One TV show that should have existed

I am not a big TV person. Maybe that's because I don't get much time for that, and also because I get bored easily so it's really hard to stick to most TV shows. But there are two TV shows that I can watch any day any time and for however long. I can do marathons of these two. You should already know the ones if you have been following me here or on my Facebook page. 

The special ones are: 
FRIENDS: I feel like I grew up with FRIENDS, and whenever it's on TV it just makes me so happy! I love all of the characters so much, and I think we all can relate to those characters so much.
Parks and Recreation: This was a recent show, and honestly I started it coz I was bored but I ended up falling in love. The show teaches you so much while making you laugh so much. I was so inspired by Leslie Knope and so much in love with all the weirdos. I still am!

BUT, that's not I wanna talk about today. 

One-TV-show-that-should-have-existed

I want to talk about a serious problem with books and movies adapted from them.
Don't you ever feel like when they make movies from books so much is lost? I think I hear a yes.

So, for another of my favorites, I think it should have been a TV show and NOT a movie. Yes friends, I am talking about my super favorite- Harry Potter. Why was it made into a movie series, where so much was unexplained and left out? Why can't they take books and make them into TV shows? Wouldn't it be so much simpler? For each book, they can make a season of the TV show and each chapter would be an episode. Doesn't that sound much simpler? And more importantly, it will do justice to the real story. There needs to be a Harry potter show. Daniel, Emma, Rupert, and everyone else need to go back in time, and be cast in that TV show.

I NEED THAT SHOW!

This will haunt me forever. Being realistic, I know it won't happen. But I really think that's how the books should be adapted- as TV shows, not movies.

Now, next on my list are the Mindy project and New girl. I have heard good reviews about them, so might give them a shot when I have some free time in few months.

    That would have been awesome! I think they tried to bank on the fact that people have short collective memories. To have a show, and have people wait around for the seasons, might not work out in their favor. Though they'd get a lot of die-hard fans. I would definitely watch.

    Yeah, I can kinda see the business point of movies making more money and all too. But, I feel it doesn't do justice to the books and the whole story.
    But, it would beat friends off my list I think.

    I feel like I may be the only person out there who has never seen Harry Potter. Am I totally crazy? Do I finally need to jump on the bandwagon?

    Oh my goodness you have spoken to my heart: I do not like the Harry Potter movies. They simply don't capture what I visualize in the books. I think it would have helped a TON if they would have waited until all the books were out before they started making the movies. There is no hiding the simple fact that the movie creators did not have the "bigger picture". A well done TV series would have been much better! An episode for each chapter is brilliant.

I am thankful for

1. Naps: I had been in sleep debt for such a long time now, and over this weekend I slept well and a lot, and I feel like I have some energy back.  2. Alone time: My roommate was busy this weekend, and I was all alone- just doing my sleeping, laundry, reading. Like I have said before , it is a recharge for me to spend some time with just myself without the need to talk or be there for others.  3. Work: Past few months were a long, painful wait to get work. I used to hate those days when I was just waiting and it made me feel so worthless. But finally, I have got it! Bonus point: the perfect location- it's a five minute walk to a beautiful park facing a lake. I have been going there every day during lunch.  4. Fights: Normally, fights aren't something people are thankful for. But sometimes they show you how people care for you or how much you mean to them, so yeah today I am thankful for few. 5. A good news: My childhood friend got engaged! Yay!...

A day in San Francisco — Memorial Day

If you have followed my blog for sometime, you probably know about my big move across coast. It's been a few months being a Cali resident, but I haven't gotten out as much as I would have liked.  Maybe once we move to a place, it kinda loses the tourist charm that it has when we visit for a weekend. Don't you think? I decided to make this right and this Memorial Day weekend, I spent my first Touristy day in San Francisco. Like anything else, I made a long list of places to see, and spread it across three days based on distance proximity. Yes, it was a whole weekend plan but life get in way and hence it ended up being just a day trip. The day started with a little detour at Bay Trail, near Shoreline Park, followed by a quick brunch at Crepe Vine and a beautiful long drive to the city. The Painting Ladies at Alamo Square was our first stop. These are basically just houses with a Victorian architecture and painted with three or more colors. The whole area l...

There I was: a story

There I was. Standing in the midst of the hustling crowd, all excited faces around me, all waiting for a change - a new start. Some of them might want a new life, a new career, a new direction or maybe even a new love, but they all had one thing in common - all they wished was to leave behind their past full of mistakes and bad memories, a past filled with betrayals and broken hearts, a past that witnessed all disappointments and let downs. They wanted to put it all behind them, and start over new. They all needed to move on, just as this night would leave behind the darkness and turn into a beautiful canvas, with sparkles all over it, in few minutes. Yes, it's the New Year's Eve party. And I could see all eyes around me carrying that sparkle in them, ready to take risks, ready to go for another adventure, to face their fears, to dare playing with their hearts again. I was wondering what I was doing there, I had no one to be with, no one to kiss at the new year. Go...
