Home

It's where the sun shines. The rays bouncing off a stone. It's where the air carries the known and the unknown. It's where the roads are empty past midnight and overcrowded past sunrise. It's where the shopkeeper offers you a cup of tea. It's where the food is always served warm. Served with warmth as well. It's where the autorickshaw guy cons you. It's where the auto rickshaw talks to you. It's where the auto rickshaw guy gives you valuable guidance. It's where friends love their beers. It's where they love every sip of it. It's where every inch of space is used for playing cricket. It's where every inch of space is used for playing football. It's where the cold breeze invites you. It's where the hot wind gives you ideas to cool down. It's where people talk for hours altogether. It's where it all comes together. It's called home.

Father

The bottom line is that i love my Father. I have hated him for sometime, but i have been a fool. For he is my inspiration. I see my reflection in him. I see bad dreams about him and i stay awake in my bed thinking about my Father. My Father is kind, god fearing, very creative, loving and affectionate. He just want to do good. He just want to do good to everyone else. I haven't seen a man who donates to charity so much. My Father i am grateful to what ever you have done for me and your blessings. I am grateful for all your teachings. I miss you and i know that i would see you soon.

I love you dad.

Kingdom Of Rust

Watch the Video. Jez Williams goes around the United Kingdom to find a suitable place to bury his lover's ashes. There are so many connections. It is just beautiful. Kingdom of Rust - I'll pack my bags, thinking of one of those hours, with you, waiting for you.....

I hear a sound

A sound above my head

Distant sound of thunder

Moving out on the moor

Blackbirds flew in

And to the cooling towers

I'll pack my bags

Thinking of one of those hours

With you

Waiting for you

My god

It takes an ocean of trust

In the Kingdom of Rust

I long to feel

Some beauty in my heart

As I go searching

Right to the start

The road back to Preston

Was jutted out in snow

As I went looking

For that stolen heart

For you

Waiting for you

My god

It takes an ocean of trust

Takes an effort, it does

My god

It takes an ocean of trust

It's in the Kingdom of Rust

I long to feel

That wince in my heart

As I went looking

I couldn't stop

Now I'm

Waiting for you

It's nice here. No hassles - no tubes and no Punks walking freely on the road with bad breath and poor style. People don't appreciate watching the desi's walk around but that's okay. I guess we Indians are used to the fact that no one in the world really accepts us.

Something very interesting came across the other day. I was writing this test and i stumbled upon a sentence correction question. I dont remember the structure, but it was something like - It has been found that people who don't do well in academics, earn much more that people who excelled in academics at some point in time.

I was watching "The Italian Job" and i made this connection. You need a lot of brains to steal something. The kind of strategy they put in (like Oceans 11) - It is nearly impossible for someone ordinary to achieve that. Take for example the IIT'ians/ IIM grads/ Stanford Grads/ MIT Grads/ etc etc. The list goes on. The fact is that graduates from such big institutes always end up making pot loads of money. Now, the kind of people who actually manage to get into these places are actually the one's who are talented/brilliant/smart. So ideally these are the people who know the art of stealing money from the market for their own benefit. Only smart people can do that. So if you get a high GMAT score and you write good essay's and manipulate your resume in such a way that you are recognized as a SMART KID - you make it to these places. So the smart kid wins again.

Otherwise, things are the way they used to be last year around. I came across another event that happened 2 years back - rather i was reminded of. Since the designs are more simplified now, i feel that i am in a better place than before.

Heartattack In A Layby

I pull off the road  East of Baldock and Ashford  Feeling for my cell  In the light from the dashboard   Hissing from the road  The smell of rain in the air con  Maybe check the news  Or just put a tape on   Lighting up a smoke  I've got this feeling inside me  Don't feel too good   If I close my eyes  And fell asleep in this layby  Would it all subside  The fever pushing the day by   Motor window wind  I could do with some fresh air  Can't breathe too well   (She waits for me. Home waits for me.)   I guess I should go now  She's waiting to make up  To tell me she's sorry  And how much she missed me  I guess I'm just burnt out  I really should slow down  I'm perfectly fine but  I just need to lie down   We'll grow old together  We'll grow old together  We'll grow old together...

Blackfield

"While I'm melting in the rain, deep in pain, she is so far
Will we ever meet again as friends, after so long?".... I have been screaming my lungs out. I never expected the "Three Days Grace 4 minute like static music" to take me for another fantastic fall.

It's been awhile since the bench at clapham south happened. I am gonna turn 24 years old this month. I remember my last birthday... Had a time yea! Aye Mate! 

Jolly be the one who travelled the road less hated!
