma to say " When four people are happy because of you, You feel satisfied". All my friends so love her and always say that my mom is awesome and cool !!.. I feel so proud bout it mom !!

Leave all those things. For the past 2 years now, my mom and I have shared this real great bond. She acts as a perfect bridge between me and my dad. Convinces both of us so easily and always thinks of what makes me happy. She has been spending so much on getting stuff which i like, making me feel the best and taught me the best secrets. She always keeps telling me " even if you are married and away, you will be my best friend and we will share the best bond" which is perfectly true. There have been so many places i have talked back to her really rude but still she d say "its better that you change - for your own good" Can you ever think of any other selfless relationship. She supports me for everythin. To her my life and my happiness stands first. I jus decided to leave my job now - she never even thought of anything else, jus said "If you don wanna go - Don go" She never tried to convince me to stay for this reason or that reason. She doesn console when i cry, rather gives me the strength and says how much i don deserve to cry.

A typical explanation for my mom would be 48 outside and 28 inside... I wouldn call her 48 outside also cause she always looks and dresses Chic and decent. She looks like this amazing modern yet a culturally strong mom. You know what her latest love is - Facebook and more things on computer. I always aspire to follow her values so much which i will try hard to. Today, am this strong, bold courageous and also beautiful(genetically- the foto will explain the rest) all because of her. I live here with her guidance support and mainly HER !!

Hey.. Its time.. I promised to get her nail polish, and am here writing down stuff.. I better get going !! Happy Mothers Day mom !! And to all the moms in the world !!!

Cheers

SO.. There it is !!!

Rambling and movie !!!

2010-03-22T11:16:00.003+05:30

hey,

I ve been tryin yo write something for quite long now and roday i decided to ramble atleast somethin which has been in my mind for quite sometime now... For sometime now I ve been sitting at office with not much work ta do and suddenly started on an assignment of making changes in the college website.. I am doing it at the same time am feeling bad about having a no progress career and a really bleak future.. That apart..

I ve been wanting to start an event management company for a long time now... More than event management, its been a love for Wedding planning. Wedding planning is a really lucrative career abroad.. here it is nothing more than a low level Broker job. I seriously wanna bring in that Chic and hep culture of wedding planning. It might take time though. My next idea is to open a Cafe !! It know it sounds weird but, I always wanted ta open one.. I ve had a major part of my life at Cafe Coffee Day.. !!!

I saw Vinaithaandi Varuvaya few days ago.. I was jus wondering why i did not like it much.. Was it because i saw it when i had fever, or was it because the movie aggravated my fever.. Was it because my expectations were too high or was somethin really wrong with the movie???

Though i couldn conclude, the movie made me think a little.

I will never call that movie bad cause, it was a feel good chic flick with an Indian flavour, but certain things were sure unacceptable, atleast to me... I believe in love a lot and even on love at first sight.. Anyone can break into a song in any moment.. The emotion in great when experienced rather than being read. So, as the movie goes by its really clear that the female character Jessie is a volatile and unstable person who does not know what to do. The hero Karthik feels that there something great with Jessie and that she is like mature and super good and "the one". I feel he has made a wrong choice. Cause Jessie i would call a beautiful confused b***h who has no guts to even confront her dad. She lacks even the S in steadiness and stability. When the character is this, how did the hero be mad bout her. She is also this really dominant as she is elder to him. She has the guts to make out with him and say this might be the last time. ??? I thought a lot bout this and narrowed down on somethin what the guys of today always say. "Ellam Ponungalum Ipdi thaan machaan"(all girls are like this only, bro). But i disagree with that "All". Yes, there are a lot of girls doin this nowadays. When they love a guy nothin actually stops them, but when it comes to marriage they give into their parents lucrative options. There is always a way to make parents understand. But jus carryin on with life without confronting parents even once is the heights of being a B***h. SO, Thats for now.. Will write soon...

Cheers

2010-02-26T08:58:00.000+05:30

Hey guys,

you know, i felt i really should deliberately put down somethin today in my blog.. Cause i have piles of unfinished posts lying in my drafts. Each time i start a post and i don complete it. Its been happening for ages now.. Life is nice but i dunno i have this disturbance at the back of the mind.. Anyway, I jus started tweeting few days ago and i started started buzzing through Google too... I felt these things are kinda nice only when you are bored. You cant maintain it like some really important thing like an email ID. SO.. Lets leave all that..

Yesterday i went to my school after a long time. It so brought back a lot of memories. Rest is best left Unsaid. I will come up with some pots or atleast a tag soon.. I wanna make a comeback !!!

Cheers

See me in Action !!!!

2010-01-05T23:01:00.005+05:30

Hey Guys,

Its been a long time since i wrote.. But before i wrote i wanted ta upload a part of my dance show.. So. Here it Goes... I ll write about somethin soon...

Comments are welcome !!!

Cheers..

Pandora !! Eywa !! I SEE YOU !!

2009-12-26T20:37:00.009+05:30

Heyi,

Its about a really rocking 2 and a half an hour experience which triggered me to write here. Before that.. Hope all of you out there had a great Christmas.

On Wednesday night, pressurized by my brother, I stepped out of the house really tired, worn out and sleepy out for a movie Avatar. I did wanna see that movie but not at the end of a slashing weekday. I removed my contact lenses and changed to my glasses. To my dismay, my bro tells me in the car that am supposed to wear a 3D glass. Normally I leave with contact lens but this day I very specially wore glasses. Reached there, mentally making up my mind to wear two glasses, one on top of the other and saying a silent prayer that it should fit and i shouldn sleep either.

Getting into the theatre INOX was a Herculean task. Getting the car valet parked, controlling my dads temper(for a change, not mine this time), getting the net tickets printed, entering only through one gate, moving one by one, stand in queue for the 3D glass, and get into the theatre one after the other. Such a mess. Nothing beats Satyam Multiplex.

I went in. Loads of expectations and excitement(Courtesy : Adithya(my bro)). His energy levels are really contagious. He has taken after me in that aspect. So, finally the movie started.

The hero was this really smart guy with broken legs though. That din bother me. Slowly I started getting into the movie and then into the most awaited PANDORA. For the benefit of those who haven watched, its a really small planet where the other planets are visible in the skyline. This planet Pandora has living beings who look almost human, with a few deviations though, standing 10 feet tall with an amazing flexible body. This movie is dates way ahead in 2154(jus imagine, we are talkin bout 2012 worlds end), where Humans find their way upto Pandora for its rich minerals. They have put up a research center, where they have DNA merged bodies resembling that of the Na'vi(the natives of Pandora). Technology is used to merge the nervous system of the human body to that of the MADE Na'vi bodies to explore Pandora. Its like controlling a remote body from your brain here. Thus begins the story.

Am not telling anythin more here bout the story line cause its best left unsaid and its for you to watch this amazing Screenplay with a fresh mind.

Pandora comes as a pleasant surprise. It is one of the most beautiful place which i might never get to see. The amount of imagination gone into the beauty of that place, its creations and the things which happen there make you wonder if James Cameroon visited GOD for an appointment to discuss World Designing. Even the small small things such as lights glowing on the ground when they keep every step, the places they sleep, the connections they make which the end of their pigtails and the animal tails make it feel magical. Few of the cute places were the Tree of Voices, Tree of Souls and their parent tree. Everything being connected and everythin working in harmony makes you fall for that place. We live in the enerdy borrowed from nature and nothin is permanent is stressed throughout the movie. The Spirit of Eywa, the very name made me feel good. I am jus not able to stop scribbling here as I liked the movie so much. Made me wonder where the Cinema world is heading to when Films like "Avatar" are made just once in a decade, remaining in the best memories forever.

Everythin in this film was worth a mention, music particularly, stirred my heart and made shivers run through my spine. With all these things who would not want to visit the magical Pandora. The importance of Nature conservation is told in one of the best ways.

I very Badly Wanna visit Pandora. Eywa You Hear me ??

I SEE YOU.. ;)

Contrast !!!

2009-12-19T11:49:00.000+05:30

Heyi,

Been a while since i blogged. Today i get the time to enjoy writing along with the rythm of the rain. I dunno why, but life seems to be the best when it rains.

A week ago...

You feel like having stuff hot and drinking steaming mugs of coffee. There are people who say otherwise. They say life is miserable when it rains and that they are not able to continue with their jobs. The best impact rain has is on school students, that too during exam time. Exams getting postponed excites them. One of the classic examples is my brother who spreads this news of joy to each and every person in his class. He takes full pleasure in making my dad pay the phone bill to do a broadcast of "declared holiday" news.

Today..

A total contrast. Its sunshine. I jus think the weather is kind of fully confused with what to do. Keeps changing drastically on a day to day basis. Today is a Saturday, and am working. Thats sad, is not it... I feel bad to come so far on Saturdays but what do I do. Office cannot be shifted for my own fancies right. Still, apart from work i had a lot of things to do today. A concert, alumni meet, dance classes. But this distance between my home and work makes me handicapped. I cannot do anythin when i think about doing it.. Am I actually making my blog a "Cribbing About Everythin" area. Am stopping here.

On a happier note. Things seem to take a turn in life... I have 3 performances and an invocation dance lined up.. January is gonna be a month of dance. One of my friends is back.. My first training batch is over. Lots other things make me really happy too. This blog is named contrast as i have compared above the weather of yesterday and today.. My life works the same where I crib and the next moment i feel happy.. So.. There is some global warming happening inside me too !!!

Hey. I ve been thinking of a topic to blog on for ages but its never happened.. Bloggers out there.. Pls help me.. Until then......

Cheers

SPEAK YOUR MIND !!! Guest Post 2

2009-12-07T20:27:00.000+05:30

Hi everyone!

It is my turn to disappoint everyone who came here to read a perfectly written article with lots of emotions and elegant words by charming Ms. AJ. 'Post Purchase Dissonance!' That’s not happening this time. You are here to read the words of a very confused and a sluggish big boy. That’s right you are reading an article which was due last week.

I should probably begin by thanking AJ for this opportunity but I am going to save that for the last. Let’s speak about something important. Shall we! Something very critical. Something that defines us. (Yes I know that you have heard about speaking your mindfor a loooong time and from looots of people.) But interestingly enough most of us are not doing a good job at it. Come on let’s be honest about it.

Ok! Let me start. I am really bad at it. More so I did not realize I was not doing it for a long time. I always believed speaking your mind was rude. And that I should never offend anyone, especially friends (Yeah I know am a nice guy :-) ). What I failed see was there is something which I was giving up all the time! My Right! Right to speak! Right to my have my opinion and more so Right to define myself.

Let’s see it in very simply way, things that happen with our friends. How many times did we have to go to a lousy movie just because our so called gang of friends wanted to see ? How many times did we have to do a shitty favor of buying a gift for a friend’s girl friend just because he doesn’t have good taste(well …when it comes to buying for women, who does?) or how may precious minutes in our life have we lost doing something we never wanted to do ? How many opportunities have we missed because at the right time we were not able to say what we wanted to? I could just go on.

I remember when I was in my 1^st year of engineering a very young lecturer put this in a nice way or should I say very understandable words for my age at that time “If you like a girl don’t just stare at her and do favors for her. Tell her how you feel because sooner or later some Shahruk khan will appear out of nowhere and take her away” Sounds lame uh? Maybe! But this statement made a me realize a lot of things at that time. (BTW I did tell her and yet Shahruk khan appeared. That’s a different story)

Never ever worry about hurting your friend by speaking your mind. If you don’t hurt them that once! You’ll end up getting hurt a lot more times. Finding it very difficult to say NO? Go through this article: www.bbc.co.uk/relationships/improving_your_confidence/exercise_mind.shtml. It might help.

Having a different opinion and yet doing quite the opposite, just because you could not speak for some reason, is really like insulting yourself. When you voice your opinion and choices you define yourself, you are letting everybody know what you are, what you want and how you think. When you define yourself, the society aligns itself to accommodate you. I agree there might be some lose in this process but it could not be bigger than losing your identity.

Not just with friends, with your family and especially at your work place. It is always better to let your preferences and choices be known. Voice your concerns! You might not just be doing yourself a favor but also helping out others who are not confident enough to do it on their own. Do not commit to anything you are not comfortable with.

If you observe it closely it all comes down to believing in yourself. You can not define what you are if do not believe you are worth that or if you think what you are defining is not worth enough. We know life is short, let’s not waste it on making everyone happy by suppressing our own interests. You might not get time in life to live like you want and do what you want, if you don’t speak your mind.

