Crazy-bitch days.

Now, I'm going to blog about a topic very close to my heart. I'm sure ALL you girls have experienced it atleast once(or everyday!). I like to call it the "crazy-bitch days". These are days when you feel insane, angry, sad, mean,sadistic blah blah blah for no particular reason! It's hard to understand why this happens( hormones, maybe?) but i think the most common reason is feeling "unloved". I can't explain it. It's not logical. it's just a feeling! It makes a perfectly happy ,sane person act crazy(and not in a good way!)

According to my theory, there are two types of bitch days-

1.Mean and angry days.

2.Sad and overwhelmed days.

I drew a little cartoon to demonstrate!   

The picture below shows a happy, sane person who is content with the world! It's one of those rare days.         

On other days!

Now,the metamorphosis :P

 This is the first type of "crazy-bitch" days.It transforms a normal person to a cranky,mean person who snaps at everybody! She is bitter and hates the world.She might even be contemplating REVENGE! Oh no,you'd better not mess with her or you'll have things flying your way and landing right on your face,nice and good. Or you might just get one TIGHT slap,who knows?! This one sure is a bundle of surprises.

The second type- Sad and overwhelming days! These are days when she's all sad and alone( for no reason) and overwhelmed with the world. She thinks everybody is out there to get her and she wallows in self pity.Tch- Tch.She might just cry a bucketful of tears or have a sudden emotional outburst even if you say "what's up?" so watch out!

















From my observation, crazy-bitch days happen when you aren't pampered enough. I am strongly opinionated when it comes to such things and i think that all girls should be taken care of and pampered like princesses,if you will! And by that, i don't mean spoiling them silly and praising them without reason and letting them boss around and treat people like shit.Just good old love will do the trick! And if nobody pampers you, pamper yourself!! EVERY SINGLE DAY! How, you ask? Ah, I'll put that up later!You can do it on a shoestring budget too (ok, it's not exactly shoestring but it's still quite thrifty! :P) Ta ta.Catch you later! <3

Coincidence?Really?

Hmm I'm kinda stuck today..words just aren't flowing like they usually do. Maybe cos there's nothing exciting happening :P Anyway, I can't let that stop me from writing! So, over the past few days i have been looking at different studies that i am interested in- Marketing, Reiki and other healing techniques,journalism,caricature, advertising. I know i'm completely off -course and that my GRE scores and my electronics background won't be useful for any of these courses to say the least, but hey! I'm still young! I'm allowed to make mistakes and change my mind anytime i feel like!! I'm still evolving so I don't have completely concrete ideas yet.You can say it's in a semi-molten form right now :P
And yeah just to let you know, I haven't got my joining date yet :| They have put it off by almost an year, from july this year to April next year :x I was fretting and fuming about it but i suddenly i realised that this could mean more time to experiment with different professions!I know my elders would be totally against it and think I'm stupid( They have been asking me to apply to other software/hardware companies) but I'm gonna do what i want and not listen to anybody blindly. Their intentions are good, but that's just not how I picture myself. I just CANNOT sit in a cubicle forever and code away like an automaton. No,sir!
So of all the courses, advertising sounds appealing right now.It involves writing and coming up with arty, creative campaigns. I think I'd really enjoy that! I just can't see myself as a software engineer and similar.No offense to anyone but it's just too....plain. Yup, that's the word!
A few days ago, i was browsing through the top advertising firms in India and most of them seemed pretty much the same, with boring names and boring websites, except one. OGILVY and MATHER.The only reason i clicked on it was because I liked the name ( Yes, I'm shallow at times) and i loved the website! It was different from the rest and that is what caught my attention. I felt like this could be it  and called their office to ask about internships. Sadly, the HR was on leave and i was asked to call back after a few days.hmph! So much for all my day dreaming! I was supposed to call them yesterday but i completely forgot! I had to go shopping with Remmiye, you see! And everything else takes a backseat when you're thinking about all the shoes and clothes and bags you can buy! *slurp*  But before that, i met the twinnies( ha, they HATE me calling them that! :P ) , Sid, Dharni and Arvind for lunch. Sid happened to bring up my blog and Dharni said he interned somewhere and that he had to manage their blogs and stuff.I asked him where he interned and surprise, SURPRISE!! He interned at OGILVY!!! I was sooo excited!! I would have never known of it if i hadn't done that little research a few days ago! This got me thinking if it was just a mere coincidence or if it was some kinda invisible plan that falls in place when you are ready for it.Like i said before, I believe in magic and the unknown so I say this wasn't just a coincidence! Come to think of it, I wouldn't have gone out to lunch if Remmiye had come early from college.I only went cos she said she would be late for shopping.It's almost like she delayed just so i could and talk to Dharni!!And there was absolutely no reason for Sid to mention my blog but he did and that set the ball rolling for the rest of the conversation! Ah, whatever it is, i hope me and Prarth get internships at Ogilvy as well!! Dharni said he'll talk to someone he knows there.Yayyy!! :)

Miriyum!

Okay, today I'm going to post a very yummy recipe! My dad is an expert at it and he learnt it from his mum apparently( who is an EXCELLENT cook!) .What makes it awesome is that it only takes 5 mins to make!! It's the perfect dish for people who can't be bothered with elaborate cooking..here goes!
What it is : Miriyum is a spicy side dish for idlis and dosas.Tastes best when it is fresh off the stove!

What you need  :
1.Chilli powder - 2 to 3 table spoons.
2.salt, to taste.
3.Curry leaves- As many as you like! But we usually use around 5 to 10.
4. Garlic- around 3 to 4 pods
5. water
6. oil- 2 to 3 tablespoons
okay, now let's start!

Step 1: Pour some oil in your frying pan. Heat it for about 3 mins.
Step 2: Put the chilli powder into the oil. You can put in more than 2 or 3 tablespoons if you have the guts :P.DO NOT stir. Leave it as it is.
Step 3:Add curry leaves and crushed garlic pods. You don't have to peel the garlic. Just crush the pods and throw them in!
Step 4:Add some salt and stir the whole thing!
Now, the curry leaves and the garlic will turn brown if they are fried in oil. To prevent this, add some water  and continue stirring.

oil+chilli powder+garlic and curry leaves+salt+ water.

After a few minutes, you'll notice oil kind of oozing out of the mixture in some places..

As you can see,oil is kind of floating on the mixture,as opposed to the previous pic which has more water.

  The oil oozing out means that you need to switch off the stove. The miriyum is done! :)

*slurp*
