Culturals 2008


Sometimes, the things that you least expect to leave an impression really do. Take Colossus 2008 - our college culturals for example. What started with pointless interminable class meetings, turned into an amazing event, with more vitality than i have ever seen or ever expected to see on our campus.

Granted, the whole Colossus theme was a little zany and irrelevant, but hey - take a look at this picture - need I say more?

Over a period of 3 days - I spoke to more people in my class than I have in the last 3 years. Danced, sang, ate, presented an anatomy paper, slept and even attended postings! Talk about living life in the present.

Speaking of which, its time to conclude my tribute before my writing further deteriorates and move on!

To an absolutely unrivaled culturals!

Sleep! For some reason I seem to think that the longer I stay awake on a sunday the later Monday will come.

If only!

I saw a movie today. The Fall starring Lee Pace. I loved it. You should watch it.

The little girl who plays Alexandria steals the show - and thats saying a lot considering that Lee Pace, a seriously beautiful man, stars alongside.

This film was shot in 18 locations around the world! Its reminiscent of Pan's Labrynth but much less dark in its tone. Watch the movie if not for Lee Pace and "Alexandria" (well actually for most normal people that reason would be secondary), for the spectacular scenes and at times really nice cinematography. Just to give you a hint of the types of locations that this movie was shot in - here are the ones I recognized from visiting there. Agra, Delhi, Bali, Prague, Great Wall. But I also recongnized the pyramids, Jaipur, Udaipur, Gwalior?....absolutely incredible showcasing of India's Mughal grandeur.

Check it out!

PS - Lee Pace is also the star of the sitcom Pushing Daisies. If you haven't already seen that - DO IT NOW! If you found that bizarre - you'll find this deliciously so. Hehe.

You Fill in the Blank (Must I do Everything?)

I know its been a long time since I have updated....thats actually it.

Its not that I don't have anything to say - I guess I'm just not a compulsive typer anymore?

Egad!

Haha

I don't know.

Alright, I'm out.

*****

And the Sarah Palin bullshit!

All I can ask is that - are people BLIND? We have someone running for President of the United States of America at a time when our (and I use that term loosely) image as a nation has all but been destroyed by the short-sightedness and ignorance of certain Americans. And they pick this woman to run for VP! Its a dishonor to the American people. People should be ashamed to let this lady run for president.

And if her nomination was a bid to entice the Clinton supporters to the dark side - any true supporter of Hillary Clinton could see that this woman is nowhere near the calibre of Hillary Clinton. Yea people said she was too "politcal". But for those of you who were born yesterday - you kinda have to political in well....POLITICS!

AaaaaH! How can people be so damn stupid??????

I swear to God, if the damn pachyderms win this election I will wear black for a certain period of time (until supplies run out at least) and will even seriously reconsider moving back to the US of A.
