Grumpy


Grumpy, originally uploaded by ShonC.

When was the last time you felt like a grumpy 2 year old? Struggling to find words that describe what you need. And then out of frustration throwing a tantrum (or atleast wanting to throw one) like wearing the same clothes for 2 days and not letting anyone touch your hair? :)

Cruise Control


Thirsty?, originally uploaded by ShonC.

My new mission is to be able to put life on cruise control or auto pilot. Hand over the reigns, watch the scenery go by and just enjoy the ride. Smell the roses as they say. What say?

For those of you that don't know, I broke my camera inHK :( Yes I dropped my baby! So until it's repaired, I've decided to try some thing new.. tennis! I have my first lesson tomorrow. Very excited about it. Wish me luck and pray I don't drop dead after 10 minutes of playing! :)

Back in the US?


Huh, originally uploaded by ShonC.

Physically I'm in the US. Everything besides my body is still back in India. Most of you that live here and go home anually know exactly what I'm going through. The standard questions to self: Why am I here? Is this worth it? What's important in life?

I'm anxious for these questions to fade away behind the busy fascade of the city life. Right now I'm letting my overactive imagination relive every little moment while the concious self struggles to come back to reality.

Random things pop into my head such as this conversation which makes me smile even now when I think of it!

{My niece playing with a friend her age}
Rianna (busy playing with her toys): Ayesha
Ayesha (not looking up, also busy with her toys): Haan
Rianna (still playing): Ayesha
Ayesha (very patiently): Haan
Rianna (pushing her luck): Ayesha
Ayesha (still very very patient, we're friends after all!): Haan
Rianna (pointing towards her t-shirt which has a jelly fish on it): Jelly!
Both beam at each other for a brief moment before getting busy with the toys again.

:) Simple pleasures in life. I really want to watch my niece spread powdo (=powder) on the table and turn everything white while smiling infectiously or roar like the Tigo (=Tiger.)
