MY VERSION OF SHE WALKS IN BEAUTY....

She walks…
And she walks in beauty…
In the enchanted woods..
She walks in beauty..

Streams swiftly flow…
To feel her silky feet…
Wind blows slow…
To touch her glowing grace…
The birds sing no more…
Listen her sing so smooth…

The sun rays hide away…
The light in her eyes, the brighter..
The daffodils dance and sway…
The smell of her skin is tender..

I turn my head, see far far away…
To taste this beautiful wonder…
And when the sunshine turns brighter…
I felt my heart getting lighter..
As I watch her move slow…
When she walks in beauty….

BROWN.. :-)

Brown! You are looking at him. 10 years old, tired, wrinkled, the coat colour fading, yet so faithful..!! This is my neighbor’s dog. He’s a small doggy who grew up to be a mini model of a fox. Well.. I know he’s not so handsome or extraordinary looking. But at this very moment, this is the dog I love the most, out of all the doggies in this world..! He’s sort of a stray. He’s not a caged dog. So he roams around the neighborhood marking his territory, growling at invader dogs and scowling at strangers.

I myself am a huuuge dog fan. Dogs are the most loyal specie of animals out of all. They really mean it when they love you. They really mean it when they come to you lowering their head, wagging the tails and looking at you with pleading eyes. They always think of you as their family. So they protect you, love you, obey you and never betray you. Such wonderful creatures they are! Dogs speak to you if you listen close enough. A cat can never do that for sure!

Brown follows me everywhere when I walk around the neighborhood. If I stay at a place for some time, he just sits and waits for me at the gate. He makes sure to clear the way with a warning to other dogs with a low growl, when he walks with me. When I come home, he jumps up with joy, speaking and his tail wags non-stop like a fan! He knows he gets a share from my plate if he sees me eating. So he never goes away. He stays till I give his share. I only have to call him once, whenever I feel like feeding him or petting him. He always comes running.

Today, I had a good look at him when he visited me. He has aged. In dog years, they only live about 15 years. So.. No sooner, Brown will also be gone. Made me sad to think of it cz he’s such a lovable doggy. I hope you guys also have doggies at your home. Fat ones, tall ones, grumpy ones, playful ones, moody ones, thin ones, short ones, long ones like Weiner doggies and even ‘diggy’ ones who dig and hide the food. No matter the kind, they are all lovable. So love them a lot. Show them that you adore them. You’ll be surprised when you get to know how much they love you when they love you back. Cheers!

THE GROWING HAPPINESS..

Now.. If you happen to read the girl on the move’s blog regularly, you might remember that once she said that she’s gonna plant some good vegetables in her garden. Well… She did it and the outcome is pretty good! Eggplants and chili plants are still growing. Tomatoes didn’t come up good. Pathola flowers have started to bloom. The strawberry plant is going quite well too. Small strawberries come up then and there.

Yet, the best one are the ladies fingers. They have come up really well. See the picture? That's one of them! Everyday there are 3 or 4 to pluck! It’s sooo wonderful to see them growing fast and you get this happy feeling when you pluck them when they’re in full ripe! Well.. The whole ‘growing vegetables’ thing is so cool, sooo.. it will be continued! :D

DEDICATED TO ALL MY SCHOOL BUDDIES....

Just a little piece of my mind, I’m summing up like this… On my way from work today, I bumped into an old friend of mine from school. I met her exactly 10 years after we left school. We talked a great deal of things that happened in our lives for the past 10 years. Guess what? We both have ended up in life pretty much well. The moment I bid her goodbye, I began to wonder about how my friends from school are doing with their lives now… (Them being you all of coz..) :D

See… We all have ended pretty well, haven’t we? Now… as a Devian.. if you turn back and have a look at your life, you will know that I’m telling the truth. Good lives, that is! Surrounded by loving families.. equipped with a good education… good jobs…loving boyfriends… good husbands… adorable kids…. having a wonderful lot of friends… It’s just not photos of some random occasions.. trips or parties that you upload in your FB. It’s again a sign to remind you that you breathe the sweet essence of life in a very beautiful way! See! We LIVE life to the fullest. We ARE happy! We have best of the things in our lives. We really do, don’t we?

You know.. being educated from a leading school in the country is really a huge advantage in many ways. One might think of the competition and the good education only. But Mother Devi is not just another school of that kind. We did get a good education from school; true. But most importantly, it was where we built the good solid foundation of our lives. Devi girls have so many human values in their lives in general, comparatively.

We are selfless.. We care.. We help others in a great deal.. We are always there for each other… This is just a pinch from what we call as human values. We are rich with them.. It’s our school who taught us all these values.. and how to live successful lives with those values. It’s those values that we earned from the past which made us successful today. This is something that we Devi girls have in common. It makes us unique. We can actually turn back and look at our lives and smile, remembering how lucky we are! Can’t we? Yes.. We ARE that rare kind who belong to the breed of ‘happy and successful’.

We love our school so much. This is why we are successful people today. Devi girls… WE ROCK!

THE GIRL ON THE MOVE IS ON THE MOVE AGAIN....

A new chapter in my life started this week as I began my second job in a new place. So far, things are so good. New place and new people. Things seem fine. From the day 1 I started missing my friends in my previous workplace. In BIG time that is. I guess it’s because I need some time to adjust to the new place and the new culture at the new place.

Life begins again.. and I have so much hopes on it too. One being start saving money in a good deal cz I realized how important it is when I was having a good holiday at home. Life will be busy again. But I like being busy. Honestly, there will be so many good things to look forward to. Fingers crossed….

