Here are a few questions I spotted while going through Leia's blog and thought of a post here with my answers to the questions she asked-

1. What's your favorite vegetable, and how do you cook/season/eat it?

-> My favorite veggie is Carrot and I love eating it raw and as Gajar ka halwa (carrot pudding).

2. What's your favorite thing about where you live? 

-> I live in Kolkata and my favorite thing about the place is you never get the time to be     bored!!! There is always something or the other happening here.

3. If were to donate to a charity, what kind of charity would it be? 

-> I would love to donate (when I get a job) to an orphanage or to an old age home.

4. Do you play an instrument? If yes, which one, and if no, which one would you like to play?

-> No I can't,how I wish I could . *sigh* Would love to play the Guitar and the Piano.

5. What book are you reading right now?

-> Post Colonial Studies by Leela Gandhi. No raised eyebrows please,I have an exam coming next month and am supposed to be studying :P (If there were no exams,I would have been reading Salman Rushdie's Midnight's Children)

6. What's your favorite aspect of blogging (writing your own or reading other blogs?)

-> Reading other blogs (am addicted to reading blogs,so much so that I forget writing my posts !!)




Have a great Sunday !! :D

Click Clack

Hullo everyone !!

Its been ages since I wrote my last post...Sorry was busy studying for exams (its kind of a series,next one coming again in January  so loads of  studies still pending :( )
Anyways will share a few pics with you that I clicked sometime back-

                                                     Thats bestie Drisha,pic taken at college

Clearly i didn't click this one (thanks Drisha for this one),taken at a Jain Temple,Kolkata

This is one of my favorite pics,the red from my tunic and the green all around make a wonderful color riot.

Did you notice the li'l plant just behind me?? It looks like I've put on some fancy head gear :D

Visited the zoo sometime back with my li'l niece. Reminded me of the days when I went there years back as a toddler. This is the best pic of the lot.

P.S.-all the pics were taken from the cam in my phone,so please bear with the not-so-good quality of the pics.

We match yet AGAIN!!!! and a li'l DIY

Another match post?? Yeah another one :P
This time not just two,this time its threesome!!
Debanjana, Jayeeta (college mates) and I wore the same tunic to class some days back.
With the Military green color,we looked like Army soldiers all ready to march...hehe.

No more words, straight to the pics,take a look :)

If you take a closer look,you can make out that Debanjana's (the one in the middle) is a li'l different from mine and Jayeeta's but it looks the same from a distance.

And I got inspired by Amie's Lace bow hair clip and tried out making one with ribbons(am wearing it in the pic above,but its not really visible there!!). Here is a closer look-

So what is your opinion of my li'l DIY experiment?? You can also make out your's. Here is the tutorial.
With exams knocking at the door,am going offline for around 2 months,catch you all after am done with the exam thing.
Bubbye till then
Love ya all

We Match Again!!

Yeah am back with my we mach series...this time with my lovely friend Debopriya :)
We both went out shopping some time back and ended up buying the same cloth pieces,I turned it into a Kurta and she turned hers into a a-line dress..and wore it together the same day...
I paired mine with my multi color wooden earrings(take a closer look here) and wooden bangles,she wore a multi color neck piece and multi color strapped flats  to match hers(too multi colored?? Yeah we both are mad about colors :D). Here is how we looked together-

                                      I wasn't ready for the click (was saying something to the photographer :P)


Take a closer look (at a better pic :D)

It was again a very funny day for the both of us,those stares and giggles :D
Did this ever happen to you?? You and your mate both wearing the same clothes?? Do tell me if you did.

Love
