5 Things I love About you........

so...one way of being not so morose..is always nice to thinkof 5 nice things that happened to you today...its harder than it sounds....and waaaaaaaaaay more helpful than you think.....

let me start with my 5 things...

  1. early in the morning i got to watch DDLJ..a whole 2 hours of it...on big screen!...it was like this unexpected rain ( the indian rain...the one that comes after a parched earth cries out for relief.... the one that lets the earth perfume us all with its sweet smell, the one that forces me every single year to go out on my terrace and dance...really i do that..the first rainfall every monsoon -and not the american rain-dank,cold and boooring:(
  2. I had to finish some work in the library before i sneaked out....this work would have taken me 3-4 hours normally....i finished it in ONE.......i guess inspiration is all i need;).... but its always nice to prove to yoursef that you can be the very model of efficiency and organisation....i just choose not to be so most of the times;)
  3. I met a friend called Swati in the Media studies department,(shes the one who showed the movie to a bunch of undergrads both indian and firang-she teaches them about Bollywood movies...can i call this my official dream job?????),......anyways so Swati is making a documentary about sensuality and Indian women - their perception through Hindi movies(i think this abt sums it up i should suggest it as a future title)....and she wants Mal and I in the movie!!!!!.....she will interview us...and we re gonna be on film!....im all excited now:)
  4. I got to visit the Albright Knox gallery.......thats always fun...and for Free too;)
  5. Mittra's making lamb for dinner....havent had that since i left India.....yay!!!!!

tandoori chicken??....the "K" connection?...will the real commenter please stand up?:)....i have had a slightly murky past with names like "tanya" and "nikki" strewn across(I in my naivity considered Pritam and I the "queen of prankcalling"in a long forgotten age;) but I have NEVER been called the "masala mama"!!!!
Beatrice....somedays are harder than others to count good things.....but if you lower the bar of what makes you happy (come on...2 hours of DDLJ?....some would argue that as having NO bar;) it gets easier:)
