I'm Back!

Monday, June 29, 2009 Edit This
I had been away for 2 weeks to visit my granny. Flew from Kuwait to Kerala (India) via Dubai by Emirates. I just love flying Emirates - hats off to their punctual and superb services. Being a Skywards member, got a free upgrade to Business class. How cool is that! Although, I have flown in the B class before, the food used to be good, but this time it was awful except for the only two things I had - tuna salad and apple juice yummm!

Dubai airport - who doesn't love it!

If there is something green, I've always preferred Kerala - one of the beautiful states of India. Kerala, the land of coconuts, endowed with lush green scenic beauty, sun-kissed beaches, emarald backwaters, verdant hill stations, sprawling plantations of tea, coffee, spice, rubbers, etc. In what every part of the state you will travel, you will find heart grabbing greenery all around.My paddy fields

The blues of the sky, the blue waters of the beach and lush green surrounding with enchanting birds provide an ambiance like no other.Granny's favourite flower... God knows its name!
My dinner... hehehe

It's the monsoon season and the word itself makes one happy. The intoxicating smell of dry Earth getting drenched, the splashing waters and the tiny paper boats sailing on the clogged water is indeed an inexpensive and memorable treat to anyone. The farmers rejoice in the showers that promise to bring them prosperity. The monsoon makes the peacock dance with joy and the mango flowers bloom. I did have a variety of mangoes and it was simply delicious!

Kit Kat Dark

Friday, June 05, 2009 Edit This

I just bought a Kit Kit Dark chocolate. Didn't know they had this or was it released recently? I was too eager to taste it... Not bad but i found it slight bitter... I prefer the normal ones.

Dad bought Lindt dark chocolate with 85% cocoa and it's so sour... eeeeewwwwwww!!!!

Elegance

WaveTwit tweeted me a really nice question and something worth to ponder over.

My brain's rusted lollll ....

Ok, here's her question:

"What constitutes elegance?"

Somehow, I liked her question and it really made me to think! ***dusting off the rust***

What do you think pals?

... If elegance were an object, what would it be?

... If elegance were a moment, when would it be?

... If elegance were a person, who would it be?

... And. if elegance were a place, where would it be?

Help! I Need A New Blog Name!

Wednesday, June 03, 2009 Edit This


I googled up www.elegantchic.com and voila! There exists a website by that name. Sucks!!!

One of the most frustrating things about creating your startup is the naming process!!!

I need a new name for my blog. Something short (URL must be available). Any ideas?

And, a new blogging platform too. Obviously, I currently use Blogger. But, will simply switching to my own domain (still using Blogger) really help my traffic/rankings? Is there a better platform (WordPress, TypePad, etc)? Or, should I skip these platforms altogether and build my own blog?

If you can come up with a new name or give me some pros and cons about blogging platform changes, I'll give you some great recognition (i.e. link, etc) through this blog. :)

Your thoughts and comments are welcome!

Go for a domain or stay here? I need to change the template... too lazy to edit even though now I have plenty of leisure time ;p
