When you have two intelligent hard working and very importantly workaholic persons sharing a same room in a hostel,will it be possible to clean their room daily,obviously no….
I guess I can stop my overacting,I am definitely not a workaholic or a techie but my roomy is definitely a workaholic and one very important thing about her(ofcourse good thing only, She never dumps anything in our room…she always keeps her shelf neat…..
Ummmm when you have a roomy who always have the habit of keeping her shelf tidy,with no other go I am forced be like that(I mean to keep everything clean)…..But naah I don’t follow that I dump everything on my shelf(Now now my amma is not here to bellow and appa is no here to keep my things back in place( miss u too) or I don’t have my brother here to whom I shout at when I misplace something)…
So now you should have understood how clean I keep my shelf….
Today I felt of cleaning my shelf just because my conscience was pricking….Obeyed my mind and opened my shelf….I have heard about amudhasurabhi but for the first time I witnessed in my shelf….Things started to come out one by one endlessly….I was puffed and panted and was gasping for breath(because of the dust,once in a blue moon I clean you see, so yidellam sahajam dhane)…..
First I found umpteen hair clips(I have the habit of collecting good poems,nice articles,the crossword puzzles of hindu and million other things,I was astonished,did I have the habit of collecting hair clips????naah) then came the next section handbag…..whoaaaa my cousin came from Bombay and she bought me a handbag,I said ahaaaaaaa,My aunt came from US and bought me a handbag,I said uoooooooooo, my mother went to purchase and she got me a handbag now my reaction is ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh………………I have nearly ummm 10 bags ,I use only one (I have the habit of using only one thing which I like,rest I ignore)…Now all the other 9 rest on my shelf….I openly declare plz my lovely relatives if u want to get something for me plz don’t get hand bags,instead get me a platinum chain ummm if it is not possible get a diamond ring arrey if that is also not possible get me a gold biscuit yar…(Now I know you are appreciating me for a humble and a very normal gift)….
I almost lost my strength,stamina or whatever….Then came the book section novels(I will never ever throw and curse those lovely books,then quantitative aptitude by agarwal again quantitative aptitude this time with different author….Oracle,Java and cobol book…Why on earth I have all those books that are not relevant /no way being used my me……
I am gonna give all those collections(ya techie books to my friends)
I was almost tired so I decide to continue my Mission cleaning part 2 sometimes next week…
Moral:
1.Please don’t dump anything on the shelf..
2.This is applicable only for me(Don’t study,don’t take printouts,don’t have techie books(Gowri(my another name) is the most suitable person to follow the moral)….

long hair
Looks and appearances are deceptive….I totally agree with it…..
But being a gal fortunately/unfortunately having a long hair is/was the most deserving quality(Is it??!!!)…..
Me and long hair never coincide with each other….
Long long ago I had a lengthy hair(courtesy:My amma told me umpteen times)…..When I came to my 10th std I did cut 3/4 th of my hair and
I had a reasonable length of hair…..(Now you have to imagine how hard I studied for 10th)….
From there till now it didn’t stop , I mean whoever has to try a new hair style or whoever has to practice their trimming (hair trimming) skills
They just call Gowri and I rush to their spot….Being so chweet(why doubt, itz me)…I offer my hair to them..Amma,cousins,aunty,Pakathuvu vitu aunty,yedutha vitu aunty everyone tried their hand…
At this time you have to appreciate my patience…After so many trimming incidents I felt itz always better to have a hair that falls exactly on my shoulders,so that I can always reach the office exactly on time(we are workaholic u know??!!!).If u have along hair,you have to comb(cha what a brain I have) it,clear the entangled hair, apply oil,wash thrice or four times a week…lotta works and me being extremely lazy (the most sluggish creature and procrastination is my friend)felt a short hair will suffice my need….
