Pragya and her friends - Update

Sweetie pies! Got an update from Pragya and her friends.... Met Pragya on way back from work a few days back. She seems to be on a diet ... Well, who is not on a diet these days!! And you got branded diet like GM Diet, for example!

On chatting with Pragya, came to know...well....she IS on a GM diet...and it was showing! Though I liked the earlier Pragya, marriage is SUPPOSED to bring about changes in anybody's life. I had noticed Pragya used to wear so many bangles..white, red...gold when she got back from her wedding.....four months later, I find the number of bangles have come down to a reasonable and manageable number!! Marriage DID bring in a change, once again, I guess. Oh! But this post is not just about the sweeeeeet Pragya but about her friends and how they have set up their HOME in Trivandrum, gradually.

They are proud owners of a television and cable connection! Phew!! Which meant unlimited streaming of Hindi programs, English news, English Films and all entertainment our girls have grown up in! I felt very nice hearing they could now watch programs in their mother tongue! :) This has also brought about a social change in their midst...the mightiest wins :) Whoever gets hold of the remote is the Queen of the Moment ... :) Is this any different from yours and my home! :) And of course, when you have more than one person watching the TV, choices to happen to be more.... BUT Pragya and her friends are happy!

They are happy taking turns cooking, cleaning, keeping their home neat and tidy on weekends, going shopping for vegetables and dividing the expense according to the vegetables they have consumed....according to the number of meals each had at home. They are also happy to have a chef in their midst who experiments with cooking....they also have a friend who is a almost a touch-me-not but all of them support her and are happy to do so! It is indeed a great pleasure to hear Pragya talk about their lives....they are no longer college recruits to the organisation ... they are no longer girls to the society, they are grown up girls..... BUT ask their parents....for them Pragya and her friends are still their doll-like daughters - Gudia (s) - (Gudia means doll in Hindi)
