How awesome are we?

It amazes me how awesome the ad industry is. Do you realize that this industry churns out new ways of reaching the audience, new ways of attracting their attention, new ways of showcasing its creativity all the time. We combine the newest technology and blend our bit of ceativity into it. That’s how email blitzkrieg, [...]

Attacking me

I go through all my old posts where I have written about experiencing blasts, floods and other calamities in Mumbai, and I come back to what I have been feeling since I woke up yesterday morning. Sickw ith worry, but a very different kind of sick. A very different kind of worry.

Demons, the real ones..

*The post before the last one*
Normally her demons arose in the night. They turned the normally flippant, brilliantly blunt and straight answering girl into a blubbering, confused and sobbing girl. The world knew her as a very arrogant and collected person. She bounced back from all her problems and issues didn’t she?She did, but [...]

Sometimes it must be nice to be a guy..

Forgive the stereotyping but…
Muscle doesn’t look bad on you.
