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.

Did you know?

that my fave Katy Perry sported a Manish Arora creation for the MTV Europe Music Awards this year?

Here is the link to it

and Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi music is alright....maybe it's the kind of music that grows on you.....I'm so excited about this one....Aditya Chopra and SRK together after DDLJ and SRK in a different look.

My take on politics!

O yeah, everyone had their share to blog on Barack Obama, now it's my turn. As if there is anything else left to say! Nevertheless...

Congratulations to him and his family and to everyone who will benefit with his Presidency. 

The Obama's make a picture perfect family, a beautiful and poised wife, lovely children and he himself is soo perfect, atleast what we see of him....and that mind of his is soo sexy! His speeches are flawless and his energy is radiating and fresh. His promises are a dream and we all hope that they don't disappear as soon as we wake up from this celebration. I hope he lives upto his promise of CHANGE! All of us are ready to embrace his ideas and changes, we need a fresh start to old issues. We need an entrepreneur, we need someone dynamic and magnetic. Oh did I mention he's got a mind that would make women or even men weak in their knees! 

And this is a reason enough for me to party this weekend.....! C'mon me deserves it!

So, wishing "The O" good luck and I was wondering whether it was possible if he took over the office a bit earlier??? Why wait for good things to begin!! Let the work begin! Mazel Tov baby!

An update!

I know, it's been a long hiatus from blogging, but there really was so much going on, it's crazy. My mom has left for home early this week, my master fell sick and Mr. and I are taking turns attending to him and taking care of him while doing some justice to our jobs too. I haven't even had the time to miss my mom, blame it on taking care of the pediatric visits and administering medicines to the little one. It is at times like this is when I realise, is it really necessary that both parents should be working, I mean your child's health is the top priority, everything else comes in later. It's a tough time, but I know happy times are just around the corner, it's just a matter of time and patience and yes, we are taking out time and patience is one of the side effects of having a child(o yes, trust me tolerance levels are certainly high post baby).

So for the All Souls Day, my master was dressed up as Darth Vader and boy did he look cute! We went trick or treating and then got back in time to give away our share of treats to the little devils. They sure did scare the hell out of our master, he was soo frightened by all their costumes, he was hugging grandma all through and refusing to look at mama give away treats to them trick or treaters. I just wish I had the opportunity to carve pumpkins, I would've carved diyas and lighted them up with candles, coz Diwali was nearby. Globalization....even festivals!

This morning driving across the bridge, it was so pretty, very foggy and very sunny and there were some black objects floating on the river. And on a closer look, I believe they were ducks with their heads down, how do I know that? Well a few of them curious ones,  had their heads up, looking at the world above. I wanted to take a picture, but to capture that I would've needed a real camera, not my cell phone camera. 

It's been a really long and exhausting week and I hope to get some respite this weekend, looking forward to it. Maybe read some comics(Calvin and Hobbes), cook and watch movies and maybe hit the beach if the weather co-operates!

Profitez de votre weekend! (Enjoy your weekend!)

Adios!

Japanese Mall Fountain

This is one interesting piece that was forwarded to me, and I was so impressed I had to put it up on the blog. My fave is the fishes falling. Some awesome Pyrotechnics skill the Japanese and Chinese have.

BOOOO....it's Halloween!

Happy Halloween to all and TGIF to me!

It's been a long and busy week, but I love being busy! I am looking forward to the weekend though. Tonight I will be taking my master for trick or treating, in his costume(the details of which I will reveal next week so as not to ruin the surprise for some). I am so excited for tonight, coz he has now got a little understanding of things around him and am sure he'll enjoy this little outing. Last year he was dressed up as a little Devil in red. I've bought some Halloween candy for the little ghosts and goblins visiting us. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to carve a pumpkin although I really wanted to. 

So happy trick or treating everyone, be safe and have a fab weekend!

I don't understand why....

....in social networking sites work related persons are added as friends and in professional networking sites why relatives and personally related friends are added!!! Beats me!

Sometimes it makes me wonder, looking at how many friends some people have, wow that's an awful number of friends to maintain, must be a very popular individual!!! But are they just showing off, trying to boost their ego and image? And then there are some who add just about anyone.......just because they see someone's profile, they want to add them, and they send a message pleading you to add them as your friend! Duh......don't you have better things to do than have some random person as your friend? Kind of changes the definition of friend.

According to Merriam-Webster, a friend is: one attached to another by affection or esteem

I dont have any affection or any kind of esteem for a stranger! 

If I've met you even maybe once in life, you are not a friend to me, you are an absolute stranger! Maybe that is why my friend list is so small, and I am so contempt with that. I am more comfortable having people who know me see my profile. So my sole raison d'être on these n/w sites is to reconnect with longlost dosts, as opposed to showing off how many people I know or don't or met somewhere for a brief period, but somehow managed to become my friend.

This is just my avis de la matière and I'm sure all have their own.

Au Revoir and Joyeux réseau (Happy Networking!)!

P.S.: the reason for this blog-post is the article which was floating the web last week ....how an employee, got in troubled waters due to his Facebook status and another article I read which shows  whether a social networker is a narcissist. Both interesting reads.
