Gothika

Great Thriller of a movie... captivating... keeps your nerves on the edge... the plot gets a little too predictable towards the end but the cinematography and the drama keeps you plugged in...
Needless to say... a must watch for all Halley fans... she looks simply fabulous... damn she looks so pretty you almost feel sorry for her marrying the fat husband of hers...

Authenticity

Today i heard something about forging Letterheads for MBA Applications... simply because the company doesn't provide letterheads for personal use without "adequate" questioning... so someone just thought of a simpler way.... get your own letterhead...
All this .... just to be a little more "Authentic" in the recommendations...

Amongst other absurd things

Getting super special paper for admissions photocopy.... well a friend of mine does that every time she has to send a paper...She s not alone... am I the one sitting on an island??? I still need to figure out...

Mock Interview

I finally got the details of the interviewer today. The guy is in a pretty senior position with a leading ceramics venture in India. What remains to be seen is
1. When will the interview be scheduled - Tomorrow is out of the question...i will be in office and don't think i can go without at least a day's notice..
2. Where will it be scheduled. - I don't think i want to travel all the way to bahadurgarh... meeting him on the reception night would be good...

I had my mock interview today... an hour before the interview i had the most terrible case of butterflies in the stomach.. not surprising for a guy who hasnt faced an interview in over an year... surprising for a guy who interviews and tears apart at least 2 people every week...
The interview went off pretty fine... more so because of my passion to join D...

my application to UNC is still hanging midway... hope to finish off the essays today... May the FORCE be with me.....

Die she must??

Well Casino Royale lives upto its name except for the fact they forgot that it was a Bond movie... certainly if the movie was a tinge more mushier... i would ve taken out the tissues and wipe my tears off... it was pathetic... it was mushy.. and yes the women die!!!
Its like the curse of the 'James Bond'... make love to him and die...

Between Eva Green and Caterina Murino.. i couldnt decide whom i liked better... here they are both.. decide for yourself...



















Quote :
Solange : That would tip him over the edge. I am not that cruel.
James : May be you are just out of practice.

~You bet i loved the kisses though~

Full Circle...

life comes a full circle... it has ended where it began from ... it started with a phone call on a day like today.. when i was on my way to 'tzers'... and today when i left 'tzers'... 4 beers and a tequila shot confirmed that i had infact done the right thing...:)
Things are best left in the hands of God and try though we may... its destined in the stars to end in a certain way...
much like the shepherd of "The Alchemist", its our duty to chase our dreams... whether they do or do not fructify... is totally on our destiny...

:) keep smiling... be good...

Wailisted... so what....

Well i mean why... why does it even matter that i was waitlisted... i always have the brighter side to look at...
1. i dont have to pay a deposit that early now... since i dont get in that early...
2. well thats another kick in the ass (pants too) to work harder.
3. I am still alive and breathing...

I am happy that God is with me... filling each day with music, with experiences, with people... talking of which .. i need to thank Him for
1. Keeping my mind occupied and the devil out
2. Introducing new people
3. Giving me new opportunities ( i am going to present a paper in tomorrows CSR and volunteering conference )
4. Making my friends see good things in me even though i am so full of **it...( i was contacted by 12 people from all over the world... i am truly blessed )

LOVE YOU GOD... ROCK MY BOAT

Giddy up

The end is in sight, yes the flesh is weak, the mind is wavering, the spirit too low... time to giddy up and finish off this last "piece" of business...

Solace

3 Things i miss when i am in India

1. Its the same weather day in and day out.
2. I miss the explorer in me and feeling of accomplishment that comes with him.
3. The time i get to sit and think in absolute and unadultrated silence.

3 Things I miss the most when i am away from Home
1. Having a walk with my father
2. Biting into a Gulab Jamun
3. crowded streets of delhi

3 Things i'll miss when i'll leave the face of the earth

1. the company, concern, love, guidance, doting, pampering of my parents
2. the time i had (am having) with friends ;)
3. and of course... juicy food...

Net Findings -->
I already have all i need to be happy, donno need anything more.
"if my life is for rent, and i dont learn to buy, i deserve nothing more than i get, 'cause nothing i have is truly mine"

Not a penny less....

