Dedication to June 9 2005..

So this one is dedicated to that very special day.. June 9th 2005 . The day that the class of 2005, moi included (hehe) graduated from The American University of Sharjah. The day that marked the beginning of an entire new journey in our lives.A moment of joy and pride..! Not to forget, this is also dedicated to all of those people in my life at A.U.S. who made it worthwhile!

Today, 2 years later,I watch the class of 2007 walk and I still feel the rush of excitement that i felt when i first set foot on the stage. I still feel the urge of wanting to break free, the urge to shout out.. I'VE DONE IT!! Tears fill up in my eyes as i remember quite vividly, that day and the days that led to our graduation!.

4 years of fun, laughter,sadness,pain,sleepless nights, anxiety, romance ( yes that included!), fear, anticipation and more... most importantly... 4 years of hard work. Today, i want to thank so many people for making it happen. Of course parents come first.. and i thank them for giving me the best at all times, including my education at A.U.S. But how can i forget my friends, who got me thru those 4 years, making it so memorable.
So here i go, 5 of the most important people who made it extra special for me.. if ive left anyone out.. its simply coz people complain i write long blogs* wink*

Our first graduation is always going to hold a very special place in our hearts... 20 years from today.. when we look back.. we shall smile.. remember the good ol dayz.. and feel proud that we graduated from A.U.S on a sunny thursday morning in 2005! :)


So this is for the class of 2005..... WE ROCK!! :)

Thoughts... thoughts.. thoughts...

When you least expect it, something in your life happens and it takes a turn... yea ok so its good coz you need suspense in life.. but what if the turn is so shocking that your mind does not have the time to come up with a counter active plan???????? It always happens.. yet somehow.. we, or should i say I .. dont learn! Call me a bad student wen it comes to the teachings of life!!

Being the only child, i have and still do give utmost important to friends... and always felt.. i was doing the right thing.. till about a few months back...( for those of you hoping for a nerve racking story.. no nothing MAJOR happened... just incidents here and there that made me feel.... family comes first... :) )Yes, thats one of the teachings of life, ive actually engraved in ma brain. However close you are to someone, however family-like they tend to be... the truth is.. they are NOT family! At the end of the day, mom n dad and their love and concern outbeat the rest of the world. Late but still.. better late than never to understand that. Sometimes friends can influence you... when you dont even realize it.. and suddenly one fine morning... you feel so different from the real person that you are. You tend to go with the flow.. forgetting that there may be no control on the flow. Its such a high to flow down a waterfall... as soon as you realize that the flow is too fast for you.. its too late and you dont have control on your movement!!!

The past few months ive been feeling... different.. different from the real me. I know life's taken a fast pace but ive lost control.. and i admit to having lost control. The good thing is... im still at the stage where the flow is manageable and so i can swim towards the shore and save myself from drowning. The sad bit is... it took me quite sometime to realize that i was loosing myself. It took me time to understand that i had been in wrong waters... it took me time to understand that im different to the people around me.. and in order to stand out.. i didnt need to go along with them.. i just needed to be myself...
its soo hard and honestly is very hard... to carve your own niche in today's world. you gotta either go with the flow.. or have the courage to face whatever comes your way. 90% of thepeople..( statistics are unknown) tend to chose the easier way out and go with the flow... coz they are easily accepted into the society. The 10% that have the courage to keep their thoguhts, ideas, values, morals intact.. face the bombardment of trouble bullets.. yet tend to survive on firm grounds... weak fall... strong stand out winnerz! the choice is to be made.. a self made choice.. for which we need to take responsibility. Here, i do... take complete responsibility for fallin trap to the swirling winds of wrongdoing/wrong thinking.
An arm's length principle needs to be used in life... with relationships... or so i belive... keep every one .. at an arm's length ... do not let them enter that personal bubble of yours.. however tempted you may feel to bring them close to you. Whatever happens, let the insticntive feeling pass.... it wud do you good if you just control that feeling and let is go. Soon you will realize how easy it is to live a life......... sans unnecessary attachment.

Yes, ive come to abhor attachments of any sort... whether its family ( minus mom n dad) ... or friends.. or acquaintances... its soo nerve racking... and at the end of the day.. it hurts.. it hurts to let one person get into your personal bubble, hoping they would respect that decision of yours.. and value your judgement of doing so. Its such sadistic behaviour,coz you know it will hurt, yet you do it!!! Now if that aint sadistic behaviour..what is?

