Grass is green on the other side :(

Why is grass always greener on the other side, no matter which side you are on?
I guess that's how life is...

I remember the time I came to US.. Was so happy about the fact that I got a break from work, studies n the daily grind. I could wake up at my own hours, not worry about being anywhere on time, not worry about meeting targets (was with sales n marketing with a reputed airlines before), not worry about the clients complaints or my boss's kit kit ;)
but how long do you think this new found happiness lasted.. 3 months maybe.. then I started getting bored! started missing mom, her food (as i was/am a very bad cook... hmmm not bad but i don't enjoy cooking much) my relatives n their gossips, roadside shopping, wriggling my way out in the traffic on my cute little scooty.. was so much fun... the same things which i hated were something which i started missing.. the joy that i got when my targets were achieved, the funny boss.. n other stuffs... i think that's one problem with me.. i feel my boss is not fit to be a boss n he reached there.. just coz he a$$ licked n doesn't have the required knowledge n skills or BRAINS :P the idea still remains the same :)

OK back to track.. after 3 months of lazing around n basically doing nothing i started getting bored n bored.. my work permit came through but was not getting any job.. reached the highest point in the pyramid of frustration and was about to explode that's when i got my current job..
Boy! I was so happy to start work again.. first few days i used to wait to go to work.. getting up early n getting ready to work was something that i was looking forward to.. didn't know what Monday morning blues were....but now.. its settled in n its just another routine.. I'm kinda used to the daily rigmarole of life.... but not complaining! coz i know how it is to just sit at home... cook n clean :O

Love - beyond life......... Part 1

im not a good writer infact i used to hate writing essays and paragraphs... but this one is very close to my heart.

Sharon, Simmi and Aryan were friends from school. Orphaned at a very young age fate got them together in the govt school. They played together, laughed together and were friends for life. Shaaron and Aryan wanted to spend the rest of their life together and wanted to have a bunch of kids and give them all that which they missed out in ther growing days. Life moved on and all 3 young people landed in blore from a small town named Sundarnagar. Raj by fate was
Aryans room-mate in Blore.

Sharon - beautiful, vivacious, bold, outgoing, short tempered and head strong girl who takes rash decisions..fashion designer y profession.
Simmi - calm, beautiful, smart, knows what she wants in life, very romantic and always dreams of her knight in shining armour, optimistic and down to earth. She was the calming factor for in Sharon's life. wants to be a school teacher and have an orphanage of her own so that she can help in giving a good future for the homeless deserted kids.
Aryan - charmer, playboy, flirt, wants to have everything in life, bold, loves Sharon but does not mind experimenting when given a chance. a part time model and sales manager.
Raj - only son of very rich parents who never had time for him in his growing years and passed away in a car crash. grew up with his nanny who loved him more than his mother. down to earth, smart, intelligent a good sense of humour, every girls dream, and wants to fall in love with a girl asap and marry her and wants to give his wife and children as much time as possible. CEO of his fathers company.

Sharon and Aryan wold often go out of town for their small getaways and sharon would drag simmi along. Simmi would hate it as she often felt like kabab mein haddi and would go out on her own and explore places.

This weekends get away was planned by Aryan and he forced Raj along with him so that Simmi would have some company and the love birds would feel a little less guilty plus they wanted them to get hitched together.

It was a beautiful mornig fit for a long drive, cool breeze with light sun just the way simmi loved it. She was all wxited about going to Ooty as she had never been there and had herd of it as a very beautiful romantic place. Simmi had some work in school and hence it was decided that simmi and sharon would join Aryan and Raj later by the stream near masinagudi.
raj and simmi were not at all looking forward to meet each other but sharon and raj were all exited about their hanky panky get away.

as decided sharon reached simmi's school by 10am and picked her up. The drive was perfect with the cool breeze and light sun. simmi was reading up on the place, the attractions, history and the other tiny meeny details which she always took care of. The car pulled over near the stream and sharon galloped towards her lover boy forgetting all about simmi and raj. simmi being the well mannered and decent said her pleasentaris and walked towards the stream. she liked the way the cold water trickled on hee feet. she felt totally relaxed and sat down on a rock in bw the stream and started dreaming. meantime raj who was totally mesmerized by simmi had not batted an eyelid or moved from the place. when he set eyes on simmi he knew she was the one he was looking for all his life.

