About Me
- Selma Mirza
- We're funny people. We want to belong to communities, make friends, and yet stay away and keep a safety margin. We want to talk about ourselves, and yet don't want to talk a whole lot about ourselves lest we disclose too much information. Its strange how we all want to reach out and be reached out for, and yet hide at unreachable places, far and beyond anybody's reach. Sometimes I do feel lost. In this world of fast moving cars, fast changing beliefs and faster changing people, I feel lost. The world is becoming smaller they say. It may shrink down to the size of a pea, but we will all still be alone. // I love water, I am water, when I stagnate I reflect, when I let go I flow away. I love sand, I am everything you want me to be. A ship, a castle, a message for a lover. And yet when forced I crumble into sand again. I get washed by the sea, I traverse oceans and distances looking for another story in my head. // more

Haven't been here in a little while, but I stopped by today and Whoa! - there's a name and a face associated with you now.
What made you drop the veil of anonymity?
200th post on 6-6-06 saying "Hello world" as thyself. Some occasion that! Welcome Salma.
Hey Selma... glad to actually put a face and name to a blog! You pretty pretty girl - why would you hide behind a mask?! :)
Congrats ! brilliant work and looking forward to more from you ! Freaked on the photo - super ! Goodbye Evenstar and welcome Selma ?
nice so thts u..! i'm jus a wee bit sad though.. kinda liked evenstar..
and when u dropped your anonymity u dropped it all the way.. not only your name.. but your face, your identity too. What brought such a radical change i wonder (considering what you had told me some time back??)
Hello! So the anonymity comes off! :)
yoo!! congrats on the 200th post.. so hows stuff reg. US coming along?? visa?? univ u already decided right.. amherst??

A good time to say hello to the world evenstar. How does it feel to shed the cover of anonymity? Do you feel strong and courageous and scared? I find the prospect scary, but I think you were ready... All the best!!
n
nothing to say ?? means you have lot to say .. waiting
is it like in the movie, amelie reveals herself only at the end and the poor guy keeps wondering who this enigmatic girl is who leaves clues for him. have u met someone special hmmm uhuhh ;)
Silence is perhaps the most apt response to momentous things.
Aieeee main kahaan aa gaya.....wheres's zorrino???? Yeh kaun hai??? Who has usurped her identity???? Kutte kamine tera khoon pi jaoonga...himmat hai to bahaar nikal saale!!
oops..waitamin...is it YOU? Nice to see u coming out of purdah. Wonder why u hid in the first place :) Congrats on ur 200th post (even if its nothing :( )

200 :erk: salut omgd
@ MockTurtle
Nice to have you back, I was wondering where you were. No posts at all? :-( I grew tired of writing as Evenstar. I missed my name. Then this blog has nothing personal on it, so I got nothing to hide.
@ bharat
Yaay Did you catch Omen? It didn't even look scary with that kid swinging and swinging. Somebody needs to tell them swings aren't scary, name changes are! :-O And umm... Selma with an 'e' :-)
@ qs.gemini
Gemini, I did this to protect my privacy. Until I realised I wrote nothing personal here at all...
@ Bombay Addict
And you knew both, Evenstar and Selma in person, long before the change.
@ xeonX
Exactly how I feel too. Yesterday I was thinking about it on my way back in the train. Its not that I'm not Evenstar anymore. I will always be that in my heart :-)
@ pragni
That is me Pragni, extreme changes, 180 degrees mood swings. But this is a well thought over decision. There is nothing personal on this blog. And with comment moderation, which I might add later, everything should be just perfect.
@ Grey Shades
And so effortlessly. Planning to come my way, Grey Shades?
@ VC Man
Pehle you tell me, why the anonymous comments? And why don't you update anymore?
@ n
I feel a little vulnerable, honestly. But I will get over it :-)
@ Hazel Dream
Yes, quite a few posts lined up. But more pictures than words *sigh*.
@ anish
Yes, I guess in a way it is like Amelie :-) Anish, if I do have someone special, I'll keep him far far away from the Blogosphere. Especially after I dropped the anonymity.
@ Indianarchie
Zorrino has stopped being Zorrino. The black robe waits for another day.
@ Mitesh
You encouraged me to drop it, thank you :-)
@ Emerald fields
hahaha. erk, erk, erk, sir!
a bit late to come back...
never the less...
Well done on 200 n still going...cool post!
