I joined one of the leading MNC’s as an Analyst. I felt a sense of pride as my new shiny black heels made a click clack sound on the spotless shiny floors. Mom had bought me a new “HideDesign” handbag as a gift. I looked around as I walked towards my desk. The corner offices… Continue reading Luxuries of working #AtoZChallenge #BlogchatterA2Z

One thing that made my life wholesome was the bunch of few people whom I identified as friends and they meant the world to me. I do not have many friends, in fact I always prefer being alone and I had 2 of my besties right under my roof- Mom and Dad. Hence I seldom… Continue reading Karmic Connection #AToZChallenge #BlogchatterA2Z

I am single. All around me, I see couples, hand in hand, some with an extra ounce of PDA (Public Display of Affection) and here I am with a bunch of friends or with Mummy and Daddy. I sometimes wonder- where is he? The special one who would make my heart flutter and make me… Continue reading Just love #AtoZChallenge #BlogchatterA2Z

The boards are over- what a sigh of relief. But now begins the real battle to get into a good college. As I look at my name on the Merit List, a sense of pride envelops me. I look back at the years of hard work and disciplined approach that I followed and loved doing.… Continue reading I am a big girl out in the big bad world #AtoZChallenge #BlogchatterA2Z

I fell head over heels in love with Raj when I was 13. Life seemed like a fairytale. He was the new boy in our class – what I loved the most were his dimples. When he threw up his head and laughed, those dimples looked so gorgeous. I was tempted to go and touch… Continue reading Heartbreak #AtoZChallenge #BlogchatterA2Z

I got my first period when I was 11. It wasn’t a shock to me as I knew about periods when I was 4. One day  I saw Mumma take out a pad from the cupboard and walk towards the bathroom. “What is that?” A curious 4 year old asked. Grandma was sitting nearby. She… Continue reading Growing up #AtoZChallenge #BlogchatterA2Z

School days are supposed to be the most memorable days of one’s life. But at this point, going to school doesn’t really make me happy. And its got nothing to do with studies or exams. In fact I am someone who loves to study, not all subjects of course. I dread Math and don’t really… Continue reading Friends and Foes #AtoZChallenge #BlogchatterA2Z

My mother tongue is Marathi and Kannada – one is My Dad’s and the other my Mom’s. But if mother tongue is defined as the language one first learns to speak and the language one is most comfortable with, for me thats English. Mommy Daddy spoke to each other in English- that was the language… Continue reading English Vinglish #AtoZChallenge #BlogchatterA2Z

As an infant, I gave sleepless nights to Mommy and Daddy as I was always hungry, my appetite just couldn’t be satiated. The more Mommy fed me her milk, the more hungry I would get and refused to sleep. One night I cried my lungs out and turned tomato red by 5 am. A panicky… Continue reading Decoding the Milky mystery#AtoZChallenge #BlogchatterA2Z

I did not hear the hushed whispers and some loud guffaws when Mommy Daddy were not around- the topic was the colour of my skin. A dusky girl in India is doomed for its very difficult to find a suitable groom for her. Imagine, here I was lying in my crib, a day old and… Continue reading Colour Coded #AtoZChallenge #BlogchatterA2Z
