I'm Back

I'm back after a long sabbatical. Every time i enter my blog i make a promise to myself to write at least one entry a week. However, i never fulfilled that promise. It's weird that i never attempt to write blog when i'm free. In fact i'll be so free that i'll be 'roaming' around and reading others' blogs but not mine. And out of blue when i'm very busy and have things to do,i'll attempt to write a blog shelving all the works that i have to do. As for now, i have 1 assignment due in 2 days and a test tomorrow afternoon..and here I am cracking my head on what to write.May be i'm too exhausted preparing for academic things that i'm using my blog as a diversion.
Actually i just realised that i have a relatively very short span of attention and it has been gradually decreasing without me realising it. I can't do anything for long as i get bored easily. I remember when i was fascinated by arts and tried my hand at it (it's a very known fact among my friends and my art teachers that i suck at it). So i bought a drawing pad, poster colours and tried drawing. I think i never really 'produced' any drawing as i got depressed half way
and tore off 'my drawing'. Then i tried the other form of arts (like pasting leaves on a paper to create images, using matchsticks to 'create' a house..yadda..yadda..) which was short lived too. Then as i grow older, i fall in love with cross-stitch. I took initiative learning it and practised and eventually managed (!) to complete the replica of a tiny Micky Mouse but i never framed it as i shelved it once i was done with it. Recently before i came to Australia, during the long break i thought i could do it again. And mom was warning me again and again on my short-lived interests before. But i was adamant..so this time i bought a big replica of a scenery and worked on it for kinda of long. Then , eventually i finished it and again tied it in a bag and threw it somewhere in the room. And now i'm thinking of doing it again...
I think it's the same with my blogging too. I don't know when my next visit is going to be...may be when i'm having another test or assign? :p

BGM by A.R.Rahman

I have always been a great fan of A.R. Rahman not only as a Musician but also as a person for his humble view on the world. Being a good fan, i never missed any of his new compositions. Whenever his album releases, despite all the hooplas from the media, i'll always be very anxious during his album release (just worried that he'll give a mediocre album which will disappoint me). Besides his songs, i always wanted to get hold of his BGMs especially Alaipayuthe (being my fav movie), Sillunu Oru kathal, Bombay but could not get it . In fact i thought, nobody bothers about BGM of movies till recently i found a website imeem.com which hosts a vast collection of music especially BGM scores by the Mozart of Madras. Upon stumbling across the website i got so excited that i have been playing the BGMs again and again. And Guess what...My ringtones are changed to BGM scores. :p

Two Days to go!

Well the countdown has begun and no i'm not really expecting something big. It's just that i have a self-test which will prove the existence of new me in 2 days time. Am i eager? hmm kinda of. Am i nervous? huh..a little bit. But i would say i have surprised myself with my pre-reaction. If it's the old me, i would have spent sleepless nights thinking of what is stored and how i'm going to face it. I still remember, years ago i was supposed to meet a person who has nothing to do with me (just an acquaintance..not even so) and i was so nervous that my heart start somersaulting in my chest when i met the person and as you would have guessed i made a complete fool of myself. So that's when i gave up the idea of meeting new people face to face as i'm a unsociable freak (may be am being to harsh on myself). But today here i am, fixing a date to meet such person and not feeling any 'pre-meeting' syndrome. Just that, at moments when i think about it, i feel like i have made a mistake and should jut stayed as old Ramyah and should not have shed my comfy shell. But sometimes you have to do some silly things to prove yourself not to others but to you. So i have taken a decision to leave my shell and try a new thing which is soooo normal for the rest of the world but me! Will post very soon on how i made it( so made myself a fool again):p
