The world through red eyes

Posted on September 13, 2003

It’s been so long, that you don’t remember the last time.

I’m talking about conjunctivitis, silly.

It’s painful. It’s horrible. Not to mention what it does to your face.

On the first day, you feel like a whole potato has been shoved under your eyelids.

You can’t keep it open. You can’t close it either.

Argggh…

The second day the pain continues. Now you look like you’ve had several shots of vodka and are still not satisfied.

You look into the mirror.

Argggh…

You let out a loud scream. Is that really… what you look like?

People stare like you just stepped out of a horror story. It’s no wonder really. Looking like that, even I was shocked.

I think I’ll go home and hibernate for a while now. Before the guy at the cyber cafe throws me out.

The night I got rained out!

Posted on June 14, 2009June 14, 2009

Of course we all know what happens on Bangalore roads when it rains. But I was the least prepared for the events to unfold that night. After dinner with friends at Indiranagar I set off towards Koramangala. It had been raining for around an hour but I didn’t really realize…

The view from here

Posted on January 23, 2007January 23, 2007

“Smart,qualified, witty, employed young women, extrovert, party animals – in short “eligible” in every sense but unmarried. Reason: they haven’t come across the “right” man yet. Are their expectations very high? Do they want the looks of a Brad Pitt and the qualities of a Darcy and the wealth of Bill Gates preferably with the voice of Amitabh Bachchan and the poetry of Neruda? Not really. They just want a man who shares their interests and respects their independence and is fun to be with. Or so they claim!

Look what I nearly picked up in Goa!

Posted on November 8, 2004

Isn’t he absolutely adorable? Of course, Kit Kit would have been mighty jealous if she knew how much fun I had with these cute creatures in Goa! And there were seven of them. This one poses like a doll. I was really tempted to pack him up and bring him…

    One morning last year I woke up with conjunctivitis. My eyes were glued shut and I kept flushing them with saline- I had no idea it was conjunctivitis until I went to health services on campus. They gave me this fantastic ointment. Erythromycin is relief in a tube. I think that for a short time I was addicted to it.

    You mean Madras eye 😉 Pity you get it now, so many months after visiting Chennai. It’s a bitch, but heals pretty fast. Take care though. I’ve updated my link to you.
