100 Not out!

Can you believe I’ve made it to a hundred posts!?? This little tentative step that I started out late in September of 2007 has now grown into a fairly big obsession for me. I’ve loved the journey so far…it is so cathartic sometimes to just pour your heart out when words fail you conversationally.

To do or not to do

After much dilly dallying I have now decided to apply for B schools this year. My options are incredibly limited as I am looking out for a one year programme (as if one year isnt bad enough). I am still not able to articulate the reasons for my wanting to do an MBA…I know that [...]

Saint Gobain moment

KT and I are the perfect brand ambassadors now for Saint Gobain.
 Rewind to the early part of 2005, I was in the office and walked straight into the glass doors. You know those cartoons where someone takes a fall and they have these little birds flying around their heads….I could actually understand that particular depiction [...]

Meltdown?

First this then this.
 From the looks of it, this is not going to be just another recession..it is going to be a rather huge melt down..sounds scary. And the decoupling theory looks like a fine joke. I wonder what the implications for me are…next year the bonuses will take a huge beating, people might just [...]

Matilda

Have no idea why but was suddenly reminded about a poem that I had read while at school…I didnt even remember the poet’s name..just the first two lines, then did a google search and was really thrilled to find it!

10 things I miss (This is turning out to be tough..I guess I’m having a better life now!)

Being around my mom all the time..

My grandmom being this active energetic woman..her weak [...]

Buddies..

MM asked a question on her blog, whether we still have a best friend, like the kinds we had in school…this kind of opened a floodgate of emotions and feelings in me and it came close on the heels of KT asking me why I didnt still cultivate and nurture friendships…
I had a ” best [...]

Tagged!!

Been tagged..my first one by Silvara. This is a good one for it calls upon me to put down what I’d have said to the person that I was at the beginning of 2007..with the benefit of hindsight!!
Dear Me from 2007
Spending the new year all alone in your apartment, watching the runs and re [...]

Margazhi, Mylapore and memories

Having in the heart of Mylapore as a child, all the hullabaloo in the papers about the “magic of mylapore”, the music festival attempting to create a hype and recreate that magic catapulted me into that time when there was no hype, no need for all the publications to draw the attention to the so [...]
