32!!!

I turn 32 on the 26th of this month. That’s a couple of days right? I love my birthdays! Silly I know. But I just feel so excited when everyone calls me, just my special day.

The last year was the hardest, most tiring, trying and FULFILLING year of my life. I saw Danny blossom into a toddler. Each and Every moment (even the sleepless nights, but that’s on hindsight) were amazing and magical. But honestly? The days I am most thankful for were the 3 days away I spent in city B. I had gone there to meet my best friends for college. It was pure heaven. I can never thank M enough for taking care of Danny, while my friends I had a blast! We drank ourselves silly. We gossiped. It felt like I was back in college.

What am I looking forward to in the coming year is definitely improved finances and my career to move somewhere. Right now the jobs I being offered are not ready to dole out the money I deserve.

I also hope the coming year is better on our marriage. I am leaving for Delhi on the 27th (meeting family = HAPPINESS). Earlier I had planned this trip as a trial separation. I had planned to move to Delhi, get a job and live there for a year. See how things go. But the last month has changed that mind set. My marriage is better than ever. M is making efforts. Most importantly, I am not being ‘needy’.

Okay now to take care of some pending business. Laura at “SurlyMama” tagged me eons ago for 20 questions. Sorry for the delay Laura. I am lazy! And I am not doing the 20 questions, just the ones I like (again lazy me!)

Rule #1: The tagged person must write their answers on their blog and replace any question they dislike with a new question formulated by themselves.

Rule #2: Tag 3 people to do this quiz; they cannot refuse (ok, so nothing bad will happen if you don’t participate but I would love to see your answers). The tag-ee must state who tagged them.

1. If you could have a dream come true, what would it be?
I have this very silly dream. I want to visit Paris. Sit at one of those road side cafes and drink coffee. Wait. That’s not all. I want to do this wearing a polka dotted dress and a hat. Silly, ya I know.


2. What would you do with a billion dollars?
Build my dream house and a animal shelter


3. What helps to pull you out of a bad mood?
Music and books

4. If you are currently in a relationship, how did you meet your significant other? If you aren’t, what have you tried in the past few years to meet someone?
I met M online. Yup! We were chatting to our friends online on a site called Hi5. M decided to have some fun chatting with this girl with this weird name. The rest, as they say, is history.


5. What kind of books do you read?
I read everything! I'm currently reading “Who do you think you are, Michael Schumacher?” Hillarious.

6. What’s your fear?
Losing the people I love and cancer.

7. Would you give up all junk food for the rest of your life for the opportunity to see outer space?
Oh yes. I will give up much more for that opportunity! I don’t like junk food in any case.

8. If you could pick a new name for yourself, what would it be?
I LOVE my name – Chhandita. Its unique. But there was a time when I was dating this guy when I wanted to convert to his religion and change my name to “Zainab” I still love this name..

I am tagging A Year on, One Perfect Emby, and Lavonne from Our Wish

It's really great to have time with friends after getting child. I have a 2 years old son and he don't give me a single minute for me.
