From the past few days it feels like I have sunk into a pit of funk. I am aware of this and I want to get myself out of it. But so far, my attempts have been futile. Where has all my optimism and joi de vivre ( I hope I got that right) ..you [...]

This is a “rant” post. Has it ever happened to you, that you are having fun and the time of your life and are suddenly gripped with the fear of losing it. Someone rightly said, it is only they that have much to lose that are afraid. I find myself in that position. I am [...]

Finally, after almost 10 months here in Amsterdam, I got to see a decent Bollywood flick on the big screen. Those who know me, know that I like watching movies in the theatre, on the big screen. As opposed to TV or laptop. I have been mostly out of touch with what is happening on [...]

It has been quite a non happening month since my solo trip to the Greek islands and Istanbul. The weather in Amsterdam has been tricky to say the least. I am looking up to the skies and thinking, this is supposed to be summer. But we have been having rains and cloudy weather for most [...]

It has been almost a month since my last post. I was definitely more prolific a year or so ago.  I used write one post a week. So, what is different now? I think maybe I am overthinking it. Maybe I feel that I am getting repetitive. That I do not have anything new to [...]

Woo hoo L Just one comment for my previous post. Where have all my readers gone? I guess , they would turn around and [...]

Dear God,
 
Since I do not, I’ll just punch away my anger on my blog page. I know it will do me no good. Because if YOU in your might have chosen to whip me, I probably will get whipped some more for the hate mail. 
But, I do believe that keeping anger inside is just bad [...]
