Reconnecting to the outside world..

Well.. almost 4 months..i had to keep myself away from the outside world. ask why! coz i had no access to newspaper everyday.. i dont say i am obsessed with reading newspaper dialy. but still i felt an unusual disconnectedness.... after all a news paper is not only about politics. it is about opinions, celebrations and sufferings at the same time.. well...some might argue one cannot change the world by reading just what happens. but sure one can change one's own ways of thinking and doing if there is a discussion relevant to his/her lives and happenings... although it feels sad to read about all the pain and sufferings everyday, i feel it is just a way of connecting to the outside world. and above all, i just admire the people who work for a newspaper (unlike news channes which these days resort to all kinds of rubbish programmes just for publicity ) for their timely work and especially the punctuality.. i wish if I could be one of them which seems highly impossible which is evident thru how (ir)regularly i update my one and only blog! :-P

Being a girl....

Hmmm... these days i think a lot about myself! i wonder how would i describe myself to someone who is totally strange to me and would it match with how others find me. btw no philosophy[ i must remind this time and again i think ;) ]. what makes me think like this is - people have a notion that girls need to be submissive. being polite is a different thing. but if u talk assertive, is it being arrogant? or if you express your views regardless of other's opinions. how fair it is if views/opinions are changed according to whom you are talking? and there comes the question of identity. being a girl, is it wrong to expect an identity for ourselves???
