yes! the wedding hall booked. the engagement hall booked. the wedding and engagement dates fixed. of course, the groom also (sigh!) finalized.
so, we have 275 days to count till the wedding and heaps of things to do.
of course, this gives me splendid opportunities to get into every designer store in town, buy n own fabulous ensemble, try my hand at designing and what not!
PS - to the 50 yr old divya and lakshmi.... take a look at this page now. u were crazy gals once.
It seemed like the most impossible relation to work, what with the head to toe difference in culture, customs, language, stern family beliefs.... but today, it worked out so fast, even b4 the blink of an eye.... all cos these two wonderful people are meant to be together... not just in sickness or in health, more like in sanity or otherwise (mostly)!
Love u guys! and all the best Neel! stay sane Mulla.... :)

A lot of unexpected things come your way.... some surprisingly wonderful that you would die of joy and some shockingly horrible that it cud just kill you. One among them is the serendipity of finding the perfect prince. And this one is for that prince who swept me off my feet...
"Never in a million years did I think that I would find someone so utterly and completely perfect, someone who cud make me happier than I ever dreamt I could be, someone who would touch my life so profoundly and give me a whole new reason to breathe. But wen I found u, and hoped that all my anticipations would turn to reality, how so disappointed I was!
You were nothing that I hoped you would be. You were nothing that I dreamt of. Nothing that I wanted. You were much more than all that. Much more than I could dream, much more than I could need, much more than I deserved....."
Prepare yourself to let go of everything that you fear to lose
"AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!". The entire room swam in front of my eyes. I felt dizzy and nauseous. I screamed, I yelled; I was in pain.
And it happened again.
"CCCCCCCHHHHHHHHHIIIIIIIIIIMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!"
I heard a scamper, the swish of curtains and then Lakshmi was next to me.
"Its ok. Be calm. It's gonna be alright", she kept assuring.
"NNNOOOOOOOO........." It was hurting bad. I tried to think of everything pleasant or distractible - sunrise, twilight skies, puppies, rains, Abhishek Bachan, John Abraham, and for some strange reason VJ's sentimental dialogues while watching Kal Ho Na Ho....
I gulped my urge to yell and frantically fluttered my hands trying to hold tight on to something. My eyes were profusely watering, and hurting too.
"Babes. I can't take this anymore. Make this stop! I don't want this to happen. It's a torture! Why do girls have to put up with this?", I kept talking to forget the pain.
"It's almost over", she consoled me, "here, take my hand".
I was trying to grab her hand.... the next jolt of pain hit me.... I snatched her arm making bloody scratch marks all over her fingers. She winced, I knew that I hurt her bad, but I couldn't care about it.
After about 30 minutes, I knew that it was over for good. The lady who was attending me straightened up with a big sigh of freedom.A look of relief replaced her morose look
"Doesn't she look cute?", Lakshmi asked the lady.
"Yes, she does", the lady replied.
Nope! I was not delivering a baby. Just getting my eyebrows done!
