one of those posts

that you shouldnt read if you are in a good mood or not a pervert.

when you start looking through the political schemes in work around you, you get liberated. You no longer feel that you are cheated. Because they no longer surprise you.
I give in only cos i am too bored of conversations/arguments that are so artificial, the other person even may know that you know that he is not talking from his heart. maybe he doesnt realise that you know all the while what he is talking about.
Its at the same time demotivating. It makes me want to ditch work, cos I know I am being paid less, lets not spell out than what.
One part in me has been saying that quit and get lost. Other part says that stay and solve the puzzle.
i would be happy if i am given the same work with minimal chances of facing humans, very less interactions with anybody. Anyways let me try for another three months to whatever levels i can. Lets see.

back ground thought:
There is this movie, I dont know if i blogged about it before - A young girl, of about 10 or 12, has a habit of making diary entries. She is neglected by her busy parents, and is taken care of, pretty fondly at that, by a nanny. The nanny even takes the girl with her on movie dates with her boy friend. One fine day, this diary gets into the girls class mates hands. They find nasty entries about almost everybody. Sarcasm dripping entries. Her best friend finds a few targetted at her. Not sure what it was, but do remember that it was very hurting. She loses all her friends. Word reaches nanny and she too finds not so nice entries about herself. her boy friend, her relation etc. The girl apparently has taken a opposite-of-rose eyed glasses view on everything. Tbe nanny is sad. She quits.
The film, not sure here, ends with saying that the girl went on to become a successful writer.
Anyone knows this film ?

May be

maybe it was the beer. may be because it was late in the night. maybe bcos i have started watching movies after quite some time. I am feeling good about whatever movie i watch.
I felt good about Fire.
Chetan today gave the ramayana connection to it. I knew that there is this urmila virah epic thats supposed to be good. But then i completely missed it when i saw the movie.
All that i noticed was nandita das was too good. maybe it was her first film.

Kahin Tho Hogi Woh

Kahin tho
Kahin tho hogi woh
Duniya jahan tu mere saath hai

Jahan mein jahan tu aur jahann
Bass tere mere jazbaat hai
Hogi jahan subah teri
Palkoki kirano mein
Lori jahan chand ki
Sune teri baahon meinnn…..

Jaane naa kahan woh duniya hai
Jaane naa woh hai bhi ya nahi
Jahan meri zindagi mujhse
Itni khafa nahii

Jaane naa kahan woh duniya hai
Jaane naa woh hai bhi ya nahi
Jahan meri zindagi mujhse
Itni khafa nahii

Saasein khogayi hai kiski aahon mein
Mein khogayi hoon jaane kiski baahon mein
Manzilonse raahein doondthi chali
Khogayi hai manzil kahin rahon mein

Kahin tho
Kahin tho hai nashaa
Teri meri har mulaqaat mein
Hoton se hoton ko Chumthi
oo rehte hai hum har baath pee

Kehti hai fiza jahan
Teri zameenn aasmaan
Jahan hai tu meri hassi
Meri khushi meri jaannn…..

Jaane naa kahan woh duniya hai
Jaane naa woh hai bhi ya nahi
Jahan meri zindagi mujhse
Itni khafa nahi

Jaane naa kahan woh duniya hai
Jaane naa woh hai bhi ya nahi
Jahan meri zindagi mujhse
Itni khafa nahi

Jaane naa kahan woh duniya hai
Jaane naa woh hai bhi ya nahi
Jahan meri zindagi mujhse
Itni khafa nahi

What is it about raised hands?

Dug this album out of memory after a long time. I remember we had a casette in our hostel, which we utilised well.

The song has pure tamil lyrics. Not very uncommon. But rather uncommon in a fast paced song, right?

happy birthday

Vishnu : Hello ...
me : We are getting ready. We are on our way.
Vishnu : Ok. eppadi ivlo seekiram kelambittenga?
me : dont know. saran kulikka poittaan. naanum bhai um ready. arun kulikkanum. We will be there around 115-130.
side tone(arun) : happy birthday
me : oh, arun wants to say happy birthday to you.
vishnu : ada paavi...

