Dear Tooth Fairy..

Dear Tooth Fairy, I'm A, my mom calls me Curious A..Sometimes she calls me Cheeky monkey..Don't get me wrong,  I'm not cheeky, she just loves to call me that..  My friends M & D told me that you gave them $2 for their fallen tooth..I was waiting to meet you for long time now..  <Drum rolls> TaDa!!!! Today is the day my very first tooth fell down..Hurray!!!! Thank god it didn't fall during my sleep.. Otherwise I would've swallowed my tooth and my tooth would eat me from Inside.My mom thinks it’s crazy I think that way. I know that's the reason you take all the teeth from all the children in this world.. My question is what do you do with the teeth you collect? do you make them come back to us as new tooth or…… I'm really curious to know what happens to my teeth after you take them!! I'm so glad my tooth fell down this week because my mom refused to give me $2 to get an Ice Cream from my school canteen. My mom reckons it’s just...

Valentine's day

Its not an ideal V-day to spend at the hospital, any day spent at the hospital as a patient/carer is not an ideal day for that matter.Don't you agree?.. Our V-day well spent in Children's Hospital for A's leg injury.. I'm not here to whinge about the-pain-of-seeing-A-in-pain, I wanted to share why I feel hospitals are an ideal place to spend this day. One could argue, Hospitals are run like corporates and its a Billion dollar business..I agree, however my point is Doctors, Nurses and other medical practitioner/support staffs at the hospital doing human service. You could also argue, they get paid to do their Job. My point is when the whole world lives in an illusion of Money, everyone is forced to run for it. No exceptions..So lets keep Money aside for this post, just think of the core "human values"- Kindness & Empathy.. Its Valentine's day morning, I can see sun lazily rising up .. It is a windy summer morning, my kinda weather for a nice long w...

First Century!!!

When I googled First century, it showed me info from first century BC..I was expecting it to show something about Cricket..Even though I hate cricket, trust me living in this Far away land esp in summer, one cannot avoid Cricket..And also Influence starts from majorities in the household who talk/walk/eat cricket (don't get me started on this!!). I was googling about first century to get something interesting to post for my 100th blog post..Yes, this is my first century!! Hurray for me!!  What's the big deal? I know right.. its nothing big but my mind that is almost always conscious of the Present want to celebrate this moment.. And looking back my journey last 2yrs I seriously blogged (70 odd posts). I started blogging with my bestie when I was in University. I stopped and got back on. I only write when something sparks me. I don't force myself to think of something to write. You can call me Laid-back Blogger.. Purely for my pleasure, not trying to be famous(maybe a l...

Every Ending is the Start of a New Beginning

Letter dated 25 th Jan 2018 Kannamma, Today is your last day at Joseph Kinder; you are about to start a new journey in  primary school from next week. Last few years has been a crazy fun ride for you. Totally positive experience from day 1.. Day 1 –I mean from the time you started in Korea. You started Korean play school Wiz Island in 2014 (Aug 8 to be precise) .Its more like a school with Uniforms, Excursions, activities in the class room and school bus etc.,  You were just 2yrs and 4 months when you started there.. I really can’t believe how you did it, you hardly spoke or formed a sentence during that time. You only knew few baby words, that didn’t stop you going every day for 5 hours.. Not just going but going to/from school on your own in School Bus . You had your Formal Mondays and picnic Wednesdays.. Other than that , Korean Playschool thought you lot of good things. You used to have Korean lunch every day at school with Kim, Rice, Soup, Kim chi. You had good...

Mirror, Mirror, on the wall!!

Yesterday, A and I were waiting in the car while G went to pick up something from a shop.. Wait was lil longer than we expected as that shop had lot of customers, A was getting restless. To distract him ,  I said lets read a post from my last year blog. I read him a post of one of our conversations and we had a giggle.. G came back, we started riding..however the old post made me wanna read other ones, I started reading other ones to G and A loudly. Just after reading the next one, A was like "Ma, my ears are paining from your reading..Can we just listen to music instead?".. Did I mention he knows how to pull my leg!! But ME being me, I ignored him and kept going.. There was this post from last Aug about a conversation I had with him on re-birth  and how he wish to be a girl next time. A was like "No, I never said that!!, I don't want to be a girl ever".. I was like "Sorry babe its too late, what you said is recorded with timestamp"..   He was lik...