And why am I talking about this on AJ’s page??? Let me tell you! I have known AJ for almost 3 years now, sharing a classroom for 2 of it. I have never seen her doing something she did not want to do. I know what all she’s been through and never once have I ever seen her not standing up for what she believed in. That is something I have always admired about her and something which she inspires me with.

@ AJ: Congrats on your 1 year of writing. Keep going! And thank you so much for the opportunity.

Cheers

What is our aim in life?

We often try to predict the future based on the past but neither one exist. Both are illusions. There is no past. There is no future... The only thing that exist is the present state.

Furthermore none of us do not even know what we really want in life. Our real desire is to meet life as it is, even though we don't understand what that means. Through this invisible cord of dreams we are all connected to another world - a place beyond description, space, time, cause and effect.

This same cord vibrates in different frequency leveles when our emotions are manifested through the times of sadness and happiness, loneliness and togetherness.
These emotions might even bring out different emotions in us but our subconscious mind dosent really know what makes us happy or sad, it just expresses itself based on the emotion that we run through the chambers of our brain and the response action because of this expression is entirely based on OUR decision on how we choose to respond to the world.

Are we going through a dark phase in life and are we expecting a light beam in our downtrodden present state of mind? Does it look like the end?

Believe me! rather; believe in yourself!! It is just the beginning.

Lessons From Life - 1

2009-11-11T21:28:00.002+05:30

Heyi,

If the title of the post gives an image that its yet another post on my own philosophy, the answer is no. I did think I should not write it here. But I felt that sharing this kind of experiences would also help others console themselves if they have experienced the same situation.

Suddenly, yesterday, I was goin through a lot of nostalgia. Though nostalgia has become part of my life for a few days now. Its because I work in the place where I completed my post graduation. A few places in the campus do gimme glimpses of our presence over there. Now its like jus me in that place. Leave that apart. So, when I felt this I thought about people who did be an important part of my life jus left me like that, and people who genuinely loved me, I neglected. Thats where this started, the lesson learning.

I have this very good friend of mine, Call him "SK" I d even say my best buddy, who i met during my Undergrad. He was like any other guy, but was always extra careful with my things. I wouldve mentioned him enough number of times in this blog cause he plays a major role in my life apart from my parents and my special someone. It might look like am jus exaggerating it. But its not, there are moments we feel happy when some one cares for us. Genuine Care. I spoke to him lots thru the day, took his advices, studied with him, freaked out too. He always had an eye on my future and my development. Once he left for his studies outta town, our correspondence drastically reduced. Though we did share the same kinda companionship for each other. In that point of my life 2 people got introduced.

These two people I wouldn like to mention names, may be call them KR and DJ. They were very nice to me, one was a great freak out pal and the other, a big brother. I did share a nice bond with them and luckily a great rapport. At this time i started neglecting my best buddy SK for no particular reason. But he still was the same to me and i was the same to him too. He craved for my attention which i din give him as much as he deserved. Rather gave attention people who I thought deserved it. One has left me because of his girl friends orders and the other has left me for no reason. The best part of it is that, they din have the guts to tell me that they had a problem and needed a break from me. If it was mentioned polite enough i wouldn jus have given a damn. I woulda surely been concerned bout their lives. Rather, both of them jus stopped talking to me one day and jus din reply messages. It took me a lot of persuasion time to know reasons.

Today, I am left with him again. My best SK. You wouldn believe I called him yesterday and promised him outta the blue sayin that i d talk to him daily once atleast rather than once in 2 or 3 days and give him the time and attention he always longed for. He still is the same, even after my this kind of weird behavior. He still waits for my time, gives me his best side, and remains my best advisor. This is jus a small instance. He called me when i was practising Guitar. I jus asked him if he wants to listen. He was so enthusiastic bout it and said yes and i played to him the only 2 songs i ve learnt, i have got 75 percent. He says super and good for that. Thats where a friend is, a motivator. Makes your day !!!

I know it woulda looked like an emotional rambling, but its all true. Every one does experience somethin like this in some point of his life. The lesson i learnt. "Make the right choice and prioritize, Always stick to it." Thanks SK for being with me so far and also for the years to come.

I intend to write on some nice topic, very soon, so see you back

Cheers

A Day to Remember !!

2009-11-06T21:56:00.000+05:30

Heyi,

It is bright over night !! Wow ! Look at that rhyme.. Hey guys. I came up with that line by the way. So. How u guys been doin.. I ve been doin really great.. Coming to the topic of the day.. A Day to remember..

This was a really tiring, exciting, worked up as well as an enjoyable day in my life. That was Nov 4th. It was a really special day to me. There were a lot of people who made it special nd lot of things too.. Now i ve already told this story to a sizable number of people and this is jus another form of publicity...

Nov 4 th was the scholarship function at SSN. Most of you woulda read in papers too. Kapil Sibal was the chief guest. and Mr.Shiv Nadar, our founder cum Chairman of HCL was present too. He is considered a great man. Till 2 days prior to the scholarship function i had nothin to do with this stuff. My boss jus called me ta help him out to train the volunteers who had to receive the guests and take them on a campus tour. So we started, did it for 2 whole days. The D Day arrived. I also had an invite to join the dinner party as i was an alumni executive member. Though i was mentally prepared to leave home at 5, i jus stayed on for no particular reason and that turned out to be fruitful. I was damn tired that day after a day ful of work and sat for singer Karthik' concert at 7. That was one treat i knew would surely pep my energy levels. And there he came and took me away with his magical voice.. With Oru Malai, Hasili Fasiliye, Vizhi Moodi and the most famous Anjala, he also touched on Mitwa and the Rock on song.. And not to forget his evergreen Manram Vantha.. At the end of the show i left that place with full contentment.. This was one of the nice things..

Next comes this.. My boss' appreciation.. He said Thanks ta me and that i helped him out at the right time.. That was so genuine.. I jus loved it !!

We then proceeded to the Taj Fisherman' Cove. There was dinner.. I had a great time with the alumni committee members.. And then came The moment.. I shook hand with none other than Shiv Nadar. An international figure.. It was nice getting introduced to him.. We also took a pic with him !! It was nice.. At the end of it ! A nice drive on the ECR, in a nice weather, drizzling..

I was back at 12 in the night with a nice contended day. Tired but happy and satisfied !!!

Cheers

2 States...

2009-10-19T11:49:00.005+05:30

Heyi,

Damn Yaar.. I wanted ta share the review of the book first and Sowmi did it first... I have been typin this post for 2 days not finding time ta complete it.. I feel sad.. seriously.. Anyway.. I will share my opinion.

It was about my latest Book.. 2 States by Chetan Bhagat... Its about Inter-Caste sorry Inter State marriages.. A nice light read. But it did make me actually think.. Is it such a taboo to marry a guy from another community ??

This book 2 states was an autobiography. I would not call it a complete autobiography cause there was a lot of drama and fiction added to it(this I call Masala). The story revolved around a Tam Brahm(Tamil Brahmin), a namesake vegetarian girl and a Punjabi kudi boy. Both of them Big heads. IIM geeks. They meet at IIM and fall for each other and practically live together for 2 years. And while leaving decide to convince their parents. Our hero comes down to Chennai first and opens up the trap for her family, manages to trap them too !! While its the madame who finds it difficult with a most unacceptable mother and a present but non existent father. How at last the marriage happens in Chennai.. In the tam Brahm style not to forget the mickey mouse underwear seen through his translucent Dhothi.

This made me think as to if its really difficult adapting to different cultures. For example if a girl and guy from different communities marry will they be happy ? There can be 2 points to it..

Their love for each other might keep them going and they might sacrifice things for each other and adjust too.. brings a lot of mutual understanding and harmony.
They might each expect the other person to adjust, sacrifice and say u do it if u love me and finally you know where it leads you too.

I am not against any inter community marriages though., If there is a lot of understanding Wow. nothing like it !! I also had another hitch. Whose style will the marriage be conducted in? So researching i found that it can be anyway. So, y not both the ways so that there is an opportunity ta get married twice. I know ma just going into too much detail. Still..

This book i finish in just 1 and a half days. And also the book kept me really happy.. that's about the book.. Diwali was fun and i had a great time. Post Diwali was Aadhavan film.. Which i think i would have spit on the screen if not for Surya.

Apart from that work keeps me busy.. Guitar keeps me going.. and my dance performance dates keep me on the move.. But blog is where all comes together so see you soon with another post..

Cheers

Music - An Elixir !

2009-10-18T21:12:00.003+05:30

Heyi,

Quite a number of times you woulda noticed me scribble about Music healing the soul. I am a believer of Music being one of the most powerful things in the world. Not only music, art as such.. Any art form is a skill and not jus a knowledge as one of my friends always says. Not that people cannot learn it but a person who already has the skill has an edge !!!!

So, now why did i talk bout music. thats because yet again i experienced a brainwave i had after listening to music. This time it was soul upliftment and excitement when i hear the Fatak song from Kaminey... Its a must atleast hear once to jus have that feel of jumping !! Apart from that i always feel i have this liking to my music just because it does a lot of emotional changes in me..

The best thing music does when you miss someone is that it reminds of your best moments with the.. Provided you listen to the right kinda music. It also contributes to your sudden joy. The next few songs which have made impact on me for 3 days now are the Hasili Fasiliye from Aadhavan, Bhoola thuje from Blue etc.. Though these are temporary attractions there are songs which stay with you all through life and giving you the most pleasant memories.

This also reminds me of a small speech the a top ENT gave at a medical conference.. I know you wondering what i have ta do with medical conference.. Nothin technical.. I jus dances at their inauguration ceremony. After our performnce the doctor who runs an ENT foundation said. He jus talked about how two totally different organs with opposite functions are interconnected like the ear and mouth. And then he said that there was one thing common to both the organs and that was "Vibration". And he also said that art forms like music and dance spread a lot of positive vibration. And that even differently abled people can sense vibration and that music has no limitations. Thats when i realized how important it was.. Music Soothes the Soul. OKie.. Thats for now. Am crashing for the day. before that pls to listen ta Fatak !!

Cheers

Diwali Diyas !!!

2009-10-16T20:41:00.004+05:30

Heyi,

Am writing to jus let down all my nostalgic feelings.. Before i go ahead, i wanna wish all my readers a very very happy and safe diwali.. I write here in the eve of Diwali with a lot of satisfaction, contentment happiness at the same moment a heart full of memories and a distant nostalgia..

This is one nice set of diyas i came across and i though i would display it here...

Today, I had a great day.. Wake Up Sid with friends, West Side shopping and Ice creams hogging made my day. It was yet another typical holiday but turned out ta be such a nice day.. So apart from that its Diwali eve aptly Deepavali.. Its tradition to light lamps, visit family and friends, make and share sweets, burst crackers and wear new clothes. As usual all these things have a story behind such celebrations.. Lord Krishna Killed a demon Narakasuran and people celebrate his death as Diwali.

S0, wats the nostalgia all about. Its about my the Diwali get together at my maternal grand ma's place. That was till she was alive. My moms family is really big with her 7 brothers and so i have a lot of cousins !!! That makes a hell lot of under one roof on one evening shouting and jumping and literally hogging the sweets which our kutti mami makes. Our fights for the share of payasam, chase to keep the first rocket, and around 10 of us running at the lighting of an atom bomb.. There was a phase when i used to light the crackers in hand and throw them.. Jus to depict heroism.. Used to come back home so dirty withy hands grey, have a wash and indulge in every savory made early in the morning. I even remember having competition with my old apartment neighbor, my close friend for keeping the first cracker in the morning.. I used always win cause i used to be down at 5 to start bursting.. These memories still gimme tears when i see a diwali with jus 4 of us now.. Though my family members come for diwali, it will never be like my paatis house and all of us there together again.

Though now i am gifted to live in a nice big apartment with 72 flats and so many kids around bursting crackers.. Makes it a lively festival place.. And the spirit always keeps goin on..

For now, I don burst much crackers.. I jus wear my new clothes and burst some as par of tradition and have a nice relaxed Diwali.. go temple, see films on TV, talk ta friends, visit some family members and jus have a nice festive day..

So, yet again have a great diwali.. light a lotsa diyas and make ur home and life colorful and bright.

Cheers and Lights

Return of the Busy Bee !!!

2009-10-13T13:10:00.000+05:30

heyi,

The busy bee is here with a quick news post about herself and a nice long interpretation of something she jus came across.. So, the busy bee refers to me. You know y we use the words busy and bee in sequence as a phrase. The female bee is always occupied, as usual as in other species where the males do nothing at all and the female goes around and does everything. Ok, lets not start an argument and debate about it.

