12.25 am Bahrain Time
It bothers me at times, how the strangest things have a way finding me in my corner of the planet. There I go lost in the maze I call my mind, not a care in the world and half the time unaware of what’s happening around me (yes, no accidents [...]

A Night made for Sylvia Plath

Mad Girl’s Love Song:
“I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead;
I lift my lids and all is born again.
(I think I made you up inside my head.)
The stars go waltzing out in blue and red,
And arbitrary blackness gallops in:
I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead.
I dreamed that you bewitched me [...]

The Bridal Gowns on my Mind

I had a crazy talk about my wedding gown with Mel today and his observations on my taste in bridal gowns were enlightening and perfect, to say the least. 
He thinks my wedding gown is to be a strapless and backless affair with yards of lace enveloping me. Dramatic is my cue and bold is my [...]

Of Dreams & Roses

This has been a long hiatus from ‘Plan “W”‘ for me.

Dedications, Words & Their Worth

Another wedding invite made its way to my doorstep today, and guess what? It really was just another wedding card.

Pillsbury has Flown the Coop

Shonette, my bestest friend in the whole world has left for distant shores and life is never going to be quite the same again.
It was an emotional scene at the airport yesterday with everybody coming to bid a fond farewell to a girl who has never held back on anything with anyone. Loving came naturally [...]

Love Actually Is… Does Exist

Yes I know, old feel-good truth. But hey, after watching the movie such sentiments are to be expected.
I watched Love Actually for the second time today and I had quite forgotten to grin the way I had when I first watched the movie with my girlfriends.
Things were pretty different back then. We were in college. [...]
