New year post

Hey, I almost forgot that my last post was a 'not-so-nice' one. Can't have such a post adorning my blog so lets take inspiration from my Guru Mr. Deepak Gupta and post this beauty by Emily Dickenson. Deepak sir sent this to us yesterday as part of his Monday Morning mail to us.... So here it is, the first post of the new year dedicated to him and his joie de vivre

life


If I can stop one heart from breaking,
I shall not live in vain;
If I can ease one life the aching,
Or cool one pain,
Or help one fainting robin
Unto his nest again,
I shall not live in vain.

falling with a 'thud'

Sometimes optimism can be a bitch ! you think positive and think that things will work out... but naaah! it doesnt happen sometimes that way ! Life can be a bitch some times - Hell bent upon teaching bitter lessons. But hey, what to do if I refuse to learn from my mistakes... well instinctiveness can also be a bitch sometimes !! Nonsense can also be a bitch sometimes - making me feel as if I am the only one making a mistake in the process of trying to make things work out. As if the others are perfection and matuarity personified. And then sometime I myself am a bitch - i write posts like this !! Lol ! Everythings a bitch sometimes - Ha ! Ha ! Ha !

NEWS

NEWS - is North East West South. I don't find any of that on TV. Whatever happened to good old information !!!! And the sight of Barkha Dutt makes me puke. Once upon a time she was my 'dream date' ! Lol ! The Headley 'investigation' sounded like some soap from primetime tv - what with all the sound effects and background razzmatazz ... whew! I just dont feel like watching news on tv.

Grrrr !!! :-{

All my life I thought am a Sagittarius, but now am finding many astrology columns listing out my birth date under the capricorn section !! what the hell is this?
how can the dates change ....? I was born a sagittarius as till a few months ago sagittarius was till 22nd december. And today I find two columns in different publications saying sagittarius is till 20th december.... buggers knocked off two days and in the bargain made me into a completely different personality !!

buggers !!! :-(

Say it Possible & still not possible

I can't believe I missed Terra Naomi's visit to Bangalore. God, I read about it and then made plans and then completely forgot about it. Screw you Anup !!!!!

Oh one more of my much awaited events has passed by without me making it there.
To those who do not know about her, just do a google search or go to youtube and listen to "Say it possible" . And if you like her music, then please come back and thank me ( i love some sense of self-importance ). Read about how she made her music famous ! Watch out for more of her in the years to come !! Thats my word for it !

Hey btw, did any of you check out Ronan Keating's version of Time after Time? Lovely he sings. Naomi also has done a video cover of the same song.... again her vocal abilites stand up. But Ronan you rock too man !! Check out his new album "Songs for my mother". :-)

Nice - The best biscuit in the world

Did I tell you all that 'Nice Time' from Britannia is my favourite biscuit in the world? Now, how do you care for that piece of news? Well, you should if you know that I can even kill anyone, be mean, lose my cool and sulk like hell if I am deprived of this piece of heaven that Vinita Bali's company makes ! It used to be called 'Nice' till a couple of years ago before Britannia renamed it as Nice Time. So my mom knows this as Nice and buy this always whenever she shops for her tea-time snacks.

Wow, irresistable and mouth watering...no other food in this world ever tastes better in my mouth than this biscuit. Lovely ! Ummmm.... dream date would be a cup of tea and Nice Time bisucits :-) and oh ya a girl too if unavoidable ! ;-P but she wont get more than one biscuit.

I have to dedicate this post to the only food in the world that makes me ecstatic. Bravo ! Ever tried dal, rice, veggies, chicken fry and Britannia Nice time biscuits? Well, even I have not. but its lying there in front of me and i will try it out. I love you Nice :-)

I believe in Angels

In continuation to the last post, I had this song on my lips whenever I was thinking about what I wrote in the last post. While on my way back from work, I started humming this song, which I had heard first on the 'Coast to Coast' album of Westlife in 1999. Its ABBA's 1979 song 'I Have a Dream'. Love the sitar riff and the lyrics.
In my downcast mood as described in the last post, I kept on humming this song and surprisingly felt better. Still do. I believe in each word of the song. Strange how some songs you never forget and come back to you at key moments of your life.

I have a dream,
a song to sing
To help me cope with anything
If you see the wonder,
of a fairy tale
You can take the future even if you fail
I believe in angels,
Something good in everything I see,
I believe in angels,
When I know the time is right for me,
I'll cross the stream,
I have a dream

I have a dream,
a fantasy,
To help me through reality,
And my destination makes it worth the while
Pushing through the darkness
still another mile
I believe in angels,
Something good in everything I see
I believe in angels,
When I know the time is right for me
I'll cross the stream - I have a dream


I have a dream,

Something good in everything I see
I believe in angels.
When I know the time is right for me
I'll cross the stream
I have a dream
I'll cross the stream
I have a dream
