thoghts in 20 minutes :O

• people always tell me i am a person of extremes. when i like a person, i am the most loyal to him/her. when i start disliking a person, i show my dislike and dissent to their actions. i cant bring myself to explain things. anyway they will fall on deaf ears.

• how long is one supposed to be patient and a good samaritan for? u know, i cant stand these people who get their work done at the cost of our time and energy. sacrifices can be made to a certain extent only.

• and if u have the guts to talk abt a person when he/she's not around, don deny it when the person asks u if u did it . accept it. let the person know u are being transparent in ur actions and words. its any day safer. u at least know who ur real friends and well-wishers are.

• all these hot outbursts aside, chennai is fun. rain doesn't play spoilsport too much. if u decide to get drenched. :) happened last week. i was walking out when it was pouring like mad. the colour of my dress started to run. i was gleefully admiring my delightfully pink feet :D .

• i love pineapple cake. and i love strawberry smoothie. i must mention chocolate. i hope no hater-of-me gives me chocolate poison. i might consume it. ok, i am not an alpe. :D .. well..i am giving u ideas : .

• i tried this restaurant here called sanjeevanam in nungambakkam. i was pretty skeptical about it because the word "health" in "health restaurant" was kinda repulsive. i thought it is a place for the health freaks and oldies and not for ppl my age what if i puked? what if i er... not feel good later :D ... nevertheless, being a major foodie, i decided to plunge into the mission :D. we ordered the special meals. i was like.. ugh. how boring.

• the waiter laid the huge banana leaf before me. he brought 5 tiny glass cups. they had weirdly coloured potions : ok, it was beetroot juice (no sugar), rice bran extract (!), coriander buttermilk and 2 other juices.. with herbs n stuff. i badly wanted to run away from the place. i gingerly held the first cup. (we had to consume it in some specific order.. as per instructions) hey! it tasted good! i downed each cup and ... i thought i'd be full : ... but my appetite started growing at a terrific rate. i couldn't wait for the main course. first came just steamed vegetables. then they served semi-cooked food. dhal, and vegetables. and then rice with the usual rasam and stuff. to round it off, it was a full glass of water. (no water between munches and mouthfuls) and then, a palmful of honey. omg. that WAS a spread. healthy and filling. believe me, i've never had a complete lunch before. this was AWESOME. people, please try it out if u haven't. no second thoughts. its smashin'.

• college: sem pracs over. no big deal. : viva was lovely in networks. for once, a sensible lady came. she asked really good questions which made me think well. which i didn't do for microprocessors. we simply jotted the important questions down and were prepared only for those questions. miserable viva. becoz in mup, if we flopped the viva, the external would scrutinize the program : and reduce marks for not understanding the concepts. or that's wat we were told. but for one ECE sir, we would have ended up with nice zeroes that wud have decorated the mark list. dbms was weird. period.

• i somehow cannot relate to people who think they needn't care about the society.eventually, i am the one who gets affected : .

• a visit to my native village recharged me. fresh air, fresh milk, sitting on the stone benches outside the house (thinnais) :) and looking at the street kids play with a tyre.. rolling it along the way... buffaloes in the marsh. walks to the mangroves, coconut groves and the rice fields, "athi kulam" , lotuses, wells, snakes, scorpions, pigs, cows, bullock-carts, local paneer-soda, temples, "kuppaimeni" herb for the rash i developed on the back of my palm, thanks to some insect.... and sigh, power-cuts : , oor-vambu :D .. oh it was so much fun :)

• i went to this place called madhuramangalam, one of the deities being the holy saint "embar swami", cousin of saint ramanuja. i was excited because i thought it was the native of my favourite violinist embar kannan and i expected to see his ancestral house n all. (i have been listening to too many pazhaya kadhais). later i realised i was stupid :.... hmm... i idolize him. he is blessed. u must listen to him in live.

• i am falling in love with sarees. Diva, a unit of Hi-style in anna nagar is THE place for designer wear and anarkali suits :) check it out if u haven't , girls.

• i love shopping with grandmom. because it happens so quickly :D

• the character Ucchaishravas in koorma avatharam is fascinating me to no end . Ucchaishravas means `sharp-ears`. he is a divine seven-headed flying horse, and was obtained during the churning of paarkadal .Ucchaishravas is said to be snow white in colour, with a jet black tail.. i wish i had a small pony like that :D and i am totally in love with his name :) :)

• study holidays... : .
