Moments...

Yes I realize this....just now received a mailer stating the demise of one of our classmates...It was the same guy whose handwriting analysis I had done...and we had a nice chat together about work and class and study....but it is so...may his soul rest in peace! For some time now, actually its been many times before, but recently its been more in my thoughts about what happens when a person dies and leaves behind the blogs, mails and all Internet identity...I was just wondering that I write a blog and I die and then will people following it wonder what happened why are write ups not coming...Even though the fact is that no one follows my blog but I still wondered...After my demise maybe someone accidentally drops by and checks the blog and then wants to drop again and then again but sees no new posts so do they wonder - the author is dead or has abandoned? I have come across some of the blogs with posts dated years ago but I never went back to them so I don't know if the blog is ...

I picked this book, because on its cover it had this pretty lady with a young lad and the title Freedom's land attracted me. It is a great book. I enjoyed every bit of it....in fact I read it in flat 8 hours. Didn't even budge from my seat. As soon as I read a few pages, I knew it was a winner and then cooked and ate an enormous meal and sat perched with the book. She write amazingly, uses simple English and short sentences but that keeps the pace of the story intact. Story is about a scheme run by the Australian Government to provide land to all ex servicemen in Australia and hordes of people from England come for it. The brochures talk about dream homes and farms and cows and ....but they all are in for a surprise. How the families who reach there put up with the failure of the government and try their best with the help of locals to start their dream life - even if it means building their own dreams. The characters are all real ones, someone we might know from our past or ne...

1. She had a great smile . 2. I wish my friend is by my side, always. 3. I know this: life is not a fairy tale but I still love to dream fairy tale endings :). 4.

I love The Stupendous Man!! Did you guess it? Well yes, its the famous quotes of Calvin :) Reality continues to ruin my life. A little rudeness and disrespect can elevate a meaningless interaction to a battle of wills and add drama to an otherwise dull day. Weekends don't count unless you spend them doing something completely pointless. Life's disappointments are harder to take when you don't know any swear words. Its no use! Everybody gets good enemies except me. What's the point of wearing your favorite rocketship underpants if nobody ever asks to see 'em? As a math atheist, I should be excused from this. This one's tricky. You have to use imaginary numbers, like eleventeen ... I'm learning real skills that I can apply throughout the rest of my life ... Procrastinating and rationalizing. I have a hammer! I can put things together! I can knock things apart! I can alter my environment at will and make an incredible din all the while! Ah, it's great to b...

I love Dirk Bogarde's works and this being his first fiction that I have read. The story is the usual - a divorcee coming to terms with his brother's death, his playing the dad figure to his son, his infatuation, and his love interest and all set out in French Summer. But how Dirk Bogarde manages to throw life in the cliche tale is an art that he has pioneered. The sons character, 9 year old boy, really stands out and one stands to live with the boy coming to terms with his parents divorce and child abuse and French. Although I felt he overdid with the erotic encounters and I simply skimmed through those sections and the ending sans those its a winner. Liked it.

1. I've come to realize that my last kiss... didn't happen in real - was in dream 2. I am listening to... my keyboard 3. I talk... when I can and I can do that quite often and for long times....in short I talk a lot :) 4. I love... guess talking 5. My best friend/s... are my bestest buddies :) 6. My first real kiss... Hmm Hmm 7. Love is... Living Our Vision Everyday 8. Marriage is... eternal bond between Lovers 9. Somewhere, someone is thinking... about me :) makes u feel so much better! 10. I'll always... try to happy and smiling 11. The last time I really cried was because... I felt sad :( 12. My cell phone... is a necessary evil 13. When I wake up in the morning... I look at the watch, if alarm is ringing I curse and turn it off, then stretch myself and depending on whats next to be done I start my day or doze off again after snoozing my alarm :) 14. Before I go to bed... I set the alarm :) 15. Right now I am thinking about... wow how much I could write, I can write as m...

1. All children alarm their parents, if only because you are forever expecting them not to, i.e, positive thinking helps :) . 2. Show me a good loser and I will show you a mirror :) . 3. Nothing is like eating an entire box of chocolate liqueurs at one time. 4. Too bad that all the people who know how to run the country are busy proving that they are good at what they do and in fact do nothing . 5. I have yet to hear a man ask for advice on how to combine map and facts . 6. It is impossible to think of any good meal, no matter how plain or elegant, without salt or sugar in it. 7. And as for the weekend, tonight I'm looking forward to finish my last book due this week , tomorrow my plans include working :( so no plans and Sunday, I want to return the due books to the library and borrow some more for the week ahead !

