*s of April

Star of the Month : North Star…Guiding me towards my goal i.e. move north to TH soon.

Fruit of the Month : Pink Naval Orange. I’ve eaten one everyday and I love it. I’s juicy and sweet and easy to peel.

Vegetable of the month : Cabbage. I re-found my love for this vegetable. So simple and clean in taste. Also I finally figured out how to chop them the right way.

Sport of the Month : Tennis. TH has started teaching me how to play. I have picked up a few tips. I am not good at it but like doing it with him.

Exercise of the Month : Row.. I think its helping my  extra fat burn on my arms.

Love of the month : Me. Happy Birthday to me! I had a very nice day. TH gave me some lovely gifts and flowers and I loved myself all month for the way I have been very patient with everyone

Hate of the month: Self doubt. I’ve been going thro’ ups and downs a real lot this month about many many things which I am unsure of …my work taking the prize.

The Notebook made me bawl

So I’ve heard a tonne about this movie from K who says she cries everytime she sees this movie and she asked J to give the DVD for her bday. So I figured I’d see it too. Romantic movies are no show when TH and I decide on a movie..so I ordered it on Netflix and saw it tonight. TH is away on SC on work and had gone to bed early. So we said our goodnights  by 9 . So I popped in the DVD. So the movie starts out fine and everything and I figure out that the old lady is Allie pretty soon but couldn’t figure out the guy. But I stopped thinking much and watched. I thought all the characters was portrayed very well and as the movie was in its last 30 minutes I felt tears trickling down my cheeks. And then it stopped. And when Noah starts crying when Allie flips out about him being a stranger, tears again. And then I thought Noah died  and was saying aloud..oh please don’t die…and finally when the movie ends I was bawling. I couldn’t stop myself. I wanted TH there with me  and then I started thinking about the long distance marriage we’re working on and that made me cry even more. It took quite a bit of water and head as opposed to heart thinking to calm myself. The end of the movie was what opened all the flood gates for me. Everyone in love wants togetherness and love forever. No matter however big or small you are at the end of the day saying a few special words and showing care and respect to each other will take you far ahead in your life

Shoe size -3 for Baby Star

Another Sunday night of no sleep but I am not going to whine this time. Whining led to antsy parents & in-laws all week and that wasn’t fun for TH and I. We landed up devising plans to reassure them which is an added pressure of us having to reassure each other considering our long distance situation. Anyhoo today after lunch as usual I sat with my nail kit to start with my weekly removal and replacement of polish. I was impatient to file my nails and cut them close. TH as usual wanted to make fun of my weekly ritual but this time he asked me to clip his feet nails cuz he had not last week. They weren’t really long by even my standards for guys(who are supposed to have short clean nails) but I agreed to do it. My ulterior motive was to tickle his feet. grownup BUT whatevah! Not that I haven’t noticed it earlier but I said aloud to TH that he had huge feet. Little star’s feet are not Cinderella sized either  but I realized that Baby stars are going to be born with size 3 feet. I secretly want the in-law genes for small feet. Wishing before Baby star is created. Hope that’s enough time for God to custom make Baby Star.

I cut TH’s nails without ticking him since Baby Star clouded my normal thought process. My deep red polish was all over my cuticles when I felt Baby Star kicking me with size 3 feet.

Another Sleepless Sunday night

I got back from TH’s place two hours back and its high time I was asleep considering the fact that I have a crazy busy day tomorrow. But my brain refuses to shut down for today. TH and I had a tough evening of saying goodbye. I broke down after realizing it might take a really long time before we shared the same roof on a daily basis. This totally sucks and my problems seem the biggest in the world today to me. Thus the reason for sleeplessness. Hoping for a calmer day tomorrow

*s of March

Star of the month : SUN…..It is the source of all we know and also the husband’s name it is. I am going to see and feel more of it starting this month. Also being loyal to our solar (hehe) system in my first * of the month.

Fruit of the month : Pineapple…Tastes good. Easy on the pocket. Comes cored here. Color of the Sun and hence the warm feeling when I eat it.

Vegetable of the month : Taro…Tastes good when made right…the south indian iyer way. I am going to enjoy it till I am letting myself eat stuff deep fried.

Sport of the month : Basketball…March madness is always a time to look forward to.

Exercise of the month : Crunches…On the exercise ball nothing feels better than good old crunches aching the muscles.

Love of the month : The husband(TH) ofcourse…Easter weekend was relaxing and put some zing into our lives. One year since we got engaged. TH’s b’day month. TH and I bought our first big thing- a new(er) car for me.

Hate of the month : Sunday night insomnia from missing TH and travel to see TH…This is prolly going to feature as my hate every month. TH and I are long-distance married.

Special of the month : P.O’s wedding to M….I can’t be there for P.O but I am hoping the best of everything for him and M.

New one!

New blog…new identity…lets see how long this lasts
