A good solid pair of shoes!

I'm having a bad day. Got off the wrong side of the bed, and my hair just refuses to stay normal. I'm already running late when I realize that none of my formals are ironed. I have booked my pool, which will arrive at any minute at my location, expecting me to greet him on the road, little does he know that I can't find my charger. Somehow I manage to pull myself together, grab my stuff, and reach the door. Now, here is something good. I look down at my shoe rack, with my beautiful footwear stacked neatly, and I forget all about the horrible morning I have been having. I choose which one gets to go out today, tell the others I love them just as much, and leave home, for yet another struggle of a day. So, I'm not much for one with fashion and clothes but I have a weakness. Shoes! Oh my, that pretty pair of Charles and Keith kept in my cupboard do for me what no amount of ice cream or chocolate or a chick flick can. I remember the day I got them. I was having one of th

"Doing our own thing, together"

Just last night I was sitting with my friend. Both of us in living room, trying to decide on a gift for the upcoming birthday of a friend. In all of this we opened his Facebook profile and started looking at pictures, hoping something somewhere would give us a hint. And let me tell you looking through old photos on Facebook late at night with your college bestie is a mistake. Do not get sucked it. So yeah, there we are innocently looking at pictures and MTV that has been playing horrible music, suddenly decides to give us a soft background music through this, pushing us deeper down the memory lane. It hasn't even been a year since we left college, so the wound is still pretty fresh. And we got to reminiscing. Those catch phrases, those songs, which if someone starts to sing there is no going back, random nights, inside jokes, late night studying and what not. Digging up stories from the past, thing we remember, things we don't and things we pretend to remember just for the s

Would we still be friends?

We make connections with people at every stage of our life, from when we start school and have no sense what so ever to even now! Some of these relations last and stay with you while others fade away with time and become a background you might look at once in a while. The lasting of these bonds that we form has a lot to do with a combination of circumstances and the effort we put it. If either of them is off, your connection will get short. So what I have been thinking is that sometimes we find people we instantly click with and over a period of time we become close with them. What if the circumstances were to change. For example, say you made friends with people in school and then went off to college. In my case, I have changed tremendously over the last 4 years. I have matured and grown up to a lot in comparison to the pig tails girl I was back in school. So when I meet my friends from the past, it is a little hard to reconnect and get back into that track again, but it does normall

Is Polygamy Coming Back?

Hi! Long time no see! Well, it would appear as if I am talking to the readers but honestly, it is just my blog, and to be even more honest I don't even know how many people are actually reading this, so let's just save face! Yeah, so last night my two best friends and I were having random intense discussions about life, love, careers, and sex. (too bold? hmm inspired by the show Sex and the City). Well, an article titled Sex and the City with Bangalore as the Night might make for an interesting read. Ohh I am going off-topic, so let's get back. So we are just three girls who are quite different when it comes to such topics and we have our own opinions which we are casually discussing over dinner. And then this arbitrary discussion takes a turn to discuss polygamy. For as long as we have lived, in our culture and society, we have known only monogamous life. You find someone, marry them, and stay with them for the rest of your life. And things have been going prett
