Deep Woods 2006

Given the fact that I had missed the opportunity to go to the Stella Maris' culturals, it was no surprise that I was all smiles when I heard that I was gna participate in some events at MCC's culturals, Deep Woods '06.

I was to participate in 4 competitions. But who was going there to participate, with the number of colleges invited, esp the galz coll, it was gna b an amazing treat for the eyes. Especially after spending more than 6 dry months in this gay college, it was surely gna b an informal vacation.

Day 1 started off with the extempore competition for me, which was the most worsht one ever. topic sucked, art is telling truth using lies. It was one of the most boring event ever. But then, this was negated by the fact that there were so many gorgeous galz lurking aroung the sprawling campus. And then the time came for Spin a yarn. I was kinda pessimistic about my opportunities to win given the fact that my partner was a nut case. Anywayz, the topic was actually a good one. If I had an empty head....and the "story" of ours turned out to be more of a conversation rather than a Story.

That was supposed to be the end of the events for day one for me. But then my snr had withdrawn from shipwreck cos he had to participate in some other event. So I ended up registering for that too. And believe it or not, I was the last fellow to register and I won the 3rd place :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D. It was sema fun, I was supposed to be Jim Carrey...i was afraid the judge might screw up my question round. 1st question....Mr. Jim Carrey, how do you explain your fetish for animals....gone...but i ended up blabbering something and won the 3rd place.

The day ended with the fashion show and it was time for some drooling once again. The main comperer made an awesome comment when the Ethiraj and WCC's rounds were over. he said "phew, that was one hot show. and i hear that the gents toilets are getting crowded, wonder why?". my college fellows put up a pretty good show for first timers. But who cares about the winning when you got so many beautiful galz around u???

Day 2 went off to a shocking start. This was the day when my main event, the debate was to be held and at the entrance i met my debate partner. He was like "macha, I'm not participating da". It was quite shocking. the topic was a pretty good one, Morality is the defense of the weak. And i wasn't going to participate. I somehow managed to digest the fact that I was going to spend the whole day without taking part in any competition. But it was time for more fun. the Quadrangle, or so they call the open ground in the middle of the campus was filled with people for the western acoustics program. it was pretty good, some of the colleges came up with their own compostions. in the middle of this event there was a huge commotion. apparently some New College guy beat up a Loyola College guy and as usual there was exchange of blows. Except for this unprecedented event, the whole culturals was rocking.

I didn't go for the 3rd day cos it was gna b filled with dry events like rangoli and collage and stuff like that.

PS: My college finished 2nd overall....wow....and i contributed:D:D:D:D:D.

Tera Bina

Guru's music is out. Yet another awesome album by A.R.Rahman. Obviosuly loved the album, but one song stands out. Completely. It's called Tera Bina. Check out the song here
Just got one word to describe the album - Divine. It brings out a unique feeling when you listen to this song.

And one more interesting aspect in this Specific song, Tera Bina, is the use of different tunes for the two stanzas. I don't think I've noticed this in any other song, have you?

And check out the lyrics here. Thanks to Ramya for those.

Did it finally...:D:D:D

Get a GF

New Fav song, Old one though

The man who sold the world, by Nirvana.

Thanks to Rakesh, I was able to notice this song. It had been there in my playlist for more than a month, but thanks to him I heard this song and Man Do i love it. Kurt Cobain sure has a sexy voice.

Here's the lyrics:

We passed upon the stair, we spoke of was and when
Although I wasn't there, he said I was his friend
Which came as some surprise I spoke into his eyes
I thought you died alone, a long long time ago

Oh no, not me
I never lost control
You're face to face
With The Man Who Sold The World

I laughed and shook his hand, and made my way back home
I searched for form and land, for years and years I roamed
I gazed a gazely stare at all the millions here
We must have died along, a long long time ago

Who knows? not me
We never lost control
You're face to face
With the Man who Sold the World

Why this Children's day?

I just realized that today's Children's day. It used to mean lots of candy (50p eclairs) and a holiday. But unfortunately everybody is aware of the fact that we ain't children anymore. So no more sweets and no more holidays.

But we can still wear whatever we want to college, that's remained the same.

But what did Children's day actually mean to us?

Was it really OUR day? or was it another day when we were dictated terms by our elders? The fact that such a day exists is actually useless in my opinion. What's the use?

To eat chocs...says a frend....as tho his digestive system would reject chocs on other days. May be it would've been relevant to celebrate this day when Jawaharlal Nehru was alive. but now it's utterly useless....
