I see the me in you...

Hiya!! I just got a day-off from my inplant training. So, i planned to make a short trip somewhere out. And you know what, like my other plans it didn't flop and went really well :) .
My mind sensed a few things are too good in life.

• A bus journey however horrible it be, is always fun when you have some nice friend.
• Ice lemon tea tastes good (today i tried it for the first time...and it was gud)
• At times you never know when you turn hyper and speak like a FM (hey watch out!! as a matter of fact i dunno if speaking out is bad...but am planning to watch out)
• At times trying to act seriously can really bluff people.. ( a big NO...am not going to try it again)

But the worst part of bus-travel is travelling all alone. I did that on my way back home :(
I had to travel for around 40 minutes and the scorching sun made me sleep, though i tried my best not to. Finally i decided to keep me awake. And i knew what i had to do!! (common i always have a pen and a paper..)Wow, now i had a reason too..wat's next...nandhu started to write her lyric.. :)

I just thought of my friend(s) and wrote a few lines..this is how it goes...

கண்ணாடி ( I see the ME in U) ->

தத்தி தத்தி நடந்த போது
தந்தையின் முகத்தில் சிரிப்பைகக் கண்டேன்

முதன் முறையாய் "அம்மா" என்ற போது
தாயின் உள்ளத்தில் மகிழ்வைக் கண்டேன்

பள்ளிப்படிப்பின் தேர்ச்சியின் போது
என் ஆசிரியரின் மனதில் நிறைவைக் கண்டேன்

நட்பே , உன்னிடம் மட்டுமே
காலத்திற்கும் என்னைப் பார்க்கிறேன் !!

( yippee!! i made a lyric in that boring journey...
lingerings of the past are at times very usefull)

"A friend is someone with whom you dare to be yourself" (cool na?) ==>

saying this its me signing off. Do comment and Catch you ppl soon .

LDOL (last day of leisure)...

So, this is going to be my last day of leisure( i just feel that i mayn't get a long time to relax for at least a week from now). So i just planned to roam around. Suddenly i thought of one good place "moore market", as i had a couple of books in my wish-list. But due to some technical fault, i ended up going to my book bank and i had to give a BIG NO to moore....as usual, it was a flop..

(But what ever it be, i didn't forget two things i usually do at the central station..to treat me with a bar of my favourite chocolate and to grab a cup of Rathna's sweet corn..yummy!!)

So what's next?? for people who dunno, iam planning to attend an IPT from (In plant Training...well why can't it be an IPL??? ) tomorrow at some place which will take me an hour and a half to reach. And the worst part is , there are a helluva things over there which make me feel a little bit bored (+++ tired).

To start with

• "be punctual at 8:30 am and you can leave by 3:30 / 4:00pm" (damn, am not working for them and they are not paying me even a single buck).

• "No boarding/ lodging " (i actually expected something for Rs.500/- which i pay).

• "No certificates will be issued if your attendance is not proper" ( i planned to bunk a few days :( ).

• "Remember that you are just five students in a group of 70 students"(so my dreams are shattered.. i didn't expect such a good strength to make things worse and of course it means things are gonna be according to some preset time-tables and rules)
  

please don't expect some more hard-and-fast rules...I think this is enough for someone who is actually in the holidays after successfully( i think so) completing the semester exam.

So am i sounding like "a turkey before thanks giving day"??

Well, i do have some valid reasons to attend the IPT....

• I want my resume to look a little bit like an engineer's (you know that professional stuff)
• My sissy has got a couple of certificates more than me ... so right now iam trying to equalise her..(IPT is one good way)
  
• I wanna learn the routes (just praying that the buses should be empty-enuf)
• My cam is tired of shooting people, so why not some machinery and industrial stuff???

Hmm, that's all i can think of. I just have one good thing for sure, i have my friends around and i hope i can manage it.

That's it for now...the tetris game which i downloaded recently is awesome and is calling me ...
Catch you people with the IPT experiences soon...

Yippee!! My lyrics in RMKANICA'09

Hiya ppl!! you know what my exams for this semester are over (about two days before) and here is nandhu for her next blog.

Well, just a few days back, i got my copy of my college magazine(RMKANICA - that's what they call it). Ofcourse, that's not something special for me. But i just wrote my tamil lyrics for that magazine and it got published :)


So, here are those lines...




கல்லறையும் கோட்டையும் உன் கையில்
்(The above lyric has a speciality..until now this is the one for which i took longest time to complete.. "an hour" .. but i personally feel it's worthy.. :) )


கிறுக்கல்கள்
(so, what's special with the above one..it's just close to my heart..i dedicated this to my mom on her birthday :) )

Well.. now am moving out for my cuz's birthday (of course, with my RMKANICA ;) )
So, catch you people in my next blog...
hey, wait.. wait.. do post your comments...

nandhu (d knurdy) :)

Impress your loved ones...

I just thought for a while what to blog about next. Something sparked all of a sudden. Its not the lightning, not the flash light from my camera, nor it was an idea....
It was a plate full of "momos". Well, if you are hearing this name for the first time, then i give you the description. Momos are pure white, fluffy, tasty Tibetan dishes. There came my mom with a plate full of my favourite momos. I just wondered why not i write about them. If people who i like are found in my blog, then why not one of my favourites.

