We have heard this a billion time, the ga-ga over WOMEN-MONEY topics, its all over the place if you have been ignorant. People are now aware that the saying Money can buy anything is turning into a reality and so its also getting to women who for many years always got the backseat if it was that PROMOTION she deserved and never got it, the VACATION she always wanted to have but didn't get it, HUSBANDS too nowadays......men love wealth...its a fact!. With women now acquiring strong office positions,politics,fashion,business,technology......we have conquered the earth finally.....no more only doing the dishes,laundry and all the backseat work. We are part of the euphoria, we are the WOMEN OF SUBSTANCE.
But, i have also noticed another brutal fact. Although we stress so much on our achievement as the new women, there are still a majority who are suffering mentally and physically. And its these women that deserve all the praise who stick it out with their hard life's, it could be their drunk husbands, abusive family,sexual harassment's etc. In our country the women is looked down upon when shes born, a women is seen as a sex object and is always taken advantage of.
Its a complicated species: WOMEN! there are all sort of theories that are written and spoken off, but they are not enough to read the mind of a women. Shes strong,determine,ready to face troubles,ready to love,ready to serve,ready to die..........all you have to do is LOVE, APPRECIATE,ENCOURAGE.......coz if you don't shes always ready to HATE!!!!

A New Found Interest
A life lived with various stories to tell is a bestseller. As with me, i never new that for a person like me who is a self-confessed dreamer would have so much to tell. Well, what so much to tell u might wonder...but then all at 22 if someone has already had 4 jobs am sure I'll have ears to tell the stories.
The following is the "untold story" of my bestseller: My Life
I was just out of college with a Post-graduation degree to flash and a determined journalist to be i wanted to be the first Natasha D'souza that people knew and not the next somebody. I land myself a job which didn't get off to the smoothest of starts, which in a way helped me to come back next round and kick ass at work :)
With the bad patch seeming at the end the new week started with me telling the boss, i wanna cover "Indian football" why Indian football? i didn't know myself i just wanted to do it. At that point i had no clue if i would be able to deliver what am promising, i had never cover football at any level and the thoughts of "what, where, why, when, how" cluttered my head. But back of the head i knew I'd be a "HIT" am at my best when responsibility is upon me. Its as if some amount of "power" rest in my hands, it works a world of good for me.
So how in the name of mighty Hercules was i going to start the web of getting footy players contacts, what was i going to ask them even if i had their numbers?, where are the footy players located?, when will they be available for a interview?, and above all how will they treat me when i approach them for a interview? . Would they be snobbish like the cricket players, there was too many things buzzing into the head and it all stopped after i put my excellent research skills to use....a little bit of Google also contributed to the task. And voila!! i found contacts of the entire Indian football team and that also earned praise from my team leader at work.
So after the quest found started my interview rounds and the first footy lad i nailed was Mehrajuddin Wadoo. Why Wadoo u might ask again? but i seriously don't know again.....some might say because his the "hot" guy..oh well that wasn't the only reason. But i think his name itself did the trick, Wadoo!. I dialed his number after a couple of tring-tring, he picks the call, sounds all pumped after a training session Wadoo promised me an interview the next day. That was achievement for me to get him to speak for the interview.
Next morning again after a couple of tring-tring Wadoo didn't pick the call....i was worried if the Kashmir had busted my bubble. But then, they don't say ' try and try till u succeed' for nothing, i buzzed the guy again and a sleepy sounding Wadoo picks the call. On hearing my voice and recognising that it was me "Natasha" he readily agreed to give 15 minutes of his precious time.
After the interview was done i was one happy cricket :) and yes i have to admit Wadoo is indeed "hot" with his looks, almost like a model guy playing football to his best. We did exchange numbers so that the next time we do meet Wadoo gives me a interview readily. After Wadoo,i did manage to get many other footy lads including our captain Bhaichung Bhutia although the larger bulk still remains....but am sure it wont take me long to do them ;)
The new interest to learn more about the football players of India has made me understand that the game is not in that bad a shape as its made to look. But yes certainly there is a blockage and theres no denying that, a chat with Sunil Chetri later was mind blowing. Like me fellow sport journalist Dhruv calls him "quite the flirt(which i still have to experience) but a smart kid and knows what his talking" i found him prechy though.
All i know is my journey with Indian Football has just begun and its a long way to go. With so much to follow am sure its going to be a great match report to talk about. And yes, Wadoo is my obvious favourite right now for great looks and playing ability.
PS: Ladies and gentlemen please watch out for Natasha has entered the building.
