AOL
I have decided to spam this blog with all the vetti things I am doing in this brief vacation. Yeah, first i changed the layout of the blog - for the better or worse! So, today its going to be about this Art of living course I attended. My mom stared at me weirdly when I told her I am going to attend. Mainly because I do not classify in the "aacharamana iyer girl" who knows lots of slokas and goes to temple everyday and transforms to "vandhel ponel" when the same breed is spotted. And she thought only people with that "aptitude" will attend such courses. Anyways, I wanted to attend one of these courses because i was simply curious about it and had a lot of time on my hands. It was a five day course and making long things short, you do a lot of breathing exercises and lots of comical things which you wouldn't generally do in front of a bunch of people. The instructor did hype it up a little bit on the last few days saying "guru ji has entered you now and you are a free soul" and all that kind of stuff. That part of it didn't appeal to me because though I respect people such as him who spread this wave of humanity in different forms, I cannot get myself to worship them. I am not an atheist though. But, again, I believe that god has too many problems to look at and your fight with your boyfriend is the last thing he needs to solve. He/she would be mighty happy if you help yourself and help others rather than building an idol of him/her in gold. Coming back to the point. I met one "I want to make fraandhsip with you" case during the course who was quite irritating. Despite all this, the whole point is that I left the course with a good feeling. Though I heard the same advice I already knew, I left swearing to myself that I ll never go unhappy again. I was surprised to see how a simple breathing pattern can influence your mind and replenish your thoughts. Progressively, during the five days, I started seeing the futility of the petty ego clashes between me and my father and I decided to break them every time. My mom found me much more cheerful than before. Other people who attended had much more illustrative experiences like an old lady who had a severe neck problem now did not feel the pain at all. I made lots of friends too - from all age groups :) . Well, I am not campaigning for it or anything. But if you have the time, do try and attend the course. Or recommend it to somebody who is in real bad shape. It will definitely be a worthwhile experience and might even help clear that clutter in your head or somebody else's!

Random
Statutory Warning : This post may not make any sense.
Yeah that was my latest. Afterwards, I was trying to draw a small girl bending over a worm. Somehow she started frowning. I put it away. Guess it was not meant to be today. I dreamt that the plant where the worm was sitting was a man eater plant. I dreamt that we were giggling and she touched the worm and she suddenly disappeared. Oh my god, I killed her I thought! She later reappeared and said I just had to rush to pee! I didnt finish the painting after that. I like travelling by buses. Why the hell is there so much traffic even on a saturday afternoon. This lady with a kid got in. I made that kid sit on my lap. She would keep quiet until her mom was looking at her and smile and giggle. If her mom even took her eyes off her she would start squealing. What did that guy in the movie say .. Kids forgive, they don't judge, they turn the other cheek, and what do they get for it.. simple and so true. They just need you to love them. They dont understand why you abuse each other so much. The kid just wants somebody to tell him that the tree he drew is real good, that she is our dear own sweet girl forever, that we are proud of the shapeless card he cut out for you. The Asha Teacher was talking to me. She was saying "we want to do a lot of things, but the government teachers do not cooperate. They do what is necessary to satisfy the inspectors." We spoke for hours. She finally said "Please help us ma'am, come to our school". We left. Its not a one day job, let it sink in. Toss and turn it around. Well, I need to go there soon . I was dreaming and I almost missed my stop. She was singing, "Say it's true, there's nothing like me and you .Not alone, tell me you feel it too .And I would runaway ,I would runaway, yeah, I would runaway with you." Do you understand that I get angry and shout only coz I cannot stand the separation. Sometimes I just dont want to say what I feel. I wish you. would understand. You are supposed to understand I think. Maybe its unfair. I need to paint. Throw in some colours and relax and let them take shape. I am not unhappy but sometimes.. only sometimes I feel I am just hanging in there.

