away…

Filed under: General

really, i cant explain why i was away better than to say that a) i had technical issues with my laptop, and more importantly b) i was really really busy.

i’m acting in this play due to go on boards at the wendt from the 9th-11th of september, and rehearsals are just beginning to heat up, director is beginning to slowly go insane, and the cast is beginning to feel helpless and stressed out. what else is new?

i kind of miss my brother. everytime he goes away i’m always left wishing we had a better rapport, that i knew more about him somehow, that we connected easier. with my brother, it’s always been about three things. mystery, mystery, mystery. i never ‘get’ him, never know much about him and his life, and thats kind of sad, because from what little i know, i do know he has a most exciting life. i better pen off this subject before i start saying things i’ll regret! :)

also, tracy (my friend, not my teacher) is taking up a fair bit of my time! quite willingly mind you, i find myself seeing her on a daily basis, and we’re spending every possible spare minute going back to our eccentric and slightly weird ways. i know i know….i’ve been told a variety of things, ranging from ‘are you guys, like, joint at the hip?’ (yes, we are) to ‘GET A ROOM!’ (charming idea, thanks). i can barely believe she is going back in another two weeks, and she has already been here for as long.

i watched (as savi has already informed many of you) mangal pandey. i was truly impressed, being a little cynical yet simultaneously intriguued by ‘hindi’ movies. aamir khan is a truly gifted actor, he carries this role off with flair and feeling, both sturdy and sensitive at the same time, and yet not overly melo dramatic (meaning he doesnt bawl and slobber and shit). i just sat there thinking ’shah rukh khan could never play this role’! rani mukerji, a personal favourite of mine anyway, is also pretty damn stunning. the film, on the whole, is exceptionally well made. the music, by a r rahman, is fantastic (hence the ’song scenes’ are more than bearable), the cinematography is beautiful (the sets, the locations, the way all of it is shot is simply breathtaking), and the stroy line is interesting (the torn-apart-lovers dont even take the main stage, how cool is that?).

my life goes on, full steam ahead. await the finalized list of hotties…

  1. hey girl, stuck in the middle of a boring day at office….sigh….you make mangal pandey seem rather intriguing, and thats quite a feat considering how much i despise most hindi movies. where’s it running by the way?

  3. a) i had technical issues with my laptop, and more importantly b) i was really really busy c) my spell and grammer checker is still not working d) the shift key isn’t working e) I think there are square minutes like inches…..

  5. to get a bit nerdly off topic, scourge, in the four-dimensional space time continuum space and time are not much different. so square seconds and square inches both can exist

  6. According to the theory of relativity, three dimentional space and time treated together as a four dimentional object, is what we call space-time continuum. I can’t quite understand how, space and time are so much alike that time also has two or three axis where you can calculate area in terms of time or volume in terms of time. You cannot have an area of time, its quite impossible.

    Also, Space-Time Continua is the place (or box or area or whatever you want to call it) all physical events take place.

  7. my understanding is that all four dimensions of spacetime are similar and we only perceive them differently. (is there a arrow of time?)
    but i am not a physicist and may be wrong so lets not argue here. for those interested see here
    and here.

  8. alright, both of you are obviously very intelligent and know your physics lingo intimidatingly well…but i actually have not come across a bigger blooper in a long time. scourge, i said ‘we’re spending every possible spare minute’. check the post for clarification. SPARE, SPARE. not square. so there was actually no need at all for this conversation to have begun. perfectly literate aren’t we?

    unless you two are like…trying to impress the girls or something.
