All my friends are tagged already...so :(

Am I getting old?

Monday morning!...Came little late to office.
Not in a mood to start work, so went for a coffee with colleague.

Two others joined us, One is IT head n other manager. I was very pleased by the way they volunteered themselves to join us. I just got introduced to them few days back when I joined.

We were talking about various matters, Especially about Christmas celebration going in S'pore.
Then a sudden question was asked to me.."Wat is ur husband?"....

I was shocked. No one asked me that question before. Seeing my expression he immediately realized that I am not married. Then the topic changed but I was thinking about it.

How can he possible ask that question? Do I look that Old?

Then I remembered all similar instances.
1. I am at my relatives place. A small kid comes to me n says "Aunty, where is chinnu?" Chinnu is my cousin n he was in 3rd std at that time and I was in 11th.

2. I was traveling by bus and a kid is next to me. There was a sudden break n I held him immediately so that he won’t fall. His grand mom was very happy at my help n says to the kid “Aunty has saved u from getting hurt. Say her thank you”. I was in first year of Engineering.

3. When ever I go to grandma’s place, the servant maid says to her “This year u must get her married”. This started when I was in 10th.

But then there were instances also when i felt i was younger than i am.
1. A couple were sitting next to me in train. She asked me ‘Are u in Inter? Which college?’. Actually i was working at that time. My Inter was 6 years back.

2. New family has come for rent in our house. On first day the wife asked me 'Did u not go to school today?' I was doing my BE then.

3. I was talking to a 7th std kid, who is my cousins friend. She asked me "Akka, which class are u in?" I was working at that time.

There were instances when I mistaken someone about their age.
1. Once in a marriage, I was introduced to married woman, I talked to her and addressed as ‘Aunty’. Later I got to know she is younger to me.

2. Again in another marriage, I was introduced to a guy, I said ‘Namaste uncle’, later my dad told me that he is brother to me in relation and almost of my age.

3. I was asked to call someone in a get together, I went to her n said, ‘Aunty someone is calling u’. Later I got to know she is my grand mom in relation.

I should be careful next time :)))

Fun/funny in S'pore

Singapore....I am lucky to be in S'pore for 6 months (Thanks to dmk).

Its my 6th day in S'pore and i already explored many things here...tasted indian food, watched movie,went to big malls....(Thanks to aloh :p).

So i was in this biggest mall in Raffles Place..Its called SuntecCityMall. Let me explain little more about this place so that its helps you in future. This mall has 5 buildings, in the shape of hand, thumb and four fingers. In the centre is the world's lagest fountain, 'Fountain of wealth'.

I was looking around and not in best of my moods to shop. My eye caught a very good collect of delicate oranaments made of platinum (i think so).I was walking towards it. I like them, especially one of them, a braclet with pink stones. I wanted to have a closer look..i put my step to walk more close..then BANG @#*! There is a glass!

Everyone in the shop froze and turned to me. Then the immediate question came "Did it hurt?"...and the quick responce without even thinking if it really hurt.."NO". No one recorded it, if not it wud have been the BEST ad for glass :) Did it happen to U :p:p:p

Dreams unlimited

Dreams....It's a mystery to me. When I was a kid, I used to think that I see movies when I sleep. As I watch too much Television during daytime (my mom complains so), I get the same thing during nights, just that the programs here are very different. Later I was told that dreams are my imagination blah.... blah......

I always get this dream...anaconda trying to eat me and I am desperately running for help. some times anaconda is replaced by gorilla/dinosaur/alien....and when I get up, I would be breathing heavily and sweating as if I was actually running...I convinced myself that I watched too many movies like anaconda, Jurassic park etc. like that I started fitting some or the other reason for my dreams. I used to feel proud to find a reason for my dream, as if I discovered something no one has done till date.

Have you ever faced problem in remembering names, Important days etc. It was a big problem for me. Why did I change the topic and how is it related to dreams? Let me explain.... So I always find ways to remember names and dates. Since all my friends are aware of this, I get mails and calls reminding me of b'days.

So one day I had this dream....I am talking to a beautiful girl...she is in her school uniform...she is talking about some teachers, dance...I could just see her face...and she is asking me few questions...In the morning I got up and I was trying hard to map this dream to something...I cud just remember that I had seen the face somewhere...Then it stuck me.......................

We gave a dance program in our school and she was in that dance with me...This is was in my 5th standard. Her name is was sitalakshmi. She is was one yr junior to me...Her dad was a doc, and she wanted to become a doctor. Her dance partner was sushma...we used to talk during dance practice, but very less...after that she left the school.................

I was so amazed.... Daily I struggle so much with names and faces, how cud I remember minute details about this girl and why did I get this dream....Dreams are really a mystery. I failed this time to find a reason. I laughed at myself, at my stupid rule I made to give reasons for my dreams.wondering if she has become a doctor now after 13 years, I got up from my bed.
