Has it been that long?

So, I killed 'Village Person', although any remaining fans can still view my older posts there. Why the drastic action? Well it'd been more than a year since I last published. Much has happened in my life since. And I decided I needed to make a clean break.

Yesterday alone two people asked me why I don't blog anymore. One of them added "Some of us do check, you know." Flattered by her comments, egged on by Red, not to mention the persistent Sangy-diatribe, I decided to give blogosphere one more go.

So here's 'Yenna Rascala', my new blog, inspired by Bollywood, Kollywood, and my own personal hero, Munduman. For those of you who don't know me better, my links to the 'motherland', aka, the 'South', is famous for getting me into a variety of situations. From Delhi highschool brats 'misplacing' my bag to random auto drivers questioning me on my ethnic origins as a result of not engaging in conversation on my ride home. More of this later.

Me Madrasi, is a tribute to the great city of Mumbai. My life here for more than a year has been much like the game show 'Survivor'. I'm forever trying to outwit, and outplay and outlast everyone from the auto driver, the barber, the office help and the Aunti-jis. Who will be voted off the island? Stay tuned to find out.
