I`ve been watching too much of sports, that I started wondering, the stars` faces were familiar. Here are my findings. But they just may not be accurate.




Depp and nadal! Might not be very obvious.



Wayne Rooney and Mark Boucher. Mark boucher should have a hari cut for the rooney look!



Federer and Quentin Tarantino. Awesome resemblance!

Rock Bottom Laziness!

Thanks to thou, who was kind enough to lend me his guitar. Im looking forward to learn playing it. Actually, I`ve been looking into the internet for guitar lessons. But, its never as good as the real stuff. But, anyways, thanks for the guitar man! I really appreciate it!

There has been a lot of rock shows, going on around. In, chennai, there has been rock shows going on in YMCA grounds for the past one week. Edo, had tickets for a last week show, and he had asked me to come. I actually, wanted to go with the guys, and have fun. But, ended up not goin. 2 reasons!
1. Sometimes, you like a person, and u like everything that person likes and hate everything that person hates. On the other hand, when you hate a person, you hate everything the person likes and like everything the person hates! Apparently, rock music is something which a person i hate, likes. So, I kinda learnt to hate rock music.
2. There was "the match"! Couldnt afford to miss it!

Thou, also asked me if, I could come to the Aerosmith show in Blore! And, again, Im not much into Aerosmith, though i respect those guys! So, ended up not goin!

Flashnews: Ram, couldnt move his ass, to join the tennis classes, eventhough, he really wants to join!

Untitled - ugh, i hate it!

I got an invite from a friend to join a community called flixter. It just asks for me to fill in my details. And, suddenly, on a screen i click "next" and the site itself collect contacts from my google account and send them invites. I find the community interesting, coz its all about movies. But, I dont want people joining it and cursing me to send the invite. And, By doing this, I also sent invites to some people I hate. And, the worst part is, they even joined. Its a pathetic feeling, really. Btw, I really have nothing to write, just scribbling something which comes into my mind.

The other day, went to a movie called chennai 600028. Good flick. A fun movie. It was hilarious. Its about cricket and they`ve taken the movie well. We had a good laugh. But mozhi was far better. Its a feel good movie. Every moment of the film, you feel, u had a life like that. Thats how a movie should be. Anyways, got nothing more to write. cya.

D`oh

I developed the 2 rolls today, which i took in yercaud. Very disappointed again. I experimented a lot and, one of the rolls wasnt good. So, some of the good pictures turned out to be bad. I hate it when this happens. Anyways. I`ll try and learn. some of the good ones, i`ve posted in the photoblog.

Yeah, its me!

Its been quite a while since I actually posted. But I have my reasons! No! Im lying. I`ve been in the so called "oppice" for the past week, ever since I came from goa. Oppice, is nothing but, vetti oppice. Its a place where we all sit in our homes doing nothing. Yeah, thats where I was, before and after the goa trip. So I have enough experience in the oppice. Thats enough of the oppice shit. Now the reason I am posting is, to avoid my nephew and niece, who are here for their summer vacation. My niece is an under aged brat, equally irritating, just because I gave her an extra attention when I was at her place. And my nephew, immature 15 year old. I often pity him. Maybe because the place they get their education. He gets a good 90% score in his school, but that aint enough.

I have been wanting to write the so called experiences in goa. It was a great trip. We all loved it. Goa is a photographer`s paradise. But for an amateur like me, it is disappointing when the pics dont come out well. But, yeah who cares? I do it for my satisfaction. We went to these deserted forts. It was hot, very hot there, especially in the forts, but it was worth it. WE visited the Champora and the Aguada forts. WE visited a number of beaches. We bsicaly did a lot of stuffs together. Fun, is the keyword. But goa is an expensive place. I spent a good 4 grand, excluding the travel expenses.

I have been reading a lot of blogs when I am at the oppice. I feel so down in the line wheni read some of them. Wow!, Man, I lack the feel when I write it. hmmm, again who cares? I write for my satisfaction.

