Me and My Madness: Moving On...
http://ardramaanasam.blogspot.com/2011/06/two-months-short-of-year-of-hiatus-too.html
Me and My Madness. Thursday, 16 June 2011. Two months short of a year of hiatus - too bad, I know! But then life is like that I guess. Sometimes it flows, as smooth as Dairy Milk Silk, and sometimes there are far too many roadblocks. But then, I came home! That is always a happy place to be, or so I thought! The syndrome that I spoke about in. Post had hit third degree by then - come on, it was almost six months since my course had finished, and here I was, doing NOTHING! So there I was, sitting comforta...

Me and My Madness: May 2009
http://ardramaanasam.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html
Me and My Madness. Tuesday, 26 May 2009. Pehli Pehli Malayalam Movie Review! I am delighted as I write this post. It is surprising that I never wrote about my thoughts on any Malayalam movie before! It's not like I watched a lot of them while I was in Hyderabad. Still, there were a couple of them. May be because they were so rare. May be I would just sit and relish the experience of hearing Malayalam on DTS (and not Hindi) rather than blog about it! Anyway, better late than never, right? Five of them -.

Me and My Madness: Back in my nest...
http://ardramaanasam.blogspot.com/2010/05/back-in-my-nest.html
Me and My Madness. Wednesday, 26 May 2010. Back in my nest. All over - the exams, the course, the madness. And I am home. During the entire month of April, when my classmates were frantically going about applying for jobs, I told myself: you deserve a break, go ahead and take that, please don't enter the rat race. And now, here I am, totally enjoying this 'doing nothing' phase, but finding it difficult to answer people's questions. Every second person I meet invariably asks: So what next? About planning ...

Me and My Madness: February 2009
http://ardramaanasam.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
Me and My Madness. Saturday, 7 February 2009. Home is where thou hearth is! Statutory Warning : This post is very long. As much close to my heart as well. Most of us would agree that 'home' is not just a word or a concept. It is a world in itself. My version is that it rests in the security of our hearts with gallons of emotions compressed inside. I have stayed away from my home for the past six years. It has been a life changing time for me. Resignation from Google which was another kind. Definitely not...

Me and My Madness: August 2010
http://ardramaanasam.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
Me and My Madness. Sunday, 15 August 2010. Missing home and myself. The Indian Independence Day dawn is just a few hours away. And I am in a country that is not mine. I have come here before, as a tourist. To see as many malls as I could, to eat as many previously-not-eaten-delicacies as I could, to visit as many relatives as I could – the objectives, the bent of mind, everything was typical. It felt great while it lasted. My country doesn’t pay as much money. With soaring house rents and real ...My coun...

Me and My Madness: January 2009
http://ardramaanasam.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html
Me and My Madness. Saturday, 24 January 2009. Save the Green Planet, my sensory organs and a revelation. The protagonist of the movie is crazy in the world’s perspective. Five minutes into the movie he kidnaps a corporate honcho who he thinks is an alien who will endanger the whole planet and its species. The movie then went on for about ninety minutes to show the ruthless torture that our ‘hero’ (protagonist is definitely the better word) subjects the villain (? I then thought how wrong generalisations ...

Me and My Madness: December 2008
http://ardramaanasam.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
Me and My Madness. Thursday, 11 December 2008. Memoir of a Month. This one is tough due to the sheer length of the time period involved. I haven’t been posting here for a month and it was not due to the lack of inspiration that happens to most bloggers once in a while. As I had told you all, it was exam season. But then, that got over on 26. December. What was I doing after that? Precisely, movie watching for about four days and little bit of packing to complement it. On December 1. People nag you withou...

Me and My Madness: Some of those huge changes...
http://ardramaanasam.blogspot.com/2008/09/some-of-those-huge-changes.html
Me and My Madness. Thursday, 4 September 2008. Some of those huge changes. Saying bye bye to work at Google is not easy. If you know what I mean. Ah, for those of you who don't know me too well, I was with Google for close to 27 months. Its a long time, right? It was increasing becoming difficult to even think that it would be possible to let go my lifestyle of a working girl. The longer that life, the harder it gets to break off. No need to say this - my life has changed drastically. I changed my re...