Anyways, I will not be able to take chicken biriyani for a few more days. Not after Sorna's yesterday afternoon.
Damn you Vishnu, Why dont you get a birthday more often than a year ?

mot annual day - contd

Ok, and so as expected, we went to drink.

cut - A bit of context
within our room mates, we have a very loose sense of money. we go to a hotel, if somebody has cash, he pays. If somebody doesnt he almost always offers to pay by card. And we do try to equal out, but nobody really cares. Well, once when i needed big money, i got a blank cheque from one and what was his current balance.

Cut - back to yday.
We had a couple of pegs and then this guy immediately offered to pay. I offered to share half. Immediately the third person in the table gave a huge thing on how they never shared, but only one person always paid. This guy is pretty close and we drink together often. But the person paying - this was my first time we came together and probably the last. So i politely said what i thought - i may never get a chance to pay for you again. The third person is still cooler and tried to solve the problem by saying "oh bud, we need to plan another pretty fast now". I thought it was over. Well, my friend(lets call him that) again started giving fundas about paying and things. Now cmon, we have been through such stages. I tried to tell him the story(the first cut) to drive that there is nothing wrong with sharing. I tried. He was like "oh, thats your room. but here ,," . I cut him there with a bad word as i can do only when i am drunk and told that "i dont care what he talks and i wont listen". I think he should have come back to senses and was trying to say the same things in a more formatted format, and i kept saying my above sentence. And then the guy told me that he wants to stay back in my home. one part in me, maybe the childish one, wanted to say " now that you subscribe to a different school of sharing philosophies ...". I stopped and i said he could. I thought not linking relationships to sharing bills was just a maturity which this guy hasnt yet come to.
But later when he told me he was thinking whether to go home or come with me, i said "suit your convenience." he dint come. I under estimated him. just keep it up and we will be fine.

mot annual day - contd

open floor - everybodys dancing. And then this lady(a friendly,sisterly tamil lady) pulls me in. She dances. Everybody seems to be able to shake a limb. My one other tamil friend (tamils are the worst i have seen in dancing so far, in these colleges and companies ,they seem to me the most conscious) - even he is kuthu-fying. slow tune ? slow kuthu. fast tune ? same kuthu fast. hindi/telugu/tamil? kuthu. i mean, if you know, almost all tamil guys can at the least do this kuthu-dance. There is a genre of music called kuthu-pattu. I tried. I couldn't. The mot-asia head and indian head are dancing. Like you raise your hands and then start standing on one of your legs alternatively. Well, they atleast did that.
I stood in one side and clapped nodding my head , what i thought was, rhythmic.

simple questions

When will the next seven days end ?

random

Food keeps me going -
Its only afternoon, and I have already had two meals - one at 9 and other at 1. and looking good for a third. Some work also done. This day seems to be working out. Infact i liked the cafe nandini vada so much that i thought about changing my gtalk status message to "food keeps me going".

arun keeps going -
And i had actually bought a couple of extra dosas and vadas for the guys at home. Arun came out of the bathroom and was ironing out his shirt. I was just then having my morning cigarette and reading paper. Arun offered to drop me as he anyway will take time for eating the dosa. I was worried that i had to drop a just lit cigarette. So now i continued. And then arun went to kitchen to pick up the dosa. It wasnt there. The maid had disposed it thinking that it was the previous days'. And then i entered the bathroom to wash my stinking self. And then arun started to office.

music review:
I wondered if the producer or the director went to the music director with a happy days music copy and asked him to clone the feel. I liked most of the songs, yet most of them made me feel that I have heard the tune already. Maybe its only me.

Note : The song posted is not necessarily the best of the lot.

Even if you are rajni, isn't there a time to beat up baddies ? Just before the song, shreya is in a white saree and all that.
Damn your sense shankar.
