Desperate to be a Blogger!!

29-Apr-2010
Last week, I was talking over the phone with a very good friend of mine. Hez kinda kool dude, who is least interested in reading books n all. All that matters to him was dressing up to 'impress' any gal...listening to kool English n Spanish Songs, which he himself fails to understand. While talking , i just encouraged him pick some books, instead, he said that blogging has a better impact, as he can directly write without getting influenced by whats written in book. I read a few of his travel bolgs..n was actually impressed.
The next week, therez this other friend of mine in Banaglore, Abhinandan, who again came with a blog. I looked back and realized that i was still stuck to the ancient way of writing in diary..and that's a kinda 'personal diary' which noone can peep into. Eventually my skills go unnoticed..well, this is what i thought ;)
Now..there was an ego clash, me being a decent (though not so good), am locked up in Diaries.. This thought made me more desperate to get into this Blog world...

I got into this world of words last week..with a Blog about my Husband n his craze for fish..this blog is going to be more in general..dealing with thoughts on everyday basis...

Oh..my intro..I'm Srilekh from Delhi...I wonder if more info is needed

Welcoming myself to the world of BLOGS!!!

Strategic marketing - Lessons from a Bhelpuri wala

Most of the time while getting back home I join a friend of mine who drops me at a metro station. In my second or third visit itself I noticed a bhelpuri wala. This man is not like other local market tapri wala. He was clean and seemed well organized.  He had 4 plastic covers, each containing onion , tomato, coriander and green chillies (all uncut). Highlight were the fresh lemons. He had papers folded like cones. A box with masala and a cover with loads of mixture. Like any office goer returning home, I too was slightly hungry for some munching. What better than bhel. I liked the way he customized my bhel by checking for the quantity of chilly and lemon. I liked it so much that I got one more for my sis. Thus began the love for bhel. One day it so happened that my husband was about to pick me up and I was waiting just next to the same bhel guy. I was an observer that day. In a span of 20 mins this guy served around 8 customers.  Interesting! I began talking to him(shhh......

Getting into a Child's shoe

Yesterday I had been to my cousin's place who has a 2 years old daughter. It's interesting to see the way the kid has grown. Every day she has a new thing to learn. Now like every 'proud' parent, my cousin started to play the 'tell me who is this' game with the kid. The kid answered patiently and happily coz every answer was followed with applauds. An hour later, we had a new visitor. The neighborhood aunty. She re-started the 'tell me who is this' game. And the kid continued answering with a smile. This made me get into a kids shoe and think of what he/she might be thinking at each age. Let me start with age Zero to 1 year. My parents hug and kiss me, I absolutely love it. I feel wanted. But why do they not talk properly? 'Mela thota baby thoyega,ghummi dayega ' . What the hell!! I do understand the language. Anywayz next comes the uncle next door, I was happy the first time he came and got me a gift. But was followed by a 'lu lu lu lu...

Tension- Do you think kids don't have any?

I was travelling in metro when a kid caught my attention. She was discussing about the 'tensions' in her life. I got interested. The kid was about 13 years old. Nicely dressed with a sweet demeanor. I started Evesdropping. What all could be the tensions of a teenager. She had a concern that internet at their home was slow, which reduced the pace of her project. Her rival would be submitting her project in a week's time. Next was that almost all her friends owned smart phones (she termed it as hi-fi :)), where as her parents never allowed her to play with their phones for more than an hour in a day. Next was about her upcoming birthday party. She wished to have a grand party and wanted to wear a short skirt. There were few more things. But I loved the way her mother handled it. She was all ears for her daughter and the kid felt happy about being heard. She was opening up. The mother never said No for any of the demands, instead she discussed on whys and whats. I was take...
