A few words of wisdom

Life is too short, try to not make it too complicated.........

Work as if it was your first day,

Forgive as soon as possible,

Love without boundaries,

Laugh without control, 

Never stop smiling.......

Even if you don't know the reason.

Yes, trust me, life can be lived this way too. Try it once and you'll know.

I like being me

Annie, is totally annoyed with a few individuals..............the reason you ask eh?

Let's take this scenario.............you are having a decent, general conversation with a few people and then the talk ends, everyone parts ways but the remnants of the topic at hand still exist somewhere and one person decides to ask you a few more questions (hoping to prolong the talk, probably), eventually your nationality and "oh that's not how it's done in your country?" question pops up. Helllo? did I even mention anything about the country I am from? Or did I ever mention what way what is done? we were just having a normal conversation for Chrissakes. Can't I have even one conversation where I am not being veered towards the nationality direction? But, what's of notice here, the person who got me annoyed on such a beautiful day is himself not a citizen of this country where he lives......now where does that leave him? I never talk to people based on which country or religion they belong to...............heck we are all the same, born geographically in different places, but hello, now we share the same land. So can't we just talk about the common stuff? 

Ugh, so irritated, I can't tell you. I don't know why am I doing this on my blog, this space is for me, not for some idiot's reactions. What irritates me most is, the fact that these people act like they are the 'know it all' kind of people, when the fact is, they no nothing, they are filled of s**t. Like they say, "Aadha sach, jhoot se bhi zyaada khatarnaak hain" translation -> "Half knowledge is more dangerous than lies". Apt for today's episode.

Dear Blog,

Please don't mind that you are the recipient of my reactions today. I had to get it out and I wanted to make it known, and the best way is through you. Please bear with me.

Your faithful blogger,

Annie

And to think, my horoscope for today says:

You need self-discipline today -- and you've got plenty! You may just need to keep your big mouth shut as the folks around you make fools of themselves or you may need to avoid a mighty temptation. 

Yes, I think I did follow that, although it wasn't intentional, nevertheless, I did keep my mouth shut and let the others look foolish! Yup, something to be happy about atleast!

I want to give that person a good shout and a content lecture, God, please don't let me do it! I wish for that person to be gone for the rest of the day! poof

Phonetically speaking

A word that keeps bothering me or rather throwing me into an eternal state of complexity - ESCAPE!

Why.....? you ask? 

Well, here's the explanation.....brace yourselves, coz here it comes....

When I'm driving, or whatever the hell I'm doing, I have a rather weird habit of adding up the  numbers I see or forming words from the words that are in my visibility range. I do the math like it's nobody business and I play a game of word twist in my mind at the speed of lightning......haha alright, at your request no more bragging(aww.....such a spoiler!). 

Anyhoodle....now let's sum up both the points....Driving + weird habit: Do you get it now?

No? yeah well........didn't think so......you need to have brains like mine to interpret my words, which clearly is lacking in your ability. Hey Bhagwaan, here I go taking a detour again!

Okok, before you guys beat me up (hehe, which is highly impossible, coz you can't)......

Driving = looking at car make, model, number/name plate

Weird Habit = adding and twisting words.

So that led to a vehicle which was ahead of me in a single lane road and I had no choice but to follow it(ah, so much despair!). In the meanwhile, being in the weird habit that I have, I started exploring the vehicle and my sight fell on it's model. 
Do you get it atleast now? Huh..........God! Y O Y????

So, I keep driving and  kept thinking what in the world is that car. I know it's a FORD, but I cannot figure out the model....still pondering. Reached home, still pondering.......kept doing my chores, still pondering. Then I forgot. 

Again, next day, started pondering again (can anyone suggest any other word, for pondering? it's getting on my nerves now!) 

This went on for a day or 2 I don't quite remember. Ultimately, it hit me, just like how Newton was hit by the falling apple (*giggles*, yup me is comparing moi to Newton.......grêle newton!)(thanks to Google translator, I would've never known how to say Hail Newton! in French)

That word E-S-C-A-P-E meant ESCAPE and not ES-CAPE (read...ess-kah-pay)..........Whew *wiping forehead*

Man, that was like solving one of the mysteries of the universe!

