Playschool woes

In the next few months,Namnam will be turning 3.I have already begun the hunt for good playschools for her.And from the endless discussions that I have had with my other mommy friends,I realize what a major task zeroing in on one is!

My friends,who have children Namnam's age and I were in consensus when we realized we wanted to send our kids to an institution which could provide them with a friendly atmosphere,which could tap their capabilities in the best way possible and where they could have fun in those few hours that they would be there for.Mind you,this is playschool that I'm talking about here.God save me,what will happen when I start the search for a proper school about a year down the line!

Its my turn...to shift base

I've been mulling over it for sometime.Ever since I witnessed Indyeah,IHM,Usha & Smitha making the shift from blogger to wordpress I have been tempted to try it out on myself.Then the final straw came from Ummon.And I had to jump in the fray.

So here I am attaching below the URL to my new domain.Do visit me there and grace me with your thoughts.

Will he or wont he?

Tomorrow is the day.Will he?Or wont he?Will he make history?Will he prove his detractors wrong?Will he finally take home the title that has been eluding him?We'll only know tomorrow how much of an iconic player he is.Yes I am talking about ROGER FEDERER.





This is the fourth consecutive French Open final that he has reached and every time he has missed the title by a whisker.And for the last three years Rafael Nadal has been a bane in his way at the Roland Garros
This year,however,with Rafa out of the reckoning,we have reasons to believe that Fedex might treat us to an historic fiesta.This title will give him two honours.One he will have won his first ever French Open,the only Grand Slam that he has not won till now and two,he will have created history by winning 14 Grand Slam titles in all.Something that is attributed to only Pete Sampras.
However,the person who stands between him and his destiny is Robert Soderling,who,by the turn of fate,crucified Nadal in the fourth round.But,of the 9 previous meetings he has had with Federer,the latter has always emerged victorious.Thats an incredible respite.

Being a die-hard Federer-fan myself I have my money,my bets,all my stakes on him.For me,he is right up there.He is the best.I remember how dejected he looked after losing to Rafa in the marathon Wimbledon final last year and then again this year at the Australian Open.Gosh!I was crying as I watched him break down on TV.
Hopefully this year he will be all smiles and bringing smiles on our faces too.I have my fingers crossed!

Go Federer go!Tell them you are the greatest!


EDITED TO ADD: And he did it!Way to go,Fedex!
