Alive and kicking: Drive me crazy
http://anujaanuja.blogspot.com/2008/05/apparently-it-is-time-for-me-to-learn.html
There was an error in this gadget. Tuesday, May 13, 2008. Apparently, it is time for me to learn driving. My husband has decided I must be empowered, which sweet though it may be, it is certainly not welcome. After an entire summer vacation of trials and errors, we all heaved a sigh of relief when I professed to be a hippy in favour of resource saving and public transport, and gave up the wheel on moral grounds. It is one of those few decisions I do not regret. Central Delhi's broad roads and drooping tr...

http://anujaanuja.blogspot.com/2006/03/for-blank-noise-in-delhi-where-i-grew.html
There was an error in this gadget. Tuesday, March 07, 2006. In Delhi where I grew up, things are different. You can evade taxes. You can cheat death through reincarnation. But roadside romeos, well, they're inevitable. I remember a time, some ten years ago, when as a teenager I came home weeping hard. My mom went pale on seeing me so, and wanted to know what had happened. Between sobs, I admitted that my wallet had been stolen in a packed bus - along with a princely two thousand bucks. And that's why I l...

http://anujaanuja.blogspot.com/2007/08/some-men-think-women-shop-seven-days.html
There was an error in this gadget. Sunday, August 12, 2007. Some men think women shop seven days a week, Ha! Shows how little they know! I am a woman and I shop only six days a week (excluding weekends). Let me calculate - yesterday I bought a bag, day before I bought another bag, day before that I tried a dress that made me look paunchy - which (for a change) I realized before. If someone were to ask me why women shop so much more than men, I'd point them to research. I'd point them to the fact. I total...

Alive and kicking: October 2009
http://anujaanuja.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
There was an error in this gadget. Monday, October 05, 2009. I can't believe I'm saying this, but "What's your Rashee. Is not the worst movie I've ever seen. It certainly comes close, given that its 14 songs stretch across a length of film that would have been less painful if I had strangled myself with it and positively delightful if I had strangled Harman Baweja with it. That insipid man needs a personality, a haircut, some lip synching lessons and most importantly, a new profession. After which our he...

Political Rampage: Crime
http://politicalrampage.blogspot.com/2010/06/crime.html
Tuesday, June 8, 2010. By and large, I don't think much of Singapore papers and the tepid talk that passes for news in their pages. But this weekend they had me blurry-eyed with a headline they carried. It was the first thing I read that morning. Five sets of clothes. His curry pot. A rice cooker. An album of family photos. That was all he owned and they were put in a plastic bag and sent to Chennai with his body. And my 50 SPF for all that sun I'll face! Who needs Shakespeare to read tragedy? Journalist...

Political Rampage: Have you sent the chaddis yet??
http://politicalrampage.blogspot.com/2009/02/have-you-sent-chaddis-yet.html
Monday, February 9, 2009. Have you sent the chaddis yet? Nisha, Divya and Nithin are spearheading a fantastic campaign, Munnabhai style, to get the Ram Sena. To join the Valentine Day celebrations. Not that the Ram Sena isn't planning to join the V Day celebrations - they have their heads and hands full of violent ideas for Feb 14, all targeted to stop us degenerate, unenlightened Indians, especially women, from imbibing foreign culture, beer, alcohol, roses, etc. Join the Pink Chaddi Campaign.

Political Rampage: June 2009
http://politicalrampage.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Sunday, June 7, 2009. Is not the sort of movie I see. But thanks to the barrage of trailers that any Bachchan starrer will unleash on the public, I know its story, and I know some of its dialogues. In one scene, the ungrateful son having usurped the house, the savings, as well as years of loved upbringing from his father, nonchalantly brushes him away saying: Come on Dad, let's face it! Whatever I am today is what I have made myself. What have you got to do with it? From other students. No coaching c...

So while I am happy my musical prowess reputation remains intact, I suspect the reputation is not worth intact-keeping. Likely) Love is blind, not deaf. Very Likely) He doesn't love me.

Political Rampage: May 2009
http://politicalrampage.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html
Tuesday, May 19, 2009. A divorce from reality. If there's one thing that this election has proven beyond doubt, it is that the mass media has no idea what it is talking about. Its polls are useless, its exit polls worthless, and it is more in touch with Salman Khan's gym regime than the opinion of the masses. It all started with an election coverage where media only grudgingly conceded that they didn't know who would win [ picked up by international media for what it was worth. But it isn't funny. Be...
