Oh! Oh!

India lost the test match, couldn't they have dragged it for few more minutes?

Also, I wish I knew what Harbhajan said to aggravate the Aussies; for them to have titled it as racial.

Phew!

As if the Australian cricket team isn't strong enough, did we need Steve Bucknor to display his poor umpiring skills?

Alas! India had to bear the brunt! <>

2008 is here!

2008 seemed so far far away a few years back, but it is finally here. New Years eve was a blast, thanks to my husband's friends who are now my friends. Some of us danced 5-6 hours at a stretch and it was almost therapeutic for me. We made a road trip from Boston to Atlanta, yes, rather long but was fun with a big group of friends. It was an ideal break, I couldn't have asked for more.

I have never really made any resolutions when a new year begins, but this time round certainly my perspective has changed on a whole lot of things. After a bumpy 2007 I hope this would be a better year, personally.

Shaan

Shaan has been my favorite Hindi singer for years now. I simply love his voice.

Have I been tuned enough?

As much as I think sometimes our lives to some extent, is quite programmed, sometimes I wonder why isn't it completely programmed? that would solve a lot of worries and save a lot of energy, don't you think?

Sometimes, I wish my life was completely tuned to the signals set by these norms (set by society or whoever..).

My fav songs...

Talat Mahmood and Hemant Kumar

Holiday time!

Christmas season always brings pleasant memories for me. It used to be busy time at school, with half yearly exams finishing up, the Catholicism group singing carols, the decorative setup of the scene when Jesus was born and finally the school closing for Christmas break. At work the usual lively Christmas parties entertained me in New Zealand. (And then when we were back in the new year the gossip email be published ;)). Now that I have seen white Christmas here in the US, the summer time in the southern hemisphere has a different charm , which one should experience, but white Christmas is just picture perfect :)

Then came the time in my life when New Years eve celebration was a big deal! Secunderabad club was the preferred destination. Days ahead we would decide what to wear, bargain (with parents) for permission to stay up late and created all the fuss as much as we could as young women. Somehow since I have left India I have never ever had as great a New Years as I did back home. I am hoping this time it would be different though!
