It's time to put your eggs in one basket

For the first time since I joined, Kalari begins after Easter ! Usually the year starts on All Fool's Day. Just imagine.... So,  no Easter egg making this time. But at home Ginger is competing with herself. More omlettes this year. Sighs....

happy eggster 

Easter is always at home with family. No guests n ghosts since its working day for men. The working class. Hee heee.

Cheers to the new beginning !!

All the best to the young rascals @ Kalari !!!

Be balanced, Lady!

Hello world...

Hmm...

Today being the brand new day of the month, I'm inclined to take a few resolutions. No, I don't do this every month. I do on a daily basis but this is different. Here is the 'new me' list

• scribble here daily.
• cycle @ 5 pm
• hate food n related stuff
• polish off my mother's lemon pickle n never try any.
• water my body liberally.
• reduce mobile time.
• stop howling @ my kids
• speak less @ Kalari
• hit bed early with an empty belly

Ignore the list. Since I've not much time left, the aim is to make the most of it. I mean the expatriate life. Don't you get ideas. The fat lady has to wait many more decades to sing for me....

Kalari news. The Tamil chums say, " you look so refreshed after four days off!" Do I? Ha ! I do not bother to elaborate on the morning rush, combat with Mirchi, spraying YSL Opium directly to my eyes (today's morning calamity) and the usual marathon to get into the already waiting bus. Oh yes, I use YSL's Opium on a daily basis. Hee heee. I didn't even get time to wash opium off my eyes. (My eyes are still burning, will I go blind?) And yet I look fresh ! Wow. The new chick from Telungana hi fives my three year old dress. Mrs Gee greets her 'English Rose' happily. She calls me English Rose! Me! After all, all is not lost. Today seems to be doing good.

In other news. Winter almost retreats. My feet enjoy sunlight n air after four months of mummification. Sure, they look fair n sexy. I love winter for this reason only. But I almost feel naked n insecure without jacket. Anyways...welcome spring, if there is any in this desert !

Agonizing thought of the day: ''The meek will inherit the earth.'' No. Nah. The meek suffers n dies slowly.... the meek dies everyday.

Epic? You mean 'epic'? Yes, that's the new word of the kalari. Awesome. Hey, awesome is past.  I'm so relieved about 'awesome'. But epic? Perhaps we should do some dictionary digging.

Pepper going to Kalari !!

Pinky starts her schooling. She hasn't been to any play school . She gets up late in the morning. She is a fussy eater. She still needs diaper at night. She is a bit of a cleanliness maniac. She doesn't approve the school toilet. She doesn't like the school uniform. She is not at all excited !! She never showed any interest before also. I'm worried. I pray her class teacher be nice with her and me.

Ain't she lucky? She goes to school carrying her pink school bag, pink tiffin box , pink pencil box, along with her mother n siblings !

The foreign language English, for deserting me
