As I stare out of the window, listening to the rustle of the leaves, the nearby chirping of the queer looking bird, velocity of the first rain drops hitting the ground, I wonder..

I finished my first Haruki Murakami!!! The wind up bird chronicle! And what fun it was. Not in a literal sense. But in a quirky way! Anywho without further ado, I will jot down my musings during this phase. * It truly felt like a diary. Of Mr. Wind up Bird. * Parts of it…

But Bamboo was a little mad you see. Tired of seeking the sun, one day bamboo suddenly decided it wanted to grow deep. Mango in its…

Owing to a lot of reasons I have not found time to do laundry of office wear, outside wear. Plus I have an anyone-else-washing-my-clothes-will-ruin-them phobia. Except for aai. She is like the best clothes-carer in the world. (I am making up words, did you notice? Yay!). Anywho no digression.So I was (am still) astonished to…

# The other day a friend who visited school recently, told me that some of the teachers were asking about me. I was so elated that day! It made me think about random school stuff which I still follow, like sitting straight i.e. not slouching, no matter what, maintaining a flexible body (our phys ed…

After a long time, watched a movie which took its time, enjoyed the moments and lingered on. Explored the people in it at its own pace, revealing little at a time even though sometimes throwing the obvious across. It felt romantic. Not in the literal meaning of the word, but in a poetic way. Plus…
