Chennai Aha...!

Ther's no place like home and Chennai is and will always be home! Man do I lurve the city... The smell of the wet earth ('coz it's raining or shud I say pouring), the socialising that happens over morning walks, or simply the family catching up over freshly brewed filter coffee and Newspaper- these are things that a Chennaite swears by everyday. I love the simple living that is so much a character of the city! You donno what you're missing if you haven't gone simple! Ther's simply no complications in bein simple.

Oh and I found the conservatism of the city endearing this time (though I swear while I lived ther I hated it!) People turn to look at you just because you wear leggings with a sleeveless 'T'. Any woman who's short of attention shud just manage to bare a little in Chennai and man-oh-man will all your attention-needs just flyby!

So what did I do in Chennai huh? Went for my final year exams in Mass Communication. Had four papers that I had not done an iota of studyin for... So will I pass these tests? The last one didn't go well, walked out half way and all! But as for the other three I sure hope so.

I caught up with my near and dear ones and loved every moment of it! Like I said b4 ther really is no place I lurve more... Chennai Aha!!!

Kasuali- Diwali Vacation... :)

Ok! Ok!! I know it's been like forever since my last post... Am not goin 2 give any xcuses! :) Lots of thing happened since then but if anyone asks me "What's up?"my standard anyswer is "nothing much!" lol...
So what are these thing that have been happening huh? For starters I went to Kasauli for my diwali holidays with my hubby (ofcourse!) and some of our cousins... It was gr8 fun! Some lovely photographs and lovelier memories prove it... For those of u who are wondering wer exactly this is... it's a hill station very near Shimla. A completely beautiful place quite untouched by tourism. We stayed in a beautiful guest house that belongs to American Express. (No i haven't changed my job...my cuz works ther) It was freakin cold and this was even b4 the dilli ki sardi, meaning winters was here, so u could just imagine! But we had loads of fun neverthless.

Apart from that I have been part of opening of two other stores... Shoppers Stop @ Saket and Homestop. I am becomin quite a pro at it (though i say it moiself).

I have watched zillions of movies... well not that many actually... but the ones that stand out are Jab we Met and Aaja Nachle... For those who haven't seen either yet, "What are you doin reading this, It's gud... Go watch it!"

More recently i have been busy with Xmas setup in the store and I want to scream and tell "Ahoy everybody... it's is fabulous! go see it!" (Gawd aint i becoming dictorial?) But seriously, a lot of us have done a lot of work and it's time u guys out ther appreciate the work that's been put into it! Any appreciation whatsoever... can i start hearing some? :P

So what next u might ask? Going to chennai next week for my exams... It's goin 2 be a two week holiday. Will be ther for new years... lookin forward to another break (aint I always?)... Nothing much more...:) Will update next wen more things happen... Until then have fun! :)

Numbness...!

I have been having this urge to write forever... write what you might ask? honestly i donno yet... ther are many topics that come to mind! my feelings about my Oh-so-awesome job!(yea i am being sarcy); the 20-20 match that we won(i decided against that one when i saw every1 had an opinion abt it!); the really nice Reliance ad(i'll write another blog about it, it's really cute); my VLCC regime(my new health mantra) or my never ending issues in life(no point even goin ther!)! but today i am in mood for something more general... I want to write about what keeps me ticking'! Ahaaa! that's a new one...!
At first ther was this urge to grow... the ambition to be someone important! this unspoken need to make a mark and have people look up to you...! then came the feeling of dissatisfaction... wer am i going? is this what i set up to do? is this all i'll ever do! why is life becomin more and more complicated wen all i want is some clear thinkin...! I am in the third stage now... have all the above feelings but ther's this numbness...I am completely numb or passionless, it's like sum1's squeezed it all out of me! the passion for my job, the feeling of excitement, the crave for doin sumthing new! man at 24 that's scary!!! But if i am honest i dont wanna take the trouble to do anything! i want gud things to happen 2 me (pssst! doesn't every1)... get a promotion; get all the health complications out; have a clear way to move ahead but without movin my oh-so-huge- butt(Hence the VLCC)..! without doing anything myself! Ahh this is wer god comes in, isn't it?Or are all the motivational quotes we hear not true? 'coz haven't we heard "n" number of motivating quotes whose sole intention is to make you feel better wen u r low? Who writes these motivating quotes i wonder... someone equally pissed with life(one has to feel it herself to get the feeling right nah!) but then aren't they being hypocrites..? i mean "i can feel this way but now i think u shudn't... and i am writing a quote so you dont feel it!" bahhhhhhhhh so hypocritical!
life is a bitch guys! and who ever says it isn't is either on a really high dope or hasn't yet opened her eyes to the real thing!
Now wasn't I goin 2 write about "What keeps me tickin...!" Topic for another day I guess...!
