THE POEM CALLED LIFE

Last minute studying Last minute packing Last minute shopping Last minute filing Last minutes are the minutes that actual matter to me December will be done in another 15 days!!!!!! Then we have a New Year ... Quick .....No time to lose The things that I am doing Need to be done. PS. My mind speaks thus.....ever heard of year-end resolutions?

Here are few things M gifted me that are lying in some safe corner of our multidimensional home.... Camera: The major attraction being the PINK cover -  I have a Nokia 5MP camera phone then why do I need to carry another camera around? Laptop: While I wanted a small handy one he got me a mega sized monster with all the multimedia stuff. He was upset I complained and sold the Dino. Ipod: I like it but am not gizmo enough to use it. Load it and give me and I will use it. I hate the whole process of charging and downloading stuff. Pearl Sets: They have found their second home in my closet which is better than their old fashioned oyster home.Haven't really found 'that' occasion to disturb them.    Salwar suit materials from Jaipur and the likes - I stitch stuff only when I have a function or a trip coming up in the next 24 hrs. The materials he got me range from the 'I-dont-like' shades to the 'kewl' shades so I am either disinterested to stitch it or jitte...

I am worthless I know. I am lethargic to change. The heart wants to make a difference each day. The mind quivers and pains. Around me The Efficient live. I admire and unfazzled I remain. With doors many open I shut my eyes tight.........! Ps. Worthless me....Forgive me Lord for I am wasting the gifts....forgive me!

Of late I have been catching up with a few shows and old/new movies...on TV and at the mall I hate Luv Storys : No I don't :)...I actually love mushy movies with a tint of comedy. This one was ok. Imran is cute. As an actor ?...well this movie didn't require much on that front. Sonam Kapoor has got a very open smile...don't know if its fake but it good :D. The story is about a girl who is 'Girly' and a boy who is 'Boyish' and how they ...ahem! fall in love..what else did u expect? Rating: 2/5 Wake up Sid : Same as above...Discovered that Ranbir can actual act! This story had something more than just a love story. A few tit bits about how easy the present generation (who have their fathers/mothers purse) looks at life, lack of discipline, lack of interest/confidence towards finding your true calling, friends, parents. I liked it. Konkana as the independent and patient friend turned lover is a terrific actor. Rating: 3/5 Om Shanti Om : Am not gonna t...

Amma finished her sabari mala trip and is back with a very bad flu. The trip went on well and she had a very good darshan. While amma was away I had to 'manage' the house. Its not that easy when it includes managing 3 brats ( Acha, M and Achu) who don't have any intersections I could take advantage of. I didn't do very well but I 'managed' to live through...yes they did too. Acha had his normal medical check up. The results are yet to come. Slightly worried with what the Doc is going to say. Prayers. M left to Jaipur today. He should be back in two days.The roads seem smooth and we are making total use of the very little times we agree on things....watching movies,visiting malls, shopping, hunting for flats, test driving, planning holidays....Its been good for the 2 of us. Achu actually loves it when am around.This guy doesn't show how much he misses me when am not there.I bunked office for a couple of days last week as amma was away and found out.  He t...

This is not a happy blog....2 days and I have heard of 3 souls who have departed Sri Thulasi - He managed our family temple in Trivandrum  Thozhuvankode Sri Chamundi Devi Temple for more than 35 years. He is behind the temple's disciplined growth.He still will. Early yester morning he went to pray. He fell at the feet of Devi and passed away. Suresh - He is an AC mechanic. A very hard worker and would come to office and home every now and then to assemble a new AC ,service the ones we have or to answer a complaint. Everytime we had a 'AC related anything' it would be " Suresh-e kupidhungo" ( Call Suresh ). Just met him 2 weeks back at office while he was servicing and had requested him to come home to fix an AC in Achu's room.Now whose going to do that! :( M's Relative - I had met her in Trivandrum some 6 years back. Just once. A very warm person. She has left us too. All so sudden ...too sudden Some people you meet often ...some you don't So...

Being a single child Isolation in life went wild Slowly I evolved to love it Today am a solitude bandit To get that little time I strive and whine While its war at work To-dos at home lurk Company I surely need But my space a bit more indeed Loaded with overlapping tasks I must adorn multiple masks Lost am I in my own busy world With people and thoughts distinctively blurred Today loneliness is a myth Meet me, the Solitude Bandit PS. No this is not the poem I mentioned about in my last post . This one just popped out when a friend of mine wrote about wanting company....and I wrote "Here's my version of  not having ,then having and then wanting to not have any company. But I guess there needs to be a balance. While you need a 'with ppl' break I just need a 'without ppl' break :)
