Stopping by Woods on a Sonwy Evening

Whose woods these are I think I know.   
His house is in the village though;   
He will not see me stopping here   
To watch his woods fill up with snow.   

My little horse must think it queer   
To stop without a farmhouse near   
Between the woods and frozen lake   
The darkest evening of the year.   

He gives his harness bells a shake   
To ask if there is some mistake.   
The only other sound’s the sweep   
Of easy wind and downy flake.   

The woods are lovely, dark and deep,   
But I have promises to keep,   
And miles to go before I sleep,   
And miles to go before I sleep.

Feminism 2.0

Yesterday, I was having a conversation with my old friend and he asked me if I was still blogging. And I sighed immediately. The worst feeling is not giving time to writing. There are so many things to be told but I just feel too lazy. But now let me make a resolution of at least trying to bring up to you one topic per month. I don’t promise though. So, why this topic? A cliched term? I am not the one to give opinion here. The word feminism has very broad meaning. But I always look up to it and construe the same with my own experiences. I am quite amused by the interpretation of being a feminist and rolling of eyes that is freely accompanied by this topic. The word feminist is interpreted as bitch in a black suit, men-hater and who always consider herself superior, sometimes “divorced” and also annoyed at the entire world. Absolute myths surrounding the word. How many of you come across women starting the topic with “I am not a feminist but...”? I mean why you need to justify? ...

Short Tale: #1 when you have that “baby” face

No, I am not talking about people looking younger than their age; but people who actually look 6-7 years younger than their age. And now I know that is the case with me. I have like encountered more than 50 cases of now where the world reminds me I don’t actually look a grown up girl sorry rather an “adult”. Whenever I go to stationery shop the shopkeeper always asks me that whether I am in 10 th and giving my boards? This means I look 8 years younger. And then again I need to explain him that no I just love shopping this stuff. I have never been taken seriously in shops and malls as they think I am school going kid. I am in my last year of CA internship; in my workplace also all of the seniors exclaim I would look the youngest CA soon. So last week we had a trip to Hyderabad for some audit related work. We were returning to Ahmedabad in flight and the only seats which were available were those near the emergency exits. We adjusted ourselves there. The air-hostesses came to ...

Good Morning Ma’am!

“A week in Mumbai”; with this shock I confronted myself. 3 rd outstation in 3 rd year of Internship. And yes I was the senior of two of us going for the office trip. A part of me was excited and a part of me tensed. And there was responsibility on me. The 1 st one probably to catch train on time, followed by reaching the right destination. Finding a lesser known destination is toughest in Mumbai. The time came. My train was scheduled at 10. Things were going on right! And I arrived on time despite the not-at-all expected rains in the month of May in Ahmedabad. But to my relief because of the rains the weather turned so good. And the journey started. Upper berth and book to provide me comfort, with cell phone; enough for whole night. Only a few more hours until I was there. The night passed by with hardly 3 hours of sleep and the station arrived. I was half dead by then with 8 hours of journey. Finding transportation is not a difficult task in Mumbai even at wee hours. The city...
