Saras India

When I am out of my routinelife it is really hard to maintain the blog regularly. And specially when you decide to go for a spontanious villagetrip, where there is no internet! Christmas was supposed to be spent at home, a surprise christmasparty was planned in my house, but I decided to go elsewhere, in the last minute. I had lots of fun, but after this little trip I can easily say that I am not made for Indianvillage life. If you want to know how it is to be a celebrity, go to a small village. People love you and they just want to be around you, to have a look at you, talk to you, take pictures with you. Thank God I am not a celebrity, I could not do with all the attention all the time.

I came back home 7am this morning, I slept for a few hours and then I started packing for my 2 next trips. Not only packing, I had some laundry to be done, and other small things.. Now it is 2 hours til my bus will leave and I am still not done. Packing is one of those things that I really hate doing, it always takes me forever, or just one minute and then I have forgotten most of the things..

Being home and sick is the worst thing I know. I get super bored when I do nothing. And who wants to come and hang out with someone who is sick?! Well I guess both my body and mind need some relaxation, why it couldnt wait for a few more days when my leave starts, I dont know.. Half of the day I have spent in bed sleeping, oh how I hate waisting my days like this.

Well I also had time to watch TV today. I have hardly used it at all, but today it has been on almost the whole day, with and without sound.. Even after sleeping so much today, I am still feeling tired. Now I can hardly keep my eyes open, so I will go and sleep now...

How easy it is for someone to make you feel so unappreciated. A few words, a look, someone elses word.. No matter how hard you try, or think you are trying, it is never enough because it is not perfect.

I just want to be in my bed, and not move for a week. I dont want to go to work and I dont want to meet anyone.

I want to switch off my mobiles. I dont want to take any calls, I dont want to text anyone, I basically dont want to be around people right now. I had a really bad day, I never expected it to be such a crappy day.

Hopefully I can change my life pretty soon. What I have now is not what I want in life! But still, I am too much in love with this bloody country to make the one change I want to happen.

I am little of a dramaqueen, a few people know that. So it might not be as bad as I have made it sound. I am just having a bad day, thats all. In a few days everything will be forgotten and back to normal.

Both my family in Sweden and my family in India. ♥

My indian family (consisting of me, my mobile, my laptop and my shoes) has now got one more member. And we all love him a lot. He is awesome, and I know we will have so much fun. Although I spent a lot of money, more than I planned on doing, I am happy with this little baby of mine..

This place was one of those stupid places where it is not good to be a foreigner. The price to enter?
Indians: 200rs
Foreigners: 400rs


Entry of the palace

Listening to the Auditour for the Bangalore Palace


Even when I am off I am working...

Me and the palace in the background.

I wish I could drive this bike, its really good one. But it is so heavy for me. I couldnt even balance it without the stand...

Oh, how badly I want to have my own horse now. Or atleast go for riding everyday.. I miss it these days...

I went to a temple in Indira Nagar some time back. It was really nice. I have been inside temples before but not like this. I was doing all the rituals like everyone else, and walking around in this lovely temple. The statue was really nice, and huge like you can see in the picture.. When I left this place, I found a bracelet that I have been wanting to have for so long and I also bought some of these bubbles made of water and soap, I dont know what you call it in english, for my maids daughter. She got so happy that I bought her a gift, and she kept playing with it the whole day, and finished it in one day also..

I have a constant flow of readers everyday, that makes me feel quite guilty when I am not writing anything. Like you can see I have almost given up my blog. I dont want to do that, I like writing here, and I love that so many people are reading my blog. But these days I am keeping myself very busy, and I dont even know what to write. A friend of mine was making fun of me the other day when I was out. I got a drink and I kept complaining that the straw was broken. He laughed and said that he would read about that in my blog the very next day. So I guess its those boring things I write about these days. I dont want to bore you with those things. So, instead I am writing nothing, because really nothing fun or exciting is happening these days.

I am so happy. I have had periods in my life where I have not been happy. At all. Like really, really not happy. And it feels so good that I am over that, and I can really feel a huge difference. I enjoy my life so much, I wouldnt wanna change my life with anyone! Okay, the only change I would like to have in my life is more money, but most of us wants that. But small things can make me really happy. Like today, I got a drop in the evening, thanks to my colleague. The I went to a sweetshop to buy my favourite sweet - jalebi. After that I went to the alcoholstore and bought my favourite rosewine - and they had a bottle that was already cold - happiness! Tonight I will sit at home and enjoy my life, along with my roommates. Oh yes, one more thing. As soon as I opened the door to my house today, I saw a Christmastree! Even more happiness ♥

So my dear friends, and whoever you all are, enjoy your life, and have an awesome evening.

The DJ in this place was awesom, I really liked Tuhin Mehta. And he was very cute also..

This song has become very popular in India, and I am one of those who love this also. 16 million people have seen this clip already. I read on facebook the other day, someone had written that the new WTF is WTK - Why this Kolaveri. I suggest you to do one thing, to really know how funny this song is. First you listen to the song, dont look at the lyrics that is there.. Try to listen what he is singing. The second time, do read the lyrics.



It took me many times to realise that this guy is singing almost everything in english. I kept telling my friends to translate this song for me, and they all told me that it is in english, and I should understand it myself. And this is the accent that I have made fun of for a long time, and I know I have tried to explain it in the blog. Like people always say straight-u when they want to go straight, or left-u when they want to go left. And now you will really understand how they talk, although this might be a little exagerated, like holy cow-u is little too funny! Well just listen to the song and enjoy and laugh... I did that the first time I saw what he sang, and I always have a small smile on my face whenever I hear this song..