Well, being the smart being that I am, the same thing happened to me again, but this time, it took me just a few minutes to realise my linguistic skills are not exactly that bad!

If only........

I took a quiz, that tells me what city I should live in. Well, and the answer is......

 

...Paris! Wow, I sure would move to Paris right now! Who wouldn't want to live in the most romantic city in the world? Sigh.....dreams! I think I am a dreamy girl. Visiting Paris is one thing, but actually living there.....woo hoo! {Do you hear some squealing and howling? ahem.  I wonder where is it coming from?!!}

Anyhoodle, it's a Friday and its almost 4 in the p.m. and I can't wait to go home and continue my gardening project.

Btw, has anyone realised that today is Friday the 13th and this is happened 2 times consecutively, once last month, i.e. Feb and once now in March. Weird huh?

Whatev, now back to my dreams, hubs, me and baby in Paree......

Did you know?

..........today was the day Barbie doll made it's debut! Read more here.

Quite a doll that is........."I'm a Barbie girl, in a Barbie world................lalalalala"

yes, I'm out of lala land for now! 

Have a great week y'all!

The one flaw in women

Before I get started on the topic at hand, let me brief you on my time crunches....I had to take a moment today, just so that I can reach out to you people. I've been so immersed in work and at home, that I couldn't get to blog the last few days, so my due apologies. Although, I'm beginning to think that maybe I better stop apologising else, "SORRY" might soon become a word in my vocab, that doesn't really mean what it should've. I believe that when you talk, do it with a passion, so much so that your listener is totally enchanted, I don't know how much of that I actually implement.

FYI - The person who sent me this email, no offense to you, I'm just putting forward something that has been on my mind for a very long time now, and this email from you has made it a lot easier to launch my view. So, I plead you.....if you are reading this, don't take offense, it has nothing to do with you! Whew...now that I got that done, let's get to the point.

Going back to the issue, for starters, I got an email this morning, which made me go hmmmm......

This email is meant to remind us women what we are made of etc etc...BS..........I was like, "o Yeah, tell that to those hooligans calling themselves the 'Moral Police' , aka Shri Ram Sene". This is just irony at its best, I believe. I wish I had that Muthalik guy's email(wonder if he is allowed to use modern technology!!), I would surely forward it to him. My guess, he would hunt down all those people who have been forwarding this email and then think of someway to abuse them....imagine him doing that! ROFL!

Anyhoodle, I'll state my point of view first and then I'll showcase the contents of the email to you.

My first reaction on reading it was WTF? which world are we living in? Did someone hit a rewind button or something? I for one, am not that kind of a woman, I am a woman of today, I know what I want and I don't believe in slaving it out. I believe in equality of labor, love, and life, who says a woman is meant for just the assigned stuff, ofcourse we do that and a lot more too. But, if I'm angry, then the person (well, usually it's my hubs), sees the worst of me, when I'm sad, and happy like wise too.....but I'm not who will smile when I'm clearly so upset. I'm sure a lot of women I know are like me too, ofcourse there are still some girls, who are yet to come out of their cocoon, but in my gen, the word is, woman means power and equality. And I for one, am not willing to let go of it, coz I need to survive in this fast-paced world, just like any one else. So the content ends with the saying, "there is one flaw in women.....and it is they forget their worth". I went ballistic...............WHAT@$&*^^!#@ , haven't I said enough already?

Here, read it for yourself, and please tell me what you think about it. I might be wrong in someways, and I want to hear your opinion. Also, I would like to add, that in this day and age, even guys would agree with equality of men and women, don't you?

