its the end of May.
Was just hearing The Scientist by Coldplay.
Oh fuck...!!!!!
One of the reasons why music is not just sound or a bunch of notes and chords but much more than that .
The song has a hummable melody, the structure is not too complex,the drums and guitars are simple yet equally significant,the lyrics are not too out there yet they convey so much more than what one reads off the internet or the album cover.
It surely is not a rock anthem,and that's probably not even what it's meant to be,that's what makes it what it is.
How wonderful is it when you just don't listen to the song but actually Hear it. Experience it.When the song becomes a part of you because it conjures up memories within you that you knew always existed but never thought about it unless something comes along and forces you to go back and trace back those memories. Don't know why but this song reminds me of this Jim Carrey movie "The Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind".
When you think about how your life was and how your life should have been,and suddenly you open your eyes and snap out of it.....
and think
How the fuck did I manage to screw up that bad ?

FACT # 1
Well i just realized that i didn't write anything in the month of March which is sad because i broke my streak (i had at least 1 post for every month since i started blogging) so i will have to compensate for it.
Still don't have much to write about
*We didn't go for manipal fest :(
*College is almost over :(
*Dunno whats next...?????
Life's been alright,thinking about stuff,loads of stuff,have been having self doubts,realizing stuff,trying to figure out where i stand,where i belong....followed by loads of whats.hows,whys and whens have been orbiting my head like unstable electrons.
I always thought life was like this big puzzle like the ones we used to make when we were around 3 or 5 yrs old...i still think so,but the difference is that, now,some of the pieces seem to be lost and misplaced.
Only if i could find them somehow,only if....i could complete my puzzle.....only if...
i realize i am just uselessly ranting as usual and being as random as ever but cant help it...
i am pretty sure nobody reads this shit no more (not that people used to read it earlier )
lastly
Things change,circumstances change,people change and then they DIE...FACE IT....!!!!

* Slumdog millionaire, the movie got 8 oscars (total of around 108 awards till now)
*Dev D was an absolute treat to watch,what an excellent movie and the music was mindblowing too
* Went to South Asian Bands festival '09 and saw agnee perform live which was simply awesome
* College is almost over (no sign of internship,post graduation or the most awaited trip to Goa)
* Life is Random,confusing,boring and more boring (i have mentioned that earlier too, i guess )

2009....Whats the Big Deal ....!!!!!
Another year gone by...and things are still the same.Sometimes i don't get it, Whats the concept behind celebrating an year gone by and another new year which lies ahead of us...Its not like a new start or a new beginning to life...its continuing the same old life...doing the grind everyday...facing old situations, consequences,people...i mean everything is exactly the same except the date may be....
I am not being pessimistic or cynical here but i don't see no practical reason behind celebrating the new year except maybe as an excuse to party.
Its that time of the year where lots of people make resolutions to make their lives a little better...which 99% are unrealistic hence are forgotten and remain unfulfilled.All predictions,horoscopes,tarrot cards related business gets a major boom but after all this guess what, your life still remains the same(.....surprise....!!!!!!)
The new year only indicates that its time for the republic day parade again,valentines day again,birthdays again,summers, monsoon, winters again and before you know it you are either six feet under or blown away to ashes.
Accept it or stay in a Fool's Paradise forever....
You are free to differ with me but guess what so am I
Cheers

Late @ Nyt
Believe you me, there is something truly mystical and magical about the "Night time"....dunno exactly what is it that makes it so...but something certainly makes me feel so...By Nightime i am actually refering to the 1 a.m. and beyond (til 4:30 a.m. or so)....May be its the silence that makes you at peace with yourself...as this time makes you think about yourself and the things around you which you can never get to do during daytime...Lazy Sunday Afternoons being no exception to this...The daily hustle bustle and noise just drowns down the things which truly matter to you and at night these things just instantaneously pop up just like the pop ups in your comp.
Its a different matter all together if you are a morning person or if you sleep at 10.00 p.m. sharp everyday and plan to do so for the rest of your life.
One might argue that (in majority) its the daytime when most of the daily activities take place, like going to office/college/school,hanging around with friends,going on dates,etc...but my point being its actually the night which makes us remember and cherish all these memories and experiences...night is the time when we think about these same situations which often brings a tear. a sigh or mostly smile on our face.
Night time also has beautiful and unique memories of its own kind like secretly smoking in the bathroom,watching movies at night (both adult/regular),late night senti talks with your girlfriend/boyfriend and the list is endless.....
all these memories have their own special charm
At a certain level its beyond words and has to be just felt...
Cheers...
