Eh, not what you are thinking! :P

Way too many...
Things to be done...

and Way too little...
Time in hand..



For the few days (actually since the year started), I barely have time for myself. Probably I wanted to keep myself busy, change my lifestyle blah blah blah.. For now, I am coping at the expense of blogging, blog-hopping and rest/sleep.

I know I greet some of you in YM, but disappear the next moment. I "drifted to the dreamland" while talking to a friend last week. And, I just realized I sent few unrelated sms to my friends last night. That's a lesson why I should not attempt to answer calls or reply to sms after I already went to bed. Sorry guys.

Keeping my fingers crossed, hoping things will get better in days to come.

God, I need my life back!

... I feel upset today.

no no.. it's not upset.. may be angry?
or is it depression?
no, not depression.. confusion?

it's like you are missing something
or forgotten about something?
or uneasy about something?

weird feeling that I have no clue about.

damn.. what is this thing?

[Sorry for not visiting your blogs as often as I should. Currently busy with my remaining work in the office (:P) and some other projects. There won't be any Friday post 2moro. Will try to blog hop whenever I get the time. And Keshi, yours will be the first blog I am gonna visit. No worries. Hugss!!]

Okie, it has been exactly 24 days since the incident happen, and some of you may find this post like an old newspaper now. I am sure some of the bloggers have highlighted this. To those who have no idea what I am talking about (especially to my country people), here is a bit of the news:

The shocking pictures of two young women being molested by a mob of 70 to 80 men at Mumbai's Juhu area in the early hours of New Year's Day, has ashamed the city.

The women, one in a black dress and the other in a jeans and top emerged from the JW Marriott with two male friends around 1:45 am, and began walking towards Juhu beach close by.

A mob of about 40 got after them and began teasing the women when one of the women swore loudly at the hooligans. But the mob, now 70-80 strong, wouldn't let go.

They trapped the women near a vehicle and a tree, and pounced on them. A man in a white shirt tore off the black dress. Another, in a blue shirt, led the assault.

As the women fell on the ground, dozens of men jumped on them.

More news here: NDTV , Zeenews


70-80 men vs 2 women + 1 man? Doesn't sound like a fair fight to me! I can't bring myself to publish the photos of the assault that was taken by reporters who were at the scene. Just gp to the news link I gave and see it yourself.

To add insult to the injury, the Police Commissioner only has this to say?

While the entire nation saw with horror pictures of the incident in a national daily, the Mumbai Police Commissioner D N Jadhav said, “Don’t make a mountain out of a molehill. Keep your wives at home if you want them safe. These kind of small things can happen anywhere”

I had the link to the video interview with the Commissioner where he state this to the media. Damn.. couldn't find it now!

"Wise" people's advice are meant to headed. So, girls.. stay home after this. No roaming in streets even with your hubby. No working. Screw women's contribution to the economy, our safety comes first. Or how about chastity belt for women (and girls) whenever they have to go out? We are going centuries back - we were 'safe' then!!!

Probably these were in his mind when he gave the interview.

OH!!! No one got it right!

It's gadgets! I bought a Sony Erricson W580i and a mp3 player. Exactly what i need for 2008! Ish.. Mahen, you know I bought them right? :P

So, now I have 2 handphones (with 2 simcards of course)!! Hehehehe.. and W580i is a walkman phone.. now, i have option either to use the phone or the mp3 player to listen to songs! Yippeee!

To those (majority) who said "a new hairstyle"... it was temporary curls, remember? :D
Mahen said.. "lose weight" .... just 3 kg. i still have 12 more to go! :(

Hehehe...

I started wearing glasses the same year I went to university. That was like 7, 8 years ago. Although I became rather dependent on glasses or sometimes contact lenses, I consider myself to be lucky. You may wonder why. It's for a simple reason that I don't have to parade in thick glasses since primary. However, I do hope the glasses to cost a little lesser than what I am paying for now. I am quite amazed when I look at the ad saying Great Discovry: $ 8 Prescription Glasses From Zenni Optical!!! Wow! What a bargain??? When I read further, it seems they manage to keep the prices so low as they are manufacturing their own frames! I wish more and more companies will come out with such brilliant idea! It will be quite helpful for people like me.

