The Timely Tag!!

Published January 25, 2009 by Ambika

I am currently going through a Mental Blockade (its winter time, you see 😛 ) because of which, I am not being able to think of any thing that I can Blog about!! Harsh tagged me with this “Flickr Tag” right on time!! For a Lazy Log, like me, being told what to do is a lot easier than thinking and deciding about it on my own!!! 😆 So, Thanks a lot Harsh 😛 And Arpit here’s this “very soon” post I was talking about.. :mrgreen:

MAMTA BAN..err..Jee..!!

Published January 4, 2009 by Ambika

O Hail Mamta..!!

I am sure everyone knows her. And why not, she hasn’t left a single stone un-turned to ensure that everybody does. But still, for the sake of information, she’s the Trinamul Congress (TMC) Party leader. Besides she also HaPpEns to be the one behind most mis-HaPpEnInGs that keep HaPpEnInG in West Bengal (W.B.)

I feel, she sure must’ve had something to do with a CAR in her previous re-inCARnation..! That’s because,

My never-2-b-resolved ReSoLuTiOnS..!! :D

Published January 1, 2009 by Ambika

Yaayy!! It’s 2009! 😀 Wish you all a (timely) Very Very Merry & a Happy New Year, (na Advance wala-na belated wala 😛 )

This year I didn’t have a NeW YeaR PaRtY as such, in particular. But I somehow still feel VeRy HaPpY, for no reason in particular..

Isn’t that’s all that Matters?? 😀

I could have very well posted this post at a more better time of the day, but “SoMeOnE” who called me sometime back to wish me a Happy New Year, said, “If you’re at home, & doing nothing, then why not write something! Your posts make me ☺SmiLe☺ whenever I am depressed!” Now THAT is enough motivation to write at this odd hour! C’mon, how silly they might be, my posts (ocassionaly) do solve my purpose »» to bring a smile on “SoMeOnE’s” face.. 🙂 So THIS post is for THAT “SoMeOnE” and EvErYOnE else.. 🙂

Hmmm….

Anyways! So it’s time for the New Year Resolutions, yet again.. 😀 But as everyone knows, RESOLUTIONS/Rules are meant to be broken!

M I Missin Sumthn??

Am I Missing Sumthing??

So here’s a list of RESOLUTIONS that I’ve RESOLVED to “not to follow” in the year ahead!! 😀 ( For clarity – I’m NOT going to Follow the Following) :-

The ‘NATIONAL’ Terrorists!!

Published December 2, 2008 by Ambika

Never in my life had I been glued to my tv set like on the 27th of Nov, 08. Bullets, guns, explosions… DEATH.. I have seen all of it before, on t.v. itself, yet somehow never ever felt it so closely.

But its been 3 days now, since the horror ended. A lot has been said, read and written about it already. I do not wish to add more to it. What I do write here is, some of my own insights, and a few questions, un-answered…

” I Chose to Doubt, Than to Believe!! “

Published November 15, 2008 by Ambika

              No, I am not being self-critical (I only criticise others.. 😉 )

That is a line from the book “Many Lives, Many Masters” by Dr. Brian Weiss, psychiatrist. I have a (strange?) habit of noting down lines that catch my attention as I read, (I don’t use all of them as a blog post, though!)

              Dr. Brian Weiss, as his book suggests is a man, a notch (or several notches I must say) higher than the rest of us! So what he chose to DOUBT about, is something I am not dwelling into. I realised the statement is, however, very much relevant to All of us (people of lower intellect  😐  )

               Unknowingly, we tend to DOUBT everything around us,  believing nothing or No-one.. I managed to compile the following list.. Have a look..

Or better still, lets have a small poll. Count the number of ‘YES’ answers that you have and then let us know..

BLACK-POST

Published November 12, 2008 by Ambika

Its been loooong since I have posted something. Not that I have nothing to write about. But I have no time to sit and write it out. Even this post is an extract from what I read in the papers day before yesterday with a few (infact, quite a few) additions from my side. 

So if someone who has read that paper, finds ANY or MANY similarities, then its purely INTENTIONAL…!!!! – DISCLAIMER

Diwali Blues!!

Published October 27, 2008 by Ambika

Its Diwali time.. Everywhere there is a chaos. With everyone busy in getting the house readied for the Festival.

Mom and Grand mom are busy in deciding Menus and their Preparations ( I am a strict no-no in the kitchen when there is serious cooking going on, thanks to my cullinary skills- which I dont possess..at all!!)

Dad is busy with his business chores (much to my mom’s annoyance) and when questioned, he beautifully escapes by saying that he is preparing for the preparations in his own way – something that ‘WE’ (specifically, my Mom) would never understand. And she doesn’t. Neither do I.

And finally, whose the one left??

“Food for Thought” and vice-versa

Published October 9, 2008 by Ambika

Happy Dusshera!!!

It’s a Hol’y’-DAY!!!! My entire family had to go somewhere right in the morning! I chose not to go.. And here I am.. Home Alone..!

O! what fun it is.. I am delighted!! 😀

 

But, my delight didn’t last long enough (sigh) !! As soon as I got hungry, I realised, its better staying at home “with family” than starving!!! 😐

My mom had sure known I would soon repent staying alone, so she had left a variety of things for me to eat.. on the table – (She was also sure I wouldn’t bother searching for them in the kitchen myself!)

“MAA DURGA.. HELP ME!!”

Published October 6, 2008 by Ambika

No. That wasn’t Buddhadeb Bhattacharya’s (Hon’ able CM of Bengal) cry of distress as he bade Ta-ta to the Tatas!!

Nor was it Sourav Ganguly hoping, the BCCI would extend his not-so-extendible career!!!

These were the words I found written, last week, on a pavement with colourful Calcium Carbonate!! Yes, you read it write, Calcium Carbonate! For the science-ignorant people like me, it’s the chemical name for Chalk!!! Feeling better??

As I go to attend my classes on the same route every morning, sitting in my bus, I cross this one particular side-path (footpath, pavement). Not that it has something special about it to hold my attention. But, it’s a long-owned, self-imposed residence of a Tramp! And that too quite a scary one! Not that I despise his fate or condition. Just that looking at him scares me!! I feel so happy that I am on a bus feet(s) away from him!!
