Dhoom Machaale

Saw Dhoom 2 on Friday. Not bad. Expected a bit more. There's no story to speak of, the music sucks, and they've ruined the ending. Uday Chopra is just the comic relief, Bipasha is eye-candy. Hrithik looks cool and the stunts are great. The effects are rather impressive. The scenery is also good. Aishwarya .... is all right but not really a meaty role. and NO bikes till the last 10-15 mins X-( Hrithik's disguies are also quite good. And Hrithik's entrance and Abhishek's entrance rocks. The movie's watchable but I wouldn't recommend it to anybody looking for a story.

Voices In My Head

What am I? Just a bunch of atoms, with certain electrical signals inside some specific atoms. Sometimes I wonder what made man develop the capacity for abstract thought. Why did he not stick to seaching for his next meal? Why did he develop greed,avarice and pride? Why are some people's neurons more efficient than others? Why am I writing so much crap? My neurons need to be cleaned...Round II of My extistential Angst.

Zonal Informatics Olympiad....And Aching Feet

Went for the Zonal Informatics Olympiad. It was held in Kolkata. Means had to take an early morn train. The teach who went with us was..How should I put it?...A Nincompoop!!!!! First He's really nervous.(He's new you see) We got into the train and reached Howrah at right time(8:45 AM) we told him to take a ferry and cross the river and take a taxi from the other side. But No...He WILL take a prepaid taxi from the station. Net Result: Got stuck coming out of Howrah station and going to Rabindra Setu. The Traffic there literally crawls. Add some really "interesting" odours and you have a bad time. It took us half an hour just to cross Howrah Bridge. Reached Venue(Park Street) a bit late. Went to give the exam. Was all right. Questions were a bit wierd. But all right. Exam over at 1:00. This guy want to take a train called Shaktipunj which leaves Howrah at 2:15 P.M. We reached Howrah at 1;50 P.M. and suggested that we go by Coalfield Exp. No. Pack Something to eat from the Food Plaza and go to the platform. It being a Long Dist train and since we didn't have Sleeper class tickets. had to get into general. God Almighty .No place to sit, no place to stand properly. Had to stand all squashed up for 3 Hours. My poor Aching feet. We were all cursing the guy pretty frequently all through the journey. Oh. and We had to pay for our tickets.

Stupid West Bengal Govt.

Apparantly the WB govt is planning to pass a bill which allows all non-commercial parties to post posters and graffiti on anybody's walls, as long as they 'ask' them. Yeah Right. They can't control the naxalites, calcutta is one of the most polluted cities in the world, people are dying of hunger and disease and all they can think about is graffiti. And We vote these people to power. Get Ready to wake up to A Graffitied Bengal.

Seminars and Cultural Programmes

Stupid title but It makes it look like I attend seminars. Actually The seminar was in the morning and for me Dad. There was some stupid cultural program in the evening for which we went. Dear God.....Imagine a group of mentally deficient chickens all dressed up in stupid apparal and suffering from an advanced form of epilepsy. That would be like the dances performed. Now Imagine a girl who's being paid a fiver for every vowel she draws out, a rupee for every thank you she says and 50p for every "That was a great performance'....You've got the announcer. Then add some waiters who either think you're invisible or who can see only you...a wierd orchestra, a bunch of chattering ladies, some kids running berserk...awful food set in an atmosphere of Bengali songs and The Lost World ....My Evening in toto.

I've switched to Blogger BETA. Some people are complaining about it. Let Me see.

Well, This Sucks....

Question: Which is worse, a running nose or a blocked one?
Answer: A running one.

Decided to take a break from school for a couple of days. Reason:-Cold and Sore Throat. So didn't go to school. Got the home-500 plan, decided to see when night unlimited starts. Night Unlimited my foot. 0200-0800 is night? They should call it morning unlimited. Still have to complete a computer project, an EVS project and submit a Chem project. Yup, I'm a master procrastinator. :-)) Plus this house is nice and cool in summer. But its damn chilly already. brr....

Existential Angst

Why am I Alive? What use of my being alive? Why am I not famous or rich? Why are some people rich and famous while some are doomed to mediocrity? Is there something special in these people? These are some questions that reverbrate in my head. Sometimes I feel I'm just wasting my time. Sometime's I feel that I'm not doing anything worthwhile. Then again I feel like doing something that will make the world remember me. Ah Woe Is Me

Damn Winter Timings

Today, I got up all "fresh" , wishing I didn't have to go to school. I got ready and reached school at 7:10 A.M. I figured I must have arrived earlycoz the cycle stand was empty...then it struck me. Today was the day from which winter timings started :-X (8:00 to 2:00 instead of 7:30 to 1:30). But I wasn't the only one. There were some other ppl who were like me.They also forgot that winter timings started from today. Then while about to return home my Bajaj spirit had a flat, had to go to the nearby shop and fill it up. Net Result:- reached home at 2:35 P.M. Mom was worried and called my friend to see what the matter was. I had forgotten to tell her about the timing change and top it up with the flat.... Anyway I returned home rather irritated. Damn Timing change