By knowing a person for years on end.. does it mean you really know them? Ive come to find out that by having a person in your life for a long time , need not mean, you know the person ....... sometimes.. people who have been in your life... for a short time span.. tend to understand you more than those that have been with for donkeyz years! :)
Human relationships are so wierd.. they have such a significant start.... but many relationships do not have a clear end.... they just linger.. till soemthing happens... displacement of feelings location change/marriage/death/work/ u name it... something significant to lose touch. These days that's harder since we can constantly keep in touch due to the various telecommunication systems... !


Im at an age where the eternal nightmare is that one big question of... MARRIAGE... why is it such an issue? I shiver when i think of it... once upon a time i used to imagine marriage with rose tinted glasses... now ................. nightmare is an understatment of describing the thought. I do not mind marriage... maybe sometime in my life.. but Now.. is just not right in my head. Especially knowing i do not have that Special person that i want to really spend my life with. Should i settle with someone becasue he is better than the worst i can get? What if i get hitched to a completely wrong person? Yes divorce exists... but i want the ever lasting one.. not the ....... divorce one! It is a true blessing to get married to the person you love and who loves u ( hoping its just one person! :)) its a blessing to marry that person who has seen you thru the ups and downs... the person who has been with you thru thick and thin. It sure is a great feeling ( or so i blive.. ) but what if that person is not perfect in other people's eyez? you may ask, why should it bother others? its you who needs to live with the other person............ but thats how it works.. society rules... even in such a forward world... society dictates terms and conditions of good and bad/ right and wrong. Does it really make sense to marry someone you hardly know? Then again i feel... love marriages do not last as long as arranged marriages... coz you already know the person for long!
Love marriage: you know the person for long... by the time you get married.. uve already spent the initial days of knowing this person.. after marriage.. ur living it... there's no spark as such to ignite more fire... or mayb there is?? inital excitement ... not much... few years.. baby born... father mommy job... and so goes the story.
Arranged marriage: hardly know the person.. takes about 3 years to know the person creating sparks left right and center... by then the child is born.. and you're busy doing the mother and father job... and so goes life..
Just a thought... not a rule! so.... which is better? which is safer? what if you do not find that perfect person to love? Should you wait around? or should you abide and go for arranged marriages?

For ever still.. the question lingers... mayb none will ever come up with a solution to marriage... ( yes it is an unanswereable puzzle of life!) and so i give up trying to depuzzle it! All i know is... my age is scaring me............ its like my life is sittin at the edge of a cliff.. one wrong move... and thats it!

But i have hope... hope that if life makes a bad turn, it balances out by making a good turn giving us a joyride for a while! and so i wait... patiently... geared up for my joyride! :)

Global Day..








In with the new, out with the old.. guess thats how it goes! So yesterday i went back to my kingdom... :) My uni... for global day. The day that made me part of the A.U.S community, the day i was able to prove my talents, the day that i felt like family with the rest of my batch mates, the day that brings back vivid , colourful, lively, energetic, sparky, joyful, musical, beautiful memories, the day that still remains dear and near to me............for years to come.

Global day, is an event that takes place once everyear at our uni. It's held on 2 days (though its global day.. its actually 2 days!!.. bleh).. yes so its held on 2 days.. . its where students from different cultures, different countries get together and represent their country mainly in 2 forms... firstly on stage, where students get together and put up a show, a skit and/or a dance and secondly by building up stalls for their countries... something like what happens during global village.. Its a hugeeeeeee event that everyone looks forward to during the course of the year. Preparations take place months ahead for the much awaited event. This event not only brings colour on campus but also creates a dynamic exuberant atmosphere, where students are able to interact, have fun and also get to know each other. This event is most appreciated by the freshmen, who are able to meet their sophomores, juniors and seniors and get along. Some sort of orientation, sort of speak! :)
I remember, when i first took part in global day, i hardly knew anyone, and 2 days later.......... i knew most of the people walkin on campus. It's inexplicable, the feeling you have while taking part in global day... something that you can really cherish over the years... guess its one of those events where you just have to live it... to feel it :)



So, got on campus yesterday, and oh my god.. the nostalgia.. wowwwwwwwwwwwwww! Human brains can really recreate past images so clearly.. its amazing! Just driving there was soo much fun, rembered those days when i had to zoom to the uni to complete a project before submitting it in the morning.. the days i had to drive like crazyy to get to class on time...... and find no parking! :) Those were the crazy days...

I went in to watch the show, and i guess probably coz i was part of the stage once upon a time, everything i saw, i looked at it with critisicm.. i know i shouldnt, but its hard not to. Once you know the quality of work you have done was much appreciated, its hard not to judge. I do give credit for the efforts put in by the current students, but its hard to accept them completely!
And the stalls.. well... i remember working day and nite... to build the stall and make it seem great... and what i saw yesterday.. well.. lets just say.. it really struck the wrong chord in my head.

