New beginnings Posted on January 18, 2007January 18, 2007 I know! We’re well into the New Year and my blog’s looking really ignored. Someone emailed me today and asked me what the matter was. It’s true. And I’ve been ignoring the blog for a while but I have a good excuse. Life and all its exigencies 🙂 After a lovely but tiring trek on the 31st, welcomed the New Year in the jungles of Masinagudi. Spent most of it around the bonfire, playing games like Pictionary, DC and then Truth or Dare. A rather quiet but nice way to herald 2007… It’s been a hectic time thereafter, both on the work front and personally. I’ve lost count of the number of January birthdays already. And I’m wondering why there are so many people I know born this month! Some more travel into the New year including a trek in the beautiful ranges of Mullayangiri and Babubudangiri : really gorgeous scenery and lovely weather all through. Camped out on top of a hill by Galikere lake (aka Lake of Winds) with a 360 degree view of the mountains, valleys and forests and several water bodies around and got to wake up to a beautiful sunrise in the morning. The trip report and pics are coming. In the meanwhile, a glimpse of the beautiful Nilgiris.

What’s in a name?! Posted on April 26, 2006April 26, 2006 Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes had a baby daughter. Okay, that’s not so surprising. It was expected after all. But what I can’t understand is their choice of name. Celebrities seem to be intent on giving their kids the strangest names so that they have a tough time in school… Share this: Share on Facebook (Opens in new window) Facebook Share on Reddit (Opens in new window) Reddit Share on X (Opens in new window) X Share on Pinterest (Opens in new window) Pinterest Email a link to a friend (Opens in new window) Email Share on Tumblr (Opens in new window) Tumblr Print (Opens in new window) Print Read More
Tread softly Posted on September 19, 2007September 19, 2007 This story, forwarded by friend Asha, actually reminded me of something I’ve been meaning to write about too. How badly we treat the ones closest to us and the lengths we go to in front of acquaintances and strangers, in order to create a good impression.
