5 things I am thankful for

Netflix: It's about time Netflix added some good movies, and A Walk to Remember is definitely a good one to start with. Hoping to see some more ever-classics on there. New TV: Finally I got rid of the monitor-sized TV, and now I have a TV I can actually say is a TV. Watching Game of Thrones on this one is so fulfilling. Vacation: It was a much needed time away from work, and a real vacation this time— no travelling, no exploring, no sleep deprivation. Just eat, beach, and sleep. Relaxed week: This past week has been relatively relaxed and stress-free (a lot of people are on vacation and so there's less badgering for now ) and I couldn't be happier about it. Health: For a long time, I have had some health concerns but never been able to figure out the cause. Finally, thanks to the new doctor and bunch of tests, I have some clarity and direction. What are you thankful for today? P.S. Let's connect on  Facebook ,  Instagram ,  P...

Favorite Five: Movies — October Blogging Challenge Day 5

I am a big movie fan; I like everything about them— the storytelling, the different world, the drama and romance. I am always up for movies, be it in a movie theatre or at home with Netflix!  If I were to make a list of my favorite movies, these would always be on the list: Harry Potter: ALWAYS! N eed I say more? I can do marathons of Harry Potter movies over a weekend, and it would be the best time spent. Remember Me: I just love this movie and have watched it countless times. It makes you realize how unpredictable life is, and how much we take the people and moments in our life for granted.  "Our fingerprints don't fade from the lives we have touched." P. S. I love you: Another movie I can watch any time. Although I like the book so much better (that's true for almost every book turned movie), it still feels good to watch that kind of love. And it also too makes us realize the unpredictability of life, and how we should live today to ...

Friday Things

Hello scribblers, How are you? How is life treating ya'll? What's going on lately? For me, it is pretty usual- Get up in the morning, get ready for work, eat my breakfast, try to fight sleep at work, come back home and cook, watch Game of Thrones with dinner and then try to sleep early. I have been failing at that last part a lot. I made some changes to the blog recently- I changed the header and also the default font for my blog. I also did a little tweaking in my template so now my posts titles are centered. I have to thank Dana , for her tutorials. They are really simple and easy to follow, and the small changes make a big difference. For creating the header, I used Canva . I love it- it's so easy to create images for my blog posts, icons or headers. For the fonts, I used free fonts from Google and imported them to my template. They have so many good fonts and it was so hard for me to choose. I initially had picked way too many, but thankfully they have...

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.  I want to talk about a serious problem with books and mov...

A movie weekend

I went to see Madagascar 3 on Friday night; It was like just another Madagascar movie. I like the first two better than this one. But the good thing is I love animated movies, so I enjoyed this one too.  I just love those animals! I also went to see Barfii  on Saturday. It was like the most awaited Bollywood movie of the year. And I just loved the portrayal of characters and innocent love. I want love like that. And I watched One Day on my laptop.. I cried. This weekend was totally a movie weekend for me.  Of course with lots of F.R.I.E.N.D.S. time, but that's usual.  I am such an addict.  I really didn't do anything else, and now I feel bad for that because I really had lots of work to do and I kept procrastinating the whole time, so this week is gonna be damn hard! I plan to go see Corning Museum next weekend, no movies. What are your plans?

Can't wait!

Demented!!

In my otherwise so very usual going life, recently I have been feeling something unusual. Sometimes, it feels like all happiness have been sucked out.  Yea yea, I am sounding a lot like the movie, but there are times when I actually feel that way. All the bad memories come running to mind. Even the best of things happening around fail to make me smile. And I even feel like my whole life will be this way only.. Sounds weird? I know it does. I surely need to learn a Patronus, to shoo these dementors away!

Waiting for the Twilight..

Finally I finished reading Twilight yesterday.  I have seen all three movies, but I hadn't read the series.  And, like always, it turned out to be much better than the movie.  (Only now I had the faces and knew almost all their expressions.. too obsessed I guess! )  Finishing the book left me in a good mood, all dreamy..  Moments before I actually slept, I was laying on my bed, my eyes closed and I felt like I was floating..  I wasn't sleeping but I was already dreaming. Oh, I wish so much to have that dreamy feeling every day.  I was beautiful,  and romantic too. P.S. I miss you !

Something wrong with my clock?