But all said and done, i realized that with time, things change, the way people look at things change, the way people work changes and the best way is to try and understand the flow and move with it, if it doenst deviate much from your own beliefs....
its best not to judge too much and appreciate the efforts put into the whole thing..... and so.......... i guess ... it went well yesterday..!

Life = uncertainity??

Once in a while i drift off into those moods.. where you feel like ur living 2 lives, feeling 2 or more things at the same time for 2 different reasons, unable to focus on what is really happening.. it's odd i tell u... life..... can it be another name for uncertainity? Possibly...

What's the fun in knowing whats going to happen tomrrow? What's the point of knowing how long you will live? What is the point of knowing what mistakes you are going to make.. and how you are going to make amends for them? A life that is completely planned out, each step, each minute, each moment, each feeling... scripted out and placed in your hands... "You cant make any changes to it.. but you ought to act according to each and every line placed on that script!!"... Seems like a nightmare to me....
I enjoy the straight road, the curved path, the mountainous rides, the highs , the lows, oh how i hate hieghts, nevertheless..i take absolute pleasure in the bumpy rollercoaster life ride! :) ....

The rides can be so tiresome and strenous that you forget the essence of uncertainity. Ex: when an uncle falls ill, you hate not knowing whether he will be alright or whether he wont survive..( yes thats a dramatic example.. but even drama is based on real life .. isnt it?) ... how come we dont.. or how come I dont appreciate uncertainity then? Why are we humans so double minded on everything ...?

Though i say life is filled with surprises ( good and bad.. wait.. can surprises be bad too? hmm..!!) .. i do belive.. there is that part of our life.. that we have full control over.
Many times in life, we use "it just happened"to cover up for our mistakes or things we notice yet push aside as unnoticed. Feelings that we feel, can be justified as.. it just happened.. but.. did it JUST HAPPEN? do DID WE WANT IT TO HAPPEN? ... ???

There is always 2 parts of you ( like in those cartoons where the devil guy sits on one shoulder and the cupid/angel guys sits on the other and both of them argue as to which decision is correct!) ... when making a decision. The part that talks to you clear and loud is usually the one that is the best option to take, yet we have this mechanism, wherein we lower the volume( as per our convenience) of the correct voice ( sort of speak!) and use our internal speakers to boost the volume of the voice that gives us momentary pleasure/happiness/pride etc ( basically the quick way out!)... So we make ourselves belive that "oh look.. the wrong decision is actually the right decision"and paste a smile on our faces and step into shit! :) (I know i express myself in an unusual manner.. but as i say.. unusual is the usual way people understand ...!) ..
Some of us.. after having taken the step into the deep stinky shit, have the courage to come out of it and take complete responsibility for the mess... certain others.. prefer to look around.. swat the flies( of course with displeasure and with total irritation) and ultimately blame others or cover ass by justifying it with "it just happened.. i dont even know how...!"


Funnily enough, i've noticed that those who bother to take responsibility end up having to face many shitty situations.. while the ass coverers ( as i shall refer to them from now on).. get it the easy way. They seem to climb the ladder.. ( ladder of life.. corporate ladder.. ladder of success etc) faster than the others...
What i would like to find out.. sooner or later.. is whether these people make it big and stay big? or do they make it big.. and then fall...?? Not that i take pleasure in people's misery.. but i would definately like to find out if hardwork and courage pay out in the long run!!


Honesty is not something people give priority to, these days, if you admit that you have made a mistake, most likely you will suffer grave consequences... which can negatively effect you..( yes i agree the effect can be negative or positive depending on the way you take it.. but still...) It makes me sad... no.. sad.. is not the right word.. it disturbs me... how the world is becoming so globalized yet see things with such narrow perspective... its a complete contradiction .. i feel!

Oh well... i guess.. we will just have to wait and watch who will win the game of honesty vs asscoverers..!! :)
Till then............. we shall ponder... :)

DiL ChAhTa Hai...!!(My heart wishes...)




My heart wishes, that these glittery/glorious days never end... My heart wishes,that i/we never stay without my/our dearest friends .. !
Does it sound familiar? For the Indians who remember the song, dil chahta hai.. kabhi nah bheetey chamkeeley din... ohhhh.. dil chahta hai.. hum nah rahey kabhi yaaron ke bin! :) Remember?

