Will not say that the past 1 year was an absolute waste....It was self realization at its best.
I hope to be a new and improved person.

Some people surprise me....for not changing at all, by becoming better....and some for going from bad to worse....over the years.


January 18, 2011
It has been an eventful start with Ice skating, skiing, bowling.....

Thank you Sandy for introducing me to ARR and Ilayaraja.

Oh my! The post "A Silent world..." is still empty.

Requires some practice to get it right!
Its 2011 finally. It's not like I was waiting eagerly for 2011. On second thoughts, may be I was.
Apart from moving to US and Anshu coming into our lives, 2010 was the most uneventful year. At least professionally. So, the first resolution for this year is to get a job....real fast.

I want to make the chicken furry...

Just read Sandy's first blog post (http://santhosh-myfirstblog.blogspot.com/)....the only post...I wish he wrote often.


December 31, 2010
Baked the first set of cookies. Made the perfect jelly for Christmas.
Getting things done and right finally. Gaining confidence. Hope that it boosts up my morale.

Working from home sure has its benefits. One such day of anologies.
"We are like cows...Get beaten up till we die and even after... wow."

My mind is blank. Just like the weather outside. Full of dark clouds. Can't see the clear sky.


August 24, 2010
Having butterflies in my stomach. I donno why. What am I forgetting????
I better concentrate on preparing myself for tomorrow.


August 23, 2010
Onam away from home...Posted the onam design on fb. I wish adobe was affordable...Am fighting with Gimp. So many events on one day.... The major one...payasam making.....I wonder what will I do without Sandy. Want to grow up. Still feel like a child at heart. Why....our home is where 2 kind live...Sandy and I. Its so much fun.
Got a chance to dig my teeth into pizza at Radhika's b'day today.

Felt a sense of satisfaction after tying a rakhi to Navnee. I am glad Sandy always got a sister in Uma. I know she has always been one. Anyways, Its official now.


August 22, 2010
The Onam sadya at Deepu's house was fun. I am proud of my self for being able to make some good sambhar for 25 people and get home the utensil empty. Am eagerly waiting for the pics from the party. I am so happy to have had Sandy help me through the preparations. Such a great help. A pat on his back too.

Played in-house badminton today......felt so good. I am sure i might have shed few kilos....
Am so lucky....that I can still be a child with Sandy......jumping, playing, wrestling,....
Touch Wood!!!

Finiding it difficult to get a job. When will my patience pay off???
People can be so rude at times....What a wonderful discouraging chat I had with Gary......
He said he's an Indian. By birth may be. But, I doubt if he really is an Indian at heart......


July 27, 2010
Surya has got lil Anshuman to play with now.


July 20, 2010
Spoke to an old friend today. Felt good to find out that he was sorting things out in his life and determined to be happy.


July 9, 2010
Looking at the post archives...I found 1 year of my life missing.
Is this a taste of what is living life virtually????
I am sure there are numerous people out there...who are literally living their life virtually.
Communities like facebook are helping them "LIVE" ./? Is it a question or a statement?


July 8, 2010
My laugh of the day is annoying someone. oops......


July 3, 2010

Till then I am going to settle for this template. Life is so boring without art.
I love you YANNI!

A friend has decided to get married.

April 22, 2010

Its a surprise. I did not remember that I had scribbled something after marriage. Feels like blogging for the first time.

Where are the crows??? Guess should write about this....m off to it.

It feels great to be back after a sebbatical. Chennai is good. He surprised me yesterday by coming home early from office. But, there is a pleasure too in waiting for his return.

You say it best when you say nothing at all.

Its heart over head again. I have been trying to change it. Felt an urge to write. I wish I had used "the" language often. But the urge was so much that I quit trying out the cryptographic means and took to english. Now my ofc book is lookin more of a personal diary with more of heart than head.


February 13, 2009
I am begining to feel it. Things are falling in place.


February 11, 2009
Life's moving fast. I feel like standing on a platform and people just moving by. I am already engaged. Will be married soon. It just seemed like yesterday when I was in school. Time is flying. I just dont want to stand there. I want to move forward.


February 8, 2009
Engagement day! I don't know what to expect. But the day went by smoothly, full of joy. But, dad was sad. I am his pet, afterall. But for mom, he would have cried. I saw him choking up. That moment I was sad too. But thats life! Now looking foreward for the happiness that is in store for me.


December 20, 2008
Way back into Love....Its stuck in my mind like anything. Really good music and lyrics. Love to keep listening to it.

