Tagged!!!!

After what seems like an eternity, a tag has come my way at last! 😀 This one is from Nita 🙂 It is the wish list tag 🙂
I am debating whether I should do this one seriously or to do a fun one, but an amalgam should be better? 😛
1) Write, write and keep writing. And not just poetry, I want to try some fiction/ prose too. I have been planning to start writing books for long, have the stories in mind, but well, prose demands things which poetry doesn’t. And yes I have an idea for a drama script too. The idea, the substance everything clear, but then, exams in 5 months- ugh!
It is not just about getting published or something. For a while, I did think that trying to get published was a good goal, but then realized that it was quite futile. Every time I pick up the pen/sit in front of the screen to write, it is about me. It is a journey, into myself and that is what is important.
2) Act. I love acting. And I don’t mind playing parts which others might not be willing to do. I think this is something that every writer will like to do. When you can construct characters, you can play them as well. As I said, I want to write that script and hopefully I am able to do it 🙂
3)Studies:-
i)CA:-  That’s what I am doing right now. The course demands the use of your head, so it is not at all bad. Only thing though, I need to start studying more 😛
ii) Economics:- This is a subject which has always intrigued me. One reason might be that, the subject doesn’t demand much “studying” as such, it is based on understanding. After I finish CA I might be doing something related to economics(hopefully).
4) Societal goals:- I believe education is the key. Education as in everything and anything that helps nurture a person(In this respect, blogging I will say has played a part in my education). So I intend to do something in those lines, maybe start an education institution.
5) Travelling and photography:- This is something which I want to do, explore the world. Of course it will help if I can someone who is willing to travel along with me 😉 I love taking photos( does it really matter how good or bad I really am 😛 ) ,so yes hopefully I can shoot something worth while.
6) Designing:- Maybe not my natural forte, but then again, I like trying to do creative things 🙂 SO hopefully I can get to do some serious designing.
7) Music:- Well want to concentrate more on violin and tabla 😛 Music is magic. Whether you listen or play, it does take you on a wonderful ride 🙂
8) Nothing:- Discover how people can do “nothing” and from there learn more about the human mind 😛
9) Languages:- I want to learn Sanskrit and Latin 🙂 These two because, I want to read for myself, how our ancestors thought.  Much has been derived from what’s written in these two languages and I would like to read and find out for myself 🙂
10) Football:- This is something which very dear to me, Second only to writing. The game’s got something about it. Who knows maybe I can own a team in the future? 😛
11) Carpe Diem:- Of all the above thing, this is the one. 😀 😉
Anyway hopefully the future holds something good 🙂 I never write down my ambitions, goals etc, some how hate seeing them on paper. These things form a very small fraction of what I want to do. But then achieving is not merely having the desire, but then having the ability to fulfil your desires.
I like to think that the future is going to hold what I want it to hold. And yes, I avoided, talking about love, rather deliberately 😉  We will see 🙂 And now I pass on this tag to:-
1) Swathi
2) Fruity
3)Aarti
4)Arch
5)Alps
Tigers? How about people or books or roads ??
June 5, 2009 § 15 Comments
So after a week of travelling and staying in a super hot hill station which is about 2.2 Kms above sea level am back 😀 😀 😀
And as the title suggests I have found 0 tigers . Too bad that none was brave enough to show up . I wanted one to scare the monsters away 😉
Â
I have discovered many things in this trip , including the fact that Tamil Nadu has developed a lot and places which I thought were villages have CCD ( ya a bad measuring unit but still) and traffic jams and star hotels and pretty well furnished with humans 😛 Â
Of all the books mentioned in the previous post only one has been done with and that is the book on google ( not to mention my study material being weights to make sure that the balance in the car is maintained and I have a test on Sunday!!) .
Have taken a lot of photos and for the first time took more than 3 photos of people 😛 (too lazy to upload now 😛 shall post them soon 😀 ) . Also am planning to write a travel log( been a while and have got lots to say about the roads).
My google reader showed me about 240 unread posts and well the number won’t make me the majority in the parliment so just pressed mark all as read( I have a test on Sunday!! ) .
And though it is just a mock test on Sunday , I am supposed to do well ( ya people think I am someone from the nether world where the glow of the lava helped me study better 😛 ) so well the post may have to wait for another 40 hours or so ( me and my love for measuring , damn it 1/ 0 my toe! ) .
Finally the voting shall follow soon , once we judges are done with picking the fattest tiger to shoot 😀Â

the pinnacle race
June 2, 2008 § 6 Comments
every place has its tale,
every place has its way,
yet what is common is,
that all places are
now filled with the human race-
the pinnacle race,
which, with its gaze,
has made the earth’s face,
scarred and scared to look at.
IN KODAI
May 30, 2008 § 7 Comments
the mountain mists descend,
the heat has been made to bend,
the rains pour-incessant,
no thirst left to quench.
smoke on the water,
the nights become colder,
silence prevails,for the better,
everwhere there is green cover.
crowds like their cycles,
also their lake-walks,
a couple of parks
and the famous landmarks.
a better world,without worry?
or what i see is just of the sojourn
and not the local born,
will the treasure of nature live on?
roads pass under my feet
May 29, 2008 § 1 Comment
roads pass under my feet,
as fast as my thoughts pass.
i move towards them,
they dissapear under
my feet.a few moments you
sense you have passed them,
and try to recount the moments,
but with better things to see,
you forget about them
and move on,
what was there,will be,
what you see,might remain
but thoughts don’t matter,
action do,so we go on.
p.s.: i am in Kodai,on a holiday 🙂 its pouring cats and dogs and i am locked up in my room 🙂 So a recollection no the road,will be writing a review when i come back 🙂