And here comes the news.. Though its late, its latest. I ve started learning guitar. This i feel is such a romantic and sexy instrument. Makes anyone fall for it. I wanted ta learn guitar, jus because i love the sound and feel of it and started on vijayadasami. I ve gone for 2 classes now and playing exercises and a little chords. Actually ya feels nice. So thats one major thing keeping me happy.

I just came across a couple of people who said they have separated from their other halves due to various reasons and that its a waste getting married. Though i am not married yet and may be i dunno too much about the intricacies of marriage i seriously think life is incomplete without it. The reasons for a marriage not working out could be enormous, Lot of them are even just excuses. This probed me to write the post cause i even saw a movie, "He is not just that into you". I was about a lot of relationships goin haywire, One married man falls for another girl and feels like never before. And the other doesn believe in marriage at all, but can just say live together. I jus am tryin to figure out. Do these things seriously happen. I don say that a married person should have no desires but it does make a difference when you are married. Is marriage not a commitment and a promise which is meant to be kept.

There might be certain exceptions where all marriages don end up being successful and there are places where there is a lot of abuse and misuse of a marriage happening. There might also be betrayal and loss of trust between couples. But this doesn happen with everyone does it ?

Recently i had one of my friends, one of the most eligible Indian bachelors abroad getting married. As soon as he was married, he left abroad with his wife. And there she revealed that she was not ready for a marriage and that she needed time to accept him. At this juncture, i had a serious question. What did she think marriage was, jus glitz and spending? I was jus thinking how the parents of the girl woulda felt. Having invested so much time and money in a wedding how would it be when the girl shows this kinda attitude. Leave time money or any other material loss. Did that girl ever think of the guys plight. Thats where i say marriage should be understood properly. There is no place for any selfishness here. Its all about care and concern is not it ? There were these thoughts rushing in my brain. and jus wanted ta write it down.

By the by life is good, a bit hectic and tedious though. Awaiting Diwali for a break !!!

Cheers

Golu Golu Sundal !!!

2009-09-25T23:11:00.001+05:30

Heyi,

Yet again !! I have been planning to write a post for quite a long time now. I did have various topics in mind and it became outdated. Every day i missed writing gets counted. So, today i decided to write whatever was there in my mind. I might fall asleep anytime in front of my lappy, but its ok.. I Strive to work until i collapse... !!!

SO, Whats UP !! Ungaathula Golu Vechurkela !!(Have you kept golu at your place).. Engaathula vechurkom ! Tamboolam vaangika vaango !!(We have kept a golu at my place and so pls come home !! ok ! SO, does that sound as though am taking some vague language. am talking Tamil.. These are the "IN" phrases used by everyone this season.. Dussera.. or Navarathri as we call it.

Navarathri implies Nine Nights and says. where the Goddess' Lakshmi, Durga and Saraswathi are given importance for 3 days each. During Navarathri toime. Golu or aptly "Kollu" is kept. This is the asembly of colorful dolls in odd number of steps. Nowadays golu is not just restricted to steps. It also extends to parks, thematic representations, lot of creativity. There are people who spend 2 months to just prepare for this. We have also incorporated the well acclaimed Dandiya Raas to our night nights. This tradition initially followed in north india not is wide spread.

I actually atarted writing this post when navarathri started but am able ta finish it jus now, where 6 days of navarathri has gone. Normally during every Golu time there are a series of visits which the women of the house make and also invite. It remains a festival of reunion. Not to forget the festival of sundals. Sundals are different types of Dhaal cooked in variety ways. A major event which happens during this time is a showcasing of talents. he kids are dressed up traditionally and are asked to sing songs for the Golu wherever they go. I feel its so special and sweet too !!

There are people who feel navarathri is waste of time and jus spending !! But i don feel so. It give so much happiness and self satisfaction. This is was about it. Am off ta leep but befor that i would like ta show u my house Golu.. !!!

PLus there is an extension !!!

SO See ya with the next post

Cheers

Shri Gurubyo Namaha !!!

2009-09-06T14:25:00.002+05:30

Heyi,

Shri Gurubyo Namaha !! "I salute to my teacher". This is a line which is often heard at a lot of concerts, programs.. We use it to salute ones Guru.. "Guru" means "Teacher"[for the benefit of those who do not know].

Yesterday was teachers day !! I had planned surprises for few important people in my life but couldn make it because of my health. Though, its not jus i have jus that one day ! Teachers day is jus like another Mothers Day and Fathers day and a friendship day. Its not that we remember them only that day, Jus that a day we dedicate to them..

Teachers are one of the very important people in our life. A Good Teacher is one who imparts knowledge, a great teacher is the one who Inspires.. All good teachers are not great ones though. I ve come across my fair share of teachers all through these 19 years of education and a few great teachers who have made a mark in my life. Hats off to them !! I still call them on Sept 5th.. I do wish them on their birthday !!. Apart from academics i was always into Dance and music. In places of art a guru plays a very important role. She is the one responsible for the Sishya(Student). She is an inspiration.

So comin to the point. We would never think of thanking our teachers. We might feel its their duty. But its not jus duty that they perform. Its passion. So, the list begins..

First Of all Stands Amma.. A mother is always the first teacher of the kinds.. Teaches us how to walk, speak, eat, bathe, wat not !! Hats off Mom !!!

I thank all my primary teachers.. Ms.Sunitha, Ms.Fraser, Ms. D'Monte, Ms. Ceaser, Ms. Michelle, Ms. Rathna.. They played a very important role in putting the basics on to our head and mainly improving my handwriting. It was bad [Now its good, thanks ta them] I ve got it on my knuckles with a wooden scale !!!

My unforgettable School where i learned the so much out of life.. Rosary Matric.. Remains the best teacher ever to me..

Middle School.. I was a BRAT! I sit on veranda walls, behave like a rowdy(gangster).. These ladies found it hard but atleast half accomplished in teachin me a qualities of a girl.. Ms. Anitha, Ms. Punitha, Ms. Antonet, Ms. Stella, Ms. Sheela( A GREAT teacher), Ms. Jayashri(she made me fall in love with geography), lot more..

High School.. Ms. Maria, Ms.Sudha, Ms. Mercy(Maths.. I was always a centum holder), Ms. Ramani(Unforgettable English), Ms.Meera(Right from Middle school-Sanskrit, The most patient person who put up with any nonsense i did and liked me so so much), Ms. Helen(Called us all dumbos)..

Apart from all this..My Music teacher at school Ms.Shyamala.. With her i spent half my school life in the piano room learnin so many new songs !!!

School time always had tutions.. And my tution teachers i would never forget include Diwakar, Arasu and at middle school where i never knew their name but always called them Miss..

MOP Vaishnav Graduation.. here faculty i d say din make a big impact on me but sure they improved my confidence levels and if i have so much Guts, its because of the course i did and the college i did it in !!

SSN.. My PG program MBA.. Here faculty did make a lot of difference.. I learnt a lot of professionalism from most of our faculty who walked in.. Mr Balasubramaniam(HOD), Mr. Kasturirangan, Mr. Shekar, Mr. Rajan. Apart from them.. Mr.Kannan(Gives a lot of valuable insights personal and work related), Ms.Vijaya Mani, Vani Haridasan, Mr.Mahesh Doraiswamy, and Mr.Srinivas Gumparthi..

There is a conspicuous absence? Mr.Srinivasan. I din put that up cause he still remains my teacher !!! I do learn a lot from him..

Then leaving behind academics, I should thank my dance teachers Ms.Kousalya who groomed my basics, Ms. Meenakshi who still remains one of my best teachers and a great role model for my dance.

Here is a list i made rattling my memories... Thank You so much all of you for making such a difference in my life and grooming me into what i am today !!

THANK YOU !!!!

Cheers

Ganapathi Bappa Moriya !!!

2009-08-23T10:22:00.003+05:30

heyi,

Today is ganapathi's day.. Vinayaka Chathurthi.. Ganesh Chaturthi is the celebration of the birth of Lord Ganesh. . Before we start any work, We pray to Lord Ganesha.

"Ganpati Bappa Morya,Phudchya Varshi Lavkaar Ya".

At home pooja was done as usual. But it was not usual. Cause mom was not there. Mom is outta town. So, i had an opportunity to use my cooking prowess. Todays menu was Drumstick Sambar, Rasam, beans carrot for vegetable. The special was the payasam which i had tried for the first time. It came out very very well.. Good Me !! Mom would be very happy ! And my whole family ate wel !

Though everythin went properly in place. The whole house missed amma.. A festival without mom at home is so so so so silent. And she is so full of activity and we landed up so bored.. Still.. There is a full day to go !!

Today am leaving on my first official trip ta coimbatore.. Tensed and excited.. catch u soon with my next post.. Which is" POST 50 "

Cheers

The 20-20 Tag and Baby Krishna

2009-08-12T20:34:00.005+05:30

Heyi,

This Topic is somewhat same as Sowmi's I stole it from her. I liked it though. Twenty twenty reminds all of u about cricket. But i remember the money they jus spilt over it and the amount of wastage for people to be entertained.. And how they spoilt the authenticity of a game. Leave that apart. my this 20-20 is wat sowmi said.. Ten things i would do in my twenties or atleast dream and aspire ta do.

Work really hard at work place and accomplish wat i have to. This is cause i work on a start up project so at the end of it its like my baby which is born.. I have mentioned this earlier.
Have a great growth in career in a short time.
Earn and Spend, Earn and Spend and do it like a routine.
Make my bro get admission in a International University For Automibile Engg
Marry.. Cant Wait for it.
Go See alps with my Hubby.
Make a mark in my dance.
Furnish the house wherever I live in with a theme like Italian or Mediterranean
Make my mom, dad and my well wishers say "She Has Achieved It" "Look At her"
Be Associated with some National Art and Culture Division like some consulate or embassy and make people aware of Indian culture.. DO Culture training

Actually there are a lot more.,.. I Will add more in some coming posts. As for now i had a really really long day and i am tired.. Today being krishna Jayanthi. I rushed back from work and went for pooja. And my mom had arranged a Bhajan session. Relaxed me so much.. I was singing and all my senses revolved around baby krishna.. There was this cute baby in my flat. Dressed like baby krishna... . I jus couldn take my eyes off him... He was jus runnin here and there like naughty krishna...Here is his pic.

And that was a busy day with a nice ending... See you soon...

Cheers

A Really Rewarding Day !!!

2009-08-06T21:45:00.002+05:30

heyi,

Long since i blogged.. and the secret behind it is that i ve stated on on some really serious work.. Aishu is getting responsible huh !!!.. Anyway. Jokes apart.. WOrkin on a start up project is kind of a totally difference experience.. I feel so happy and the end of most of the days as i feel i ve initiated and done some stuff atleast. As my sir always says.. Put on a thinking Hat !! Come on get cracking and all.. It might sound silly actually to hear such stuff.. But that moment when we seriously need some one to say START !!! It actually sounds really good..

My everyday starts with some serious discussion with Sir and an agenda for the day until lunch may be.. and with his typical sentences (get crackin.. and all that). That gives that rush of adrenalin for us ta work on it and finish it. A hell lot of fone calls and follow ups Follow(pun intended) !!!

And then reporting and discussing and puttin on a thinking and a proof reading act for all our copies ads, mails, scripts are made. And yet again an array of things follow.. I do different things i know. But never have i felt so good after doin so many things.. Even though may days start at 6 in the mornin and end at 6 at the earliest in the evenin.. Though there is some tiredness in my body.. My heary is as fresh as ever.. Courtesy, my sir.. At his 50s he is fresh.. Does to to to to many things which i would even dream of doing..

So whats special bout today ? When you work and line up certain things and when you want certain things to happen and it HAPPENS.. Thats the reward u get for the effort behind this.. There have been days when i felt bad that things din work out.. but still.. Its nice ta be doin a variety of stuff..

Its also when the whole thing is done and u see the full result.. Its like ur baby u ve wholly concieved.. have i over talked.. Sorry over written? I don care though.. Am signing off now..

Cheers

Unknown Fear !!

2009-07-27T17:09:00.003+05:30

heyi,

Greetings to everyone.. Its a Monday Evening.. And we are all jus back from work.. It was half a day of monda mornin blues and rest of the day of weekend tiredness.. Its now become the reverse.. People are tired after a weekend rather than working days cause they dump all their five days extra work to thet small sunday or saturday.

Am jus thinking of somethin to write in this post.. But am not able to come up with a theme.. So i am jus rambling whatever comes to my head.

