Hey Guys.

I have decided to scrap the idea of doing monthly wrap-ups of books as there will be months I read a lot and few dry spells. So, I came up with a new idea… I will post reviews of books once I finish reading five books. I have decided to read 52 books this year and honestly I am not to a great start. But hey, the year is just beginning.

So, here are my five recent reads –

This year got off to a busy and a rocking start. We went on a road trip to Kerala in the beginning of the year and then followed the exam frenzy. Now, things seem to have finally calmed down and I can finally create this list of resolutions goals for this year. After mulling over the 70 odd goals I have haphazardly jotted down in the journal I started this year, I have come down to 17 things that I definitely want hope to accomplish.

Dear 2016

Dear 2016,

I am sad to see you go. I know many people have said that you have been shitty and are glad that you are over and I get why. The world had a difficult 2016.

A movie about Dhoni, starring Sushant Singh Rajput! How could I not watch it?

Excitement and expectations running through every vein in our bodies I and husband walked in to the movie theater on Sunday night. We wanted to get to know the man who was instrumental in India winning the World Cup after 28 long years and also learn how a small town boy Mahi became DHONI. Did we get to know the man behind the scenes? Yes… in a way. Did we walk out with new found love and respect for Dhoni… no not really.

I really pity …



oscars-2016

I credit Oscars for piking my interest in my Red Carpet events. It was when Leonardo DiCaprio was nominated for Best Actor award for Blood Diamond that I sat down to watch the entire show in hopes to see Leonardo DiCaprio win. While that didn’t happen I fell in love with the gowns that Penelope Cruz and Beyonce donned and rest as they say is history.

This time too I woke up early in the morning to catch the event, though I missed the red carpet this time Leonardo DiCaprio winning made my day.

Coming to the Red Carpet I …

2015

As I sit in my comfy chair and type away I realize that I missed my home more than I thought I would. Not that our 25 day long road trip wasn’t magical… because it was, and I can’t wait for our next big adventure. But being home in your pj’s, not bothering about how you look and just relaxing has its own charm and I terribly missed it.

I know you guys are lost and are wondering what 25 days long road trip am I talking about? Well, I was off to Bhutan in the month of December and …