I WONDER !
Most days of the month,you would find me in a train ,a bus or on any other means of transport than on my postal adress and among all other positives of travelling extensively the best one i would say is the opprtunity and the time it gives me to reflect and think on my life,my work,my relationship and goals and dreams in life.It shows you or rather reminds you of the way other people live their lives ranging from seeing a range rover pass by to a person on all fours trying to go up a 50 step stairs at a crowded railway station.It exposes you to happiness,anger,distress,frustration.desperation(oh yes! you see that a lot !),hunger,poverty and a plethora of feelings,lifestyles and various other aspects of life.
One of the issues that bother me or rather interest me on these travels is the meaning of life.Now what i mean is not in a phlosophical,J K way or a dalai lama way but in a more interesting or rather engaging way.Why is it that we do,what we do in a certain way ? why is it that some times you see people doing the same job day in and day out every other day of their life ?Why is it that at times,this journey take all the expected turns and just when it gets boring and mechanical,you slip on the u turn round the corner ?Why is it that that guy who goes begging on all fours ends up doing that all his life ? Is it really beacuse he was meant to do that ?is it destiny or fate as they call it ?
What is the meaning of life i wonder !

Pulse
"aama paati! thatha ku paal kudithitten!"(translates to "Yes grandma! I gave grandpa milk!":) ) Sorry people, that was for paati. I am sitting next to her bed. I keep asking her to sleep but she never listens. After a series of wild educated guesses by different doctors, she has been finally diagnosed with Parkinson's. She is just lying down after a tiresome process of having porridge. I think today she ll catch some sleep after all all the physio she got.
Well, has been quite a while since my last post. I was also stuck in hospital a few months back. How did the events go ? Oh yeah! Here goes - one painful wisdom tooth, mild fever, no place for tooth, pulled it out and left with a sore gum, headed to citi center the next day for a meet up, sipped everybody's juices to ease the pain, slept through my way back in the bus and ended up at some arbit bus stand, staggered my way back home with high fever, office bunk day 1, office bunk day 2, office bunk day3, doctor, blood test ,rock bottom platelet count!!, admitted in ICU at ****** hospital!! ICU !! I never thought I ll see one!!! And I am going to be IN an ICU!!Are you kidding me!! Machines, real sick people, some at the brink of death.. I asked them why I was here! They said if your condition is not controlled, it could lead to internal bleeding of organs. I already had blood while puking. So, there I was, in the ICU, reading novels, with this whole bunch of packets of platelets being injected into me. I was having fun looking at everybody and chatting with the doctors. The doctors asked me if I was an athlete coz the pulse rate alarms that were attached to me would start screaming in the night beeping a low pulse rate. Apparently, my resting pulse rate was lower than average, like an athlete. They said its a sign of a good heart and is because of my gymming :) Everything was going on well,until, on that fateful day, the head nurse grew impatient. I guess she was bored with me or may be they needed an extra bed. For some reason, she increased the speed at which the platelets were being injected. I just knew that, suddenly, I was jerking, teeth chattering with blood spurting out of my mouth. It wouldn't stop.I thought I would just die like that. There was no energy in me to summon. It was like all my reservoirs had dried out. My mom , who had come to give me a new novel,stood shocked. I can imagine what she would have gone through. She shouted.. blasted the doctor. The doctor freaked out and asked us to move to Apollo hospital. It was midnight by then. I was taken in a doctor equipped ambulance. With all those bottles and tubes injecting fluids and oxygen into me. And I was brought out of the ambulance, you know in that cinematic style, where the people keep running along with the patient screaming out their name. My mom was running along. Just that she was not screaming, she was crying. So, I ended up in the MICU(most intensive care unit). I was apparently in real bad shape. I couldn't move out of bed to do any toiletry stuff. It had to be in the bed. :( More than anything else, I used to be ashamed to call the nurses for that. Those people are the real saints. I know that, most of us, even if paid a million dollars, wouldn't do such stuff. You really need a brilliant atitude and an overwhelming love for humanity to become a nurse. Anyways, next to me,separated by a screen was a young lady on a life support system. She was cheated by her friend who staged her suicide. She was, by god's grace, somehow saved, but she had lost all senses and lost all connection to the world. Everyday, during visiting hours(one hour a day), when my mom would come and sit with me, her husband would come and play their child's recorded crying and try to wake her up. "Look at me, your kid is here. He played with his truck today.See he is smiling." Poor girl :( My problems were nothing. How can somebody destroy somebody's life like that. What the hell are we made of. Like somebody said, you make all the people in the world throw their problems and pile them up, you would immediately feel ashamed and remove your's from the pile. So, I recuperated, slowly. One day, the nurse came and asked me shall i remove the oxygen mask. I said" no! i am not able to breathe!". She said "ok !your wish!". The next day, I said may be we ll try removing it today. She smiled and said I had switched it off even before asking you yesterday. Its just a little bit of confidence your heart should have in the brain and the body. Our body is capable of so many things, if only the heart would it let it be. Open your mind and heart to everything. This is something I learnt and felt there everyday. So, making long things short, I was then moved into the ICU and then to the normal ward and then to the hospital room. Learning to walk, balance, painful physio for my thrombosis hand, eating nice food(apollo food rocks :D ), friends, phone calls,catching up with office, bla bla bla. .. I was well. And then I got out of hospital and was so pissed off with N and messaged him saying "fyi i am alive". And like they say the rest is history :).
Paati will walk very soon. I just wish her heart would believe that.

