The Mindy Kalings

Wednesday, February 27, 2013

I have to confess and y'all might hate me for it. I hated Kelly Kapoor in the Office. She was clingy on Ryan, who was an absolute jackass to her, and jabbered on incessantly even when it was apparent to her that no one wanted to listen. Of course, at the time I did not register the significance of a having a brown skinned woman not only acting in the show but also writing for it and clearly being recognized for it - which is why now, even before the long overdue demise of the Office, she has enough talent to launch her own show. T

First of all: WOOOT! Brown-Woman-in-the-Lead-Role Pride.

Second: Non-anorexic, healthy and totally confident woman in lead role.

Third: It's been a while since I've seen Chris Messina on screen - since Julie and Julia :)

Despite its noted shortcomings, I am more than willing (actually desperately hoping) to give this show a chance. Hello, how many times do South Asians make history like this? Not too often, so I say we take a moment and appreciate the fact that Mindy Kaling has made television history. She has broken the mould of a-brown-is-no-more-than-side-kick-of-the-lead by becoming the lead.

Sunday Morning Rush

Sunday, February 10, 2013

There is nothing more spectacular than waking up on a Sunday morning facing a beautiful hue of the sky (trust me when I say that it is akin to a miracle after going through a record-breaking blizzard), fully rested at 10 A.M., basking in the after effect of watching Cairo Time and viewing Lynn Crawford's "Pitchin' In" on Food Network.

It's true what they say, the morning is truly fantastic if one gets a chance to behold it. I feel like working out, running outside despite the chilling weather, cooking myself a hearty breakfast and even clean my room! None of these urges are normal. For me.

I have sincerely lost the ability to write ever since I got my internship, got insanely obsessed over my fitness, and have come home so exhausted from the commute that writing has become the last thing on my mind. Instead I'm frantically fussing over Youtube vidoes of make-up tutorials, scrounging through the Internet for hijabi friendly websites and trying make a routine out of Yoga - and of course trying to find a cheap yoga mat because I do not want to splurge on one from Lulu Lemon given that they are immeasurably overpriced.

If anything, my in-coherency should point to my recent lack of reading literary novels and resorting to chick lits instead. What can I do? They're more addictive than cinnamon candy hearts.
