hee hee hee...
mayb I should use that pink... it sure seems to provoke a response!
4 comments! Wow! Thanks guys. Good to know someone is reading this darn thing. It’s more of a pain to keep up then I would’ve thought… although, considering I’ve kept a diary (sorta) for Years! It’s a bit strange that I didn’t guess it would b tough right at the start.
Hmmm… don’t really got anythin to say actually. Exams start on the 20th… think I mentioned that b4… hmmm… anyway. I’m a lil scared. We haven’t really started our study hols yet. Our first paper is on Editing and the Media Project. Which sucks, coz the editing paper is apparently really technical (eeeek!) and I’m not really sure what the Media Project paper is supposed to b about!!
Our Media Project was to create an A/V for AMCO – which is this really boring old battery manufacturer (is that grammatically correct? Or should it b manufacturing company? Is ‘manufacturer’ specific? Damn! Y am I bothering with this!? ANYWAY…) and we haven’t really finished it yet. The video script is done. We’ve finished the shooting. But we still have to figure out the VO.
For this we need some information. Which Brand-com, the company that handles the AMCO account, is supposed to give us! They also have to get us some stock footage. Both of which they have FAILED to do!!! And until they give us this stuff we cant finish. And until we finish… we cant start studying for our exams! U See y I’m a lil stressed out here?
Ok… time to stop complainin… although I have it on good authority that it’s nice to take a break from ur sucky life and see that other ppl have the same sort of horrid existence to contend with… he he thanks for that Y :D
Sooo… what else has been going on? Actually nothing much. Been sick… still have a soar throat. But at least I only cough occasionally! Yay! So. ‘Stay home – go to college’, pretty much covers my whole life for the last week. Haven’t downloaded any interesting music or seen any interesting movies… ok, may as well just admit it.
My life is DULL! Dull, dull, dull. And boring too! He he he… at least it has been for a lil while now. Oh well. Got to read a lot. That was really good. ;) I love reading. And it was nice to actually have time to do that.
As I said, with the weather and stuff the cable TV and internet keep cutting out… so being stuck at home pretty much meant reading and sleeping. Two thing I really haven’t had a lot of time to do in a long while… so it’s all good.
Okie… now I think I gotta go. Will try and fill another one of these out tmrw. But since I really doubt I’ll have anything much to say… he he he… also… cant place too much reliance on the net being there when I have the time to write.
Oh. My cuz is driving down from Chennie as we speak. Should b here in about an hour… but I think he’s makin more of a flying (or in this case drive through) visit. I have college tmrw morning tho. At about 11. BORING! Well, not really. It’s just that usually I go in, and then we do so much less then what we could in the time we take… u know? Anyway. Time to go. K wants the comp. And I’ve probably run out of things to say. ‘probably’ coz I bet I could just keep this up for ages… rambling on and on and on… till the end of time…hee hee hee…
bye now

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
