So, as the myth unfolds, it is told that Aphrodite had a girdle that contained her enchantments that helped her get what or rather who she wanted… How I wish I had it! But…. would I have misused it unnecessarily? Hmm.. Something to think about.
I sat down to work on my thesis…. And didn’t do anything! My mind just went blank. Sigh. But my mind did suddenly drift off to a grade 6 history/geography lesson which is one that I loved and kept reading the chapters over and over again at that time.. it was about Babylonia and how it was a part of ...
A 16 hrs power cut is not how I saw myself spending Saturday. All because a stupid container had crashed into a high tension power line. Thank heavens I had my tab. I played word games and read ebooks while melting away in the heat. Even my dog was dehydrated and constantly drinking water. And finally when I was about ...
During a random conversation in office I told a bunch of colleagues that I have never been to TGI Fridays. They were determined to take me there the same day. While the work was going on in the evening, they managed to find time to go with me. I felt happy and sad at the same time. I love the ...
Felt so much love for someone before…. Cared about someone so much before…. Wanted to be with someone so much before…. So many firsts….. so much hope…..so much love….
Today I was dragged to a family friend’s son’s homecoming. It was a little overwhelming coz I met many of my father’s friends who claim to know me and have taken care of me but I seem to have no memory of. It led to dad’s friends talking about him, the last thing they did with him, the last time ...
Daddy was the best person this world ever gave us. We were easy children to have. we never demanded for things, never asked actually. We were obedient and fun. The only thing the parental unit always asked us to do was to study hard and live a good life. They never had the burden of classes outside school and they ...
That moment when my brother’s girlfriend has told my brother that his sister is smart, posh and has a vibrant personality! Oh joy! I have done my part.
I finally go that email, the one I really dreaded….. the MBA thesis is about to start and my first class is on Monday. I simply don’t want to do it! I have never felt like this with studies. I was always so organised and enthusiastic. I was never the best for a very long time, but this time around, ...
That awkward moment when I walked into my department and heard the boys talking about my butt! There was admiration, description and most of all, the fact that they can never miss it!!!! And I spoke about it to someone just this morning! Weird!!
In life, we often come across things that we want. But never get. Then we settle for something less or something else. I’ve had to do this for education. This has completely changed my life and my outlook on life. I adjusted. I’ve changed jobs in search of what fits me best. I adjusted. I’ve had to live without the ...
I have some pretty interesting friends who are great to chat to. This guy and I got to know each other as friends and I have known quite a lot about his life. He trusted me and I trusted him. We had a long chat after a long time and he said he finally has a plan to make his ...
- When the completely autistic kid kept holding my hand and laughed and smiled repeatedly for a while. – When another child with selective mutism started talk to me and smiling a lot and told me a lot of things about school and her sister. – When a another child tells me about the news that he’s updated with and ...
Express yourself, you cannot Be free, you cannot Be at peace, you cannot Be wanted, you cannot Be loved, you cannot Be what you are, you cannot Be, just be, you cannot You just cannot…
We are always waiting for something or someone… Every Friday evening, I pass long queues of people waiting to get into a bus to go down south to where their families are. They wait, tired, sometimes drenched in the rain or sweating on a warm night. They don’t look happy. They’re hassled. Constantly looking at their watches, watching other vehicles ...
Yesterday while I was talking about myself, a CEO realised how much of talent I have. I have known but doubted myself a lot. I thought being too confident would make me stop learning and trying to be better. But yesterday I realised what a waste of talent I am… I do nothing about myself. I need to finish the damn MBA and do things, many things…
