Monday blues

Happy Monday and the official beginning of FALL! I loved reading your views on “breaking the ice“. Can I say how happy I am that many of you share the same qualms with me on this topic?!

As if it wasn’t enough to know the ABC’s of me, I thought it would be fun to share more about who I am. Who am I kidding? Let’s face it, I totally wanted to rant. Yeah, that’s what my blog space is for – ranting!

Breaking the ice

Good morning!! I hope you are having a great start on a Monday.

I wanted to confess about a topic that have been etching for a debate quite a while now. You see, I do blog. Heck, not only I am a blogger, but I create recipes and photograph as well.

I might be perceived as an out-goer with a great personality. Well, who am I to reject those qualities? But I want to come clean. I have a shy personality.

Garnered I’ve attended a handful of social events. Admittedly I still have problem in breaking the ice. It’s a term used as making an introduction to a complete stranger and getting to know more people by making a fool out of myself. Well, that’s my definition. I have trouble communicating my thoughts and I blame it on various reasons:

In remembrance

of what took place 10 years ago.

At one point, Mom thought what she’s seeing couldn’t be real. She was so convinced that it looked like a scene from a Hollywood movie or something. I don’t blame her. It looked eerie, surreal and unbelieving.

Post-marriage realizations

Good thing, I blog. Bad thing, the Husband does get ratted out on the blog, occasionally. Not to make fun of him, just to share some of our post-marriage life antics. And to point out the obvious. Because in our opinion, discussing is way overrated.

Give me some attention!

If not all. It definitely feels like it was some long time ago where Tarun would enthusiastically plan our date nights. These days, he is preoccupied with online games. Not Wii, Kinect, Xbox or such console games. But Sudoku’s, Solitaire and pool games. Apparently, he needs to catch on with the latest game. Oh, did I just suggest that? Darn.. Don’t remind me of Angry Birds. It just angers me.

You say goodbye, and I say hello

.. to September!! Out with the sweltering hot, in with the rain and crisp weather. Hoping hurricane season would die out soon. How time flies, it’s beyond my understanding.

I am loving everyone’s comment from my last post, “the power of giving“. It is so refreshing to know that many of you are into charity and donating to needy. There’s nothing better than the feeling of making a difference in others life.
