Impresario

Yes.... if your wondering about the title, it is coincidentally the people i have been working for with a slight twist in the past couple of years with a proper Mindset. However i am not here to tell you about my work address , which by the way is in a fairly swanky area, with the lobby constantly smelling of a wet dog , residential building.... OK! getting back on track, i am here to tell you of me donning the role of an Impresario once again. With a sabbatical of almost 9 years, My hand movements have almost gone from a slight swish to To get it on baby! But what amazes me is i have definitely become a much calmer being with the odd person in the choir petrified of me. I am glad i haven't lost that touch!
Anyway, my evenings these days are almost packed with 16 enthusiasts who besides vocal exercises obviously need a course on being on time! however, with utmost gleam i can say that this is most definitely the coolest summer i have had since i came to the land of no oil and now no money......... funny in a situation like this i should be packing up.... but when is anything in my life Straight?
So right now, my life is full of fantasies & memories filled with dancing queens singing any dream will do to the sounds of big spenders with special emphasises on money. Now does your mother know? if not, That's entertainment darlings........

Reality Bites

You would wonder what am i talking about..cause for the past couple of blogs, all i have spoken about is vacations and how much fun i am having doing all that i was doing. Yeah, but now back to reality and righfully said... Reality Bites!
As recession has hit the world like a plague, and people almost loosing their life,time and money it is becoming difficult to stay focused on the positvity that life has to offer. Call it a human behaveriol pattern or just empathy, My secret seems to be getting one harsh struggle from within. I do wonder how can we be so vulnerable that we make ourselves slaves to everything around us which includes people, jobs, fashion, food, mobile phones, cable tv, discos etc. Our constant struggle of trying to live and potraying our lives as large as we can make them appear seems to be the one and only focus in life.
But here's something that i think we should all be doing in these times, dont let things affect you so much that it would destroy you completely, Life is going to shovel dirt on you, all kinds of dirt. The trick to getting out of the well is to shake it off and take a step up. Each of our troubles is a steppingstone. We can get out of the deepest wells just by not stopping, never giving up! Shake it off and take a step up. .
Its only then that we would enjoy the finer things in life, spend time in creating things, like cooking, garderning, painting etc. We are the self proclaimed most superior race on the planet currently, the art of creation has been shared to us by the higher power. lets make use of this and bring in joy and happiness around us.
I know this blog so far has been my most serious blog, but hey these are serious times and the oppinionated person that i am i just had to say something!

Happy Vacations

I won’t change the blogs name because a Vacations, Relationship advise, love, sex, YouTube videos, and again vacation resorts blog is too long, so for now it stays happy vacations’s Blog which from my point of view is what life should be one long happy vacation, changing plans, traveling companions, and even destinations midway vacation. Isn’t it right. You think you are going one way and suddenly, the weather or any other inconvenience takes you another way, that life, and you should roll with it.

If you have read my previous blog, you would realise that was about a short vacation i took and here i am on another vacation. You all would probably say "wow what a life", well your saying right! hehehehe!!!!!! The year 2009 has definitely started with a bang, my approach towards life has definitely changed and that's thanks to Rhonda Byrne and her secret. Currently i am in London enjoying a much deserved vacation after the long and stressful Dubai food festival that took over my life and taking a little vacation time has given me an opportunity to reflect and recharge. It’s made me even more thankful for everything I have (an amazing family, a wonderful boyfriend and fantastic friends) and excited for the adventure ahead. It’s also given me time to develop a list rules for the road ahead I plan to follow. This year has some definite resolutions which by the way are on a vacation..

Tis! the season to be Jolly......


Regular non readers have probably noticed a gap since my last post. Yes, this means I have stuck to one of my fundamental rules of blogging.......
For Good or Bad, For richer or poorer, In sickness and health, in Poverty and distress... i happened to hear all of these vows in a language which is my own however not practised that often by myself. In a wonderful setting of a pristine white church and everyone doing their own takeoff on the worlds Fall winter collection 2008, My cousins wedding was the highlight of many people i know and met this holiday season.
For my better half and me, it was a well deserved short vacation with being upgraded to business class and the hope that my better half did not break up with me (that's been the custom, every time we have travelled together to Goa) for my friend Adrian it was another well deserved short vacation from a vacation that he had just got back from, for my mum it was meeting cousins in dozens, for my brother and his wife well.....it was pleasing the family, for my nephews it was one big party and as for my dad and my dog it was back home in Bombay all by themselves.............
Though the wedding and all its ceremonies kept all of us and our stomachs extremely busy we did manage to venture out at night ... Paradise Bar & Cafe at Calangute on a Saturday night saw a few out and about alternatives doing what the Goans are famous for. The wedding was witnessed by many different characters that i was introduced to by my mum or simply by themselves. Some i really did not care about their existance while some set my heart racing. What made me wonder was that everyone somehow were either intimidated by me or were just in awe. On the whole a true experiance of lives, attitudes and hospitality.
This Christmas has been a family affair in Bombay and honestly i am glad it turned out that way. Even tho Bombay is not my favourite places in the world, my family made up for it and MORE... So hear i am Wishing everyone that will not be reading this blog ever and also those who happen to accidentally read it and to me who always checks the site if anyone has left me a comment... Here's to a great 2009 and keep believing that all your dreams will be true!!

