Birthdays excite me! Yes crossing the silver line has got nothing to do with the fact that I should grow up and act all mature about birthdays. It will take time.But this birthday was slightly different with the energy levels. With the numerous shopping trips for the best friend’s wedding I was super duper tired…

Since childhood we have had this tradition of meeting both sides of the family at least once an year. With baba’s side all being pretty elderly and now family sizes growing with cousins getting married, and everyone dispersing and settling down, the meets are now normally confined to big family functions like weddings.

Life is often funny. For most of my 2 years in the US, I craved to be surrounded by friends (more) and family (occasionally). Everyone amongst them being supportive of me and my decisions, really stood by me. But you know how it is. Things do fade out as time goes on. Specially once the…

So after much prodding from aai-baba I finally indulged in some retail therapy. I am not a ‘crowd’ person. I mean I like the fact that India has so many people, but its more like a distant love. So when with a grumbling stomach, tired feet, sore back, drowsy eyes I approached my last target…

* I realized the post has nothing much about the book. hence reposting with an adage. Pre script : The post is about the book by David Kirkpatrick.I am a skeptic. It helps me getting my views/opinions about stuff straight. And I have always been a skeptic of social networking. It comes from personal experience. I…

1. Aai is finally bugged of the whole daughter-staying-away-from-home-for-past-eight-years-finally-back-home pampering. OK. More than pampering she gets annoyed if I present the same line in a dramatic tone when asked to do anything mundane. Its superrr fun 😀But I commend her spirits when everyday without fail she asks me so what subji (vegetable) would you like…

Guess we all need an outlet for the pent up bad stuff inside us. Thats why we do so. We is out of mere convenience here as it suits me. I fight, hurt, say stupid dramatic stuff as after the situation has subsided it makes me value the good stuff even more. I know life…