My Pics :)

I`ve been taking pictures in my slr for some time now. The 1st roll which was already there in the camera... was expired and thus was a flop show. Today I developed another roll which has come up pretty well. I took the pictures mostly near my house and in the garden. Taking the camera to Goa now, will be back with another collection!

Visit my other blog to check out the pictures.

In Dino!

Watched 300 the day before. Bottom Line : Awesome visual effects! The guys` abs were too damn good. Shit mann! All the 300 guys had abs like that. They must be working out for a living! Then we stayed in Tho`s place for the night. Jus 3 of us. We watched the bad display of the south africans and playing Brian Lara`s cricket 2007. It was fun. We played till 5 in the morning and then hit the bed. I came back home, ate and slept again. Nowadays, the sleep constituting most of the time of my life.

Off late, I`ve been addicted to a particular song. Its called In Dino from a movie called Metro-life in a city. Its an awesome song. Ive spent a total of 2 hrs waiting for that song to be telecast on tv, untill i finally downloaded it. Its just a great song. And, I feel I am missing something in life. But, I guess I am absolutely happy now. I just love the way life is goin on now. But, nothing can last forever. So keeping my fingers crossed. Love you all! Just got nothing much to post about. :)

blah blah blah...

You want something? go get it! Period!

Thats a quote from persuit of happyness. And yeah of course i believe it. I also believe in another thing. I am responsible for everything I do! I am the only reason that I am happy now. I am the reason for all the problems I faced. And I herey take a oath that, I wouldn`t blame anyone else for what happens to me. Deep in the situation`s theory, im sure, I`ll be the reason for what that happens. There you go, that made me feel better.

I`ve been wierd for the past 4 months. I`ve developed an incredible self esteem. The "I am What I am!!" attitude. Maybe wrong, but thats the way I am now! I`ve become an extrovert. Its a drastic change. From a selfless moron with no self respect, asking infinite sorrys just to get rid of the issues even if i had not done anything, to a guy who boasts of what he is. Its practically huge. But, we learn in life. And the lessons urge us to take decisions and change us. For now, I can say Im happy of what I am and I`ll be happy forever.One lesson that i`ve learnt is, if you have a problem you deal with it. No one else in the whole world are in a state to help you!
Its got philosophical today! sigh... chow..

I`ve suddenly got this urge to blog everyday. And here I am! Its 1:45am and im sitting and typing. Today, or rather yesterday was good. Did nothing useful, but it was fun. Had to go out on a project work, and got it completed in a matter of time. Have been watching the match, WI vs NZ till now. WI are in a bad shape. and the black caps seem to be in good touch. I wish, SA or NZ to get the cup. Dunno what is gonna happen and who cares? India is out of the tournament.The thought of it haunts me. No more cricket talks!

What the hell am I supposed to write now?? I really cant think of anything. Its really different now. Absolutely no worries and not a thing to whine about. Truly happy! Even the most disappointing incidents, though irrepairable are gotten over and, now, i have to think of something to feel bad about and yet I dont find any! This is totally different. There is a considerable difference after the results at home too. Dad`s all enthusiastic and all. Its me who is trying to be a bit down, or am I? What I need is, a nice freak out session for another week. I wanna have real fun. but not enough plans!!

What the hell?? next challenge im gonna face is when I join work. Its gonna take a while untill that happens. Okay!! Ive done enough thinking of what to write next!! Thats that! cya!

So Near Yet So Far!

The topic absolutely makes no sense! But I was thinking of a lot of things that corresponds to that lil saying. I was waiting on my bike in the middle of a traffic jam.Had to go to a medical shop. It was abput 100 yards, but i cudnt go when i wanted to. See? that constitutes to "So Near Yet So Far!". Typically me aint it? Absolutely making no sense. To be honest, I`ve been thinking a lot of stuffs which constitutes the same thing.

