"NO"

When the hell am I gonna learn to say "NO" ....

Saying "NO" is a big deal ................it is when it involves people who can have great influence !!

Exhibition-2009

Yet another trip to Annual Fair,Island grounds, Chennai. 28 Feb sat, after reciprocating to many calls made by my lovely darling sisters Geethi, Sonu, Ammu and Appu (oh, he was prompted to say "ba") I reached Mylapore just on time to catch up with the trip. 

Can we beat the heat, Oh no.. 'was hot evening. We all strolled towards the stalls, and headed towards Amaranth Yathra replica. (30 Rs. Per ticket). I must say all kids were thrilled to take a walk through the care full moulded thermals. At the corner of every supposedly hair-pin bend, there were a statue of deities, before which we all took turns and gracefully posed.

Then we went in Dora-Bujji's castle which was huge let down, our much anticipated trip inside the castle was for just the sadly lighted den with powdered thermal which kids picked up and tossed everywhere.

Me, saranya forcefully took Geethi inside the Ghost rider, which again was so drastically designed and didn't offer any element of surprise or thrill. We just came across small devils dressed up and wearing masks (which I later learnt from paper is that little devils are actually kids below14 working for daily wage of 30 or so. My heart cried for those kids the image published in the paper was even more heart moving. It stated kids almost had to work non-stop wearing those heavy costumes and masks, worst of all the heat they had to bear inside those stalls and grab a bite if only they get a chance. Wonder why such gruel some incidents happen to those kids where in they should be out playing and acting their age).

And the highlight of the trip next to me and saranya riding on I forgot the name of the ride, more similar to pirate ship or the Columbus is our own star hero APPU's cute little performance.

Just as we were walking towards the exit, the stage was orchestrated and they were performing some medley. I was carrying Appu, he swiftly got down listening to the music and got on dancing, I cursed my phone and camera batteries as both were dead at the moment left me disgusted at not capturing Appu's moves. Once the song got over we started walking towards the car, after say 3-4 mins they started music, appu didn't wanting to dance where he was  walked all the way back towards the stage and started dancing again. I had to run behind him to catch hold, apparently the song was not up to his tastes and he though better of dancing and started heading to the car....and thus our pretty trip ended..that was fun!!!!!

South Korean Movies

There I go, investing my non-working hours in wathcing South Korean Movies.

To name few,

100 days with Mr. Arrogant,

Daisy

Seducing Mr.Perfect

Millionaire's first Love

Art of Seduction

and few more......

My heart was so lightened watching these cute movies. I must admit I never would have believed if I heard that the S.Korean movie industry makes such nice and light hearted movies if I hadn't seen them. I am always a comedy lover, if it's romantic comedies then it's double treat. 

I was at my wits end and I even SMS'ed my uncle that he must make remake of any of these movies.

I liked Korean movies for it's 'elan. Fantastic camera works, extraordinary music and simple plot, we can relate so much of it to our everyday lives. ah, I must give a wow to leading actresses facial expressions, who could believe that they emote so much with their face, given consideration of their small eye structures. I was taken by surprise with the charm and charisma of hero's. I never thought they could be so macho and yet so charismatic.

Folks, if you love to experiment and of course wanting to know cross cultures, go ahead and get friendly with your YouTube. It saves our trouble of not understanding the language. Many dear contributors have uploaded with English subtitles. 

Life's easy, isn't it???

Now I can hear ..Look who's talking!!! 

Just Catching Up!!!!

and that is so tiresome..Just the idea of catching up with blogging tires me. Why? It's a reminder of how disorganised I can be, is a reminder of how I let procrastination take better of me, it's a reminder of my failed attempt at my creativeside, it's a biggest reminder of what I call my own let-downs. 

On and Off vowing to catch up with doing what I'd love to do most ie. blogging. Alas, it's my space and  I can be whatever I can be, without pretense, ofcourse I have a public listing for this blog and I should be atleast honest with myself as what I portray myself as here. 

I have always wished to call spade-a- spade..but have I dared..you can bet, not at all times.

Lots of happy moments and few unbearable moments formed my Feb and march till now. 

I somehow still fighting to come in terms with the demise of my maternal grandmother. 

The other day I went up to my terrace as I wanted to lose myself in the cool breeze that once in blue moon chennai weather offers..mean time, caught up with cloud watching..as a kid, me and my cousin would do cloud watching very often at Ambathurai Railway Station...I got nostalgic and was wondering how it would feel to be a bird, fly high..as I want to write carefree, my mind thinks otherwise as the harsh reality of "every living being must be cautious always in order to survive" strikes me. 

Anyways, Just wanted to put in my random thoughts over here and here again I promise myself to be a regular blogger and jot my thoughts down....but lets find out who wins.....