"take care not to spill it all over"
My career in marketing ensures that im always on the move and the odds are that on any day you would rather find me on a bike,a bus or train than at my office.The other day i was on my way to my hometown,the day being the month end.I was travelling in a superfast train ( i wonder with respect to what ? :) ),not really crowded full of college going kids,dreading to head back to college as usual( aah how i used too hate mondays while in college,sem exams,DISCO,practicals,records,the only good thing was going back to your friends,and yes those naps in your friends hostel room,im yet to find any room as cosy,warm and welcoming as those hostel rooms :)).
ya,so let me get back to what i was talking about.what was it ? ha trains !!
Trains, in our country, are one of the most fascinating and intriguing places to me.Those dirty sleeper coaches,the call of the tiger( chaaya chaaye !! vada vadai !! you know sometimes,its really difficult to comprehend as to what they are roaring about if you cant see what he is selling),those cramped side births,the crowd,the diversity of the people around you and so on an so forth( and not to forget my personal favorite-the pantry)
Oneinteresting place in our trains are the bathrooms,well i know most of you would be thinking that fascinating is hardly the adjective for our stink holes.But what im refering to is the messages people take extra pains to write on those timeless walls :).They range from "ende swantham kalyani !! i loooove you(ernakulam bangalore intercity,coach s1-in case kalyani is reading),to political messages like MR.M sucks in all ways :) ,to call girl(ponu)-9865432198 and the best i have ever read- "i know its difficult but take care not to spill it all over" .

Groan!
A beautiful sunny day. Trees moving across. Hey whats going on. Why the darkness. A slow veil seems to draw across over the sunlight. Sensory perceptions are closing. Did you just call out to me. Where am I. Milli seconds, seconds, minutes and more minutes. A ray of sunlight. Aah more of it. Oxygen. I can hear you and you just called me a madcap. Oh this is a bus. What was all that? I need some food. Water and Food. This is better. Why didnt you just tell me this is what you wanted before. Lay back and relax. Kicked! What was that! Who is holding me so tight. Let me breathe. Curled up inside it seems to rise and curl, like a python kills its prey. Intestines squirm. Kick here and there. Paining twisting turning. I groan and whimper. I beg you to leave. You have got what you wanted, you evil eye. You smile with satisfaction and and curl back. I know you are in there waiting to rise again. Bloody acidity and gas problems :( :P

