Not only does folding paper satisfy my creative needs but it also channelizes the nervous energy I seem to be unable to contain within myself. After all turning a piece of paper into something really cool looking is any day better than twitching, fidgeting with my ring, biting off the skin around my nails, typing out long emails(??)............ hadn't been folding at all for quite a while now and when I tried to get back to it a few days back my fingers sort of betrayed me! being hyper (in more ways than one) doesn't really help you see! But a... (more) http://madsworld.blogdrive.com/comments?id=116 http://madsworld.blogdrive.com/archive/115.html Wed, 21 Feb 2007 21:57:28 GMT In a a moment of realization, it dawned upon me! The reason why I like solving Sudoku so much! it starts off clean, followed by a lot of mess, lots of possibilities! But the beauty lies in the fact that in the end, everything finds its rightful place! Everything adds up!!! :) http://madsworld.blogdrive.com/comments?id=115 http://madsworld.blogdrive.com/archive/113.html Fri, 03 Nov 2006 16:52:00 GMT 'The Alchemist' said it wrong!!! :( When you desperately want something, the world conspires to not make it happen for you!!!! http://madsworld.blogdrive.com/comments?id=113 http://madsworld.blogdrive.com/archive/112.html Mon, 30 Oct 2006 17:31:29 GMT A little over two years back when I got out of the plane and collected my bags at the Minneapolis St. Paul International Airport, I had no clue its going to be so tough bidding goodbye to this city. I still remember the impressive yet not intimidating view of Minneapolis downtown as we approached University area from the airport. The same view today makes me feel completely at home, its almost queer how I could get used to anything in such a short span. its an understatement if I say my stay in Minneapolis has been a roller coaster ride.......seen terrible lows and yet moments...

But it surprises me how difficult it is to take up again, what you had started long ago, but given up on lately! Its tough to get back to what you once were! http://madsworld.blogdrive.com/comments?id=111 http://madsworld.blogdrive.com/archive/109.html Sat, 06 May 2006 16:01:18 GMT Its been raining for the past few days and like most others rains make me nostalgic to the point of being distracted from work! Sometimes its powerful enough to lift me from the depths of gloom, making me smile, at others its spreads gloom inside me, making me weep! A thousand things come to my mind when I think of rains..... The first rain.........exams??? The fragrance of wet soil...... The joy of putting Neha and Udayan to shame by doing a better job of being a kid! :) Puddles of water ...mud all around! Wet hair...... My penchant for...

Call it my internship treat, my way of saying thanks to the people who made me feel at home in Minneapolis when I first landed here, or a sudden urge to cook big time.......whatever! I rediscovered what a joy cooking is!! :) I remember those days when I was very clumpsy yet enthusiastic about cooking, and also the days when it bugged the hell out of me because it became an everyday chore, and then also those whn it was just another thing on your list of things to be done on specific days just so you survive!! But...

I am not going to try to capture the essence of these months, lemme just start ...... :) Its been a while since I...... wrote a blog post! was genuinly happy for a looong loong stretch of time! relaxed completely and...

All caretakers with shovels as if on a mission, A transperent white sheath blocking my vision! The snow on the sloping roofs... it looks pretty and neat, The constant struggle I go though to keep myself on my feet! Funky caps, colourful gloves and the warmth of mittons, The classy trench coats with those huge buttons! The stylish scarves in a perfect knot, Those flasks with coffee simmering hot! What cosy attire from head to toes, Flushed pink faces with cherry red nose! The beauty of...
