Random thoughts

Independence is'nt easy .Five months of living outside the nest and I'm beseiged by ego wrangles with room mates , having to live on a shoe string budget and missing home comforts . It does have it's upside though - I do feel like a responsible adult in charge of my destiny .Well , almost .
In a lighter vein , saw 'Jodha Akbar ' the other day. The movie claims to chronicle the love story of the Mughal Emperor Akbar and his Hindu wife Jodha.What it forgets to mention is that he married many such Hindu Princesses and the marriages were all probably politically motivated .
Historical inaccuracies aside , the movie was'nt that bad , enjoyable even , in parts. What intrigues me though , is whether people really wore clothes in such psychedelic colours in those days.
If you'd care to know , had a bout of Typhoid some time ago . Was told to go easy on fried food and the like .Three weeks after my tryst with good old Salmonella typhii and I'm finally allowed to eat carcinogenic junk. Hallelujah .
