Something unpredictable: April 2012
http://itssomethingunpredictable.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
April 20, 2012. Cliches that make me cringe. 2 Last but not the least: Overdone, inelegant and gives the feeling of the speaker or writer apologizing when there is no need. 3 Life is a roller coaster: What was the the equivalent of this phrase before roller coasters were invented? 4 You live and learn: Speaking entirely from personal experience - I beg to differ. I like Douglas Adams' take on it - "You live and learn. At any rate, you live.". 5 Tomorrow is another day: Well, unless you're The Doctor.

Something unpredictable: January 2013
http://itssomethingunpredictable.blogspot.com/2013_01_01_archive.html
January 15, 2013. What saddens me is that I should now feel that I had a privileged childhood instead of one that should be the right of every little girl. I shudder every time I see subtle hints of differential treatment meted out to the girls and boys and all the more because I see it in friends,. And yes, family. I boil with rage when a random aunty at Amsterdam airport looks enquiringly at my mom, who's proudly declaring that she has two daughters, and obligingly supplies, "and a son?

Something unpredictable: August 2011

August 21, 2011. Disconnected thoughts on a rainy saturday. I've become addicted to coffee brewed from freshly ground beans. Bye bye sleep. Currently topping my list of 'stuff I detest' - wall to wall carpet. I am suffering from monochromatic disorder - beige walls, beige blinds, beige carpet and beige doors are about to drive me to do serious harm to myself. Never, ever, ever rent a basement apartment. Ever. Die chain stores die! Where is a kirana store when you need one. Free delivery, I miss you.

August 01, 2013. An accent with an identity crisis. Accents can be distinctive; clear giveaways to which country, city, even region someone belongs to. That is, those accents that haven't forgotten who they are, tried to dress themselves up to cover up their origins, started unconsciously parroting local ones or been reduced to comical imitations of other accents. Uddenly my accent would start behaving as if it belonged to a bad actor auditioning for a role in a Canadian movie. So here I am, with an omni...

January 27, 2012. Displaced Desi. or When I Became a Statistic. It's been almost a year since I moved to Detroit from Pune and to my horror I've realized that I've become a faceless, nameless statistic with a certain set of characteristics that hold true for that particular set. So in order to evaluate how badly I have fallen I decided to run a checklist culled from my definition and see how I measure up. Has a Vonage connection to call family. One of the first things bought by them is an iPhone. Will ma...

May 02, 2014. This is life as usual in my home town - My dad messages me "the maali was offering to bring over a cow that was going for cheap. Mom refused.". While I hysterically laugh at the fact that a cow is being marketed around as casually as a piece of furniture, it seems to have been taken with remarkable equanimity by my dad.
