Sin and Sun...

Saw Sincity yesterday...
An outstanding movie...
Very violent...so was not cleared to show in India...
Based on graphic novel series (other name for comic books!) by Steve Miller...
I have been in possession of this for a while now...thought I would see it after reading the comic...
The film unfolds as a collection of stories in which the characters intersect...The film has stayed true to the comic to the maximum...
A thorughly enjoyable ride...I loved the story 'Violent Marv'...

Oh yeah the movie is shot in black and white with colour in specific regions..like red dress, lips, blood and the yellow body of the Yellow Bastard in the eponymous episode.
The backgrounds are digitally made and is a visual treat to say the least.
Great performances from all actors...I was pleasantly surprised to see Alexis Bledel (Rorie in the sitcom The Gilmore Girls) as a young whore.
If you can grab this, then its a must watch..provided you have the stomach for blood shed...
sincity-

Had my next two rounds of interview today...Something totally out of the blue...First one was great but the HR interview was bad...I believed I sucked...
The results will be out tomorrow..Lets see what happens!

?

ISRAEL
POPULATION: 7 million (less than half of Mumbai)
AREA SIZE: Less than that of Kerala
ACT OF VIOLENCE AGAINST IT: 2 soldiers kidnapped by Hezbolla, 1 by Hamas
RETALIATORY ACTION: war on Lebanon, 200 rockets fired the next day .

INDIA
POPULATION: 1 billion+
AREA SIZE: 6th largest in the world
ACT OF VIOLENCE AGAINST IT: 200+ dead in Mumbai blast, 8 in Kashmir
RETALIATORY ACTION: a soft speech by PM, Salute to mumbai people , clean chit for SIMI by UP CM

Proud! Proud of the ineptitude...
Just realised I have not been posting for a while. Can't put fingers to keyboard to blog to be frank...Pending work looms large as well. And a very small cause of concern...the university results...would be out within a couple of weeks...
Got through the technical interview for the job of a technical writer, now HR interview is scheduled sometime this week. Another thing to worry about...

So far...So blah!
Been downloading a lot of games recently...And playing also...thought I would make a listing of it...

International Cricket Captain 2006
This is a cricket management game. Addictive, if you are into cricket. The graphics positively sucks. The same as what it was in its 2000 avatar.

Sid Meir's Pirates
Aargh! Matey, this is one hell of a game. Remake of a classic game which I was totally in love with.
You are a pirate. Choose your home country. Grab a ship. Attack ships. Pillage towns. Romance with Governer's daughter(Dancing!). Rescue your family members. Avenge your family. Find treasures. Discover lost cities. Sword Fight!
A game that defies genre. An entry into my all time favourites!

The Movies (and expansion Stunts & Effects)
Start your studio. Make your movies. Release. Rake in money!
Simple isn't it?
Well, I wish it was...The movie making is absolutely cool. I made a sniper movie, a mushy romantic movie, several westerns, some alen movies, a weepy love story and oh yeah, a lesbian love story!
The last one was out of necessity due to the game mechanics. The management of your movie studio is hell. Micromanagement hell. So it detracts from the movie making aspect a lot. You can't get actors at right times. Your actors become burnt out. Imagine this, my lead romantic actress was 59 years old when she was acting in bath towels!!! Yuck!
A great game pulled down by micromanagement.
The expansion adds stuntmen who can do..well, stunts! Didn't play around with it as I had better stuff to do...

American McGee's Alice
A twisted Alice in Wonderland. Alice's parents die in a fire. Alice goes mad and is now in an asylum. She is in her teens now and very mad.
She is transported to Wonderland where all is not well. Queen has become draconian and wonderland is suffering. Alice has to save it and in the process save her self.
This is violent action game with lot of blood. Not for kids!
A genius stuff. The artwork are superb. Just take a look!

The chesire cat looks just ominous and Alice, the Butcher!
Alice

Chronicles of Riddick: Escape from Butcher Bay
A game of the hit movie. But the story is different. It is really good game. But lack of quick save sort of pulls me away from this game.
Action is good. Stealth is vital. Hand to hand combat is cool. Graphics are great.
But something tells me I am not going to finish this...