The One Flaw In Women 
 
By the time the Lord  made woman, 
He was into his sixth day of working overtime. 
An angel  appeared and said, 
'Why are you spending so much time on this one?' 
And  the Lord answered, 'Have you seen my spec sheet on her? 
She has to be  completely washable, but not plastic, 
have over 200 movable parts, all  replaceable 
and able to run on diet coke and leftovers, 
have a lap that  can hold four children at one time, 
have a kiss that t can cure anything from  a scraped knee to a broken heart-and she will do everything with only two  hands.' 
 
The angel was astounded at the requirements. 
'Only two  hands!? No way! 
And that's just on the standard model? 
That's too much  work for one day. 
Wait until tomorrow to finish.' 
 
'But I won't, '  the Lord protested. 
'I am so close to finishing this creation that is so  close to my own heart. 
She already heals herself when she is sick AND can work 18 hour days.' 
 
The angel moved closer and touched  the woman. 
'But you have made her so soft, Lord.' 
 
'She is soft,' the  Lord agreed, 
' but I have also made her tough. 
You have no  idea what she can endure or accomplish.' 
 
'Will she be able to think? ', asked the angel. 
 
The Lord replied, 
'Not only will  she be able to think, 
she will be able to reason and  negotiate.' 
The angel then noticed something, 
and reaching  out, touched the woman's cheek. 
'Oops, it looks like you have a leak in this  model. 
I told you that you were trying to put too much into this one.' 
 
'That's not a leak,' the Lord corrected, 
' that's a  tear!' 
'What's the tear for?' the angel asked. 
 
The Lord said, 'The  tear is her way of expressing her joy, 
her sorrow, her pain,  her disappointment, her love, 
her loneliness, her grief  and her pride.' 
The angel was impressed. 
'You are a genius, Lord. You  thought of everything! 
Woman is truly amazing.' 
 
And she is! 
Women have strengths that amaze men. 
They bear hardships and they carry  burdens, 
but they hold happiness, love and joy. 
They smile  when they want to scream. 
They sing when they want to cry. 
They cry when  they are happy 
and laugh when they are nervous. 
They  fight for what they believe in. 
They stand up to injustice. 
They don't take 'no' for an answer 
when they  believe there is a better solution. 
They go without so their  family can have. 
They go to the doctor with a frightened  friend. 
They love unconditionally. 
They cry  when their children excel 
and cheer when their friends get  awards. 
They are happy when they hear about a birth or a  wedding. 
Their hearts break when a friend dies. 
They grieve at the loss of a family member, 
yet they are strong when they think there is no strength left. 
They know that a hug and a kiss can heal a broken heart. 
Women come in all shapes, sizes and colors. 
They'll drive, fly, walk, run or  e-mail you 
to show how much they care about you. 
The  heart of a woman is what makes the world keep turning. 
They  bring joy, hope and love. 
They have compassion and ideals. 
They give moral support to their family and friends. 
Women have vital things to say and everything to give 
 
HOWEVER,  IF THERE IS ONE TINY FLAW IN WOMEN, 
 
IT IS THAT THEY FORGET THEIR WORTH.

 

PLEASE pass this  along to your friends and relatives 
to remind them just  how amazing they are.

Writing's Powerful Message

There was once a young man who, in his youth, professed a desire to become a "great" writer.

When asked to define "great" he said "I want to write stuff that the whole world will read, stuff that people will react to on a truly emotional level, stuff that will make them scream, cry, wail, howl in pain, desperation, and anger!"

He now works for Microsoft writing error messages.

To dear.....

Some letters that were due to go out are now on their way.

Dear mystery illness,
I hate that you brought so much pain and misery into my life and I hope you wont be visiting us again. I've been very patient with you, but enough already, now I'll fight back and I wont let you take over my life. I wish for you to be gone with forever and please dont ever return, you do know you are not a very pleasant thing to be around dont you? atleast you should've made yourself clear, you certainly are one playa! So hope to not encounter you ever again.
Truly and not so lovingly,
your bearer from the past

Dear Angelina Jolie's emeralds and Amy Adams' necklace from the Oscars,
I wish you had graced my neck instead, I'm sure I would've made a great addition to your absolute brilliance!
Oodles of ooh's and aah's from,
a gal dreaming of owning you one day...sigh!