Till recently I had a good length of hair….I always stare at gals who have long hairs,i am really astonished by the way they take care to maintain their hair…For quite somedays I was
Staring at a gal and to reciprocate it she stared at me…Fortunately she became my friend because of all the staring concepts….She told itz really hard to maintain such a lengthy hair…I felt so delighted and felt like jumping from my seat ,flying in the air to have a cute(really???!!) and shorty hair….(ahem ahem)
Last week I asked my amma to trim my hair….My amma practices all the varieties I mean the hairdo with my hair…She said that side was not even cut and this side was not even cut…
Finally now I am with a very very short hair,should I call it as a Pony tail???Horse pony will kill me…Now my hair is very much above my shoulders….It takes jus 2 minus naah a minute to comb my hair…But my father bellowed at me “Kalyanam ara ponnu yipdi pannalama” as if I committed a murder…..whatz wrong in having a short hair…It was hard for me to console my appa….
May be after somedays my so called relatives may try some new styles and may be I will get a Tom boyish hair style who knows…
No no no now I am not ready to offer my head…My appa will kill me…I have a little pony and atleast I have to protect it…Sigh!!!!
I guess I can have a lengthy hair only on my dream……But being a lazy,sluggish sloathe I feel this short hair will be the best for me(Yidi sollidan manasa thethikanum)…….

My weird habits
I am becoming insane...That is not new to me i mean sometimes i am sane and many times i am insane...But nowadays i possess lotta insane qualities
that portrays me as a complete insane person..Phew...Below are some of my weird habits that make others to laught at me...
1.It happens most of the time.I put my mobile on charge...After sometime i forget about my mobile and find it is missing....Then i shout at my brother to help me in searching my mobile...Will make my house topsy turvy....Then my mother comes to the rescue operation and points the mobile....My mother very well know that i always place the mobile on charge and she correctly spots it...My brother always give me a look meaning "You insane dumbo creature ,you are not able to remember the place where you kept the mobile,how come you are handling your work"....Damages are common na chalo....
2.If i carry multiple things in my hand i am sure i would definitely miss something...Mostly i carry my handbag,hand kerchief and some rupees to get something...Most of the time i miss my kerchief poor me,I have missed a zillion…..sometimes i miss my money too and if kind hearted people see this they call me and give it else i loose it sheesh....How absent minded i am...
3.I hate boring and lengthy lectures i always prefer a crispy one...But i am damn good at giving a gesture that means "I am a good listener" and i also have this weird habit of shaking my heads to mean i got your point boss...Sometimes back me and my friend attened a lecture...Suddently i turned towards my friend to see her dozed eyes,immediately i pinched her slightly..(yeah yeah fearing that she may bellow if I pinch heavily and we would have become the centre of attraction and thinking about the aftermath ,i did pinch her slightly)..After that she pretended to listen...I as usual started to shake my head,actually i started to dream...Yeah i have this weird habit of entering into dream when someone gives lectures..After the session my friend asked me to explain the crunch of it..I said i was on dream and i didnt listen...She said you seemed to be attentive by shaking your heads....I burst into laughing....People beware next time if u see someone Who shake their head,dont feel they may be a good listener...Some may fall under my category too
I dont know how i will come out from my weird habits....

A comparative analysis
After reading the title plz dont assume that i am going to compare the economic crisis in US and India,Who is the best Roger or Rafa,Whish story
captivated us "The pursuit of happiness" or "Last lecture".I dont have the hi-fi brain to analyze and submit a report on the above topics,but if you ask me
to compare hostel and home i can do it very well...
I had never been in hostel till my college...After joining into work with no other option i opted to stay in hostel...I always make a
comparative analysis between my home and hostel...So Here i would like to exclusively present my so called analysis report...
A typical day at home always begins with devotional songs...Thanks to Patti,appa and amma who not only indulge themselves with the spirituality
but also make others to get out of their bed,yeah how can you sleep when the volume of the TV dominates the entire house,but it never bothers my sleep,its a
lullaby...A voice from somewhere "Hey getup,itz 6.30am"...6.30AM???!!!!!my god it's actually very early to get up na ...After lotta arguments with my
dad(that someone's voice was my dad's) i will get additional 5 minutes(Yeah precious 5 minutes)...Oops with no other option i will get out from my bed...If you ask me "what accordng to you is bliss or solace" definitely i would say my mother's filter coffee,chance se yilla...Filter coffee and Hindu paper is no par to anything in this world,and i definitely enjoy this...While at home i never miss anything
tiffin,brunch,lunch,dinner,snack...The only thing which i do perfectly is i keep on munch something...Hot and spicy Idli,sambar my god i am drooling over it
would be served,on the other hand in hostel after zillion times of pressing the snooze button without any other option i get out from my bed and the first
thing that splashes my mind when i get out is "Run and rush,see whether the bathroom is free to take a bath".....Coffee actually its not coffee it is mixture
of 80% water,10%milk and 10% decoction,i never dare to drink it...I skip my breakfast because i dont have the guts to eat the elastic,stone like hardened
idli....When at home if i skip the breakfast my mother will plead me to eat ..phew i miss it.
