Food for the soul :)

Tomato Soup

This one was a little spicy though.

Pringles

A little sweet, a little sour...

I came across this song Mera Jahan - Taare Zameen Par, while watching the movie. There was a comment that it mildly resembles the golom song but I guess it resembles "Sting - Desert Rose".

Here are both the songs. Some one please tell me that it's not my imagination running wild :-)

November Rain

I was able to take a few rain pics outside our lab :)

Mysore palace

Some snaps of the Mysore palace, taken during last months visit :-) This palace is pure royalty and has a stunning interior.

The weird duck

This one recently hit the news for its weird appearance. Some attribute it to the recent oil slick from the tanker that crashed close by and scientists argue the bright patches to be total internal reflection on surface of the water.



An interesting news clip on this rare phenomenon is available to the interested reader by clicking here.

Haste to the wedding

8 random facts

I was asked to write 8 random things about me by a friend.

Here goes

I like the wind.
I like autumn and spring.
I like my friends.
I like coffee.
Like to travel.
Like to stroll in the park.
Like to visit the river side.
Like train travel during the monsoon.

On marriage

I happened to hear this conversation between my grandmother and our neighbour back at our village. This neighbour(a young girl), probably 18 or 19 years old was getting married next month.
My grandmother asked her why she was marrying that particular guy and she said-" See, he has two cows, six hen and four ducks at home. I can play with them when he is away for work."

I am stunned!

Breathe

Breathe, breathe in the air
Don't be afraid to care
Leave but don't leave me
Look around and chose your own ground
For long you live and high you fly
And smiles you'll give and tears you'll cry
And all you touch and all you see
Is all your life will ever be

Run, rabbit, run
Dig that hole, forget the sun,
And when at last the work is done
Don't sit down, it's time to dig another one
For long you live and high you fly
But only if you ride the tide
And balanced on the biggest wave
You race toward an early grave.

Mannerism


This lady was munching on corn as if it was a banana.

Sunset

Was able to capture the sunset on the opposite side of the beach.

By the Beach-1

Its been raining in Chennai and the weather has been pleasant for the past few weeks. This one is the fourth beach I'm trying out in Chennai. I have been to quite a few beaches but the ones in Chennai are not what I wished it to be. As expected, they are crowded and dirty. I guess its mainly because one can't smell the sea in Chennai and its totally void of any birds except for crows and the sea breeze feels just like the wind everywhere else in Chennai. Its also noisy that you can't hear the waves splashing either.

I took a few snaps using my friends camera.

Pic outside our lab

This one was shot by my friend with over 10 x zoom. It disappeared soon after this shot.

Some Movies

Some movies are great. This time I got to watch Apocalypto. It was saddening to watch it and in the end left me with a strong sense of dislike towards human civilization. The next morning I woke up with a bad headache. The one thing that brightened the day is this picture that I came across, on the internet. It's good to see that some mammals get along well though humans do not.

Mama - Terra Naomi

A simple and expressive song.

Rambling

Watched quite a few(around 8) of Meg Ryan's and other movies this month. But then two others turned out to be great. Two beautiful movies -"Under the The Tuscan Sun" and "Before Sunrise". The first one is simply great for its maturity and lack of nonsense and the second one for its mixture of intelligent and unintelligent dialogue , which makes it real.