Today was wonderful... i finally got my iPod Shuffle today... 512 Mb of pure, personal pleasure.... the best thing about this light sharp white colored gadget happens to be that i didnt have to shell out a penny... (Hell thats what elder brothers are for...)

I also got myself a black formal suit... which incidentally happens to be my second suit... the first one was done about 5 yrs ago just before brother's marriage... i have my fingers crossed...hope i can put this new suit to some good use... get some calls...

new sports shoes... well what more could i ask for....
i feel like bowing like mike myers did in "Wayne's world"... "i am not worthy ;)"

Love Bites

If you've got love in your sites
Watch out, love bites

When you make love, do you look in the mirror?
Who do you think of?
Does he look like me?
Do you tell lies?
And say that it's forever?
Do you think twice, or just touch and see
Ooh babe
Ooh yeah
When you're alone, do you let go?
Are you wild and willin or is it just for show?
Ooh C'mon

I don't wanna touch you too much baby
'Cos making love to you might drive me crazy
I know you think that love is the way you make it
So I don't wanna be there when you decide to break it
No!

Chorus
(Love bites, love bleeds)
It's bringin' me to my knees
(Love lives, love dies)
It's no surprise
(Love begs, love pleads)
It's what I need


When I'm with you, are you somewhere else?
Am I gettin' thru or do you please yourself?
When you wake up, will you walk out?
It can't be love if you throw it about
Ooh babe

I don't wanna touch you too much baby
'Cos making love to you might drive me crazy
Oh

Chorus
(Love bites, love bleeds)
It's bringin' me to my knees
(Love lives, love dies)
It's no surprise
(Love begs, love pleads)
It's what I need

Oh yeah!

I don't wanna touch you too much baby
'Cos making love to you might drive me crazy
I know you think that love is the way you make it
So I don't wanna be there when you decide to break it
No!


(Love bites, love bleeds)
It's bringin' me to my knees
(Love lives, love dies)

(Love bites, love bleeds)
It's bringin' me to my knees
(Love lives, love dies)
It's no surprise
(Love begs, love pleads)
It's what I need

If you've got love in your sights
Watch out, love bites
Yes it does
Bloody Hell

Stuck on you

Stuck on you
I've got this feeling down deep in my soul that I just can't lose
Guess I'm on my way
Needed a friend
And the way I feel now I guess I'll be with you 'til the end
Guess I'm on my way
Mighty glad you stayed

(I'm stuck on you)
I'm stuck on you
I'm stuck on you

Stuck on you
Been a fool too long I guess it's time for me to come on home
Guess I'm on my way (hey baby)
So hard to see
That a woman like you could wait around for a man like me
Guess I'm on my way
I'm mighty glad you stayed

Oh girl, I'm stuck on you
And I can't stop loving you (stuck on you)
I've been a fool for way too long
Stuck on you
Oh girl, I'm stuck on you
And I can't stop loving you (stuck on you)
I've been a fool for way too long

Oh, I'm leaving on that midnight train tomorrow
And I know just where I'm going
I've packed up my troubles and I've thrown them all away
'Cause this time little darling
I'm coming home to stay (ooh)

I'm stuck on you
I've got this feeling down deep in my soul that I just can't lose
Guess I'm on my way
I needed a friend
And the way I feel now I guess I'll be with you 'til the end
Guess I'm on my way
I'm mighty glad you stayed

Oh girl, I'm stuck on you
And I can't stop loving you (stuck on you)
I've been a fool for way too long
Stuck on you
Oh girl, I'm stuck on you
And I can't stop loving you (stuck on you)
I've been a fool for way too long

Stuck on you

Oh girl, I'm stuck on you
And I can't stop loving you (stuck on you)
I've been a fool for way too long
Stuck on you
Oh girl, I'm stuck on you
And I can't stop loving you (stuck on you)
I've been a fool for way too long

Guess I'm on my way

I'm mighty glad you stayed

Finally i managed to submit all my Essays to McCombs. Somehow i never located the link to resend the essays earlier. It would have saved lot of heartburn.