I really miss my home,my parents my house,my naughty things,on the other hand hostel has taught me a lot.It taught me how to adjust
with others...Those gala hours with friends always stay green in my mind...Finally Hostel life brings some sort of pleasure and home bring another sort of
pleasure...

Height of mis-communication
I am a kind of girl who has problem with communication...I assure i am not dumb,i dont have trouble with my voice,I can manage to speak English...Then what is the problem with me????arrey when i speak to others people dont understand i mean they dont get my point..Its quite casual for a confusing girl to confuse others.
Fine....Recently i had this phone conversation which clearly portrays the height of miscommunication...This happened some few days back
I was busy with my work(Believe me yar)...
Phone rang i didnt hear it,come on yar i was busy with my work na(ahem ahem)...my friend who sat near me took the phone...Let me name this friend as X.Some Y called and enquired about me.This x friend transfered the call to me.This call was from my another friend Y.
Me:Hi------
Y:Hi Poorani...How are you doing???
Me:Great...
Y:Who took the phone yar?
Me:Its X my friend..I was bit busy with my work you know
Y:You dumbo...you busy a???!!!(laughs like a hyena,why people dont believe when i say them i am busy?????!!!)
Me:Fine...what is the matter
Y:I need all our friends address,can you please send it to me.
Me:Sure thing,will do it...
Y:cool.
Me:Shall i give to X(See i have this weird habit of passing the phone to the people who initially took the phone,i try to change this attitude,but could nt)
Y:I asked you to send it to me and not X
Me:No probs,will do..Shall i give it to X
Y:I asked you to send the details to me and not to X...Infact i dont know anything about X....you duffer
Me:Oh it is the height of miscommunication-I should have said"Shall i give the receiver to X",instead i said "Shall i give to X"?(Thinking)...
Y:Are u on line
Me:Hey sorry was engaged with work that's why...Will send u.
Y:Hangs the open..tok(harsh count)
Lesson Learnt:
1.Dont pass on the phone to someone who took the phone
2.Should be clear with my communication i mean next time onwards i will say "Shall i pass on the receiver to blah blah blah.....

Sudithanda Sudarkodi
This is the month of margazhi(Great discovery by me)....Margazhi how did i know this info???Lots of things happening in my home made me to realize
its margazhi...
My father offers pooja exactly at 4am in the morning(Morning????!!!!Naah its actaully night in my dictionary) to the siva lingam...Rudram(Sloga)
from one side and Kacheri from other side always hit my ears,but who cares,i am always at the peak of my sleep..It is actually a lullaby for me...And the
delicious Pongal,which my mother prepares everday as prasadam after offering it to god is simply sumptuous...
Let me not deviate from my topic...I am gonna write about Sudithanda Sudarkodi,she prayed to god to be her husband...Yeah you got my point the
personality is Kodai(Godai-Go-earth,dai-given by) or andal(one who attracts)....
I dont remember the name of the king(blame my memory) who ruled Pandia kingdom...he was very much concerned about the betterment of his
people...He was searching for some nice erudite person,to whom he can hear wise sayings and offer him some rewards...He came to know about Vishnuchitta,who
stayed in Srivalliputhur...Immediately he sent a person to bring vishnuchitta...
vishnuchitta was a great devotee of Lord Vishnu...Lord Vishnu spoke to Vishnuchitta during his prayers and asked him to pay a visit to
pandian kingdom...Vishnuchitta did pay a visit and The king was happy and offered rewards....
