Smile and frown - choose the wrinkles you want

I smile a lot, several times more than I cry or frown. I would not take botox injections to hide my wrinkles. I frown at times.

Smiles are infectious - it excercises your facial muscles. It enhances your look. Do you need more reasons to smile? I even manage to wear a plastic smile when I am forced to smile in certain circumstances.

Frown gets yu wrinkles beneath your eyes and forehead. Last day, I saw a middle-aged woman on train. She already had wrinkles but what I noticed that majority of them were frown wrinkles. She was frowning constantly and speaking continously to her fellow traveller. I must say - she was a beautiful woman with all worng types of wrinkles.

Frown wrinkles make you ugly.

Smile wrinkles encourage others to have a smile wrinkle.

However, still if you prefer to get a botox injection - yu end up looking like a stretched cat - which is more ghastly.

Choose your wrinkles - Choose to Smile or Frown :)

Crying continously for two days can led to a weight loss of upto 1 kg and keep the pimples at bay. Tried and tested.

Nearing Anniversary

I am about to survive an year of marital bliss;

In this year, apart from the love and understsnding part, we survived a post-marriage scroching summer, a deadly trek, tons of fight, and cooking experiments.

I survived the local train and the blah blahs for two hours a day, a dumb and deadlly bus travel for three months, insomnia for almost six months or above, sore throat, frequent colds, a boil on my leg.

I got lots of lessons on patience and patience.

This year was a snail pace in my career, eventhough the working environment was cool cool.

I got to act funnier and clumsier than last year.

A musical chair game @ office - which i will never forget

Didn't make a lot of friends - but I made a few good ones - life-long types

Yatch party, trek...

Bitching was less compared to last year - I usually bitch when i am frustrated with someone :-/

My husband was supportive, eventhough we had the squabbles that made me cry; but everytime i learn a new lesson of life. I occasionally cribbed and whined abt this fast life - however its almost reduced to being negligibly smaller than a mustard.

I tried socializing, but it was in vain - the hard truth: I CAN'T SOCIALIZE unless the opponent is equally mad as me or at least entertains the madness in me!

Looking forward to a new year with more to offer!

Missing mother

Everyday I realise the harder way that noone can love me as you
You are so unconditional
Teach me to be like you..
I miss you every time
I am scared of that day when I will have to live without you.
You are like my soul, my life and I love you more than any other possessions I have
I am lucky because I am your daughter
When I look up to you, I just feel that I see myself
There is nothing in this whole world which I would not want to tell you
I always crave for you mother, more than any child...
I am sad that I can't take out time and come to you
The time you take for me
The love that you give me
I am thankful always
You love pulls me thru this dirt and I just have no words to express my love and thankfullness to you.
I wish that I would be born as your daughter the next life, if I have one...
Thanks for taking care of me....I love you mother more than anyone

Insanity

I dont mind behaving insanely if I can bring a smile on your face :)
Insanity is bliss cos' you are ignorant of being sane
You are ignorant of troubles
You are ignorant of being caged as normal
You are ignorant of being well-behaved
I would love to be insane if my insanity makes you happy :D

Cough that kills..

Summer has started in Mumbai after a long Winter.

My throat and head started paining. Climate changes affect me first. The horrendous throat pain ended and I got a bad cough. Everytime I coughed, I felt that I am going to cough my heart out. The first week was painful. Then, the cough became dry and continous and i was coughing and finding difficult to breathe

I tried Benadryl at nights for soothing my throat and to sleep.
Kanthika (YOGI) everytime i started my cough, i popped one pellet in, suggested by my bay mate Anitha; in fact, she was too good to me inspite of my continous coughing spells.
Matt got me Robittussin (the best cough syrup in the world) :P
Faisal felt pity on me and got me two vicks tablets one evening when i was coughing my head out
I gargled with hot saline water twice or thrice
I stopped eating fruits :(
I ate idlis for breakfast and bread afternoon; stayed away from spicy and oily foods
I met the doc in my neigbouring building - he gave me a set of three tablets to have three times a day for two days. It worked.
Five Sleepless nights - Thanks to my husband for bearing the incessant coughing spells
Before going to sleep, I had turmeric, pepper powder and honey mixed with hot milk.I had Pankaja Kasthuri every time I coughed at home
One week later and I am free :) Back to blogging!

Coughs are suffocating!!!!
