I just love my daily travel in the electric train. Initially, I thought of listening to music / reading books while travelling, but later, I stopped all that and now, I just enjoy looking at things around me...
What I have noticed many times is, people getting into a First Class compartment in a hurry and then they would rush to the next compartment in the next station.
There was this couple who once boarded the FC compartment, without looking at the board. Then a person standing near the door told the man, "Sir, ithu first class." The lady was just getting ready to get down. The man told her to wait. He said, unless someone comes for checking, we wont have any problem. Now, the guy who warned them, got angry.... actually, he was the person who was checking tickets and they had to pay heavy fine...
Ithu romba thevaiya?

Excuse me...
Hi...
Needless to say, I ve been a terrible blogger of late... but let me start now... better late than never.
I saw the movie 2012... after a big struggle to get tickets... I enjoyed the movie.
Dont know how far it is true... but if something like that happened, how would it be???
Anyways, it just set me thinking (pls dont laugh yaar, I THINK OK?)
So here s my list of what I would want to do in case someone gives a guarantee that world IS going to end..
1. Visit / call, all my friends and relatives
2. Venice.... I want to see this place just once... :)
3. Watch some movies which have been pending since long
And... well, cant think of much at the moment.
Do comment with what you ll do... (I know this is a very pessimistic idea... but it s ok...what say?)
And then, lot of updates here.
As some of you would know, I am crazy with this Farmville. (though now I am not as addicted as I used to be).
I guess this may be one of the reasons for less blogging!
And I went to some new restaurants (as usual) I just love going to new places and trying out the food there
I went to Crimson Chakra (Adyar), Blur cafe (Satyam), Tandoori Tadka (T Nagar), Flamingo (Velachery), Centre Point (OMR).... etc
Guess, I should start writing reviews in a separate blog (haa haa)
And with this year coming to an end, I (again) been lamenting about how fast time flies... but every new year has another happiness tagged to it.. My Birthday in Jan... I am still crazy about my birthday... Dont know why... I still love the excitement attached to it.
Well, I guess enough of a "nothing-much-to-write-about" blog! Will try to post something "proper" next time. I said "try to" OK? :)
B Bye,
Prabha.

Perfect Morning...
I, usually, get up by 6.30 AM... Yesterday night I decided to take a break and sleep for a bit longer
But I woke up at the usual time... There was nothing much to be done at home at this time... The rain had made me lazy...:)
I made a nice cup of tea... took some biscuits... and settled in my balcony... spent about half an hour gazing at the raindrops... enjoying every bit of it!
Rain + Tea + Biscuits... Wah! kya combintion hai...

Diwali = FUN!
I really enjoy this time of the year...
Diwali, to me, is lots of shopping, making sweets, meeting friends & relatives and having lots of fun.
So, my Diwali shopping started with a designer Saree followed by shopping for my parents, in laws and Prabu.
Didn't buy many crackers this year... just some sparklers, flower pot and ground wheel.
I distributed Diwali sweets in my colony a bit early this year... It was so nice to meet so many people... I made couple of good friends in the process! :)
And today I will be making one sweet and one other snack. Will post on that after successful completion of the task...
Am waiting for tomorrow as I ll be going to my cousins place for a biiiiig family get together and after visiting some more relatives, will be back home for Diwali celebrations.
Do write about your pre Diwali and Diwali experiences!
Have a happy and safe diwali...

Movie season!
Well, looks like it s raining movies here!
I saw two more ... Ninaithale inikkum and Unnaipol Ourvan (UPO)...
The first one was ok... not very impressive. But it was definitely ok after Kandasamy.
Only the last fifteen minutes of the first half were gripping, which made us stay till the end (we had planned to walk out in the interval). The songs are catchy. I liked Shakti's character and his performance. Could not accept Prithviraj as a college student (even though it was final year).
Overall... Not bad
UPO was good one... Had just seen "A wednesday" last week... So, no big suspense factor. But for the "K" factor (you know, the usual "peter" stuff from Kamal),the movie was nice with neat performances by all. Thouroughly enjoyed the movie as it was short and sweet... just for 2 hrs.
I guess a detailed review will spoil the "suspense" element, if you have not seen the movie... So, I will stop with this :)
Ok... I will take a break from my movie reviews in my next post.

Kandasamy.. Nondhasamy... Venthasamy
Ya... you must have guessed from the title... I DIDNT like the movie...
Heard from some people that the movie is sick.. but didnt have much choice as we wanted to go for "some" movie.. this was the only one available (well, atleast THAT should have made me think!)
Let me first list down what all I didnt like in the movie (though the other way would be shorter!)
1. This is about a "super hero"... He sings, dances, and "cock-a-doodle-do"s before hitting the bad guy
2. The heroine is the villian s daughter (no points for guessing this) who hardly wears anything... She really spoilt the songs and some scenes because of her dresses , voice (which didnt suit her at all) and her bad lip sync.
3. The songs were a big disappointment... I liked the audio of some of them ... the visuals were sick...also, the dance for "Allegra" was pathetic...
4. The plot itself is a big minus... Though the director claims that the story was written before Anniyan...we cant help feeling that we are watching a "jugalbandi" of all (or most of) Shankar s movies. There is nothing new..
5. The length of the movie... the second half just keeps going on and on and on and on...
6. Though the script didnt have anything very interesting, the first half was tolerable... in the second half of the story, the director seemed to be lost. He brought in himself as an "important" character and bugged us to death...
7. Everyone in the movie... (except Prabu and the villian) is helping the hero... very bugging beyond a point...
8. Vadivelu's comedy... very pathetic.
Ok... stop calling me a pessimist... I also liked somethings in the movie..
1. Songs (but not all..just 3... there s this song dedicated for PIZZA... how cool na?grrrrr !!!!)
2. Music
3. Background score
aaaaaa ok... ya, I mean in other words... Music only.
I know this is a high budget movie made with a good intention... adopting villages stuff. They could have adopted some more villages if they didnt waste so much money on this movie
If you have seen this movie, hope you will understand my feelings (sob!)
If you are going to watch it... dont tell me I didnt warn you.
Keep smiling :)

It s my life!
Ever noticed how priorities keep changing for all of us?
I have noticed that...
Well, when I was in school, I had no priorities.... probably, I didnt think much.... used to live life "Just like that"... no tension... no worries... My friends J & B will know ... It was FUN.
In college, things started changing... esp in the 3rd and 4th year... exams... placements... etc etc
End of college, when my parents started the Great Groom Search (ok... I AM exaggerating), things started changing again... Who, where, what , how etc etc.
The D Day came soon when I met Prabu... Liked his family so much... And when we were talking.... Took a glance at him....ya, maybe, that s him!!! And so it was....
Since then my life has been revolving around him...
So many changes... But life is just getting better each time...(of course with its roller coaster ups and downs).
But over all, when I take a look at my life...I feel that everything s for good... I have always wanted to be in a family like this... and I feel sometimes, that I have always got more than what I wanted / asked for....
Maybe that s why (and that s when), God gave me a push...
probably to remind myself that Life is a mixture of everything...
probably to make me understand how strong I am...
probably for making me understand how nice and supportive people are around me...
whatever, I still have no regrets... I still am happy to be where I am... God has His own plans for me... I will accept whatever He gives... Smiling as always... :)
Because when He gave me good things (more than I expected), I never complained... So, now, when He s showing me the other side, I think it is my duty to accept this also.
What say friends? :)
