Dedicated to the thief in my hostel.

And then you lie and you bluff..

This thief has taken its toll on me..
She slipped my stuff so many times before..
My things are vanishing in front of me..
But i have no choice,I just couldn't find my stuff anymore.

Oh..Oh..Oh!!

And thanks to my friend, who took it to the next level.

Glimpses from an old diary..



I was going through a box of my old stuff  the other day and I found this old diary come scrapbook that was created a long time back. I went through its pages and found how beautifully it captivated my childhood in its crumbled pages.The cover, tells how badly I wanted to keep it out of my brother's reach, threatening him with those bold words"WATCH OUT, GIRL POWER". Obviously, he was evil like all younger brothers.


This is a special one, thanks to my best friend. We had a fight, and she gave me the cute little card, with tom and jerry. She also made a little note that said," we might be different, but we make a great pair".





Ahhh, yeah this is a little geeky because I was a BIG fan of Albert Einstein back then. I really wish I had that picture in which he sticks his tongue out.:P
Reminds me of his very famous quote,
"Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the the universe."







I couldn't really figure out this one. I sure was a complicated child.
Maybe something to do with "controlling anger".




                                      This is where i kept record of all my shooting star moments.





This was a cutout from some bridal magazine, I liked the golden swirling flowers on her.




Making motifs was something I absolutely enjoyed. The most beautiful ones were made on the last page of my notebooks during those boring classes.





Now this is what every girl has in her scrapbook, Britney, JayLo and Angelina. Wink. I wonder what is the "Apso" doing here?




The border is a funny caricature of Vishwamitra, the great saint and Menaka, the seductive apsara. Also a funny indian version of the Cupid.




Being a huge cricket enthusiast, I had to have this. That was a match to remember. India wins the T-20 worldcup!! YAY!!!





All Potter fans have this disease, and I sure was one of the biggest sufferers. This was during the release of the "The order of the phoenix". Even after reading the books more than 10 times and watching the movie over and over again, I found every little  information worth killing for, so everything pretty much made it to these pages.





This is my giant family tree.It has got everyone. I made it fun with little caricatures of everybody, not so good looking though. I also left a little place at the bottom to keep the tree updated. lol



Who doesn't love a romcom?
I know its obvious but i have to say it out loud, its my favorite. I can watch it  fifty times and cry and laugh harder(not together, because that would be crazy) everytime. Jaane tu.. Jaane tu.. ya Jaane naa!!






This was when i was about to leave for college. I was thinking about all the things I was going to miss, Ghar ka khana,  depending on my parents for everything, fighting with my brother and so much more. Those were the best days, no doubt about that.

Through my eyes..

So my previous blogger account was hacked by somebody, I didn't know people enjoyed hacking blogs. Something new.

I gave the Symbiosis National Aptitude Test the other day and now I can't stop thinking..
What will be the cutoff?
Will i make it through the merit list?
What if I don't get a valid score?
What if all my answers were wrong?...

So, in order to distract myself from the tiring process of thinking about "results", I decided to go through the works of Vincent Van Gogh(my favorite artist). I ended up looking at two oil paintings for a more than 20 minutes.Sound weird?I'll explain.

Girl in the Woods.
"Girl in the woods" caught my attention because it actually was a lot like my situation at present. I am not saying I am blogging from some a jungle right now(that would be fun by the way), but the loneliness and peace it depicts was very much what i wanted. It feels like she is in search of a path to inner peace or maybe just wanting to rest for a while in silence of the woods. Away from the world. The earthy tones conveyed how she wanted to stay connected to nature and just observe it quietly.

Starry Nights Over the Rhone
Next was the beautiful starry night. I felt like taking the rusty boat into the waters and watch the lights from the town and the sky merge together in the river. Blue( my color) is dominant and reflects the cool and tranquil mood of the picture.

I love Van Gogh's work and I am literally shocked by how some people find his paintings very kiddish because his color palette was limited and his strokes were bold, little do they know that simplicity is an unknown art that comes from within.You cannot teach it.

Absorbing the beauty through my eyes,I  finally calmed down. All the thoughts that were juggling in my head before rested in peace.
