A Colorful Temple
January 27, 2016
One can find a temple in almost every nook and corner of Bangalore. Sometimes you see very small ones with a lamp and few incense sticks and sometimes you get to visit the famous ones like the Iskon. I spotted this one in Shivajinagar which is one of the most busy areas of Bangalore and luckily … More A Colorful Temple
It was 19th December, 2005..
January 19, 2016
It was a cold December afternoon. Sixty hearts were pounding with nervousness and throats had gone dry even without the Sun outside. A day before, sixty students had taken written tests and then a couple who had made through the written test had appeared in two rounds of interview – Technical and HR. The results were being read out that afternoon … More It was 19th December, 2005..
#MicroblogMondays – Kannada Classes Have Begun
January 11, 2016
Last July when I started taking Kannada lessons on whatspp, I realized that the language is close to Sanskrit and not that hard to learn. I now know basic words and it’s fun learning from others when they correct my mistakes. The best part is feeling a sense of belonging with the city due to the language connection. Last … More #MicroblogMondays – Kannada Classes Have Begun
#WomenAtWork – A flower vendor
January 3, 2016
I am a flower vendor. This pavement is my workplace and the chaos around my music. While I sit with these flowers, I don’t have many to talk to. Customers here and there but not the same everyday. They bargain and want flowers, sometimes for God or their vehicles. Sometimes for their hair. I sit alone … More #WomenAtWork – A flower vendor
Photo Friday #2 – Glass
November 27, 2015
Glass is non-crystalline solid which can be shaped into many forms. From bulbs that remove darkness to colorful bangles, from tumblers to vases, from mirrors to decoration items – it takes many shapes and when colored it looks even more beautiful. I saw this chandelier yesterday and the little chiseled pieces were very beautiful together. The lights between … More Photo Friday #2 – Glass
Sun kissed plants after it rained
November 25, 2015
I was reading Nabanita’s post this morning and couldn’t agree more. For over two weeks, Bangalore has been under this spell of low pressure area from Bay of Bengal. While we all enjoy a cuppa during rains, incessant rainfall has been disrupting the easy flow of life. This Saturday was a very welcome change. The … More Sun kissed plants after it rained
A frustrated Bangalorean
November 17, 2015
Yes, I am frustrated. To such an extent that it was visible on my face the moment I entered office. Instead of opening up the laptop and plugging it in, I opened the lunch bag and took out the boxes. My peers were at my desk and they were kind enough to give me some time by … More A frustrated Bangalorean
The sounds I hear..
November 5, 2015
I woke up tired this morning. My muscles were sore with the Yoga I did in last two days. This is normal when there is a change in the routine which I recently had. My body was telling me to switch the alarm off and sleep again. I did exactly as I was told. So, after work … More The sounds I hear..
The make-me-look-beautiful business
October 21, 2015
A friend of mine is getting married and I have been accompanying her for many things related to planning and like wise. One important thing on the list was fixing a salon for her. We went to a couple of major brands and since I am not very knowledgeable in this field, feeling out-of-place was my first … More The make-me-look-beautiful business
