Bon Jovi
Heard a 1 min preview of Bon Jovi's latest song Everyday from their latest album Bounce on Capital FM Internet Radio on full blast on my head phones (so that I can hear it at full blast and not wake up the house..hehe!) and the song ROCKS! It's a total rock type song, loud and strong! It sounded great and Jon Bon Jovi's voice was as sexy as ever!

Amrita - The Book
While surfing the Internet today I came across a Book by the name "Amrita"(which happens to be my name) by a Japanese author Banana Yoshimoto. Well it was surprising...Japanese author...Indian name...maybe the name has some relevance in Japanese! I'm going to get my hands on a copy of the Book...I don't know how as I don't think it's available in India..maybe I'll just order it online.

Driving
I started Driving school today once again after 2 years. I learnt driving 2 years back and got a license made which said that I was 19 years old when I was actually just 16. Anything's possible in India if you're just willing to pay! That license now says that I'm 21 eventhough I've just turned 18. So I'm going to overcome my fear of driving on those terrible roads with the terribly horrible drivers, rickshaw drivers, cabbies, cyclists, motorcyclists, COWS, potholes, pedestrians etc. As well as getting a license with my proper age.
I recieved the animations below in my e-mail courtesy Saurabh. Thought I'd put it up..it's kinda cute...and I'll put it up on the site later....

Devdas
Went for the movie Devdas today. It's pretty good.... Well if Rs. 50 crores go into the making of a film it better be good! The "Dola re Dola" song sequence and the sets were absolutely SUPERB. AIshwarya Rai looked great!
While walking home from the theatre it started raining and insted of taking a rick home I decided to get wet. That was really really cool.... 20 mins in the rain..was thoroughly drenched but felt gr8.

Which clothes should I be wearing test
I tried out the above test and the result was GAP. I'm happy with the result...just wished that GAP was a bit more reasonably priced ...even in sales it's so damn expensive.

Guestmap
I just checked out my Guestmap on my Seadreamer... site and saw that all the previous guestmap entries had disappeared and Saurabh had *finally* signed his location! But Saurabh if ure reading this you'll have to change it since you've shifted from London to New York City. Glad I didn't put a Guestmap on Margarita's in the Sky... It's crap anyway. Nobody signs the Guestmap nor the Guestbook. Hey Guys atleast sign the Guestbook as a sign of appreciation! You ppl tell me online and offline that your site's really good n all but isn't it better to mention the stuff in the guestbook...afterall that's whats it there for!

Bend it Like Beckham
Bend it like Beckham! That's a wicked movie. No wonder I could bear watching it three times! Yup, you read right...3 times. Three times too many! First time being in London three weeks back and then twice this week in Mumbai. Yeah the movie is good but I just went for it again cause my friends were going for it too not because I was crazy about the movie. The movies great and the soundtrack is also decent...i remembered one of my old favourites....Inner Smile by Texas. Other recommended songs from the movie soundtrack are Hot Hot Hot - Bina Mistry, Darshan - B21, Do Your Thing - Basement Jaxx, Independence Day - Melanie C, Baddest Ruffest - Backyard Dog. If you haven't seen the movie you're missing out on a lot. To know more about the movie check out the links below.

18 til' I die
Lyrics of the song 18 til' I die by the great Bryan Adams rightfully sums up my motto in life which is to be 18 til' I Die. I know it's not possible to be the *age* 18 all throughout your life...life can't become stationary at a particular age but atleast you can be 18 mentally if not physically.
Wanna be young - the rest of my life
Never say no - try anything twice
Til the angels come - and ask me to fly
Gonna be 18 til I die - 18 til I die
Can't live forever - that's wishful thinkin'
Who ever said that - must of bin' drinkin'
Don't wanna grow up - I don't see why
I couldn't care less if time flies by
18 til I die - gonna be 18 til I die
Ya it sure feels good to be alive
Someday I'll be 18 goin' on 55! - 18 til I die
Anyway - I just wanna say
Why bother with what happened yesterday
That's not my style - I live for the minute
If ya wanna stay young - get both feet in it - 18 til I die
A 'lil bit of this - a 'lil bit of that
'Lil bit of everything - get ya right on track
It's not how ya look, it's what ya feel inside
Don't care how - don't need ta know why
Don't worry 'bout the future
Forget about the past
Gonna have a ball - ya gonna have a blast
Gonna make it last
Artist of the Day - Bryan Adams

I am NOT bored
Someone just asked me today..Are you bored that your making your 2nd website in 4 months? I just want to clarify it out with him that No I am not bored. I just like making sites and that's it. I've just returned from a one month long holiday and the jet lag would keep me up all night. Having nothing to do I started making Mararita's in the Sky... and it was finished in 4 nights flat. It's not tough to make websites as the common misconception is...once you have the hang of it, it's like writing English. People have different interests. A friend of mine has done all the cooking classes possible + candle making + gift wrapping classes cause she's interested in it. Similarly, I'm interested in making sites and that's what I'm doing. I've taken up Information Technology engineering and the first thing people ask me is, "Aren't you scared of the condition of the Computer industry currently? You should have taken something safer like Electronics." But I feel that it doesn't matter what is a safe subject or not as long as you are interested in it and it appeals to you. And that's what it is.

My Birthday Celebrations are FINALLY over!!!!!!
Yippee!!! My 18th birthday celebrations are finally over for once and for all. Wondering why I'm happy that the celebrations are over when people yearn for their b'day celebrations???
Hehe..the reason behind that is because I had celebrated my birthday atleast 7 times from 30th June when my birthday actually fell on the 11th July. I was on holiday in Canada and the occasion of my 18th birthday was celebrated wherever we went and whichever restaurant we dined at whether it was in Toronto, Montreal or Ottawa. The Canadians are really really sweet...... on knowing that it was my birthday they would get me complimentary dessert or ice-cream with a candle or sparkler. At 12:00 am IST on 11th July I was aboard the plane and my birthday was celebrated out there as well in the First-Class Section. Now that I've treated my school and college friends for my 18th birthday the celebrations are finally over and I am happy as well as unhappy that they are. Afterall your birthday comes only once a year and especially your 18th birthday when you turn legal and are no longer called a kid but a grown up! All I can say is that it was a birthday that will never be forgotten...adios 18th birthday of mine! And hey all you friends and family thanks for making it so very special and thanks for all those gifts as well!

Song of the Day- Dola re Dola from the movie Devdas

Hello All! Here goes my first shot at blogging....I wonder how this will turn out to be....
Most of you'll must be wondering what are blogs? Well in simple terms it's just a diary published on the WWW.
The history behind my wish to blog goes somewhat like this...
Well while researching for ideas and material while making my first site Seadreamer... I first came across Blogs. I found them to be very interesting being stuff out of daily life, fiction etc. Starting this blog was a random and last minute decision and hence I wonder what sort of writer am I. I might make a complete blog site like the ones I first came across.
Well that's it for now...my jet-lag seems to get to me at all the weirdest times,
ciao and love,
