out with the in old with the new

talking about olden day thinking, andrea, drama and chicken pox.

and im not one for superstition.

but heres somethign interesting my master sergeant in NS

told me about when I told him I didnt sleep on Sunday night.
If you cant sleep well, there is a spider near your bed.
And i mean come on. Who believes that stuff..
But.. there it was. The little cobweb on the top left corner of my bed.
Tiny fellow. I wont say it gave me the chills cause it
really is not that surprising, or that big a coincidence.


but it did give me something to think about.



"If you cant sleep, look around your bed. There is probably a spider
hiding somewhere there. could be any size. but it will be there.
Once you clear the spider, you'll be able to sleep already."

And Song Lyrics these days. really reflecting the new(MODERN??)
world we live in.
I dont know why. Lyrics like this.





"My life would suck without you"
My Life would suck without you by Kelly Clarkson



"If you text it I'll delete it, Lets be Clear"
The 7 things I hate about you by Miley Cirus



I mean. all these modern day references to texting,
and all these slang terms like "suck" appearing in the freaking title.
Its leaving me unsure.



Has their time really come? Or are they forcefully using these words
and terms to try and prove just how young and hip they are?

Or am I thinking too much?
haha. the ever present final option by all questions asked by rishik.

Breakfast at mifa's was sweet.
Love the Dark Knight man.



But not the same way I love 'Little Miss Sunshine'.

Like I can actually watch Dark Knight a few times.
whereas Im so obsessively in love with Little Miss Sunshine
I feel a weird need to ration out the number of times I watch it.
And also caue its infinitely sad, and I cant keep letting art
make me feel that way.


hmm. maybe ill geta dark knight poster for my room. justa thought.




so Im done for the day. gnight.

And in the history of my blog.
I have never done this before.
Post up lyrics of other people.
But what the heck. I like this song.
"Slow Down" by Academy Is


Close the door and take the stairs.
Up or down?
Ups and downs.
Don't pretend you've never been there.
You kiss me like an overdramatic actor who's starving for work,
with one last shot to make it happen.
You've won the role, you've played your part, you've been cordially invited.
But I'm not impressed, and I'm definitely not excited.
'Cause the film runs a shallow budget,
and the writer's subject script isn't any deeper.
So dive right in...


Hollywood hills and suburban thrills,
hey you, who are you kidding?
I'm not like them. I won't buy in.
Hollywood hills and suburban thrills,
hey you, who are you kidding?
Don't quit 'til 47.
Then we'll turn it up and we'll play a little faster.

[Chorus:]
Take back everything you ever said.
You never meant a word of it. You never did.
Take back everything you said.You never meant a word of it.
You never did.


She said 'Alright, Alright, slow down!"
Oh no, oh no, we won't.
'Cause I regret every thing that I said
To ever make her feel like she was something special,
Or that she ever really mattered.
Or did she ever really matter?


Hollywood hills and suburban thrills,
hey you, who are you kidding?
I'm not like them. I won't buy in.
Hollywood hills and suburban thrills,
just don't count on this summer.
Don't quit 'til 47.
Then we'll turn it up and we'll play a little faster.

[Chorus]

I'm not saying that I'm not breaking some hearts tonight, girl.
Oh...I'm not saying that I'm not breaking some hearts tonight, girl.


Alright, alright, slow down...
[Chorus]

Hollywood hills and suburban thrills,
hey you, who are you kidding?
I'm not like them. I won't buy in.[x3 to fade]

awesomeness

What i love the most about my group of friends and our gatherings.


the talking.


Sigh. Just dont let it stop. not for a moment.
and when there is silence its always a happy calm.


i wanna hear their stories
dreams
mis-adventures, philosophical theories,
plans of action, jokes, reviews of the latest movies,
opinions about ex-teachers, gossips,
discoveries, just keep the tales coming
and the conversation rolling.

"were coming home again" Green Day

the Movie Slumdog Millionaire is really a feel good movie. About luck and destiny and victory against the odds. and I love the movie.
Such a simply beautiful work of art.

But the book. wow. THAT tale. I cant even begin to break it down. Genius in the way, the whole while you presume its a similar tale of luck. But the twist at the end changes the entire paradigm of the book. And suddenly it becomes clear luck had very little to do with it. This was a tale of destiny and making your own life. and thats what I loved most about it. It wasnt about achieving the victory. He had already won from the start of the book. It was about how you can make your own life, and control your own faith. That was what Q & A was really about.

and i really like that theme so much. the idea of self control.
I think maybe thats why I love the song "Handlebars". Its about the possibilities that open up from within. About what can be achieved even without outside help.

Anyways im off.

the short history of writing

Its come to my attention, that I no longer feel a need to write poems.
And its not a bad thing at all. No..

Its very easy to understand, once you know my personal history
and how i even got started with writing.

Itall has to do with st pats.
Beause the sad truth is, as english-speaking as the place may be
my entire time there, I had almost zero creative outlet.

When people asked what cca i wanted to join, i said without
thinking, ELDDS. Young stupid 13 year old. No idea that there
was NO ELDDS at that time!! I was heartbroken.
But not to fear. There was still lit at that time

Lower sec, I lapped up all there was to learn about literature.
It wasnt a science of disecting language. To me it was just one thing,
plain and simple.
A chance to enter another world: one of culture and poise, and education.
A chance to appreciate writing, and be caught up in the moment.

Lo and Behold. St pats did me another great favour by
NOT offering lit to upper sec. to ANY CLASS.

Zit. No Class. Science. Arts. It was.. a loss cause.
I would never get to know lit again. So off I went to sec 3e1
and that was more or less when it really started.

The secret writing, the scribbles, the only outlet and form of
expression i vaguely had.
It was weak in every sense. structure, vocab, meaning.

But it was what i clung to. It was my escape. Its all I had between
prefect meetings, and scouts, and lessons.
It was pathetic, but it was reason enough to keep my faith in the arts.
The fact that it made me that much happier.
That it gave me that much more faith in myself to achieve the vision
that Mrs Nelly Leslie set for us at the start of 2005
"To Become Cultured Young Men of Poise, Pride and Passion".
It became a part of me.


To cut the long story short.. Things changed.
Not drastically. Not overnight.
But over time they did.

I was exposed to real literature, in every form in JC:
movies, music, novels, poems. Real art.
I truly understand beauty.
My dream came true (and I fucking swear, this had been my
DREAM in the most literal sense, since I was a kid)
to actually act in a production.
And yeaah. I got what i wanted.
I got to appreciate beauty. taste it feel it love it live it.
I got the experience I had been deprived the bulk of my teenage life.


and now im happy. Satisfied. I dont have to write anymore
to feel the same joy. I am actuallyt truly content that
now I know good writers and artists out there.

and thats all I really wanted in the end.

Another random thought


clubbing attire geared for moshing rather than dancing?
You know where your heart really lies.
