I've always loved my family. Find them the coolest! Of course we fight quite a bit but then we laugh together even more!! Nowadays I have become so bold/open about so many things even with my dad around(was always more comfortable with mommy dearest)!
I have the funnest time at the dinner table, we talk abt everything and anything under the sun!
I have even started telling them about which guy is cute, who is hitting on me, who i have a crush on and so on. Gosh we even discuss sex!!
I guess all these are signs of me growing up and my parents being more my friends than my parents! Thanks mom and dad! Hugs! :-)
They are not gonna read this but still.....

Walking into things....
Ever since I was a child, I have always overlooked nah...never looked where I was walking or running! As a result I have fallen down innumerable number of times, bruising my knee, legs, feet, elbows(cos I used them to break my fall) and yeah well that's it!
During my post childhood days i.e. after 7th std I used keep walking into things like a cot or sofa or chairs, desks and what not. Of course my poor little toes bore the brunt of my stupidity and inability to see things as i walk!
So I decided to follow my mom's advice of "kaalallu kannu irbeku". I decided to look before I walked anywhere, with the result that my upper portion of my body was now being neglected. Here are a few instances of how they were neglected....
1) One day I was walking in my office, people had drawn very beautiful rangolis cos of some Onam or something, So I thot I'll avoid stamping them and walked straight into a switchboard instead!! The pain I felt in my shoulder was unbearable!! I had to grin and bear it!
2) I was in a lift, a transparent one at that(this again in office). I was just looking at how uglyly(if there is such a word) my feet were tanned. For this I had to bend a little bit, not noticing the glass case of the lift which was right there in front of me!! So I did bend and ended with a huge bump on my head!
I now have a major problem at hand, I seriously lack leg n eye coordination! I need some help!

Sign language
I was sitting in the doctor's shop and as usual I was observing people and their actions(this being my fav timepass and reason why i never get bored when I am alone in a public place!) But this time I saw something very different, I have never come across a deaf n dumb family, well the family sitting in front of me was.
To say that I was fascinated by the sign language they used to communicate is an understatement!! I mean they made it look so easy! I picked up a few signs myself!! :) ( I dunno why I am so proud of this!!)
But this then got me thinking as to how eeeeasy it is for the normal people to communicate with each other, something we take for granted! Well I am glad i can scream my head off whenever i want!
To end this post on a lighter note, I remember how one of my classmate's in NCJ during PUC had caused peels of laughter to erupt when asked what was the importance of communication and language by the lecturer.
He said something like this and I quote "Well if there is a hot chick walking on the street and a friend n I are stranded at opposite ends of the street, instead of waving to my friend frantically and getting all excited, I can just casually walk across the street and just say check out the chick dude!" Well the lecturer was obviously stunned into silence! :) I dont think she ever asked that question again! :)
