Rain

So, finally the monsoon has arrived in Delhi. It was a wonderful evening yesterday. The moment I get out of office, it started raining heavily, buses were jammed with people. Roads were blocked with water, Metro stopped operating. Instead of all this, it was great to feel the heavy rain. I was totally soaked with water while waiting for bus. Overall, it was a great evening. I reached home and had a refreshing cu of tea and talked to "S" (one of my good friends). He's the one I can bitch about how life sucks these days. Though he's an asshole, but I love his sense of humor. See, I'm bitching about him too. Lollzz.. Then went to sleep. Today morning was refreshing and beautiful. I got late for office but then I took an auto and guess what, a handsome hunk was sitting besides me. Loolllzzzz... Girls will be girls. Anyways, it feels great to be in office now. Have got loads of work to finish. Catch you later.

Yeah, one more thing. Here is an interesting post by one of my blogger friends: "AK" . Since I can't copy and paste it, I'm giving the link. Those who are feeling low about anything can read it and get some inspiration.

New Job

After 3 months of rest at home, finally I got a new Job. These 3 months had been a mix of torture and boredom. I was sitting idle all the time thinking about useless stuff. In these 3 months, I have realized how necessary it is to keep yourself occupied with work. I am feeling as if I am back from a long illness. Anyways, it feels good to be in office. There are new challenges as far as the work is concerned. People are ok types, but the best part is I have an old friend of mine who's working here in the other department so I can go for breaks with her. Overall, it feels good to be busy and occupied. Life has changed a lot in past few months, but I am trying to get hold of myself and regain the old enthusiasm and energy. Will keep posting with latest updates.

Cooking :)

Hi All!

It's been almost a month since I updated my blog. Since I am at home these days, nothing new is going on.. But yeah, I am learning making new recipes like "Bengan ka Bharta" and "Gatte ki sabzi". And the best part is my Bro liked them, otherwise he is like I won't eat this and I won't try anything new. I'll post the pics next time when I cook. Rest is fine. Now am planning to go on a vacation to Agra (my native place). Will update you all soon abt the trip.

P.S. I Love You

So, Nowadays I'm reading this novel - "P.S. I love you" which is a movie as well. I've just read 3 chapters of the novel, but can still feel the warmth of the love Gerry has for his wife Holly. Today, I watched the movie on star movies and really, it was soooo touching. Gerry loves Holly with all his heart and takes care of her small small things. Holly is careless and behaves like a child but Gerry tolerates her impatient behaviour, her mood swings and loves her. He calls her "Hol".

The movie was awesome and so the characters played by the stars. I was literally, in tears after watching the movie and was thinking, when would I find my Gerry? The one person - my soulmate, my best pal, who'll love me with all his heart and whose world will revolve around me. Of Course, I don't want him to die before me, but I would love to spend my whole life with such a great lover and would love to die in his arms. I don't know, whether I would find a person who'll love me more than me but yeah, I keep hopes in my heart that one day, my dream will come true and my man will come to me and will tell me "Hey Ann! I love You and can't live without you". How Romantic no.. All ladies out there, do you also think like me? Are you also searching for your soulmate, your best pal?

Please share..
Love,
Ann

Ranting

Since I'm gonna rant in this post then, why not warn people by the title itself. So, if you don't like ranting, please don't read. Anyways, nothing seems good these days. Don't know why? May be I'm sitting idle or anything else. Though I try to keep myself busy in work, tv and all entertainment stuff, but nothing is working out. I kinda argued with my mom. Though, she ignores my sarcastic comments these days to avaoid any fights and so do I. Really, now I have come to know, how boring it can be, sitting idle at home, doing nothing. I am going for interviews though, but no positive result yet. But not loosing hopes, looking forward to a great opportunity come my way.

Wondering ...

Like everyday, today started with a yoga session and after that I ate a delicious breakfast Aloo ka parantha with my favorite strong chai. Early morning, they were showing "Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna" - one of my all time favorites on Set Max. While watching the movies, various thoughts were coming to my mind like why people go out of their marriage when their partner is so loving and caring. May be their expectations don't match or may be something else. Why we crave for more and more and why we look flaws in our partner rather than accepting them as they are? I know many people who have spent more than a decade with their partner, and still say that they are not happy in their marriage. But touchwood, I can say that my parents are deeply and madly in love with each other. They don't do aything special. But those small small things like my mom listens to my father quitely when he gets angry (though he hardly gets angry on her) and my father sharing every happiness and sorrow with her and there are many instances which I feel make them one of the loving couples.

So, back to the topic. What it requires to make a marriage successfull. What a wife or husband needs to do to keep things interesting and long lasting. I'm single. May be I'll get answers to these questions, when I myself will get married. But, still since I am idle these days, I think about these things more. Those in relationship or married, If you have any tips or tricks for singles or those looking forward to marriage, please share.

Till Later,

Love ya,

Ann
