YOU D.I.S.A.P.P.O.I.N.T ME

Nature's embrace

I got soaked down to my chaadis in the torrential rain and then danced in my terrace. Yippie!:)

I like the song 'Circus' by Britney Spears, which happens to be my current favourite. I have always been a fan and the woman's rocking the show after a long time. Go get jiggy with it!:)

body worship

I tend to generally obsess a little too much about my weight. I like cribbing about how fat i am, how i can't get into my old clothes and how i can't control my appetite for junk food. But i do little to remedy the situation. Non-action on my part has made my weight balloon from 48 kgs. to 56 kgs. over the past few months. The layers of fat have piled up on my tummy and buttocks, making me hip-heavy and unfit. So after a long motivational talk with myself, I finally decided to get a trainer and get back in shape.

It has been two weeks since i first started my exercise routine and I'm feeling great. I like pushing myself to the limit, to have every pore in my body open with sweat, to feel my muscles cringe and stretch and my lungs full of fresh air. The freehand and yoga exercises are painful and tiring. But nothing can be a more rewarding experience than being conscious of one's own body, that is awake and throbbing with life. I really hope i can keep at this, cause it feels so good and so right .

Calcutta walks

On the afternoon when the Nor'westers provided a welcome relief from the heat and dust of summer, Pinoo and me went on a small walk near Chowringhee. We walked along Harrington Street passing the newly inaugurated Rabindranath Tagore Centre for Culture. It is not an impressive building but it has a modern earthy appeal. They have a quaint little cafe, which was unfortunately shut. I'm sure this is going to our new haunt for those long conversations we have over tea. We then walked down to Camac street and landed up in Vardaan market for some chutpatta street food. There were Chilla, puchka, jhaal muri, kulfi stalls all lined up to entice our taste buds. We further walked down to Middleton Row, passing my newly-painted school and church. We then headed for Park street and came across a vendor selling a very funny headgear. The moment you blow the whistle attached to it, two little horns come up on your head. I tried hard to convince Pinoo to don the headgear but he's just so shy. I love making him do embarrassing things like walking with a swagger in the middle of a busy Park Street evening. On the way to the metro station, an old frail woman asked us for help to pay for her medical treatment in a hospital. Pinoo paid her believing she may be genuinely true. And then we said our goodbyes and headed to our respective destinations.

LOSER

For the record, I am not voting in the ongoing 15th Lok Sabha General Election 2009. Shame on me!!
