Back Home
Finally.... did some serious duty free shopping!! And don't laugh , I know I am still a teen and way old for all these things...I got a soft toy.. a CAMEL !! Baby camel and daddy camel. By the time mummy camel came it was way too pricy!! and it had worn pink lipstick (yuck). So I thought I'll nurture the toy and be it's mummy. So I am big time name-hunting for both the toy camels. Any brilliant ideas??? Please do drop in... coz I really need them. From quite a young age I was fascinated and excited about naming my toys. Not all of them literally but I used to get so many kinds of dolls. Some were bald headed and some I got as a set with the mirror, hairbrush and even a makeup set. I never liked changing names of dolls who already had a name inscribed inside the cover. The only problem was two or three of them would be similiar cos most of them had names like Sally, Polly, Solly, Sarah. I used to even take care of my doll's hair more than mine. Till date :) Serious naming happened when I got my first pet, my 17th birthday gift, a fish! I named it Bangudai which means blue pearl, I think, in Chinese *giggle*.It was blue in colour and a fighter like me. Such fishes are usually isolated coz they can't live without quarelling physically, I guess. And when it died on Feb 27th, I was too scared to even look at it. Aaaaahh.....I am giving my self some time to still recover from that tragedy. So the end of the story is that I got the camel soft toy cos I was brought up in a desert and felt that it is my duty to get something that represents a desert and hence *tan ta daaa* the camel. So please suggest some cute names.
Since dad is quitting after his 28 years of service we had to cancel off our family visa and resident cards. It felt as though a baby is cutting it's ambilical chord from that of it's mother. But here I am not potraying the freedom the baby gets out of that , it's the detachment it goes through after having survived nine months in the stomach which gave it routes, breathed in life ,circulated the blood and got it prepared for the big battle to venture life with it's first cry. The pain of leaving that warmth, that secured feeling, that 'apartment' !! That's exactly how I felt when the counter guy was cancelling things on his system and he just threw my resident card away. Now if I ever go back it will be as a guest not as a home person *sigh*
The flight was good after all Jet Airways has just started it's fly to Cochin recently. Watched Aaja Nachle and the 'coconut flavoured sweet with a mango tinge' a.k.a. parippu payasam was bad!! While landing we were going through unfavourable weather conditions and alerted us to put on our seat belts. As I shelved up the window board we were flying right through the clouds. Clouds were looking like a cotton candy. Everytime we get into a biiig cloud the whole plane would start shaking. As we neared the land the whole journey from the white cotton candies to the lagoons.. WHATTAA SIGHT !! I started of seeing bald mountains and sandy deserts and landed seeing green cultivation. What a transformation! One cultivation was even shaped like an 'WA'...not a W and an A but something like a V and another V that makes a W and curves down to to make an A. It even had the line between the two lines that form an A. Now that's beautiful nature !
After landing ,our driver took us to Trivandrum straight where I was trying to prepare for my English exam- Novel and communicative English. So much for street lights!! I thought I would crash as soon as I reach home but Brunie's barking woke me up from my dreamy world and there I went off like a non stop radio till twelve or so. With a lot of compulsion and pleading they changed my FM Station to off mode and there I was sleeping like a baby.
Exam was good today except for the Phonetics. I guess I created my own symbols *lol* Next is Sanskrit, on 29th. Abhigyana Shakuntalam and Keralodayam. From the luring tales of the sparkling romance between King Dushyanth and Shakuntala to the manliness of Parasuramam. I have no clue how I am going to finish learning the foursectioned drama and the Mahakavyam of 1oo slokas. So until next post 'Jai Sanskrit!'

Blah Blah!
And finally Jodha Akbar released! I've been waiting for the past million years for this.Amazing songs..especially Jashn Baharan.And don't forget that you got the first glimpse of the song in the audio blog world in Surmitr :)Well a lot of people assumed the song to be rendered by Naresh Iyer including me. But the credit goes to tan-ta-daaa .. Javed Ali.Infact my friend happened to message Naresh complimenting him for the song saying that this should be one of the best in his career so far.And he was only embarrassed to receive a reply which said that he was only happy to pass on the credits to Javed !Apparently there were rumors like the movie is jinxed cos of the late musical release and etc.
Anyways getting back to my world..Radio Jockeys are in fashion nowdays. Akashvani has still not lost it's charm but the cool get-your-ears-here-man attitude RJs are trust me so entertaining.Cos these jockeys aren't the how-are-you-and-what's-for-breakfast types. They are the AAHA..Gotcha types. With sooo many channels it's become pretty hard from me to stop switching the channels.World Space Radio topping the list.Radio is back with a bang! And I fancy working for the radio or rather as a jockey some day :)hoping you all will call then:D And another reason for the success is that these RJs are a listener's speaker and not just an entertainer. They just somehow speak what we want to hear.Aah I guess I am getting it right. Like we have a student's teacher and a teacher's teacher! Not messing it too much.. It's time to get on the move with the ever blabbermouth RJs.
P.S. BTW.. don't download Jodha Akbar songs from the sites.. go grab the original CD from the shop cos you get a bonus CD free .. AAh... so much for me and my big mouth!
