Posted on March 7, 2005

It was after ages that I decided to call everyone home on my birthday. Usually, it’s a quiet dinner with a handful of friends, but this time I decided to have a bit of a blast.

A big thank you to everyone who came home and made Saturday a very special day for me including Meghna, Vasu, Venkat, Spidey, Madhu, Arun, Joshi, Janani, Nanjappa, Vaish, Shankar & Usha, Ganesh & Vrinda, Rocky, Bijoy and another handful of family members. I even asked everyone to dress in red, and almost everyone obliged – including Bijoy who carried a red handkerchief and Nanjappa who sat through the whole evening with a red rose in his hands!

And all those who called from wherever they were – my dearest pals Mohana & Rup, Rinku, Rukhshana & MM, Mona, Lynn and Albert, Kaushal and my sister. It was a nice change to the restaurant routine, except for the excess food that was cooked! I think I shall do this again – in about 5 years time!

Pop about town!

Posted on June 7, 2005June 7, 2005

Dad, or Papa as I call him, arrived in town last week and therefore my slight lack of time. He’s in town for just a few days and it’s been quite interesting to have him around. One thing about Papa is that he flowers when Mum is not around. He’s talkative, chatty and engages everyone in some kind of conversation or another.

What makes you feel alive? Part 1

Posted on October 14, 2012October 14, 2012

. I am sure it’s something all of you have experienced. Sometimes in quiet moments and sometimes in your wildest hours, when you’re exhilarated… When you’re totally in the moment, doing something that makes you feel “alive”.
