Such a busy weekend I had. I went to London with my friend to the Holi Festival of Colours. So it is based on a religious festival, but as you might expect, this was anything but religious.  It was in the Olympic park, it took as 2.5 hours to get there. It;s been many years since I set my foot in Stratford, they...

I started my weekend early this week. Though every morning I wish I could stay in bed for an extra hour yet on my day off I was up and ready  before 9 o'clock.  I was quite productive today, I tidied up our flat, collected my parcel, bought my mum presents. And watched like 6 episodes of True Blood. Yes, very productive day!...

It's only Tuesday but I'm exhausted. Yesterday I had to go up north for training, it takes 5 hours to get there so I had to get up at 4 am to catch the very first train. It was a session on social media. Even though it's not relevant to my role, I found it very interesting and rather useful. I could possibly...
