Get-Up-Before-6-Marathon-Day-11

From Bangalore to Bengaluru:

I was gazing through window for a while before writing this.

'Bengaluru climate is back to form' This is the statement made by many of Bengalurians for last 3 days.

Yes. This time summer was really heavy.

Now rain started.

I remember the same Bengaluru exactly before 8 years.

Oh God.. How nice it was!!!

I can put it as 'Bangalore bachelor life' in my life-diary.

'If  time machine is set 8 years back, these will be thoughts in my mind.
 

- I forgot my umbrella. I am going to drench in rain ( even if it is summer )

- I should get ready by 7.20 AM. Otherwise I will miss my office bus

- How bad the PG food is :-(

- Today I ll buy dosa in road side shop ( daily )

- why my weight is getting reduced
- When is the next holiday
- Will I get seat in BMTC bus today?

- what will happen if something happens to this flyover when we are in it.'

I had many good and not so good experiences like this; Stopping here.

Enjoy monsoon.

Love,
Vaanadhi

Ways to make your morning energising 

1. Get up before 6

2. Do at least one household chore

3. Drink plenty of water

4. Cook your own food

5. Have a brisk walk

These things are really helping me.

Try it out.

In the eyes of my 1 year old daughter..

Whatever is boiling in a vessel is 'Kuzhambu'

We can touch everything and feel it.

All the watery items in the world is to splash and enjoy.

All pet animals are equal to my soft toy.

'Amya' is the word to express all the feelings.

She is learning many things all by herself.

I am learning many more things from her.

5 things that I don't care about:

1. Other's personal life until someone asks for a help.

2. Other people's talk about me

3. My appraisal rating ☺

4. My hair length.

5. What i need to cook.

And that's all. 

It was very difficult to make this list.

Actually I do care for many things and people.

Have a happy sunday

Love,

Vaanadhi

P.S. Today I couldn't get internet connection early morning. But I was awake at 5.00 AM

When doing my NTT course , I used think of games to play with kids.

But when we were children; 

we used to play some games which were really helping for counting, learning numbers etc and it happened without our knowledge.

One such game is 'Pallankuzhi'.

There will be 12 small pits , 6 of each side and 60 same sized stones or tamarind seeds. 

Two people will be sitting opposite to each other. 

We used to fill 5 stones to each pit. Then one has to take stones from his side pit and put one by one in a sequence.

This helps to count in fives. Without my knowledge I learnt  multiplication and addition in this game.

One more that I loved and still I love to play is 'Dhaayam'. 

A Variance of this game is played now a days. 

This game also helps in counting , adding and subtracting.

The other game that I used to play was 'achangal'. 

We have to play this with 5 stones or 7 stones.

What I wonder is, our ancestors has taught us so many things likes this. 

In everything they have used all natural resources like stone,mud,seeds etc. 

When I see the toys of my kid, I am thinking, "Are they really going to help her?"

Kids always love to play with natural resources and they will learn a lot naturally. 

We need to guide them in language, reading and writing. 

Rest all they will learn in their own pace.

We need to give them space to develop on their own. That's it.

Have a happy parenthood,

Love,

Vaanadhi

Though I am allergic to travel, I love to visit new places. Here is the list of places that I want to visit in my own state. I should strike through one by one as soon as possible.

1. Gangai Konda Cholapuram - A historical place which I am longing to visit.

2. Kodaikanal - yes, I am a Tamilian but never visited this place.

3. Kanniyakumari - I want to enjoy sunrise and sunset here.

4. Southern Districts of Tamilnadu - I have never gone beyond Madhurai. I will strike through this point soon.

5. Rameshwaram - Island 

6. Mahabalipuram - For its art and history

7. The Nilgiris - Not only Ooty, I want to visit the complete district.

I am a middle-class working woman and this is my travel wish list at present. Definitely I will visit one by one, soon or later.

Prepare your own list as well.

It gives a joy to understand our own interests and little enjoyment to spend time for ourselves in the busy lifestyle.

Have a happy Friday,

Vaanadhi
