The Lost One at my Window.

Getting up late is something that happens when Im on a holiday! Today being part of my Weekend Getaway was No Different. But this Morning I was woken up by Something very different, by something other than the screams of my parents saying Im going to be late for college! It was a Pigeon. It reminded me of Masakali, It looked into my window wondering who were the Earthlings inside! It wondered why the Curtain was drawn apart! It wondered why its privacy had gone! It needed to get back at us so it kept poking its nose into our window. From What I figured it was just telling us I want my privacy back! I told it in my mind we'll move in a day so please let me go to sleep! As if it understood me it flew away!
I curled under my Blanket and was about to get the rest of my sleep when the door banged open and my Brother and Mother emerged after a session at the gym. The newly turned fitness freaks!
It surely was time for breakfast. The dream Briton Breakfast?! Well well well, thats exactly almost what I got and eating with Britons made me realise that exactly was the Dream Briton Breakfast.

"Y - M - C - A!"

Ever Since I realised we were going to be staying at The YMCA! Iv been singing the Popular Number to myself! Trying to Imbibe the sense of YMCA maybe. But ever since I heard the fares, Im still trying to Digest the fact that Im living at the YMCA for the same amount I could Live in the Taj West End or Residency or The Leela Palace In Bangalore! I know The typical Malayalee attitude has struck me!
But I do love Staying at the YMCA! When I finally did get up for Dinner, There was a play going on at the Quadrangle, I suppose! Im still to get used to the place! And the Theme was Easter. It surely did make us feel at home! A lot of things make us feel at home but the pinch of the Fares surely did not make me feel at home!
Dinner was absolutely awesome! Being a supposed ex Diet Conscious Freak, I was so happy I wasn't one any longer and just dug in! Now Im waiting for breakfast already even though thats 9 hours away now! Overall YMCA Delhi is not like the other YMCA's Iv stayed in! Its a different Experience. Well It has to be else the Fares wouldn't be so much!
I think whats affected me is I wouldn't be able to shop so much just cause of this! Well we'll just have to see! But the fact that Our Car too gave
way by Puncturing itself took me aback.
The look from the balcony of our Room is awesome! We've got awesome Neighbours too, The Organising Committee building for the Common Wealth Games 2010 and The Park which is a little away!
The YMCA hasn't caught my attention still much but I love staying here! So Il just have to Pray tomorrow is a better day! And I hope Holy Saturday does do its wonders cause Good Friday was not that Good!

I do not want to be DTOA (Dead Tired On Arrival)!

A trip to the Capital city of India, during a hectic week in the middle of a semester for just a weekend can easily be the best get away I could ever think Of!
Iv been waiting for a holiday! And I just do not want to be Tired on arrival! It usually happens cause Im air sick! Well thinking over it Im basically Travel Sick. But I love exploring places and If ever there was a stream of Undergraduate Courses which dealt with just travel and had a good scope, I would easily have opted for that! But going by the trend Engineering seemed right then! I have No complaints of that though!
Anyways an Early Morning Flight out of Bangalore has a lot of Implications! It means getting up early with the experiences we've had of getting up an hour and a half before the flight we're used to it!
We're out of Our House by 4 and the only tune which keeps humming itself in my Mind was "Leaving on a Jet Plane"! The scenic beauty to the Bengaluru International Airport is always Amazing and it takes my breath away everytime!
But within No time were we in the race with other cabs. So I take out my earphones plug it in and go into a World Of My Own!
I get up in the middle and realise we've reached the Airport, then I started dreading the Journey cause there has only been a travel when I have never shown any Uneasiness! Thanks to my Co Passenger. She kept giving me boosts of Confidence! Well this time its different, this time Im not on my Own! I have my entire family!
By the end of the 2 and a half hour Journey, I realise what the best way to beat the Uneasiness is! Sleep through the entire journey on My Amma' Lap. I wonder what Il do on my Journey back, considering Im going back on my Own again!
Well the famous T3 Terminal took me by surprise. It was amazing! It was like No Airport Iv seen before! It was Awesome! Was this just the beginning of an awesome Weekend Getaway with extremely Out of this world Roaming Charges!? Well it did start as one.
The reason we came to Delhi was a Promotional Transfer! Transfers always give me the jitters! It keeps us all apart but the very fact that its Just a 2 and a half hour flight away, Just an Std call away, Just a National Sms away! It eases my Nerves.
And I still believe in What happens, Always happens for the Good!
Our First stop was the Quarters but we had nothing to spend a day in it! So we decided Shopping and before anything Eating. We were famished!
We go to the Famous South Indian Creation - Saravana Bhavan! It made us feel at home but the prices did make me feel we were paying a bit too much for eating in a place just like home, So far away from Home!
Jet Lag didn't bother me once I realised I was to go Shopping! But that was Short Lived. My Mother fell sick and she was so in need of some Well deserved rest. After all it was a holiday! My Father did not think Twice! Within No Time we were Checked in to The YMCA! I was not DTOA, until I sat on the bed and Got up by 7 in the evening for Dinner!