Sharon and aryan got back after their shrot trip to the jungle and started laughing at raj as he was standing and staring at simmi with hs mouth wide open.
they resumed their journey but this time simmi was in raj's car and sharon wanted to spend some intimate momets with aryan.

the journey was quite uncomfortable as simmi had no interest in the raj and raj just wanted to hold her and never let go of her.
Their cottages were facing the valley and had a nice garden. Simmi was a very simple girl at heart and the small things gave her much pleasure. sharon at one end was complaining about the hotel not being upto her expectations and simmi was busy looking at the flowers and lost in her own wonderland. Raj and aryan returned after they settled the booking and getting all the luggages inside. as usual aryan and sharon shut themselves in the cozy room, sitting next to the fire place and whispering sweet nnothings into each others ears.

Simmi was out in the garden for a while and then she decided to check out ooty city. As she was heading out she heard some one calling out her name. it was raj who was walking fast towards her. he asked if he could join her, it did not matter for her if he was there or not. on their drive towards the city they got talking about their job, life, city, likes, dislikes, interests and all the blah blahs.

Baa, Baa, Black Sheep

Yes sir, yes sir,
Three bags full.

Who lives down the lane.

Ding Dong Bell
Ding, dong, bell,
Pussy's in the well.
Who put her in?Little Johnny Lin. Who pulled her out?Little Tommy Stout. What a naughty boy was that,To try to drown poor pussy cat, Who never did him any harm,And killed the mice in his father's barn.

LITTLE BO-PEEP
Little Bo-Peep has lost her sheep,And can't tell where to find them;Leave them alone, and they'll come home,Wagging their tails behind them.

Little Bo-Peep fell fast asleep,And dreamt she heard them bleating;But when she awoke, she found it a joke,For still they all were fleeting.

Then up she took her little crook,Determined for to find them;She found them indeed, but it made her heart bleed,For they'd left all their tails behind them!

It happened one day, as Bo-peep did strayUnto a meadow hard by--There she espied their tails side by side,All hung on a tree to dry.

She heaved a sigh and wiped her eye,And over the hillocks she raced;And tried what she could, as a shepherdess should,That each tail should be properly placed.

Face Reading continued.........