Dear AR Rahman and Resul Pookutty,
I am so proud of you both, and AR....2 Oscars in one night, wow that is like a dream come true for so many of the Hollywood stalwarts themselves. Although, I hope the world hears a lot more of your earlier compositions which were far superior than SM.
From,
a fan basking in your achievement

Dear PCC people,
Very good deed and a novel approach to this discrimination. Although I do pray that you people will be safe and happy, I fear for your safety the most.
From,
a wellwisher and someone who's been waiting for some change

Dear Hugh Jackman,
I wish you didn't jump about so much at the Oscar's, the dance routine's were good, but a little overdone, c'mon you were voted as the most sexiest man weren't you? I think you are a looker but ......
From,
one who wants to see less of your dance

Dear Coca-Cola,
I really love your new ads, they make me want to have some all the time. But I don't like the recycling ad, I know bottles do get recycled and all that, but the eco friendly projection didn't quite do it for me. I'll drink to that!
From,
an avid Coke Zero consumer and continues to do so!

Dear Amitabh Bachchan,
I thought you were really the best, considering your uber busy schedule, you still take time to blog every friggin' day..........gosh, until I stumbled upon the truth and that is you are paid to do that! Now now, even I would blog every day, heck I would blog every hour if someone paid me to do so.
From,
a disappointed co-blogger

OK I think that should do!

......and I'm back

...after a really long void....well let's call it the leave of absence shall we?
Hmm, now where do I begin!!! Has it ever happened with any of you that blog, you think of a thousand things to write about when you are not blogging, but when you do sit down to blog, everything evaporates and all you can think of is what were those thoughts again? Eventually you end up writing something totally not thought of or something not even remotely close to what you sooo badly wanted the world to know just a couple of hours back!
Anyhooo.....I was sick for the past couple of months or so, been seeing the doc and been on antibiotics and stuff, yet we couldn't figure out what was going on, finally yesterday I decided enough was enough, I stopped the pills(which I was popping like they were M&M's, and trust me if you know me, you'll know how much I love 'em) and guess what? I am feeling so much better today! As my Mr. says about me, the best medicine is not taking any, I'm side-effected to almost all of them. So good riddance to all those pills and all those weird symptoms and I am ready to welcome my old self back, I've been missing ME! Is that even possible to miss yourself? HMM
Whatevs....but I'm so glad to have a hubs like mine, he bore with me all through this tough time and believe me you, it is no party! Although I do feel bad that I lost about 2 months of precious time with my precious family! I know I can never get it back, but I will try my best to make up for it all!

So finally I would say that after those M'lore attacks/PCC and some other social issues my head was spinning dizzy and seeing so many debates on the television and reading views/opinion of people from various walks of life, one thing I noticed is that, no matter how much noise we create w.r.t. these anti-social elements and injustice to the citizens.......I believe that unless the current administration is completely eliminated, and fresh minds are brought in, there is nothing one can do. We fight, we argue, we hold andolans/morchas, send in innerwear, whatever, doesn't matter, eventually everyone has a life to attend to, and they know it. So, I think, it's just a matter of time when the tables will be turned. But we will keep fighting and hoping for that change. Are any of you with me on this?

Have a good one y'all, and you will be reading a lot more from me henceforth.

This morning I was thinking if those girls that met with the unfortunate in 

Mangalore....will they ever lead a normal life,

will they ever be able to go to a pub yet again! Such a shame, I feel

 sad to be a part of all that,  makes me wonder is 

India really a secular country as we Indian's pledge?

And who the EFF is this Ram Sena, gosh I think Bhagwaan Ram

 would've never returned from the forest, if this were 

to happen. Kaliyug! Ban such people who do this idiocity in the 

name of religion. Shame Shame!

If from.....

1950 - 1959 were called the 50's

1960 - 1969 were called the 60's

1970 - 1979 were called the 70's

1980 - 1989 were called the 80's

1990 - 1999 were called the 90's oh yeah you get the idea (and feel free to add before the 50's too)...now back to the issue......

what would 2000 and beyond be called? the 00's.....?

