Notes

Today while watching some Nokia advanced phone advertisement on TV,I realised what made us (atleast me,if not my sister) more adamant to learn the piano. My mom's gifts to us,these little light coloured translucent pencil boxes.They had little keyboards that ran on batteries.And also enclosed were small booklets that had pieces like 'London Bridge is Falling Down', 'Three Blind Mice' and a few other songs we already knew by then.And months later my sister started going to classes.And i started learning from her (teacher said i was too young to start so). The Laila Flechters, The Other books ci can remember names of,Susan Aunty,Sr. Edwin and the best of the lot,Indira Ma'am. And now years later, I cannot play anything on the piano(i do not have anything that artist in me,thats a fact!)! I am proud that my sister can.Thankfully there is someone to carry on my mom's artistic streak.

I'd be there.And no where else. I'd be there. In search of Utopia,i wish i wouldnt mind being Sabrina's chauffeur father.

...is a rhythm divine and Udhbhu Gundu ! He made my day!!!!!!!!!I love you re! So much! Bell rings, Leave my cribbing/sob/friends story/names chat with Aisi and go open the door (i was hoping it'll be him,because if you knew my house,you'd know that rarely do people ring the bell.....more on that later) And see no one at the door and see him come from the other side of the verandah .He says i didn't ring the bell, he did. And then enters and asks whether there is water to drink,my friend wanted water so he rang the bell.And then he started saying "Height Height Height" and a minute later, i am filling a glass with water and he asks me,How are you? I said,"I am fine.How are you?How is school?". He replies " Fine,In Bombay" I said, "I know.How is your Hindi?" (before he went to Bombay he knew only to talk Hindi but not read or write).He replies "Good. (while opening the door to get out) Now no English .Only Hindi." And t...
