This is a story that reiterates a fact that we often forget: persistence and passion certainly pays. I’ve known Richard for over 10 years now; we went to university together. He was a big-talker, and not a good singer (sorry Rich, but this line is key to the story). I remember listening to him sing [...]

Wisdom teeth out!

After at least 5 years of pain (and procrastination), today I finally got two wisdom teeth taken out. Knowing that I was going to do it this week, made my week go quite bad. The thought of it gave me nausea and I didn’t have much of an appetite.The internet lead me to read many [...]

I really can’t believe it’s 2010 already. The year 2000 is still so fresh in my mind (Y2K bla bla), that it’s hard to fathom it was TEN YEARS ago. Sheesh. I was 20 then. I am almost 30 (holy f***) now. Where did all those years go!? Time flies so fast it’s scary. I’ve [...]

9 flights, 6 buses, and numerous taxi’s later, I am back in Dubai trying to absorb that over the last 3 weeks I was in 4 different countries. Goa with 30 family members was a blast that left me emotionally fulfilled and fat. Poker, Balchao prawns, Bollywood dancing, beach, pool and Bloody Mary’s were most [...]

After 8 months of working pretty hard, I’m now officially on holiday! It seems like ages since I had any time off and am thrilled to have 3 weeks of it. I have a plane to catch in an hour; off to Goa for a family reunion. About 35 Malpani’s are getting together in Baga. [...]
Immortal MJ

The impact of MJ’s sudden death to me is similar to that of Princess Diana in 1997. Heartwrenching and unbelievable. I loved MJ as a child and grew up with his music. My room was full of his posters. My books had MJ bookmarks. I had all his albums on tape and then on CD. [...]
