I just finished this absolutely amazing book.
It’s this science fiction story about a cyborg. Well, that’s really simplifying things… but anyway. The book is Elizabeth Bear’s debut novel and it’s called ‘Hammered’. At first I wasn’t really sure if I was going to like it, but then it totally sucked me in. and before I knew it I couldn’t put it down. So there I was, at 4 am last night all psyched up, and with that awesome feeling u get after reading a fabulous book.
U know the one…
And still craving more! I really, really want to get my hands on the next one. I think it’s called ‘Scardown’ … yup. That’s it. But it’s only out on June 28th. and that’s the release date in the US!!!! Which means it’s not going to get here for ages!!!!!!!!!! Aurgh.
: ( that is a sad face moment in my book… (heh heh. No pun intended. Seriously. Sorry. That was really, really bad. Even if it was totally accidental. Which I swear it was) …
anyway. That’s all I really wanted to say for today.
Now I should probably go to bed. It’s only 12:40 but I’m still convalescing. SO. Plenty of rest required. Went out of the house for the first time in four days today… but since it was only to college (blech) that really doesn’t count. I want to eat bacon… sorry random thought… it’s just that I’ve been craving all this salty, fried stuff. U know. French fries… Bacon… Sev… I think it’s the taste extremes. Also want blackforrest cake… and chocolate mouse and some really sour stuff too… raw mango heading the top of that list! But preferably thothapurri Hmmm… guess I’m getting better and want stuff I can actually taste. : ) he he
Okie… time to either go to bed, or get a midnight snack
So gnite

Indulging in my self defeat
He he… that’s actually completely untrue… but I like that line. It’s a quote from Len – Steal my sunshine. Which is an annoying yet amusing and catchy song.
We haven’t had any internet for a while again. Which was a lil more bugging bcoz I’ve been stuck at home, sick, with nothing to do. Would’ve been good to have something to play around with. Got bored of reading after a while… u know how it is… and there wasn’t any tv either, for most of the day – cable guy didn’t have any power again I guess. what made it worse tho was that I cant even talk… well, actually my throat has improved over the course of the day, so I can talk in a whisper now… but it kinda added insult to injury.
I hate loosing my voice. It’s so damn frustrating. I’m a lil too opinionated to just be able to sit idly by while ppl have a conversation. Not that I’m exactly the noisy type under most circumstances – not compared to my family anyway : ) he he he… they r all a heck of a lot louder then me. And I pretty much have to be really insistent or shout to get my point across. So not being able to speak really gets on my nerves.
The only good thing about it all, is that I got a respite from college for two whole days!! What’s more, we don’t have class tmrw either, and of course Sunday is always a holiday… and even if I have been bored stuck here with nothing much to do, it’s better then being in college. Coll has been real hectic recently… exams in a few weeks and we still have a bit of stuff to finish b4 that. Not been getting much sleep really… what with all the work. Actually I guess it was pretty inevitable I would get sick. Do tend to crash and burn unless I get at least 30 –35 hrs of sleep in a week. And that isn’t really all that much considering that 8x7=56! Which is the amount of sleep ppl r supposed to get. And of course there is the weather to consider. Standard blr monsoon, hot as hell one sec and then rainy and freezing the very next. I got wet too… hmmm… card stacked up a bit against me huh?
He he he… well, I think it’s just a throat infection and I’ll be fine in a few. By tmrw latest actually!! Pays to b optimistic occasionally… bed time now… had nice Chinese soup. There is nothing like chicken broth to make u feel better. And wanton noodle soup is one of it’s best forms : ) gnite

Sniffles...