One fine morning Vishnuchitta was busy in collecting the thulasi leaves,immediately he found a gal baby lying under the tree...He took the
child...He was astonished....Vishnuchitta never worried about anything,his only attitude was to worship Lord Vishnu,he never desired about anything...He was
worried about the child,but decided to take care of the child...
The child grew into a lovely gal and he named her as Kodai...Kodai was equally spiritual as Vishnuchitta...She always prayed Vishnu...She
prepared the tulasi garland everyday which Vishnuchitta offered it to god...One day she wore the garland and removed it and kept in the basket,Vishnuchitta
offered it to god...daily she continued the routine of wearing the garland,one fine day Vishnuchitta noticed it and felt very sad..he pointed kodai not to do
it anymore..That day he went to vishnu temple and offered the prayers without the garland...Lord vishnu spoke to Vishnuchitta to offer the garland made by
kodai,infact god prefered to wear Kodais's garland daily ..vishnuchitta did offer the same garland...Obviously she was named as Sudithanda sudarkodi....
Kodai attained the age of a beautiful gal..vishnuchitta was worried about her marraige...Kodai told vishnuchitta that she will marry only lord
Vishnu...Also lord Vishnu came in Vishnuchitta's dream and the spoke the same words as kodai....
The marraige between between Kodai and Vishnu took place in Srirangam and the Janavasam from Srivelliputtur to Srirangam...
Srivelliputur is famous or Andal Utsavam...
If i didnt speak about marghazi and Andal there is no use in writing a post..Andal offered Thirupavai slogas to lord vishnu...
It is believed today that during marghazi month gals who are not married if recite thirupavai and offer prayers to god will definitely get
a nice life and husband....So gals why are you waiting???Get up early,pay a visit to temples and ofcourse do recite Thirupavai...
PS:Andal is the only lady from Alwar family
PSS:Vishnuchitta is also known as periyalwar..
its margazhi...

Virtual tour to Arupadaividu
Beiing a devout of Lord muruga , hindu myths and a person who is interested in visiting temples,history etc(a zillion things which I am interested )I felt to draft the significance of Lord murugan’s arupadaividu…..
1.Pazhani
2.Thiruthani
3.Thiruparamkundram
4.Pazhamudirsolai
5.Swami malai
6.Thiruchendur
1.Pazhani:
We very well know about the mango fruit and the competition bt Muruga and Vinayaka…After loosing the competition Muruga went to pazhani malai…The rupa in this temple is “Andi kolam”….Pazhani Thangaratham is famous..Adi krithikai,Surasamharam etc are very well celebrated here…Beware the temple is crowded on these D days…Pazhani is a 3 hrs journey from Karur…a must visit Arupadaividu
2.Thiruthani:
If u r travelling to Thirupathi plz do pay a visit to Thiruthani ,itz actually an en route to Thirupathi..Whatz special about this temple…
The rupa here is “Kalyana kolam” with Deivayanai(The daughter of Indra,actually Deivayanai was the daughter of Vishnu,but due to the desire of Deivayanai to marry lord Muruga she was adopted by Indra)…Indra offered Airavadam(The giant and the wealthy elephant) to Muruga as Dowry…Subsequently Indra lost most of his wealth..When Muruga decided to give back the elephant,Indra rejected and asked Muruga to make the elephant point towards east…So if u visit this temple note the direction of The elephant it would be east…East is considered to be a good direction in hindu myth..Also the chest of Lord muruga is hallow and people say Asur Tharakasuran throwed a sulam and muruga with his power broke it and offered the sulam(not sure) to Vishnu.Surasamharam festival is not celebrated here.
3.Thiruparamkundram:
Again Kalyana kolam here but with Valli….Guys and gals if u are in the verge of getting married do visit the temple and lord Muruga will shower you with good life..Actually Muruga came to this place after killing the Asur SURAPADMAN….Itz very near to Madurai…
4.Pazhamudirsolai:
Itz again very near to Madurai..So apart from visiting Meenakshi temple do visit pazhamudirsolai and thiruparamkundram…
What special about this temple????Undoubtedly only one thing should flash your mind..Itz Avvayar…Suttapazham,Sudadha pazham incident took place here and yeah the Jambu tree is still there….I guess you should be familiar with Muruga’s question to Avvayar about 1.What is hard2.What is big 3.What is sweet and 4.What is rare and the answers by Avvvayar….This incident actually happened here…
5.Swami malai:
Very near to kumbakoman….”Appanuku upadesam senja Yidam-Swami malai”…Muruga disclosed the meaning of Om karam here
1.Brahma on his visit to kailasam forgot to pray muruga,Muruga posed a simple ques to brahma “tell me the meaning of OM”,brahma failed to answer..
