The Cooking Mood

Its kinda weird how i always felt so lazy at the thought of cooking something. All i knew was making tea and a scrambled egg or an omlet, last but not the least rotis.

These days my kitchen has become a favourite and so has cooking. I've been trying out new recipe's to kill the idle time, yeah am currently unemployed ..grrrr i so hate it. So to kill the lots of free and idle time that i have right now i decided to try my hand at cooking for a change and let others eat for that matter.

So i tried a few cakes and I also bumped into Pinterest omg!!! i didn't know i could get awesome recipes out there :P so now i think am going to be baking more often.

Apart from baking i've also been making stuff like cheese corn samosas, chicken & corn fritters & chicken bread, next i think i'm going to try  chinese too.

Lets see how long am going to stick onto this cooking habit ;)
Hehe ... will post soon with pics next time ciao!

Is the World really safe?


Everyday we  feel good about the city we stay in thinking how safe it is from others until we hear of some heinous crime again. Mumbai has been a victim quite a number of times yet the security system isn’t like it should be. The other day I was watching Crime Patrol where it showed how a teenage kid was badly hit on the road which lead to his death on the spot. 


This city has been a victim to terrorist attacks, bomb blasts and what not. Even after so much happening I wonder what the government does and why isn’t the security system upto date. Talk about technology and the changes in the city, there’s too much but how is it helping if the city isn’t safe?

People are being killed in broad daylight and no-one does anything about it. A stupid kid like the American citizen Dharun Ravi bullys his friend to such an extent that the poor kid commits suicide and all the Judge does is give him a 30 day imprisonment punishment, is that all ?

My bro calls me up yesterday from London and tells me about how a man was stabbed to death outside his house in broad day light. 

Africa, America, London, India, Pakistan, Iran, Iraq, Australia – which place is safer? Everywhere people commit crimes, some get arrested some commit more crimes and murder more people. Can we walk  freely without the fear of being kidnapped, raped or murdered?

What has happened to the world? We talk about education, development, liberalisation , democracy then what is happening? Why after all this there is still so many crimes, rapes & murders? 

What are the people who take responsibility for their countries doing? I only keep wondering and think again Is the world we live in really safe?

MBA life ends

Since i haven't written any post for a while i thought i'll just write a small post today. So finally College life comes to an end and  looking forward to a new beginning. I can't believe MBA life of 2 years passed as if it were 2 months!

I recall how everyday we kept cribbing about our projects and presentations but somehow we just managed to balance our life + sleep ( 2-3 hrs at times) and social life (which was almost dead) lol..
Friends kept abusing of having build up an attitude and not having time for them. I'm sure they'll know the pressure when they are in the same shoes.

 Now looking forward to where life takes me. Couldn't feel more happier for having been blessed with the best.
Thank you everyone for your support , Special thanks to my lovely Parents :)

Happy 2012!

Its been a while since I last blogged, Life’s been like a rollercoaster ride, fast and upside down. A lot has been happening lately and I haven’t been able to sit and give time to myself.


We are in 2012, A lot of people say the world will come to an end in the year 2012, but I don’t believe that because for me all the best things appear to be happening in 2012. People keep new year resolutions and then they break them too. After all “Rules are meant to be broken and so are resolutions” that’s the dialogue they frequently use. I don’t have no resolutions because for me nothing much has changed. However, I’d like to watch as many movies as I can this year and enjoy every moment of my life and cherish the memories I make this year.


I’ve been pursuing my internship which comes to an end this month. It has been a great experience but exhaustive too. I have been working Mon-Fri and Sat-Sun been attending college, so there hasn’t been much time for myself or for rest, Planning to take a break after my Internship.

Life changes as we step up another ladder towards the Corporate World!

Mumbai Autocar Performance Show

Modified Version of Toyota Corolla


Attended the Mumbai Autocar Performance Show 2011 at Bandra Kurla Complex. The cars in there were amazing. Even though I don’t have much idea about cars, there were some cars which I just loved. Cars like Audi and Mercedes have always been the most desired and loved ones by people but today I saw something different and new at the Expo !

There was this sexy car which was a modified version of Toyota Corolla!! If you look at the car it looked more like a Ferrari. Apart from this car there were BMW’S, Range Rover’s, Jaguar , Nissan’s 370z! Aah, Wish I can own one of them someday .

