… and in pictures too :)

Have been busy helping organize, praying for & finally, ushering (!) at a 4 day Church Lenten Program which got over on Sunday past. Crowd ranged from 2000 about 3500 people each day, and trust me, ushering is no joke!

In between stuff, have also managed to attend the premier of 27 dresses. The movie got terrible reviews - one called it “Porn, for chicks” so I wasn’t expecting much. And perhaps that’s the reason why the picture was pretty alright imo. It was a chick flick, yes. It was predictable, yes. But then again most chick flicks are. And they’re still nice (if you’re a chick or on a date). Lascelle Symons was just near me - all alone - I’ve noticed usually his wife accompanies him to premiers. Perhaps the designer only came to check out the dresses?

I’ve also started a two year offline, correspondence Diploma course on the Bible through the St. Paul’s Bible Institute, Chennai. It’s a fairly comprehensive course that spans both Old & New Testament. Booklets are mailed each month & answers have to be written and mailed back. The only tough part is actually writing the answers. Ever since I started this course, I’ve realised I type much much faster than I write. In fact I rarely write at all - so it’s hard getting back into school/college frame of mind and write answer sheets. But I guess it’s good for me, both in terms of the learning & the writing!

Have also become addicted to going to the sea front with giggly friend who I spend most of time with these days. We take long walks by the beautiful sea. On most days we giggle like schoolgirls though some days we’re uncharacteristically quite and enjoy the serene sea. And of course our mandatory Sev Puri, which I’m also become addicted to. Yumm (just googling for pics right now is making me hungry!)

And yes, I have (finally) cut my hair :) Excuse the pic, not me looking my best, but it was taken by me (as is quite apparent!) ONLY FOR YOU GUYS and only to see the HAIR, so cut me some slack ok?! Arnold & Karl, thanks for the many inquiries after the lenght of my hair, trust it gets a thumbs up!

  1. Looking goooooood!!!

  2. The hair looks great. A transition from a Tom girl to cute-girlie type hair style.

  3. Tempting people with sev-puri? Not good, not good.

    By the way, I noticed we are ‘friends’ on Shelfari. I know you there of course, but do you know which one I am? (Hint - no face, only books).

  4. got your hair cut? with garden shears :-)

    jk, can we have some more pics please?

  7. Yummy nice eye candy…. can I replace the giggly friend this weekend for the long walks by the beautiful sea, really tempted by the Sev Puri.

    BTW the hair looks really good too.

  8. @ All: Thanks! Am enjoying washing my hair more often than I used to - one of the joys of having shorter hair :)

    on the Sev Puri :D

    @ Karl: Lemme know when you’re in Bbay next & you’re on!

  9. I guess am touching new grounds here by commenting but none the less…I will have to say ” Phenomenal material on ur post, am really surprised on the varied contents that u share with the world….casual yet very interesting stuff”
    BTW the hair looks splendid…it makes you look really mischievous ..well maybe thats the effect of the snap.is it???
    I guess am in queue for asking you out this weekend though, Karl beat me to it!!! :( Call me if he goofs up ;)

  10. @ Lesley: A first-timer’s official welcome to TVIMH, am glad you like :)

    Wrt the mischievousness, it’s not the hair or the pic that make me look like that, it’s me ;)

    Karl is far far far (far) away and won’t be seeing me anytime soon (that I know of!) but I don’t accept dates from strangers who comment on my blog online anyway, so it wouldn’t matter anyhoo!

    PS: The real queue has a lot more guys in it than just Karl (who is in it only for the Sev).

  11. for someone who so diligently takes her precious time out and treats the world with her spicy self I guess its a fight …a fight till the end with all the guys in queue.

    I am told to be quite resourceful but getting your no from thin air is going to be a task o u could be ever so kind and spare this overworked man the pain n for this one time n one time only allow hiw to call you;)

  12. @ Lesley: “one time n one time only” - in that case you’ve completed your quota, no? :)
  13. lol…get a room!

  14. The Lent period done - wow - now we’ll have melody active back again.
