This photograph was taken during a water ride at Chimelong Paradise in Guangzhou, China. While the photograph looks like so much fun as you can make out from our ecstatic faces, I wonder if you can detect an element of shock or surprise as well? It started like this – we were standing in a long… {Read More}

The poet in me…on a crazy today
I started writing this poem about a week ago, can’t believe it took so long. Much more difficult than writing a text. Hats off to all my poet-blogger-friends! Dear God, Once in a while After all your jobs are done, Could you please put the world On auto-run? I don’t know how to say this… {Read More}
Holidays….are you having fun?
The other day I was having a conversation about holidays with a friend, who mentioned how her husband loved to visit every tourist spot mentioned in Lonely Planet whenever they travel.

School is over for today
Its 3 o’clock and the school bell’s loud ring is followed by the giggles and laughs of little children running through the corridors and down the steps despite the ‘No Running’ and ‘Walk Only’ signs displayed.

A morning walk with my son
I have injured my toe as you might have read in my previous post, and have completely refrained from jogging this whole week. My body clock however refuses to acknowledge my toe and still insists on waking me up by 5:45 every morning! So instead of forcing myself to go back to sleep, Tuesday morning… {Read More}
Crazy day – October 12, 2012
Had a crazy day today. Started this morning when my alarm went off at 5:30 am for my jog session. After lazing around for another two minutes in bed, giving a cuddle to my son (don’t ask me how he got there but every night he does manage to) I got up, determined to go… {Read More}
Love thy neighbours!
I don’t think I am a very strict parent since I give in quite easily to the charms and innocent smiles of my mischievous little boys. But when it comes to keeping my home neat and tidy I do like things being kept back in place after use. I feel like I am constantly tidying… {Read More}
