Hello Moto...

thats the ringtone on my phone at the moment which is a (no prizes for guessing) Motorola Slivr. And I know which model it is simply becos I have been asked it soooo many times not out of any love for gadgets. I know how slim it is, the pixels on the camera and the amount of space on my phone post downloads(free space)...too much information in my already overloaded brain.. and thrs a reason why I dont care too much for these figures....thats becos technology HATES me!
I mean I take pix on my phone and try to transfer onto the net...I cant do it. cos my wire thing that I got with the phone doesnt seem to wrk. I buy speakers to connect to my comp at work but apparently some port thing isnt compatible/doesnt work....I try to copy some stuff onto a flash drive (after a LOT of trial) and the damn file doesnt copy cos well...I DONTFREAKINGKNOW .... I flunked all of my computer papers in college...and even the simplest of tech like how many gb is my comp fails me......
ummm....I think I sound almost like the couple from 'Zen and the Art of...' goddam.....

far from the marrying mob...

what is this obsession with marriage? why is evryone I know getting married....is it because I've gotten old(????) or is it because its suddenly the 'in' thing to do?
I mean like this guy I was madlyinsanely in love with suddenly decides to get married just when my obsession was making headway..
practically everyone from my class from college and school are married already or proudly wear a 'committed' tag....
not a happy state of affairs...def not....I'm staying as far away from this entire maddness as I can....inspite of momdad's best efforts including surreptitiously putting my profile online and scanning the matrimonial section in the papers with a microscope...I'm sorry, I'm refusing to go down just yet....

stand at the door of what was 'ere before...

that is a line from a poem by Edna St.Vincent Millay talking about how she yearns for her childhood..standing at the door and looking back at what was knowing she will never be able to go back... well I'm not sure of the exact words but the thought stayed with me and I'm thinking of it so so much as I feel old at 25...
so many things lost. Innocence. and I'm not being dramatic when I say that... so many things like who said what and how it was said and who didn't tell me what just didn't matter to me earlier. It suddenly occupies a large portion of the inside of my head....Peace. Maybe its the job I do maybe the stress is natural for a matureworkingadult but I cant remember a day when I'm not hyperventilating, irratated or impatient. Conviction. There maybe a God in heaven but everything is NOT alright with the world and doubt if I even believe it ever will be.....
just a couple of things I wish were still in me...
is it already another weekend? time for me to start making my plans for Monday Morning and trying to sleep just a little bit longer on saturday...

a sudden spark of brilliance...

well ok so I use the word brilliance a lot...like when I'm playing scrabble with my mom and I say Hurry up, I have the brilliantest word to make...or I wash my hair and think it smells brilliant..whatever...
anyways, have had the most brilliantest energy today...met up with some clients at 8:30...not a breakfast meeting mind u since there was no food offered to resuscitate me (i actually got that spelling in place!) and then one more... and I'm not even half way done...whats that? social life? what?.. sorry??....

reportedly not a sober canine...

this is the content of an actual story on a leading english news channel...while this is funny...(not sober? what are sources saying he has been drinking???) the larger issue is definitely definitely not...
what gives humans the rights to behave as if they are any better (mind you not better off) but better behaviour-wise than some of the animals? animals world over are over-worked, under fed, beaten, traumatised, tortured, mutilated and when one of them decides to give as good as it gets, we bay for their blood?....
the way it is being handled in bangalore is barbaric....even healthy dogs with pups are being killed... in cold blood...protests are on, nothing though seems to be getting done about it....
where do you start? the issue of animal cruelty extends to far more issues...pet dogs that are continuously changed, bullocks being over loaded and beaten, horses that are so thin their bones are sticking out...where do you start? is starting a shelter for traumitised animals a workable solution? conducting workshops/ classes in schools and colleges about animal cruelty (use of leather/turning vegetarian) workable solutions?....where DOES one start? what DO you do?