Unknown Fear.. whats this thing.. It cant be explained. It can only be experienced.. I experienced it for quite a few days .. Though my mom kept sayin.. Anythin has a solution i still had that fear. I am very much worried about the smallest thing which is not of much importance while i leave a lot of big things behind or solve them in a jiffy and jus walk over it.. Nothin has ever threatened me so much.. In my opinion i was a Knows all, Does all person .. Very confident.. But these small hits come.. There would be somethin very small which jus blows ur confidence down and says "Come Down To Earth ", "Dont Float".. Thats wat happened to me too..

So be careful guys.. No One knows when the tide would hit us...

Cheers

Whats Up With Me !?!?!

2009-07-21T21:42:00.003+05:30

Heyi,

I actually wrote the first two lines yesterday and dozed in front of my lappy. So, today i jus thought I ll continue.

I blog today outta happiness and contentment... What is there to be so happy about? Work.. Work Gives Contentment and that gives happiness..

So what was up with me for two days were a fresh set of experiences. Yesterday i went ta my college. Worked on loads of different things and at 5 went for a meeting with my boss on ta Velachery. The meeting was at Pizza Corner/Coffee World where we were meeting two others. I wanted ta really play it safe and not eat anythin and jus dodge with a coffee but O God... I landed up ordering a sandwich outta pressure. My major aim was to not mess myself while eating and avoid embarrassment. There is where i felt the need of re-polishing my dining etiquette. Its not that am an indecent eater. But i feel better with Coffee or a Shake rather than Sandwich and Pizza. Cant Use Fork, Cant Use hands.. The confusion already makes me hate the sandwich.

Actually i also realized that the Meet and Eat Columns in magazines and newspapers are of some value and they need ta be read regularly. They might even teach us how ta eat a sandwich without messing up. But, thank God, I din Mess Up. Jokes and sandwich apart. The meeting went really good. Was able ta grasp a lots of things from my sir as well as our guests.

Next was today, Wednesday,.. I jus realized work could be so much fun. It was so packed and there was so much learnin that we did. I jus loved it. Sat thru a BPO training Session to get a hands on feel of it. Trust me, the process of accent neutralization is amazing. The English Language without the Mother Tongue Influence sounds really cool. SO, There was a lot of learning which i did today too. I have another 2 busy packed days ahead. I will share my experience of these three days together after that.

I also think my weekend would be packed. Hoping to meet my friends. See you soon..

Cheers

Feeling Low !!!

2009-07-15T21:06:00.002+05:30

Heyi,

Am jus kinda half out of a trauma. I jus dunno if its trauma, fear, unnecessary confusion, or irrelevant thoughts or were they real. But i jus figured out that nothin is so wrong with me and am putting myself into disturbance when its not needed. Thanks to my mom dad and the doc.

Basically, I am undergoin a rootcanal treatment for my tooth. And all weird things happen inside my teeth and my mouth. This bothered me to the maximum extent. Actually previously to this nothin has ever bothered me. But this kinda made me stressed and depressed. I still dunno y.. Seeing the state of affairs my dad fixed me up with a doc who could say wats wrong. The doc said everythin was pretty normal. Still my mind has certain disturbances. It will take me sometime ta come outta it though.

But now am kinda OK. The major cause being my mom. My Mom has always been my greatest source of inspiration. She is a person of so much strength and so much calibre i haven come across in anyone till now. So, she has been with me this whole couple a days. More than me being cured her aim was to not let me loose any confidence in me or any of the little boldness also I always have. Even now she keeps sayin the same thing over and over again. She asks me ta read the book on positive thinking which i used ta suggest for people, She fed me my lunch, she even put up with the hell lot of torture i put her under. From even now, I am learnin.. Boldness. What i have is so less when compared to her. She has in mind so many things, problems but she doesn care. She jus solves everythin so easly when i sat and probed over jus the one issue i had. I would always want to be like her. Though i am like her, now i feel bad cause i din keep up my standards. I will surely be normal soon. Am starting work and i shd be normal really fast too.. I will forget everythin. I wanna be normal.. Couple a days now I ve been a cry baby.

M0m always says, There will be times even when the most perfect and most gifted person could feel low. Its upto u if u take it as somethin important or jus dismiss it as yet another small stepping stone. And she also said. Always when u think there is a problem for u. Say to urself "Count Ur Blessings" a number of times and self hypnotise urself. She said We will surely feel higher. She had followed it and she had always felt better. Though these things are really small small ones the amount of strength it gives might be really high. I am sure she ll bring me outta this completely very easily very soon. Thank you mama. I love u.. I will learn from u...

Cheers

Congratzzz !! (to see for who it is, Read the Post)

2009-07-10T08:55:00.003+05:30

Heyi,

I know its so stupid of me ta not mention the person whom the congratzz should reach to in the post. But how else to make u read further ???

you know wat? I got my first salary ever. Though i ve left the job. First is First. Someone has paid me for somethin i ve done !! So, i am all excited bout it ! Though, i ve only got the cheque and it will take a day or two ta get cashed its still even nice ta see good money.

Now for the latest, As i told i would spend time with blogging after this. Am jus gonna do so..

In this post i heartily congratulate my co-blogger, class mate and top it all my very nice friend Sowmiya Sekar !!!! She has completed 100 posts and has hit the century.. Both of started together and she did a lot more blogging than me and here i am coughing to hit the 50th post.. That shows dedication is not it !! People say u ve got no job so u blog. But do they ever know that quite a few blogs are so popular and is also used for publicity(psst.. psst..).. Its to tell them That is the power of blogging world. And am happy my darling friend is very comfortably part of it.. She has also made friends with a lot of great bloggers and improved her blogging vocab and writing skills a lot... Thats called using an opportunity in a positive way. !!

Apart from all this, am jus gonna do somethin i like soon. I don wanna give myself promises until its decided. and i ll get back ta u soon..

Cheers

After the Long Prelude !!!!

2009-07-01T21:22:00.003+05:30

heyi,

After a long gap, i am back here with a blog post. My job kept me off the system.. But from next week am plannin ta be actively back ta blogging, dancing, movie seein, readin, sleepin, and ok.. any other job for that matter.

I seriously am still not able to judge the reason as to y i ever took up a job and am leavin it in a month. There are many reasons i would not like to disclose here as its a public reading spot.. But ya.. Some inner intuition said i d be happier without a job for sometime and that ma not that

desperate for a job. So be the case..

Leavin that aside, I actually hinted i d be writing somethin bout my Family Day here and write a post on family which i never had time ta do.. Today also it would be jus a partial fulfilment of the requirement( HR !!!! SSSHHH !!)

My Family day has been my most memorable day of the year. I jus hope it happens every year. My Hardwork din go waste. And here is the Family tree i made.

So, Wats with having a big family.. Is it a boon or a bane..

Definitely there is nothin in the world like having a big family and so many people sharing your same blood group. For me, i love my family.. I actually always want them ta be happy cheerful. I want people ta continue relations for various generations ta come. Right now the concept is nuclear families, so the kids do not have anyone ta look up to, while at that times a family had 9 to 10 siblings.. My moms family being a great example. So, this being the case my family day was like Alumni meet. I would always want people around me..

During my marriage, my happiness would be when all my cousins come for my mehendi, dance, my uncles and aunts choose my saree colors, my jewels and finally be around with me in the most memorable part of my life.. That too my family.. Ha.. the loudest area would be the area of my family members.. and i love that.. We all love attention. So thats for it.. This post brings nostalgia ta me..

So, hoping to see u people from next week, more regularly with more stuff and using a bit more of my small brains.. until then

Cheers

Clumsy !!! Very Clumsy...

2009-06-19T23:35:00.003+05:30

heyi,

And, i finally got my small own sweet little time for myself ta blog today.. As a general note i would say.. This post is gonna be one of my Clumsy posts.. I am jus thinkin y don i label them clumsy if possible. Ok Chuck that. So i had one of my really really hard days. I don wanna mention my activities here.. But the evenin was kinda crazy rush. Where i landed up completing my at last Family Tree for our D day tomo.. I ll have ta wait til 10 o clock for the print tomo.. I ll surely put it up after the day ends tomo here for my bloggers viewing.

Apart from that it was as usual tiring day. Kids and cousins around the house, more tiring but really happy.. I actually am starting to hate my temper. I am short tempered and loud but tryin to reduce it is ending up in a disaster for me.. I shouted so badly at my nephew today which i normally don do. It was his mistake too but i shouted too much.. Anyway i will try and reduce..

Next, I am so so so so tensed. About my whoevers Exams which are commencing tomo. And the Family Day also. All of us have worked towards it so much. Me, My mum and one a my cousin.. to put it together took a helluva effort. So we are jus hopin all falls in place.. and everything goes well..

And we ve come out witha latest idea of putting together all birthdays of all generation family members and their birthdays wedding days and mobile numbers for keepin in touch.. Hey ok.. I ve got some budgeting work ta do.. Am runnin...

Cheers

Chocolate Brownie and Vanilla Ice Cream !!!!!!!

2009-06-17T09:16:00.004+05:30

Heyi,

Well well well.. Better late an never... Am late but back with a yummy post..

KIND ATTENTION: This post has nothin much to do with the recipes and availability of the mentioned Dessert. Its lot more than that with indepth meaning..

Ok.. Basically when we think or see or hear about a chocolate brownie what comes to our mind is the magic it does to our senses and taste buds.. Hot and cold, Soft and creamy, a bite and a melt.. OK.. Keeping in mind the wellness of my readers am not tempting u people anymore.. But did we ever think why that combination is such a hit or why it is ever made...??

I ve thought of it and i ve come out with a unique perspective.. Again its my archaic viewpoint.. So. I came up with this stuff jus because i was so badly craving for this dessert for a week now and i finally had it on Minda.. I had it with a person who was giving me a lotsa insights on my life and my problems.. Thats when this thought arised.. This dessert is jus like our life.. HOT and COLD.. All of us know there are two sides to life.. Though we haven thought of it very seriously.. So when we jus take a bite.. we feel chillness that we have done it but still we at times burn our toungues.. the same way in life when we get into somethin, there is somethin we have to lose too.. My friend always says.. If u want somethin u should be ready ta sacrifice too.. I wouldn say the brownie is a curse but its like a new lesson in life.. We learn from our mistakes.. When i normally order a brownie.. I order jus to relish it.. Life is the same way.. The only difference is that we don order it but its gifted to us. I know u people will surely curse me for complicating a dessert so much but still... U ll remember me everytime u see the brownie..

There are people around me who hate this combo.. I know they aren part of human.. they gotta be like that Gandhi's monkeys where they should close their eyes nose and mouth and walk around.. They actually qualify to be my enemies but its ok.. I cant hate them jus because of the brownies issue..

So i was jus thinking... Though i burnt my tongue once with a brownie thats the dessert i love like crazy.. I am gonna take life the same way.. I ll learnt ta live and take decisions properly after learnin from my mistake.. So thats it for now..

I ve gotta get back ta my buggin life... Hey i forgot.. We are gonna have a family day at home this coming saturday and am editing fotos ta make them a family tree.. So i am jus thinkin of writing a post on FAMILY.. So here i give u the clue and an option ta read my next post or not..

And here is ur piece of the brownie from above.. I ve had MINE.... !!!!!!!!!

Cheers....

Lot of Activity !!!

2009-06-07T22:58:00.002+05:30

Heyi,

Today was a Great day. And i feel happy starting my blog in a positive way. So. Wat made it Great? I jus went in the mornin ta my dance class. As usual with sunday mornin blues. And suddenly my Guru asks me if am free ta perform at a function this evenin and i said yes.. There started the adventure. Last minute practice, one of the ornaments lent somewhere and frantically bought back, adventure of self make up and hair do and reaching the place half an hour after wat we planned(though the prog hadn begun). So that was it. It was a day full of activity.

So, next was another good news.. My darling small sis has jus set her foot on the world of blogging. Finally i think i inspired her atleast a bit to do it. And am happy she is spendin her time well.. here is her Link.Shruthi.

And , she starting a blog made me think.. Why do people start blogging. Cause when i started a blog i was in the middle of heights of boredom and from wat i conclude on analysis. She has done the same and my friends too. Thats point one..

And in the present few days i ve suddenly encountered people askin me if i blog.. When i jus say yes. They immediately reply "I Guessed it right". And their explanation to it is.. "A Girl who talks so much will surely have something to say to the world".. That made me think. Are a predominant set of people who hang out in blogging world all Chatter Boxes

Thirdly, This is the best reason for bloggin. Cursing and Criticizing a person subtly and from a third persons point of view. You can pour all the nonsense u have against them by typing.

