Imagine making a whole lot of silly mistakes all through the day in every single thing you do! While it’s easy to try to take it lightly and laugh and forget it all, when the same thing happens the next day too, you end up feeling as though you’re the stupidest person you know! Two days in a row is too much to take. Hope this doesn’t continue tomorrow as well! I have had enough bulbing moments!
This line in the very-frequently-aired advertisement of ‘Alive’ coffee seems to be the most-heard line on every other channel! Couldn’t help remembering it as I drank a cup of piping-hot water which felt heavenly for my throat, which is on the verge of being struck by cold. Inhaling the steam and later drinking the hot water is one of those unsuccessful attempts at trying to ward-off the cold & fever. But nothing works like Vicks and a good night’s sleep. Falling asleep with the aroma of Vicks engulfing you is pure bliss! Good Night, folks!
P.S.: The last few weeks have been a mix of hectic, fun-filled, memorable & great days. I am really trying hard to get back to regular blogging. Let’s see if it happens at least this month.
Wishing you all a very happy new year!
You are most welcome to skip reading this post!
You are in your 20s, you have at least one thing in your life about which you complain and grumble about often, you are kind of stuck in a comfort zone from which you are not sure if you want to come out or not and you have many friends who are also sailing on the same boat. Now what happens when you get together with any of the friends? Or what happens when any of the friends gets some forward mail which gives all the gyaan about how you should be living your life being contented with what you have or about how you should be enjoying all those small happy moments/things in life?

2006 was a year that was filled with loads of happy, unforgettable memories and happenings. Among the numerous good things that happened to me in that year, my blog is also one. 3 years it has been since I finally decided to give blogging a try after putting an end to thoughts of what I will have to write/blog about. And today I owe each one of you a very big thank you for making my blog one of the things I feel good about at the end of the day. And a big thanks to my blog too for giving me some wonderful friends and acquaintances. Here’s to more ARR’s music, Mani Ratnam’s movies, Sanjay’s & TMK’s singing, sunrise/sunsets 😛 ! 🙂 Happy Birthday, my blog! 🙂
Watching one of my favourite old movies, Parichay on Filmy channel, guitar practice after a long time and watching the one-hour programme on Orissa on Discovery Channel which has now made me add to Orissa to the looong list of places I want to visit someday – these are the only things worth mentioning about the typical lazy Saturday that today was, when I wasn’t in the mood to even step out of home.
It looks like tomorrow might be a day in complete contrast to today, thanks to
Let’s see if things go as per plans.. Happy Sunday to you all! 🙂
Postponing writing post after post will result in the blog becoming like how mine has – a blog getting updated once in a blue moon. But more than that, something you very badly wanted to write about once might become insignificant/out-dated at the present moment when you finally find the time or get the urge to write. I have a looot of unfinished posts in my drafts! Besides there is a chance that you might now not be able to write something the way you initially wanted to. I hate seeing my blog in this state. So, starting from today, I am going to seriously try to restore this blog to how it was quite a few months earlier. Let’s see how it goes…
P.S.: I was thinking whether to post this or not. But I wasn’t interested in postponing posting it either 😉
Life is so very unpredictable and filled with shocking happenings causing harsh realities which you never bring yourself to accept. And yet it goes on as usual, as though nothing at all happened! All those wonderful, happy, fun-filled memories which you always knew you would have cherished for a lifetime suddenly become just that – just memories to cherish -, when you least expected it to happen. You know you will never get those good old days back ever again and that’s what is constantly there on your mind. Yet there are moments when that realization strikes you in full blow and that’s when it upsets you all the more and the pain and sorrow is back in full form. Life is good only when there is a balance between the amount of happiness and sorrow it gives. It isn’t easy to move on with life when it keeps showing its cruel side often and continues to give shock after shock.
It isn’t often that I keep PDND as my status message on GTalk. But every time I change my status to ‘PDND’, at least one person pings me & asks, ‘What’s PDND?’! Once, a Carnatic-music-crazy friend asked me, ‘Which raagam’s PDND (swarams) I am talking about’!! LOL! I think I should stop putting it as my status message.
P.S.: In case someone who doesn’t know what ‘PDND’ is, is reading this, it’s ‘Please Do Not Disturb’.
This is what has been keeping me busy for the past one week and this is what will keep me busy for the next few days. Happy Navaratri, everybody! Enjoy the festival season & the holidays that come along with too:)
