Well Nancy That!

Well, I was tagged by Nancy - and I have no idea how THAT works - so I just copy pasted this from hers:

I am: what I am.

I think: but not before I speak.

I know: left from right, but rarely right from wrong.

I want: what I can't have.

I have: crazy hair - you can't miss it.

I wish: I always had just enough money in my purse ALL the time.

I hate: self-righteous people. They make me feel guilty.

I miss: my childhood days. My folks were the centre of my existence. And I was theirs.

I fear: death. But not mine so much.

I feel: for the person reading this.

I hear: voices in my head, often too late known as The Voice of Reason.

I smell: that funny smell that cats leave behind. My brother has cats. I am in his house now.

I crave: spicy beef biltong and waffles with cream (separate, not together - ewww!).

I search: for my glasses when I am wearing them.

I wonder: at God's marvellous creations. Simply amazing!

I regret: many many things, none of which I can do ANYTHING about (shrug).

I love: the people in my life. Oh, I love them!

I ache: in that region right above my coccyx - a sign of fast-approaching middle age.

I am not: perfect, nor do I want to be.

I dance: because I can!

I sing: because I believe I can! Doesn't matter what you think!

I cry: at the drop of a hat!

I don't always: mince my words.

I fight: like a lunatic - screaming, arms thrown about, words not making any sense.

I write: what I feel, but end up feeling rather shallow and depressed afterwards.

I win: some. And that's not a lot considering I like to win.

I lose: hope easily.

I never: do well in exams. People say it's cos I don't study but I dunno...

I always: do the predictable.

I confuse: Uh...What?

I listen: if it's interesting, else why bother?

I can usually be found: lying curled up in bed with a novel or a laptop.

I need: to be right. Always.

I am happy about: very little in life. Ungrateful wretch that I am, I seek out melancholy to fuel my melodrama.

I imagine: a world without rape, hunger, war, poverty, pollution, etc - yeah I am SO wild!

    Yup, the matter after the colons are all mine. I guess some of the stuff I write broadens my own perspective on things. But some stuff feels really mundane and ordinary when you consider the bigger picture. Maybe I just shouldn't consider the bigger picture eh? Thank YOU for stopping by. Take care.

    "I think: but not before I speak."
    Oooohhh I suffer from this same malady:-S

    "I hate: self-righteous people. They make me feel guilty."
    They just irritate the heck out of me. And I retaliate by acting more self-righteous than them & that irritates them to no end. Try it, it works;-P

Paralysis

I feel so much has happened in the three months of my married life but never has there been an opportunity to put it down in words. Some times I start writing only to get easily distracted when I see a tag or a useless quiz on Facebook. I wish I could say I did "nothing" with my life these past 3 months - but that is not entirely true. Those who know me, know that I cannot sit idle, and that I thrive on my work. But now, having relocated to Hyderabad - I am happy to be a housewife because that is a whole new territory that I have never been exposed to. My mother was a working woman, and every childhood friend I have had, had mums who were working women. I am not trying to say that housewives do not work - in fact, I am trying to say exactly the opposite. There are so many minute details that go into running a household - I am in awe at how my mother did all that she did. That aside, we have an addition to the family - a 2-month-old male labrador, our baby - we have named him ...

A Picture Speaks

I was tagged by Renu and the rules are: Pick the 6th picture of your 6th photo folder. Tell a story around it. Pass it on to six other people you like. So when I saw this a few days ago I was like: Oh my God please don't let it be a picture of me looking cross-eyed or something equally bad. Even before I checked to see what the picture was I was tempted to select any "cool" picture from one of my albums and pass if off as the 6th of the 6th. How ever, to be fair, I arranged my folders according to Name, and then looked. And this is what I found: These are my last set of college gal pals. I say last because I have been to 4 colleges so far in my life, and a degree and two post graduations later the greatest lesson I have learned is that GOOD friends are REALLY hard to find. (If my mother hears of this she would say "You didn't have to waste my money on college tuition to learn THAT - I could have told you for FREE!) This picture was taken when we went bowling -...

Friends Like Us

Who, in a world with satellite television, does not know F.R.I.E.N.D.S? More importantly, who does not like them? I know I did, still do in fact :O) - even if Star World is over doing it a tad bit. Makes you wonder if they don't have ANY other sitcom they could air but this one. And trust me, there are some brilliant ones out there. When hubby comes home from work, the norm is to sit together with a cup of chai and watch the funnies on Star World. It usually coincides with the double episode of FRIENDS every evening, which we sit through just to watch what ever comes after. Today though, they played the last episode of Season 10 followed by the first episode of Season 1!!! I was hit with nostalgia as I travelled back in time to the nineties! I still remember the day in high school when all we could talk about was the previous night's episode when the Friends gang watches the prom night video (when Ross was supposed to take Rachel because her date ditched her). As a teen, we co...
