Cupid Radio Inc.

I have been bashing Odie left and right through this blog. Make no mistake he is one of my best friends and the same goes to his darling too. I had decided to make it up to him for 'blogbusing' him and I had a bell ringing in my brains to do so. Darling was scared to take any gifts as she was afraid to take it home and so she had told not to give her any gifts. The dude was feeling pretty empty without giving a gift. I was recording some sounds in my mobile. Its not an expensive set and you can record small voice reminders upto 19 seconds. I recorded the Beatles song "When i am sixtyfour". Some lines that I loved. Then I had this notion of sending it an MMS to Odie so that he could sent to Darling. But his set has no MMS support and her set is also the same.(Nokia 2600 sucks! LG 2050 Rulz!) So we were stuck. I had listened to radio dum dum a while back and I had this idea of hosting a radio station so that Odie could recite his Valentines Day message followed by a song dedication. I read upon how to make a shoutcast radio station and we tested it that night itself. I told him to record his message and sent it over.
I went to his place the next day and tried to set the same in his house, so he could say anything without me hearing it. But some problems and he didnt mind me hearing his message. After all I have suffered a lot in the middle of their saccharine talks!
But as the day neared disaster struck! The day in which Odie was to record some inexplicable causes made the recording of his sound impossible. So we decided just the song would do. I told him to tell her goodbye on 13th late night and go invisible. The idiot screwed that up but again Rockus saved the day. By 12 I sent her the playlist and made her listen.
He had chosen the right song. "Nothing gonna change my love for you" by Glen Medieros. He came back visible and the couple shared (must have!) some initimate virtual kissing and hugging (they did not respond to yours cupidly for a while!) and I played my dedication after that "I am a believer" by The Monkees. This song always reminded me of Odie and he too remarked that.
The day thus started pretty well.
I did my presentation pretty decently. May be the blessing of a lovestruck couple...

Nothing gonna change my love

If I had to live my life without you near me
The days would all be empty
The nights would seem so long
With you I see forever oh so clearly
I might have been in love before
But it never felt this strong
Our dreams are young and we both know
They'll take us where we want to go
Hold me now, touch me now
I don't want to live without you

Nothing's gonna change my love for you
You ought to know by now how much I love you
One thing you can be sure of
I'll never ask for more than your love
Nothing's gonna change my love for you
You ought to know by now how much I love you
The world may change my whole life through
But nothing's gonna change my love for you

If the road ahead is not so easy
Our love will lead a way for us
Like a guiding star
I'll be there for you if you should need me
You don't have to change a thing
I love you just the way you are
So come with me and share the view
I'll help you see forever too
Hold me now, touch me now
I don't want to live without you

I am a believer

I thought love was only true in fairy tales
Meant for someone else but not for me.
Love was out to get me
That's the was it seemed.
Disappointment haunted all my dreams.

Then I saw her face, now I'm a believer
Not a trace of doubt in my mind.
I'm in love, I'm a believer!
I couldn't leave her if I tried.

I thought love was more or less a given thing,
Seems the more I gave the less I got.
What's the use in tryin'?
All you get is pain.
When I needed sunshine I got rain.

Then I saw her face, now I'm a believer
Not a trace of doubt in my mind.
I'm in love, I'm a believer!
I couldn't leave her if I tried.

So the Cupid Says Ciao!

Scholarship!

Found this is Friday Five and liked it. 1. If you were to have a scholarship created in your honor, what qualities would you look for in applicants (leadership, service, GPA, etc.)? GPA is bullshit. People with high GPA can be both muggers and geniuses. There can be people with no real "definitive talent" having a high GPA. Also, some can be flatout arses with no regard for the society. I would never create a scholarship in terms of GPA. Service is paramount. IQ and EQ both are equally important. Abstract thought counts. Creativity would be a defining factor. Enthusiasm is a must. There will be personal interviews. 2. Who would be eligible to apply for your scholarship (members of a certain major, ethnic group, sexuality, etc.)? No discrimination except there would be a weightage given to economically disadvantaged. Their need would be greater than that of a well to do kid. 3. Would it be need-based or not? Why? Need-based is contentious. Whose need? Some may need the money ...

The End...

This is the final post in this blog. Nearly five years ago, I started this blog from an Internet Cafe. 5 years on, the blog has probably chronicled my state of being. The triumphs, losses, disappointments et al. All this while, I have been experimenting with lot of things and even tried to switch the blog multiple times. This time the switch is for real. I want a fresh start without the baggage. You could even say I am a little inspired by Up in the Air. I don't really have an ETA for a new blog. I could start posting today, tomorrow, or never. Go to: Idle thoughts and update your references. See you out there! Signing off with these words from Jim Morrison: This is the end Beautiful friend This is the end My only friend, the end Of our elaborate plans, the end Of everything that stands, the end No safety or surprise, the end I'll never look into your eyes...again Can you picture what will be So limitless and free Desperately in need...of some...stranger's...
