On the 16th May this blog turned 4 years. This is my ‘place’ and it’s been good so far – hopefully it will continue to be so for the foreseeable future. Thank You for reading  

When I was younger – in school, after school and living with parents, I always wanted to participate in plays and do a bit of drama. I was super active in school – writing, directing (and winning!) plays, holding office in the School’s English Union, planning days etc etc. Shakespeare was one of the most […]

I told myself I’d get here in 5 years. It took me 1 month longer but I’m here now, and there’s no turning back. This was a half decade of being thrown to the lions, of having my self-confidence crushed and of doing something that certain people thought I couldn’t do. Today, that person shook [...]

Nothing screams love like the sleepy hand that finds yours in the dead of night. Makes my heart skip a beat. Everytime.

Christmas has come along quietly this year and 2012 has near ended on us stealthily. Reminiscing, my 2012 was a mixed year. It was a brand new year for C and me as newlyweds, so many plans and things we wanted to do and do we did to a great extent. It was also a [...]

I have devised the minutest of plans to give great great joy. A make shift coffee station in my bedside cupboard. A jug kettle, a ziplock bag filled with 3-1 coffee sachets & our usual stash of green tea, some ginger tea bags, sugar and 2 spare mugs and there is heaven in my bedroom! [...]

C’s work has since of late been making him travel alot. Most often for weeks at a time. Getting used to it has been tough and at times down right miserable. His nasty streak rears its head when he bugs me incessantly about the things I do to wile away the time (most of it [...]

By the Christmas bug that is! Maybe it’s because that’s all we talk about in office coupled with the forecasting for next year in full swing. I’ve got the plans for e season slowly forming in my head starting with the lengthy prep work for the christmas cake right upto when the tree goes up [...]

Some people need to keep theirs to themselves and maybe learn a bit of discretion coupled with a dose of sensitivity. That is all.

Ten million miles I’d fly, to hold your hand, be your friend – and more, just to make you smile, just to know you’re ok, coz baby, I’ve got you.

The last 2 weeks have been literally the 2 most bizarre weeks of my life. Emotions have ranged from disbelief,denial,blinding rage,acceptance,love and disappointment. Through it all, C has stood by me, silent,supportive,patient and full of love. I’ve come to realise that this man is now my rock and without him I’d be incomplete. I couldn’t [...]

The last couple of days have been eventful. Starting with turning 27 last week, which was awesome coz C had done up a canopy of fairy lights in our back lawn with chairs and a table placed underneath for dinner We stayed in, had takeout from China Doll, popped a bottle of bubbly stuff and [...]

The April holidays were excellent but it was so jam packed with stuff to do that just after the 2 day Nuwaraeliya break, we’ve had something to do or somewhere to go to every single day. Including a sudden funeral in Kandy where C and I left home at 7.30pm and got back home at [...]

A 10 day holiday for the New Year Starting tomorrow 8th Apr – Easter dinner with the extended family. C has promised me an easter egg! 9th/10th Apr – Hub and I head to Nuwaraeliya. The last time we went was on honeymoon, so way overdue visit. Kinda last minute, but those are the ones [...]

My motivation levels are at an all time low. The workout and diet regimen has been on track the last 3 weeks but the scale has not budged. At all. The same hour long workouts, the same low cal diet for 5 days of the week. The only thing that I haven’t been able to [...]

We finally headed down the highway this past weekend and I don’t know about the haters but kudos to the man himself for believing that Sri Lanka needs an infrastructure to aid development. I travel relatively frequently to Galle on work and to get there in under an hour compared to the 3 – 3.5hrs [...]

Started off the diet/ workout routine this week and it’s on track. Got 3 consecutive days of workouts in and I’ve progressed from dreading the post-office late evening workout to being determined not to give into laziness and defeat. I wouldn’t say I look forward to it, but atleast it’s a start! The worst part [...]

3 people this morning in office told me I’ve put on. Ugh. Time to kick myself in the rear and get back firmly (and that means no slacking) on my pre-wedding routine. I need to find that will power made of steel again. I’ve got no one else to blame but myself. I’ve been lazy [...]
