My Precious Friend

There are moments of times when hours seem like minutes in her comapny.

It seems that I met her just a few seconds back. And why do I have to leave her so quickly? :-( :-(.

I stop thinking when I am with her. I lose myself when I am with her. And I want to be with her for a long long time.

But pleasure, they say, needs to be enjoyed in parts. And she always believes in advocating this quote.

After I wake up, the first thing that I comes to my mind is when will I get the privilege of having her comapny.

The moment she incites me with the slightest oppurtunity, I love to fall back to her. She doesn't complain. And I don't complain either.

And her thoughts come back to me - not less than ten times a day.

I have met her in little bursts over the past day - and I am longing to have her extended company tonight.

She is my precious friend - Sleep.

Ice Cream and Heart

What's common between an Ice cream and a Heart??

Well, it's simple. 

Both of them have a habit of melting!!

And this is what I realized a few days back.

Being in cold storage for long, all alone in the world, they harden up a bit. Rather I'll say, they harden up a lot.

They might be colorful. They might be wonderful. But shelf life is never so exciting.

But when they come in touch with something or someone warm, it's difficult  for both of them to hold on to the coldness that comes with them.

They might be frigid. They might be icy. But the warmth, the love, the fondness, the attraction drives all this away. And they melt.

And nothing conveys the point better than the two images and captions below.

Keep Melting!!

PC

This blog post is dedicated to three PCs - one of the them who is a part of my life for every single day, one of whom who is a known public figure in India, and one who is a stylish super model and filmstar.

While one of them is just 28, another is 40 years old. The last one has seen 65 years under this sun.

The first PC is the Personal Computer.

When did I see her first? Maybe, some 18 years back. And  in those days, she was a bit on the heavier side. 

Back then, I could hardly operate her. And she did a few things when I wrote a few simple commands.

Today, she is a much more sleek and one of my cherished possession. 

She keeps me connected to the world. And keeps my company too. She is my music player. She is my video player. And then she keeps me engaged after work and on holidays!!

The next one is P. Chidambaram, an Indian politician, popularly known as PC.

PC has essayed multiple roles in Indian politics. His standout work has been in the role of Finance Minister of India.

He was a part of the team which opened up the Indian economy back in 1991 - with Manmohan Singh and Montek Singh Ahluwalia. He presented the Dream Budget in 1997. 

He also made significant changes in the tax structure in the Feb 2008 budget - opening the doors for the victory for the UPA in the May 2009 elections.

And for the last 22 months, he has been India's home minister - tacking one challenge after another - the Maoist Challenge, the Kashmir insurgency and protests, and the tense situation - before and after - the Ayodhya Title Suit verdict.

And the last one is Priyanka Chopra. And PC needs no introduction.

A decade back, she was the runner up in the Miss India competition. And she went on to become Miss World.

Since then she has acted in close to 40 films across several Indian languages. 

I will call her the most successful model who has made an effortless transition to being an actress. People have been impressed by her beauty and by her charm, and also by her acting.

2008 was her best year - where she had two super hit films - Fashion and Dostana. 

Both these films catapulted her to the top. And since then, her every film is looked forward to by her avid fans.

So what do we say for these three PCs?

Well, I wish you all the best success in the coming years!!

Stylish Shoes

There are many things about women which are very intriguing and difficult to comprehend. 

But if you ask me to take out a top list, this is something which would definitely be among them.

I am talking about shoes - simple shoes. And I have always been amazed by the number of shoes being possessed by the girls.

Now shoes are something which we wear beneath our feet - to help us walk comfortably, both when we are at home and outside home. And if this is to be the purpose of the shoes, then a couple of them would be quite sufficient.

But then, these days, shoes are just not meant to be shoes. They are meant to be style statements. They are supposed to reflect your mood. They are an epitome of your attitude.

There would be several other reasons - which I am unable to comprehend at the moment. But it seems this multitude of factors is the reasons why you would commonly find gals possessing a whole lot of shoes.

So here's a low down of a few attractive and useful variety of shoes which are in circulation in the market.

Starting with the humble Sandal.