Halflife 2: Episode One
The episodic expansion to Halflife 2. An absolutely thrilling ride. Alyx, a sexy scientist babe, will be your sidekick all along. Don't get me started on her! :D
The graphics are mindblowing and some cool instances are there in the game. Like, in the beginning you go for a roller coaster ride on a car.
Must play! And I have to play original Halflife 2!

My babe...
alyx

Soon, going to play....

Anachronox
Dug it from deep ravines of torrent land. A great game which was a big flop. Will finish downloading today and will post stuff on it later.

Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic
A great rpg from Bioware. Watching Star Wars original trilogy. Will finish today with Return of the Jedi. And I want a tubelight! errr Light saber!
I hope my friend Fox has it.

Halflife 2
The greatest action game, period. Got stuck last time due to some AI trouble. I tried everything but couldn't get past it. The extra large game size is the only blockade...Riddick gone???

Ciao until next time...

Blogthings Return!

My Emotional Quotient

Your EQ is 140

50 or less: Thanks for answering honestly. Now get yourself a shrink, quick!
51-70: When it comes to understanding human emotions, you'd have better luck understanding Chinese.
71-90: You've got more emotional intelligence than the average frat boy. Barely.
91-110: You're average. It's easy to predict how you'll react to things. But anyone could have guessed that.
111-130: You usually have it going on emotionally, but roadblocks tend to land you on your butt.
131-150: You are remarkable when it comes to relating with others. Only the biggest losers get under your skin.
150+: Two possibilities - you've either out "Dr. Phil-ed" Dr. Phil... or you're a dirty liar.


Feeling Pretty Smug! :P
I wanted to do this and see. Had to get some introspection regarding my attitude to some people.

You Have Your Sarcastic Moments

While you're not sarcastic at all times, you definitely have a cynical edge.
In your opinion, not all people are annoying. Some are dead!
And although you do have your genuine moments, you can't help getting your zingers in.
Some people might be a little hurt by your sarcasm, but it's more likely they think you're hilarious.

Hmmm...I can be very sarcastic...but I keep a distance from hurting people...I think I have a decent track record in this!

You Are 36% Brutally Honest

Honesty is nice, but only when it's convenient. You rather be nice than honest.
You figure it's important to be honest about the big stuff, but little lies never hurt anyone!

Yeah baby!

I checked out the blogspot pages...
What I saw...

Princess Kimberley

Absolutely Nothing in here...Apart from the heading Princess Kimberley and a name Tony...
May be this is code...very suspicious
Blogger shows an unexpected error when the profile link is clicked...

Pajama Editors

A very weird blog...Nothing anti Indian as far as I saw...Anti leftism is there...
Could it be a secret code? Could be...some of the stuff can be deconstructed to mean terrorism...

Exposing the left

This one seems credible to be frank. I mean not objectionable. A sort of news blog to be frank...
One reference to India...‘‘At least 131 killed in India train bombings: More humanitarian acts from the ‘Religion of Peace’.’’

Sarcasm at its best!
Terrorism? No way!
And they have acknowledged the ban and posted on it too.
Check the article in Indian Express about this.
If bans are placed on this...then every blogger who writes with sarcasm and acid have stuff to worry about.

Common Folk Common Sense

This is very weird. A chinese or japanse blog. Can't say whether this is terrorism or anti India...

These are things I saw first hand. We can interpret anything and apply deconstruction to get any answer. But a ban has to be credible. Even if this is a temporary blackout...

The questions are why this ban?
Even if Government meant these 4, we have the right to know the reason.
And for what was this ban?
To block terrorists?
Guffaw! Anyone with a slight ability to Google Search can circumvent this easily...Just to irritate the public...That is all that was accomplished...And oh yeah reduce my mighty hit rate! :P

Shine on you crazy diamond...

