Confessions of a shopaholic - The movie was a whole lot of fun just like the trailers promised and yes the theatre was brimming with like, 90% girl population... i guess we can just smell a good chick flick in the air!
Gossip Girl - Yes, it sounds superficial, good thing is it doesn't claim to be anything else. The script's well written, witty, smart, bitchy... Music's darn good too and how can i forget the people look gorgeous!
Half the reason i watch is the clothes, styling & accessories, worth killing for! Oh Yeah... has to be seen to be believed!
Reading: Ascent of money
Niall Ferguson writes financial history in a such a simplified manner that rookies like me can understand how it all works. Banks, debt and stock market don't seem so daunting anymore. The book has turned into a popular Television Series, the music's catchy and the narration intriguing that no wonder its such a hit, but don't be fooled, its practically been read right out of the book.

The organizing committee comprising of Priyanka (CCD), Yatin, Madhav, Priyanka (HP), Gayatri, Gautam, Punit, Meenakshi, Anil, Prady and Brinda had organized some wonderful games. The event soon gained in momentum as the games begun.
First among them was Fevicol ka Majboot Jod, for which groups of 15 were formed, a circle was made wherein each member locked hands with the rest and alternate members faced into and out of the circle. Once the hands were locked-in and positions fixed, the race was on!
There were five such teams and two raced at a time. Two got disqualified when hands lost their grip sometime during the pursuit of speed.
The finale between an all-girls team & all-boys team was a treat to watch, while the rest of us picked sides, placed bets and cheered on!
The complexity level was raised a bit this time, what with them racing diagonally this time. In the end though, it was a close call as the boys crossed the finish line just a few seconds before the girls.
Next was Hum Saath Saath Hain, wherein all the GCD teams were to move clockwise in a circle till the music played, but when it stopped and the host, Madhav, announced a number, groups of that particular number were to be formed. Anyone found in a group of lesser or greater number was disqualified. Most of the people stuck loyally to the initial group they had formed, others switched when the tide changed. It was fun as scheming and strategy occupied everyone’s minds and staying in the game became a priority. One could tell how much people were enjoying this game, by the looks of distress on their faces when disqualified.
Kunal, Sivakumar, Kiran, Sameer and Mahesh were the five who sustained till the end.
There were prizes for rare achievements like having the Maximum number of keys in a key ring; Winner – Sivakumar K, Possessor of red rimmed spectacles; Winner – Rithesh Shetty, Maximum number of buttons on an outfit – 80(!); Winner – Pravina Raorane.
The cake was then cut by some of our most experienced Lionites, after which cake & appetizers were gobbled up.
By then it was time to hit the dance floor and most took to it with ease. In true party spirit, everyone grooved to the beats as the DJ belted out popular numbers one after the other.
It was good fun to see everybody's other side as they danced, tried to dance, stepped on toes and into a trance.
Time seemed to fly by, as once dinner was had; it was soon time to pack up and ship off, bringing to an end a truly memorable evening.

Gifts involved dvd's of B grade flicks(!!!), calendars, comic books, cd cases, chocolates(lots of that), dinner sets, candles, showpieces, etc. There was a lot of stealing happening as the natural human tendencies took form. Everyone seemed to want what others had, thus rarely ending up with what you originally desired.
It is not as mystical as it sounds, but once you see it... Of course, you can never go back to believing that all that you see is all there is. Your perception of Reality as it is gets modified.
See colors around you & people transforms you, because you start wondering what else might be, that i do not see? Could Guardian angels, fairies & mermaids be real? ... as real as us at least, maybe just living in another reality...
I researched a bit on how to observe aura colors and guess what, the following day when I was sitting idle at home, I tried the exercise I had read about and saw the color of my aura!
It was crystal in color!
It’s a very intriguing experience and makes you realize that the universe has a whole different side to it, one that can’t be directly seen and that ‘life’ as we call it, might actually be a transitory illusion.…