The Face as a Map
One of the core beliefs in Chinese medicine is that the part contains the whole. The idea of the face as a map can be applied in many ways, not just as in indicator of past and future health, or times of life, but also as a way to diagnose organs and body parts. This is based on pathways of the deep and superficial meridians and on the three divisions from top to bottom.
Kidney
If you’ve been overworking, worrying, not sleeping, drinking too much coffee and trying to juggle too many commitments, look at your kidney/liver area which is the half moon-shaped area under the eye. If the area is puffy and blue, you are working too hard, depleting your adrenals, eating too much rich food and causing an imbalance in the fluid balance of the body. Look at your ears and if they are redder than the skin on your face, you are overworking your adrenal glands. This also applies if the inner corner of the eye has a sunken, dark blue look to it.
Liver
However, if the area is dark brown and has a congested look, your liver is showing signs of “liver energy stagnation”. This could mean that your liver is stressed, possibly through pent-up frustration or anger or rich food and alcohol. If this indication is combined with one-sided headaches, jaw tension and two vertical lines between the eyebrows you could find that fat and hormone metabolism is affected. If the two vertical lines from the end of the eyebrows are combined with two smaller hook-shaped lines, this means that the gall bladder is also showing stress. Spots and lines on the forehead point to congestion from too much oily food or dairy.
Stomach and Intestines
The mouth shows the energy of the stomach and intestines and the lower part of the face relates to the lower abdomen. Congestion such as white spots or a granular-like feeling under the skin and blotchy areas may point to yeast infection, too much dairy or sugar in the diet. If the chin is red and swollen, it may mean that there is a structural weakness in the organs, candida or stuck energy in the abdomen. If the lower lip protrudes, this shows a sluggish colon and if the top lip is cracked, red, or has spots at the corner, this could indicate stomach acidity or heat caused by inappropriate diet. Lines which go down the cheek from the inner corner of the eye are another indication of a bowel problem. A yellow colour around the mouth and lack of tone in the mouth indicate that the digestive energy is weak and a change of diet and enzymes are needed. On the other hand, a green colour indicates that the liver is the prime cause of the problem. Very thin lips indicate someone who may have workaholic tendencies.
Lungs
Redness, puffiness and breakouts around the nostrils and lower cheek indicate too many dairy products which produce mucus and congestion in the lungs. You may be on the verge of a bronchial infection if this area suddenly becomes red and dry.
Energy and Vitality
The eyebrows relate to our creative, mental and sexual energies and the amount of drive and go we have. They are also a pointer to how we relate to others, family and society. The larger and thicker they are, then the more forceful, driven, active and possibly aggressive their owner will be. By contrast, fine eyebrows denote sensitivity and less robust health. Hairs growing in different directions show a restless mind, someone who needs help to focus, while pointed eyebrows belong to someone who is innovative, determined, independent and likes to be first in everything they do. Dark crescent-shaped eyebrows belong to people who need to make decisions intuitively and like to work with others. They show strong water energy . Thyroid problems are indicated by eyebrows which dissipate at the ends. The elements present in a face indicate the strengths and weaknesses that the person has to deal with in this life; the shape of features set the pattern and timing of events in a life. The zones show current and potential health patterns. So, when reading a face it is important to take each feature within the context of the whole.

Face Reading!!

Introduced to by my friend Rohan and Zane-

Different types of faces by Zane-

Wood face
The wood type face is rectangular in appearanceIt has uniformity of width and is far longer than it is wideThe forehead of this type of face is likewise high and usually possesses well-defined creases In men there is often receding hairline.This face type is associated with warmth and optimism The possessor of the wood face is energetic, with leadership potential, strong ideals and determination He is popular , wins friends easily and is charitable He can demand that things must be done in his way and may express him in arrogant mannerThe wood face is also associated with strong religious or philosophical convictions

The Fire Face
The fire face has a wide jaw and a narrow foreheadIn shape it resembles an upward pointing triangleThe temperament of a person with a fire face is likely to be rather heated and excitable resulting from a unhappy childhood or other factors of distressing background The ambitions are very strong since he has a desire to remove himself as far from his origin as possibleThis desire also provides a key to his lack of patience and outbursts of anger when his plans are thwartedFire faced people tend to be lucky, highly sexed, physically attractive and can be extremely persuasive and charmingFire faced person usually has a string of broken relationships in his past

The Earth Face
This type of face resembles square shape The complexion tends to be ruddy, the hair often bushy and the eyes somewhat red but expressive of authorityThe nose and the mouth also will tend to be wide, lips are quite thin and the teeth smallThe earth face is an indicator of toughness and determination, and are more likely to be utterly stubborn The energy levels are high and there is a tendency to immediately leap to conclusions before the facts are fully knownHis temper is quick and unpredictableThis type of person can impulsively get himself to troubleHe lacks inner strength to extricate himself without considerable helpHe enjoys good health and active social life

The Metal Face
The metal face is opposite of fire face . It is rather oval but can be thought of as an inverted triangleThe facial features are regular and rather refined, however the mouth may either be slightly too large or smallThe fairly large eyes are lively and active denoting intelligence and sharp perceptionsThe possessor of this type of face lives in his head. His mind is extremely active and rarely gives him any peace He loves talking and is not averse to a heated debate as long as he is sure of his groundHe is quite capable of turning the tables on his opponent with clever word play and a dazzling display of witLikes to meet new people but will keep all but a few at a distance because emotional closeness is disturbing to him He is a born politician, a salesman and organizer. Ambitious and can be quite cunning

