Unke Hastakshar - Amrita Pritam

Sat down with a hindi novel for the first time ever. Reading in hindi is altogether a different and great experience. English, all said and done is the langauge I am most comfortable with. Coz I think in english. I emote in english best. Even my mother tongue Tamil does'nt put me in that comfort level. I lapse into English talking in any other language. So reading in hindi was a great experience. I was forced to read slowly to appreciate the language. I was more let down by the book itself and its filmy crappy storyline. Was like reading the script of one of Ekta Kapoors soaps. Once i got comfortable.. (a good 30 pges later) I was reading as I would read in english. And then I just wished I was reading a better book.

Halloween

I want to carve pumpkins and light candles in them. I want to make pumpkin pie. I also want to wear a costume and go to a a costume party. Unfortunately I seem to be the only one in my circle of friends who has such inclinations. The spirit has left everyone else untouched. How disappointing !!!!
