I'm baaaaaaaaaaaaack! With far too many pictures and a few blog posts to write. Today was supposed to be my first day back at work. But I went to see B yesterday and stayed the night and this morning she convinced me to call in sick. Which I did. I've never done that! I feel so guilty. The worse part ...
I am saddened by the death of Steve Jobs.I remember my first brush with Apple. 11 years old and my school library’s computer was a mac. I was soooo confused by this technology. It wasn’t anything I was used to. And I remember not using the computer again.As I got older, I didn’t hear much about macs and Apple and ...
How life has a way of reminding you of things you want to forget?Facebook news feeds. With the profile of your wife.I must have really pissed off Karma.
My dad is slightly sick. He’s been given a cold and he’s also developed some kind of pain in his upper arm.Last night he was talking to my mum and I heard her start laughing.“Why didn’t you say Andy Murray then?!”Apparently my dad was saying “Anty Mortay” which my mum interpreted as “antibiotics” and she only cottoned on that he ...
I am old. Not just chronologically but mentally too.My train just pulled into a station and there were what seemed like a thousand school kids on the platform. My reaction? "Oh shit!". And then I thought to myself that that's what adults probably said about me and my friends when we were that age!Crap. ...
The above video came on the TV the other day as my siblings and I were watching one of those famous music channels. We do like The Wanted - especially since there is one guy who's half Tamil (helps that he's easy on the eye as well!). Brother: "Best thing to come out of Ireland since Westlife". Me: "Are ...
SARAH!!!!!Can I have permission to read your blog please?!Sorry for the overdramatics (is that even a word?!) but I had no other way to contact you! :)*blush*
Dukan!!!Yes - that was a really poor pun. What to do?I am going to do the Dukan Diet I think. I'm still contemplating it. I've read lots but I'm going to have to plan what I can and can't eat.Will let you know when I've started! :
From here.So coffee. I was waiting patiently – AJ was running late. As a Tamil, we are renowned for our tardiness and I refuse to fall into this category which means I get to places ridiculously early. About 15 minutes go by when I feel someone hovering over my shoulder – AJ! He kind of just nods his head at ...
Being of South Asian origin can be hard. Despite growing up in a western country and being influenced by western cultures, there’s still a lot that doesn’t transfer across to South Asian culture.When you asked people of my generation when we were kids what we wanted to be when we grew up, it was always the typical response; “doctor”, “engineer”, ...
It has been 9 months since you told me. And about 7 since I last spoke to you. Things are supposed to get easier with time they say and they have - definitely. But lately I've been missing you. Not in a "love of my life kind of way". But in a "you were my best friend" kind of way. ...
No not a new film.#25 days annual leave a year is just not enough. :(14 - 18 July: Amsterdam to see Take That perform!02 - 24 September: Sydney, Australia via Kuala Lumpar, Malaysia (4 nights).Total number of days taken: 20. :( And that's not even thinking about all the ad hoc holidays I'll need!(I've already started scoping out where the ...
I love my friends – B, A, R, RL, SS and all the other random initials you might have seen on here.I went out on Friday night without them though. Because I know that when we are out, we stick together. We have our own jokes, our own terminology for things, our own little quirks and I am comfortable around ...