The Water Face
It is round and is also known as ‘the moon face’The eyes are said to be watery . Person with such face are accused of being lazy but this is not the caseThey tend to lack energy and often become tired and lethargic They have imagination in abundance . They have rich and rare fantasy worldDue to vivid imagination can give rise to unrealistic expectations, disappointments and possibly hypochondriaThey are dependent on others for reassurance and support. They lack in self confidence. If they find themselves alone for any length of time they will tend to prevaricate, putting off decisions for as long as possible




The art of face reading simply puts what we already do intuitively into a more structured, organised format. Every feature on the face from forehead to chin can reveal vital information about personalities and health. A face can speak a thousand words.
Here I will give you ideas on how you can read someone's character from observing his or her forehead, eyes, cheeks or lips.

FOREHEAD
The shape of the person's forehead will provide useful clues as to how he or she thinks. A large, high forehead indicates an intelligent and academically active mind. A short forehead suggests quick sharp decision-making. A forehead that is vertical in profile implies independent thinking making it easier to generate ideas and work alone. A forehead that slopes backwards suggests a more social and interactive disposition. Such a person is excited to express and hear ideas, therefore being a natural team worker.

EYES
The eyes are said to be the window to the soul. Smaller eyes are a sign of a desire for precision, accuracy and attention to detail as well as being perceptive and able to see through waffle. Larger eyes suggest an open, friendly character that is gentle, kind and accessible. Eyes set close together show great powers of concentration and consistency. Eyes set wide apart are associated with being broad minded and interested in a broader, liberal attitude to life.

CHEEKS
Sunken cheeks indicate a serious and responsible attitude to life risking feeling withdrawn if faced with difficulties. Prominent cheeks suggest emotions come up to the surface quickly with a strong desire to express them. Flushed cheeks indicate a state of excitement and a greater desire to speak out. A pale disposition shows a deeper resolve and a drawing in of emotions.

LIPS
As lips are a feature that moves they attract attention. Being a point of sexual contact we associate lips with sensuality. Thin lips reflect a hard working, responsible character who is prone to overworking. Full lips indicate amore relaxed, pleasure orientated nature knowing how to have fun. A smaller mouth would suggests greater ability to be direct and focus the job in hand without becoming distracted. A wide mouth shows a desire to take in a broader range of experiences in life and live a more varied, less structured life.



1. A hook nose is good with money and business. (Stick to business with this person and ask for financial help.)

2. A turned up nose likes to be of service. (Ask them for help, directions, assistance)

3. A large mouth is talkative and generous. (Use small talk, and about their family. They like to be around people.)

4. A small mouth is brief and tight. (Come to the point quickly and don't keep them waiting.)

5. Eyes that are close together are impatient. (Be on time. Trust them to get things done right.)

6. Eyes that are far apart are tolerant. (Expect tardiness & easy going behaviour. Set deadlines & give reminders)

7. Eyebrows that are high are selective and formal. (Mind your manners. Be on your best behaviour. Use courtesies.)

8. Eyebrows that are set low are informal and easy going. (Warn them about protocol. Let them sell. Ask them to host a party.)

Signs of Deception:
Body Language of Lies:
• Physical expression will be limited and stiff, with few arm and hand movements. Hand, arm and leg movement are toward their own body the liar takes up less space.
• A person who is lying to you will avoid making eye contact.
• Hands touching their face, throat & mouth. Touching or scratching the nose or behind their ear. Not likely to touch his chest/heart with an open hand.
Emotional Gestures & Contradiction
• Timing and duration of emotional gestures and emotions are off a normal pace. The display of emotion is delayed, stays longer it would naturally, then stops suddenly.
• Timing is off between emotions gestures/expressions and words. Example: Someone says "I love it!" when receiving a gift, and then smile after making that statement, rather then at the same time the statement is made.
• Gestures/expressions don’t match the verbal statement, such as frowning when saying “I love you.”
• Expressions are limited to mouth movements when someone is faking emotions (like happy, surprised, sad, awe, )instead of the whole face. For example; when someone smiles naturally their whole face is involved: jaw/cheek movement, eyes and forehead push down, etc.
Interactions and Reactions
• A guilty person gets defensive. An innocent person will often go on the offensive.
• A liar is uncomfortable facing his questioner/accuser and may turn his head or body away.
• A liar might unconsciously place objects (book, coffee cup, etc.) between themselves and you.