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us

Remember when you were young, you shone like the sun.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
Now there's a look in your eyes, like black holes in the sky.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
You were caught on the crossfire of childhood and stardom,
blown on the steel breeze.
Come on you target for faraway laughter,
come on you stranger, you legend, you martyr, and shine!
You reached for the secret too soon, you cried for the moon.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
Threatened by shadows at night, and exposed in the light.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
Well you wore out your welcome with random precision,
rode on the steel breeze.
Come on you raver, you seer of visions,
come on you painter, you piper, you prisoner, and shine!

Syd Barret
Founder member Pink Floyd...Born January 6, 1946 Died July 7 2006

An eccentric genius. He was the Pink Floyd frontman and lead guitarist...
He made just one album with the Floyd. But that stands out as a brilliant composition, Pipers at the Dawn.
He is remembered not just for his compositions but the profound impact he had on his fellow band mates...especially his childhood friend Roger Waters...
Syd fell into the influence of LSD. The LSD overabuse led to his mental disintegration. It is said to have triggered some inherent mental disease.
His performance started dippind in stage shows and eventually he was replaced by his friend Dave Gilmour.
Syd then went on a break and started painting in his sparetime.
He did make a couple of solo albums which are pretty good. (I have just listened to one of them called Barrett, the first one was The Madcap Laughter)
But after 1972 he completely went on a recluse and faded out of picture...
His legacy was too big to fade though...

I became interested in Barrett after reading about an incident during the making of the album Wish you were here.

The album itself is a sort of tribute to Syd Barrett and the old comraderie in the band, which was now lost.
During the recording of the song Shine on You crazy Diamond. (S Y D!), a fully shaved obese man appeared in the studio.
No one recognised him, but suddenly they realised it was the mad Syd who somehow came in there. No contact for 7 years and he shows up when his song was to be recorded.
He looked very lost and started jumping up and down brushing his teeth. Seeing this Roger Waters burst into tears.
They sang the song for him and he left after that. No contact again...

This had a great impact on me...I felt a sharp sting in my heart due to this...

Syd Barrett lived his parents home along with his sister. He disliked any contact from his past. He is said to have died from complications arising due to Diabetes.

His songs had a vivid imagery...a poetic painting...simple words with a childlike quality in them...
Check out the lyrics of his song...
See Emily Play

Emily tries but misunderstands, ah ooh
She often inclined to borrow somebody's dreams till tomorrow
There is no other day
Let's try it another way
You'll lose your mind and play
Free games for may
See Emily play
Soon after dark Emily cries, ah ooh
Gazing through trees in sorrow hardly a sound till tomorrow
There is no other day
Let's try it another way
You'll lose your mind and play
Free games for may
See Emily play
Put on a gown that touches the ground, ah ooh
Float on a river forever and ever, Emily
There is no other day
Let's try it another way
You'll lose your mind and play
Free games for may
See Emily play


Bike (this is absolutely a childish delight!)

I've got a bike, you can ride it if you like.
It's got a basket, a bell that rings
And things to make it look good.
I'd give it to you if I could, but I borrowed it.

You're the kind of girl that fits in with my world.
I'll give you anything, everything if you want things.

I've got a cloak it's a bit of a joke.
There's a tear up the front. It's red and black.
I've had it for months.
If you think it could look good, then I guess it should.

You're the kind of girl that fits in with my world.
I'll give you anything, everything if you want things.

I know a mouse, and he hasn't got a house.
I don't know why I call him Gerald.
He's getting rather old, but he's a good mouse.

You're the kind of girl that fits in with my world.
I'll give you anything, everything if you want things.

I've got a clan of gingerbread men.
Here a man, there a man, lots of gingerbread men.
Take a couple if you wish. They're on the dish.

You're the kind of girl that fits in with my world.
I'll give you anything, everything if you want things.

I know a room full of musical tunes.
Some rhyme, some ching, most of them are clockwork.
Let's go into the other room and make them work.
Just to see whether I can post...Fuck Ban!

A Party...

Just came home after a party. A housewarming party. A horrible experience to say the least.
Me and my parents went there just after me and mommy had a very uncomfortable talk. Looks like I have to be really careful...
So was not in the best of moods.
I usually hate these kind of parties when I have no company. My cousin is out of station so one is crossed of a precariously small list. When we reached there were lot of familiar faces. FIxed up a cheshire cat smile on my face and lit it up any time I saw anybody looking at me.

