Ambitous me ;)

When I was young there were a lot of things that i wanted to become... like in the 7th-8th standard i wanted to become a journalist (don ask me why..) and i always had this image of myself wearing a long kurta and a shoulder bag, wearing spectacles and holding a notepad and a pen - thanks to the movies;)... in the 9th-10th standards i wanted to become a newsreader(i think this is one thing that all girls aspire to become)..gone were the dreams of a journalist but atleast i was connected to the media world ;)!! i actually wanted to become a newsreader 'coz i loved that bearded guy (i later found out his name was Prannoy Roy) and i wanted to read the news alongside him... :)... i gave up on science(or rather science gave up on me) after my tenth standard and i waltzed into the world of accounts, commerce etc and then i wanted to become a CA(chartered accountant)... thanks to my dad who also was one...!!! and then i chose to do B.Com after my higher secondary. but my ambition to becom...

What Life's all about...!!!!

This bit is from one of the books in the "Chicken Soup" series..!!! i liked it a lot and find it very meaningful..!! :-) Life isn’t about keeping score. It isn’t about how many people call you or who you’ve dated, are dating or haven’t dated at all. It isn’t about whom you’ve kissed, what sport you play or which guy or gal likes you. It’s not about your shoes, or your hair or the color of your skin or where you live or go to school. Infact it’s not about grades, money, clothes or colleges that accept you or not. Life isn’t about if you have lots of friends or if you are alone and it’s not about how accepted or unaccepted you are. Life just isn’t about that. But life is about whom you love and who you hurt. It’s about how you feel about yourself. It’s about trust, happiness and compassion. It’s about sticking up for your friends and replacing inner hate with love. Life is about avoiding jealousy, overcoming ignorance and building confidence. It’s about what you say and what y...

Walk down memory lane!!!

The fun things we do… The laughter we share…. Are a few things that show… How much we care..!!! One spectacular event… 120 minds… 6 forums… 11 mind blowing games… 10 colleges…one overall champion… 100 participants… The maddening flow of thoughts… The rush of adrenaline…The high of winning… PRAGATI – one of the most memorable experiences of my MBA!!!! Hosting it was by no means an easy task!!! But the amount of fun that we had doing even the most mundane job was incomparable to anything..!! Looking back, the one word that pops into mind when I think of Pragati is “FUN”… total masti..!! Endless meetings almost every day… Middle of the night presentations of the games and schedules in Skh… Frantic calls to colleges, estate office, godown etc… Frenetic activity in the labs till around 2 in the morning… Mess up’s over decorations of the entire building… all these and more… Pragati was a mind-blowing experience in more than one way… it evoked a sense of pride in the entire batch.. it was lik...

there are actually a lot of things that i wanted to write in my last post..!!! :-/ somehow somewhere i think i lost the track and ended up putting into words something that doesn't feel right!!! atleast to me... i feel i could have worded it better..!!! hmm... !!! well... er... u-huh..!! whew!!!

My Amma :-)

I have been wanting to write about this for a long time now… somehow till now never got the right words… I hope I get them now..!!! There is this well-known saying that, “God Created Mothers Because He Knew He Could Not Be Everywhere” So true na… I had never given much thought to the relationship I shared with my mother. Being daddy’s little girl and all that, amma always used to be this woman who would make me sit and study, make me clean my dirty room, make me eat all those yucky veggies, give me stern warnings for spending too much time on the phone, not let me watch TV especially when there is an interesting movie, tell me what to do, how to do, what dress to wear for special occasions, how to tie my hair, everything,,, every single thing about me she had an opinion regarding it..!!! Well not that appa didn’t offer his opinion on the things that I did, but somehow amma’s interference (u can’t actually term it that.. I hope u understand what I mean) was a lil’ bugging!!! Oh yes!! I ...

Here we go....!!!

Bonjour ppl… Quite a lot of things that I want to say… rather write but dunno where to start… how to start…lolz…!!! Wats it called??? Yeah.. Writer’s block..!! Even before I have started writing I have been tagged by “Writer’s Block” (Amazing!! :-/) Even in the last class of International Business handled by one of my favorite lecturers, I clammed up during my presentation… :-s… in this case I guess you can term it something else(I dunno the exact term!!) this has never happened to me and I have no clue why it happened … and that too to a chatterbox like me..!!! Jeez!! The best part was it was more or less a combined class for both the batches of my classmates and all my friends were there…the ones I hang out with in college!!. :-s… I mean I had the words in my mind.. in front of me in a piece of paper for reference…and my partner was prompting me from the side and still I was tongue-tied…!!!Lolz..!! And to top it all off, I had the professor consoling me saying that it usually happens...

This is ME :-)