Lord siva came to rescue Brahma…Even shiva was not aware of the meaning,so muruga asked Siva to be disciple and agreed to reveal the meaning…So Lord Muruga is the guru to Siva in this temple…
6.Thiruchendur:
Itz near Kanyakumari……The real vadam(killing ) of Surapadman took place here….This temple is very near to Sea shore…a lovely place..a soothing temple….
Important Festivals related to Murugan:
Kanda sashti,Adi krithikaim,surasamharam are some common festivals where all the Arupadaividu’s are crowded
1.Pazhani
2.Thiruthani
3.Thiruparamkundram
4.Pazhamudirsolai
5.Swami malai

We very well know about the mango fruit and the competition bt Muruga and Vinayaka…After loosing the competition Muruga went to pazhani malai…The rupa in this temple is “Andi kolam”….Pazhani Thangaratham is famous..Adi krithikai,Surasamharam etc are very well celebrated here…Beware the temple is crowded on these D days…Pazhani is a 3 hrs journey from Karur…a must visit Arupadaividu
2.Thiruthani:
If u r travelling to Thirupathi plz do pay a visit to Thiruthani ,itz actually an en route to Thirupathi..Whatz special about this temple…
The rupa here is “Kalyana kolam” with Deivayanai(The daughter of Indra,actually Deivayanai was the daughter of Vishnu,but due to the desire of Deivayanai to marry lord Muruga she was adopted by Indra)…Indra offered Airavadam(The giant and the wealthy elephant) to Muruga as Dowry…Subsequently Indra lost most of his wealth..When Muruga decided to give back the elephant,Indra rejected and asked Muruga to make the elephant point towards east…So if u visit this temple note the direction of The elephant it would be east…East is considered to be a good direction in hindu myth..Also the chest of Lord muruga is hallow and people say Asur Tharakasuran throwed a sulam and muruga with his power broke it and offered the sulam(not sure) to Vishnu.Surasamharam festival is not celebrated here.
3.Thiruparamkundram:
Again Kalyana kolam here but with Valli….Guys and gals if u are in the verge of getting married do visit the temple and lord Muruga will shower you with good life..Actually Muruga came to this place after killing the Asur SURAPADMAN….Itz very near to Madurai…
4.Pazhamudirsolai:
Itz again very near to Madurai..So apart from visiting Meenakshi temple do visit pazhamudirsolai and thiruparamkundram…
What special about this temple????Undoubtedly only one thing should flash your mind..Itz Avvayar…Suttapazham,Sudadha pazham incident took place here and yeah the Jambu tree is still there….I guess you should be familiar with Muruga’s question to Avvayar about 1.What is hard2.What is big 3.What is sweet and 4.What is rare and the answers by Avvvayar….This incident actually happened here…
5.Swami malai:
Very near to kumbakoman….”Appanuku upadesam senja Yidam-Swami malai”…Muruga disclosed the meaning of Om karam here
1.Brahma on his visit to kailasam forgot to pray muruga,Muruga posed a simple ques to brahma “tell me the meaning of OM”,brahma failed to answer..
Lord siva came to rescue Brahma…Even shiva was not aware of the meaning,so muruga asked Siva to be disciple and agreed to reveal the meaning…So Lord Muruga is the guru to Siva in this temple…
6.Thiruchendur:
Itz near Kanyakumari……The real vadam(killing ) of Surapadman took place here….This temple is very near to Sea shore…a lovely place..a soothing temple….
Important Festivals related to Murugan:
Kanda sashti,Adi krithikaim,surasamharam are some common festivals where all the Arupadaividu’s are crowded

My Virtual tour to metros of India-City 3
This city is commonly refered as "Silicon city",that is the biggest clue to find the city's name i guess.one more clue is this city holds the IT hub.Indeed,you have got it right,it is Bangalore.