Woman: Do you know me sonny?
Me: *cheshire cat* (Who are you?)
Woman: Don't know? You *blah blah*
Me: *cheshire cat reloaded* (errr, I have no idea what you are talking about)
Woman: Still no? Your mother *blah blah*
Me: *cheshir cat revolution* (y do u bother?)
Woman: Still u didnt get me?
Me:NO! ( I really mean No!)
Woman: Aha! You got me!
Me: *smug smile replaces cheshire cat* (Did I?)

Went upstairs...they were making food and the dining area...bad place to be when you are alone! People will think you are a pig! (No, I am NOT!)
A balcony...Aah! Some peace and quiet! Suddenly some ladies rushed behind me...
I ran away with my smile fixed...Decided to pretend to have a phone call and rush outside...
Thankfully Panackal called exactly then! (Aliya thanks! You saved my life!)

So went outside and sat in chair a little distant...Took my mobile and sent out some stupid messages... (By the way Hafeez Message about disease originated from me :D)
Nothing to do...No one is noticing me...Thought about playing with the little ones...they were running around with a toy guitar which strangely sings like a piano! They were'nt very receptive to my inviting smile. Must have seemed like a villainous smile :P :-(

Started reading my messages (around 190), purging many old ones to stay within the limit. Still very bored...
My aunts and uncles came then...I searched for a cousin of mine...Learned he had some school work (he is in 12th...poor guy! doesnt realise he will be working his ass off for atleast the next 5 years of his life!)

A relative came and sat near me...reeking of liquor....he is a very nice person and we share a bond over the years and I have high tolerance for liquor smell (you drink for nothing after all :D)
Still I couldn't stand it...probably Old Cask...a cheap rum...

After a while he went away...I was relieved and sad at the sametime...
Then I saw my uncle...enthisiastically went to him...

Uncle: I was looking to get you alone!
Me: You have been saying that for a long time now :P (For atleast 6 months)
Uncle: Yeah...I know
Me: You know what?
Uncle: *evil grin* _______________________________________
Me:oh! who told?
Uncle: Won' t tell...
Me: Hmmm
Uncle: Everybody knows...
Me: What?
Uncle: I mean the guys around here...
Me: Oh! *relieved*
Uncle: be careful...
Me: Hmmm...

I ran away as fast as I can without looking stupid...
And then looked around and found that Dad had gone to eat and I was alone now!
Cursed uncle under my breath and went inside to find mother...
She was in the midst of a ladytalk and I tried to sneak away...drat...I was caught!

Mommy: He is my son!
Me:*cheshire cat*
Ladies: You know us
Me: *feigning surprise* Pinne! (meaning ofcourse...but it has the meaning of 'later' in malayalam..ie I will ask Mother later!)
Ladies: What do you do now?
Me: Finished BTech (Now doing nothing and I have no job as of yet! So please show your sympathy and let me go!)
Ladies: Campus placement?
Me: Nope
Ladies: Hmmmm *dissapprovingly* (Drat! there goes another potential groom for my Brother's Sister in law's mother's sister's granddaughter!)
Mommy: *looks at me accusingly*
Me: *a mean cheshire cat* (Don't even think about her Brother's Sister in law's mother's sister's granddaughter!)

Back to my old place and found some of the bigger kids sitting and they were pointing at me...
A guy looked up and I was so damn happy!
He was a friend I have'nt seen for such a long time and what an opportune moment for him to show up!

We exchanged our current status...Bitched about our respective Universities (not respected! :P)
And Mommy called us to eat something...

There was some delay in making appams. The damn fools should have made more before hand! As we were waiting for the food we talked about things.
My cousins lovelives...
My non existent lovelife...
His very existent till 6 months back lovelife... (News Flash! A prominent hot babe, formerly an engineering megababe, now an Infosys superbabe of our city, is single again!)
Food came...went as it came...we were lucky enought to get two appams...consoling each other there is always next time...
well, almost always...appams flew around...but none to our plates...so we had to be content with a cutlet to wrap it up...And as a finale an idiot cousin of mine showed up...the asshole should have come couple of hours back...else I would have been spared of being bored to death for 2 hrs straight...

