Mixing Sun and Rain to create my own Rainbow

Finally I enter the Kitchen, which I was supposed to do in the sabbatical that I took off work. Never the less, this is what I cooked up. My Favourite 'Yellow rice with Masala curry'. Spicy Spicy :p Yummy.

And so I turn a year older, or shall I sound cliché by saying I turn a year younger! You know what I mean. And so I wonder, wondering about my life check list. I can’t be turning a year older every year without checking the points off my list. Right? It wouldn’t be fair to make a list then. But yes I am on my way, checked off two points this year :) Yep, feel great about it and hopefully before the year ends shall be checking a couple more. And then I wonder, again, about how the past year has been. You know, trying to ponder and see if you’ve done and been good to yourself and others sort of a thing. I may not be that old to say “Life has taught me lessons” but none the less, the past year has been pretty much enlightening even though the hard way – it was totally worth it. The kind of feeling, where you thank God for the way things turned out in your life and only then were you able to see the light he’s been trying to guide you through. Mind you, it hurts to learn it this way but it...

One thing I have surely learnt in near past life. It’s not easy to handle pets (Especially dogs). The kind of attention they need is no less than a basic requirement to a family member. And I would also share this information with people who think keeping pets is an easy job – or have them at home and delegate the dirty work to someone else. I learn much with experience each day as it comes with Troy. He has recently turned a year older. Time to celebrate; with each passing day I ‘think’ that he grows up, stop chewing, stop jumping. But in vain these behavior patterns still exist. Now Im not sure if I am really cut out to be a pet owner because my parents think I fail big time at it. Mum actually mocks me. “Mama I want a dog” is what I used to say to her. I said it so often, then finally decided they will gift me one on my birthday. (Okay I may have insisted a bit) I totally adore him, I do and so do my family members. But it’s just recently the puppy boy has been infested by ticks. Po...

Universally united at Twitter. I must admit, that wasn’t my tagline – oh yes I was prompted – and I still won something for it. That feels great, so what if I dint win the x-box or bid for it. A fun packed evening, meeting and greeting the ones you’ve known from before and newer faces – what better place to socialize than the Oman Twestival. For something that just came up within a week I must say the experience was exhilarating. The things we do to contribute for a better living for some other lives. Having around 140 people to join hands for the same just further adds a drop to the ocean. Im not really sure how the Twestival goes worldwide, pardon my knowledge, – but the Oman Twestival sure did make ‘waves’ in this country, all the more as the location was thoughtfully picked. I am pleased to have been a part of this event. I was even wondering whether to write this piece – but then I remembered someone once told me that it is never too late to thank or appreciate somebody’s effort. ...

This is something I had written few years ago, Kind of shocked myself when I happen to go through it after such a long time. Was wondering is this what I have really written??.But I guess this is what love is, was or always will be. I wish I had a picture to post with this, but since its been ages, I might not come across a picture which would be able to emote the exact feeling I had 'back then'. Anyways these are my emotions none the less and this is how I felt 'back then'. 'Im Alive Again' Everytime I hear voice I feel alive again Those lonely days When I Feel nothing, hear nothing I feel alive Everytime I hear your voice The whole day passes by with your thoughts the things you've done, we've done the time we've spent together nothing can match up to that except your voice when Im here, your there I feel alive Everytime I hear your voice It makes me want to leave everything and come back to you relive that life we've spent together feel happy ...

As I sit with both you men in the car Its fun The way you guys call each other names This time here is the best We listen to songs we love .. on the way We sing the songs we love We fight on the songs we want to listen to Offcourse its only human to have different taste's in music but I am loving this time with both of you.. On our way to Salalah As we eat, as we stop J av the way you say "change the song" N im the way you shake your hands The way we face the dunes Way to go Will miss all this once gone Lets live it as 'Right here .. Right now' Jav the way you say the only thing good about Nim .. His music Nim the way you say "Chomu" All on our way to Salalah Fuel fuel and more fuel Road road and more road As we drive in darkness and speed Gonna miss this once gone The way I sit behind Retired after my driving time Typing all this as Nim drives Both wondering why am I so quite Little do they know Im writing this piece just for both of them. "Bhe...

Just as I was thinking of making my Bucket list, I don’t know why but Sky diving was one of the obvious things to do. And while I started making the list, I was lost in memory of my ‘free spirited jump’ That’s what I like to call it. Well this is how the incident goes: It was one of the usual family get togethers where my parents and their friends and their children who would be my friends during the cool winter mid morning decided to head to a destination. Very common of us to park outside the ‘meeting point’ at Sarooj to get ourselves all assembled, fueled up on fuel and food knowing its going to be a long exciting adventurous day ahead. We plan to go to Wadi Tiwi and there was this huge smile on my face as I love long drives, they don’t ever bore or tire me. (Long story to blog about someday) 210Kms to our destination, we stop, we ate, we clicked pictures, we would sit about anywhere on our way, I am guessing it is the company of people that makes you do so. ...

Dreamt about you, yes you - the one who is away from me Could feel you so close as if in me Din't want it to fade away, this dream In a long time, with you, thats the closest I've been