If  1900(century wise) was called the 1900's(read nineteen hundred's), would 2000(century wise) be called the 2000's (read two thousand's)............somehow it doesn't sound right to me! You have any suggestions? or maybe I'm retarded...again!

Why do I use so many dots(..........) and exclamations (!) and question marks(?) ????!!!!! 

Note to self: stop using so much punctuation.

Hits, misses and everything in between and beyond

I've been wanting to write this post for quite a bit now, I've composed a list of Bollywood movies that were realeased in 2008 and my short review on the ones that I've seen. I've also listed the movie names that are on my must-see list. It's only fair that I do this list to show my undying love for Bollywood. Let's start with the not-upto-the mark category. Oh and mind you these are strictly main stream Bollywood movies

Lousy:

De Taali (ugh, not much to say, it's bad bad bad)

EMI (first I thought it was ok, then it went downhill, Sanjay Dutt is become so boring always the gangster)

God Tussi Great Ho (ewwww)

Hello ( double ewwww)

Kismat Konnection (ugh, boring...ding dong...same story, vidya get a decent wardrobe, Shahid pls stop doing films that dont do justice to your talent, same goes to Vidya too)

Mere Baap Pehle Aap (what was the director even thinking?? Why the F was Akshaye Khanna shouting all through? Genelia I always loved you, but not in this one, sorry babe)

Money Hain to Honey Hain (same ewwwww)

Sarkar Raj ( if someone showed the faces more clearly, instead of zooming inside their noses, maybe it wudve been watchable)

Singh is King (ugh,  just noisy, no brainer, no nothing, not even sure why this movie was made)

Sorry Bhai (WTF)

Yuvvraaj (hello, Subhash Ghai wake up, we are past those kind of movies, they are sooo 80's, different locales, same story)

Passable:

Bachna Ae Haseeno (definitely for hottie Ranbir and the locales, music and ofcourse the babes)

Dostana (tooo oriented which was so not required, but decent take on addressing the gay issue with added bits of humor)

Fashion (different and refreshing, but leaves you so depressed)

Jodha Akbar (ok 1 time is more than enough, splendid outfits, jewelry, acting, screenplay and everything else, but i wont watch it again, not even for junior Roshan)

Krazzy 4 (Nice, zara hatke and humorous and with superb acting from all 4)

My Name is Anthony Gonsalves (new comer, impressed, and very B grade story, but good change)

Oye Lucky Lucky Oye (didn't understand anything, but since I liked Abhay Deol so much, I thought this movie must be in watchable)

Race (yeah, my head was spinning after all the twists and turns)

Thoda pyaar thoda magic (cute, romantic, and childish for a dead brain moment)

Impressed:

Golmaal returns (oh, i was rofl watching this one, total comedy, total entertainment, total bakwaas )

Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na (need i say more!)

Jannat (always....for Emraan Hashmi movies, different from the norm and totally engrossing)

Rab ne Bana Di Jodi (definitely for SRK, potraying the simple guy)

Rock On ( again, the box office and critics have said it all)

Saas Bahu Aur Sensex (different, current situation, and cute)

Slumdog Millionaire (Golden Globes are not enough?)

Ugly Aur Pagli (if you didn't know Mallika can even act apart from undressing, watch this)

Welcome to Sajjanpur (simple, sweet, addressed a lot of social issues without them taking entire focus, surprise ending)

Yet to Watch:

A Wednesday

Aamir

CC2C

Dasvidaniya

Dev D

Dil Kabaddi

Karz

Khalbali

Next......on Bollywood music.

One interesting question

- Joe sworn in as VP of USA at 11:something a.m.

- George's presidency ended at 12 pm on Jan 20th

- Barack is sworn in as Prez at 12:05 p.m. on Jan 20th

so my question is, for those in between 5 minutes from 12:00 to 12:05 was Joe the Prez? So, technically is O the 45th Prez? That would mean the same for all the other previous Prez's too?

