Birthday wishes

Tuesday, July 31, 2007

wishes do come true… in reality too :)

The flights… last minute bookings… and not so grand entries… damn, the boarding gates hadn’t even opened when we reached there!! ;-)

The acco… the damsel does good research… the dumbo rejects them all and trusts the taxi driver! Anyways except for the food, the place was good and the sea view from the balcony was beautiful.

The rains… tries to play a spoilsport… lil did it realize the bike ride and the coffee had just got better :)

The bike ride… always fun… and the childish thrill :)

The churches… the greenery… the sea… the fort… and some wishes… just snapshots of a not so relaxed vacation!

The brave one… and that’s me... but still too scared to try a few new things!

The roses… a lost one and a treasured one… and it is fast fading.

The trip… couldn’t ask for more… was gleefully happy… ignored the world… was happy to be lost… was happy to be the girl in my dream… was just happy to be happy :)

didn’t want it to end…

… jolted back to reality… I am a quarter century old!!!

Weekend trips

Thursday, July 19, 2007

I knew the response even before I wrote the mail… haven’t I been doing this for a long time! Truthfully, I hate planning trips, calling people and getting disappointed ‘coz it is always the same response… uninterested and unavailable.

The weather is good… time to go out and see places… and relax… and I am not wasting my weekends. Jawz, you decided to get outta Mumbai at the wrong time. Even though she has given excuses before, she is one person who loves getting out on the roads as much as me… and she also doesn’t need the crowd to get entertained, just like me.

Hmm… at least I tried… for all those blaming me for not doing the usual weekend things, I did try and you are the ones who said “uninterested and unavailable”.

300 pagers

Monday, July 16, 2007

One more failed attempt at the Suitable Boy… hence decided to buy only less than 300 pagers… Read 4 books in a month when one Suitable Boy was attempting to impede my reading abilities!

Conquered:
Catcher in the Rye
By the river piedra I sat down and wept
A Breath of Fresh Air
Above Average

Reader Beckons for the week.

Back in the gym

Yup… that’s me again… new clothes, new shoes and new socks… same office, same music, same instructor… and I am back in action :)

This time with more energy… more determination… and hopefully, more time.

0.7 Kgs in 5 days… not a bad deal… fitting into my cute small clothes (which is half my wardrobe) doesn’t seem a like a dream anymore :)

I own the gym… I own the music… and truthfully I hate to exercise… but my cute lil clothes, I am not letting u die :)

The Floor

Friday, July 13, 2007

feels different… is empty even when people are around.
Unlike ever, people are busy in their own thoughts… or they are there but not here.

The seniors are long gone… all the Ms are either traveling or interviewing… one busy friend with his head phones on and the other in cal… she is getting into the mode of coming to office only when she doesn’t have work! ... it’s the boss last week… the only people who are still the same are the secretaries (actually not all).

I am back to office after a long week… am already in the Saturday mood… and there are still deadlines around… reader beckons after a week’s break… searching for a chocolat… want to change something… and the hairstyle cannot be touched so soon.

Federer wins… Nadal is still my hero… and Sampras is still the God.

Ferrari is back to winning days… but it is never the same in the post Schumi-era.

Sachin and Saurav opening again… pleasure to watch… those were the days…but I am not mad again.