I sat yawned, sighed, and moaned. Enough was enough and irritated my friend inquired: 'Whats wrong?' "I haven't finished thinking about my TT, its already Thursday!" 'Are you in your senses? Whats to think in Table Tennis, you just need to play the match.' "Yup I had my theme! and here's it..." TT = Thursday Thirteen and maybe Table Tennis PIN = Personal Identification Number and also in the coded language meant Parent Is Near FAQ = I always thought it was Freaking Annoying Questions sorry I meant Frequently Asked Questions but it means First Article Qualification NLP = Neuro-Linguistic Programming and the geeks called it Network-Layer Packet USA = Isn't it obvious it meant States nopes wrong again its Unix System Admin TLC = Just didnt mean Tender Loving and Caring but Total Lymphocyte Count TOC = The simple Table of Contents also meant Total Ownership Cost CBT = is Computer Based Tutorial but also means Criminal Breach of Trust WBT = fo...

Breezy, sweet, witty, romantic, adorable, fun, and heart breaks packed into some 500 pages. The dialogues are too good after a long time I have read something with sharp and witty exchanges. (Last I read was in of course Love Story :)) Once you begin, you hardly notice how time flies and you are engulfed into the story of Hope, Adam, Julie, Logan....all likable and easy to relate characters. They have all been through with what we have been through or going through. The story revolves around Hope and how she, one of the few survivors of a plane crash, copes with her post traumatic stress. And along with her fight for surviving and getting back to 'Normal' the others join in - her best friends and house mates Adam and Julie, her shrink Tim, her neighbor Logan and others...each coming victorious at the end. Hope a drifter of jobs who cant hold to a single job and has switched 16 times. She has been fired or made herself fired from all. Adam who is good at his job or so what it se...

This book by Joanna Trollepe is part of Quick Reads. Its a 95 paged book and pretty good. I borrowed this book from the library and finished it within 45 minutes while reaching home :). Its a pretty quick read. If you feel wretched, miserable, and lack self esteem everyone else will also make you feel the same. A mother of two teenage kids was bullied by her husband, kids, her boss, and even by the friend of her teenage son. Her only offense being that she cant read and write. A walk out by her friend gets her realize she needs to take things in her hand. And she does it all by herself with the help of strangest friends as her support. Its never too late to change.

Its been compared to Diary of Annie Frank....but sorry to say so far whatever I have read it has no where touched upon the great book. It feels like its more of rantings and rantings...She is taking out personal grudges rather than giving us some true landscapes of memory. :( I tried to go through it but finally gave up after odd 50 pages couldn't bear her grudges towards her parents, friends, living beings in general.

Ugh...I have no idea heard only mp3 till now...is it coz I dont own a TV so :( neither did any of my schools I shifted to taught me abt them :( 8. What song are you listening to now ? Well none me listening to breeze blowing the wind chimes :) I love their sounds! 9. Did you kiss anybody in the past 2 days ? No one :( 10. Have you ever k...

I subscribed to the quotes related to the book The Secret....and here they are for sharing... Once you make a decision, the universe conspires to make it happen. - Ralph Waldo Emerson Don't limit yourself. Many people limit themselves to what they think they can do. You can go as far as you mind lets you. What you believe, you can achieve. -Mary Kay Ash "I can't do it" never yet accomplished anything; "I will try" has performed wonders. -George P. Burnham Create a definite plan for carrying out your desire and begin at once, whether you are ready or not, to put this plan into action. -Napoleon Hill Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you've imagined. - Henry David Thoreau You say I started out with practically nothing, but that isn't correct. We all start with all there is. It's how we use it that makes things possible. - Henry Ford You can do it if you believe you can. - Napoleon Hill Except and expect positive things a...

You Should Have Straight Hair You are serious, professional, and sleek. You tend to be a bit of a perfectionist. You don't leave any detail unnoticed, and you don't like it if a single hair is out of place. You're extremely ambitious, and you'll work very hard to get what you want. You're not afraid of burning the candle at both ends. You always try to present yourself in the best light possible. You want to make a great impression on everyone you meet.
