Holidays!!

I had almost 10 day holidays for this pongal! And i had planned lot of work during this holidays, but as usual didnt touch a thing. Now as the holidays are drawing to a close i am feeling sooooo guilty. This is always the same! i mean the guilt factor! so the end result is i neither enjoy the holidays nor i do any work! i should atleast do what my friend does. She never carries home work (as she has two children to care for!) and she enjoys her holidays without any guilt. But without a husband or child to care for i cannot quote the same reason for not taking any work. i mean if i dont have any work, i would feel really uncomfortable. So i love taking home work but love more not doing them. Then feeling guilty about it! Is this catholic feeling! They were the ones who used to feel bad for enjoying life and apologise for it in every confessions. Or is this puritan feeling! hope some one can clariyfy!

Anyway with just one more day remaining, i decided to stop feeling guilty and enjoy my hols. What enjoyment! in my guilt trip i removed all my clothes from my cupboard and that is waiting for me to arrange it. So what enjoying one more day! chalo atleast one job would be done!! Great achievement indeed! AFter this holiday, no more hols! every saturday we are going to work! it is going to be one hectic semester!! whew!! ia m getting tired just thinking about it!

A Moment to Remember

Yesterday i saw a beautiful korean movie called 'A moment to remember'. it was a love story where the leads meet and fall in love and get married. As they start enjoying their life, the girl is diagnosed with early Alzheimer's. God it was so horrible to see the girl losing her memories and how both of them suffer because of it. though the story cannot have happy ending, it still ended with both of them together in the last scene. Some scenes did bring tears in my eyes!! Very touching story indeed! and told in a simple narrative, nothing OTT or dramatic! why do we tend to do everything loud i dont know! we should learn a lot from korean movies! may be we'll get one version in later years! nowadays remaking korean movies is in fashion!

As the day wound by, sunanda pushkar's death stunned me. After yesterday's washing of their dirty laundry in social networking world, twitter,her sudden death (suspected suicide) shocked me! What a waste of life! i have seen her as a vibrant personality! after all the protests in twitter, she suddenly dies! One day she is there n next day she is not! How temporary human life is!! It is really sad! May her soul rest in peace which she couldn't find it here!!

2014 Resolution!!

New Year Resolutions are meant to be broken!! My new year resolution this year is to start writign which i have been wanting to do for ages! So here i have started almost 20 days after the new year. so this may not be actually a new year resolution for i dont wnt it to be broken!!

Writing! bane of everyone's life! But to see our writing in print! what an high it gives! i always wanted to write novels. i loved reading novels. But when my friend's husband suggested why dont you write one, i backed out. But i remember writing stories or atleast starting stories in my childhood. i used to tell scary stories to my younger brothers n sisters (own n borrowed!). my sister even today remembers a serial killer's story which i narrated it dramatically. i remember telling the story to my family at the same time to my class mates. Both groups enjoyed it. But again writing them! i seemed to have a block now!!

This is a sincere attempt to remove the block so that i can write not just fiction but also non fiction n who knows in future a paper too!!

So my first post started! hoping to write one post every day!!