People try this easy recipe, you will love it for sure.

MOMOS-RECIPE

For the covering:

1 cup maida flour
1/4 tsp salt
2 tsp. vegetable oil
100 ml cold water

• Mix maida flour, salt, oil.
• Add water gradually and keep mixing with your fingers till you get a firm dough.
• Cover with a damp muslin cloth and keep aside for half an hour.

For the filling:
2 tsp. vegetable oil
1/4 tsp. cumin seeds
1 garlic clove, chopped finely
1 tsp. grated ginger or ginger juice
1 green chili, chopped finely
1 onion, chopped finely
1/2 cup finely chopped cabbage
1 carrot, chopped finely into tiny cubes
1 potato, chopped finely into tiny cubes
salt to taste
1/4 tsp. garam masala

• Heat the oil and add the cumin seeds.
• Add the garlic, ginger, green chili and onions and stir for a minute.
• Add the cabbage, carrots and potatoes and stir again.
• Add some water and cook covered for about 7-8 minutes until the vegetables become soft and the water is dried up.
• Add the salt and garam masala and stir well.
• Remove from heat and keep aside.

For the salad:
½ cup fine strips of cabbage
½ cup fine strips of carrots
¼ tsp. lemon juice
Salt to taste
• Mix together all of the above ingredients.

Making Momos:
• Take some dough, make a ball, and flatten it like rotis using rolling pin.
Cut small squares of about 3-inches from it.
• Put approximately 1½ tsp. filling in each square.
• Lift one corner of the square and join it to the opposite corner to form a triangle.
• Use water to glue the sides together.
• Join the three corners of the triangle and gently twist to the tip.
• If the side are not stuck together, reseal them with water.
• Similarly prepare all the momos.
• Steam the momos for about 15 minutes until they are swollen.
• Place the salad in the center of the serving dish and arrange the hot momos on the sides.
• Serve with tomato chutney as a dip

HOT, TASTY MOMOS ARE READY !!!

Well, for non-veggies, minced-chicken cooked with spices can be used as a substitute for veg fillings. (i have not tried it..check out and temme)
So, what are you waiting for?
Impress your loved ones with your momos.(Guys, no exception for you people..these tasty, impressive dumplings are easy to make ...)

The ONE in my life

We all miss someone in one part of our life or the other. It could be a best friend who shared a 50paise chocolate with you in primary school or a sweet gal who was near you, pampering you all d time but moved away after high school. It can also be your bro or a friendly guy who helped you to complete your experiments....Well these people made me write lyrics..


of course, for people reading this, it can be someone else from this list too...like your love..
But whoever it be, express your love. Love which is not expressed in right time often leaves just split-hearts, broken-dreams, and of course the trade-mark of any failure-salty tears :'(



oops just an emotional flow..anyways this is one of my favourite lyrics...
enzoy...

" Why you need to go away from me
when feel that you are the one for me
i have never felt this way before
until that day-when

you held my hands so tight,
walked me in the rain,
stood close near to me and
looked into my eyes (but now-why?)

Life was once quite delirious
until you brought colours to it
filled my path with flowers and blooms
and even drenched me in the cream of love

But now where is that path i loved to walk in?
i can't see it anymore and
iam in some alien land-just because
the time of wind has swept me
away from that lovely place

and now i have just the only one
and he is all i have in my life
and he is the so-called NOONE "

people reading this, just think once...of course post your comments...

சிதறல்கள்...

குருடன்:
ஐயா, என் விரலையும் மை வெய்யுங்க...

அதிகாரி:
யோவ்!!நீயெல்லாம் வந்து என்னத்த ஓட்டுபோட போற??

குருடன்:
என்னயா இப்படி சொல்றீங்க?

அதிகாரி:
பின்ன என்ன? உன்னகே கண்ணு ரெண்டும் தெரியாது..

குருடன்:
கோவிச்சுகாதீங்க! இங்க ஓட்டு போட வரவங்கெல்லாம்
கண்ண துறந்துகிட்டு தான் வராங்களா?
எல்லாருமே ஒரு வகைல என்ன மாதிரி தான்...

(சொல்லியபடியே, தன் கை தடியைத் தரையில் தட்டியபடி வீதிக்கு நகர்ந்த குருடன பாத்துகிட்டு இருந்தாரு அந்த அதிகாரி )

கட்சிக்காரன்:
யோவ்!! என்னையா வேலைய பாக்காம அந்த குருட்டுபயல
பாத்துட்டு இருக்க ??

மை-ய வை, என் தலைவனுக்கு ஓட்டு போடணும் ...

(கட்சி துண்டும், கறுப்புகண்ணாடியும் போட்டிருந்த
அவனைப்பார்த்து மெல்ல யோசித்தபடி )

அதிகாரி:
ஆமாம், (இன்னொரு) குருடனதான் பாத்துட்டு இர்ருகேன்
(சொல்லிய படியே, மையைத் தடவினார்)

"கண்ணிழந்தவனைப்பார்த்து குருடன் என கேலி செய்தான்;
கண்திறந்தபடியே தன் உரிமைகளை விட்டுக்
கொடுத்துக்கொண்டிருந்த மற்றொரு குருடன் "

தீ அணைப்புத் துறை தீ விபத்து அணைந்தவுடன் வருகின்றது