Bigg Boss 5 & Sunny Leone!



Suddenly Sunny Leone has grabbed all the attention on all the Social Networking Websites. She’s been trending on micro blogging site Twitter, her videos are being uploaded on youtube every now and then. Not only that, the most famous person on Twitter KRK has now shifted his focus from Miss Asin to Sunny Leone.

Sunny Leone as she rightly calls herself the Adult Movie Star is the new contestant in the Bigg Boss 5 House. If she’s just a guest like our Big Boss 4 contestant Pamela Anderson is yet to be known. People have been writing how a channel could stoop to such levels to rope in an Adult Movie Star to increase their TRP’S. Isn’t that what every channel wants ? TRP’S? Even if she wasn’t an adult movie star, she for sure is gorgeous and I’m sure many people would have still watched the show just for her beauty!

Im definitely sure people who are writing all this are the first ones to go and watch Bigg Boss now. KRK is now dreaming about Sunny Leone and of getting married to her , Asin must be breathing a sigh of relief now. Every night KRK used to tweet about Asin and now its Sunny Leone.

This is going to be the first time an Adult Movie star is going to appear on an Indian Television. The audience for sure is going to be glued to the television. Everyone is so curious to know whats going to happen in the Bigg Boss House. Pooja Mishra has done her best to entertain us with her fights and her behaviour. I just can’t stop laughing when I recall the November 14th Episode when there was an altercation between Siddharth and Pooja Mishra .

All the Social Networking websites have been sharing videos and tweeting about Sunny Leone now Lets see how Sunny Leone is going to add more spice to the reality show .

Services offered by Online Shopping Portals

Lately i have been buying most of my stuff online, be it a book, perfume or a vodafone recharge.

I have used these 3 websites till now : -

Fashion and You
Homeshop18
Flipkart

Out of the above 3 , I always preferred Fashion and You cos in terms of the looks and feel it gives & makes you feel more like a Niche customer. The website is designed in a very systematic way and looks great but there are lot of technical problems they face. Whenever they have a lot of schemes up on their website all at once their server crashes. This is one of the negative aspect of the website. It however has good offers which come up everyday at 11 am which stay for a couple of hours or days - it depends from brand to brand. However the website ships your order in about 2-3 weeks time so you have to wait for your order, but mostly they deliver your order within 2 weeks time or even 10-12 days. After ordering you can keep a track of your order on the website.You are sent an invoice via email and your tracking number is also given along with it, you also recieve an sms stating your ordered transaction number & order amount. The order as and when shipped is informed via email and sms. The ordered item is neatly packed and is in a great condition, therefore you are satisfied with the purchase.

Homeshop18 on the other hand is a pretty simple website, it does work on the look but Fashion and You still is way better in looks and usability. Homeshop18 does not have people endorsing the brands in the pictures and it has limited brands which it offers on the website, Fashion and You caters to the middle and upper middle class however Homeshop18 caters to the masses. The delivery time taken by Homeshop18 is said to be 7-8 days but when i ordered a book from the website the delivery was done almost after 2 weeks, which was very disappointing, the packaging was somewhat ok but after the order they did not send any tracking number. This was not a very good experience i had. Therefore, i would avoid ordering from Homeshop18 as much as possible.

Flipkart.com, the website which has been advertising on the Television lately does live upto the promises it does.It has a simple yet cool website. I ordered a book online on flipkart.com yesterday, it said that the order would be delivered within 3 business working days and i already had the order delivered today. After ordering, an email was sent to me along with an SMS stating the order confirmation and the amount of the order. Apart from the SMS and email which i recieved just after ordering, i also recieved an email stating the order has been shipped and will be delivered as soon as possible and a tracking number was also given. The ordered item was neatly packed and delivered in very good condition. Within 2 hours of the order being delivered the website again sent an email as well as sms stating the successful delivery of the order.

I really feel that Flipkart.com is being very proactive and delivering as per their promise, i hope other websites also start working like flipkart. One of the best thing about fashion and you is that they have this digital signature machine which they use when they deliver an order. These 2 websites are sure on my top list for buying stuff online next time. If you know of any website recommendations are more than welcome Ciao!
