Happy April

April is a funny name for a girl. Isn't it? Yet, I remember a movie in which the protagonist was named April. Or was it a book?

April is the most positive month  this year. Or so, I have declared. But May will be even better. And so on and so forth. This is mainly because things have changed and the dice has been rolled.

I have finally finished a course at Coursera and I feel so proud about it. Two months- all lectures, all assignments. Happy ! :D I'm soon off to taking up another course which is so darn interesting. I have to mention Dr. Charles Severance from University of Michigan is awesome. I think I'm gonna join twitter and leave a message for him.

I will be off to Ladakh soon. Because nothing like the mountains right? Plus, its been a long pending dream.

I was reading an article about how you can change your own life and make it awesome. They say you should remove toxic thoughts, toxic relationships and toxic people from your life. I feel I simply need silence. Silence solves everything.

The song Aisha from the Sonam Kapoor movie named Aisha, is very nice. Also, it's my name. So, its very nice. Ayesha or Aisha means 'someone who always stays happy.' Also, it is originally the name of a lady who serves as a role model for many. So, I guess I have a lot to take inspiration from.
Someone once told me, my name is so beautiful. It has no hard sounds. Yeahhh, I guess they were right. :P

Okay, enough of narcissism.

I recently went shopping at Fabindia and picked up awesome stuff. Their collection is always good. So is W. They have awesome stuff too. I also went to this place called Myo Thai Spa. Their foot spa was awesome and  they are having this 1 spa-1 free scheme all throughout April. So basically you pay for one spa and get another one free. Take a friend and split the bill. Or take your sibling and pay for one. But definitely go for it! Its awesome. :D And yeah, you deserve it.

Since we are in such a good mood let me ask you something. Aren't romantic songs so awesome? Who doesn't enjoy them once in a while? Bringing out the true emotion of living beings - love. Transporting you in a new world while you listen to them. That feeling :)

Let me name a few songs I particularly like- Pehli nazar mein( Race),  Tum se hi ( Jab We Met) and Hoshwalon ko Khabar kya( Sarfarosh). I find all of these songs so beautiful and they have a mesmerizing quality to them.

I was busy browsing pages on the internet when  the legendary Jagjit Singh sang in the background,

" Unse nazrein kya mili, roshan fizaaein ho gayi,
  Aaj jaana pyaar ki, jaadugari kya cheez hain"

Doesn't your heart light up when he sings that? Or you burst into a private smile? Tell me how many of you haven't felt like that even once in your life for anyone? Even for a moment? I would like you to share your experiences or thoughts on this to me. Yes, for the first time on my blog I'm calling for an interaction.(:P)  Do you agree? Let me know. For any soul out there who hasn't felt like this ever, " dude you haven't lived ok?"

Anyway, I personally think this song is legendary. Though, to each his own.


                                                                        **********

So, its Throwback Thursday today. Thank God it's Friday Tomorrow. And then weekend rolls in, so we're all happy. Yay.

 Enough for the rambles.

Thy Majesty - The Mountains

Recently, I struck an important point off my bucket list. I visited the mystical lands of Leh-Ladakh which encompasses the north-most part of India. Off late this place has become a hot tourist destination. So much, that probably it is very fashionable to visit Ladakh these days. Or maybe, not. I would like to share my experience with everyone so that they know what to expect and most importantly, what not to expect out of this place. We had an 8 day trip to Leh. We met many people on our way, forged new friendships and enjoyed our time there.We visited Leh in the end of May which is probably the beginning of summer( in other words: start of the peak season) in that place. Having said this, the weather was not very warm over there. Temperatures stayed low and you required your thermals, jackets et all. The sun rays beat down on us during the day. The open skies and elevated heights did not help much either. We witnessed a contrasting play of nature at work as the cold ...

Moonlight Dance..

The two kids floated in the air. Spinning around the moon. Tiny figures bobbing, to a playful tune. She said she'd make a dress, from the fine threads of the moonlight. All he wanted to do, was swing on it. In circles, they bickered. Holding their stance. And spent all night, in a moonlight dance. -Merci

Sunsets

What do you prefer? Sunsets or Sunrise? I prefer sunrises. Though I can never wake up on time to see them. Yet, I prefer sunrises. You know what's the problem with sunsets? They can be enjoyed only when the sun is very far far away from you . Okay, you may laugh at that line now. The sun is many light years away from us anyway, right? But what I mean here is the horizon is far away from you. For example if you sat by the sea and watched the sun set, you could only enjoy it when it starts to dip and before that all you did was get burnt by the rays relentlessly falling on your face. But when you're sitting on a hill the horizon seems further away and the sunset can be enjoyed more. Or maybe on a fort. Which reminds me how I want to go to Udaipur and watch a sunset from atop a palace. This also brings me to a fact that ever since my last trip I haven't had a craving or need to travel anywhere else. It was more or less like Nirvana. I have recently started on a new vent...
