Hello World!
yes. Yes. YES. I am alive. I really am A-L-I-V-E.
This year, the past 9 months, just whizzed past! I achieved a lot of things really dear to my heart, but had to ignore a lot of other favorites. This is coming off age, as they say. I think. One doesn't have to like all of it, but most of it will do.
In my case, I love 80% of it. The remaining 20%? Stuff and bother!
Good things:
- We are almost done with furnishing our home. Barring a few new furniture to be bought OR be rid of, everything, including lights, are in place - yay! We have a beautiful home together now. Can only wish that the approach roads and the management committee members improve. High hopes, I know.
- I started on a full-time job again. Yep. It has been nice, so far.
- We started taking French classes together. It is a lot of fun in the class. The only thing is, I am unable to give it my full attention. There are a million other things to do at work and home.
- Ma Belle celebrated her first birthday and then her first year with us! I love her so, So, SO much!
- I gifted myself a Macbook Pro! This is my most priced possession for now! The best gift I have given self.
- Arvi has taken the initiative of starting an iPhone aps firm. Still some ways to go. He seems to be enjoying this phase and gets to spend a lot of time pursuing his other loisirs. He is doing pretty well at French too.
- Finally read Beedle the Bard, which was last year's Rakhi gift to me.
- My brother-in-law visited me in Bangalore for the first time in the 7 years that he has been married to my sister for :P
The bads:
- Haven't worked on my book even for a millisecond, in the past 5 months.
- Haven't read any book barring Beedle the Bard for about the same time frame.
- Haven't been able to spare time on studying French or watching enough World Cinema as I would like.
- Haven't spent quality time with my mum and dad :(
- Federer lost his bid on the 6th U.S. Open title. Sob!
- No time for Livejournal or Facebook or Flickr. Sigh!
I think this is just about enough for today. I don't mean to vanish for another 4 months, but I may.
