Inconsiderate Humans

I went to temple today and as usual after the pooja finishes, food will be served. And as usual the queue was very long. I was queueing for my turn (I love temple food and would not wanna miss it! and the sambar saadham from this temple is so awesome!!!)  and then suddenly a mid-aged woman was just standing beside me reading a book (with sanskrit words). She was just quietly reading and slowly she cut the queue, standing in front of me. Without a word or permission, she just cut the line. Just like that! I don't not mind letting you in front of me woman but seriously have some courtesy to just say a word. If it wasn't for me being very hungry and i wanted to grab the nasi lemak (It finishes fast) i would have sounded her! Would have given her a piece of my mind. Something inside me told me not to start a drama there. LOL! Knowing me, i would have created a drama. It is not that I won't give her a place in front of me. The issue here is have the courtesy to say "excuse...

It is that time of the year again

I always look forward for Diwali and christmas. Always! When i was a kid i made sure that i put up a christmas tree every year without fail until it broke and apparently that year i was very naughty so my parents decided to not get me a new christmas tree :-/ but anyhow, I always loved christmas. Deepavali is two weeks away. YAY! What comes to your mind when you hear Diwali? For me it is spending time with loved ones. And also shopping and FOOD!!! There will be so many Diwali bazaars all around and I will go cuckoo. Currently, i don't know why but I am addicted to anarkilis. Everywhere i go, the first thing I will look for is anarkilis.  When i was a kid, i will go crazy for fire crackers as well and i will force my dad to get all the crackers. I still do play with fire crackers btw but not as crazy as before. LOL ....I am more addicted to shopping now :-P If you give the choice, I will go to every bazaar and get all the anarkilis there. HA HA HA. But no I have a budget to fol...

Sri Lanka 2014

I never thought I will be saying this now but yes! I really miss Sri Lanka and I really want to go back there. I came back a week ago. Was on a tour for 10 days. The food was just simply amazing! I went to Colombo-Anuradhapura-Jaffna-Kandy-NuwaraEliya-Katargarama-Beruwala-Colombo. The hotels were also so amazing! I stayed in Earl Regent Hotel in Kandy and i fell in love with the hotel and the food. The buffet was just mindblowing! Lucky we decided to have buffet dinner that night :-) Another place which i loved was Nuwara Eliya! It is also called as little England. It was so cold that we need to switch on the heater. I also went to several historical temples in which is stated in the Epic Ramayana. I saw the place where Seeta was forced to jump into the fire, I also saw the stream in which it is believed that Seeta bathed there. In Jaffna, due to the war that happened for 20 years, so many house were bombed and left abandon. It is so sad to see all this. My native is Jaffna and I ...

Confessions Of A Dieter

Do you remember the first time you decided to go on diet? How did it go? and what made you to be on diet? And how well did you do throughout the process? I still remember how difficult it was for me.  I am not a person who loves to eat vegetables. So, going on a diet was pretty hard for me. I somehow managed to pull it off, with a lot of encouragements and a strong will power. I started with reducing rice. Instead, i starting taking brown rice. First time, i struggled as i was too used to eating white rice and not brown rice but after a couple of days i got into it. Now, if you ask me white or brown I will say brown! :) If you're on my Facebook you can see the results.  It was and is (Still on the diet. One cannot stop completely from a diet) never easy. Seeing your friends eating yummy foods and there you are, eating a plate full of salads. But trust me, at the end, the result will be awesome.  All your hard work will pay off!  The joy you get when you can ...
