Following Niklas’s advice of being an exhibitionist — but mostly after the scare of nearly losing all my photos — I finally kicked my lazy butt into putting up my Britain pics. No, don’t worry, I will not subject the public at large to every last one of those 1,396 photos. Instead, what will follow […]

1,396: The price paid
[EDIT:The title of this post no longer holds good. I have since recovered my 1,396 photos by using a file undelete software on the SD card of the camera. I thoroughly recommend Glary Utilities for general computer-related housekeeping.] Does anyone really come out of a system crash unscathed? I believe not, but there are a […]
Remembering Hamlet
The scene was a modern-day royal court when he walked out on stage for the first time — a tall, spare figure sharply dressed in a black suit, dark hair tightly slicked back, expression sombre. He stood, silent and upright, in one corner of the stage, a champagne glass in hand, seemingly oblivious to the […]
Bitten by Britain 2
The Wales Update Well, Cardiff, as fans will know, is the Doctor Who city, so no surprise that my day tour was a total fangirl trip! Photos later, but in short, I did check out the Millennium Centre and Roald Dahl Plass from “Boom Town” — and subsequently other — Doctor Who episodes, and all […]
Bitten by Britain?
(All right, that’s a terrible one, but heck, I’m having too much fun to care!) So, here’s a (very) quick round-up of the highlights of my Great British (ha ha!) trip so far. This is going to be written very quickly, so excuse any typos, etc. England Without doubt this has to be Hamlet performed […]
The Timeless Land
The Timeless Land is awaiting comments from the publisher, but I thought it’s high time I put up something about it. “I want not to have killed a person.” Maya Subramaniam’s life is arguably far more complex than the average fourteen-year-old’s. As the youngest Halvard of the Sands of Time, torn between loyalty to her […]
What’s up Doc?
Niklas pointed out to me the other day that I hadn’t updated in a while. Well, guilty on that count, but I have been feeling strangely blog-dry lately. Anyhow, since “writing” seems to be the flavour of the season right now, here’s a little look into what I’ve been working on. Kale’s Folly (working title): […]

Updating Through Flock
This update is being done through the Flock 2 Beta blog editor. For the uninitiated, Flock is more than just a plain old Web browser. If social networking is your sort of thing, this intriguing application is certainly worth a look at. With its integrated blogging, media sharing and “people” services, it should keep any […]
Bangalore Pride 2008
Sunday, 29 June 2008, sees history being made in Bangalore. For the first time, the city joins Kolkata and also-first-timer Delhi in having its first ever LGBT Pride Parade. Worldwide, the modern LGBT movement is largely acknowledged as having had as a catalyst an event referred to as the Stonewall Rebellion. On 29 June 1969, […]
World Vision Partners Meet 2008
On Saturday, 14 June, I went to the Bangalore World Vision Partners’ Meet. The idea behind these meetings is, of course, for sponsors and World Vision to meet face to face, and all in all it was an evening well spent. We all finally got see Lily — the lady behind all the correspondence, urging […]