Well.... that about explains everything!!!
he he he... now, lets talk about something else. I have often noticed the less u think about an illness, the quicker u get well... that's not to say u shouldn't take appropriate care. just don't keep feeling sorry for urself is all... and pretty soon ur all well again :)
the last few days have been quite boring and amusing at the time... which is a weird oxymoron, now that i come to think about it.... hmmmm... but none the less, in this case both things were true.
yesterday we did nothing in class, but we did find out what our exam papers are probably going to be like. sounds like they're going to be pretty hard, all technical and stuff, but apparently we should be in good shape to answer them. at least, ma'am thinks we're prepared... but then I'm not really so sure if she knows what exactly we have learnt this year.
she really isn't all that clued in about what is involved in animation or most kinds of film making really. but she does know how to source us excellent faculty who do have a clue... so i guess it all evens out in the end :) he he he...
lets just hope they aren't to hard. altho even if they are pretty scary I highly doubt I'll fail... but then, that dratted Pradeep Sabastian is going to be correcting our film studies papers... eesh... now that is scary. for me anyways... hmmmm enough stressing. don't need to worry bout that for a few more days at least!! :D
we had the most amazing rain here yesterday evening! it rained so hard that traffic all over the city came to an absolute standstill! not many trees fell tho, probably due to the fact that most of the weak ones already came down last week. I hope those were as many as are going to fall. over 150 trees is no joke... i don't think the 'garden city' can afford to loose any more of it's tree cover...
anyway. there was this MASIVE puddle right in front of lavi's house. so when i went over there i had to wade through it. it was the funniest thing! there i was, with a big umbrella (luckily wearing shorts - coz pants would've gotten absolutely sopping wet), sloshing through calf deep water. and all the while lavi was standing on the balcony shouting down to me 'swim for it lavi girl!! swim for it!' ('lavi' here, being me, not her - we share a name) he he he... but mayb u had to be there to grasp the hilarity of the situation.
and today we - my class, that is - went to do our out door shoot in Lal Bagh. I think it came out crap. well, lets be a lil optimistic here and pretend I didn't say that... and while we're deluding ourselves lets also assume that we got some FANTASTIC footage, while will be invaluable to our respective portfolios... he he he...
okie... it is now time for me to go scrounge up some dinner. well, since my throat is pretty soar I don't actually know what I can eat... but I'm hungry. so lets go check the situation out huh? bu-bye for now

Parvati
this stupid girl, not so affectionately known as paro, is really, REALLY, getting on my NERVES!!!!!! aurgh!
doesn't she have anyone else to bug! y ME?!!! what the hell did I do to deserve this?!!!? she makes me want to SCREEM!!! and that is definitely NOT in a good way! god... I'm attempting to write my essay. minding my own business... just finishing of my work so I can get one, just ONE good nights sleep. but does she leave me be? that would be a BIG FAT NO!!! sheeeesh!
first she calls coz her mom is bugging her... so i gotta sort out that lil problem for her. then i get a short respite. during which I got ready for bed and then sat down to my essay again... and then the stupid chica gives me a follow up on how her talk with her mom went. she KNEW I was working! but does that stop her? OH NO... the world REVOLVES around the bitch... everyone has to be available at her convenience, to help her in any way she needs. I don't think I have EVER met anyone else as supremely selfish as her before... it's really unbelievable.
actually the first interruption wasn't that bad... but I said something along the lines of 'oh, good. glad to hear it all turned out well. now u can concentrate on the work we gotta submit tmrw.' and then she goes 'oh my, I was just about to out down my diary and start working. but another horrible misfortune has befallen me! the power has gone out!! is there anybody in the world as unlucky as me!!' - or words to that effect. seriously. she thinks SHE's unfortunate! I know another person as unlucky as her... ME!!!! I actually have to listen to all this crap day in and day out at all odd hours... and the worst of it is. I actually CANT do anything about it!! coz she actually DOESN'T have anyone else to turn to. really! and I guess I'm to soft hearted to do what apsi suggested - 'tell her to take a flying fuck on a rolling doughnut.' but it sure would've been fun to say. he he :D
i really think i should post the letter she gave me for my birthday. it's probably the best way to explain exactly how bugging she is... hmmm... ok. here goes
Paro's Bday Letter to Me - verbatim (spelling and punctuation included.)
hey L
Its no use saying Happy Birthday so late, but anyways however cliched and late it is, Happy Birthday. Its really funny actually, this is my third attempt to write a letter to you. I hope i don't have to throw away this letter. Well, I had to throw the last two letters because it seemed to be too boring and senti. (You know, what a sentimental fool i am.)