Lastly, its for people who don have time for their personal diaries anymore because of work.. I jus assumed it. Might not be right. Anyway. I would like my blogger friends to contribute more such reasons for Blogging in my comments section. as am jus a but curios to know the reason behind this Hobby.. Am Cutting of now..

Cheers

Satisfaction - Sunday' Bliss !!!!!!

2009-06-05T21:57:00.003+05:30

heyi,

After the end of a tiring day.. I am here blogging to my virtual worl where i nearly existed for 6 months literally. It was the first week or career and also a tight one. Satisfaction.. Thats the word i was yearning for for months and now i see it.. Me being satisfied with my job or not is a different question. But i am satisfied with the 1 week i spent. Cause i had no time ta waste. And i also felt that i was goin to have a very nice weekend as a break when i come home. This was contrary to the weekends i had spent last 6 months where they seemed to be a punishment for me. This was one of the peculiar feelings i got when i was driving back.. I jus thot and realized how workin population jus looked forward to their weekends. It also seemed like somethin they earned for the whole weeks back breaking work.. So, Satisfaction Makes Sunday a BLISS !!!!!!!!!!!

Cheers

Four days off !!! First Day Work !!!

2009-06-01T21:33:00.005+05:30

Heyi,

Too many things clog in my head as i write this post.. cause its been 5 days since i wrote and there were too many things that happened these 5 days..

First, I was off ta bangalore on vacation.. Wow, Kya weather yaar.. We are living in the furnace city.. My return here this mornin was a travel from heaven to hell literally. meanwhile i had a wonderful holiday at bangalore including a night and a day i spent at the Nagarahole forest guest house... here it is..

I know.. It looks really pleasing na.. was pleasing too.. But please, even if u gimme a 1000 crores i would stay there for a night.. I ll die of fear and create History for the same.. we stayed in the most dense forest i ve seen a whole night. No fan , the dimmest lights and additional sound effects including jackal howls, cricket clicks and so so on few of which i mind mentioning here.. The next morning was the early morning safari with the animals of the jungle.. The best part of it was the elephant which came running behind our van like crazy making us grip the edge of our seats and close our windows.. SO hence went the temporary forest life.. I was the happiest when i left that place.. We spent the next two days at bangalore jus relaxing and goin around small places, hopping between my aunts and uncles place.. and getting wet in the rain..

The next segment of my this post is about my first day work.. I have joined a consultancy firm as a trainee to kick start my career in business development.. so.. Its been ages since i left the house.. I left at 9 and was back at 7 30.. I in fact even felt home sick around 4 that i called my mom and spoke to her for sometime.. Apart from all this my first day was quite memorable, i did little work and helped a few other teammates and left for the day with a wide smile on my face..

SO.. Lets see whats my life has got in store for me as i start this new fresh chapter in my beautiful book of life.. I ll surely keep u posted as my blog are my basic thoughts to fill my book.. Until then .. Adios !!!

Cheers

Mixed Experience...

2009-05-26T22:43:00.004+05:30

heyi..

I actually always feel blogging is a really good past time and that i do it when i feel like doin it.. But that feel suddenly stays for a week and the next full week it disappears.. I wonder why am i not able ta give my full commitment here.. Then i realized that it was not about commitment but it was jus not knowing what to write.. I am not able ta think of stories or cook up any for that mater. That's because my this phase of life is so dull and boring that even my creativity has gone for a toss. I ve heard the say "An Idle mind is a Devils workshop". But my mind, though idle is not even a normal workshop.. NO WORK... SO leaving behind all this i packed my bags and left to my cousins place.

Its inside Chennai.. Jus a bit interior though. I spent my weekend there with my Uncle, Aunt and 2 cousins. The elder one being really close to me. That weekends experience made me jus experience so much that this blog is dedicated to that.. "Apartment Complex" That flat where they live is a multi storey, multi block apartment complex housing about 400 flats.(Mine houses 80).. Though my mornin time was spent wholly inside the house.. Evenings to late night made me tired.. It was like seein "Anjali" movie live. This apartment in fact taught me how ta spend time together with ur neighbours, though there are too many to remember names even. A guy from Kwality Walls comes every weekend to sell Ice Creams !!! Where else can u find such personalised things. And the Semi Final and the Final of the IPL was screened in open air like a movie. Burger Man supplying ur dinner!!! Up to 200 people gathered to see the match together.. Wat Sound!!!! It was like sitting in the stadium.. I was jus sitting over the swimming pool wall and enjoying all this. Both My cousins have so many friends.. People play in the park Timing Slot wise.. So many Age group gangs, And the small cute vinayaga temple. This apartment complex took me to a different world for these two days.

There are a lot of disadvantages too.. For example.. The guy in the 5th floor jus above my uncles house is remodelling.. He is giving maximum torture and the family is stressed.. So, anyway i have always lived only in apartments and never gotta be alone.. I don wish to either.. I jus thot i d share this small experience to the outside world who bump on my page..

Cheers

Birthday !!

2009-05-21T22:42:00.002+05:30

hey hi,

I know its pretty late after my birthday that am posting this blog... but certain circumstances led me ta not write yesterday..

So, Yesterday was my birthday.. It started off really well.. i had college though. i had mentioned bout my presentation.. That went really well too.. but i fought and argued with my professor for something though.. Had lunch with frnds and in a nice place..

Evening my family we left to the restaurant infact to my favorite restaurant to find it being closed for good. Next line was an authentic restaurant.. where the waiter warned us a 45 min wait to even get a seat.. And then we landed up goin to the same old Saravana Bhavan.. Though i loved the falooda there,.. I am still curious as to y my favorite restaurant Grains of Paradise is closed for good.. Cause i had been there jus a minth ago.. It kinda made me feel bad..

actually i know this post is kinda not so interesting.. thats because am almost down with fever.. and my head ache is killin me.. But i found it difficult to resist writing somethin to atleast scrape of my monotony in bed.,.

Cheers

Its Raining !!!

2009-05-15T22:43:00.000+05:30

Hey Hi..

There are certain things in life which kinda have a very great impact on me.. They might be really small and sometimes even silly.. and one of those is this rain..

I adore rain. and lightning and even thunder. though i ve read it in science right from my primary, it actually still makes me so curious to know where the hell does the cloud store so much water.. Today its raining here.. It was so hot through out the day.. and u know wat, I had difficulty in even trying out clothes in a shops trial room.. It stuck on ! and out of the blue, there are sudden cloud formations and Drums and disco lights and cute crystal droplets pouring themselves from the heaven.. I know am kinda gettin too poetic.. But thats wat comes to my mind when i see the rains.. I ve been attached to rain ever since i ve known myself. My whole family doesn fancy goin out when it rains and I am the opposite.. I go get drenched.. If am happy i even dance..

Its not jus happiness rain is associated too. Ever been in the rain when u r lonely? its the best feel. they always say "Smile and the world smiles with u and cry and u cry alone" and rain breaks all that say. It cries with u. Makes u feel better conveying the point that am there with u..

I know lotsa people curse rain for the problems it creates.. But rain is always rain and it will always remain so, flushing out the all bad happenings, pouring in all the memories and bringing in the most innocent smile from the heart of every person atleast for once when they see it... So thats it for now and am off to my window to catch up with my darling drops...

Cheers

40 Constituencies are MINE !!!!!!!!

2009-05-14T21:13:00.000+05:30

hey hey hey...

Am Smiling... Guess wat. am done almost with my report and so Operation Project Accompolished.. And so in the mean time i was jus thinking bout a few things that were happenin around..

As u know yest was election.. i did Vote.. Sowmi !! I Voted... Jus thinking back on this election full Naatak, These were the few things that happened in few TV channels

Pre Election

Sun TV... Mr.Karunanidhi gives statements( Hu ha ha ha ha ha), Stills of him showin "Tata" ... Bye Bye.. and he feeds children from his car.. One banana and an egg.. Satthu Unavu(healthy diet)

Kalaignar TV.. All the campaigns of M K Stalin talkin in a hilarious voice. Doesn leave a stone unturned to say Ms.Jayalalitha is whatever whatever....

Not to forget the the most important thing which both the above channels telecast...

Karunanidhis activities from Breakfast to Lunch.. (His Fast)

Jaya TV... This has been one of the most popular channels during election campaign time. Jayalalitha was spinnin to different places every suburb sayin Mr.Karunanidhi and his family are a group of gangsters.. The channel shows documentart on jayalalitha with life history !!! Naalai Namathe Natpathum Namadhe..

Post election

On the day of election when the polls are taking place..

Sun TV.. AIADMK voters cause problem in the polling booth !!!

Jaya TV.. Lot of the Citizens name are not there in the voters list.. This is planned against people who are prospects voting for AIADMK

Kalaignar TV... Mr.Karunanidhi is talking sayin "100 percent victory is mine"...

I seriously have no clue as to what gets into these people only during those 1 month when they start accusing each other and boasting about even having served one child at an ashram which any tom dick and harry is doing right now... its so irritating

Cheers

Operation Project !!!!

2009-05-11T20:39:00.000+05:30

heyi..

I was jus thinkin y did i ever put p such a post(like the previous one).. But am not removing it.. Cause it will tell me later how stupid and frustrated was. And that i have to wake up and stop doin such things. Mistakes are meant to be learnt from..

Ya then ! My this weekend was this really silent one with me and my laptop. and i was thinkin hard to make my project flowery(my friend asks me ta use the word professional) but flowery is enuf for my university. Sowmi keeps rambling things in her blog about the project every alternate day. And i have ta give her a counter. Come On ! its jus a project. Actually both of us were equally tensed and scared when the date came closer for us to submit our rough draft. But now we are jus hurryin things up to jus produce a report.

These almost 6 months of my life on From Dec 23rd.... I would never forget it. Never. I ve wasted the most time in the most essential part of my life. No other Go. I take up a project in a company who aren in a position ta allot place and i have ta work from home. Which in a silent way means.. "Bloody u have no work and so jus ramble up a project.. Don take our heads of.." SO i jus though "O My God,.. am ruined" but then when i looked around and took a survey of my class i jus realized that i belonged to the brighter side of the half who could atleast have little access to company info and had some respect where they went. Many students were forbidden to enter companies as normally Project Trainees are considered the most dangerous Trespassers. I wasn considered a trespasser in the company i did the proj for as they were close ta my dad.. Thanks ta him.

So it jus struck me. Why the hell does the university want to wste 6 precious months of the life of youngsters who are full of energy. Wont a project for a month or 2 suffice. I don thin u can study anythin for 6 month and produce a report. Its gonna be same. Next, we had ta write 8 papers in our pre final sem which is atrocious. We could might as well have appeared a few this sem.

Anyway past is past and wasted is wasted and learnt is learnt. And so If someone from some university reads this PLS for heaven sake "Change the Rules"...

Cheers

Let me go !!!!!!

2009-05-10T11:12:00.001+05:30

Am Confused.. confused, disturbed, distracted, worked up and cryin.. Y am i this way.. y do i have to go thru all this.. Certain things happening to me i don even deserve them.. I am hit, kicked, bruised for no fault of mine.. from all sides of life.. I deserve to be treated better... I want my smile to last..

Don mind this post cause i am really pissed off.. i can jus vent it out typing..

Mumbai Xpress(Experience) !!!!

2009-05-08T18:54:00.000+05:30

Heyi... Am back after a break. A very bad break though. I did miss my blog. In fact even Internet. So am here to narrate the reason behind my conspicuous absence. I had gone on a holiday to Mumbai for 4 days. I can atleast just call it a holiday though it did not give the feel of one. There were a few very good aspects that made me atleast enjoy my break a little which i d like ta mention first. Then i d speak about the rest.

The good things that happen to me were spendin time with a very good family friend of ours. Thanks ta him. He kept the time moving with his knowledge abut literally everythin. Everythin surely has Ramesh Uncles say, and he has a mobile fwd ready for it too. . And not to forget our brainy Aniketh too. Aniketh was with my bro Adithya(bout whom there will eb a separate post shortly) from kindergarden to almost primary. There started our association and it continues.

Ok.. Flashback apart. We went ta nariman point with Uncle and that was an awesome evening walk. The next good aspect was food. Dhaal and aloo methi at Guest house, Chaat at Elco Arcade, the most delicious Gujarathi thaali at Samrat(Uncle's Treat) and the unforgettable Vada Pav and Aam ras on the road shop.. The darshan at shirdi and and the siddhi vinayaka temple where the ganesha still stands in my eyes are worth a mention too. And lastly, the Taxi and Auto Walas don fight. They gracefully take a 10 rupee note and give u 1 rupee back if their meter shows Rs.9(come on its kinda miracle in front of the eye for a person from chennai)..

