The Lost Year

I have been inactive on my blog since june last year. Its the same time I joined a new organization and then a new project and my life has turned upside down. I have been so busy and so caught up in my work that I don't have time for myself or even my passions.

Things have not favored my completely but still I enjoyed my time working. I love being busy and soaked up in work. It helps me avoid boredom. I am that kind of person who always needs something. Idleness kills me more than anything. So my work did the trick.

I have worked in such an environment where priorities have changed with seconds. Requirements have always been unclear. And you learn news every second after go  live or on the day of release. The pressure gauge has been high and timelines thin. This was pretty much my last year, trying to fit in the thin time frames. Fortunately I managed to fit in somehow. Despite of my size though, which is not letting me fit in anything anymore.

I have also seen a phase where in I was so much in debt that I had to work 2 jobs to overcome that.

For most of the time I felt like I was running like in a race... Running and just kept on running. Not knowing the direction and the reason I was running for. I somehow lost myself somewhere in it.

But now I AM BACK!

Back to my normal life. Trying to make my life productive and follow my dreams and pursue my passion. Back to finding me and working hard for a better me...

XOXO
Self Love.

My Take On: Malaka Spice

Hey lovelies, I have a friend who is transferring to NCR this weekend. It all happened on such a short notice that we didn’t get enough time to plan for anything. She received the confirmation on Thursday, hence we planned an evening out on the very day. The irony of this farewell party is that the person departing was on fast.:P. Anyways, we decided a beautiful place but due to traffic and work the next day, we ended in the neighborhood. So here’s My Take on: Malaka Spice. The first impression, those flower laden rickshaws parked on both sides of the entrance. As I stepped in I liked their outdoor seating, those beautifully decorated walls with picture frames and then those paper lamps on the edge of the shed running all the way to the other end. Southeast Asian food is not something I like. I just can’t take red chilly or pungent and sharp flavors like those of kimchi. I am a die-hard fan of Chinese, probably that’s what I eat more often than my own food. But Thai o...

My Take on: Prem's

Howdy people!? I'm in a cheerful mood today... Think my Zumba class charged me.. :P (giggle) So today I'm going to share my experience with one of the famous restaurant in Pune --Prem's. Ever since I moved to Pune I have been longing for good Punjabi food. And I have been hearing a lot about this place: Prem's Restaurant: 28/2, Opp. Lane 3, North Main Road, Koregaon Park, Pune. I got to visit this place last weekend. It was a rainy evening and I went there for dinner with a couple of friends. As usual before going there I did little R&D about the place and the menu. I was ready with my order before reaching there. The place has outdoor seating. The tables are arranged under a shed alongside the bar. the tables are candle-lit. Dim lights, raining, slight cold and outdoor dinner. Amazing. The ambiance is good. And now comes the food. We ordered few starters both veg and non veg, and the main course. Our order was: Starters; Veg Spring rolls: Th...