Had a coupla exams today at college, It was so funny! It made absolutely no sense, for us to avoid the 150 bucks fine, we had to write the exams. Noe the new rule is that, if we get to fail we get to pay a fine of 100bucks. Thats absurdly funny! It is totally my wish to pass or fail in my exam. But, in our case, there is an understanding between the good staffs and us. They promised us, "write something in the paper, we`ll pass you, and you dont have to pay the fine" Goddamnit! We are too lucky! Every college should have good staffs like these to break the stupid rules that the college makes!

Its been quite a while since i`ve posted. Well, i actually was kind of busy. The day after the party, i slept all day.The next day that is on wednesday, we left for this place called pennadam, for a marriage. It was my cousin`s marriage. I really dont know her much, but had to go, coz I was the spare driver. It was my uncle who drove most of the time. Damn he was fast!! You shud see the look on dad`s face! And the better side is, I touched a 120 and dad dint say a word.

And about the party, monday night, it was fun. A whole lot of people were there. Had a nice swim, had pretty okay food and listened to music. And we talked, talked, talked and talked! Even after going to bed, me and suresh were blabbering for half an hour. Got up the next morning, had a great swim, tanned ourselves in the morning sun and listened to Rahman for 2 hours! Then we left, came back home and slept for the whole day.

Then about the trip to pennadam. I stayed in a house, typically of the village type. It was beautiful. And then the marriage. I really felt a pity for them, the couple. They dint even talk to each other. The girl(my cousin), looked like she seriously needed a shoulder to lie down and cry on. Poor female! And no one recognised me! Absolutely no one! I was like the dude of the village!

Then we went to this place called, vadalur. There was some carnival and it was the anniversary of a guy called Ramalinga Adigalar. I usually am not fascinated by going to temples on speacial days and worshipping them. But this guy, he has done nothing, except writing poems and doing yoga. This man lived 200 years ago and he is said to have vanished in thin air. And for this man, and on his death anniversary, there are literally lakhs of people coming to give their respect to him. What we apparently see is a burning camphor through a translucent glass. And believe me, there were atleat 1 lakh people witnessing it. I was really fascinated. I wish I cud go next year.

Today, we happened to go to a symposium at anna university. Its called abacus 2007. I laid my feet on all the competitions, but i did wat i do best! I put mockai! If you dont know what that means, its just pathetic jokes(pjs). Me and ma buddy, suresh showed our skills all over the prelims question paper and we were the 1st among the finalists! For an example, our team name was "Masala Dahi Aloo Sev Pani Puri"!! They had to announce it on stage! We have our finals tomoro, LOL! Its gonna be fun!

Nice one!

I found this in another blog... it was damn good...

Study this small story,
Hope that makes a BIG change in YOU


Professor began his class by holding up a glass with some water in it.
He held it up for all to see & asked the students
“How much do you think this glass weighs?”
'50gms!' .... '100gms!' .....'125gms'> ..the students answered.
“I really don't know unless I weigh it,” said the professor,
“but, my questionis:
What would happen if I held it up like this for a few minutes?”
'Nothing' …..the students said.
'Ok what would happen if I held it up like this for an hour?'
the professor asked.
'Your arm would begin to ache' said one of the student
“You're right, now what would happen if I held it for a day?”
“Your arm could go numb, you might have severe muscle stress
& paralysis &have to go to hospital for sure!”
….. ventured another student & all the students laughed
“Very good.
But during all this, did the weight of the glass change?”
asked the professor.
'No‘…. Was the answer.
“Then what caused the arm ache & the muscle stress?”
The students were puzzled.
“What should I do now to come out of pain?” asked professor again.
“Put the glass down!” said one of the students
“Exactly!” said the professor.
Life's problems are something like this.
Hold it for a few minutes in your head & they seem OK.
Think of them for a long time & they begin to ache.
Hold it even longer & they begin to paralyze you.
You will not be able to doanything.
It's important to think of the challenges or problems in your life,
but EVEN MORE IMPORTANT is
to ‘PUT THEM DOWN' at the end of every day beforeYou go to sleep.
That way, you are not stressed,
you wake up every day fresh &strong & canhandle any issue,
any challenge that comes your way!
So, When you leave office today,
Remember friend to'PUT THE GLASS DOWN TODAY! '