Rest, Y did not i feel like a holiday. i wouldn be in a position to tell u the full reason. i am kinda depressed bout many things. It was very obvious in Mumbai because it was jus 4 of us unlike here where i have contact to the whole outside world. And mumbai is a goddamn place where u cant even do a H in holiday. I am not blaming the city but ya i am blaming it cause its been one of the most dirtiest places i ve come across till now. Even my native place is cleaner. And the city needs a massive White wash leavin jus a few areas. or may be i had gone there with too many expectations.

Nextly the Holiday started with us being caught in the Chennai city most crowded area guindy in a traffic jam. We had almost missed our flight reachin jus 25 mins before take off. Every mornin in the guest house we had the most silent breakfast and lunch sessions though we were 4 of us belonging to the same family or atleast i din get to talk cause i told u y.. On top of all this HEAT is somethin that would come to my mind when the word Mumbai is uttered. We shopped in the late afternoons and came back famished. I was surely waiting to get back to chennai, my room, my lappy, my blog and my friends and not to forget my project at the end of my four days. But i surely did miss Aniketh cause the kid was almost broken when we were leavin. He was such fun and for a change he calls me Akka so sweetly which even my bro doesn(i do not expect it though).

Apart from all this not ta forget my flight journey.. I watched skies and i loved those moments cause i am an abstract creature who can watch skies for hours together. So thus is my experience in a nutty nut shell, sorry if it was too long.

Actually there is a key take away.. Pls do not go to a metro city for a holiday for heaven(hell) sake. Go to a nice hill station. Jus go to a city if u have people there to chill out. Not ta look around.

Cheers

P.S @ Ramesh Uncle... Uncle, If u r reading my blog.. I promised to give u an answer for a question u asked me in the car on our way back from shirdi.. The answer is my creazy situation and adjoining after effects.. I know u r smart enuf ta understand. Pls Keep it ta urself.. ;-)

See ya

Cashing On Innocence !!!!

2009-04-26T22:09:00.000+05:30

Heyi,

Today is Akshaya Tritiya. I hope U know Wat it is but in case if u aren sure its an auspicious day in the Chithirai month. To know about it more you can visit my friend Sowmis post.

So, How did this suddenly turn up. Then, Akshaya trithiya was a festival day and people donated money or fed poor people. Now, it is a day of spend thrifts buying Gold. And the reason conveyed by them is that their wealth increases and amount of Gold income increases. This is the most amusing and absurd reason a person can give for buying gold.

Where this concept suddenly hibernated from is mysterious and when this all started is very easy to answer. It picked up very recently, if i remember nothing more than 8 years ago when this concept became popular over night. Is not brainless for people to believe in these things.

Coming to the chief issue of this post. I always am interested in the suplementary papers which come along with newspapers. One fine morning a week ago, i just took the newspaper in my hand and found it bulky than the normal. I opened to find inside an annexure with a header AKSHAYA TRITHIYA.. I was Flabbergasted. They normally do this only during New Year and Diwali. Where did this come in suddenly.? I first felt that it was of no use but then those attractive Jewel designs tempted me to look through(Am another Normal Girl too !!!) I read through to find out that it was the biggest marketing Gimmick which can be played with the public ever. With the rising price of gold, and recession taking the front seat, Man ! they advertise Gold for 6 whole Sides of a newspaper. Point number 1: They should be nuts ! or Point Number 2: We, the public should be nuts ! But sometime of reading conveyed what their point was. They were MAKING the public nuts. What cheek they should have to advertise saying "Buy a Gold Coin and get a Silver Coin of equal weight absolutely free" and "Rs.50 less per gram" and "Free Gold Coins, Free ! Free ! Free !" and top it all "Showroom Opens at 7:30 AM on Akshaya Tritiya day" why don't our people ever understand that the marketers are trying to make a fool of us to gain profit for themselves.

Apart from these worthless, meaningless advertisements are newspaper notifications saying Police have setup parking lots and will be actively controlling traffic. This route has been shifted here and that route there. Come on guys! Are you bonkers, You have nothing to do through the day or what. !!! These shops are Cashing on the innocence of people and their superstition. When do we realize that we are being used as pawns on a chess board for them to save their King position. This also makes people who are facing financial problems follow this superstition this increasing their problems.

To my readers who are reading this. If you want to invest on something on this day, invest on Goodwill. Try Making a persons one day meal or a child's education or donate money or give away old clothes. Make a deprived persons day rather than making your neck beautiful for a party.

Cheers

Mehndi Laga Rakhna !!!!

2009-04-26T15:27:00.001+05:30

Heyi,

This blog post today is inspired by the mehendi i got done yesterday for my best friends engagement tomorrow. Its gonna be her day and i start off this post wishing her a happy engagement and courtship period.

Mehndi Laga Rakhna

Doli Saja Ke Rakhna

Lene Tujhe O Gori

Aayenge Tere Sajna

which means

Put your henna on and keep the wedding palanquin decorated.

Beautiful girl, your beloved will come to take you away.

The above is one of the most famous mehendi songs from a bollywood blockbuster. These songs and the portrayal of mehendi function in the movies, makes every girl desire and dream of having a marriage. Mehendi function is an integral part of every Indian marriage. It is also one of the fun part of marriage where all the ladies get together to apply mehendi, sing songs teasing the bride .

Mehendi is normally applied on the hands, legs, arms of the bride as part of tradition on the previous night of the wedding. there are various designs and also designs adapted from different countries. It is part of the culture for over 5000 yrs now and carries a lot of value to a marriage. According to our ancestors, the more darker the mehendi, the more the husbands love towards his wife. And i strongly believe in it. I dunno why, or may be even because my mehendi always turns out to be really dark. I believe in this too. the bride shouldn't do any house work until her marriage mehendi fades away. That too would work to my advantage cause my mehendi in hand normally stays relatively longer.

This is a kind of body art which is not as painful as its other counterparts like tattoo and piercing. It also does not stay longer than a month enabling us to try new designs often.

In Hindu marriages, the brides henna is also more beautiful and intricate than the other ones as it is her special day. The henna time was the few moments before the marriage when the elders in the family gave their advices and pointers for the girl as the applying of mehendi took many hours.

Besides all this tradition, Mehendi presently has become a lavish affair and a status quo. They conduct it a day or two before the wedding and do it in a very pompous way. The bridegroom and their family is also invited(this was done in the past).

Anyway, with this piece of information i gave u am leaving the girls drool over their lovely mehendi functions while i drool over mine. I just cant wait to have that special day of my life with my mehendi. (I know Sowmi, U d already be drooling.. Its Ok, Wake up!!)

Cheers

Chocolates !!!

2009-04-24T22:27:00.000+05:30

Loads of chocolate syrup on vanilla ice cream,
And a bowl of chocolate mousse is like a wonderful dream,
Any chocolate candy brings me great joy,
And chocolate covered nuts feel like a new toy!

Here is my 25th post. Finally i ve reached my Silver Jubilee. I thank all my readers and my sweet friend sowmi and few others who all encourage me to write.

This post was inspired by me eating a chocolate brownie with chocolate sauce. and obvious that i like about somethin i jus love the best in my 25th post. What comes to everyones mind when they hear the word chocolate is sweetness, extremely good taste and the chill running through the taste buds. But from my archaic viewpoint, the word chocolate rings a bell to me in a different way.. "Emotions, Love, Happiness and a tension free heart". There might be lot of myths bout chocolate saying its too much calories, bad for health, sugar trouble and cavity on the tooth.. But i disagree

Being a Chocolate lover myself and an ardent fan of any kind of products even little connected to chocolate i will never allow anyone degrade its name. And why don we look at the positives.?

I am jus such a chocolate freak that i used up more time to research on it rather than my project. People even call me the Chocolate Girl, including one of my Professors. And i always have a chocolate in my bag cause thats the one thing which can help me at any occasion.

I d jus like to share a few facts i gathered during this Choco Research Period.

Chocolate as percieved by everyone is not as addictive as even coffee. its one of the most energetic diet and an adult walk even 150 feet nonstop having jus a single choco chip.
It stimulates our love hormones and its one of the best things you could have to overcome a heartbreak.
Its wholly untrue that chocolate causes acne and adds up to cholestrol, it has no effect on acne, does not affect cholestrol and its proved clinically

Now what makes Chocolate give that 'feel good' factor is that the combination of chemicals(too long to name) which together form stimulants. It directly hits the cells which are responsible for reception in the brain. Chocolate is an anti depressant and it even lowers risk of heart diseases.

Apart from all this research I d rather tell you my own experience. Its my practice to have chocolate before every exam and every dance show of mine. Though those aren the only times i have chocolates. Those kind of contribute as a reason for me to ask for chocolates. As for my favorite ones. Dairy Milk, Kitkat, Perk, 5 Star, BarOne.. and internationally. Hercheys, Ferrero Rocher, Mars, Toblerlone.. OK.. I kind off like any chocolate. I jus gave a list to tempt you guys. cause i campaign for chocolates.

Eat, Drink, Breathe, Sleep Chocolates until i catch u with my next post.

Cheers

Lovely ZooZoos !!!!!!!

2009-04-23T13:45:00.000+05:30

Heyi

Makes you think huh ? And here i present before you my current craze... ZOOZOO !!!!!

Now you might wonder what this is !! This is the latest edition of Vodafone marketing strategy.

These days marketing has become so important that a company concentrates on marketing more than any other functional areas. This takes me back to our marketing and consumer behavior classes where we used to discuss bout " Whats in an Ad" but right now its turned into "Whats not in an Ad" Big Companies for example Pepsi, Airtel, Vodafone all have their other functions right from manufacturing to packaging outsourced while they do marketing inside the company.

Now coming to our Zoozoo.. He has become a heartthrob and an icon overnight after his launch. The few famous services he has marketed include Vodafone Beauty Tips, Phonebook back up, Musical Greetings.. Where the hell do they find these kinda things God only knows. Hats off to their Creative Department. And his name is attractive too.. Apart from all this u know where they have scored. Zoozoo is made world famous by his usage as even emoticons on sites like Facebook and few other community sites.. Apart from there he is being promoted so hard and has become the current brand ambassador.. Who under the sun needs Big B, SRK or sachin when they have the cutest models like this in town. Creating waves with the most innovative campaigns like this Vodafone stands really close to every customers heart(though their services are a bit not upto the campaigns mark). It can be overlooked as the brand always stands strong.. Now thats what people call impressive and Great Marketing.. Hey other players.. Hearing it out???

Cheers

Legendary Actor Dr.Vijay(Read on for explanations)

2009-04-22T13:44:00.000+05:30

hey..

Jus minutes earlier my cousin calls me with a very interesting audio file... he also mailed it ta me.. And Ding! it struck me ta post something about it. This post is really important. Pls do not neglect it as neglectin it might cause u and ur family hazards of viewing a Vijay Film. the audio file is a mock recording done in the form of special news report stating that 15 mins of the recent 'Villu' Film lead to diarrhea, vomiting and people getting hospitalized.

In Mother Earth, there is a country India and the state Tamil Nadu. And Tamil Nadus capital Chennai is the kingdon of Kollywood, the Tamil Cinema Industry. And inside that industry is this Curse in the name of Vijay oopps and sorry its Dr. Vijay. I have nothin against him personally but i am just not clear as to what he is upto lately.

Actor Vijay presumes himself to be the next superstar and all that which he doesn qualify even an ounce for. Am sorry to all the Vijay fans as you might find my post hard to accept as well as would want to kill me right away. But that doesn stop me from writing somethin which would save people from disastrous situations like watchin his movies.

First seeing his positives, He might be a great dancer and a good actor, but with zero utility. There were movies of Vijay I would ayways appreciate but tryin ta be mass and making the audience fools is somethin remotely acceptable.. When people are trying to watch somethin meaninful and take out a message from a film what guts he should have to come out with a movie like Villu or Kuruvi or whatever which carry no relevance.

Somethin which is very important to be mentioned.. Most of his Hit movies have always been remakes of telugu movie. So Scared of taking risks uh?

Villu is a must watch movie as a punishment. It will lead ta severe health problems and will make a person filmophobic.. that was my own term pls don mind. The movie depicts him as a hero who jus comes out of the sand like a whirlwind after he is buried for hours and a guy jumping out of the Goods carriage in the Chennai harbor filled with ice and directly landing in the sea. Hey, Come on yaar what is this. Din he ever feel like laughin when doin these things.