I have been to this city and stayed there for a month so i guess i can write about this city to some extent.
When you ask someone about the tourist places in bangalore,undoubtedly one will say lal bagh gardens...Yippee i did visit this place...It was around 5pm we reached this place.The soothing air touched our face...Lush green fields around the garden was soothing...This place has got rare botancial species...Since it was a evening we did see many people on their walk...If u have a bore evening a walk to this garden will be pleasant...A serene place to hang for longhours in the hustling bustling city....
On the way we had a glance of Vidhan Soudha..We had a glance from the auto...Didnt get an opportunity to visit this building...But i surely have to praise the outer architecture,s very nice building.We did miss one more place its cubbon park...So please dont miss these two places....
We did miss quite a lot of places...We always admire the beauty of palaces.We didnt visit Bangalore and thipu sultan palace.Phew we did miss the lovely places.
It was a week end me and my friend decided to Visit ISKON(famous krishna temle-The International Society for Krishna Consciousness).We had my friend's cousin to help us with the routes.Krishna is one of my favourite god..We reached the temple...We have to climb few stairs to see the sanctum..We reached the top gopura...Ah what a lovely place on earth...We did enjoy the statue of lord krishna and also the architecture of the building...Such an awesome place it is.With no heart we departed from this place....
We stayed very near to HAL and The statue of Siva temple was comparably near....We planned to visit the Siva temple and we started.One of my friend has the phobia for tall buildings or statues.She was really scared.We did drop our plan to visit the temple.
Bangalore is a place to empty our pockets..Its a place to shop...M.G road,Brigade road,garuda mall are some of the few places to shop...Phew,sheesh,bah didnt go to any of these places....
bangalore silk chance se yilla,especially the mysore silk...Next time if you visit this place gals do get a silk saree there.....
Being a cricket lover Chinnaswami stadium is on my list....many matches were played and is being played here....
On the whole a lovely garden city....Have to pay a visit to visit the leftover places there.

My virtual tour to metros of India-city 2
This is my second tour to the metros of India err i mean the virtual tour to the metros of india...Ladies and gentlemen today we are going to Visit "The city of NIZAMS"...Hope you all guessed the city...Yes you are correct its Hyderabad...
Have not visited Hyderabad but heard a lot about this place..When i think of hyderabad i think of telugu,when i think of telugu i think of Mahakavi Bharathiyar's(famous poet in tamil) verses...
"Sundara teluginil patiseithu"-Meaning composing a song in sweet telugu...Telugu is always a sweet language...It's like honey soothing to ears....
Charminar adds beauty to hyderabad...Have seen the pictures umpteen times,but never been there...The lovely white marbles did attract me...
I love visiting temples....Ah how can i forget Thirupathi or the lord venkateswara or the laddu????next the birla mandir again lord Venkateswara...I heard people saying do pay a visit to Birla mandir whenever you visit Hyderabad,else you will definitely miss an eyecandy.... definitely will visit the mandir once i land hyderabad....
Salar jung museum,Hussain sagar lake(the largest man made lake which connects the twin cities Hyderabad and secunderabad),nagarjunasagar dam are other tourist spot...
Golconda fort and Mecca masjid are the other lovely places...
Now i am back to sports ,the lalbahadur stadium which hosted many important and lovely cricket matches,is a must to visit place in my list..Its unfair if i miss Gachibolli stadium which hosted Premier Hockey league...I did watch the series through television...
Arrey whatever it may be we should have entertainment in our life na...IMAX or PVR is an apt theatre to watch a movie...Ramoji film city is really an awesome place to visit...
Last but not least the food,the cuisine corner...Undoubtedly i can say only one dish when i think of hyderabad itz "hyderabad briyani"(phew have never tasted it drooling)...Ofcourse the Gongura.....All the hyderabadi dishes are rich in savoury and caustic but i love the caustic dishes...
I dont remember the verses,but the "Bazaars of hyderabad" by Sarojini Naidu features the lovely things of hyderabad.....
These are something that i know about hyderabad...Hope to Visit it soon...Catch you all with my next post..Till then signing off
