Various Thoughts!

Thought 1:
Today i was with my grandma, accompanying her through her daily dose of mega-serials. These serials i say are pure junk. U can call it family pornography. The story lines contain enough sleaze, turns and twists like twisters themselves.

Thought 2:
I have a Trip to north coming up. I had booked my return tickets, which later on casual introspection i found were booked in the wrong route. Now i am thinking whether to re-book or take a train back. Train wud save me money.

Thought 3:
Seen the Chamakh Challo Song?? Kareena looks oh-so-beautiful and She is one actor with pretty good acting skills. And She now tops my list of the most beautiful bollywood actress.

Thought 4:
I am finding the dilbara song from Ra One pretty addictive. Decent lyrics, great sound and pretty good music. How do i transfer it to my mobile?

Thought 5:
Actually today's 'The Hindu' carries an article about two ladies who cycled all the way through the ancient silk route to India. I am totally amazed by their feat and it is something i would love to do someday. Their website carries more details http://www.cyclingsilk.com/. Gutsy ladies.

Thought 6:
I have bought a nikon D5100 yesterday. Though i have enough experience using a camera, this one comes to me as a bit difficult to handle. I am in the process of learning the controls now. I am impressed by the image quality and when all the controls and my guess worked, those photos have come out to be pretty good. Something which i could not achieve using my older cam. Obviously SLR is different from a point and shoot, still i am amazed.

Thought 7:
If u have read through till here, thank you. Actually it is long since i blogged or rather say thought that i have a blog. So i thought now that i have found a dormant blog of mine, i would blog on something. Nothing good came to mind and all i could do was to map a few of my thoughts.

Thought 8:
Food.

Chao!

Mere Mumblings

Today i recieved a five year user badge in Orkut and i am amazed at the way time has zoomed past. I, after a long time plunged myself into facebook and after an hour of jumping from profiles, queuing up umpteen number of profiles in different tabs, i find most females from school and college have got married or are atleast in a relationship or are engaged. Few guys too have joined the marriage bandwagon and all this makes me feel OLD.
Most of the guys have grown fat, a few have gone the gym way, and among the females a few of them, who were ugly then, to whom i paid zero attention, look mind-blowing now :( and some of the then beauties have got themselves idiot looking guys for company :( :( :D. (What would life be without emoticons, they convey so much, without any effort).

And as i think, a glance to the nearby clock says its 3 am and I should be sleeping.

• For those with ideas of taking a 3g connection, do study the latest offers of operators, feedback's and go for the operator with the right speed and cost balance. If you find one, do let me know. My BSNL is slow at times and i am too lazy to read and find a better one.

Gush Nyt!

Seniors-Movie Review

A hot hot Sunday afternoon and what better way to relax than to go for a movie. Whatever be the content of the movie, its the AC that's relaxing. I reached the theater after a bad bad exam and caught up with Junior and JJ at the theater. There were six of us, unfortunately we got only 4 tickets. The first four opportunists and that included me, got in. Out of the two left, Sam, uninterested from the beginning, happily left and other guy Mr.B, obviously felt bad at us getting in, and gave us a doze of his mind. I took a major part of that firing.

Seniors, starring Jayaram, Bobban Kunchako, Biju Menon and Manoj K Jayan in the lead roles, has been running to packed houses for the past one week and today was no different.
Although Seniors, is yet another masala college flick, it has neat comic moments and very a decent plot. Given the kind of movies that are getting released, this one's better and deserved the crowd.

The movie is about Jayaram(Padamanabhan alias Pappu) who after serving a term in prison( for murder of a college mate)comes to meet his close friends from college, Kunchanko Bobban, Biju Menon and Manoj K Jayan. He convinces them to accompany him to college and they together enroll themselves. At college,they get thrown out of class, get into fights, make fun at the college arts festival, break into the ladies hostel, creating funny situations. In the meanwhile, Jayaram tries to find who the real killer is(Yep, he was not guilty then). The movie treads a semi-thriller line and ends in the happily ever after style.
I felt a few scenes in the movie were overdone, and the logic a bit difficult to digest. Apart from that, the movie is a fun watch. Biju Menon stands out with his performance. The rest are good too and there is Suraj providing that additional bit. Overall, a decent movie, very watchable.

Thats all. I is off!

:(

3.30 in the morning is not the best time to be feeling :(, but the way arsenal lost to barca, i cant help it.
Barcelona were the much better team today, but the fact that they were helped by a partial umpire referee cannot be ignored. What else can be construed of the van persie sending off. Van persie broke free off his marker, got flagged offside,the signal given, but he continued, had an attempt at goal and was booked for the second time for dissent. Van persie's body language clearly suggested he was unaware of the call, and this all happened so fast that i can guarantee that even a few barca players themselves were'nt aware of the call, neither was their keeper. What a fucking moronic blind referee. We had to fend ourselves against a raging barca for the next 40 minutes with 10men. No positives to be carried away from this game. Diaby was an absolute waste, so was fabregas, whose back heel at the wrong place at the fag end of the first half led to the first goal. Nasri worked hard, Jack Wilshere , Koscielny, Djourou, Clichy were the better performers. Alumunia played most of the game as our 1st choice goal keeper with a hard to spell, harder to pronounce name got himself injured in the most mysterious of circumstances.

Leaving football aside, with March, has arrived the heat. Sweltering, energy zapping heat. The thought that it will go on at least till the first week of june, makes for another :(. The best thing about this season would be the mangoes. Sweet Juicy Ripe Ones, the sour unripe ones in chutneys and pickles, to be eaten raw with salt,the mere thought is mouth watering.

Time to hit the crib, so much for today.
SHIT HAPPENS.
Fuck U Barca.
Chao!!
