After a gap of 3 months, if a mother sees her kid, ipdi ethachum dialog varumthaana expect panuveenga.

Athaan illa.

Had a skype chat with mom. Indhiya tholaikaatchigalil mudan muraiyaaga mathiri..it was the first ever time my mom was in video chat. Solli vacha mathiri, video was not appearing in their end due to some connection problem. After a few minutes of voice chat, suddenly the video issue got resolved. First question from mom.

"Ennadaa thalaya ipdi vachitruka!! anga poitu hair cuttay panniakalaya?"

Avvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv.....

Rapunzel ku aduthabadia intha hairstyle issuesnaala ivlo kushtapattathu gilsa thaan irukum. For me, intha yogi sithar mathiri jadaa mudi hairstyle romba pudikkkkum. My reminder to get hair cut would be that if and only if, it falls like wiper blade on my specs.

There was this Pomeranian naaikutty called Julie next to our house. As usual, enna thavira enga veetla ellarukum antha dog was pet. En sister enna sonaalum kekkum. Enna kanda mattum kadikka varum :(  "Julieya vida neria mudi valarthutta..naai bayapda poguthu..ipdi hairstyle vitta enakkay kadikanum polaruku..athu en kadikka varaathu..po..first summer cut pannikitu va" nu adikadi arulvaaku varum. Athenna therila..puppylenthu pug varaikkum..alsatian lenthu dalmation varaikkum..therunaai verinaai sorinaai..whatever canine variety you could think of, elaamay gils kanda karam kattikitu kadika varum!! Pona jenmathula kallaala adichirupeno?

Video chatla intha topic vanthathuku innoru main reasonum undu. Inga vanthaprum cousins moonu peruku major hair loss. Kitta thatta mottai mandai matiri aidichi. Athunala she was majorly worried. Aanalum, i never expected that would've been the very first thing on her mind :)

Seri..anga iruntha thaan thittu vaangitu hair cut ponom paatha..inga video chatla vaangi kattikitu went. Namma ooray thevalamnu aaidichi. Inga porathuku minthiye friends warned. "Machi..namma oor mathirilaam illa inga. Mudi vetravangaluku englishlaam teriathu. So nee solrathu enna purinjuthu, evlo purinjuthungaratha vachu avangala ethaachum paathu panna thaan undu". Namakku thaan nalla naalulaye haircut porathu peria poraatamaachay. Atha pathi sila pala postugal intha bloglaye iruku. Erkanavay namakkum avangalukum vaaikka thagaraaru..itula kaiya pudichi izhuthiya kathai veraya!!! Velanginaapola thaannu varuthathoda went.

Saloon kulla ponaa oru aunty came.
"You've been here before?"
"Intha thalaiya paathuma intha kelvi" nu yosicihkittay "No" i replied.
She typed something and asked me to wait for a while. I was about to doze off when someone called out ABCD in the wrong order. Ennada ithu thappu thappa letter solraangalaay paatha...athu en name!!! fulla pronunce panna mudiyaama they were calling it out letter by letter. First name last name rendum serthu avanga solli mudikarathuku munnadi i got up from my sleep and went in.

"So whats your number?"
I told her my phone number.
She gave a funny look and said " it should be anything from 1 to 5..1 being the tallest and 5 being shortest"

Aduthu 5 la multiply panni 2 la divide panna solluvaganlonu yosicihtrukarapo thaan remembered..Intha oorla number solli thaan mudi vetuvaangannu. My friend had told that saria number sollalaina suthama motta adichi vitruvaangannu.
I told her why dont you try a suitable hairstyle of your choice. Antha aunty semma vevaram pola.
"I dont know..you should tell me. Which one you want"
"Sidela shortu..frontla long nu" i gave her the usual steps that i give in India. Appovum ammani masiayala.
"7.5"
"what?" Noticing the kolaveri on her eyes, ithuku mela vambu panna venaamnu, i said 4. Athu jaasthiya kammiya..correcta thappa nu oru patti mandram yosichi mudikarathukulla she was dusting off the floor.

Oru vazhia came out and when i spoke to my mom again her reaction was

"Evlo vaati sonnalum ozhungavay vettika maatiyaa..ithennathu thirumbavum mullampandri mathiri mandaiya vachikitu vanthirukka"

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr....