There wasnt much of a response for the previous post!hmmm.. OK! Now, I`ve achieved the realisation of the reality of life, and it took me 4, 25km drives! Yes! The distance I travel to my college. Its a nice, smooth and long highway and I think a lot during that drive. And something which was running in my mind for the past 2 days were cleared! Clearly, taking life in a positive sense, can result in wonders. My project 1st review just got over yesterday. We were prepared moderately and we said something to the panel! They tried asking us questions, but the ball was on our court! They absolutely had no idea what we were talkin about.

Ive been posting some short posts for the past week and it is going to continue. Im really bored at home and im quite desperate to get out every single day. And now, im working out! Im going to the aerobics classes. Finally! Im quite sure, i wont work out unless I pay for it! And its 650 bucks a month! Now, that doesnt matter much! What matters is, every single muscle in my body aches. Some of them, i`ve never known those parts even had muscles! Thats my success story for the time being.

How does it feel when you lost something forever in your life? Something which you have valued so much..

I need answers!!

Jobless...

Its the 3rd day in a row, that im staying home doing nothing. Bored to the extent that i sit and watch sun tv! I cant find a topic to post. The bsnl has introduced the faster internet, upto 2mbps. So doin some downloading. Downloaded one movie today. Its called, little miss sunshine. I should say, BEAuuutiful movie! Its about, how losing in one thing doesnt make the person a loser. Nicely taken and has a tint of good comedy, though it is rated as comedy. The feeling of downloading a movie and watching is very good. But i have to stay awake till 2am everyday rather night, to switch on the download. Gee, that sucks!

Yesterday was pongal/sankranti. Big deal! The festive mood was in the air. New movies in tamil channels. And, not to mention the awesome food. Ate nicely!! And today, is maatu pongal. Got a lot of birthday wishes since morning. Now, what did I do today; woke up by 10 in the morning, ate breakfast, saw tv, ate lunch, saw the movie and now sitting and blogging. Wasnt that productive?

Talking about festivals, I sure do think that, the families after 10 years aint gonna celebrate no festivals! Yeah, yeasterday, mom tried to wake me up and i successfully got up by 9! Me and her, got a sugarcane, which no one is gonna eat. She did some real good pongal and we ate. And not to forget, we did the "pooja". Now, it aint a girls name(blabber)! I used to, enthusiastically yell "pongalo pongal" when the rice boils and come out, way back, 15 years ago. And now, i dint even see it boil!! Things do change and, damn!! changes are happenning pretty fast!

jaage hain...

Obviously, jaage hain is the best song in the guru album.And it sounds all through the film. Yeah!! I saw the film and got my review of it!! Well here goes... I dint understand it.Well, forgive me, i dont know hindi and to add to the misery, abishek bachhan dint know english in the movie! Well, the performance is good. Okay!! they all were awesome!! Vidya balan gorgeous!! Madhavan cool( though i dont forgive him for the smooch)!! Abhishek... too good.Hes put on tummy to act in the older role.But thats no big deal. I can do that in like a week! And ash, i liked the older ash!! she looked more original in the older role!!And Oh My God!! Rajiv menon!! I swear to god, i`ve never seen such beautiful work in an indian movie. I got glued to the screen lot of times and the reason is Rajiv!!

Dad has been sick for a week and hes been in and out of the hospital and im glad i cud be of some help. Nothing much, i jus drove him around. Today, it just confirmed that there is nothing serious. Thank god. As Im saying that, i got a thumbs down for going for a movie!! Thats dad.