My Thai Ponggal wishes to everyone celebrating it. Too bad I will be celebrating it at my office :( Yeah, I'm working tomorrow. Damn, should have taken off! *sigh

I had a hair cut yesterday. Not a drastic change, though I cut it layers and curled it slightly. The curls are temporary bcoz I wasn't so sure if it will look fine to me. The previous temporary curls I did was horrible. Now testing it with my senior hairstylist. Wanna check out what the majority says before I make it permanent. What do you say?


Among songs I love to hear again and again. Kinda cute I think.


Movie: No idea la (anyone knows?)
Song: Ennai Tottu

I believe women deserves to be treated much better than past and present. That is my stand. Be it in the working environment, access to latest technology, family establishment or society in general, I want to see women to be treated as equal to men. No, I would never undermine a man's rights and ego. I know I will never succeed in that. All I want is some sort of recognition to women.

I don't want women to be regarded only as a machine to provide sexual pleasure and to make babies. I don't want women to be treated more or less like a servant. At the same time, I don't believe in queen control, or bimbo act. I hate it in fact. I want to see some sort of balance in responsibilities borne by men and women.

It is not (only) men's fault that some women out there are being exploited. What saddens me is that there are women out there taking advantage of the weaker ones! For example, this news (and also this) where women in some parts of India being 'recruited' as surrogate mothers for a handsome fees. They are 'confined' in a luxuries house, well-taken care of and all they have to do is to hand over the baby to the biological parents immediately after the delivery. They are renting out their womb, and I believe that they have been sort of brainwashed to accept this as a mere transaction. Yes, surrogate pregnancy is not new but doing it as a business??? After all, it is a woman doctor running this so called 'clinic'. Isn't this called exploitation of weaker women?

I may not be Eleanor of Aquitaine who believed in women's superiority over men or
Celia Sánchez who comprise a combat squad during the Cuban revolution or Margaret Hilda Thatcher, the Iron Lady, but I am just being me.

I am hoping for a world that gives equal rights to everyone, a world that is free from sexual harassment, a world where domestic violence doesn't exist. If that means I am a feminist, let it be.

Weird title you may say. Unique game I would defend. This is a very different kind of game, you may want to call it a Sweepstake which promise you Free gifts as well.

Why I say it's different? In this game, your goal is to place the lowest bid to win the prize. But your prise will be free or charge, and your bid actually does not represent actual dollar! Now, how cool is that?

You may want to sign up as a member or a premium member. The choice is yours, and I don't think this is something you should just skip considering wide range of prizes they are offering. The prizes range from Apple I-Phone to Cash prize!!!!

Movie: Poovellam kettu paar
Song: Irava Pagala

No one could say no to this melody. Beautiful!

I know I have stopped wishing some time ago. I never had any resolutions/wishes before but this year I have not one but 10 of them! I want a change a now. Possibly a change I have been longing for; a change that will startle any people; a change that will definitely change me!

Okie okie.. don't get confuse. Let's get down to short list of my wishes for the brand new year:

I need to shed 15 kg to be back to a healthy weight! I don't know how I am going to push myself to do it, but I have to.. somehow!






The last 3 years have been wasted. Don't wanna waste another precious year in my life for anyone now. I better start looking for a bf now! Any volunteers eh? ;)








Every year will start with a bang, u know the usual countdown parties and fireworks. But this year started quietly. Just me with my darling. Praying that a different start will give me a different perspective for a new year!

Happy New Year to all!

Many dread that word actually. Especially when you have one of your friends working as an insurance agent. However, my perception sort of taking a U-turn when I saw this website which educate us on lot of stuff about insurance, for example how to save money on insurance.

There was a feature which I think cool. Save Money on Insurance Premium teaches us how to find an insurance package that is most suitable for us and at the same time, affordable too. You just have to fill up some details and submit it. You will be given a list of suitable insurance package for you. Cool huh?

Besides, you may also cash back life insurance! Now, could it be any better? ;)