However, i really wanted to write a letter to you. Now we've known each other for more then two years or is it just going to be two years. (I'll figure it out later) But my point was how much much do we know each other? I guess, you know me much better then I know you. Thats good to know, but also its embaressing. I think as classmates, we compliment each other, do you think so? May be not all the time.
We are going to leave Wigan this year. This has been one of the worst incidents in my life. I still keep asking myself, why did this have to happen? and at this point of our lives. It was very tough and traumatising decision and its still bothering my parents; but you made it easy for me to move ahead, take a wise os say sane decision and stick to it.
Thanks, for that. But you know what there are also times when you get on my nerves, just as i get on yours and then i hate you so much; but i feel funny after a while when I'm back to my senses. I would say to myself "What was i thinking?".
HeHeHe Neways, I want to apologise to you for turning down all your invitations; I mean when you invited my mother and also the birthday party. Am so damn sorry, I wish i coukd explain you.
Its just that i feel completely out of place. Am sorry for that. hope u'll understand.
Well, now i don't know what else to write about except that you are a friend i care for and wud love to have have you as a friend for life. Wish you all the best in life.
God Bless You!!
with love
Parvati P.
so, tell me... is that your idea of a cheerful and nice birthday letter to give anyone. I don't think so. It really pissed me off, and was a lil hurtful too... you should've seen my family's reaction to it!! he he he...
I have never seen my mom that mad on my behalf before... actually, I didn't give her the letter to read. she saw it lying on the ground, and naturally, read it. but she was really ticked of... immediately started psycho analysing paro. I guess you can't shut counsellor instincts off... he he. but it did feel kinda good to realise I hadn't over reacted when I felt bad.
I didn't say anything to paro of course. what was i supposed to say after all? only a year left. that's what I keep telling myself. if I could stand her for two years, surely I can last this one year out - without committing homicide, that is. and after that - I NEVER have to see her again. with any luck, her parents will marry her of to some nice mallu guy with a job in Siberia... he he he... ok, that was a bit mean. I really don't want bad things to happen to her. I just want her to leave me alone once in a while.... it's really tiring you know... to be constantly solving someone else’s problems. I do have my own to worry about you know. y cant she see that?
ok
enough ranting for this girl. time to go finish that work. I'm still hoping to be in bed by 2 latest. which gives me about an hour to nail this essay. so gnite and bye bye all... he he he... like there are That many people reading my silly lil blog!

I'm so tired, i don't know what to do
Oooh my aching back! It’s only just past 9 O’clock, relatively early in the evening… and I have a shitload of work to finish. Damn. Wish I could just forget about it and go to bed. That’s one of the many reasons why I hate this weather - Cold and rainy- I always feel foul!
On to better and brighter things… wait. There aren’t any! He he he… ok, now I feel better. A lil ranting and sarcasm goes a long way.
So today – not as awefull as one would expect a Monday to be. Paro was sick, so I went to her pg to work. Got a short (half hour only!) nap.. and then went in to coll at about 3 to show ma’am our AMCO AV, VO, which we have basically finished. Just some tweaking required, which we will do in class tmrw.
We also gotta figure out what we’re going to be doing for our exams this year. Ma’am says that it’s all pretty simple except mayb this one really tough technical paper we’ll be getting on Premier. But I don’t think that’ll be too hard. He he… I hope. I think We’ll be prepared. What I’m stressing about a lil is what comes after that.
I am soo worried about my internship! What if I find out that I actually have no aptitude for this field (although I seriously doubt THAT will happen) or something equally horrific!! I know that it’s just irrational fear. Something akin to stage fright I guess… but still, there is a small possibility that it could all go terribly wrong. Isn’t there?
Sniff… I think I’m coming down with something. Darn it… better not get ill till after we’ve finished all our shooting and stuff though. It’ll b a real pain in the ass to be sick while shooting. And there’s no way in heck I could bunk! So better not get sick at all! Start of on hot tea and ferr phose RIGHT NOW!!!! He he he… madness.
I think I better push of now and actually do some of that work. Which will make it possible for me to be in bed before 3 am… always a good thing.
