My Name is Red

GO GO-AH.

Axe — Sun, 02 Aug 2009 16:56:47 +0000

Yeah, it was ok. Not fabulous. Its a pretty place for sure. but I ate too much, felt fat, walked around a LOT. Didnt even TOUCH the sea. Not even with a toe. Imagine that.
Goa is a beach place, btw. Very Portuguese architecture, really different and quaint. People dress and speak differently. We stayed in a manicured resort like a fishbowl. Swimming in a fishbowl, ha.

Got a massage, didn’t like being touched by unknown random people. And so intimately. Was strange.

Went to a proper beach, Colva, which was gorgeous. The atmosphere was there and we soaked it in good. Bought things for people.

All-in-all, a good trip. Could have done without it. But atleast I caught up on some reading. So something good did come out of it finally, one can say…

Will put up some pics once dad sends them to me. Hang in there oh solitary blog!

Leaving Home

Axe — Tue, 28 Jul 2009 03:24:37 +0000

Bittersweet. Not sure what to feel.

Dreaming about being there is fine from the comfort of home. But being there would be a completely different feeling.

New Home, New Classes.. New friends? maybe everything won’t have to change.

Maybe its the insomnia, but this is playing with my head. Too much. I wish it would stop and let me be in peace.
my brain has been buzzing so hard the past day or two that I can’t get proper sleep. Deep breathing doesn’t help. It seldom does.

Look at the upside, I got to go for a long, early morning walk..

It can’t be all bad.

The Joys of Shopping

Axe — Sat, 25 Jul 2009 09:35:04 +0000

Ah the frivolous delight in retail therapy is seldom replicable by anything less materialistic.
Today i bought a really nice chudidar suit for diwali, some stationary nic-nacs and reeboks.

I love shoes. I have NO CLUE how I never saw this before. They give you a stud-like hotness and make you look so .. COOL!!

I think I”ll be doing a lot more walking this semester in college, in m brand-new reeboks! Yayness..

I LOVE RETAIL THERAPY!!

Insomniac Kaliedescope

Somno = Sleep
I want my somnos!

I can’t sleep.

My brain whizzes and whirls and swirls and the colours make pretty patterns inside my brain.
Kaliedescope Brain that it is, won’t let me rest.

Feels like I need to populate it – all the time, with something or the other to stop myself from being smothered with the overpowering burden that is myself.

So full. So overwhelmed.

Now wonder I get no sleep at night.

MPE

Axe — Thu, 23 Jul 2009 19:45:48 +0000

How Can they NOT give me even ONE module through MPE?! I feel so cheated!

And its my major for heaven’s sake! Gah. Bidding Trauma/Drama begins again!

I can’t take ACC because it clashes with EC3332 so I’m wondering if I should take 2 PS modules for my minor and take 2 biz modules next sem or something of the sort! Because it seems like I’m not going to be able to take any biz modules this sem – though I can take Mangerial Econs. I so want ACC!! Gaah !

So much modular confusion is bad for the health. Very bad.

Caned for Beer

Axe — Wed, 22 Jul 2009 20:05:42 +0000

A Singaporean Muslim model drank Beer in Malaysia (KL). She will be caned. 6 Times.

I have a doubt though, how’d the authorities know she was Muslim? Did they check her ID ?

She will be fined S$1400 +

A Riddle – 10 points for the first correct answer

Axe — Wed, 22 Jul 2009 19:59:13 +0000

Like shadows, tip-top

‘Boo’ incessant, unrelenting

Poison to his soul

tumour to his heart

static, stuck, daughter of earth

revolves, but he stays

rooted, the tumour feeds

“boo” incessant unrelenting

soaked with gasoline

he burns and seethes

confession- dont douse the flames

they flare, they lick

the gates to his soul

and he can’t see anymore

House of Cards

Axe — Wed, 22 Jul 2009 10:54:16 +0000

What happens to a House of Cards?

It falls. Inevitably.

Its made to break. You’re lucky if it’s intact while you’re in it.

But if it crashes while you’re there – You die.
