nikhil


so i thought instead of finding a topic of my own, why not ask one of my first and oldest readers for topic ideas. this was the precise conversation:

sumitra: hey
tell me a topic that u have wanted to read about for a long time.
but never found anything interesting
pickle: something written abt me
sumitra: haha good one
pickle: seriously bole to bhi problem
sumitra: ok ok fine
lemme c what i can do
pickle: hmmm


ok.. now u must be wonderin about pickle. he used to call me pumitra (goodness knows why!) and hence i used to call him pickle (lame stuff) and the name is still stuck like that on my gtalk coz im too lazy to change it.. ok ok..this post is going to be about nikhil.. not me, so no rambling.

1.When i first met Nikhil, I was insanely jealous of him.

why you ask? Well, if a guy can down 2 pizzas a day with 2-3 cokes and then some burgers, and then some maggi noodles, and then say, 'bas hain, mujhe ghar jaake khaana hain,' and still manage to remain super thin..... well now u know why.

2. When I had a crush on Murali, Nikhil asked me to ask him to go shoe-shopping with me.

again, why you ask? no idea. some guy stuff. i thought it was a dumb idea at the time, but i took a chance and did it. (this was before i knew how murali felt about me, we were just friends). and it worked! no, we did not end up going shoe-shopping together, coz murali was sleeping and din't answer his phone.. but then he called me back later that night.. and we talked and talked.. and one thing led to another.. hehe :D

p.s. over the past years, i have seen nikhil counsel several ppl under relationship-distress.

3. nikhil is my movie-buddy.

we've gone to several movies together, so.

4. nikhil is easy to be with, a fun guy, everybody knows that about him. he's crazy about his gf.. well everybody knows that about him too.

5. he's a good friend, one you would like to have around on a rainy day. a person who enjoys his life a lot and makes sure you will too if you're around him!


there. i've been wanting to write him an Orkut testimonial since long, so now i guess i can just do some copy-pasting! :D





note: if any of my readers would like to read about any topic in particluar, please feel free to make a request. drop me a comment and i'll try to make something out of it!

sumitra on Google


just for time pass I googled 'sumitra'. Not that I expected to find myself anywhere, coz I don't really have much of an online presence. Here's some interesting stuff I found:

  • sumitra in Hindu Mythology. (Point to note: 'wisest'. he he.)
  • sumitra in travel! this is one is really awesome, an indian travel group exclusively for women.
  • sumitra in cooking.. mmm.. some mouth-watering indian dishes here.
  • another singer sumitra, an upcoming, fiesty one looks like!
An observation I can make is that most of these Sumitras seem to be artsy kind of ppl, more into creative stuff, kind of like me too a bit. does it come from the name? or is it just a coincidence? I wonder.. hmm..


P.S. this is one of the weirdest one's I found.. "baby birth prediction counsellor" what in the world is that?!!

a work in progress...


hey.. so im back after a long hiatus.

is anyone wondering where i've been? tsking away that i've once again become lazy to blog? well.. tsk no more, coz i have actually been working on my blog as is evident.

it still needs a bit of tweaking here and there, however its mostly done. and ready to be unveiled to the world outside! ahem.. sounds a bit pompous i agree.

so.. whats different about my blog now, you ask? (in case you aren't able to make out).. here are the main changes:

1. i now have my own domain!! yipee something i wanted to do since forever. my blog is still hosted out of blogspot, so no worries, my 5 followers can still follow me wherever i go and whatever i write. :D

2. after considerable deliberation and hours of searching, i finally found a look for my blog i can get along with. hope you all like it.

3. hopefully in the future i'll try making the blog more fun and more readable. stay tuned!

please do comment and let me know how u like it!!!
