The title of this post not only reflects the weather, but my state of mind too.Perhaps it’s because of the weather that I’m feeling better? I don’t have S.easonal A.ffective D.isorder do I?Anyway…I have seen a few things about myself. I pretend I’m committed to my family, but actually I’m annoyed with some members. ImpactContinueContinue reading “Here comes the Sun”

Survivalism
OhMyGodI have to wax lyrical about NIN.I love the band. I have for quite a while now.Before NIN I was of the opinion that if it wasn’t played with bass, drums, guitars, vocals, it wasn’t music.I’m not sure which particular song changed my opinion. But it seems that there are quite a dedicated fanbase outContinueContinue reading “Survivalism”
Back In Black
Well…lots has been happening in the time since I last posted. People have turned 30, got married, and got ill.It’s made me think how much circumstances can dictate my feelings, my mood, my outlook, my productivity, everything. It’s as if my circumstances dictate my life, almost as if I’m a victim to them.That doesn’t leaveContinueContinue reading “Back In Black”
Come Together
I think it’s easy to be cynical.As anyone who knows me will be aware, I am passionate about my cultural community: the Goan community. I’m part of the committee that runs the Young London Goans’ Society (YLGS).It’s frustrating and satisfying in equal measure, and I suppose that’s what makes it enjoyable. The full range ofContinueContinue reading “Come Together”
Down with the Sickness
Today I am ill.Today I am getting better.Me being me, I stand in being responsible. And Conversations with God kind of says the same thing.I can’t help thinking that I’m confronted about something, or avoiding something. It may be the wedding? (That’s a serious business). Or perhaps I’m just burning the candle at both endsContinueContinue reading “Down with the Sickness”
It Takes Blood and Guts To Be This Cool But I'm Still Just A Cliché
Eats shoots and leaves: The Zero Tolerance Approach to Punctuation Being the internet whore that I am, and having far too many online profiles, I’m appalled at the usage of English I see everywhere. Actually, it’s not just online… OK, so maybe I’m becoming one of those annoying punctuation zealots, (Lynn Truss anyone?) but badContinueContinue reading “It Takes Blood and Guts To Be This Cool But I'm Still Just A Cliché”
Midlife Crisis
I’m beginning to think that there’s such a thing as a quarter-life crisis.It’s one of my (many) pet theories and explanations about life, the universe and everything. (See one of the joys of having a blog is getting to spout my opinion on it all and people will read it…right?)It seems to be a conversationContinueContinue reading “Midlife Crisis”
Bullet In Your Head
Ok.I have finally…finally…at long last written something here because of an online friend (who shall remain nameless to avoid embarrassment).They keep asking if I’ve updated it…and it’s been a month or more since I said I would…Not very good eh!I gotta say though – what a 2007 already? After returning to school, everyone seemed toContinueContinue reading “Bullet In Your Head”
Underachiever
Generally, being self-absorbed is not a good thing.Getting told that I’m self-absorbed by various important people who ‘know me best’ is not nice.I guess one has to be pretty self-absorbed to have a blog on the internet (but at the end of it all, it depends on one’s intention and purpose…)On the one hand, I’mContinueContinue reading “Underachiever”
Step Down
I keep hearing this word integrity passed about everywhere. I think people don’t know what it means. It’s all in my face right now because I’m not perfect. It’s more of the same I’ve had on my blog: who I’ve let down, what’s happened now, the frustration of it all, taking it personally and allContinueContinue reading “Step Down”
