Hi everyone...:)

Coming here after a long 2 months gap. Yes, I had a long winter break :). So, this should be a break from a break, right? So, I'm going to colourise this post with some photos taken today evening.

BTW, today we had a fantastic Holi celebration in our college.. That too was soo.. colourful. We all enjoyed very much...our last Holi celebration in GEC, Thrissur :(


Today after coming from college, I had an evening walk with my camera. These are some of the photos taken...


Way to puzha...


Sarppagandhi flower
See those small flowers. They look like the hood of snake. Aren't they?

Beautiful puzha






Hot hot Sun




It's just dry..dry..dry

This is my Nellayi. Isn't she beautiful?

See you all soon,

I'll miss you dear...

Yes...I'll miss her for sure. She has been my dearest friend for last 2-3 years. Everyday she comes my home to play with me. She likes to sing songs for me and to dance with my songs. We have quarelled too for silly matters. I enjoyed to the fullest, the time I spent with her. Mischievous glint flashing in her eyes made me happy always.

I am telling about our cute little angel Kavyakutti, my neighbour. I've told you about her here. She came here to her grandparents when she was only two months old. And, now she is three. Tomorrow she is leaving....with her parents.... to Dubai.

She will be leaving tomorrow early morning. And so, she had come here to say us 'tata bye bye'. Every night when she goes, she tells me 'tata bye bye..see you...good night' and finally a flying kiss too. Just like that, today also, she did the same. She told us that she's going to Dubai, though she doesn't know she's going away from us. Since I knew the fact, tears were rolling down from my eyes.



With sweet kisses and wishing her all the best in her life, I'm dedicating this post to our small litle angel.

Bye bye Kavyakutti....

Colours

I've heard about gender specific colours -- Blue is the colour of boys and Pink is the colour of girl! But, How could it be true! Who told so? Who decided so?


But, I know...hmm..everyone believe so. May be correct too. Should be a general case. But, I can't agree with it completely.

I've read in some articles that, till 1950s blue was the colour of girls and pink was the colour of boys. And after Nazi's use of Pink triangle in their concentration camps, reversal of colours happened. But, what all reasons hide behind this colour-swap? I don't know :(

You know, I made a research on this :). I asked many of my friends that which colour they liked the most. Surprisingly, 58.4% boys said blue is their favourite colour! But, only 7.7% girls voted for pink. And here is my report:

Boys

Blue - 58.4%
Green - 16.6%
Red - 16.6%
Orange - 8.33%



Girls(interesting)

Black - 46.1%
Orange - 15.4%
Red - 15.4%
Pink - 7.70%
Yellow - 7.70%
Blue - 7.70%


How's it? ;) What do you feel now, after analysing this report?

That's all for now. Today, Durgaashttami. Have to take my books to temple for official Pooja. Most of my classmates are not keeping their books for pooja this time, since our S6 exams going on.

Happy Navarathri to all of you....

Happy Onam

Today Uthradam. Everyone in a festive mood..right? Anyway, I'm so happy now for many reasons. Soo many unexpected things happened these days. I've been at the peak of happiness for the last few days. Thanks to someone* :)

This time too we had a blasting onam celebration at our college. We all had really a great time together. Made a big pookkalam in-front of our department. After that, we'd many interesting games like sundarikku pottu kuthal, uriyadi etc..


Then comes the most important part of celebration - Onasadhya with upperi, pappadam, pazham, payasam etc. Everyone got tired after sadhya, since we served to all our juniors and teachers :). Sadhya was really good. But I think, Payasam was not up to the mark.








Thus, we made our final-year onam celebration grand and ever memorable.

Here in Nellayi also we(changathikoottam) are going to have a great Onam.

Pookkalam made at our home today morning...



Wishing you all a very HAPPY ONAM

Resurrection from dormancy ;)

I haven't been here in blog world for the past two months. Had no reason for not writing...had no reason for writing too. Didn't feel like writing, that's all. And today I feel like scribblng here something and I do've a reason for that (can't call it as a reason, though).

I've told you about Kavyakutti (no clue how many of you remember her), whose parents reside in Dubai. They've come down here for their vacation. Yesterday they had come here. A nice chap her father is!(brought some sweets for us ;)).

In between our talk, he mentioned about my blog too. A couple of weeks back, he came across my blog and read some of its entries and got impressed(strange? :) ). BTW, this post comes as a result of the inspiration, I got from him. And so, I'm dedicating this post to him.

That's all for now...

Here are some snaps, I took from Marine drive, Ernakulam, last week when I had a hang-out with my parents ;)












Today, Chingam-1. Wishing in advance all of you, a very very Happy Onam...

See you all soon!

Reign Of Reality Shows.

Yes, the trend has changed. Reality shows have conquered all the TV channels. Is this scenario a new face of change? New face of trend? And how long will this trend last?

Years back, Madhu Mohan was the trend setter, who revolutionised Malayalm television programmes with his non-stop-entertainer-mega serials. Hmm..hh..giga serials. Actually, he was an all rounder in his serials with 'kadha, thirakhadha, sambhashanam, samvidhanam and abhinayam'. How gifted a person he is! ;)

Then comes the golden age of reality shows. Even though it hasn't marked the fall of 'kanneer serials', there came a sharing of dominancy. Mega serials are now advancing with a variety of devotional mega serials - Sree Guruvayoorappan, Alphonsamma etc.

But, I think reality shows are a bit more advanced in the case of varities they are having! Shows in dance, music(with and without performance), cookery, etc..and lots and lots of varieties(actually, I dont remember other varieties). I'm not a regular viewer of these TV programmes, but have seen its ads many a time...even that is enough and more for me.

I'm wondering why all these parents and children giving this much importance to these nonsense(personal opinion). I pity for those who are spoiling their precious time, money, and education running behind these shows(again per. opinion).

I agree, it's a stage for many gifted ones to show their talents before us. But actually,hmm... I dont know what to say...it has crossed the limits. I'm bored of these TV reality shows. I hate watching them.. I'm sure, atleast a few of you will be having the same view as of mine.

You know, now the most common words among us(generally) are sangathi, chemistry, elimination round, In/Out, energy, pitch etc. Is it not true? Even KG students are familiar with all these words.

Streams of tear gushing from viewers', participants', judges', anchors' eyes(elimination round-danger zone scenes with deep-sad music and black&white background)) is the worst thing. It's really pathetic. It seems to me that, emotional scenes are more in reality shows than in 'kanneer serials'. And, in many channels, presentation by some anchors are terrible and horrible.

I think...other TV programmes(malayalam channels) are also not exception. I've a lot more to tell you, regarding these TV programmes.(...a kind of frustration...?) But, this is enough, I guess.