Now for Goodbyes...
Lady 2: Bye bye sonny...(May be I should note his name down as a potential candidate for my Brother's Sister in law's mother's sister's granddaughter. I have heard he has a similar aged much cuter cousin...let us see)
Me: Bye... (:P :P :P to your Brother's Sister in law's mother's sister's granddaughter!)

Lady 1: Look, your son knew who I was.
Mommy : Aha!
Me: *cheshire cat*

Later on as we walked back...
Mommy: You knew who she was?
Me: I don't have the slightest idea!
Mommy: I guessed so!

There goes the day...shame, guilt, lies...the day seemed so good till 4:30!

Krrissh!

Check this review out in IBNlive.

Haven't seen Krrish (how many r's are there by the way?) or Koi Mil Gaya...
But sources do say Krrish Hrithik is the son of the KMG Hrithik...
Hmm...
Heard there is an ominously E.T looking alien in KMG...who is very friendly...
Hmmmmmm...
May be he got a little too friendly with Muscle boys Girlfriend! >:)

And viola!
Superbaby Hrithik!

Natural Healing

Woke up with a heavy heart in the morning...
Technically speaking it was my mobile phone alerting me to wake up.
Scrambled up and found a message from my cousin as a part of his celebration on the Italian victory.
Hadn't watched the match (or any match for the record). Was glad Italy won as I was their silent supporter for the match.
Besides I used to be the Italian one in our romantic imaginations in school by picking a world power that you controlled.

But...I felt terrible...not physically but I had such a bad feeling in my mind...Don't know of what...
Slept for some more time after waking up mother...Still felt bad after waking up again...Infact the feeling was stifling me...
Thought I was tired after yesterdays mad running around...Thought a hot bath would clear my mind...

I bathe in hot water in the mornings...(Hot as H.O.T...boil the water to 100 degrees and then cool it to 80...) I revel in hot water...eases my brain and loosens the stiff body...

Still the feeling got worse...I was feeling such a heavy heart that I was very subdued and my mother did notice...I am usually very cocky in the mornings and boss over her.

Got out of the house and started walking...I reached the bus stop and realised it was rather futile to attend the class today...I would not be concentrating and I hate not giving my best to things I like.
Started walking aimlessly...First thought of going to temple...then decided against it...may be someone I know would see me there...
Walked to the museum...have'nt been there for a while...It used to be our meeting place till some 2 years back...
Started feeling more awful as memories swept over me...the memories right from childhood to yesterday...

Thankfully the benches were deserted...They were still damp with the early morning dew or was it a sprinkle of rain?
Sat on a bench and started thinking...After a while my mind was blank...So decided to look around...
That was when I found my healer...

Sky was partly cloudy and the sun peeped in and out...
Sunshine was going on and off on the brown ground...
The early morning sun has some heat and this on and off heat was trying to tell me something...
Then I saw a Mynah...seeing a single Mynah is said to inauspicious...anyway didn't think of it then...
It was pecking around finding its breakfast...
A squirrel came by and jumped into the bench opposite of mine...
Looking into the holes in the bench trying to find something to eat...then it jumped down...
It was startled tosee me and walked cautiosly under each of the opposite benches...
Taking up all scraps and examining them...Checking on me at regular intervals...
After a while it dissapeared from my site...
Two Mynahs came by...two are said to be auspicious...So I guess it cancels out...
They were pecking around in an idyllic manner...
Our squirrel appeared again...this time it found something on the grass it had passed by earlier...Visibly happy it was munching on something...
A young couple (the human kind this time...) walked straight into its presence and the squirrel ran away terrified...it had walked by the food earlier and if only it hadn't...
A gush wind swept over me...so relaxing...and I felt the weight of my heart lifting...
Felt much better...

Sat for some more time...
Then suddenly a sprinkle of rain came...as if it was reprimanding me for my aimless thoughts and urging me to move on....
Decided to walk on now...
Strolled around the place...At one particular area I saw two squirrels...One was leading the other and almost daring it to cross the road (only people walk here...) The first one heeded none and ran away without giving any concern to me or three persons walking behind me...
The second one however was shocked and choked out of crossing...

