Monday, September 27, 2010. IF you can keep your head when all about you. Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,. If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,. But make allowance for their doubting too;. If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,. Or being lied about, don't deal in lies,. Or being hated, don't give way to hating,. And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise:. If you can dream - and not make dreams your master;. If you can think - and not make thoughts your aim;. And - which i...

Wednesday, March 07, 2007. A tale of two weddings. As always, our media has lived up to it's expectations. After all, Arun Nayar is a playboy billionaire of London who fought and won a bitter divorce battle with his Italian ex-wife. Elizabeth Hurley is one of the very few celebrities who climbed the ladder of fame just with the help of "trigger-happy" photographers rather than her acting skills. Can they be better qualified to occupy the front pages of our newspapers? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Saturday, February 09, 2008. Though I am guilty of crying hoarse about traffic jams in Bangalore, there are plenty of things dear to me about Bangalore (I refuse to call it Bengalooru) and let the nostalgia flow. 1 Janata Hotel, Malleshwaram. 2 Corner House, Residency Road. 3 Halli Mane, Malleshwaram. Located on the one-way street of Sampige Road, it used to take us forever to reach Halli Mane. Though the "rural" tag didn't sound convincing, the food was excellent. The akki rotti, anna saaru, mos...I alw...

Tuesday, May 13, 2008. We all know about Indian media picking up the most irrelevant issues and looking at it with the most pessimistic eyes. With the increasing popularity of the blogosphere, a debate on the "good" and the "bad" of blogs by our media was long pending. So, we have Barkha Dutt of NDTV. Bring in a few bloggers to her show and debate on whether blogs should be regulated. Discussions from credible authors. To fill up that boring hour at office. A valid point brought out by Barkha is that whi...

Reflections: November 2011
http://asnagesh.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
Sunday, November 27, 2011. From the day we arrive on this planet. And blinking, step into the sun. There's more to see than can ever be seen. More to do than can ever be done. There is far too much to take in here. More to find than can ever be found. But the sun rolling high. Through the sapphire sky. Keeps great and small on the endless round. It's the circle of life. And it moves us all. Through despair and hope. Through faith and love. Till we find our place. On the path unwinding. The circle of life.

Monday, March 12, 2007. There have been many instances where the editors at Times of India have been caught napping. Is one such instance which proves exactly that. The articles is trying to convey that Kareena Kapoor is going great guns in her career. The author obviously new to the job is making an all out effort to use metaphors and words right out of his high school english textbook. Thus we have phrases like ". She’s looking like a million dollars these days. The article goes on to say ".

Monday, January 22, 2007. Leaving out a few cosmopolitan cities in the south of India, Hindi is outrightly. Banished from the society and kids grow up with a notion of Hindi being a sin etched in their minds. Consequently, when we have a group of people from different corners of India in a conversation, there is no common medium for communication except English. Isn't this so typical of a nation with a colonial past? English may have opened up the gates for India into the world scene. Masala Dosa or Mala...

Monday, January 05, 2009. Monday blues . . Two years since beginning my "working life", I am beginning to feel the monday morning blues. If ever there was a day I had to drag myself off to work against all my wishes, it was today;. One week on-site in Mumbai. Two days pilgrimage to my favourite temples. One week laid up in bed with a fever that refuses to go away. The monday after all this is really a drag. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Shelfari: Book reviews on your book blog. Monday blues . .