He never says NO! But he never says YES! He talks as if im having a hard time goin out. Yeah!! I got a job and ive got all the freedom i want!! I can say so! He doesnt control me and all, but it really is hard to ignore him and go ahead with my plans. Thats the way ive been raised. Ive been told to keep my parents as happy as i can by god knows who!!.Its just that as i grew, Ive seen more of them as unhappy people. Keeping them happy, certainly wasnt possible by me studying. So now and then or most of the time, when dad doesnt stop talking after me summoning the petition to go out, i drop the plans. But sometimes, i overrun those cribs and i end up feeling guilty the whole time!

Who Am i gonna do it for? I love my family and absolutely no one else! Love you ma and pa.

Common... Just gimme a hug!!

I`ve always argued with mom, how a hug makes you feel better. Its all in the succession of munna bhai method. Jus hug and make people feel better.I jus was browsing the other day and came accross this video in a site called free hugs. Theres a video in it and its good, as in i liked it.

The other highlight of this week is, i saw my cat score as soon as i came back from the trip.I was overwhelmed to see, the score. It was funny though. I got a 83.53%ile. Which is obviously not good, but thankfully not that bad. The whole point is that i cared a damn about the exam and look at the freaking results!! A good friend of mine, used all of his study holidays to prepare for this cat(as if i studied during the hols) and scored less than me. God!! I must be a genius(wink). Just imagining, how pissed he must be! Anyways, sorry buddy, i dint mean to hurt you(wink)! Anyways, it kind of too late now for doing mba. I feel its a bit foolish to let go of the job and go study again. And seriously, studying is surely not one of the things that i do best! Anyways, my parents are really interested in me doing mba right away. But theres serious thinking involved.

On the other hand, my project, with my buddy senthil, is still in stake. We havent decided on anything and we are way behind schedule! God save us. And the most pathetic thing is we are paying for the project(phew).Thats it for now!

Found It Finally...

Yup!!I found the place where i can forget everything i wanna forget!!It is the good ole sabari malai!! It was a tremendous trip and i was accompanied by my pal arun. He being a debutant was good. He did really well in walking and of course, he managed the ridiculous nature calls.I in the course of time have learnt to manage. Stupid things apart; now that ive found the ultimate place, it not possible for me to go there when i feel bad. For that matter, i have to walk 48kms all the way through 3-4 mountains to see the god(which is secondary) and have a peace of mind.So have to find a place somewhere near. Still on the quest!! ;)

And about the trip, The path through vandi periyar was the highlight. The best easily!!The Lord of the rings could have been shot here than in new zealand. So beautiful.It is only during this one month that people are allowed through this path. Its damn beautiful; i wish i had an slr cam. Okay! thats it for now.

cough cough... Kill me!!

Yeah!! For the past 4 to 5 days ive been coughing like a dog, dont mind to imagine how dogs cough!!Anyways, it feels like shit, when you have to cough all the time. My trachea is all hurt and i suppose it must be bleeding now, off the coughs!(cough)ts been some time since ive posted, the reason, one, i was off to chidambaram and two, i din find an appropriate topic(as if i got one now!!!!).Okay, to talk about chidambaram, i have to admit, i din do wat i wanted to do. I did spend some time at the temple, but it was too crowded. Had some okay time, watching the channels on tv, which we dont get here in chennai. Then sat in my cousins ice cream shop, for sometime. Time just flew by.Relatives asking me to eat every hour.That is what we call, anbu thollai!

Okay, a useless post it is alright!Anyways, too bad, nothing much happened in chidambaram for me to write here.I love the place and the temple. But, i went there on another mission, to think, to realise my value, to find myself and get myself on the road from no where.I guess i havent succeeded much on that. But, this dog will surely have its day! I`ll be waiting.It was always my dream to find a place where i can go when i feel low. Im in search of that place.Chidambaram natraja temple was a trial worth it.
