Snow!

So apparently it snowed last night! Given that I had slept for 2 hours the night before thanks to a review submission, I slept at 9 and missed it. But look what I saw when I woke up!

I haven't been out yet, because, well, I'm lazy. But its SO pretty!
Accompanying the mood is some seriously good coffee, and a 'Winter' scented candle. Happiness.

What a bright, sunny, cold day!

Funny how Sharan wrote about frost today! Not really funny, because, well, we do live in the same country and its fairly tiny.

My list of first-times since I came here is quite long. Shots, clubbing, living alone, cooking for more than 4 people...I could go on. Had my 16728th, 16729th and 16730th today--walking to the library in -2 deg. C. And seeing frost. And experiencing -2 deg.C and bright sunshine at the same time.

I didn't actually realise why the grass was white. It looked like it was sprinkled with icing sugar. Or flour.
I now also understand why people here love sunshine. I've converted. It is a beautiful day today.

Cannot wait for it to snow. It is going to be my first! They predict snow here, and its going to be snowing quite heavily in Munich when I'm there! :D  Though I do realise that walking to the library or the supermarket in the snow(rather when it melts, I'm told) is going to be quity crazy.

Since I am discussing weather, I would like to sincerely thank my Clarks boots. They are a life saver. My feet would've frozen and broken into pieces by now if not for them. Also, my Colaba and Mussoorie shawls which I double up as scarves. Bless them.

Hope to be back!

Coming to the U.K. has made me feel like venting out my feelings somewhere, because god knows, there have been overwhelming ones! So just as a way to cleanse me off them (so that there's room for more) and to document my personal graph, I will write here. And hopefully change things around.

The posts will, most probably be, quite personal. However, I will also try to document things that I find amusing/interesting. My motive for blogging, as most things, is selfish. I'm going to write for myself!

Here's hoping I keep going this time!

Men are jerks. Period.

Aim: 30 pages in 1 day.

Material: 2 not-so-inspiring movies

Apparatus: Cocoa, MS Word

Procedure: Work ass off

Conclusion: Impossible! :(

Cuban Salsa on Masakalli

                                      

                                   

Cuban Salsa on Masakalli, on Dance India Dance(and I'm not the biggest fan of reality shows) managed to save my otherwise miserable day at 3:40 am.

Sharan and Piu, I was so thinking of you guys!

My First Tag, and a great one!

Thanks for the tag, Sharan! This was fun.

These are merely some of my favourites. Bollywood because love it or hate it, you just can't ignore it! The Revolutionary Women in both these movies are very interesting. Whereas Gul Panag in Dor keeps me awed everytime I watch it, Winslet in Revolutionary Road keeps me confused. Guddi is probably not an apt selection for Hrishikesh Mukherjee, but I love the movie. He has much more brilliance to his credit.
