Clyde's Law
If you have something to do, and put it off long enough, chances are that someone else will do it for you.
Too many things happening in too short a time.
Its as if life is speeding by these few days, leaving just very little breathing space to even blog.
- Saw Spiderman 2. Amazing movie. It really hit the Sentimental note a lot this time; it also focuses on how the hero of Spiderman has to cope up with real life issues such as college, job, money and girlfriend. The icing on the cake is of course the amazing camera work and graphics.
- Had a whale of a time in the weekend. Went to Maayajaal with friends (where I saw Spiderman 2) followed by a boat ride at nearby Muthukadu, followed by a lovely evening spent at an very isolated section of the beach on ECR and finally ending by a dinner at Elliots beach with family and friends. Just a break that I needed. (Imagine driving at a 100 on the ECR at nite with Yakkai Thiri blasting on the background).
- Just recently got a Sony DVD player. After watching the classic Home-Alones, I switced over to the more mature Comedy in Julia Roberts; classics including My Best Friends Wedding, Runaway Bride, Pretty Woman. Truly hilarious. I will soon top it up with Lord of the Rings and the Matrix trilogies.
- Finished reading God of Small Things. An opine: It is a comples story of a complex family with this huge complex. While the entire story revolving around the reactions of a family about an affair between a Touchable and an Untouchable told as such would have made it ordinarily plain, the style of writing, the mastery over metaphors and similies and the sentence construction, the constant time-shift between the past and the present in a very fluid manner makes it an amazing reading. It was because of the very same reasons that I had had to give up twice before, before even reaching the second chapter.Thank god for boredom which made me pick this book (which I had had for 4 years)
- Registered myself for the World Cyber Games prelims for NFS Underground and UT 2004. Starting tomorrow. I know that it is going to be very difficult, but I just want to have some fun at multiplayer gaming.
- My Convocation is on the Friday, with the Rehearsel on Thursday. Getting excited. This is probably going to be the last time I am going to be seeing all my College friends too.
- Finally, the packing part is about 90% done. Just a few minor things more. And everything I am taking seems to fit comfortably within the 64 Kg and the 2 suitcase limit.
