Diwali Dhamakas

Most persons have a different kind of Dhamaka in mind when they talk of Diwali. It has more to do with the crackers and candles and the umpteen different types of noise producing fireworks than anything else.

But me, being a tad different from all and sundry and with an IQ of above average as recently determined (I was pissed I wasn't a genius, I'm sure that dumb test was all conked out), I tend to associate the word Dhamaka with something a little more explosive.

So here I am, back at home, gorging on mouth watering delicacies - the gujjias, the peanut pattis, the laddoos, the barfis, not to mention the vada-pav, bhel, pulao, chole and other such rich dishes designed to appease the strictest of palates. I eat as if my life depends on it. Is it a wonder that post Diwali my weight increases in multiples of 100? That's some Dhamaka!

Happy Diwali!

And yeah, I'm going on a diet. Again.

Un jour de ma vie

D'habitude je me revéille vers 6h30 du matin. Je prepare le petit déjeuner et je prends le petit déjeuner vers 7h. Ensuite, je vais au bureau vers 7h30 en voiture de mon petit ami. Il s'appelle Sonu. Il est très beau!

Maintenant, en bureau, je travaille tout le jour. Je prends le déjeuner vers 13h et je reste pour 10 minute puis. J'ai beaucoup des amis dans mon bureau. C'est très bonne place!

Je retourne à ma maison vers 17h. Ensuite, je fais de ménage, je lave mon vêtements et je prepare le dîner. Vers 22h de la nuit, je suis très fatigué et je vais dormir.

Pendant le week-end, je fais du shopping avec mon petit ami. J'adore faire du shopping! Mon petit ami offres moi petit cadeaux. Il est très très doux, n'est-ce pas?

Oh là là! Déjà neuf heures! Je vais! Salut tout le monde! À bientôt!

My Tryst with Destiny

I kinda liked the sound of that. Makes me look like a Gandhi and all.

I wish...

....that I didn't have to go to office on Mondays. Or Tuesdays. Well, or for that matter Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays either.

The Atom Bomb Bhajji

I love junk food. Considering I'm on a diet (all the time), trying to lose weight, this junk food business is kinda not too good for me. But me, I like to live life king size. So I make a deal with myself - I will diet over the weekdays and binge on the weekends.

One of the reasons I look forward to a Friday is the thought of gorging on chilli-bhajjis - and I know just the place that makes real atom bombs. These 'Atom Bomb Bhajjis' as I fondly call them are nothing short of the nuclear variety. For one, they are huge enough to be mistaken for surface-to-surface missiles. And next, they are spicy and hot as hell (trust me, I would know. Being 'devil' and all).

My upper limit on these is 4. The minute I try to eat more, I spend the rest of the day (and night) in the loo. Come to think of it, that sort of works for my diet plan. Eat all you want and then poo it all. :-)

Something Fishy

I absolutely adore fish. No, not to look at and gawk at cooing all over the place, but to tuck into with a fork and a knife.

And to think I used to be a vegetarian!

Ah, well, there is still hope for humanity.
