She: A Being
*Dedicated to the being that has inspired me all my life: In hopes to inspire you.* She felt old. Like an aged wine. Smooth on your throat with her sharpened experiences. She had felt a lot, seen a lot. Heard a lot. She felt old. She needed silence. The whirr of the fan, the … Read more
The Sacramento Flight Playlist
As I flew over clouds of dark nothing and looked out on clusters of lights and the almost dark horizon, I created a playlist for myself. Somehow all the music I picked had a theme that ended with ONE happy song. =) I thought I’d share with ya’ll. Here’s the Youtube playlist you can play while reading this post … Read more
Monday Morning Rant
So I’ve been advised to start this up. I’m told its therapeutic. Let’s see…. It’s not quite morning anymore, but I’m just doing it for the heck of it. This afternoon, I am going to butcher Build SFU. Since the launch of the Build SFU platform, the contention and questions have escalated and the support … Read more
Meetup 9/11
Meetup.com is an internet website that I got introduced to this summer. I’ve used it to attend French language meetups that I quite enjoyed. For me the idea of using a website for the use of community development is one worth considering. I got a letter today in the mail that I would like to … Read more
“You’re only as old as you feel”
I feel 5 years old. Sitting on the sidewalk beside my dad. The passers by aw-ing at us as they walk by on their shopping routines. My clothes matching dads. A replica or two twins? Just sitting there like two Indian cows, immobile and completely content in the attention we gather. I feel 10 years … Read more
Thunder Clouds A-Rumblin’
Is it not bad enough that I have a late enrollment date? Naw. They have to go ahead and have server issues. This is when I really wonder if Canadian universities are really all that or if I should have just gone to Harvard. I’m pretty sure people at Harvard have THEIR servers down during course enrollment too. … Read more
Blog block
I was sitting with my friend on the bus today. By chance we ended up talking about blogging. And while she was telling me of all the things she just wanted to keep on writing about, I, for the life of me, couldn’t figure out why I was so quiet. It’s not like I’m always … Read more
Photographie
My histoire with photography has been a very interesting one, and I shall do my best to do it some justice. My parents have worked professionally with camera’s before we came to Canada. When I was a little over 10, my dad took me to Lodhi Gardens, New Delhi (my hometown), to take pictures. That … Read more
La fête de la musique
After finishing two of my intersession courses at SFU, I decided that I need something to do this summer, other than spending half my day with a book. So I figured out that I will go to at least EIGHT festivals this summer. The first festival I went to actually happened before I had even … Read more