Sigh.. its really interesting how songs( and other things such as places,smells, objects, weather... to name a few) .. can take you back into those glorious years of your life.. where things seemed so perfect, so planned, so right! :) Why do i begin with this you may ask? Well...I saw the the movie "Dil Chahta Hai"on tv today, and it took me back 6 years... when i first joined uni for my undergrad. How lively i was, how free i felt( in a wierd way.. considering i had alot of restrictions placed on me then by my parents as compared to now! but still.. that seemed like heaven.. even today!) ... thinking back.. i feel so happy about my days...
I remember i joined university, was soo skeptical about it coz i really wanted to go abroad for my undergrad as all my other friends were off to Canada or the States... i felt so alone, felt so left out due to that. Hated the fact that i was joining some wierd university in Sharjah!! But you know what? I always say.. things happen.. and they happen only for the best.. and till date.. i stand by my words.
There have been times, i thoguht that life was unfair.. ( i still think that once in a while).. i have thought that things happening to me shouldnt have been happening to me... but the best part is... all that.. though slow and painful.. taught me a lot in life.. taught me how to be patient for results that will change your perspective of life , taught me how to believe in myself, taught me how to value relationships, taught me how to deal with situations that seem impossible to tackle ... ! I gained a lot... and regrets??? NONE! :)



A.U.S.. has given me 4 years of beautiful, painful, sweet, tough, crazy memories that shall remain ever so dear to my heart. Thank you dad n mom, for sending me there.. for being the best parents ever!! :)

CUT IT!!!...emotional talk is over.. ... THE END... for now :P

Xpresss....... out and running...!


Hurrah.. im cover page material.. ( yea rite!) .. so finally the product of the never ending photoshoot that took place on Saturday was uncovered this morning via XPRESS.. the new free tabloid issue launched by Gulf News... and guess who's on front page? Yes mes dames et monsieurs.. its Jalebi the great...!!

Out of the million and one pics that they took, in which amillion of them were of me smiling, they ended up sticking up the one pic in which i look frustrated to be standing amongst others!! As someone called up and said " Hey saw ur pic in the paper, you look so unhappy to be an Indian!!".............. damn them all!!!!!! When somehting can go wrong.. it just HAS to go wrong with me!! .. and I AM DAMN PROUD IM AN INDIAN.. !! So.. NO. im nottttttttttt frustrated with my nationality.. i was frustrated with the photoshoot!!! Sigh.. who am i trying to convince here?? :(

So ya it doenst matter really... im still on coverpage of a tabloid.. which is so kewl. lolz... and the pic inside was much better...:) yipeee.. nothing to complain about i guess. The article.. well it was not as kAbooM as expected. For a cover page pic.. and story.. it was really quick and breezy... if you know wat i mean. Though written well, i think more should have been published on thoughts and ideas regarding "home is uae"topic. But whats done is done.. finito.. so its all good.... overnight ive become a superstar!..In my office.. i have people coming up to me going "How did u manage that? ... autograph.. please.. on my chest!"... yes .. that is true.. chest was the word that was used.. what can i say? i have a very happening office..!! :)

The whole day i recieved phone calls from people who managed to get their hands on the paper and recognized that it was me standing there with my lille indian flag. Funny thing was when i decided to check my orkut account... a random guy.. who had messaged me asking for friendship agez back( ahuh its friendship he asked for!!)... was back scrapping me ... lets c... .. how can i phrase it...hmm.. "hey.. congrats.. saw u on the xpress paper amongst the expatriate crowd. Thanks to orkut i recognized you!"....... were the guy's exact words!!!... Talk abt being popular.. Mish.. yo.. gal.. youve made me a STARRRRRRRRR! lolz.. good or bad.. i dont know.. star nonetheless.. *hug hug * to you! :) Now you can leave gulf news in peace... uve done a good deed! lolz....

Sometimes i do feel like i write this blog just for Mish.. my sole inspiration to start blogging! So for you my dear.. i dedicate most of my blogs.. lolz! :)

I ended up with a sore throat this morning.. so im sipping my hot cuppa tea and writing this blog.. and im thinking... there are sooooooooooooooooooooo many papers,tabloids,magazines out there.. how much material must they gather to write so many stories to actually be able to publish them? i mean.. is there soo much in the world to talk about? Then it clicked me... adverts to the rescue... 50% or more , of the contents in the paper are actually adverts... !! So has news become so commercialized? I mean, i thought it was initialized for people to know what's happening in the world, keep them informed/updated with day to day happenings in other parts of the world.... but these days.. news seems to be revolving around celebrities/sports people/ and random stories of dogs getting married to trees!
I do realize that people need something eye catching so that they read the paper but does eye catchy necessarily mean things that really dont make any sense?? Ive seen that sometimes a text is strategically worded in a way that the readers tend to assume the rest of the story....
Is that a positive sign? Or a negative one? hmm.. makes me wonder...