Arrivederci all…

sunday night... monday blues imminent
He he… hardly had this blog for a week and already I’m finding it hard to keep it up… actually that isn’t strictly my fault. Technical problems u see … we’ve been having some really awesome storms here recently, and this resulted in the me not having any net for a few days…
The monsoon is really getting of to an incredible start. We have even had HAIL!! Do u have any idea how long it’s been since we have had hail in blr!!? Years!! Literally. Not since I was about 10 I think, which is what? 11 years now?! It was sooo incredible. I love really good thunderstorms. Just as long as I’m not caught out in them. And so far I’ve had the good fortune to be at home through almost every one that has occurred.
Apsi left this morning. She was staying with us while she interned at Radio Indigo… which is only fair, since I’ll be staying at her parents house while I’m interning in hydrabad. Since last night was her last in blr she wanted to go out one last time (although that sounds a lil more melodramatic then it actually is, coz she’ll defiantly b back to visit and stuff).
Nav was playing at zero g and kush at insom, but since the zero g thing was a private party and apsi doesn’t really like insom we went to spinn instead. Not that was a bad thing… but it was just the four of us girls (apsi, her cuz deepthi, lavi and me – k wasn’t feeling well) on a Saturday night!! I haven’t been to spinn without a few guys along in for ever! And sat is always the worst day anyway… just tooo many ppl! And since I was the eldest I felt like I was the one in charge. Not pleasant… defiantly not a situation that seems to promise a lot of fun. And it wasn’t. well, not as much fun as we usually have anyway… especially since we didn’t have our own transport and were pretty much dependent on nav to come pick us up after we were done.
Well, of course spinn got raided. When doesn’t it on a sat night these days? So it was all shut up by 1:30. which sucked. Especially since we then had to catch a lift with juhi to insom (I HAVE to start driving!) and then since kush couldn’t get us in free that late – we kinda forgot to ask him to put us on the list earlier, we decided to just hang out in the lobby till nav was done. Which wasn’t till 2:30.
it was really sweet of him to offer to chauffer us around tho, so who am I to complain? I don’t drive, so I cant talk. U see why I gotta go get my licence? Just sheer laziness on my part anyway – and a healthy dose of fear too, of course, but I’m pretty sure I’ll get over that once I’ve gotten a lil practice.
Well, all that stuff is done for now. I don’t plan to go out for a few weeks at least! This last month I’ve been out clubbing enough to last me quite a while I think… all clubbed out. Anyway, with the rains starting and stuff I just think it’ll be a whole lot safer to stay at home like the good lil girl I am ;) hee hee hee…
Speaking of being a good girl, I guess I’d better go and finish the work I have to submit tmrw… and then I still gotta go take my bath and get ready for bed… sigh. It’s only a lil bit of work tho, so it’s ok.
Oh, paro’s mother just came down, she’s going to be moving here to stay with paro. Mayb now that stupid girl will stop being so clingy, and leave me alone for a bit. Bu-bye now…

And it wasn’t. well, not as much fun as we usually have anyway… especially since we didn’t have our own transport and were pretty much dependent on nav to come pick us up after we were done.
Well, of course spinn got raided. When doesn’t it on a sat night these days? So it was all shut up by 1:30. which sucked. Especially since we then had to catch a lift with juhi to insom (I HAVE to start driving!) and then since kush couldn’t get us in free that late – we kinda forgot to ask him to put us on the list earlier, we decided to just hang out in the lobby till nav was done. Which wasn’t till 2:30.
it was really sweet of him to offer to chauffer us around tho, so who am I to complain? I don’t drive, so I cant talk. U see why I gotta go get my licence? Just sheer laziness on my part anyway – and a healthy dose of fear too, of course, but I’m pretty sure I’ll get over that once I’ve gotten a lil practice.
Well, all that stuff is done for now. I don’t plan to go out for a few weeks at least! This last month I’ve been out clubbing enough to last me quite a while I think… all clubbed out. Anyway, with the rains starting and stuff I just think it’ll be a whole lot safer to stay at home like the good lil girl I am ;) hee hee hee…
Speaking of being a good girl, I guess I’d better go and finish the work I have to submit tmrw… and then I still gotta go take my bath and get ready for bed… sigh. It’s only a lil bit of work tho, so it’s ok.