After exiting the place I felt refreshed and healed...Went to have some breakfast and decided to stay at a cafe till it is safe to go home again...

My interpretations of all these things were a reflection of what I have felt and seen around me...Gave me a perspective to think beyond the petty feelings...
If you can't grasp what I have written then I apologise...

V for Vendetta...

V
Watched V for Vendetta today with my friend Nibin...(More details in the Fellowship Blog)

I had been thinking of reading the comic first (or is it Graphic Novel?) and then the movie...But watched today...
A really good movie...shows how much the paranoid acts of governments of today can alter the country...
Great performance from Hugo Weaving as V (Agent Smith in Matrix) and all others...V was entertaining and a study class that acting does not require facial expressions...
The movie had some difference from its source...It was evident from the little I have read...Still the changes made were pretty good I guess and fitting for a movie...

Effects are pretty good and a solid script...Dialogues are very entertaining...may be a bit too articulate for some...But I enjoyed it a lot...
A good watch for all....
Especially Liberal guys like me who border on being an anarchist! :P
The second school reunion was yesterday...Arya Central School...hailed and booed by all alike...Home for me for 14 years...Well I was rather sceptical about the reunion first...
Then on I thought I would go and see some people I probably would'nt see in my life again.
The first one was rather good lots of people came. I wouldn't say I had a lot of fun but still it was cool to see everybody...
But this time turnout wasn't that good. Only 41...And Bleak being the organiser lost his own money...

Was it any good?
Well..my feelings were pretty much the same as the last time...Good to see old friends...Not any emotionally overwhelming feelings...
After pleasantaries we were all ganging up into gangs and in our own chats...Sangeeta, Nitya and a few girls had the sense to come over and break ice...or rather the break the Aryan tradition of stay away from the other kind...
These gangs made me realise something...
I was welcome in all groups...But didn't really belong anywhere...
I started thinking of the college reunion...after a while will I still be the Outsider?
Reached my cousin's home and slept off the feelings...
No use thinking about myriad things and getting depressed...

I don't think such a scenario would come unless I am alone and none of my good friends are there...I am more emotionally involved with my college mates rather than school mates...
In school during the last two years, I had a hard time coping with my emotional issues and so friends were rather scant...
Only time can tell what is in store...

Meandering...

Wanted to post something today...Just can't bring my ideas together...thought about posting a lot...but just can't...
May be basking in the laziness of completing my graduation! (can't say I am a graduate yet...results are an issue...a big issue)
May be its something more sinister :P

Life moves on like a train
Through the dust and the rain
Path gleams as the wet rail
Slippery and decept is this jail...

Imprisoned by my own thoughts
Actions are nay and dots
Will I ever find in my life
Solace and peace instead of strife?

Gone those days of rush
Thought I'd be happy that I'd blush
But all I feel is an emptyness
Staring at an ocean of immense vastness...

New Day...New Year...New Me...

Here I am - this is me
I come into this world so wild and free
Here I am - so young and strong
Right here in the place where I belong

It's a new world - it's a new start
It's alive with the beating of young hearts
It's a new day - in a new land
And it's waiting for me
Here I am


Song by Bryan Adams from the movie Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron...one of my favourite movies (yeah its an animation movie!)

Almost a year since I started this blog...July 4th was my first post...made the blog after going to through several blogs of several people in orkut...notably...Duttan and Shrutz...
It was made in an Internet cafe in Statue...still remember that...And an year has whisked past me...I became an Engineer (no matter what the results are, I am an Engineer!) from a Student...but still remains a student for atleast 2 more months...

Not been here for a while...was busy with my exams...Not that I was studying (very little of that)...I thought it would be nice to act busy!
Got a brand new template...The old one was sickening me to the point that I didn't want to blog...

Thanks to Hary for the work he did on the header...The picture is from the movie E.T...one of my favourite sequences and movies of all time...
Anyway...will post more...too lazy now :D
