My new mouse

Yay..I got a new mouse which is a breeze to use and I love it!!!

Dont think anyone would write a blog about a mouse. Well, I was so frustrated with my old mouse that I got in ebay for $3.75 that I was desparate for a good mouse.

It feels light on my hand and works like a charm!

Now, my love for computer mice has increased! Its a life saver..!

Jaane tu ya Jaane na

Just saw this movie the other day. Some thoughts...

ok..to sum it up, I like the movie. Mainly how it was treated. Especially like the beginning of the movie when the titles roll, the jazz music and the people in the background. It looked like a painting in movement. nice.....have never seen it in an indian movie..

The friends at the airport is an ok idea. But the girl who was listening to the story was so annying. kept on whining and later she herself started listening to the story.
But it was just a story of two friends, not an epic, don t know why they thought to narrate it to her..:)

They should have picked a different scene to narrate the story, may be a background voice narrating the story instead of the friends..hmmm..that would be more realistic.

But still it wasnt bad.

Then I was waiting for the song 'kabhi kabhi aditi'. Its soo silly that he sings this song for aditi because of a cat. I was expecting a breakup in aditi's life. 'kabhi kabhi aditi koi apna lagta hai..' Yeah Right!!!
The song was misplaced at the wrong scene. The reason it was placed there was to show that he cared so much for aditi. hmm..too good to be true. But might b e true..dont know.

The movie had a total 'bombay' feel to it!! Totallly...you feel like you are with your friends in Bombay. Also liked some characters and scenes in the movie.
Aditi's brother, interesting guy, he talks very less but is a very deep person. After looking at his room, aditi is so surprised to know her bro is soo talented.
I first couldnt figure out they were siblings, thought they were friends.

And later in the movie, 'Jay's girlfriend, some things about her and her life. The first thing I thought about her, she was soo beautiful.
Her parents, they never loved each other, just blamed each other,they acted very natural. Just to make herself happy, she says, they loved each other so much even though they fight.
That was not true. She says, 'Life is not perfect, so we just have to create an illusion that it is...', soooo true..

You cant keep thinking they dont love each other, Instead put it in a different way, that they themselves dont know how much they love because they fight, only when you love, you fight.

Anyway, it was a good movie. Genelia had this arrogant attitude which I didnt like much. As she weas portrayed as a sweet gal in most of her movies. Well she did her role well, acted as a spoiled brat.

Jay(amir khan's nephew) is so cute. Acted well towards the end in emotional scenes. Love the song, 'Tu bole glass aadha khali..main bolun aadha bhara'. and the jazzzzzzzzzzz in the background..brilliant Rehman.

That changed the whole feel of the movie!!

Epcot..An experience in Epcot..

Epcot..A world of its own. I felt like I visited many countries in one day. What does a country comprise of? People? And Places.
We went to Mexico, China, Italy and France. Out of which I Italy is a place that I will never forget.

Out of all my experiences, Italy is one thats still sticked to my mind that I have the after thoughts and I cant forget it.

We went to this Italian Restaurent. I already started feeling that I was in Italy and not in a restaurent in Epcot.

The women had a subtle smile on the face and a lot of beauty in their body language. They came when we needed and didnt come unnecessarily.
All the boys were like brothers to each other. They were holding shoulders while singing a 'Happy Birthday' song in Italian to a customer. And one fella poked someone in the back and ran away.

This is what I noticed. Brotherhood. In today's world, we all have our own laptops, our own cars, that we lose the bond sometimes.

But I saw that the Italians still restored it. And all the women wore frocks. May be they wear in Italy.

We ordered pizzaa with eggplant and artichokes. And didnt expect it would be so delicious. They fried tomatoes and made fresh marinara sauce and they were very light on cheese.
Had a very healthy pizzaa.

Then I realized that pizzaa 'IS' healthy. Unlike the pizzas that you get in Pizzaahut full of cheese. I guess Pizzaa became unhealthy after coming to the U.S
The original pizzaa was meant to be healthy.

Me and Body Wash!!!!

Body Wash can be so casual like a toothpaste for some people. But for me, its something I rejuvenate with everyday. I imagine myself in that location for each type of bodywash.

A Girl's Life

Born as a girl feels lucky sometimes considering how much variety we have in our life.
A girl can makeover her hair, her lips, her face. Whatever she wants. And its fun too!
Life is monotonous without variety. And a girl is all about variety.

Today when I was moving my apartment stuff, I was collecting all my lotions and body washes and lip sticks and all. I was soooo happy to see all that. I earned so much to invest in these things..:) half of my salary goes here.

Me and Marta..:)



Whats this relation between me and a train? Why am I so excited about it?
A train is just something that takes you from one place to another. But if a train is giving you peace of mind, then its more than anything. If its so close to your work that you can walk and get in. Its like a car with a driver that is sent to you to pick up from work.:) Where you dont have to worry about parking or traffic.

Ever wonder that someone would write a blog about Marta Train? This is one admirer of trains who had to travel in Train in recent times and ever since I started travelling, I always wanted to blog. So many thoughts cross my mind.

My love for trains came from India. In India, our trains are not only used as means of transport. But to talk. Here people are like sitting in a library. They dont talk much.
And they dont talk to the next person either, every person is hesitant to break the ice. They feel that they are not concerned to know about other's life. And its something called, 'privacy'.

haha..well I think its just humanity. But, after coming to U.S. Even I started thinking this way. When someone does something different than their culture,people look at you weirdly.
And you feel weird too.

Even though I want to start talking, I am hesitant too. In India, I was not, as everyone does it.

I think travelling in public transportation is much interesting than a car where you are alone with you and your music. Honkig at the car infront of you. Taking food in drive thru's. This whole concept of drive thru's is for people who dont want to get off the car, love their car so much.

Life...you taught me a lot!


Life, the 4 letter word which is more than just 4 letters.

Hey Life, you taught me a lot. There were heart melting moments and heart breaking moments. There were moments of Awe and there were moments of dullness.

Here I stand, and can proudly say that I am a successful woman walking on street side near a coffee shop. Dont know why I feel successful when I am walking on a busy street with other people along with me with a coffee cup.

It was the same coffee, same street but a different girl couple of years ago.
I am the matured form of me today.

Heartbreaks are not as bad as the first time. You told me how to recover. And get back to the grind.
Job layoffs are also not bad as the first time.

You taught me that there is a second time for everything where you can learn your lesson. I was in class 101 for every chapter of life. But I was soon a senior in the class as time passed by.

There is no one who is left immature in life. Even a baby learns how to walk on its own. And a heart knows how to heal with time.

Life, give me the problem and I will resolve it for you. Unless things that are not in my hands, I am able to handle most things with courage today.

A good recipe of life needs 4 ingredients: Good friends,ability to forget, time and parents who love you unconditionally.
