A slumber did my spirit seal....

It's been a while... I don't know where to start. School reopened last week and I get reports every alternate day from the sisters (either they call up or I do), I miss that place so damn much. Seems there are many new admissions this year, about 20 of them!!!! Can't wait to go back and see them all... a boy (this new kid from bombay, 12 year old Down's syndrome) already broke a pipe and enjoyed the water shower. Yeah, life was fun there...

Life now is not bad either, there are so many weddings coming up. I want to attend all of them, though I know one won't be possible. It's fun listenin to the wedding talk and all the other stuff that preceeds a wedding. Other people's weddings are so much fun compared to your own.

I've been wanting to meet anju for a very long time, being in the same city and all that. But things haven't been working out (thanks to a couple of very lazy guys, who say 'yes' to everythin then go disrupting all my plans the next day). She's on a pilgrimage tour now (though I know she will check out the cute looking jews more than the historical sites) to Israel... she's visiting the birth place of Jesus and the place where he converted water to wine, the river jordan... etc. I hope she comes back safe and sound in one piece, if she gets kidnapped... I will really miss not being able to read her blog.

Sajeeve is on cloud number raina... sorry nine. Its nice to hear him talking about this new phase in life and talking about sunoj (one's inevitable the other is extremely cute). Shil, haven't spoken to her in a long time now. Nameeta calls me every hour or so... poor thing wants to come here and enjoy the heat, wonder why nobody is allowing her. I get information about my cousins in bombay, from Singapore... how neat is that!

P.S: The title here is a line from Wordsworth's 'Lucy' Poems..... it would be nice to meet these (Shakespeare, Keats, D.H.Lawrence... and the rest) guys some day.

Charmaine... that bit about "the information I receive from Singapore about you guys" is all about you megh's... uncode the hidden meaning.

and nam, you should be thankin me... I am doing you a favour by not allowing you to come here, it's like I am bearing all the heat and not letting you be affected by it. some people never figure out things.
And saj, we should do somethin about the network, how come it takes longer to reach the same country? and what's wrong with Shakespeare... I would like it all the cousins got together and had dinner with him or somethin, that would be so funny.... imagine ryan trying to decipher what he says, and you making shakespeare gasp in pain when he hears the profane language you seem to be good at. Megh's would probably drive him crazy with her nonsense jokes. I think among all of us, Shakespeare would like Jude the best, jude speaks like him sometimes.

Miss reading my blog, it seems. You're a mean old cow. :p I'm back safe and sound - unfortunately no one kidnapped me. Then again, I only want to be kidnapped by Jews and they won't do that!

Nice Ad....

Wouldn't you say so... Nam and me were in this huge clothing store and we were making fun of all the models on display (there was one of hrithik in which he looked kinda gayish) when we came across this one. Seriously, dark people are more better looking....

Tawusi Melek: The Peacock Angel

The Last Girl (2017) by a Yezidi survivor, Nadia Murad, is filled with the bone-chilling sort of evil that the ISIS is synonymous with. Nadia poignantly captures the plight of her Yazidi village, Kocho, as the threat of ISIS looms large in the distance before becoming a reality. As with the Holocaust, no one really anticipates the amount or intensity of evil that could reside in the indoctrinated hearts of men. Otherwise, nobody would willingly stay back in their towns or villages waiting for the genocide of their race. One of Nadia’s brother’s, Hezni, did try to go Germany, by crossing the northern Iraqi border on foot into Turkey, from where they (the brother and a few others) made their way to Istanbul, then paid a smuggler to take them into Greece. But they were discovered and had to spend a horrible time in prison. So, the fact is people did try to leave, but like Nadia explains, it isn’t easy to leave the only place one has ever known. I still think that being forced to

A tribute to the crazy bunch....

Here are a few picutres that won't find a place in the wedding album... but they were equally (some of them, even more) memorable. Everybody loves sunoj.... I was so happy to see them all...... (first time they were coming to my new place) Sunoj again.... hanging out with this guy is like shopping, ice cream, chocolates... etc. You can't get enough of them. The crazy cousins gave us a very interesting gift... this gift will be with us for six months then it will start its cycle of educating the owners. Though I doubt my cousins need much education in that department. It was fun opening the book and Jardin being the smart guy wanted somethin read from page 69. It was so cute the way Sunoj quickly picked up "The Magic Faraway Tree Series" from the corner and gave me to hold up when Robert uncle walked into the room (turns out he was the one who bought the book). I still remember Robert uncle laughing his head off.... good times. This wa
