The child in me is still alive!


Recently, when I found a tube of fevicol the first thing I did was applied some on all my fingers.This is something a lot of Indian kids in school experiment with.After it dries up it peels off like dead skin.
The joy of peeling skin off your hand is glorious.
The joy of buying cheap ice candy and yummies(tangy fried waffers just for Rs 2) is something I enjoy doing even today.
Some priceless joys of life that never change!:)

I am leaving on a jet plane!


:) Even when I am 65 and teeth less leaving on a plane to get home will
put a smile on my face.There is nothing half so pleasant as coming home again.

Sun dog



On a peaceful (read sleepy afternoon) in lab,Rich came screaming into the lab.He said he had spotted a Sundog.Yes a sundog!!The entire battalion in the lab got up and walked out feverishly to see what he was talking about.Not knowing what to expect, we walked out of the door and set our imagination run wild.Hmmm... maybe its an orange dog or a bird or a fancy car.He pointed at the sky and said there it is!All I could see was the sun shinning in all his glory.
If this was his idea of a joke, I had half the mind to give him a piece of my mind!
Then when i strained my eyes and watched closely I could see a rainbow around the sun.
A circular array of colors around the sun.It was an unusual sight.
It is bright spots of light in the sky, often on a luminous ring on either side of the sun.
Yawn!!back to work.

Loved the imagination and the vision involved.The colors and the effects used were remarkable.

A string of events!


Never had so much fun falling ever before in my life!I tried my hand on skiing.
I fell and got up very well knowing that I was gonna fall again.It is an art of training the
brain to trust your instincts and understand the physics behind the way a ski works.
My skiing mission started off as a been here done that mission ,but I know I am gonna go back and try it again and again.BTW 'Happy 2010',Hope this year brings a lot of joy and warmth.
Looking back at the year 2009 all I can say is it has been an eventful year.I know my
likes and dislikes a little better than the previous year.I am curious to find out what 2010 has to offer.
This is what one of my friends had to say about the new year :
"So another year passes ... What does that have to do with anything? You're basically the same person you were yesterday (maybe slightly more hung over) ... Basically I'd just like to live each day better than the day before.