December 14, 2008
Some bonds have become stronger.


November 14, 2008
Watched the "Children of heaven". Its come several times on TV but got to watch only yesterday. Just loved it....got choked up. If I were alone, I would have cried.

A Bug of self-realization just stung me...

You get nothing without asking. Some fools have still not learned this. I feel so helpless.

It feels so good to be back....at a new place.....

Having a recurrent dream. Its not just a dream. Its a thought...a meaningful one. Its about the get together.
Me and my friends from school meet up often. It used to be quite often (once a month) now it has reduced (may be once in 3-4 months). But anyway thats not the thought. The thought is.... we all meet up...chat a lot...laugh a lot....eat a lot...and finally go home...but we are doing nothing constructive. To whom....the SOCIETY? I don't know...but its a dream thats has now come twice in the past two weeks.

Saw the Eclipse with the creative group. Why did'nt I do this in school???

I just love this day. Wish this day would never end. I don't remember the last time I had a stress free day. It was a good day at office. I loved my time at singing class. Cant stop singing sindhu bhairavi. Missing little surya. Its not only me but all at home. I cant stop myself from laughing when I think mummy looking at Jerry and calling him "Kunjappa". We miss you surya- the cute little mischievous kunjappa.

Skipped office today. Thought of working from home. Am happy for bunking. Had a heart to heart chat with dad. Its been really long since we had a father-daughter time. We were discussing my future. Studies, job, marriage and all. He didn't need to say it as i knew that what ever i do my dad will support me in every way.

We were discussing how many people are lucky to know,study and work in a field that they want. My dad said I am lucky too. Indeed I am. For having such a wonderful loving father and friend.

Thank you daddy!

Watched "Horton hears a Who" yesterday. A wonderful movie about an elephant with a belief "a person's a person, no matter how small". An elephant who is determined to save a community of creatures living on a speck on a clover. And we being humans, can definitely do a lot for the creatures in the nature. Our mind is so powerful. It can think so deep about other's situation and pain. I had learn it the sad way. It took one cuckoo in pain for me to realize this. Unaware that cuckoos coo generally seeking mates, I used to enjoy whistling back at its cooing. And it would do the same. It was when I stopped that its gentle coos changed to high frequency shriek. The shrieking continued several days before it finally stopped. I wonder what had happened to it. I might sound stupid but I feel sad when I think about the mental agony I had put it through. I made a promise to myself to never have fun at other's cost. May be somebody is in pain while I am enjoying.

All that I want to say to you o dear friend is:

Heaven knows we need never be ashamed of our tears, for they are rain upon the blinding dust of earth, overlying our hard hearts.
~Charles Dickens

We had a small treat from Satish. I enjoyed it. Had dinner, made plans of next get together, which of course is not decided yet, had a healthy discussion on several topics. The one topic which went on for some time was reservation for women in several areas. We have decided to prepare well on our view and get back at each other prepared. Guess this topic is bothering the opposite community. Dad just called in from the railway station. He's been waiting there for past half an hour. But only ladies local were running on tracks for some time(what a luck and a sign for relief for the ladies!). And now, dad discussing the women reservation with me. Guess its going to be long before there's an end to this discussion. I better start gathering my points.

I have been warned from riding cycle. was given so many explanations by my uncle.
the most irritating one was......u live in a posh locality...why don't u buy a car.
others were.....u are not a child any more......u are highly educated....should maintain the standard...
I miss the feeling of joy and success when i used to ride it through the middle of the busy road. The happiness of moving past the motor vehicles that are stuck in traffic....
And now, there goes my lone source of exercise.

Was cleaning my desktop today. There was a file on one corner. I had totally forgotten about it. It had a shayari that i had heard on TV. Here it goes...

"Hamein apnon ne loota,
gairon mein kahaan dum tha.
Meri kashti doobi wahaan,
jahaan pani kam tha."

This reminded me of King Kong. A wonderful movie. The most touching part was the end. There's a line in the movie. I am not able to recollect the exact wording but, this is what was said when King Kong was shot down....

"It's not the bullets that killed it. But, it's the Beauty that killed the Beast."

Such a deep thought......

Listened to Aniruddha's poems today. They were really full of emotions. Its really amazing what love does to a life. I thought it was a myth that a person meets his poetic side when in love but have lately come across quite a number of people who have discovered the poets in them during the best time of their life. So then its true when they say that great discoveries happen by accident.
