Change and some more and a scene.


I joined the GYM! Yes, now like plenty of other people I’m a gym goer. I only recently started and am very enthusiastic about it. Everyone around me is not quiet sure how long my enthusiasm will last. Well that we’ll have to wait and see both you and I. As I am not sure about it myself. But I am on a high of just having started something new and enjoying it. Though My body and mind don’t seem to be on the same page about the whole Gyming experience. While my mind is buzzing with excitement my body is cringing at the very sight of weights. My entire right side hurts so much. Phew. I wish the pain would subside but weirdly only my right side (neck + back + arm) hurts like someone tried to dislodge the arm very unsuccessfully. I have been told that the pain is normal and will soon be gone. Soon is not soon enough!

They play remixed versions of the latest songs that I haven’t ever heard and only did after going there. I feel old when I am not aware of the latest music, though I am mostly thankful because with Beiber on the scene it is best to not acknowledge music at all that is so widely enjoyed by the current generation.  Original Sound Tracks of some of the recent Movies though are extremely listen worthy.

While I was feeling old and wondering if I am ever going to get back to downloading music I was interrupted by a kid working out next to me who thought I was a 12th standard student. (THAT! people should have made me happy, but only annoyed me.) He and I managed to get past the, " are you really a Lawyer?" bit in our conversation and went back to our own thoughts. The kid kept asking me if I was trying to rib him because it is the Fool’s month. I had to show him my Bar Council I.D and only then did he relent. Even my trainer wasn't convinced until he saw the I.D too. I must admit that sometimes it gives me much joy when I am mistaken for a Kid but most of the times I am annoyed. People who look like little girls aren't often taken seriously. Fact.

In other news I got to witness this scene:

(On Good Friday)

Ignorant Girl: Happy Good Friday!
Christian Boy: Huh?
IG: It’s a Holiday isn’t it?
CB: *Rolls his eyes*Yeah and a very good one. I hope you wish people Happy Muharram too!
IG: Of Course I do, I am very secular.


Happy weekend people and it is good to be back. Peace. :)

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 ...
