This is a list that has been compiled over many, many vetti lab sessions. No continuity whatsoever. It's just a collection of things i like to do, in a completely random order. Yes, i said 'random order'. I believe in chaos theory. :)
I love to
1. Go kwazeeeeeeeee!!
2. Play Happyland adventures.
3. Make weird posters for my room! Come visit, you'll see!
4. Draw, though i know i can't.
5. Watch the worsht chick flicks with my friends and then think about how jobless we are to be
watching chick flicks.
6. Watch good movies and pass comments on how the actor looks.
7. Sit in the lawn, alone, drink tea and watch the sunset.
8. make people laugh, even if it means making a fool of myself.
9. Sit in the rain and drink hot chocolate.
10. Jump on my bed.
11. Make fat jokes. That will continue even if i lose weight.
12.fight with friends over silly difference of opinions and then after a few months laugh abt it till we cry. I don't like the fighting part but i sure do love the part where we make fun of each other for fighting!
13.try programming. I know I'm really bad, but executing even a simple program on my own gives me happiness beyond measure.
14. *wink* :)
15.have a long conversation with a friend after a long time
16.sing, croak, bark, bray, make pressure cooker sound, make weird faces,and anything and everything under the sun that could even slightly indicate that living in a single room is more of a necessity than an option.
17.play pacman. best game ever, seriously.
18.type the same thing again and again and again and again and again. Okay, this could go on forever. And by type, i don't mean ctrl+c and ctrl+v.
19.forget about my blog. Again, the forgetting part is not great, but realizing after a long time that i do own a blog where i can type anything i want to,is an amazing feeling. Seriously.
20.drink barrels and barrels of buttermilk and feel so full that i need three people to carry me back to my room!
21.make fun of random people on the road, includes imitation of the way they walk, talk, move their fingers etc.
22. spend time with myself. i know i live alone and all, but i can't seem to get enough of myself.
23.Watch friends. It's sort of an addiction.
24.watch Hugh Laurie in House M.D. The show as such is good, but he makes it so good that i can even bunk exams to watch him all day.
25.study. Sometimes, if the mood sets in,it's hard to stop.Really.
26.Try out new things when i go out to eat. The latest was this visit to coffee world, where i had this drink called 'cloud nine'. The description said it'll make me turn blue and then purple, i guess for me it was the other way round!
27.misspell words delibratly. I know it's not funny but who said i have a normal sense of humor? :D
28.Color like mad. I love crayons and i think they are best used when I randomly kirikkify.
29.have intense discussions on any topic with a bunch of friends. It's fun to get to know others' opinions.
30.talk to my brother. Miss you bro! :(
31.Listen to music. Dunno if i can live without my music collection. I guess i can, but i don't really want to.
32.eat anything related to chocolate. Icecreams, cookies, cakes, pastries, ANYTHING.
33.have maggi with kurkure. Fe came up with the combo and it's mindblowing!
34. Irritate fe. :)
35.Draw tattoos. My friends think I'm good at it :)
36.chat with someone after a long time. Friend or not, just knowing that there's someone who used to study or play with you, is such a nice feeling.
37.ride my cycle. Yes, I still go cycling. It feels soooo good to go down a slope at maddening speeds!
38.Wear my loose, dhola dhola white tee. *grin* :)
39.just sit and think about the goooood times :)
40.watch the stars.
41. hold squirrels. This is something i discovered quite recently.
42.eat my mom's food. I swear, noone can cook better than her!
43.loosen up my limbs and move them in a completely random fashion. Can't call it dance, but can't call it anything else either!
44.draw on myself.
45.recover from setbacks. That's something that keeps me going.
46.spend time choosing what to buy.
47.go to an amusement park!
48.play with my nephew.This definitely tops the list. But again, this list is in no specific order.
49.Rest my tired limbs after a good deal of exhaustion.
50.Be happy and content and cheerful and chirpy all the time!