Acting in a film is ok but publicizing one self and glorifyin ones image doesn need movie and such waste of money. Right now the movies he did have no impact on audience and people might even forget them. But no they might remember them in a list of movies never to watch. So pls do be careful readers about goin to a Vijays movie cause i wouldn wanna lose great readers like you..

Cheers

Mom, Dad and the Dude !!!

2009-04-21T22:26:00.000+05:30

heyi...

I just thot of writing somethin really random.. and this struck me.. I ve been observing this and taking different examples for this issue. and here is the issue. Parents And Kids.. Teachin, Learnin, Ordering or compelling What happens between them. It might sound more like the bommarillu or santosh subramaniam film.. But it happens on day to day basis everywhere.

It starts when we learn to walk when we are a baby. We try walkin on our own and facing so many falls. But there comes or mom or dad. They catch our hands and never let us lose our balance. There it begins where we never get to know what pain in life is or what falling down ever did to us. We then come to the toddler stage where our eating habits, writing and reading and reciting is taught.. They feel so proud listenin to us recite things too.. And we too enjoy it as toddlers..

But Just imagine after 15 years doing the same thing !!! Thats what i call Compulsion. Where in a get together the parent suddenly gets all enthu and asks the 15 yr old to sing and dance. or on a dinner table askin them ta do this do that hold the fork this way and the spoon that way. Think of our Facebook teenagers plight. He is on for his rendezvous with his FB Friends maintaining "I am a cool Dude yaar" image.

Next comes the choice of studies. Parents guidance is ok. But is compulsion a bit too much. Though they know better than us(or its jus an assumption in certain cases) the kid has ta have a chance to live their life. There they jus shun everythin sayin adolescent problem. Cme on mama dada... wake up. Kids now are better informed than us.

The kid never gets a chance to live his life on his own until atleast 21 which is almost 1/4th his life.. i jus saw a few instances all this season with my cousins finishing 12 th grade and few people around me in the same position. Above all a basic 14 year old example at home where the house is in splits with his sudden temper tantrums sayin am a teenager and all that..

Though i said all these, they were jus information. My message from this would be

For Parents: Mums and dads wake up huh!! Story boks have been replaced for facebook and ur kid is far beyond normal world.. so jus give them a chance. Even if they fail they ll learn from it and they ll become stronger

For kids(includes me): Parents after all will guide us till 21 max? Its jus the little happiness we give them by granting their small small wishes before our independent life and so jus try not ta hurt them. After all Who loves u more?

so keep thinkin and bloggin until i come up with somethin more random...

Cheers

A Walk to Remember !! :-)

2009-04-17T18:49:00.000+05:30

Love is always patient and kind. It is never jealous. Love is never boastful or conceited. It is never rude or selfish. It does not take offense and is not resentful. Love takes no pleasure in other peoples' sins but delights in the truth. It is always ready to excuse, to trust, to hope, and to endure whatever comes....

This lines have been runnin in my mind repeatedly from the time i saw the movie.. A Walk to Remember. I know i am running in a back log by seein the classic movie so late.. But always, better late then never. I am jus in a movie spree and i happened to come across this movie. I thought it would be yet another love story with a few dates, stolen kisses and happys endings.. But at the end of the 1 hour 45 mins i realized how ignorant i have been.

The movie starts with a dare being performed by a guy to join a 'cool' gang of friends which ends in a disaster. So comes our hero Landon Carter who is about to be expelled but land himself an opportunity to get out of it by doin some community service and bein part of the spring play.. These were things he had shunned all his life. His life this way begins and he gets in touch with Jamie. Jamie is a patient whose days are numbered. There starts the true story as to how they get to know each other and start being friends. As the relationship blossoms and when he comes to know of Jamies long kept secret, he is devasted. He starts living his life jus for her and fulfils every wish she had right from having a tatoo to building a telescope. True love is in the eyes is stressed so much in this movie. He marries her and spends the summer with her until she passes away leavin her miracle(him) behind.

This movie disturbed me so much. It made me think and rethink what love actually is. What we see today in this world is selfish love. A love which happens for great looks, lots of money and physical attraction. But love does mean somethin greater. It means sacrifice, acceptance, commitment and above all LOVE.... True love.. If there is true love u can accept the person as he is and he will change himself as u like cause he will know you are worth it. and this goes to all lvers out there. Do not misuse love, its above every emotion. Even in Dance the first emotion in the list is sringaram(love). So keep loving...

cheers

Ayan- The spoiler of Catch Me if U Can

2009-04-10T11:39:00.000+05:30

hey guys...

And there i went off this tuesday to the theatres with my cousins for Ayan. One of the big blows i got. Rs.120.. I woulda used it for my top up. So here is the movie review for those who wish to save ur money and get ur other expenses covered instead.

First I would like to address the director K V Anand. What did he think? He thought he could jus get away after makin a movie like this?. He uses a plot of one of the most famous Steven Spielberg movie so easily and gets away saying its his own intellect. No one minds him using the same theme provided he doesn make a joke of the original. So much guts to even try making a fool of a blockbuster movie..

To the audience, if u feel u have nothin else ta do and no other movie ta watch or if u d die ta see surya on screen or see tamanna scream pls go for the movie. If in right senses i would advice u against it.. A CD is enough. The movie also starts with them smuggling Thiruttu VCD.. But i jus realize the importance of CD. Rather than wasting on stupid movies we can jus see them on CDs.

The movie on the whole is an entertainer. Jus time pass with not much of logic. And everywhere there is an explanation given as to how this happened and that happened and the rewind the different scenes at least 7 times in the movie. Prabhu has done a great job. Jagan as well.. Surya its obvious is always good.. Tamanna has to learn a lot. She has ta learn as to even how to spell ACTING. She can jus make sexy gestures and may be smile. Thats not enuf for movies. And K V Anand,.. Please do learn how ta make movies and how to remake scripts and pls Do watch Catch Me If U Can once and write Steven Speilberg an apology letter...

Cheers

Jai Shree Hanuman !!!!

2009-04-03T11:20:00.000+05:30

So.. Am back again today.. With the blessings of Jai Shree Hanuman.. Might Wonder wat happen ta me.. Its jus that its Rama Navami today( Lord Rama' Birthday).. And i thought i d put down somethin worthwhile.. There has always been Rama Navami every year but this year is special. Cuz, I ve never done anythin for that day till now except eating chakara pongal(sweet pongal), sundal and whatever the specials are. But this time i am Enlightened as i had mentioned in one of my previous posts and so i sat up writing Shri Rama Jayam in my notebook which i have been tryin ta complete writing for 7 months now. I successfully completed the 100th page today... Century on his birthday !!!

Thats not it.. Today I also wanna analyse a bit about Lord Rama and few of my experiences in relation to him.. Who is he ?? Lord Rama is one of the cutest guys i ve seen on earth. Seriously. The most handsome man who has ever lived. Not Just me, The whole world says so. Whats so special about him? He had the purest heart(Courtesy: my Athai) and that beauty in the heart reflected on his face. My athai has always been my source of stories about the Gods. I still feel i have attachment towards god jus because of her. The whole story of Rama is not just another fairy tale story. Its about Love, Compassion, Courage and what not. And thats why, we hear girls nowadays say "I wanna husband like Lord Rama" though they want boyfriends like Lord Krishna ;).. Lord Rama and Sita were known for their commitment to each other.. Thats bout him.

I ve always had fantasy for Lord Rama and his pictures because they look really good. His Full family with him on the throne(The Ramar Patabisekam) photo has always drawn interest. At that point of tie during my visit to Kumbakonam my dad took me to this one temple, The Ramaswamy Temple, the only place where Ramar idol is the patabishekam kolam after Ayodhya. I would never forget that sight. It was Big Life Size Idols of Ramar, Sita, his brothers and not to forget Cutie pie Hanuman..

Hanuman is my favorite god and this blog cant end without me talkin bout him. He always remains my very favorite person and i live in the area where he resides, Alwarpet and i feel so proud and happy for that. I can walk up ta see him anytime i want.. Thanks Hanuman for my this beautiful life.. And there is my Rama Navami Special.. Jai Bajrangbali !!!!!!!!!

Cheers

Being A Choir Girl !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2009-04-02T17:29:00.000+05:30

heyi...

I always keep up promises and here am back with a very happy happy post... And so.. What did u understand from the title. ??

Choir.. One of the most important and the most beautiful that happened in my school life. I studied in a convent and obviously a convent without choir is like a fish without water. Choir is an organized company of singers. It is mostly in the christian institutions.

Ok now. Explanations done and experience starts...

I joined my school Rosary Matric in my 5 th grade. And they asked me my extra curicullar and i sang some song. So i was taken down to the Music teacher askin her ta make me part of the group. So it started. Half of my school life was spent in the music room. And i also became my music teachers favorite.. Her daughter is my friend too and she used to play awesome Piano. So we started working together. So many songs. every month mass. Everytime assembly. Solos, Groups, Practice.. It was the best part of life. I was recognized for somethin i could do.

We practiced nearly 2 months for 6 hours a day during Golden Jubilee.. No Classes. Few of our class teachers even forgot our existence. Then came the Farewell for our seniors.. and more songs and songs and songs,.. Everyone still recognises me with the song i sang.. Lesa Lesa... It was one of the hits then.. I would never forget to mention our Final Assembly at 12th Grade. When me and my best friend madhu who was also an awesome singer(still she is). We cried in front of the mic while singing and broke down on stage. Even my painist friend did.. Even now we sometimes meet up at her place jus ta sing along with the piano.. Thus was it.. The best and the most melodious and musical part of my life... Music Always remains a long lastin passion and i always liked callin my self a lead singer in the Choir... Thanks Rosary.,....

Cheers

Long Time !! No See !!

2009-04-02T11:14:00.000+05:30

Heyi...

Its long long long time since i put down somethin.. Its just that i was too depressed to even write somethin. May be, If i had written somethin i woulda felt better and so I am now.. The major cause of this post is for my new blog template to reach out to the world. I just got this sudden craze of changing templates and downloadin from outside. Thanks to a few external influences.

Boredom.. The word i ve got used to so much now cause i am sufferring from that disease of boredom. Project. this word has started terrifying me. It seems like there is nothin to do but from time to time comes in as nightmares. 4 months with jus somethin so boring to do. it can also be said as nothin to do. Sittin at home with laptop, TV, Music and mobile. Idle, Idle, Idle... This is the first cause of my depression. Seriously nothin challenging to do. i kind off feel as though am wasting every moment of my life. I ve even started forgetting how to smile.. I feel like shouting sayin ' Gimme a break'.

Anyway, Life has ta go on... I know this post is a complete sad movie kinda stuff.. But am jus gonna post somethin bubbly in jus the next few hours... SO.. See ya after a break..

Cheers

Post Valentine' Day !!!

2009-02-15T01:11:00.000+05:30

heyi,

Back again after this gap. Though i did nothin these days other than sittin on the system all day long not knowin wat to do. I jus din feel like posting somethin. But its my friends sudden suggestion that made me write this post.

As per the above topic(am sorry bout this kind of bookish sentences, but this is wat i majorly gained from MBA, polishing and varnishing english) if u readin this post thinking its my valentine' day experience am sorry its not so spicy. i ve jus commented a bit on the duller side.

Valentine' Day and Lover' Day and Feb 14(all mean the same) creating so much hype. It came and its gone. Its gone as yet another boring day. All i did on this sweet cute saturday was to call up my friends, have a conversation and listen to their Valentine Woes.. My dearest friend had such a big row with his girl on his date ending up at office suddenly to check mails with movie tickets going waste. And yet another two closest nut case friends of mine never met their partners(so din I, thats apart). And finally one more couple(i thot they were) never wished each other even. So this was one of the coolest Valentine' Day i experienced from my 13th age.

I atleast wanted ta make up for that PINK Whatever Campaign and so i wore Clothes in Pink.I sat with my laptop breakin my head ta type my first reprt for my project. So that was my Valentine' Day special.

So comin ta this most celebrated Valentine' Day thing. What are we doin to love?? Marketing it? Restricting it to a day? Celebrating it jus for 24 hours? Then what is love for. Love is meant to be throughout the year, 24*7. Close ur eyes and he/she stands in front of you. That moment is also ur Valentine' Moment. Daily is ur Valentine' Day. Do u forget ur sweetheart all the other days and remember suddenly on Valentine' Day.

Hey people come on yaar, Marketers are tryin to make a fool of us and media is playin games. We common people don understand it and we land up giving them that profit which their looking for.

Anyway, am not against Valentine' Day, cause even I know what love is. And I know it lots. So lets celebrate our love and love each other eveyday of our life. And let everyday be our Valentine' Day....

