I AM


Selectively extroverted. Madcap. A Worry-wart. Intuitive. Loving. That's how I described myself in my profile previously and that's who I still am. Then why the separate page ? Well...a whim...a desire to change things around here a bit...

I am a little bit of everything I said before and a bit more. I am an actress, a theatre facilitator, an HRD professional, a daughter, a sister, a wife, a lover of all arts, fiercely protective of my loved ones, weird, a very accurate people-reader, a prankster, sometimes very intense, the go-to person in most of my friendships, usually the person in the room who is the quickest to laugh and laughs the loudest and a great friend - even if I say so myself :)

I started reading blogs much before I began blogging. So much so that now, blog-reading forms a large part of my overall reading. I seek variety. So I read many blogs regularly, ranging from the make-you-think type to funny ones to food blogs to parent blogs to fashion blogs...you get the picture ? 

I started this blog to share snippets from my life with anybody who cared to read it :) I have, of course, been so irregular a blogger that I still remain more of a reader than blogger. Every couple of months I seriously vow to change that. Today (24 July 2012, for the record!) is one such day when I've decided that I'm going to write more often. Let's see how that goes, eh ?

Oh yeah, my interests ? Same as I had mentioned previously ... People, Reading, People-reading, Theatre, Films, Music, French, Trees, Dogs-the four legged variety, Talking..., etc. etc.

So, Welcome here !

How NOT to compère a function

Recently I attended an awards ceremony. It was a grand function with a huge audience in attendance. Many awards were given and some speeches too. The compère was, unintentionally, terribly funny ! In this function, when the compère announced the first award winner, he announced, “Please welcome on stage Mr. X (pause) married to (pause) wife Mrs. X (pause) from 1977 and successfully (pause) completed 32 years of (pause) married life…” I had tears in my eyes from laughing too hard :D Later, the same compère, while telling the audiences about a certain award winner, said, “…he is married (pause) to wife Mrs. Z (pause) and enjoys playing with his (pause) children K and M. His favourite (pause) holiday destination is (pause) the beaches (pronounced as ‘bitches’) of (pause) Goa” I nearly died choking with laughter for this one ! In the 45 minutes that he was on stage he was responsible for much hilarity due to his totally inappropriate commentary. I, of course, laughed my guts out and what c

‘Geographically challenged’

I laughed my guts out while reading this . Then I had another bout of laughter thinking of all the incidents that happen with me. For a long time now I have known that I am, what I like to call, ‘geographically challenged’ :) Situation 1 - If I go inside a building (happens mostly with residential buildings), then after I exit the lift (elevator) or come down the stairs, I cannot quickly locate the gate ! Situation 2 - If I am inside a building, I will routinely point in wrong directions to indicate places outside the building. Situation 3 - I am presently at office. I have come here from home. Now I have to go to some place where I have always gone from home and never from office. What do I do ? I go home first and from there I go to that place. It doesn’t matter if it is a longer distance or takes more time. I have to do this, because simply have no mechanism to re-align my mental map to my present location ! Situation 4 - Another thing is that if I have come to your place in