women :)
you know women really fascinate or should i say intrigue me(dudes dont come to the conclusion that im hen pecked !! IM NOT !! let me explain :) )
The other day, i was watching a movie (malayalam) with a close friend of mine,it was on the relationship between a mother and her teenage kid,although the movie was avoidable,one point hit me quite hard.women are to be saluted and respected for a lot of attributes,ranging from being more emotionally stable,mature to being the best of managers and multi taskers.if you have ever observed your mom or atleast your girl friends,you can see that they would be talking to you as well as passing comments on what the couple or person next to you is doing :)
( girls !! just kidding :) v u too :) manichidu paa :) )
But on a serious note,i really do think that women make really great managers,you would agree with me if only you could take a look at your moms daily schedule(frankly i have never observed her before 8 am :)).My moms ( and i think most moms )day starts at 4 in the morning,with some weird yoga-art of living-meditation-kung fu ( kidding :) ) combination of exercises.she then manages to find time to pray to all heavenly and earthly gods ( this list is exhaustive ),cook breakfast and lunch for all of us and then leaves for her day at office.So far i have been here for 22 years and i have never gone hungry :)
The same applies to a lot of women in my life -v,my cousins,friends etc,their ability to manage emotions,work,personal life and family is just incredible.
But its not like eve is to be fully saluted,the other day i happened to be travelling in train.i had one of those really uncomfortable side upper berths.sitting diagonally across me on the main lower berth were this group of 50 60 aged women,completely lost in their world of hard core bitching and piping hot gossip( i hate it :) )
when the train stopped at a station,mind you it was damn crowded,a pregnant lady of around 30 years walked in and asked them for a seat to which this particular lady from the group replied saying that she had paid Rs.352 50 paise to reserve her berth and that she wouldn let go of it and to my amusement picked up her heavy luggage,and placed it on the seat :) man !!i have never seen this post my junior kg days :)!! (NO COMMENTS)truly nauseating !!
another unique feature about women is their multiple personality disorder,ability to be nice in front of the person and to gossip about the person the minute they leave.they can fight like dogs but make it up with a irritating crying session :)
But all said and done had eve not been there we would have no where to go to :) (pun unintended)

WoooHooo!
Enough of staring at the screen and now down to business! You know those times when you are searching for the right thing to say. Well, most often, if you think too much, you will end up saying nothing or you are too late or the other person is too bored to hear you now or you end up saying some irrelevant nonsense. ok ok ! I know you guessed I am thinking of the right thing to say!
Yeah. So, I just came back from a walk. And I met this kid in the lift. You know in a huge residential complex like mine you get to see thousands of kids and I interact with most of them in the lift. And trust me this is the best place to learn kids better(if you are not a mom or dad of one of course ). :D There are these kids who get in and stick to the wall and drop their face down and stare at you open mouthed. Yeah, I know mommy told you not to talk to strangers, kiddo.You try to smile , but, nope, openmouthed stare it will be. And then there are these kids who come in and look at you with genuine raw curiousity. Which says "how come you are so big man ! what are those things in front of your eyes on your nose man! You ought to be in the zoo man!". And you smile, they stick their tongue out and give a half way smile. Yeah, I know you never smiled at a zoo animal, kiddo. There are other kids who come and say "aunty !which floor"! Damn! There goes my day! I mean any grown up female who is not wearing a skirt or pinafore is an aunty! I dont smile at such kids!! (just kidding :) ). And then there are these kids who come and say "Akka, which floor?". Some even ask "which school, akka ?". Real sweet huh. :) You smile at them, they give you a big grin. And some,well, keep grinning.:) One more category are kids who come in and stick their nose to the entrance of the lift and jump off once their floor comes. Hey hey! I dont have a sack, I won't kidnap you! Well, the list goes on and on. I spend a few more years and concentrate, I can write a thesis on this! Yeah right!Enough of this, back to work!

And trust me this is the best place to learn kids better(if you are not a mom or dad of one of course ). :D There are these kids who get in and stick to the wall and drop their face down and stare at you open mouthed. Yeah, I know mommy told you not to talk to strangers, kiddo.You try to smile , but, nope, openmouthed stare it will be. And then there are these kids who come in and look at you with genuine raw curiousity. Which says "how come you are so big man ! what are those things in front of your eyes on your nose man! You ought to be in the zoo man!". And you smile, they stick their tongue out and give a half way smile. Yeah, I know you never smiled at a zoo animal, kiddo. There are other kids who come and say "aunty !which floor"! Damn! There goes my day! I mean any grown up female who is not wearing a skirt or pinafore is an aunty! I dont smile at such kids!! (just kidding :) ). And then there are these kids who come and say "Akka, which floor?". Some even ask "which school, akka ?". Real sweet huh. :) You smile at them, they give you a big grin. And some,well, keep grinning.:) One more category are kids who come in and stick their nose to the entrance of the lift and jump off once their floor comes. Hey hey! I dont have a sack, I won't kidnap you! Well, the list goes on and on. I spend a few more years and concentrate, I can write a thesis on this! Yeah right!Enough of this, back to work!
