Summer vacations have been a snooze fest for me. I always rattle on and make a list of things I want to try a hand on but that enthusiasm never lingers because of authentic reasons obviously (laziness and who’ll-go-shopping-for-the-things-in-this-freaking-heat). But this time, oh my my *smirks* I actually did something!! I blame my clumsiness for this… last year I broke quite a few things which dint break adequately so I couldn’t wholeheartedly fling them away considering where I bought it from and how much I shelled out. I preserve things till its impossible for me to collect it from the ground. So finally, Tadaaaa… Welcome to my hobby lobby! S ince I’ve got that thing with readymade table mats..

Best Visual Art - Graffiti

"Graffiti is revolutionary, in my opinion, and any revolution might be considered a crime. People who are oppressed or suppressed need an o utlet, so they write on walls—it’s free." – Terrance Lindall, executive director of the Williamsburg Art and Historic Center “I refer to them as vandals, because that is what they are.

Mumbai locals (any day better than blue/yellow/red/orange reliance posters!) College compound walls I am writing about graffiti 'coz i was browsing through a few articles and I came across extremely negative opinions about the ...

Arranged the table with all the stuff…...

Eve of My dads 60th birthday....

Planning for my dad’s birthday has always been fun. Why, cause’ he already knows that theres a surprise. So now there’s no surprise but a curiosity.. What this time!? :D .. Well this time as well the surprise is a big time flop coz there’s this hustle and bustle in the house and my dad gets to know it all the time!!.. And now being the 60 th birthday… it’s like a regular thing… happens every damn birthday… Beginning of jan the house is crazy!! Also, my dear mom is very close to being worst when it comes to keeping secrets. If I tell her all that we(my bro n i) are planning… the surprise gone already ..and the itsy bitsy curiosity that exists is murdered! =)) So, here’s the plan: *evil grin* I bought a cake(Swiss cake) and a bunch of flowers(purple orchids and white something..
