Thoughts...

Above all, be yourself. If someone has a problem with that, well, that's their problem

Paper quilling






                                   Recently was searching something in the web while came across paper quilling, thought it was a difficult thing, but after going through the videos found it so easy and so tried it. The papers used here are our normal book sheets and not those used for paper quilling, hence the shabbiness.

Cheating Cheating Everywhere....

Things happen to me in such a way dat I do get cheated very often. Might be bcoz I am not dat aware or bcoz I am an easy prey....In malayalam there is a saying, "Only when you allow people, they can cheat you" might be truee!!!!

                     This was a very recent incident. Last Friday I and my husband went to the market and entered the fish market. We went to each section and in one section was a heap of Mackerel Horse. We could see it was so fresh (by the way now I could differentiate :D). The man there even showed us the gills, one should notice that these fishes were facing the customer, the ones that were fres. So happy we bought the fish, I did notice him taking fish from the other end (i.e. the side facing him). We people too ignorant, bought the fish home.

       Then we made our way to the Vegetable market. Here we were allowed to select things, put those in a plastic cover and hand it over to the man there, he will weigh it and put on the bill. After handing him the parcel, we saw him adding extra vegs than we had selected, we thought it is because u need to get a round figure while calculating the money. We bought the veggies and arrived home.

                        First opening the fish was a shock, he had not kept those fresh fishes at all. Next was the veggies cover, oops those vegs that the man selected were either half spoiled or rotten :(...

                      I have heard stories of cheating in friut markets were, we'll be selecting the fruit, the man gets them goes down with the fruits to take a newspaper or a cover to pack them, he hands over the fruit and u come home to find rotten ones.

I have eyes behind my head

While I was young, I do imagine a lot, think a lot but I don't remember when and where I did leave this habit of mine. Now I dont like to think and also imagine, I do usually say, "I dont like using my brain". Well dropin dat out.

As a kid I used to believe whatever my anyone told, and the worst is I go on imagining those..

One fine day I drew a picture and all happy ran all way to the kitchen. My mom was busy cooking, I stood near the door and said, "Amma i drew a picture, look at this amma". My mom dint even turn back and she told, "It lookz nice". Then i got my doubts, i asked her, "amma u dint even turn then how did u say my picture is good?"....She told me, "u see i have eyes at the back of my head"...I went away....and then I slowly touched the back side of my head, i ran my fingers through my hair, but i dint feel like havin eyes dere. I thought, might be when i grow up, i too will get eyes at the back of my head....Funny eh, but itz trueee i did think like this...

Then comes my father who says, "dont eat the seeds of fruits", and as usual i asked him why, might be he thought i was too young to understand about digestion nd all, he told me "see from the seeds comes tree, so if u eat seeds, these will go into ur stomach and then grow off into trees"....My little mind started imagining, so the tree will let off itz branches from my mouth and then will give off fruits, den i thought, people will pluck the fruits from my trees branches and i will be roaming around like that.....Funny isn't it...but true...