Oh, paro’s mother just came down, she’s going to be moving here to stay with paro. Mayb now that stupid girl will stop being so clingy, and leave me alone for a bit. Bu-bye now…

Multitasking...
there are some definite disadvantages multitasking... remind me to never cut my nail while doing 24 other things... ouch! he he...
had a pretty good day all things considered… we didn’t actually have college. Which was a good thing coz I was sooo sleepy!! Which was weird, since I went to sleep really early last night, by about 1 I think… hmmm…. Mayb I’m getting old… not a good thought…
Anyway. I got to college at 10 and then found out that we weren’t going to have class, and since I knew that we didn’t have any power at home (they were hooking up the generator. All done now… No more power cuts!! Wheee!… he he he) so I went to paro’s pg instead. We spent the whole day doing nothing! Read a few comic books, ate and slept. Wish everyday could b that jobless… wow! Can u imagine how BORING that would get!! And in a very lil while too… oh well, be careful what u wish for I guess…
it constantly amazes me how paro can b perfectly good company one minute and then the whiniest most irritating bore the next... hmmm, better remember not to tell her about this blog... he he he... some people have really major issues and aught to go get them sorted out before they foist themselves on an unsuspecting public... have u ever noticed that people who say things like 'I know I bug u, and I'm sorry!' never actually do anything to try and stop bugging you? well, I have... it's weird...
I think I'm beginning to use the word 'weird' an awful lot recently... that is either becoz my life has just gotten totally crazy and strange, or I'm way to lazy to find a new word to describe what I'm thinking... ummm... how bout bizarre? odd? peculiar? perfectly appropriate and useful words in their own right...
hmmm… the internet keeps cutting out… glad I’m writing this out on word, but it’s still bugging coz I’m trying to some research work… aurgh!! Guess not everyone is inured to power cuts. Stupid internet guy, haven’t u heard of a generator!!?
U know what? I’m supposed to be working. Mayb I should go do that huh? Mayb……………. I think I’ll go get some coffee and a bowl of chocos first. Y would anyone want to spoil chocos with milk? They are wonderful snack just the way they are! And so high in sugar content too!!! The perfect thing to help a person stay awake late into the night. Of course, the way I’m going to feel tmrw – what with all the caffeine and sugar zipping around my system, could explain y more ppl don’t do it. But I’m a big girl, I can handle a lil excess energy. No problem

Well, hello
Hi
this is weird... I've never had my own blog b4. um... thanx R for setting it up :) can u believe he actually made it PINK the first time!!!? I am soo not a pink chick. what were u thinking? weird child... he he he...
I'm listening to this amazing track called Deepest Blue ( the club mix version) - ever heard it? and I ought to be doing research work, for this assignment on the history of animation (who comes up with these assignments!!).... procrastination, a students worst enemy.... hee hee
chicane - no ordinary morning!!! this is the most brilliant track!! at the moment I am totally obsessed with four tracks, the two mentioned b4 and Blvd of Broken Dreams (Greenday) and Is it a sin (another track by deepest blue... but this time I really love the original version).
hey, did anyone watch today's football match? Liverpool vs. Chelsea? Awesome!!! they played so well!! but I missed the last 10 mins coz the damn cable guy did something dumb and suddenly all I had was snow!!! aurgh!!!!!!!! did they win? should've... I'm hoping that they managed to get another goal at the last minute (Liverpool, that is) coz that would mean that they won 2-0 :D which would have really rubbed it in...he he :) go Liverpool!!!! yay
hmmm... okie... mayb I should actually go and do my work now.. gotta turn it in on thursday. not much time left... my comp screen is the weirdest colour ! got this strange bluish cast all of a sudden... y? R says it’s probably coz there’s a large magnetic field close by or one of the colour guns died… oh. weird. also giving me a slight headache...
time to go work so I can get to bed at a half-way normal time... 3 o'clock latest!! :) hee hee weird what becomes normal when ur in college...