Ah well... that was a thought i had ...

Lets move on to another thought.. totally random.. which of these is better? 1) Going for further studies leaving the country, for a recognized degree and loosing touch with the market and with possible contacts in the market? or 2) Living in the area, working while others pursue their higher studies, building a rapport and gainging experience in the market and later on deciding to take up.. or mayb never take up.. a qualified degree?? well both have their pros and cons , but of course, thats the way life works, but still... which option seems to benefit people today?
In this dynamic world, if you stay back a second to tie your shoelace, you risk the chance of losing your job/ your major opportunity to make it big. Within seconds another person has moved up the ladder, taking the position that you could have had, if it werent for the blastid shoelace ( no im not promoting shoes without laces...!!) ... Is this a sign of a developing market? or is this a sign of a developed market that is reaching saturation point???????? What happens when the bubble bursts? Do let me know your thoughts on this one...

Keep thinking.. and i shall be back with more newssssssss !
Cheerioooooooooooooooo!

~Spice Island~


*Burp*.. ahh excuse me.. i know its rude.. but in some cultures they say burping is a perfect sign of satisfaction and appreciation for the food that you just ate.. so for time being im from that culture! lolz

Im in one of those moods these days... the mood to try out different kinds of food.... last to last week my friend and i went to Thai Kitchen at the park hyatt hotel in dxb... and well.. the ambience was awesome i must say... and the place is quite.. umm.. how can i put it? well.. the best suitated word would be .. romantic.. ( ok.. its not ga ga goo goo time.. its just meant for illustrative/supporting adjective purpose~!)... the weather was great and it had this modern arabic souq feel to the place. For those of you who have ever taken THM101/102 at A.U.S ( American Univeristy of Sharjah) would know how we all pictured some evenings in Al-Andalus maybe? Well, lets just say the whole place reminded me of that! Well done i have to agree.
Coming to the food... well.. service .. good... servings.. bad... why bad? well my hand curved like a bowl can hold more curry than they provided for 2 people!!! we asked for this shrimp dish and we got 2.. ONLY 2 BIG FAT PRAWS IN A TINY SIZED BOWL.. and guess how much that thing was priced at?? AED46./- and that my frineds.. is a total rip off! Servings were really small, food wasnt that awesome.. infact it wasnt as enjoyable as the Thai food ive eaten at this place called Lemon Grass..( location: close to lamcy plaze in dxb) and the prices.. well.. you can just imagine.. !! So .. one down.. i decided.. No goin to Thai kitchen again!!!

Come this week and i decide.im in experiement mood again.. and so i call my friend.. and fix up our experimental dinner date .. this time at Spice Island located at the Renaissance hotel in dxb...
One of our other friends joined us.. and off we went to try and taste exotic food.. ( spice island does sound quite exotic dones it?? )

Ok.. to cut to the chase.. the food was really really good. Its ambience its well done, got the exotic touch, service was more than satisfactory, food was really good.. worth every penny i paid for it.. ( yes, i paid for it.. i felt soo good paying !.. yes imwierd i know!) ...
Food : full of variety... chinese, japanese, mongolian, indian, italian, mexican, salads, soups, desserts ... buffet system.. though i think they do have a set menu option as well...
Price: AED 135 per head.. for buffer minus the alcohol.

I think its a good place to take your frineds/family once ina while.. and an even better place to take collegues or partners ( for meeting purposes etc) ..

Ohh.. the exciting bit of the day.. i drove a Nissan Patrol.. init kool? A woman driving a BIG HUGE NISSAN PATROLLLLLLLL.. i felt so local ( arab local ) .. but well minus the rash driving.. coz i belive im a pretty decent driver.. (if u get rid of the eternal swearing.. as i feel all the darn slow drivers end up rite in front of me.. !!.. DAMN DEM ALL!!)... Driving that car was pretty nice.. a change from my Honda CRV..
The steering steers like butter.. real smooth.. of course a powerful car.. and drives soo smoothhhhhhhh.... no wonder these arabs take them around.. also considering i can do the desert drive.. i need to do that someday.. :) wat say you people? Woman and dessert driving... idea is chique? ahh well wateva...

hmm.. I guess that was all for today....... nothing majorly exciting happening.. and so i shall end the story for the night...
eat well , drink well ( it cud be just water you know!), sleep well..!!
Gnite amigos.. Bon soir... !
