Sis turning 30

well is she 30 already.. i still remember her as the small gal with two plaits going to school.. v used to fight a lot when v were kids.. but no more..

her blogs make me feel "oh!! my !! is this my little sister" she has grown so big.. has a daughter of her own.. have to pinch myself to believe it..

she thinks very different and makes me always "wow".. also the thot definitely crosses me "do i know her fully?".. we luv each other.. v have different opinion about many things.. from her maturity sometimes i feel i havent grown up at all.. she has lot of my mom's straight forwardness annd clarity of thot..

she was the one who made me blog.. thanks to her..

Small world or big world

This blog was initiated by my sis.. she had written about many people who just got down from her life journey.. yes there are few who travel with u and few who opt to get down.. internet has made the world small but people's heart are still the same.. they decide to move on and learn to forget the old pals.. it is their choice.. orkut, linkedin tries to bring people together but people themselves try to unlink. v r no longer their high priority.. it was tough the first time it happened.. but nowadays i just dont crib about it.. but those friends of mine do cross my mind every once in a while.. y??? this question hasnt got the answer yet.. that is what life is all about..

Paper kappal

Yesterday my three year old wanted me to make a paper boat.. well i made it and gave it to him.. he wanted to float it in the bath tub.. i just travelled down memory lane for few minutes when i was a little kid i used to luv rainy days.. no school.. just water and play.. ofcourse on a raindy day is when i learnt to play the cards.. so all of us (mom, dad, sis and i) will sit and play cards... what fantastic days.. well as soon as the rain stops for a while i will make paper boats and float it in the water.. what more!! make cargo boats by loading small stones in the boats.. so much fun.. never bothered about any dirt on my dress.. well even now i try to play with my son.. i jump in the water puddle along with him (my husband ofcourse scolds me) but that is fun all about.. whenever i think of rainy day i do remember this incident about my school days.. v were asked to write a story about rainy day.. i wrote about may paper boat bcos that is what i do on rainy days.. when i told my friends in class about it they just giggled and ridiculed me.. well i was praised by my teacher at the end... so be it yday or today or tomorrow i luv to live with so much fun.. i will be a good company to my son..

First and best roller coaster ride.

Y not write something light today? Our trip to florida was a totally unplanned and surprise for all of us.. We just packedourselves and were there in a couple of days.. That whole week was a total enjoyment.. We were on the theme parks everydaytaking as much sun possible on our heads.. But still v kept going.. The best part was when my son enjoyed the rides.. Hewas tall enuf to go on some rides for the kids.. The Shamu express roller coaster ride came as a surprise for me.. I thinki still dont know him.. For all I know he gets scared of sounds and darkness. So i always didnt know how he will reactto roller coasters.. I was having my fingers crossed and the roller coaster takes off and there i see my son sitting quietnot making any happy noises either.. I was expecting him to cry anytime.. But he didnt and when the roller coaster came toa halt.. I looked at his face and cudnt figure out whether he enjoyed it or not.. He took me by surprise by saying "'Mommy one more time".. "Wow!!".. We went one more round and he was all happy.. Now I have a company in my son to enjoy all thoserides.. Later we went on other rides but this was the first and the best. I will cherish it my lifetime.

Is terrorism the solution?

The death of prabakaran the LTTE chief makes me think.. What really these terrorists achieve by being so violent? Atthe end they seem to die a horrible death. Always live under fear of attack. See your own kids die in front of you.. Have they slept a day with just peace on their mind. Suicide bombers where small kids were trained for this purpse.. Nastyway to achieve something. I still do beleive that LTTE was initated with good intentions. But the path they chose was not the correct one.There can be protests against the partiality shown by the government but it reached the peak and there was no trustworthynegotiations which can be had. At one point hunger for power eats away the good intention.. Will it satisfy them if theyreach power. Never. they would still aim for something different and keep fighting the war. Their intention is to fightand not achieve. What good can it do to the people who follow and beleive? I dream and pray for a world without terrorism where only happiness thrives.

Air travels are they safe anymore?

This news definitely disturbed my mind for a while. I was thinking for sometime about Bermuda triangle. Later when I readabout Bermuda triangle some researches prove that this just like any other place in the ocean. The plane went missing witharound 220 passengers.. saddening. offlate we have been hearing many plane crashes when we thot plane travel is safe.. The aircraft was in good condition on take off. The voice recorders and the so called black box are still missing though therescue crew managed to find some parts and some human bodies. Based on these, the research indicate that the plane indeedwas flying through turbulence and had lot of some issues with a sensor called pitot tubes which provide info aboutthe air pressure and thus help in measuring the airspeed of an aircraft. The airbus company did indicate issues with the pitot tubes and had urged air france to replace but for some reason this was ignored. This has cost the life ofnearly 220 people. Is it economy that is the reason for this negligence? This makes me think... How safe is to travelin the air plane any more? What do we trust?
