Wandering scribbler..

Just felt like sharing one of my favorite poems with you...:) Do not stand at my grave and weep I am not there. I do not sleep. I am a thousand winds that blow. I am the diamond glints on snow.   I am the sunlight on ripened grain. I am the gentle autumn rain. When you awaken in the morning's hush  I am the swift uplifting rush   Of quiet birds in circled flight. I am the soft stars that shine at night. Do not stand at my grave and cry;  I am not there. I did not die.  Mary Elizabeth Frye Happy 2nd Birthday to my blog..:)

10 Lessons from Einstein 1. Follow Your Curiosity  “I have no special talent. I am only passionately curious.” 2. Perseverance is Priceless “It’s not that I’m so smart; it’s just that I stay with problems longer.” 3. Focus on the Present “Any man who can drive safely while kissing a pretty girl is simply not giving the kiss the attention it deserves.” 4. The Imagination is Powerful “Imagination is everything. It is the preview of life’s coming attractions. Imagination is more important than knowledge.” 5. Make Mistakes “A person who never made a mistake never tried anything new.” 6. Live in the Moment “I never think of the future – it comes soon enough.” 7. Create Value “Strive not to be a success, but rather to be of value.” 8. Don’t be repetitive “Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.”  9. Knowledge Comes From Experience “Information is not knowledge.

I got up in the morning,yes yet again I slept off on my birthday with my phone silent(I think old habits die hard..!)...And I had to answer so many threat messages in the morning from my friends,and to top that up my phone line got jammed at night which is why some friends found my phone busy,I was totally busted...!! Anyway what is actually new and special about my18th birthday (except the fact that I'm no longer 17..!!!) is that I got up at 6.30am today(for a late riser like me,that's like totally an achievement..!!).. Today after waking up and as usual looking at the time in my phone I nearly screamed at the number of missed calls and messages then I called mom just to tell her about 'me' waking up at 6.30 and to ask her whether everything back there is fine (obviously with 57 missed calls and god knows how many messages what else do people do..!!) and before I could say anything mum wished me happy birthday and I just sleepily said "eh birthday ohh birthday

Its been quite sometime that i landed in Mumbai... Well!! it's been 3yrs that I last came here and though I have this love-hate kinda relationship with Mumbai,I am kinda excited because this time I'm here to give an exam on my birthday which doesn't mean anything but still,theres no harm in being excited right?!!!!! As the wheels of the aircraft touched the runway and I closed my book 'Women of the Tagore household' by Chitra Deb, i realized that the guy sitting next to us(who was quite perturbed with the landing..!) was praying and i think he kicked the seat in front quite a few times unknowingly(in fear basically..!)!for which the aunty in front scolded him...!  I looked at my dad and we both smiled and somehow after turning red with giggles and scaring the people staring at me who sure thought that i've escaped from some asylum I controlled myself and thought "I seriously need some laughter management therapy..!"... I remember the first ti

I don't like it when people judge their friends by the number of past relationships they've had or the mistakes they've made in it... Coming from a girls school I have often heard and been a part of such conversations were we used to bitch about how some X always comes up with a new boyfriend every month or some Y is in a relationship with an ugly or bad natured person or that some Z has done it all with her bf.. I know these are typical school girl conversations but it was seriously fun having them with friends...But sometimes it's because of these conversations that we fail to understand a beautiful part of relationships and friendship.. How many times have you judged a friend when she/he told you about how he/she dumped someone or got into a relationship soon after breaking up or about how he/she loves someone desperately and does all that he/she can not caring whether its right or wrong to get that person??  I have judged friends often for these reasons but it&
