Empty Box of Nothingness

Image
Have you heard about empty box of nothingness? I 'm not talking about the empty cardboard boxes, these are memory boxes which sits on our brain to save those moments you are thinking about NOTHING... Well, it may not happen to women mostly coz we are planning 10 different things in our mind while actually doing 10 different things...  According to the research (Ahum!! Ahumm!!) empty box moments definitely happens for men... From what I understood, human memories are composed of small boxes and we choose to get in to any box when we are talking/thinking about them and for men they have an additional cache called Empty box and they enter that box when they are not thinking about anything.. What a bliss...  On the other hand for women brain/memories, all boxes are completely interconnected...its like a complicated switch box.  If you tell a Women A , we know how it ends up in Z.. We connect all the information/boxes we know and that’s why don’t mess with us....

Winter at its peak.. Im not sure it’s the cost cutting or just me, its freezing at work. You would think once you get inside the building its nice and warm.. Nah!!! Me and my work neighbour always give each other that look “MY GOD ITS FREEZING” and after lunch it gets worse, its like sitting inside freezer.. Usually I feel sleepy after lunch and this cold doesn’t help me to stay awake. Its Friday today, just to get rid of my winter blues, I thought I will wear something summer but I regret it now as I’m feeling very cold and my colleagues giving me “r u crazy” look..I already explained two people “its Friday and I need to cheer up”.. I thought I will share my ways to fight this cold at work.. just read it for fun..     I fill my cup with HOT HOT water and hold. That would keep me warm for 10 mins..Its just awkward I keep going to kitchen to refill my cup with hot water..This nice lady at work suggested me to bring in bottle so I can reduce my kitchen trip...

Welcome to A's country house..

Image
We drove to Snow Mountains on the weekend and we were passing some beautiful country houses with huge farm and farm animals. I asked A whether he would get a country house for me?  He said Yes, two houses on the hills.. One for him and one for me next to each other. How sweet I thought. Then came the twist in his story.. He went on explaining how his house will look like.. He will have dogs in his house obviously, first he said 10 dogs.. I had to admit I’m very very very scared of dogs. He then changed his mind to have one dog for me(still sweet!!).. Dog house would be closer to the entrance gate but dog can walk around anywhere within the fence and inside his house.. Once we cross dog house, there will be snakes (that’s right!!) in these three bottles.. Hearing this, I said I’m not coming to your house .. He is not bothered at this point (cant be sweet all the time..right!!)and kept on explaining,.. he will have 3 baby crocs (Seriously!!!) and once you c...

Who's cooking tonight!!

Have you met a person who is a Vegetarian but hates vegetables…you might wonder that I’m not talking sense.. Say hello to me, I’m one of them.. Well, I used to be one of them. Growing up with Vegetarian parents, I didn’t have much choice than to eat veggies.. But I never enjoyed eating veggies growing up..  Worst part is I used to hate dairy (Milk/Yogurt) too.. Once I started to cook myself, I started to eat vegetables/diary.. Started to appreciate food even more.. But I must say Cooking is not my cup of tea..  I can cook to survive,cook the basics so I’m fuelling my family.. Never fancied staying in the kitchen for hours making something or fancied making dishes from master chef.. I’m guessing that’s because cooking sounds complicated. I was discussing this with my niece  and we came up with these cooking levels.. Thanks to Rakz who suggested the names for these levels to be a 4 course meal..

Killing more than once..

Image
The news that’s really  bothering me last few days is about a girl who was murdered at a busy railway station in Chennai. PC: http://www.orderofthegooddeath.com/murder-ballads-the-poor-poor-knoxville-girl Swathi is just another IT girl in Chennai started her day without knowing how it’s going to end within hours. She was murdered in broad day light with at least 10 to 50 bystanders who are scared to even call the police. What had actually happened, no one knows until police finds the murderer. But the creative stories floating around in the media/people which is really disheartening.. Why are these people not talking much about the guy and his behavior … whatever the situation maybe, what right he has to kill a girl brutally? It’s just because he was upset... Oh Yea... Actually, that girl’s life is nothing compared to that man’s anger...That girl would've went through so much in her last moments.. that is not enough now, she had to put up with people's judgmental...

A's little adventure with Dad...

Image
Little A become a big boy going on trips without mum.. he had his first trip without me last month to Gold Coast with G. They spent mostly in Dream world, I was really worried how he would react after going there. But then he took it really well.. Trick is we never give him surprise. He usually knows what’s coming and we keep talking positive things about the event at least a week prior to that. G took printout of dream world map and start to plan what to see/do with A everyday for a week..  Initially he wasn’t happy about the trip without me.. But slowly day by day he started to feel comfortable about his trip to see all his favourite characters and fun things he would do with G. And 2 days before his trip, he was completely ready and when I asked him whether he would miss me on his trip..His response was “Don’t worry mom. I will do face-time.. “ I was so proud of his matured response and felt so relieved to hear that instead of whining and dramas which would’ve made ...

I have written so much about mum, never talked about my dad.. Like every girl's dad ,he is protective, worried  and bold enough to send me to do masters in a far away land while my friends were getting married those days(all thanks to my brother who convinced him).. But I can never thank him enough for that big step. It changed my life forever. It opened up my perspective to everything. He is fascinated with Cars and its mechanics, he used to always talk about it...still does.. He loves to drive, never trust anyone with his car. Back of my head I can still hear him giving me instructions while I drive now..G says sometimes I act like my dad when G drives ..giving him instructions,,haha.. I've noticed  my sister does it too :) its in the Gene I guess.. PC:http://www.theboredmind.com/entertainment/heart-touching-father-daughter-relationship-born-princess-will-remain-one/ I cant believe how he is so broad minded considering he grew up in a small village and not ...
