Dreams come true. Without that possibility, nature would not incite us to have them.

I have been so busy with my exhibition havent had time to blog.
I displayed about 50 sarees last weekend over wine and cheese and sold out by the third day(ok it was a three day exhibition).
Not too happy with the exhibition though,i reduced prices on the third day which is when stock dissapeared.the first two days werent too bad managed selling 20 pieces.lesson learnt:keep prices slightly lower.
off on a vacation to london tomo,cant really call it that coz i m getting back on wednesday.Just 5 days.and i hate london.its cold,depressing and "grey" not to forget very expensive.
Anyway I am just tagging along with mama,so dont really need to worry about finances.
Oh a weddings coming up....a coz is getting married in december and i m busy getting my sarees done,dont have blouses to match so picking up brocades for that.hate december weddings too cold and i dont like donning sweaters.so i m attending only three ceremonies even though the love of my life will be there throughout.

“Not all those who wander are lost.” Tolkien

“All that is gold does not glitter, not all those who wander are lost; the old that is strong does not wither, deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, a light from the shadows shall spring; renenwed shall be blade that was broken, the crownless again shall be king.”
Tolkien, Lord of the Rings.

Goa was a blast,a very hurried trip though. I am tanned and trimmer,no surprise considering i lived on fish and coconut water.I love my new body and my new hair( straigtened it poker straight as in rebonded) and cant forget my skin which is now the colour of honey.Love what a good EVEN tan does to you.Back in Delhi a day ago and havent had time to breathe,meetings back to back then went out last night,an old family friend got back into the country and called me up....very out of the blue.I was still in beach bum mode so ended up being very inappropriately dressed for dinner. Ate at 19 Oriental Avenue....great food.Even the sushi was good and I am very particular about sushi( i dislike it more often than not).Prawns in basil sause for main course which was excellent.Dessert was a platter, i know i know but its been so long since I ate or even thought of dessert....dug into chocolate mousse,mango cheesecake,ice cream with nuts and caramel and strawberry shortcake.I bit into the rest but finished my mousse completely......my loyalties are always going to be with chocolate.

Anyway the family friend(s son actually) turned into a 31 year old really cute as in chocolaty, easy going boy.I like him as in hes friendly and sweet but its defenitely not love at first sight.Incase i didnt mention,dinner was a set up by our parents(which i turned a blind eye to) I had postponed it for the last three months,pressure was mounting which explains last night.

Polo season is starting. Dont have time to go watch matches though.A few cousins are playing so will need to take some time out there.

Maxed my debit card.Dnt use credit and suddenly I had no money,as i write this my account has 232 bucks in it.I picked up a winter jacket,a new pair of sunglasses,a suede skirt to match my boots,paid for my vacation, rebonded my hair and suddenly i am broke. Anyway called my dad and he very sweetly put in 20,000 to last me the month. This after I refused to take a penny from him in March(started working then).Its just a loan.wink....

Off travelling this weekend.I am actually taking my mom to our cottage in Bhimtal.Its lovely but very dilapidated.Its a five room structure standing on a hill and has the most amazing veiw to the deserted valley below.One side of the hill has apple orchards while the other has stunning pine trees.It gets unbearably cold even with heaters running from November to February, not to forget dangerous, the cheetahs come down looking for food and I dont want to volunteer.So making our last trip till March next year.Back on Monday morning.More about Bhimtal then.Pictures dont load here,i wanted to post a few here.Anyway back to work now.....my brocade bags first samples out today so off to rectify some problems in it.
Also another event coming up, planning to do this one up in white and crystal.no colours at all and i m bored of silver and gold.ciao and have a great weekend.

I took an impulsive flight on friday and found myself in Goa.Wanting to go there since last year so I just went ahead and did exactly that.Took a cab to North Goa-serene peaceful beaches and some very great food.

The northern beaches of Goa are labeled “uninspiring” by the guide books, but in my opinion they are some of the best places to be in Goa if all you are looking for is a relaxed and pleasant beach holiday without too much hassle.It is a place where you see more couples with small kids than young rucksack travellers.The best part about these beaches are there is no one.Absolutely no one so you feel like you have a private beach all to yourself.luxury travelling at very cheap rates.


The tranquil nature zoneNorth of Anjuna is again a hill with yet another old Portuguese fort, and yet another river which marks the next borderline. If you cross the bridge, a kilometer up the river, you find yourself in peaceful countryside with a few remote beach resorts, and some widespread, empty beaches.This is the place to go when you just want “to get away from it all”, to breathe some fresh air and enjoy the nature as it looks around here. All the little animals on the beach are alive here. The beach is so wide here that it feels like staying in a desert hotel.One or two kilometers south of Madrem Beach you find Asvem Beach with several nice little bungalows scattered in-between the coconut palmtrees, and nice cafes.

Goa is so stunning devoid of human traces, even the muddy water, terrible water sports facilities all of thats forgiven for the peace that place provides.

I start my day with a jog by the beach.Then move on to exploring beaches ,churches and markets,eat at road side eateries,even taking a cooking class.I love life right now......dont know how long this sense of peace will last.

Of shaadis & Shehnaais

The weddings were so much fun last night,I love indian weddings they are colourful, bright, happy and so much fun to be at.I finished working at 8.30 last night which gave me precisely 15 minutes to get ready.Draped my sari and rushed off to the first farm house.Serious political scene and very quite.I ate some deeeeelicous prawns and socialized for an hour before moving to the next shaadi with another bunch of friends.

This one rocked.I could barely get inside and there were ppl everywhere.Bonded with a few classmates from college, socialized till midnight that is when my super heavy sari was beginning to drag me down.I was so tired and decided to leave by 1 am coz there were talks of a champagne breakfast. Enough to scare the living day lights out of me for sure.Where do ppl get the energy to party like this?Maybe its the alcohol, I am a teetotaller so thats one reason less to stay for champagne breakfasts.The love of my life was there with his girlfriend.I know its not worth my time but sometimes we love with nothing more than hope and cry with everything but tears.In the end thats all there is love and its duty sorrow and its truth.Thats all I have every single night to cling onto till dawn approaches and I try forgetting the ache with work and friends.At the end of the day its just me and I need to accept that and find happiness in it.

An old friend called in the morning and woke me up at six this after I slept at three. Last night all I drank was a diet coke and ate four pcs of prawns I was so famished by eight (which is when I usually wake up) that I accepted her breakfast invitation.So there I was eating breakfast at The Oberoi shocking everyone with my appetite.I wanted to go to American Diner but she insisted on the buffet.Why would someone waste good money on a buffet and drink only a glass of juice for breakfast?Thats exactly what she did.I on the other hand ate chicken sausages with cheese, a platter of fruit and a glass of cold coffee.Fininshing work now and off to see a site I am planning to do up. Its a two storey office which I will do up in silver and black.Personally prefer something more classic though.I have a great concept though planning not to make it too office-ish ass plenty of lights,plants and couches while breaking the monotony of silver and black with rich colourful rugs.

Another day, another life.
