Unequal Affections
A famous couplet by W.H. Auden goes, “If equal affections cannot be, let the more loving be me.”
Christmas Gift
It’s been an eventful Christmas weekend. Watching your new significant other with other people is an interesting experience.
I Style!: Rock Chic
It’s been awhile since an I Style! post came up. Have Mumbaikers stopped being adventurous in their apparel? I think it’s got more to do with the fact that I am not on the road every single day, struggling through a workaholic life and thus extra sensitive to a splash…
Ideart: Mere Pass WOGMA Hain!
Another Ideart opportunity and my marketing mind tells me this should be called co-branding. 🙂 At the Mood Indigo-BlogCamp Dec 2010 that happened over the weekend, I had a chance to showcase one of my works. I first met Meetu at a common friend’s party. A few months later, we…

The Female Dilemma: Managing Male Interest
“Why do we trade in the attention of a hundred men for the indifference of one?”
Finally On Facebook
Recently, a friend updated his relationship status on Facebook to the now-familiar status of ‘X is now in a relationship’ preceded by the ubiquitous red heart. He received a barrage of comments specially alluding to the fact that he has been in said relationship for years now. Last year I…
Thinking About It
Among other things, I’ve been discovering the joys of vanity since I quit my job and have had a lot more time to myself. It’s quite wonderful, caring for oneself and looking good-feeling good. Mr.Everyday, on the other hand, is determined to win the title for ‘Most Likely to Be…