If you know the technicalities please enlighten me!

P.S. : Just to avoid search traffic, I've got the first names and some abbr.

Of politics and Obama

Oh, I don't know much on politics, and politicians and how a country runs and the complexities and intricacies involved in the administration of a nation, however what I do know is that the 44th Prez of the U of A is one helluva orator. His inaug speech was simply mind-blowing. I wonder how does he write up so many stirring speeches. Yes, his speech was harsh, real and full of emotion and promises. Promises, that don't sound too dubious for me, but instead they sound doable, maybe because that is the way he put forward his point.

"...and why a man whose father less than sixty years ago might not have been served at a local restaurant can now stand before you to take a most sacred oath."....yes very subtle, yet very true!

Looking forward to the next 4 years and I hope all goes well for him. I pray for him and his family. Oh, and the way Michelle was looking at her husband when he was taking the oath.....ah tch tch...my eyes misted just looking at her! So much for being in love, that she exudes her love for him! And, I loved her outfit, it was so perfect and so classy, couldn't have chosen better.

For the rest of the speech go here.

Wikipedia has already updated his page to current Pres. He was sworn in just a few minutes ago. Technology.....amazing....people behind the technology....even more amazing!

Just for kicks......

......I have got the 'Disclaimer' on my previous post in the smallest font available. :)

Ever wonder why they do that? Who came up with that concept anyways?

Maybe some lawyers and marketing people, for sure, sitting in their ultra cool office, the lawyers thought process goes "we better add the disclaimer else we might fall into trouble", the marketing guys reply, "but, it better be inconspicuous and in fine print, else we might negate the purpose of advertising". 

Hah, such a world ours is, I don't understand it.

I think I'm retarded, talking nonsense. I have to get back to being myself soon, I havent been handling stress very well, over the past couple of weeks, I caved in. I allowed myself to be ruled by something I've always wanted to avoid (by avoid I mean handling the situations in a better way and not running away from it)....the something being turmoil in relations, long distance ones. I am no more giving in to any of this, especially, when it's not really worth it. I need me hubs...he is the only one who can make me feel better! 

See the variation of thoughts in this post........from disclaimers to diagnosis! What more evidence do we need on my mentalness. :) To put it right, I'm not in my element.

Oh, I'm sane alright, not that mental....YET!

Have a great weekend y'all...will cya next week.

Btw, I've heard that AB's blog has inspired many people to start blogging! chalo atleast koi toh faayda hua AB ke blog ka. Now, I think RGV's blog would do the exact opposite....no offense. Either way, I enjoy reading both of them blogs, they are both very 'inspirational'. HEHEHE! I like reading what everyone has to say, it's wonderful what every single person thinks! Sometimes, I get so involved, that I start neglecting my own blog. I'll try my best to keep posting though. Happy Blogging!

P.S.: This post is totally unedited and I didn't even proof read it for spellings, grammar etc. Its raw!

Quote Unquote

Ain't it weird, to post something like "The less you talk, the more you are heard" quote on a blog, which is a medium for expression? 

I wonder what would happen if poiliticians followed that quote right to the d!! Hmm, would we really start hearing them out? Hah, makes you think, "who says they are not being heard right now? otherwise how would they even come to power?" RIGHT? 

Well, one thing that's right is, the leaders will not follow the quote and the people will not stop following them.

Ah, just some thoughts from me!

Ramblings...

My car is now at the repair shop, thus leaving me with the rental that they provided....and it's such a drab. Gosh, am missing my 4 wheeler!

I feel like doing a tag.....maybe sometime I will, just need to think of the right q's and find the time to do that too!

Last night, went back home and made some rotis with egg curry, and I tell you it was awesome, we got tired of eating the Indian restaurant food for so long now, saada ghar ka khaana is always welcome....innit?

Well, this weekend I hope to make some biriyani, still thinking whether mutton or chicken.....any suggestions? I am so excited for this weekend, coz Mr. and I will be home together after soooooo long, I can't even remember, and we plan to do some family activities, maybe take our master to the aquarium or animal museum or the beach or some place where he can have fun.  Waiting patiently for this week to pass by quickly.........tick tock tick tock....