Tear A Wrist


We may have many mixed feelings about whats happening around us... anger and hatred i suppose are on the top of the list at the moment and who ever is feeling this is justified... We studied Ahimsa in school, well i wish Gandhi was alive today....probably the old hag would have said the same thing! but anyway its the 21st century if we as people do not get our act together and stand up for a slap instead of showing the other cheek... there will be no people left in this world only nature which is diminishing anyway!!
The past 70 hours that i have been glued to the TV only makes my stand about India and the future of India stronger. All the fucking bastards that say that Indian Economy is doing well and will boom and all of that, here is News flash... It is never going to Happen!!! As long as India is under democratic rule, IT IS NEVER GOING TO HAPPEN! If you are still wondering why i am saying this, well then you must be really daft. Don't get me wrong, I love India however as long as the country is run by old hags the economy and lives of people will only see a downfall and nothing else.
We call people who enter the country and shoot people terrorists, however as anyone taken a seat back and analysed that the actual terrorists around are our very own politicians.. so what if they don't kill people point blank, but they do kill people a thousand deaths in various other ways other than being shot point blank.
Look around you, have a thought... you will realise that some people around you are nothing less than terrorists themselves!
Friends that are like imperialistic corporate rulers who hide behind morality like it somehow makes their ills wash away. There is no difference between them and all the terrorists. The only difference is that the terrorists are upfront about what they’re fighting for whereas these people have no clue .....this all has to do with control, hegemony and personal gain.
Read the signs assholes(pardon me, I meant Frankly), it may do you some good. And while you’re at it, you may want to educate yourself on the signs... cause life always shows you the signs before you take the plunge!!

Living the secret

It came to me by utter coincidence, at the usual weekend market that i organise! .....A secret was passed on to me by my better half who was asked to read it by a market vendor. Don't know why? or maybe that's how it was meant to reach me. Anyway, i did start reading it and man i just could not stop reading. I am not much of a reader, or rather i only like reading fairly tales, the last i behaved that way was when i read Harry potter. However the secret got me. Honestly, everything that it said almost got me into tears cause it just made sense.. from that moment on i decided that i shall make it my bible. Have to say it is difficult, cause the mind is very difficult to train, i don't say it is impossible but i do accept its a bit difficult.
I once again find myself changing my ways and behaviour towards people.. but there is one aspect of my life, i feel is over. Its a relationship that had begun in Dubai and guess has finally met its death. It's sad cause honestly we did have many good times, however all i can say at this moment is whats meant to be will happen. At this moment all i can say is a sincere THANK YOU for everything and wish them the very best. This is life and our journey ends here!

I shall speak the truth and nothing else but the truth

Yeah.. well!! Never in my wildest dreams did i ever know, that i would visit a country such as Serbia. But i did, on a business trip last month and stayed there for about 9 days. But my god... is that place a good looking place or what? Its a bit unfair on God to have created such good looking people and put them all in one country.
I have known that east Europeans are good looking, but never really witnessed that in such a large scale. Here in Dubai one does bump into them occasionally and yes... one does say " Bloody Good looking", but i reckon human looks don't really match up to the way the city looks, or one does not really have the time to look at people, cause one is so busy looking at everything else made around them(artificially and extremely ugly). Anyway... coming back to what i was trying to say is, i have experienced good looks almost like a nuclear explosion. What did i do about it would be your next question? besides lusting and feeling miserable... hmmm, nothing!
However there is one thing that i decided while i was there, and that is i have to get myself connected with this country in some form or the other, and so right now busy working on that. Will let you know once its all done and over with...
While that happens, i have just realised that being honest does not pay at all in life. People find it brash, rude and get extremely angry. I now understand why everyone hates Simon Cowell........ I know that truth hurts, but shouldn't you applaud people who are truthful? why should a truth be told any differently than it is? did we not learn in school that one must not lie? isn't that one of the ten commandments? Now... here is what i am being punished for... for being honest, for speaking my mind out, for not having hidden agendas and for simply speaking stating facts. We are humans, we have a heart and sometimes we do get jealous, we may not want anything bad for others, especially if they are friends. But there is a devil in this world who sometimes tempts you into his side? i know being jealous is a sin and we do feel it almost every period of our everyday lives. But should it mean the one who feels that way is a negative person and that would affect your future? Isin't it better if one moves away and not let his so called negative aura affect peoples future? would that be a wise decision?
