Another year

“Cheers to a new year and another chance for us to get it right.”

Yup I am back to add few more posts to my blog and to make you think positive about the only novel you ever tried to write.

Just tried to recollect the important things happened to me last year

Achievement:

Shiny, Fantastic, and Sexy: Yup that’s Omnia for you
Bought myself a Samsung Omnia i8910 phone. Considering my income I think it is a great achievement.



Romance:

Huh..?? Come again what’s that?

Movie:

Avatar – A flamboyant master piece with every inch of the movie trying to show off in one way or another. But that is no reason for anyone not to enjoy it

The Proposal -Perhaps not a box office hit, perhaps not a masterpiece, but it was funny and enjoyable.

3 idiots –What do you expect to see in a movie based on friends… who are also in a college?
1) Ragging
2) Love / Romance
3) Love hating dad (obviously)
4) Tears/ sentiment
5) Everything that starts well ends well theme
And yet this movie stands apart with well written script and enjoyable performances by the actors

Friends:

Valparai – what is a year without an outing with friends?? So here I am with a bunch of my friends to Valparai (Pollachi DT, Tamilnadu State, India)


Resolution:

What is New Year without a new resolution?
My resolution is to reduce few kilos and keep myself fit. I even bought myself a bicycle.


Books:

What do they say about books? No book is an old book when you read it for the first time (brilliant isn’t it? actually I came up with that one myself)

Freakonomics –economics has never been my favorite subject (not when I’ve flunked twice in this very subject). But this book is not about economics (not entirely at least). It is more of butterfly effect or chaos theory infused into everyday economics.

The Lost Symbol- History is a two edged sword: you can either accept it as it was given to you or twist it the way you want. Apparently the later has been Dan brown’s style for three of his titles (including this one).

Games:

Batman Ark hum asylum- for a great fan of batman’s this title is a gift straight from god’s hands. It was intense, dark and mostly physcotic (with the help of The Joker of course).



Gears of War- Nope, it is not the second installment I've played, but the first one. And yup I've enjoyed it. I've to admit I was skeptical because of all those scary levels (yes I am afraid of playing shooting games with very few exceptions). But the third person view helped me to finish the game and enjoy it in the process.

Songs:

There are just too many of them, let me list the most favourite

I’m Yours-Jason Mraz
Neethane- Music:Yuvan Shankar Raja; Movie:Sarvam (Tamil)
Jao Na – Movie: What’s your rashee? Music: Sohail Sen


That's it folks. Bye(for now)
