Opinions Needed

Okay. So I bought a bag today. A shiny silver bag. SILVER. Now I know what your thinking, "Silver! Isn't that a little loud" or a better word in fact would be 'jhatak'.

And now I'm in doubt. Whether I should have bought the bag or no cause its silver. And not really me. As everybody I tell about the bag seems to be pointing out.

So now basically I need some opinions. Cause I spent a whole 200 bucks on it and for a poor struggling college student, 200 bucks is a hell of a lot of money.

So anyway, I'm putting up the pics. Let me know.


And after taking virtually all evening to upload. Here it is. I apologise for the bad picture. My camera battery was really low and kept going off.

What do you guys think? Honestly.

A tad flashy. But the thing is, if you team it up with really plain clothes (say a simple plain white or black t-shirt or one with just halka sa print on it and simple blue jeans or something) it will go well.

If you're so unsure, can't you get it exchanged???

@ Homecooked : Thanks. That was the plan when I bought it but then everybody kept saying 'you and silver?" cause normally I don't wear colours like that. But I did wear it today and everybody loved it so yay!! 200 bucks well spunt

@ Moo: Thank you: Wore it with a green tee today and everybody said it looked good and I'm thrilled now.

I couldn't get it exchanged cause they don't exchange bags apparently.

I like the bag and would couple it with those little ballerina shoes that are doing the rounds... in silver. And big, chunky, hanging, silver ear rings... and either one, thick silver bracelet or about 8 slim ones. Sorry, am gettin carried away. but the bag looks cool. ;)

@ Eve : Thank you ever so much. I think the bag looks cool too. Just when through a little phase of doubt but i'm over it now and besides the bag looks amazing when I carry it to go out clubbing. Along with the ballerinas and the earrings of course.

Also, I caught you on NDTV's 'We The People' and It was very cool the way you held your own.

Thanks for dropping by. You have no idea how thrilled I am :D

Remembering Avanti

Day before yesterday, on the 8th of November 2008, Avanti Desai would have turned 21. Instead 15 days before her birthday, as she hurried home to celebrate her grandmother's birthday, Avanti met with a train accident at Jogeshwari station. Just like that. Gone from our lives forever. Leaving behind a huge void and the world a lot more gloomier. And when I got the call first thing in the morning, I couldn't believe it. I thought it was a cruel sadistic joke, but as the calls kept coming in, I realised it was true. Even at the cemetary,, it still hadn't sunk in that Avanti was no longer here. The worst moment though was watching her disappear into the crematorium, it was horrible and I couldn't believe we were leaving her there, and through the next couple of hours all I could think of was of her going up in smoke while we stood there in the bright sunshine. It seemed incomprehensible at first, to think of Avanti as dead, to talk about her in the past tense, to get...

The one with all the food

While I've already done the Happiness is tag once before, I've had food on my mind an awful lot lately. I'm comfort-eating myself all the way to obesity, but I just can't bring myself to care somehow. Anyhoo, Happiness is..

Dhan Dhana Dhan Goal

I watched Dhan Dhana Dhan Goal over the weekend. First day first show in fact and it was fun. A paisa vasool movie if nothing else. Goal absolutely belongs to John Abraham. You cannot take your eyes off him when he's on screen and he does superbly well in a film that doesn't need much histrionics. And his smile. Its just the best. I'm a sucker for nice smiles. The kind where the eyes get all crinkly and his entire face just lights up. Bipasha Basu doesn't have much to do in the film and is incredibly inept at what she does do. She just doesn't come across well. The songs are pretty good. I especially loved Halla Bol. Billo Rani on the other hand is a nonsensical film and would have fitted in better in a movie about UP or Bihar. And how a bunch of footballers who are struggling to pay rent for their club manage to come up with enough money to hire dancers and a vulgar looking singer is beyond me. The movie though doesn't do much for me. The computer animation is ...
