Every Picture Tells A Story

The man and his dog.










This man can’t live without his dog and his dog can’t live without him. A bag binds them. Wherever the man goes the dog goes with him. The dog doesn’t make a fuss just sits in the bag happy to be in the same room as the man. Not a bark not a noise just contentment oozes out of the duo. I envy them.





                                                                 The lone millipede.




This is the season when the millipedes and centipedes crawl out and cause us humans to run for cover. Though why people run away from them I don’t understand. They make the awesomest jack in the box or rather guess what I’m holding in my hands trick. If you touch them the curl up and lie still. They make miniature Frisbees. In school I used to collect them and throw them at people who used to try and bully me. They were not scared of me but they were scared of something much much tinier than me. I figured that people wouldn’t come near me if I had some creepy crawly with me. I remember showing a girl earth worms and convincing her that they were baby snakes and that their poison was far more potent than the adult snake. It was more fun to hold them up and ask her to pet them J



The dog in the theater.



This mutt ran inside the theater and found himself a chair. Jumped on it and settled himself there for his afternoon nap while we humans walked inside the theater to waste 2 very precious hours of our life. Should have napped instead like the dog.



The wasp that drowned in the Beer.


I only remember the conversation over this pitcher and now I can’t help but marvel at how much has changed between my friend and I since this pitcher.



Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon



For some reason this picture reminds me of the movie. One of my favorite movies. This was taken at Sheradi Ghats.  Not the route we usually take to head out to Mangalore. We probably went this way to keep some memories out or may be it was just bad roads or both.

Google Pixel XL - Review

Image
I had been meaning to change my phone for over a year and it was then that this phone had caught my eye – The Google Pixel XL. I had read so much about it. Found that a lot of people that I am surrounded by had no intentions of getting it. Here is the thing, my sole reason for investing in a gadget has to do with the following: ·         Its price should be within a certain range i.e it should not burn a hole in my wallet. ·         It should at least be guaranteed that the product will be receiving software support for a minimum of 3 years. ·         It should have excellent user interface to make life easy and be a tool for communication as well as relaxation. ·         It should have a good camera. ·         Its accessories must be easily available in the market. It’s with the help of this list that I short list...

Hey Little Girl... Part I

The little girl aped her elder brother. To her, he was the coolest dude that existed. She was the kid in school who was spoken to because she was so and so’s sister. As a kid she was extremely naïve. Her brother was the quizzer, the topper, the teacher’s pet, the social guy and everybody liked him. She on the other hand was the brat, the swimmer, a teacher’s nightmare, anti social and didn’t want to be liked by anyone. They were polar opposites of each other. Her brother - the witty charmer and She, the *shrugs shoulders* and very impolitely leaving conversation kind of person. Perhaps… the younger version of her envied the ease with which her brother was able to make friends and be at the core of everything that was happening in school. The fact that they were so different and studied in the same school eventually led to teachers constantly comparing them. It wasn’t anything she couldn’t handle. But imagine a little girl always being chastised and all sermons ending with, “why ...

The Journey

Last weekend was amazing. It began by me traveling solo from Mysore to Madras. I plonked my bags at my best friend's place. Her roomie, she and I headed to Mahabalipuram where we saw the famed sculptures carved out of single boulders. The carvings are pretty intricate and the sight is very pretty but the highlight of the visit was a monkey. While we were leaving the place we saw a troop of monkeys and one of them immediately took a fancy to my friend’s roomie. Now this girl is scared of almost every animal. It became very obvious to her that the monkey was eying the bottle in her hand. She threw it at the monkey. The monkey picked it opened the bottle and gulped the juice and looked so pleased! It was a sight. It does not seem hilarious in print but it was incredibly funny. But before going to Mahablipuram we stopped at the Crocodile Park where I learnt to hold a baby crocodile and also a python. I actually felt the crocodile gulp when I was holding it. The place ...