DASAVATHARAM
Well, this isn't what i call a review. As usual, since i only have a fuzzy idea in mind, i don't know what it's gonna shape up to be, so here goes. I watched the movie in Benglooru, (forgive my spelling). For one, the ticket prices are bloody expensive. But going into that is starting another story altogether about inflation and other technical subjects i dare not tread upon, so let me stick to the movie bit. Well, to put it in a nutshell, it was passable. But just that one comment on a movie so extravagant would not suffice, so I'll go into the details. The first part of the movie, where they portray a real life incident which took place like 5 centuries back, was impressive, sets and all. Kamalhaasan had a lot of showing off to do, and for once i felt he flaunted more skin than Mallika Sherawat. Napolean didn't act, or if he did, it was masked by his big larger-than-life beard.The music was surprisingly good. The minute i heard that Himesh Reshammiya was the music director, i swore not to watch the movie, but once i heard the soundtrack, it was quite decent and i changed my mind. The first song could have had amazing , but again, something was lacking. I guess acting. All i remember of the first song was Asin trying to cry, and Napolean trying to navigate the boats in a direction that only seemed to be the middle of the sea. Kamal, definitely, no doubt about his acting. But the rest of them could have at least tried to come up to half his level of acting.
I won't give out the rest of the story here cuz otherwise my friends who haven't yet watched the movie will physically strangle me. Not that there exist non-physical mothods of strangulation, but still. Anyway, getting back to the movie, my favourite song was Mukunda Mukunda. Melodious and sweet. The makeup of the old lady was very well appreciated in reviews, but i kind of found it unbelievable. Maybe because i haven't seen a 90 year old woman. Ah, forgot to mention Christian Fletcher. He had nice stunts, and i thought it would be fun to watch the makeup slightly drip or fade as the action intensified, but thanks to Kamals perfection, i missed out on the fun. Many people found the telugu guy extremely funny. The jokes, if cracked by me in my hostel, would get me numerous stares and growls from my friends and they would instantly classify them under the mokkai category. But since the jokes were cracked in an A.C theatre in the midst of a considerably large crowd, it was well received. Then comes the chinese guy, who i think was there in the movie only for kamal to play yet another character. Then the extremely tall guy, whose innocence was overwhelming. Then the righteous guy, and hey, i assure you,only his voice sounded like kamal. He put up a very believable accent. How can i forget Avatar singh? Again there in the movie only to make it run for 3 hours. The bullet magically curing his throat cancer gave the audience their money's worth. They had after all come to see a tamil movie, and OBVIOUSLY,they had expectations. Well i guess that's about it. At least that's all i have to say about Kamal. Mallika, the usual. Too cheesy, and the dubbing was horrible. She only fit the role because she probably fit into size zero clothes as well. Jayapradha,the movie was definitely not a platform to show off her talent. Asin, wasted. She got quite irritating in the middle. Actually throughout the movie. The character she played was quite clearly for the romance factor. Not really contributing towards anything else. And ah, one thing i hated about the movie was the way they kept killing people. One second they were there, delivering a dialogue, and just as i thought their character had an important role to play, BAM! Shoot Shoot Shoot, AND he/she is dead.
What really caught my attention was what Kamal said at the end of the movie. It was obviously in tamil, and it roughly translates to english as follows.
Asin: Whatever you do, please don't say god isn't there.
Kamal: I never said god isn't there. I only said it would be nice if he is.
Actually speaking, i wanted to base my post on those two lines, but since this blog is long enough to bore you, I'll keep that more interesting topic for later. I at least don't have to sit in front of my comp and figure out what to write the next time.
P.S- Didn't feel like i gave an apt conclusion. Overall, if you're a fan of Kamalhaasan,amazing makeup and a chase-me-all-around-the-world story, go watch dasavatharam! If you have seen it already, comment! Well, comment anyway! :D

An easy way out
The look in your eyes says it all;
You're all set to flee,
not ready to think back, recall;
that the fault, mistake, all lies on thee.
Just a moment won't you take?
to realize, accept and move on?
Instead, if you wish to put at stake
our relationship, then all is gone.
The outcome of an argument
should never be to part ways,
cuz then, whatever we ever meant
to each other, will just fade away.
A difference of opinion - let it remain,
We're different people- can't think the same!
let's patch up - forget the pain,
it's after all "US" - let there be none to blame.
Now how simple this is, you see?
All it took was a few lines of poetry!
I've resolved everything inside me,
Now the question is, will you agree?
P.S- As is quite obvious, this was written after a small fight. Not exactly a fight, more in my words, a difference of opinion. I know I've tried a lame rhyming technique, but hey! I'm not here to win a competition!