Btw, this image is not that of anything even remotely scary, this is formed by using the letters from "SCOUT BOY", let's see if you can figure it out. We kids used to draw this so oft during our childhood, Y and P do y'all remember? Got reminded of it y'day.

So much in one!

Ah, where do I start blogging today! Maybe, that I really loved what Alicia Keys wore to the AMA's on Sunday, or maybe that I am disappointed Desperate Housewives didn't air, also considering the fact that the season would soon end, or maybe that I am really excited for Thanksgiving this year, or maybe that I am still a little spellbound seeing some pics from the Atlantis opening celebrations, or maybe that Roberto Cavalli's house has been designed to change colors as per his mood , or maybe that the book I am reading nowadays is the cause for my nightmares, now why are they interrupting my so-called short spells of beauty sleep is unreasonable. Well, I'm certainly looking forward to partying all this weekend, shake off some of those nightmarish dreams and horrid thoughts. 

I should start reading more classics, they are certainly more enigmatic and peaceful, or better yet Calvin and Hobbes comics, just humor and antics from a 6 year old boy and his stuffed tiger, so imaginative, yet so discreetly hilarious. That reminds me, I loved Golmaal Returns, I thought it was just nonsensical sans a story/plot yet it renders its dose of comedy which I daresay is slapstick and total mass. It's good to see one of those kinds in a long time, the last I can think of is Partner. It's good to unwind all the stress and issues that we have to deal with, by watching these kind of movies every once in a while. By now you must've guessed my devotion towards Bollywood. Nothing appeals to me more than the tinseltown movies. Love them and proud to be able to comprehend them. I'm not a big fan of Aamir Khan's, but that doesn't mean I don't watch his movies, his Ghajini 6 pack abs are not working for me, I think it's just makeover gone completely wrong, of course his face looks a lot better now that he's lost weight, but abs are a big nono, I still believe SRK did a better job at toning his body. So Mr.Perfectionist and his fans, sorry to point that out, but that's just my point of view. Now, I am eager to watch Surya in his toned avatar. Also, the screenplay of the movie Rock On has been selected to be a part of the Oscar Library archives so that it is available for research to other film-related personnel. Some other movie scripts that are already in are Lagaan, Devdas, Munnabhai M.B.B.S, Kal Ho Na Ho, Chak De India, Sarkar Raj and Gandhi My Father. So did I deliver your dose of news for today?

On that note, I wish all my friends a very very Happy Thanksgiving and Happy Holidays! Please do write in to tell me how you spent them.

Technically I am awake, but realistically I am in a deep slumber! Whew, a strength 4 coffee is also not doing me any good, I am missing my bed. I need a short forty winks, I'm sure it'll do no harm to no one. Damn, I need to work on this issue and I'm unable to concentrate.....maybe I'll get me some of that Green Tea, that will definitely wake me up. That reminds me, M,...what about the Green Tea Cocktail, did you find the recipe for that, I am curious to know how would my taste buds take it. You do remember my addition to it right?

I think I might have a nice fall today sometime and make myself look foolish! Thanks to these new shoes that I've got on....they are so stiff, it's hard to walk. Well, my Mr. was right, he was like do you have to buy those shoes for sure, I said Absolutely! well, then I didn't know I was absolutely sure of tripping! But then you know, I'm getting so much praise for them, it's hard to put them, 4 inched beauties away. You know, I love my shoes!

To be or not to be.

WikiHow had an article on "How to Think Like Leonardo DaVinci". I am a bit confused here.....can you become someone else by changing the way you think?? That would seem interesting to me. Hmm..let's see I want to think like....Warren Buffett maybe? or maybe can I get an amalgamation of various individuals, not necessarily celebs in their fields? See I told you it would be interesting. Anyways, if you are reading this post and would like to share with me who would you want to think like please let me know, I want to know.
