In a Paris state of mind..

So today I spent almost all day collecting and pinning pictures of the Eiffel Tower to a new board on Pinterest.   I saw the majestic structure in person when I was younger; along with some bikini clad Frenchwomen. But I can remember neither clearly.   Although the Tour De Eiffel has been a world landmark, there’s so much we do not know about it! For example, this beauty was … Continue reading “In a Paris state of mind..”

The Second Sunday of May

Since yesterday was Mother’s Day, it gives me immense happiness to reflect into how blessed I am to be born to mine. For so very many reasons.  ♥ Did you know that the official Mother’s Day flowers are carnations?

Let Go

There will always be those days that you feel that its stupid to give and expect nothing But then those will come when you reminisce about the joy you experienced in the process And everything will be all worth it… — Like a fresh wound it will sting, as the distances grow For all the sweat and tears, seem to be a far dream It is true that if you love, … Continue reading “Let Go”

All About Ads

To quote our CEO, videos are the future. The visual content grabs attention like no other and has the advantage of imagery as well as music – making the whole package difficult to miss and remain etched in memories of its target audiences. This is a collection of five advertisements which have left me enthralled, and I couldn’t help but add them to my You Tube favourites. “Thank You, Mom” … Continue reading “All About Ads”

April Wedding

I can still remember Rashi from the graduation days – when I did not know her, she seemed to be an introvert, quiet, with a pleasing personality. In second year, destiny brought us together in a beautiful apartment in Viman Nagar as room mates. The rest has been history. She was my sister-in-arms, friend and comic relief for two whole years. We have innumerable memories, photographs and moments that I treasure. … Continue reading “April Wedding”

A Better Place

Amid all of the other disturbances, the world seems so much of a better place when Mothers are around. On this Women’s Day, a little tribute to the most beautiful woman I know and an unconditional love that can be never replaced.

Canine Craving

This Saturday night, I was absolutely alone at home staring at my laptop screen trying to find something, amongst my 1050 movies to entertain me. Suddenly, my attention was drawn to the title ‘Marley & Me’ – a film I had been long avoiding due to the ending that I’d heard of. However, my overwhelming affection for dogs and state of mental helplessness got me to begin watching it. From … Continue reading “Canine Craving”

Sher-locked

It was only last week that I was introduced to a television show which had been first aired in the UK in the summer of 2010; Sherlock – a modern take on Arthur Conan Doyle’s classic British detective, Sherlock Holmes. Created by Steven Moffat and Mark Gatiss (Who also plays Mr Holmes, the older – Mycroft), starring my newest ‘crush’ Benedict Cumberbatch as Sherlock Holmes and Martin Freeman as Doctor … Continue reading “Sher-locked”

The Sound of Music

I’ve been one of the fortunate few in the world whose lives have been almost always inspired by music. Being a single-child in a Bengali household, music is something one cannot escape from – it is crucial to be trained in vocals or an Indian classical instrument and to display one’s ‘talent’ on every visit to the motherland. I distinctly remember returning from school in the scorching middle-east sun in … Continue reading “The Sound of Music”

Shaadi Mubarak!

2011 has been big on the weddings front. Two very close friends and a brother got hitched and I’m very fortunate that I was able to be present and collect my own share of happy memories with them. Ridhima-Bhavya in May, Shoi-Bulan in July and most recently, Riki Bhaiya and his Jabalpur bride this month. Amongst a variety of speculations on whether I would be or should be able to … Continue reading “Shaadi Mubarak!”
