November 2009

… spending quality time with friends. We were invited for a dinner party last weekend. It was a food galore! Assortments of Iranian delicacies. With gob-smacking taste-buds, we indulged like there was no tomorrow πŸ˜€ If only the photo’s could speak for itself:

Thinking of joining school for perhaps a 2nd MBA or PhD. It’s excitingΒ  to just shop around for more information. Still unsure whether should I do my 2nd Masters or PhD. Kind of back and forth over so many options. And the list of things to do in order to get an admission? God help me! It’s a load of elbow grease let me tell you this. It’s worth it if you are selected into one of many US accredited university or college. I have started preparing for GMAT. And I have visitors over for this weekend. Good lord! So much to do, so less time πŸ™‚ October has proven to be one of our busiest month after a long time. A productive one for sure. November is showing the same signs.

Last weekend, we played monopoly till wee hours. There were many illegal negotiations and bribery in order to get out of jail and debts. A blast from the past for sure.Β  What should we play next? Gilli danda?

Being absent from the blogosphere does come with many surprises. New comments from new readers, hundreds of spam comments and unread feed reads. A lot to catch on. The sweetest surprise of all is to know that Chatterbox (my blog) and Shutterbox (my photo-blog) is nominated at Orbbies: Orlando’s Rockin’ Blogs organized by Orlando Sentinel.

The Orlando Sentinel Orbbies Contest is looking for Orlando’s best local blogs. I am very appreciative if you could find the time and vote daily for my blog and photo-blog. This is so exciting πŸ™‚ I’ve created two separate banners as below for ease of voting. Please click on each to vote separately, one for our blog and the other, for my photo-blog. The badge on the top-right sidebar is click-able as well, for voting. You would have to register with a user id and password in order to cast your vote. But if you’re a fellow Orlandoan, and you are yet to register, there is no excuse of unfamiliarity with Orlando Sentinel. It would be shocking! Thank you guys, you are the best! Wish us luck!
