Scary Story




I used to pride myself for being a brave and bold iron lady but that is an outright lie. I have my fears, I fear ghosts! Technically, I know that demons belong to fantasy and there is no way that they are going to come down to our world and haunt us. But that knowledge doesn’t help when the light and sound effects combined with circumstances are just so apt to create an eerie feeling, even more when I am all alone. Alright, this is where you can have your two minutes break to laugh out loud at me for being so stupid and silly in this 21st century era. When your stomach starts hurting, you can come back to reading the rest and get scared yourself.

New Year Nostalgia




Pardon me one more time for getting nostalgic with childhood memories. I realize that I am very much grown up now and lapsing into repeated nostalgia might annoy my matured readers. But given the circumstances, I got so carried away that I couldn’t keep my lips locked. The last week of December to the first week of January is a holiday season to get carried away too. For someone with nativity from along the Coromandel Coast, for someone who has been under the courtesy of North-East monsoon, this short season would be the best of the year. The cakes and carols of Christmas, the cards and cheers of New Year, the festivity lent by the cool weather just make those half-yearly holidays more perfect than the long summer vacation in May. A perfect feeling that cannot be reminisced without nostalgia!
