As contradictory as it sounds, I find new beginnings very nostalgic. In a way it makes sense as every beginning in a way ends something old. And for someone who is not good friends with pragmatism…change is always bittersweet.
After 3 months of hectic lifestyle and exhaustion (defined as the inability carry your own body from [...]

Goodbye Leisure.
Goodbye to the “just 15 mins more” excuse before waking up.
Goodbye to sipping my tea while checking my blog stats.
Goodbye to gossiping with mom on gtalk.
Goodbye to breakfasts with Saif while watching “Mad about you” episodes.
Goodbye to five minute hug-fests before he finally left for office.
Goodbye to enjoying my company all by myself.
Goodbye to [...]

Later when I reached an age where chubby was not considered cute anymore [...]

It was a ghost of a town. In fact all there was to it were two filling stations, a small restaurant and a great history. In the morning mist it almost looked surreal to our sleep hungry eyes.
We were on our way to Grand Canyon and we had driven all night. We stopped for [...]

Some things have no names…and that’s their beauty…they refuse to be enchained to any particular definition. So I won’t call it friendship. But I have to write about this person.
I will not call him a friend as friendship is based on a firm feeling of liking and comfort. . There were patches of liking [...]

Reading Vasuki’s blog on “pens” brought back so many memories and I was compelled to write this post.