The Procastinators Bug!

I surely am One person whose been bitten badly by the Procastinator' bug. And Very Very Badly at that!


I had started A Blog about something very close to my heart and I don't seem to get past the second post! I blame it on technology not having advanced to the point where- Whats on my Mind is Interpreted into my Blog!

Im in a bid to Lose weight and the only thing Iv seen myself doing is eating all the stuff which Im not supposed to! I blame this on me not getting the Genes which my Brother has.

Yet again Iv made up my mind to go jogging tomorrow. Im Glad my Friend does not know I procastinate too much! Which I probably will end up proving it to her by sleeping that extra half hour! Again I blame this on College wasting up Most of my Valuable energy to do good stuff!

I had decided that This season of Lent, I will surely fast and give up on my favourites. Only to break it on Ash Wednesday evening! And I blame this upon Getting up in the middle of my sleep and sitting at the dining table all Groggy not knowing what I was eating.

Iv tried giving up The Net for a week! Alas Something Important came up in between.

I just realised along with the Procastinator' Bug, Iv been bitten by the Excusitis Bug.
For EVERY procastination there is An EQUAL and OPPOSITE excuse.


So many Plans, So many dreams, they will remain just so near, yet so far away If I don't get rid of the Bugs soon!

So Iv decided that tomorrow I surely will think of ways to eradicate them Cause Now Im just too Tired.

Not just Another Day!

Another day passes by... I wish she would live forever. I wonder sometimes why Pandora ever opened the box! And brought death and pain out of it! I see her suffer and at times I just dont seem to know who to blame. I would gladly take her place and just want that moment where she is truly happy and full of strength and she looks after me! She realised today that I would take her
place that made me so happy. They formed the band aid which kept us all together! If She leaves, the glue which kept the band aid on will surely go forever.
She is on a bed which No one knows she'll ever recover from! She still at this point Thanks God for giving us to her! She is so Grateful for having Daughters like what she has.
She still keeps a tab on our studies and tell us that Prayers and Luck comes hand in hand!
She remembers her Grand daughter' love marriage! And says how could she ever forget.
She has not realised the facts of life and has not realised the people who have been fake around her!
She is my Grandmother! Around her I cannot express myself cause I can never be the weakling I am in front of her!
I love her very much and Ammachi I assure you every single person will be brought to justice. Even your own Blood!

Someone called Ammachi!

She looks into my eyes with known familiarity.
She can't seem to place who I am!
She knows There is that Bond!
But she can't seem to place the where and How!
I hold her hands,
She reciprocates
Little do I know whats in store.
She takes it up to gently kiss it!
My heart skips a beat knowing she recognises me!
I wish with all my heart that I could replace Her situation.
All I want is her to be with me till the end!
I fight with her but I love her so much!
That it would tear me into pieces knowing that she would leave me sometime.
She's lived her life with truth as her slippers.
With Grace as her armour.
With Strength so great that she could overcome the greatest of disasters.
She is my Grandmother! Ammachi even though now you may never realise, How much I love you!
I just Hope that someday you will!
I hope that all those people who hurt you are brought into Light and given what they truly deserve.
You may not know now who plays the most cause your just a little baby whose at the extremes of the adjective- Naive.
That any change in reaction to them would be called a change in her entire system brought about by external sources.
I love you Ammachi now and forever more!

That One Last Moment...

I feel God does everything for a reason! The reason' varying for different people! For some it maybe for the good! For some it maybe for the bad! But The loss of a loved one affects us the most. Always! I wonder if I were to be faced with just one last moment left in this world what I would ask for.. I would want my entire family and friends with me! I would want to ask for forgiveness to all I have hurt, only my near and dear fall under that category and tell them I love them!
Some people just end their lives not wondering how it is for a Cancer Patient or even a Multiple Organ Failure patient in their final moments. Those final moments are those moments which these patients want more of! But So many people just give it up for Nothing! Those people who attempt Suicide never realise that those moments which led them to it, would one day change forever. But instead they prefer not to fight. They are cowards and dont know that Life is made of these moments. Even God has promised that after good times bad times will follow. And Bad times will surely be followed by Good times, its the cycle of Life! God has given us Life not for us to waste it away and Only he has the right to take it away! Never be afraid of facing Life cause God is Always there to catch you when you fall! Someone once told me that "God answers your prayers to Increase your faith. God delays in answering your Prayers when he wants to Increase your patience. And when he knows you can do it, he stays back and watch you work!"
Our Life is predetermined and the only thing which is known about Our Life on Earth is Death! All of us will die one day, we may not be able to Fall in Love forever. We may not be able to give our best for everything. But we all know that death is for sure! So unless God takes it away just treasure it like you will treasure a Hundred Billion Dollars. Cause you get only one of it!
