To every Indian across the globe,
in this difficult and tragic time…
We are saddened, angered and bewildered as we sat watching the act of cowardliness by terrorists. Speechless, feeling so dumbfounded and helpless. Hoping for an answer to when would this act of inhuman banish forever? It saddens me to think how would our future generation lead their life. Would it be as negative or more peaceful?
Media coverage has been quite fluid at the moment. Can’t help it when they are also trying to seek proper and legitimate information from the authorities. Nevertheless, I am also viewing updates from a handful of latest tweets from two bloggers/twitters on their blogs, Vinu and Arun.
I shall retire to my bed now, after a sleepless night, with the thoughts of every Indian around the globe. May god bless you and your families, friends and loved ones with courage to overcome this challenging times in our lives.
Happy Navratri and Dushera everyone!
My dear Hubby, thanks a lot for covering some post whilst I was away tucked under heaps of books and research. I hope many of you out there indulged in Tarun’s view on political and economical situation. I want to hear more on that from you guys. My MBA has bogged me down with quite to do for the last few weeks. This semester is over now, looking forward to my last semester which is just around the corner. So I have many agenda to catch up with before the deadly semester starts 😉
I need to start preparing for Karva Chauth and Diwali which is just around the corner. Gosh, I can’t wait for Diwali. It would be the first Diwali in our new home. We need to do lots of shopping and planning. On a personal note, I need to catch up with some friends over tea and coffee, getting in new flower pots and shrubs for my garden and the lists goes on and on.
Hubby has suggested to go for a new website. Our own website, YAY! I would need some domain name and web hosting suggestions. Anyone out there to give us a few tips?
We have not watched enough movies lately. I think the last movie we watched was … aarr… wait, i can remember…yes i can, come on! yikes! It’s been a while since we sat and watched a movie together! Right now I am hooked on Khuda Jaane, from Bachna Ae Haseeno. I love the song!
Life here can be pretty routine and hectic sometimes. I need to catch up on some reading. I love Sophie Kinsella’s array of books. They are very amusing, witty and fun to read. It is sort of a way to relax at the end of the day, with a nice book and a cup of bubble tea. Yum! I would read and provide review on the book once it’s completed.
I just discovered Tumblr. I think it’s a cool medium for short blog on links, photos, videos and many cool features. Check it out, I’ve created a link on the right bar labeled Tumblr.
xoxo
Noticed I have not post anything for almost a week now? That is because I am focusing all my energy towards completing my MBA theses. Shall be back with updates on my blog some time next week. Drop in a comment or two and motivate me 😀
Have a nice week and weekend ahead.

I switched on the TV set
with a cup of tea in my hand
I did not know what to expect
but not as I read the headlines
my mentor, my guide in Web
gone far away, as I learned, I wept
the light call upon his name
we would never remain the same
close in our heart
where there isn’t a doubt
RIP Randy Pausch
to love, and despair
the cruelty of mankind
I hate it, why is it always like that
one that you love the most
taken suddenly, cruelly?
what happens to his family?
i can’t imagine, i cant
but i would always pray for them
dear Jai, Dylan, Logan and Chloe
be strong, we are sorry
for he shall not be there
but remains in our heart forever
condolences, we all seek to give
pray, and he shall rest in peace
forever…
Rest in Peace Dr. Randy Pausch
(Oct 23, 1960 – July 25, 2008)
