I AM TAGGED SO HERE I GO

Zeba you got me
Since quite some time I really wanted to write something very light (last few posts have been thought generating) so just wanted to try my hand on something which may make others smile a little and And then you tagged me. This is what I wanted!!!! Oh la la!!!!
So here I go

Four Points (Me tagged!!!)
Four places you have lived –

DELHI (the name only brings smile on my face and tons of nostalgic memories) as I say I was manufactured and then developed in Delhi and I have spent half of my life in Delhi. all those childhood pranks, the teenage crushes ( mind the plural use of the word) ( and I can imagine Neha's raised eye brows) college days, my first salary, bunking office to see first day first show of new released movies ( bunking office Can you believe it?) I Feel like singing CHOD AAYE VO GALIYAN and KOI LAUTA DE MERE VO BEETE HUE DIN)

BOMBAY second half of my life spent here ( and don’t know how many more years will I be there in this exciting city) When in Delhi this was always my dream to visit Bombay once.( Dint know that destiny will bring me permanently to this city. The first time I set foot in Bombay and saw the sea, I literally jumped from my seat and was so excited that my dad had to restrain me from dancing on the roads. Bombay had the glamour of film Industry. I walked on the road believing that film stars will bewalking all over Bombay. This is the place where I entered the new alien phase of my life i.e. my married life, and then I got my two pearls , my daughter and my son and I felt complete.
I think Bombay has given me a lot.
PRATAPGARH; My native place a small town in Rajasthan. All my summer vacations before marriage were spent there with my grandparentsand my family. Just one thing about this place which I am sure all of you reading this will enjoy. During marriage in my native place even the brides sits on a horse( in all her bridal finery) and takes round of full village and goes to her husband’s house to take the blessings of her inlaws.

BOSTON I stayed only for one month exactly but one of the best periods of my life. I got to see how my little one was managing all alone there and how independent she had become and she pampered me and took care of me like a precious china doll by saying “ Mumma you deserve this holiday”

Four T.V shows you love(d) to watch –

ONLY FOUR ;-( very difficult. I will just go mad thinking about all the serials and then selecting from that.
Here’s Lucy ( a very old English serial ) which used to come once during the early years of Television and my first serial
Ballika vadhu (The latest craze for all TV addicts)
Sarabhai vs Sarabhai a subtle comedy show without resorting to stupid mannerisms or two meaning dialogues and based on day to day affairs.

Tag Four People You Believe Will Respond

Neha ( I want to know more and more about her, don’t want to miss on any aspect of her life, quite a possessive and over indulgent mother I am!!!)
IHM ( I don’t know whether she will respond to this or not But I would love to know her responses) Ramya (I just love her posts and feels very motherly towards her)
Ashish (his expressions and style of writing is too much, Lets see what he comes up with)

The 4 things in life actually teach a lot about yourself as a person and the inner hidden creature in you. I am glad bhuva, that you spend so much time and devote quite a brain power filled with emotions to the blogging world. Keep up the good job and I'll continue to get inspiration from my elders.

Hello ma'am, yet again!

Interesting idea!

Enjoyed reading this particular post. And just maybe overlooked by yourself, you've experienced the widest spectrum of life--right from a village in Rajasthan to Boston--aren't you lucky?

I don't know you've heard of this book or not--'The Fountainhead' by Ayn Rand. She was a female author, and I feel you might enjoy the book once you cross the first thirty or so pages, which might feel insipid. And if you desire to read something with a female protagonist, read the next novel in line--'Atlas shrugger'. But then unfortunately, both novels are extremely long.

Just one more thing I wanted to convey--I comment through my cell phone, and the theme of your blog is such that it takes a lot of time to load. Which makes my commenting very inconvenient. Not that I'm complaining 'cuz that'd be too audacious as your blog's theme is your prerogative, but then just wanted to bring this issue to your notice.

Have a nice day!

TC.
