Mulsifid

You may be wondering what in the world “Mulsifid” is. It is similar [spelling wise] to ‘emulsified’, yet when I made up this word in 2004; ‘emulsified’ was not even in my vocabulary. Well it actually was but it relates more to the Chemistry subject and therefore I chose to push it out of my mind.

The Founding of “Mulsifid”

It was a hot sunny day, (date unknown but in 2004) and I was stuck inside the class. I’m not sure if it was Chemistry, or Dhivehi or some other stupid subject I was forced to study, but I had my sweet little Barefoot diary (date will be known when I look into this little book) on my desk and kept on furiously scribbling utter nonsense into it.

“… a notch higher to the 70th Armenian Mulsifid.” Was what I wrote in one of the 3 little pieces that starts with an “Om…”. (Those 3 little pieces will be posted here too). While writing these pieces, I imagine those Indian dudes with long white beards that sit cross-legged with the middle finger and thumb touching each other saying “Om…” and meditating. Those of you who have watched ‘Goodness Gracious Me!’ would know exa-cata-caly [exactly] what I’m talking about.


And so, there we have it, how “Mulsifid” came to be.