Cheers

Enlightened !!!!

2009-01-21T16:34:00.000+05:30

Heyi...

Whats about all this enlightment ? U think i went to Bodh Gaya? Actually No. I went to my native place Kumbakonam. 4 days. what a welcome break it was. i lived in a different world a different life all together.

As all of us have this general opinion as that smaller towns are not as good as the cities. It proves wrong, cause those towns are jus awesome in their own small ways. they can provide somethin special which our cities don provide. Enlightment.. Happiness.. Clarity..

There was a time when my cousin and me used ta visit Kumbakonam every year for our vacation to our granny. Now things have changed where granny stays with us here. This leaves Kumbakonam with jus memories and the house.. But we surely make it a point to be there every year for the Radha Kalyanam festival during pongal season. Lot of bhajana. Lotsa people. they also keep sayin " Yendi, nee Lakshmi Pethi Thaane, Jayaraman Ponnu thaane'(Hey, U r lakshmi's grand daughter right, U r jayaraman's Daughter right) and such things. There is also this special treatment cause u r from Madras.

In this festival Groups comin from different parts of india to sing gods praise and bhajans. They make audience to sing the songswith them. i like this very much. And i have no inhibitions as to nicely sing along with them. Play the jalra(cymbals) and all. i was lovin my life those four days. I felt happy and proud that i had such a native place and relatives ta go back to. I was thoroughly

living each and every moment, until the festival got over with the marriage. Back home were my cousins my niece my aunt and other maamis and lotsa visitors and lot of fun. and not to forget marudhaani(mehendi).

I came back with a really light heart, lots and lots of freshness. So thats where i write this blog enlightened !!!!!

Cheers

back with a bang !!!!!!

2009-01-13T20:52:00.000+05:30

Am Back with a bang.... After 10 days of hard work, tension, fear, happiness and every other emotion. My performances went awesome. Am so happy. The response i got too was great. Todays was my best ever i would say till now. Thanks to those who made it really special. apart from all comments, compliments and criticisms i myself personally think i deserve a pat on my back. i jus loved wat i did. my mum is so happy. so satisfied. and she says she is a proud mom and she has accompolished atleast somethin. i will do more mom. and my dad is a proud dad too. and my friends came, which made me more excited. anyway. thanks ta god for givin such a talent and for my teacher who made me do it, and to everyone who ever made it possible for me ta be there. i am not able ta keep my happiness to me.. thats wat comes here in form of words.. so see ya soon

cheers

Long long ago a girl suddenly came up with a blog and updated it daily…. But suddenly went missing for days. And that’s Great ME.. u know y i went missing. Am really busy.. with? Was jus tryin ta study and took up too much of time. Jus tryin. No Offence. And I am jus tryin ta save my dads money and control my nets usage may be.. All that apart. I jus got the time today.

Like lifes kinda been good to me all these days except for a few hurdles.. That’s ok. Chalega though. Jus now jus encountered a small incident. A person was a bit rude to me over phone. I jus dunno y that did upset me so much cause as normal me, I jus don bother much bout all these things but today it kinda really upset me. I jus wanted ta call up again and say Grow and Learn Manners… Jus felt like hittin smethin on ta the wall and then struck this idea. Y not jus put it down in words and am kinda fine now. Anyways.. Thanks Mr. Blog. And thanks readers for goin thru this. Lifes this…

cheers

Relationship.... Crime....

2008-12-04T22:40:00.000+05:30

heyi.... I jus had a kinda bad day because i was studyin. U know books always annoy me. So i jus switched on the television for some entertaintment. I jus came across the unravel the mystery behind crime program in in a tamil channel. it like caught my sudden interest when i was swappin channels and i jus thought i ll see it.

The topic was on illicit relationships leadin ta crimes. They showed the incident of this one really cute tamil girl workin in a private software company in bangalore bein killed by her husband in her house at mid day. The couple had had a love cum arranged marriage jus 3 months earlier and he killed her last month. Hit her hard with iron rod. The reason behind was found after interrogations. it was that he had an affair and so killed his wife.

I don understand what makes people do all this. I felt really bad. Jus then thought about it. If u have another relationship and accordin ta u if u feel that second person is really special jus have them in ur heart. Nothin wrong. After all we are humans. And there might be a need of variety but what makes that go to the extent of murder. It kinda pains ta se the word Love bein misused. Its all lust.

Relationship is somethin that will help a person ta develop psychologically stronger and motivate him.Any relationship for that matter. Where do u get these negative ideas from. Does ur heart dissapear when u do these actions. Am jus leavin this with these thoughts.. See ya...

cheers

Random... Really Random...

2008-12-03T23:16:00.000+05:30

Heyi... Think All had a really good day. i had a good day too. jus thinkin of wat ta type down here. and eureka. got the idea.

Saturday is my next exam. After the series of postponements and stuff. 10 days after the last exam was over. And i ve gotta feel that my MBA is over. But cha. u have ta write the exam and to write the exam u have ta study. this though was the idea for todays blog.

Last Minute preparations or throughout the year preparations.....

I would obviously go for the last minute one. Am not a topper u see. But i jus wanna know which works out the best. Its been ponderin in my mind. So there was once in life durin in 11 th grade i decided ta muster the courage try out this formula of studyin from the beggining. But god damn i felt as though i was hittin my brain hard. and makin it bleed. Seriously....

That was the first and last attempt.. OOOfff.. Hats off to those guys who study daily lessons. Anyways. I have ta actually support my arguement na.. Am sure others will agree with me too. Sure atleast my circle of friends do. I make sure i maintain friendship with only those kinda people.(jus Kiddin.. no offence)

Firstly, y to spoil in the enjoyment of the normal days by thinkin too much about the exam days. Exam days are meant ta be for studyin. They are separate. those are days when we are abnormal eh!! atleast we act abnormal in front of our parents...

Secondly, I don think we are computers or mobile phones ta remember watever data is stored in memory long long ago according to the date. Its jus wat we vaguely remember.

Lastly, when u wanna get away with the subject or the exam. the best advice is ta study in the previous night, jus go pour it on paper and come out burden free. Forget all the sorrows which came upon u the previous night. Wat da u say!!!

So anyway.. I don wanna spoil the people who are unlike me studyin. Anyway i was jus havin little fun. So all the best for the exams!!!

Cheers

LOVE !! and Ditch?? Y !!

2008-12-02T21:46:00.000+05:30

heyi... Thanks ta my friend. Told me ta reduce too much of my puntuations. I ll try Max Buddy..

Comin ta the topic of my blog. Y such a Love and ditch issue on a blog.. I dunno. But i felt like surely writin this. My friend has jus gone thru a heart break and it pains ta see him that way cause the reason in the other side was downright STUPID..

Y Do we ever love and wats the concept behind love. This requires another post though. My problem now on earth is the bloody reasons they give for ditchin each other..

Its Not Workin Out anymore ! ( I jus wanna know. Is it Maths ta work out. Bloody when u ever started lovin and when u said O!Honey I Love U!! , u shoulda made sure it works out. Suddenly in a middle u feel its not workin?)
O! My family is really important for me. And I d do as my parents said (OMG wat an excuse ! Din u ever have a family before fallin in love or a family jus jumped up suddenly when u felt bored with ur relationship. Nonsense ! )
I jus found my true love in him/her (Whoa ! what did u ever do for so long. went around huntin for ur true love to places with ur fake love. Trail version eh??)
I ve jus lost interest in these things (I thought love wasn a thing, its a feel. u lose interest in things not in emotions).

Finally, the most Famous.

Can we jus be friends (how can lovers be friends . Come on, u ve never loved that person or u still lovin that person. u can never part as friends)

So, like these things jus keep goin on in my mind. Cause i feel love is somethin above every other emotion. misusing is like tamperin with ur own heart. so Take care

Cheers

Talk Relevant Stuff, In the Relevant Place

2008-12-01T21:16:00.000+05:30

hey hi.... i know my last post kinda dragged... i know.... cause come on ya... sad of me... that was my first blog.... and i din know much bout the blog ethics and other bla bla bla...... anyways.... i am back here with this one experience i had today.... From mornin i was jus wastin time royally thinkin of wat ta do... and infact heights of addiction to this bloggin.... that i thought as ta wat ta update in my blog today.... and suddenly Damaaal and came the evenin...

Music season is approachin.... Classical Music awards.... the very close frienda mine... an awesome singer.... was recievin an award from one of the big sabhaa(music circle) today...

A lot of Big People from various fields and those who play a major role in promotin art(thats wat they say) were there... the award giving was jus 2 to 3 mins.... but dragged onto more than an hour.... wanna know y???? Obvious... too much Mokkai...

Wat did their speech contain... Music??? Dance??? Fine Arts??? NAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It was an MBA class which went on there.... the first person who spoke a very eminent personality... spoke bout Terrorism(Wats the relevance!!!) , the Bombay Issue!!!!(Shit!!!)... all this spoken in a place where somethin nice like givin an award... and u shd see the relation he gave... Music is soothin for the Victims' Realtives and to people who are harmed... (might be he expected people ta come and sit to hear music when they were mournin).... Y Bombay Here!!!!

Next came a Super duper Finance class.. another big guy.. he talks bout the Sub Prime Crisis !!! Whoa !!! Great Job... I guess he was with the SEBI.. But did that give him a qualification to jus speak bout any some financial crisis on the stage of music.... i jus don understand.... and Half an hour he explained on how Hundi Policies were related ta Sub Prime( JUNK !!!!!!)

So... I jus learnt how much u can jus talk with irrelevant stuff... in an irrelevant place... And Vowed that i would never do it ta anyone... uurrghhhhhh !!!!!! But still... Its Congratz to my friend.. Who is very soon gonna make it really big in the field.... he was so happy for the award as well as my presence.... So all went well.... and if u r readin this!!! All the best Sir !!!!!

My passion... My Dance.....

2008-11-30T23:41:00.000+05:30

O My God.... wat the hell am i upto...... second post in jus few minutes..... blogs have interested me too much may be.... but i jus feel like postin one as i don feel sleepy.... i jus cant think of wat interests my readers... but this is somethin that interests me....

My dance..... though its not jus a single post bloggin experience... U d surely see me off and on with this Dance thing.... am a Bharatnatyam dancer.... where it all began....heres the fun...

My Mum and aunt would have a better answer,.... But the whole fun of where it started is at my age of 7.... born in a cultured hindu family wat else would u expect...."Ponnuku paada theriyanam, Aada theriyunum, kalai ellam therinjukanam"(for the benefit of who din understand..."a girl in our families should know how ta sing, ta dance and should have knowledge of art forms")

O My Gosh... U should see the amount of preparation behind it... Vijayadasami, Vethala paaku, Guru dakshanai and wat not... its all one super cool experience at that small age when there is hell lotta activity happenin around u and for u... U r the Heroine.... So cute.... Anyway all fun apart... it jus started there.... and i was put in a dance school....

it jus started like one regular routine... did it interest me or not... i have no no clue ever.... i jus used ta go and come... and my dad, the best dad the world can see.... i dunno if i had the sincerity... he surely had it... would drop me pick me up on time...not only classes anywhre for that matter... it continues even now.... jus love my dad for that....

Time for Arangetram, as they call it... its the first stage experience for a dancer.... when i was in my 9 th grade.... but sadly i couldn make it up... cause i was wearin stupid braces.... hate them.... it delayed my life by 4 yrs....

11 th and 12 th grade i started sayin i gotta study, dance class venaaa and all that crap... the usual shit from people of my age.... and i left dance even after all the cries of mum dad paati aunty everyone.... such a crap i was.....

And again my dad and mum come in to the picture.... where when i joint college he persuaded me i continue.... and i started off... a new life and a new experience... i started lovin dance more than anythin in this world... my arangetram happened.... its yet another story which needs a separate post.... will surely tell ya guys.... my mum and paatis prayers paid.....

Dance has become my kinda way of life... it was not jus that i wanted ta dance... the emotions... the clarity in mind all this comes with dance... its like i vent everythin out.... the saddest moods i go ta dance class i come out cheerful.... it made me learn how ta control emotions love, happiness, sadness, anger, anxiety............................. list jus goes on....

and now here i stand as a performer, a dancer.... and i feel dance has done more to my life than all my education and other junk did....

Thanks Dad, Thanks Mum and all my motivation factors around me.... they still cheer me in each and every program of mine... criticise me.... everythin..."i still transform mum and i am still improvin... will make ur wish" is wat i say ta myself before every rehersal......

cheers
