Ohlife

Ohlife after all these mad scribblings are about good bad and searches! "Oh life" - Admire and enjoy 'life' writing a diary. It is good that I have stumpled upon this site on the internet. From April 2011 onwards I have been writing a diary through 'e mail' It is lovely to write a diary entry through e mail. I started writing diary at 'oh life' using my hotmail e mail id. I'm now continuing my e mail diary through my yahoo e mail. In between I switched to other e mail ids to including face book messages. Writing a diary through e mail is comparitively easy. However the bad I felt was : At the end of a tired day, I lay down on my bed and by the time I start composing 'ohlife,' e mail through my mobile device, duely sigining in and reading my mail sent by 'oh life' about the same day, a week ago, a month ago, a year ago - I forget all the events of the day. I may write one or two sentences. It is okay  - the one

Cinderella

This week my writing mission is to write Cinderalla story. The prompt says that the Cinderalla story  which has an happy ending should be tried to end with a sad ending. The popular Cinderalla story I've heard through my mother , read as a lesson in my school and have seen a movie too. I remember 'pumpkin' turning into chariot and mice turning into horses and Cinderalla getting nice dress and dancing with the prince. At the stroke of midnight she runs from the ballet hall leaving one of her glass slippers. Cineralla story is such that supression is turning to triumph. When    I referred to wikipedia to read the story once again   I was overwhelmed to see so many versions of the story.  In fact the wikipedia says that the meaning of the name Cinderella  is suppression turning to triumph. The version I read in my lesson stated that because Cinderalla was in the kitchen among the cinders she was called so. In one of the versions of Cinderalla stories the wikipedia mentions thi

This week-end I've to do some 'words' exercise. The writing prompt, tells me to see the dictionary - pick up 10 words - don't worry much  about the meanings and write something. 10 words is not the quantity of 'tea' for me. Shall do the exercise with five words. Small Tea. Not High Tea! Some days ago I was reading a novel "LOVE ALL" Jotted down some words from that book.  My plan right now, is to write something using the five words. More words is okay. Looked the meaning of these words in Bee- English Dictionary and have stored the words in a deck called: "LOVE ALL" Now making a write up with a heading: Reverie is fine  Morose  is lousy. Reverie  state of mind on its own accord is a wonderful thing. Driving, the reverie works fine. It is more than a cinema, more than a dream, more than reading a novel. Was thinking about what can I write using the words found in the novel "LOVE ALL" Was wondering what is  beige  color. It triggered

This week writting exercise begins at pearl tree in the form of a note.  I did go to my old album, counted picture No. 14.  The album maitained by my father was taken by me one fine day and I tried to stick some pictures in that.  My father used 'corner paper clips' to insert the pictures.  The corner clips had come off when I took the album to maintain. So, I stuck my pictures to the album without corner clips. This 14th picture is from the year 1997 when my younger sister studied VII std at Maruthi Vidyalaya Wilson gardens Bengaluru. I have put a round on her image using basic paint tool. As I do this I remember me helping my mother to bring my sister from Govindamal School at Ulsoor to Maruthi Vidyalaya at Wilson gardens. Now for this week's tweet: @ keyasmamma "Mitti ka tan, Masti ka mann, shanbhar jeevan, mera parichay." ah those lines are wonderful. — (^‿^)cgbalu♫(@cgBalu) January 10, 2012 These words from one of the tweeps I follow should be the parichay