Hello readers, How have you all been? How is life treating you all? I hope in a good way! My side, I don’t even want to mention. It’s all the same. Few days back I read my blog backwards, and I noticed that there was a time when all posts were about ‘all work and to time’ rants. So, I have decided that I won’t mention same story again. (I, though, gave a hint- it is the same story!) It’s Friday, and good part is to come in couple of hours: Weekend :o) This Sunday, I am going to watch ‘ Alice in wonderland ’ in 3-D. It’d be my 1st 3-D movie. I hope it’s a good movie, and the experience as well turns out to be same. Along with that, I am looking forward to some shopping (not much this time, as I don’t have much left with me – Month end sucks!) I think I should buy a pair of heels now. It’s been over an year (after my accident) since I wore one. Oh! I also have to buy a gift for my sister. Shit! I am broke. I’ve got no money! (Dear salary, please come soon. I’m waiting desperately f...

P.S. I love you!

Monthly Update : Aug '10

It's been a long time since I last did this one! Feeling: Nostalgic and Helpless    Loving: weekend and back-to-back movies      Reading: At first sight      Wanting: Shopping, going home, being with him      Dreaming: of getting out of here and finding a direction to follow, right direction      Having: Noodles with orange juice      Waiting:  to get a clue about what to do next. What about you dearies?

I don't know what to say

Today I went to salon for head and neck massage, as I was having tense shoulders and was feeling heavy headed. The person who did my head massage was too good at his job. Some time later, while talking to him, I realized that he's blind. Actually, he told that he's blind. He was so good at his work that I couldn't have judged it otherwise. I was really shocked when he said, and it has made me so sad. He had done Ph.D. in acupressure, and after studying so much, he was still at this job. I mean, if his eyes would have been alright, he would have been at a better career position and earning far better. Life is so unfair to some. I still feel so bad whenever I think of him. I wish I could do something to help him, but I don't know what. I had once seen a movie similar to this ( At first sight ), and coincidently, before going to salon I got a random thought of that movie. Such a coincidence! I am a short-sighted person, and I always feel bad that I can'...

Love #5

" After all I'm just a girl,  standing in front of a boy,  asking him to love her. " -Notting Hill

Move on !!

Last night after dinner, I made hot coffee for me and my roommate. And then we both sat down for movie "When a man loves a woman". Moments later I was the only one watching, these cellphones are such a distraction. She went to talk to her boyfriend, and I continued watching the movie. The movie was simply awesome. I always love Meg Ryan, but Andy Garcia was too good a lover. Loved him all through the movie! After this one finished, I wasn't still feeling sleepy. So I decided to see another one "Mean girls".         Though it is not a serious movie, it made me serious. I don't know why every little thing takes me into the flashback. Its been months that I am trying to just forget that group, which was my group someday. But why it still hurts somehwere when I come across their names, or see their pictures on some social networking website. I had tried more than I should, to keep the whole thing intact, but maybe it wasn't meant to be. But then wh...

Autumn in New York

Today afternoon, I saw the movie 'Autumn in New York'. Nice movie. The movie made me realize, we can never be sure of tomorrow. Never can we know what is going to happen to us, or our loved ones, the very next second. Life is too short to love our dear ones. It is not how intense or deep feelings we have, it is how we make them feel. It is about treating them right. People might not remember what we said to them, but they will never remember how we made them feel. Sugar-coated words mare not necessary, just care is enough for anyone, be it in any different way. We have got just one life, and none of us know how long or short it is. We should live and love as if there is no tomorrow. I hope all of us realize this soon, as we have already wasted over twenty years .

I am going blank

I am having nothing in mind as what to write here. I am feeling so damn free and useless. I hate being dependent on anyone, but I am having no choice now. I want to go back, to walk again, to move about, to do everything on my own, and to be busy. Very busy. Please God, end this punishment now, please. I am not doing any self-pity, but I want to get out of this damn plaster now. Also, as said in Hindi, "Khaali dimag, shaitaan ka ghar!" This mind wanders so much, cut it off please . What else do I write! ( Enough of cribbing) I miss my cybershot! But even if I had it here, it won't be of much use as I am more of a stationary object now.      I saw 'Bridget Jones's Diary' today morning. Nice movie.          Planning to see one more today, but I am scared of the headache that constant laptopping gives me. I wish somebody could get me a book. I don't like asking for favors, but I am in a helpless condition.
