Lazy winters




After so many Ups and Downs in the year 2012, here I welcome 2013 in Dubai. Yeah. Second winters here and hating it. It wasn't this freezy last year but this time…May be because I am getting out of my house daily for my office. These are the few things about winters which I really reallyyyy hate.

- Winter mornings?? Getting up early for daily routine is really horrible. Ppl plz suggest some tricks to stay @ home 24*7. I don’t wanna get up early for office now. How about work from home?
- It’s dark all the time- it’s dark at 5pm now that really scares me.
- Cold shower? Naah!- It takes forever for my shower water to warm up. Excuse me? Who likes cold shower?
- This dry air- makes for some miserable dry skin and chapped lips ;) It probably has to do with that super hot shower. Yeah…I know.
- Wind chill- In the summer, you WANT the wind to blow. And in winters, it makes terrible weather ever more terrible. Now this year m gonna face all extreme cold wind in Dubai. Hottest place though but cold as of now.
- Frizzy Fridays- Fridays are even more scary for me. Yeah. I work all alone in the office sometimes and wonder why these UAE people save electricity and shut all the corridor lights off. Huh. No light anywhere except my office and yeah of course road side lights.
- Please. Put on some music- can’t work in quite atmosphere. Either headphones, or loudspeaker. Music is must ;) [Disclaimer- Please note that if you are one of my colleague, neglect this point. ;)]
- Actually. I am lazy. And I admit this fact. I don’t like working, I don’t like cooking, I don’t like cleaning. And all above, I don’t like getting out of that cozzzyyy comforter. No more stuff to write now. M tired. And want to sleep again. ;)
Hope you all had a rocking NYE party. Wishing you all luck, good health and cheerful year ahead. I’ll now get back to blog regularly. Missing many moments and wanna right them down.

Happy winters and Happy new year :)

Being a woman - A Woman of Substance...

Every woman carries her responsibility differently. Please don’t compare . A woman wakes up early and gets ready. She prepares her kids for school. She makes breakfast for the entire family. Serves breakfast. She prepares lunch and dinner. She makes her kids do homework. She manages household chores like dusting, watering plants, washing clothes and ironing them. Makes sure, her house is clean all the time. A woman, a housewife has a lot of things to do. No need to count them. No one can count them either. On the contrary, there is another woman, who is not a homemaker, but a working mum. She wakes up. Makes food for everyone. She sends her kids to school. Leaves for work leaving some household chores, which she does anyway after coming back. Now here, don’t you feel she needs some rest? Don’t you feel she needs some help? Domestic help? Why calling her husband or someone from the family for help is considered to be deplorable? I agree with the fact that eve

On being called the #f-word

A woman usually has to face what almost all brown and healthy women go through - being reproved for the colour of the skin or the size she is …and being told that she is too tall, too short, too fat or too dark. The #TOO part of every word is bizarre, I feel. Here in this post, I am sharing few experiences of my friends who went through or are still going through such illogical ideologies of our so called society… My friend’s aunt would keep asking her mum to do ‘ubtan’ - a home remedy with home ingredients including chickpea flour, curd etc. to ‘lighten’ my friend's skin tone. A lot of face packs, several parlor sittings, face washes etc and comments were a part and parcel of her growing up years.   WHY? I don’t get the point that why a girl always has to be white or wheaty? Isn’t she beautiful when dusky or dark? Isn’t she a golden hearted? Another friend of mine was asked to eat sprouts for her breakfast, 2 rotis and 1 bowl dal for lunch and salad f

Cheers to 8 amazing years of togetherness.

I had no idea what marriage entails. Marriage, like everything else in life, cannot be taught or understood before it is lived. It needs to be felt. Sometimes it feels joyous, sometimes it hurts. There are married couples who claim they are still madly in love. For them, marriage doesn’t require major adjustments or sacrifices. They naturally know how to keep each other happy, how to live a perfectly balanced and harmonious life. But for us, we struggled with such concept of a perfectly harmonious marriage because ours’ was far different from it. I even thought something was dreadfully wrong with our marriage by comparing our relationship to other people’s. I thought we were an anomaly. We used to swim through turbulent waters ineptly. We even survived a few tsunamis together. Despite such accidents, we swam gawkily and rose above the surface.  It’s certainly not the prettiest picture of marriage but perhaps the most realistic, the one that helps marriages last a lifetim
