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. ;)

Modern Parenting and how to gear up for challenges.

As a youngster you might have had an idea of parenting, like how you would want to raise your future child different from your mother's way of child rearing. But when you fail tremendously in the act and seek your mother's, grandmother's help, you have passed as a modern day parent facing innumerable difficulties bringing up your little munchkin. There is certainly no one particular way of parenting which could be deemed as the best.You must follow a realistic type which suits your own family and lifestyle. Old-fashioned parenting can never be shunned from your entire agenda, because at various situations it actually makes sense, not to mention common sense. Yet, insensible in some ways compared to the contemporary methods. There is no village There is an old saying, “It takes a village to raise a child”, meaning in olden days, it takes a whole community of different people who interact with children in order to raise and make sure your children grow in a ...
