I can count the number of times we actually met in person, even number of hours spent together can be counted easily but number of hours spent talking over phone can’t be :-).

In past 4 yrs, I tried all cellular service providers.. “Airtel”, Hutch”, “Idea”, “Dolphin/Trump” and finally settled down with Reliance….helping Anil & Mukesh in realizing DhiruBhai’s dream.

It is nothing short of a miracle; it’s something straight out of fairytales. Yes, I’m talking about my marriage; we met in yahoo chat room in the year 2001 and now after a 4yrs of long distance relationship we are happily married (so far : -P)

This feeling is something unexplainable; harder I try to pen down this…faster my mind goes blank.

There is someone up there controlling everything.

Prescription for Procrastination

Throw your hat over the fence.

When you face a fence too difficult to climb, throw your hat over it. Then you’ll have to figure out how to get to the other side.

Every monday we look back at the good old days: Saturday and Sunday.

After her heroics at Melbourne and Hyderabad, she is flashed all across the media, somehow I do not find anything special about her....be on court or off court; off court she tries to imitate Preity Zinta's KHNH look and fails miserably.

hmm no more criticism after all she achieved something which no Indian women had achieved so far. All the very best girl.