BEING SUPERNATURAL...

It was always about Prison Break. Scofield.. Big big brother Burrows… T-bag… Alex Mahone.. Sarah.. LJ.. I watched it all to the end point.. and it was all brilliant, as the word implies. This is not about Prison Break, guys. Today.. I’m gonna tell you something supernatural. It’s a cool TV show too. The 5th season is currently on air and the show has gotten better throughout the past seasons. Supernatural is not very well known to Sri Lankan viewers, I guess. But it’s really cool. Maybe I say cool cz I love the stuff in it. Supernatural stuff.

The stars of the series are Jared Padalecki as Sam Winchester and Jensen Ackels as Dean Winchester. The Winchester brothers are just like Ghostbusters, but they’re just far more than any Ghostbusters we can think of. They hunt down demons, ghosts, spirits and all the other species that has a supernaturally paranormal origin. The brother call themselves as ‘hunters’ and there’s a community of hunters just like them. A powerful demon visits the Winchester residence when Sam was merely an infant, burns their mom glues to the ceiling, kills her and gets away. That’s where the story starts. Sam and Dean’s dad Jhon starts searching for the demon. The brothers take over the job when they get older…and they hunt down whatever creatures they meet on the search.

Well guys.. I’m so much in to supernatural stuff and mythology. So for me.. it was all very interesting. We only know about spirits, demons and ghosts. That’s only 3 species out of the 100. There are more! Women in white are one category.. Shtrigas.. Wendigos.. Zombies.. Rippers.. All the kinds of evil! Points to ponder: You can make a salt line, so that the spirits can’t cross it. Holy water and salt are acidic to them. You can use iron to stab them. Shotguns work too. To trap a demon, you can trick it into a pentagon so that he can’t get out. There’s an exorcism spell to send the demon right back to hell. You can make a deal with a demon at a cross road in exchange of your soul. The best way to kill a spirit id burn the bones of the dead person. Well.. There are so many stuff guys.

I’m at the 5th season now. Sam’s girlfriend gets killed just the way his mom died and that’s when Sam hits the road to help his dad and Dean. Their dad dies saving Deans life in the 2nd series. Sam gets killed. Dean makes a deal with a demon at the crossroads, trading his soul and brings back Sam to life. They kill the demon who killed their mom. They couldn’t prevent the opening of a door to the hell, so.. more demons come to our world, the strongest of them, called Lilith. A demon called Ruby volunteers to help them to kill Lilith. Dean was dragged to hell by hellhounds when he’s done with his time on earth, according to the deal he made. At the 4th season, angels come down to earth and the story becomes more interesting. Angels drag Dean from hell and gives him life. Lilith’s task is to awake Lucifer, or Satan as we know. There are 66 seals to be broken to do so. Demons and Angels fight side by side. Sam and Den, along with Ruby, help them. Sam has developed psychic powers since he was fed demon blood by the demon who killed their mom, when he was an infant. So… At the end of the 4th season, the 66th seal gets broken. Sam kills Lilith, not knowing that Lilith is the 66th seal. Ruby has tricked him and when Lilith dies, Lucifer rises. Angels fail. Interesting stuff…

There’s a confirmation of a 6th season of Supernatural as well. I would really wait for it! Just watch it and see guys! I hope you’ll like it too. Girls.. You’ll love Dean.. He’s hot and cool in the same time. Good luck with the paranormal!

HOPING FOR THE BEST...

Life these days to me is all about relaxing. I’ve been jobless for more than 2 months now. I really had a good rest and some quality time for myself. For 2-3 weeks, I didn’t look for jobs, cz I wanted to forget the whole ‘job’ thing for a while and take a rest.

Now.. I apply for jobs and I get interviews. I go for them too. The advantage is having some good experience in the field, so I guess I have the chance to get opportunities. Well.. I kept myself occupied for the last 2 months and I guess I had a good and useful holiday. Putting the last two months in bullet points is the easiest way, I guess. I read so many good books.. I watched a good number of movies… It counts finishing up the Prison Break Series and well.. I’m now in the 5th season of Supernatual.. Coming up is the Heroes and Robin Hood series all over again. Lol..

I have a vegetable garden now.. Funky ha? Got the first harvest of ladies fingers last week. Hehe.. That was something I always wanted to do. You have to water them and use fertilizers and look after them well. I go to driving school these days. I never had a driving license all this time. Did some good cooking.. Learned a lot of new things from the web. There was work in the house, so I helped. Never watched TV. Exercised. Ate good organic home made food, no junk food anywhere near.

I went out a lot with my friends. But I DO miss my friends at work a great deal. 3-4 times I dropped in to office to meet my friends. I loved that life. Most of the friends and things my life are still bound to that place. However, the bad part of is that I have no income now. So I’m poor and I’m running out of money.. Hehe.. So.. It really feels like starting the life all over the A/L. You have no money… You have no job and you plan for your studies. Oh.. I forgot to tell about the studies part. Since I’m NOT going to Canada… as per now, I wanted to start studies here. That will again be an MBA. Yesterday I had the aptitude test in the University I’m targeting. There’s a huge competition and the test itself was tough. So.. Crossing my fingers and waiting to see what will happen.

I schooled.. did my degree… did a job for 3 years and now.. I’m taking a break. I have started my life all over again and it really feels good. I always wanted a change in life. So.. Now I’m taking that change. No idea what life holds for the rest of the year; but as I always believe.. I hope for the best.. and continue hoping that life will lead me somewhere good. Cheers guys! Miss you all a lot!
