The year in 3 parts- here's part 2 (2 more days to go for the big '09)







hmmm...ma numbers seem to be all over the place...first i realized that including the 28th it had to be four days to '09...then i got confused all over again with the numbers...and then the internet was down yesterday and i was bloody low that i lost out on a day and then i realized again that i actually lost it for a good reason...anyway now that am here might as well start writing what i came here for...from may-august---
  • this was the peak in ma life at the old agency where frustration hit me hard that i almost reeled over
  • made decision to quit and escape the clutches of a frustrated woman battling hormones and a weird mid life crisis
  • june i was finally outta the company
  • went to goa for a holiday...went crazy..had sugar rush and a lot happened (now don't go about imagining stuff sweet peas!!!nuthing much happened thou i can safely say a lot happened ;)
  • left bangalore and moved into chennai for two months
  • living with old people, eating yummy homemade food made by granny, cracking jokes with thathu, teaching him-a 75 year old man how to use the net and navigate thru yahoo mail and g mail, working on an office space, a trip to the beach accompanied by lil bites of raw mangoes
  • slowly getting into the rythm of flirting with men
  • revelling in wonderful tamizh music
  • discovering i could after all get tanned and also be sun burnt
  • endless evening at koshy's..cups and cups of chai, plates and plates of smileys, bizzare and pointless conversations-the only ones that could bring a smile on our otherwise wan face
  • discovering the existence of the meow meow and the woof woof types of men
hmmm a lot happened these four months that might not interest many..but to me this was the time i spent in getting to know myself all over again...getting in touch with myself...the me that was lost in the PR job...enjoying simple pleasures of life-walking on the beach, getting wet in the auto due to rains, getting lost in a city that is new to you but is the city you hail from, seeing gorgeous old iyer and iyengar pattis in beautiful and colorful sarees with traditional diamond ear rings and nose rings...the temple bells ringing in the evening..and finally an overwhelming sense of pride that i hail from this beautiful city- 'CHENNAI'
until tomorrow for the last post of the year...nite nite dahlings!!!!!
