My Life In Bullets (Part II)

  • Masters results are out. (Well they were out a month ago, just didn't blog about them, god knows why). Scored very well. For once, I was happy about my results. I remebered last year, the dissatisfaction that followed after the results. I also remember talking about it to my then-boyfriend (gosh, can I really label him that?), telling him about my insecurities, doubts, frustrations. Wonder if he remembers the conversation, wonder if it meant anything to him.
  • Since we are on this topic, here is a shocker: My mind has been wandering to those times lately. And frankly, I do miss him still. Well, I miss the friendship most of all, or whatever it was that you want to call it. Wonder what made me take those decisions that night. Wonder what made me choose the 'no contact' policy...
  • Well anyway, next update: In the past few days I actually missed studying!!! It's been around 3 months since I opened a book and studied. So yesterday I cleaned the clutter on my table and started reading through acads stuff! And it felt good!

Well alright, time's up

So I'm back after a hiatus of 3 days.

There have been so many things I have been wanting to blog, that I have no clue where to start. So here is a bulleted update of what is happening in my life in no particular order:

  • I have gained weight. Now wait a second, hear me out. Let me be more precise, I gained 3 kilograms. For many that is close to nothing, it may perhaps be negligible. But for me, well, who knew 3 kilograms was all I needed to look better. The number of complements I receive after the weigh gain have been on the rise. But I also hear this from all the aunties and grandmas- that this is enough. "Yashada, put a full stop to it now, don't you gain more weight. This is perfect, not an inch more, not an inch less." So basically, for the first time in my life, I have to pay attention to what I eat and how much I eat. And I never knew it was so difficult!! Man, you need a strong will to say no to that yummy slice of pizza! Not that I am on a strict diet or anything, and I don't intend to either. But I am merely avoiding junk food as much as I can and trying to eat healthy. But this has happened only for the past week or so, mind you.
  • Visited Bangalore a couple of weeks ago. Its a fairly nice city. Pleasant weather, simple people, not as fussy as Mumbaikars. Why I went there and what I learnt there will be a separate post in itself, or better yet, a series of posts! :)
  • I am hating what Ganpati today has turned into. It's no longer a festival I look forward to. The noise, the pollution and the vulgarity make me want to either slap all those people or turn my back to them and walk away. I want to do the former, but do the latter.

This blog will remain closed for a while

Don't know when I'll resume blogging again, it could be a week from now, or it could be a year from now. But I'll definitely be back, that's for sure. I could never let go of blogging altogether.

I am doing this not because I'm too busy, or depressed, or its not that I don't have access to the internet; just felt like spending time by myself, that's all.

Bra-less on Gtalk

Gtalk can create memorable moments sometimes, as I found out through a close friend.

When my freind logged on to his gtalk and read my tagline, he almost jumped out of his seat. You see, you can't read entire taglines on gtalk if your gtalk window is not too broad. You only see a few words below the friend's name and you must move your cursor to that part of the gtalk window after which the window expands and allows you to read the whole thing.

So my friend read my tagline as "Lo and Behold! No Bra" instead of "Lo and Behold! No braces!"
