Rakshbandhan

Today my facebook is full of wishes for Rakshabandhan.....and I am just loving it as reminds me of all my Rakshabandhans ......I can clearly remmber each and every Rakshabandhan we have celebrated so far....and many many more to come...love u bhai. Each year has its own memories.....as i clearly remm celbrating rakhee in 2007 ...my brother was here and my sister was in Delhi and we celebrated it over skpye (thnxs to Alok) ohh..it was sooo fun. Me tying rakhee here to my brother and my sister virtually....and ofcourse how can i forget 2008....the year i got sooooo many gifts as we had an addition to the family..Shilpa, my brothers wife, she got soooo many gifts for me..and trust all which i had in my wish-list which were untold....
Going further back...i remm in 2005 my brother had specially flew from Bangalore to Pune for Rakhee and it was on the same day as his birthday....oh that year my parents too were there...we had soo much of fun....did miss my sister.
Going ever more further back....i remm we were in school and my brother hated tying rakhee especially the big decorated ones...so we used to go shopping for the simplest rakhee and when we used to tie him he used to open it atonce as he didn't like wearing it to school. for which he used to get scolding from parents toooo....that was one part and the other was the monetary one which my sister has mentioned it very beautifully in her blog http://www.alwaysvicotrious.blogspot.com/
Going even down i remmber our granny used to tie us sisters also rakhee saying that rakhee is for every relationship and not only for brother-sister. its for all relatioship that cares n protects n loves...so very true. miss u dadimaa
going even further down our very first rakhee as brother n sister....don't exactly remm it but do have a picture of it which says all...he is busy eating mangoes and we are tying him rakhee....Wish this year too i could physically be there...but i m happy as my brother n sister are always by my side....
As  shall also take this opportunity to thank my sister who has proved over n over time and again that she is the eldest and the biggest bro in the house toooo. She has alwyas taken us as her responsibilty and never uttered a word and always done her best...she is always doing for us n others without saying anything....taking as her commitment towards us. 
Love u Sona n appu :) always

Addiction

I always wonder why do I play farmville and what has it that has got me addicted to it. Always have been giving everyone different reasons. I always tell myself its a waste of time and I lose on lots of things when I sit to play farmville. It all just started with a friend of my mine who was in need of a neighbour and then my hubby(he likes this way) got hooked to it and so joined him. Then he raced and I too and then finally one day he left it abruptly but I continued as I just couldn't. Many of my friends started to leave farmville and I always wondered how could they leave..I am still wondering. Yesterday night as always before going to sleep was checking my farmville and my hubby said you are still playing this. I was like Yes. He said I thought you would stop this since you have found a new passion. I was like I will leave it...but will take some time. Today morning when I got up in the morning the first thing I checked on my laptop was my blogspot and not farmville. I am happy. But then there i went again and opened another window and started farmville. And after playing for couple of minutes I stopped myself and said lets write something on this. I believe lots of people must have written on this topic farmville so i just wanted to write about my addiction.

Today I also read my sisters blog. I always knew she is a very good writer and she writes even lovely poems. I still remember one of her earlier poems which started as " You are my startlight"  She is very good with words and she always expresses herself more clearly when she writes. She too created a blogspot today, I know its preety late for her, but so wat better late than never. We can follow on www.alwaysvicotious.blogspot.com.  Whenever I want to write an invitation or a thank you note or that matter anything I always depend on my sister. And Of course Shilpa too being the new in the family. She is also very good. She did fill the first school application form of Avik. I hope Shilpa too starts her blog. It would be great connecting on blogspot. I am loving this place. ITs encouraging me to write more and more

I used to always feels in the corner of my heart as to why can't I write. Is it because I don't like reading and can't use big words or phrases. Possible yes. But now I have decided to write everyday something and to start reading too. Which I shall do. Ahmen.

Today after thinking about this for such a long time....most of my friends and my ex-colleagues they all blog and had been also thinking about getting into it but somehow I was just not able to manage time or should i say i always felt that i was never meant to write. Had been bad in academics all throughtout...should not say bad...i was average. Whenever I used to think about the idea of blogging I used to feel I am just not meant for it or what will people say. As I had/ have never been good with words.

Today I am writing still thinking as to why am I writing. I just finished watching a movie "Julia vs Julie". Just loved this movie. Just finished this movie a couple of minutes back and I sat down on my laptop and created an account for myself and here i m writing.

Both my sons today also for the first time slept on their own....gosh they are growing pretty fast. So may things are going on my mind right now and I want to write everything down. I am really getting excited about it. Really can't think as to what to write first. Really don't know the writing manners to write a blog. but it has made me today sit on the laptop and I am writing my first blog.


My sister and my dad always encouraged me to read and write but somehow i never did it. Earlier i used to say that i am not interested and later didn't have time. My sister used to tell me to blog atleast about movies and food which i am really interseted in. But this time when my brother visited me he told me that one always has time it just that we have to prioritise our daily stuff and do them accordingly. And that really hit me and made me think and have started to manage time. Hope I am able to continue and do more and more things.

Let me talk about the movie which made me sit today finally to blog. The movie was great with my favourite actress and th e topic too was my favourite Food " Bon Apetit" Loved it...after a very long time saw a movie completely without pausing once. Meryl steep as always was at her very best and so was Amy Adams. I am really inspired to do somemore great cooking. Though I love Indian and Italian cooking more than other but would definitely try french cooking now eapecially beef bourguignon recipe with a little twist of chicken instead of beef. Movie was overally very well made with no flaws that I could see of and it was very engrossing too. Felt nice when the movie ended wish it would have been a little more longer. I am really feeling very nice expressing myself but feeling that I am too excited about it and I am repeating myself. but i guess thats how i am. I had got this movie almost 2 months from netflix but had not got time to watch and today finally watched it. Still in my trans don't have much words to write. 


Finally my kids are up now gotto go but promise myself to return back again soon.
