Mayada:Daughter of Iraq...By Jean Sasson

Thats the last book i read a few days back and i must say the plot engrossed me so much that i completed the book in no time..well i must say calling it a "plot" would belittle the heart-wrenching story of Mayada...who survived the gallows of baladiyat prison and the gruesome torture meted out to her and several other unassuming Iraqi women and the true grit which brought her alive out of the dark gallows...its higly recommended reading....my friend says reading is so soothing..it takes you to the world of fantasy...well i must say that after reading Mayada's escapades...our life looks like fantasy coz for those Iraqi women it was plain and simple hell on earth ...divine justice probably is the word which often came to me as i was reading the book...the way Saddam met his Nemesis...could be nothing short of divine justice!!!!
Read it whenever you lay your hands on it!!

welcome to me.....

hello, last nite it was a nite of some intellectual outburst for me as i was introduced to this fascinating world of blogging...a kind hearted friend suggested me to do 'something out of the routine'...something different and said this is her way of doing it...well i was instantly hooked to it...thanks to her she introduced me to some exquisite blogs..and i must say that triggered the urge to blog all the more.....Thank God for that....like everyone else the very mundane would definitely not have my mind ticking!!!
believe you me..i was lying on bed and thinking what should be my first blog all through...well random thoughts did cross my mind which i hope to pen down or shall i say "key in" but lets see...where this will take me

hi..by the way i am Supriya and i consider myself a very balanced person..maybe its too much of belief in my stars...u see i am a Libran!!!shall tell u more abt me in subsequent posts...