HEHE :) Can you think of any more??

childhood... one of the happiest phases during a person's existence!!

As a child-

1. Would fall asleep anywhere with out any worries and still feel protected!

2. If I ate oranges and swallowed the seeds by mistake, I would not drink water...I was scared that it would grow into plants in my stomach ( thanks to my neighbour Shilesh who scared me shit!)

3. My dad is the tallest and strongest man in the whold wide world (My Daddy Strongest!)

4. When I am all grown up, I can wear high heels, have long painted nails and wear duppattas...and it was a big deal for me! ( now I know its no big deal and doesnt even matter!)

5. When I am all grown up my parents will be babies and will not let them do what all they did not let me doo!!

6. I wanted to marry a cricketer or an actor just for the glamshamm :)

7. When I attained puberty, I cried thinking im not a child anymore :P

8. I would rant and rave that I wanted to wear lipstick when we would go for weddings and parties. ...and refuse to eat or close my mouth, so that it does't wear off!! ( Mom had a tough time convincing me to eat!)

9. I would want to have a little brother....on the condition that he never grows up and remains a baby forever...(yeah, rightand he is still a baby for me!!!!)

10. I always wanted to start an orphan age of my own so that none of the kids could lose out on the most happiest phase during his existence...


We all have become so involved in life and so serious that we often forget to enjoy the little pleasures in life that God has given us. The greed, envy, jealousy, revenge why all that when we can live without it! Why do we always want to get into the Pandora's Box and let the evils out while supressing all the good spirits inside?? Hope there is more love, selflessness, charity and peace and this world would not be less than a heaven.



As the Cow Philosophy goes...................

"As you travel life's highway, dont forget to stop and eat the roses... Coz if you dont you will reach your destination but regret for having lost out on so much in life"

The Namesake

Finally yesterday I gotto watch this movie. Had heard a lot about it and after watching Tabu Mira Nair in a Rendezvorous with Koffee with Karan, wanted to check out myself wath the whole movie was all about.

Reached the theatre 10 mins before the scheduled movie of 4:10. Till about 4:05 we were there in the big queue just to buy the tickets and den spotted a free self ticketing counter and rushed n got the tickets. Now is the turn for popcorn and drink, but as usual a big line there too... the counter lady was too slow, rather you could say she was matkofying!! finally was our turn and then we rushed into the hall only to discover the never ending trailers were on. The there had good no. of audience and I was wrong in my thinking, was expecting more indian audience but it was more of the localites and the average age was 40+.

Finally the movie started sometime past 4:30. It was kind of slow, but in the end I liked it. It was a little touchy (guess that explains the Indian Origin). The movie is based on the Ganguli family moving from Calcutta(kolkata) to New York, they embark upon a lifelong balancing act to meld into a new world without forgetting the old. Though parents Ashoke and Ashima long for the family and culture that enveloped them in India, they take great pride in the opportunities their sacrifices have afforded their children. Paradoxically, their son Gogol is torn between finding his own unique identity without losing his heritage. Even Gogol's name represents the family's journey into the unknown.

Overall a nice movie. No masala, no dance gana, no glamour and larger than life scenes! a simple down to earth movie. I would rate it 4.5/5 and would recomend anyone to watch it i.e if you havent(its definitely not possible to watch this kind of movie twice).

Cafe Frappe!!

Miss d gud old Cafe Coffee Day dayss....*Sigh! I wud just go there to drink my Fav Cafe Frappe wit Vanilla Scoop! Ah! heavenly even when I think of d creamy slurpy taste of the cold coffee wit d scoop of vanilla to go wit it....

Coffee powder (Bru or nescafe)

Vanilla & chocolate icecream

Step 1 - Take 1 cup of milk n pour it into d blender along wit sugar as per ur taste n coffee (remember to add less sugar as icecream wil be alse be der n its should be a light coffee) Now use the frappe option in d blender n just whisk it for a second.
