Little angel is hovering in the skies and refuses to land her feet to reality.

Don't wait my love
Lead our path and twine with mine
We shall bear each others burdens
And stroll down the shores of beaches
And make merry
And make love our life

We were shopping in Ikea yesterday. I love Ikea and I hate it as well. The home decors and appliances they have over there are simply cool and sometimes even out of the world. It makes me fantasize what it would like to build a home and just bring in some Ikea designers and make them do my interiors. Its so hard to stick and love one furniture set when you get swooned by another. Even the prizes are reasonable for at least most of the items on sale.

My favourite place is where they showcase all the rooms they managed to set up within a particular space area. It looks small, compact and functional. Enough for one person to more than survive. Love that!

But yesterday most surprisingly I found a bedroom set. I didn't want to own it or want it badly because I managed to make a very similar back home in my bedroom. Man was I delighted. Mum kept being indecisive whether it looked good there or not but when she saw this she was satisfied (internally that is). And I was glad that I nailed an Ikea model! Yay!

I mean I could even have my picture posted there or at least have my name written down there saying that model is 'nailable' at home by an amateur.

 Ikea you make models that make people want to oogle and drool and spend all their annual incomes even.

 Feeling super happy and satisfied!

  • Draping a saree

  •  Draping a saree
Hmm... wearing a saree seems to be have more importance. Well duh! Thats the worst thing any girl can be endured to wear. Its nice to helped to wear it. To try on ones own in the beginning its horrible! I attempted to do so last Friday. I even forgot the basics and I was wondering how to pleat. I hate pleating and my fingers lack dexterity with them. I came out the room after almost 1 hour and I managed to wear it because my mum frustrated helped me with it.

But I did manage to be buried in one and I couldn't take it any further. I removed it to wear much better and easy clothes that don't need any sort of assistance from my mother or anyone!

 Wishing myself luck and strong commitment to the tasks at hand.

 All the best!

SPIRIT OF THE UNION


 UAE is celebrating its 40th National Day and gee should you see the roads of Dubai! Totally wrapped in the Flag. Never have I seen a country (never been to many by the way) celebrating its National Day with so much enthusiasm. Its actually infectious.
Every shop or malls we go to they have a huge flag on display and many more to sell. They have bracelets color coded with red, green, white and black; wigs with the same; flags huge sized and tiny and stoles.
Also every vehicle has a tiny flag on it so that flags away to glory when on Sheikh Zayed Road. I have honestly not seen flags the size of 10 stories long! Even common homes! They must have invested alot for meters of these flags, some even going to the extent of having neon lighting stating UAE in front of their homes. Every billboard, every government vehicle, every school, every UAE TV channels all have the symbol of the flag or the logo of the SPIRIT OF THE UNION.

  If all this seems normal, you should see what Emirates has done one step further. They have set up a huge box in an undisclosed location and they will be offering 40 prizes for only 40 people. It remained a secret. Now its open and the surprise has been revealed.

They produced 40 BMW's with a limited edition that features the UAE emblem on the headrest. Doesnt sound fascinating? Well, any patriotic freak would die for this.  The information on the celebrations is to much to tell. It looks very festive and people seem to be crazy happy because today is a National Holiday for Muharram since it fell on Friday last week and Saturday is also a holiday as National Day is tomorrow. Lets see how Dubai rocks further today and tomorrow.