This is the most simplest and basic of all women shoes. Quite easy to wear, it can come in stylish looks too. And the best part is that it offers a lot of fresh air to the feet, making it one of the most liked footwear.

Next comes another simplistic footgear - the slippers.

It is worn commonly at home - and is usually loved for its simple look and comfort feel.

Then come sneakers.

They have become an integral part of Friday Dressing for women. Needless to say, they are preferred footwear for gals - at games, at casual outings, and similar such occasions. 

And for formal clothing, women need not depend on a particular style of shoes. A lot of trendy formal shoes are available - like the one below - which makes formal dressing quite simple.

Such shoes are characterized by elegance and grace.

Many a times, you will also find women wearing high heels on formal occasions.

These are equally graceful. While it would help a woman with a slightly lesser height look tall, it is also worn by tall women to make them stand out further.

Slingback shoes too are similar in design - with a strap extending behind the heel.

Coming next are boots.

Commonly made of leather, they stand long - usually extending just right below the knees. They too are worn on formal occasions. You would also find them quite popular in countries where bad weather due to snow or cold is quite common.

And then you must have heard about globe trotting celebrities - partying their way away on yachts. Usually they are accused on not knowing what to wear on the yacht. They are commonly spotted wearing high heels - and are later accused of damaging the floor of the yacht.

To avoid joining their league, next time when you go on a yacht or a boat - put on a pair of Boat Shoes.

While these shoes are commonly used for regular wear, there are some other which are used only at parties or social occasions.

Such shoes come in attractive colors and stylish designs. And needless to stay, this is when they become more than shoes - they become style statements.

And to give the women the confidence that it is not about only style - but style with substance - you have advertisements like the one below.

These shoes - be they stylish or simple - might be at your feet. But they go onto add that extra bit of charm into your attitude.

After all, the world is beneath your feet!!

Of Playlists, Shuffle and Repeat

Times Change.

There was an age of Gramophones. This was the time when music started making a mark by making an entry in the homes of the people.

You could put on disc and listen to the best music in the comforts of the home. 

Then came the golden old tape-recorders.

It furthered the cause of music. Less bulkier than the Gramophones,they were instant hits.

But then none of these had a concept of Play lists, Shuffle and Repeat.

Then came MP3 players. 

For years, I did not know the meaning of MP3. Although today I thought what it stood for, Wikipedia proved me wrong. :-)

As you might be aware, the three most important things in a MP3 player today are - Play-lists, Shuffle and Repeat button.

Play-lists are used by us to compile a list of songs which we would like to commonly play and access. Needless to say, our favorites will figure here.

Next comes Shuffle. If you are getting bored with the sequence in which the songs are being played, then shuffle is the button for you. It showcases an important fundamental - Variety is the spice of life.

And then moving onto Repeat. This is one feature which allows you to play the same set of songs over and again. If you have small play-list, this is the button for you - you will never run out of songs, virtually. :-)

But why on earth am I thinking about these things, and worse still, writing about them?

The blame lies with the music of the single most awaited film in India - Anjaana Anjaani. 

Starring reigning queen of Bollywood, Priyanka Chopra, a.k.a. PC, and the nation's heartthrob Ranbir Kapoor, it's music is making waves.

The film's release has postponed already once, in view of the verdict of the most important court case in the recent Indian history, the Ayodhya Title Suit. But the judgment getting postponed by a week resulting in a heads on clash with the films release date, I thing the release will get postponed once again.

But the Indian janata is satisfying their desire for what looks to be a good movie, by generously accepting its classical music.

It's two songs - Tumse Hi Tumse and Naina Lageeyan Baarishan - have taken over my music player. They have got into a Play-list and the Repeat Button is on!! And needless to say, Shuffle is not at all in sight!!

Until recently, it was Mora Piya who had occupied this top notch position.

A friend asked me whether I had listened to the songs of this movie. Of course, I had. And needless to say, she too was impressed by music.

And when the time came to choose the favorite, she chose the second. And I chose the first.

The same question to another friend yielded a slightly different result - we both agreed on the same song being our favorite. :-)

But be it the first or the second, it's all music to the ears. 

And this is one music record which has made a mark with all its songs being head turners.
