Yello :)
I am still in Santiniketan.... And I pine for home. Well, not really... but a little :p
I really need coffee right now.... It's insane.... The next person I see with coffee is going to have an ice-axe embedded in their skull.... Well not really ;)
I'm chatting with my sister-like best friend in the whole universe (check out her blog at theimmortalstorm.blogspot.in ) who's in Italy right now :p And I really feel the need to thank the inventors of the internet.... How it is that I can chat with another person in an entirely different continent.... So fast.... and best... basically for fweee!!!! :D
So I was just checking some stats on my blog... When I noticed that I've written 25 posts.... This is my 26th... :O Zomg.... It's been... what...a year since I began??? wowwww!!!! :p
So I'd promised to upload a picture of myself (a proper one without any wonky glasses on my face)... But the pageviews had to satisfy me... And it hasn't :( So I'm gonna upload one next time. Or next to next time... Or let's just keep it at thirty posts.... YES. The moment I hit thirty blog posts... A picture shall come up. Regardless of the no. of pageviews and whether my conditioner went dysfunctional or not :p
With that said.... I really need to talk about a movie I saw recently.... It was probably the most beautiful thing ever!!!! :')
Those of you who aren't living in India and the several other Hindi speaking countries around here.... Will probably not have heard of it.... But if you can... Watch it with your preferred language subtitles... It's worth it :)
It's called Kai Po Che. I think the name is Gujrati.... So I have no idea what is means...
Wait... I looked it up. It literally means 'I have cut' which you say for when you have severed the string of another kite with yours. People do that here, in India... It's a big thing really.... There are competitions held where people try to keep their kite flying the longest while attacking others and trying to get away from others' attacks... See... The string of the kite is coated with a layer of fine powdered glass which allows for the airborne cutting of other kite strings... But it's difficult and requires quite a lot of patience ans skill :)
The movie isn't entirely based on kites...It's based on three guys... Best friends.... Their different interests and the way they try to live the best they can... Then earthquakes and The Godhra Riots happen... and a lot changes.... I cried quite a bit :'( It was ahhhmazing.
A book that came to mind while I was writing about flying kites was The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini. It's Brilliant with a capital B. It based around the life of this boy and his friend and the Taliban rule in Afghanistan after the Russians left etc etc etc.... Not only did I get a truthful sketch of the situation in a neighboring country I know so little about.... It also showed me that there is no supreme force that's gonna swoop in and clear out the bad guys... Every has their own cruel intentions.... You HAVE to read it.
I've decided one one more thing. In my blog, I haven't once mentioned where I live in India. I don't quite know why.... But now I shall.... I live in Mumbai. Which is the capital of Maharashtra. Which is a state in India.
Wow... That felt great. Just saying... Finally :D
Okay... Now I have to go.... :p
