Girl's adornment

The yellow metal, Gold is every girl's delight[Atleast Indian]. But that time is gone. Girls prefer the other versions of jewellery. I never had a great liking for gold ornaments. Still gold doesn't have even 1/10th of the attraction I hold for books or gadgets[not including Platinum :P]. My mom used to tease me that my dad wouldn't have to spend much to buy me wedding jewellery, they can make it inexpensive. But hold on, Mom I've started liking golden ornaments. :P

The other day we went to Jeweller's and bought me a casual necklace. Our budget was small but what I chose was a bit overboard. So I gave up considering the alarming prices of jewels. My mom was surprised and satisfied that I was no longer reluctant to chose jewels. Maybe this is a sign of my coming of age.

Often men used to taunt females doting upon jewellery...
"Diamonds are a girl's best friend and a man's worst enemy."
 But men don't seem to realize that it's a girl thing. Spending money may be a major issue. But...
My policy is not to find reasons to spend on what I love.[not necessarily gold]

    * source of comment from my economics friend ( gal ) *

    Two reasons of y women have zeal to jewels ie gold !!

    1 ) it adds an extra value of their beauty ( beauty, that something I can't get what is the measure from my birth )

    2 ) an excellent source of solid capital which is almost like moving compound interest capital :)

    Thanks poorvi for the info.. And I shared it here :)

    * no offense on either side *

Simple, yet poignant lyrics (II)

I've got a knack of discovering pleasant songs, excellent movies, endearing books very late in time, sometimes even after it's fad fades away. One such song is Perunthil nee enaku... The beauty of this song is that it relates to some very simple, unnoticed but pleasing moments in a our day to day life. The duet is of two people who sing about  what they mean to each other. There are some cute imperfections in Madhushri's tamil pronunciation but the male singer makes up for all that. Duh! Why do I even have to annotate the lyrics? It speaks for itself. ;) Perunthil nee enaku jannal oram Pin vasal mutrathil ne tulasi madam Vidumurai natkalil pallikoodam Vilayattu pillaigalin chella kobam Aalilla nalliravil ketkum padal Anbe anbe neeye (hmmm....)

Quote Wonderment (I)

I'm totally sick of examinations and stuff. World's worst stressors are exams. I've always had this opinion right from my childhood. Hmmm... So to get a break I was running through my old memories and thoughts. One such is the admiration for this quote, "Sometimes people are beautiful. Not in looks. Not in what they say. Just in what they are." --Markus Zusak The quote itself is amazing. Reminds me of so many things. And note that Markus Zusak's wonderful book called 'The Book Thief' which was a good read. Laziness blocks me from writing more. ;)

2 States - Oh please, no!

I don't know why I chose to read '2 States' over 'The Subtle Knife'. My copy of 'Subtle Knife' is sleeping in the shelf. I wish I had finished it off instead of reading this one. M' Okay let me tell why this book was so insipid, [beware of spoilers hehe!] Possible reasons why I picked up this book: 1. Thought it would be a light-read. 2. It involved IIM A 3. Curiosity to know the speciality of Tamil girls 4. Heard it is a slapstick comedy [ which is not, in any way] Top reasons why I disliked it: 1. Cliched plot with stale scenes. [Ithellam nanga 'Poovellam Kettupar' la ye pathutomm, Chetan!!] 2. Making fun of South-Indians went overboard. [where Punjabis were never hurt in any dialogues, a very feeble mocking was clear] 3. Nothing less than a Bollywood drama, too filmy! 4. Totally predictable. 5. Ananya herself [there're are a multitude of reasons to hate her, which I won't enumerate here] 6. The feeling of reading his p
