TZP Effect...

If u havent watched Taare Zameen Par, then the first thing you should do is go watch it....

The Man from Earth

Happened to watch this movie "Jerome Bixby's Man from Earth" yesterday in office. Initially I was lil doubtful as to whether I should continue watching the movie, but then as the movie went on I found myself deeply involved, sitting at the edge of my chair, waiting for the next dialog. This movie, shot mostly in a single room with 8 characters without any hi-fi visual effects and whatnot, is undoubtedly one of the most intelligent and thought provoking movies I've watched.

The movie leaves you with an experience that cannot be explained to another person; it has to be experienced personally. I never happened to write a post on a movie, but this movie is quite different. I want people to watch this movie and feel it.

You can find more about the movie here, but I strongly recommend not to read it now. Go experience the movie and be a part of Prof. John Oldman's farewell meet.

What do I name this post?!

It's been one and half months since I've done anything useful in office. Since early December my routine has changed a lot. I come at sharp 10 to office (its compulsory for us to be in office by 10), and spend time till 10.45 in the cafeteria. Till 12.30 it will be gmail, orkut, chatting, songs, youtube and what not. Time for lunch! Come back at 2.00 and then repeat the same with a cafeteria break of 1 hour in between; and leave for home whenever I feel like leaving after 6. I tell you with all the experience, its really difficult to be without work. At times I feel that being overloaded with work is quite better...

For quite somedays in between I had a break from this schedule as I was asked to participate in the inter division Fashion show competition (or fancy dress competition with a theme :P) conducted by our office people for the annual day celebrations. All in all it was fun.


Also I've been to Pune and had a blast with all my dear friends over there. I also got a chance over there to unleash my archery skills. Who knows, may be I'm Mr. Paartha in my previous life :P

Know wat, these days I'm in search of good places around Bangalore so that we can go biking in the weekends. I found a blog on one Devarayanadurga. The place looks awesome. Hope to go there very soon.


This weekend we are going to Nandi Hills, nearest peaks to Bangaloreans famous as summer resort of Tippu Sulthan. Shall update more about these places, with photographs, after I visit them.

And yesterday night I saw the fire department and the police people together recovering the body of a person who committed suicide by hanging himself. That poor guy jumped from the top of the K. R. Puram suspension bridge with a noose around his neck. Whatever be the reasons for which he has committed suicide, may his sole rest in peace and may all his problems be solved so that his family members can live in peace.

Boredom

I want to be a part of laughter and excited chatter; I want to let it wash me, bringing calmness as I catch my breathe and settle in. But I'm all alone.

I want to rest in a sandy beach leaning against a palm tree; I want to tumble into sleep listening to the lullaby of waves against the beach. Phew, I'm in Bangalore.

But this is it. For now, I'll just remember the good times. And for now I'll listen to some music, close my eyes and wait for the middle of the day to pass.
