Life At Siruseri-2

Recharge Chargin
The recharge show's up. This is about the first recharge for my mobile at Siruseri. Well, this journey also begins on a hot and sultry afternoon after having a sumptuous lunch. It's been 3 days since the balance on my mobile fell to 0.11 rupees. Finally, I had to recharge due to the orders from my house. This time I did not want to go on a bicycle as I thought I found some shop just outside SIPCOT. So, I walked out and went to the street and found all the shops closed. I finally found a shop which was jus about to close and walked to the shopkeeper to ask about the information about the availability of a place to recharge my mobile. So, he suggested Navalur. Hence I walked along (i have a knowledge about the distance ... after my first experience).
My disastrous fate did not leave me yet ..... the two shops which offer recharge were shut down on the occasion of Kaanum Pongal ( i rarely realize the dates of festivals unless it's a holiday).

Hence I was suggested to go to Shozhinganallur (the same place where I found the bank). This time, I relapsed my stupid ideas and took an MTC bus and reached the place. I searched 3 shops and finally got it recharged. Success...at last. I went to the bus stop to take a bus to the SIPCOT gate. Only after I got into the bus did I realize that I had no change and had money with least denomination at 50 rupees. The conductor shot at me look of utmost contempt and gave me 9 coins of 5 rupees each. That's almost as heavy 200+ gms. So, you should have seen the look on my face at that moment...even I smiled at myself imagining of that situation after coming back to the hostel.
But there's another thing that happened on the bus. A highly amusing moment. The bus conductor gave the person sitting beside me change for 100Rs. in 10 Rs. notes which he could as well have done with me rather than giving me the coins. (that what is the adverse effect of not having proper change for the ticket on bus).

Life at Siruseri-1

DRIFTED "DRAFT"

The life began as it might not have after the first day of 2007. I landed with my luggage at the Chennai Central and waited for the college vehicle. ...Where am I upto.....let's stick to the topic.
The 4th day at the new campus. The payment of fees was due (coz I never expected the Office to ask us for a draft for mess fee). So finally, I decided I should take it lest get charged with a fine. Hence, my journey started with my senior in search of a bank.
Well, we pedaled on the bicycles outside SIPCOT and started moving on the directions given by another one from the institute. Well, the then knowledge was that it's about 1.5 or 2 km from the institute. So, we reached the nearest habitable (permanently) place (Navalur)...no sight of a bank. Pedaled on keeping the hopes on the fate to lead us through to the nearest bank. It's was 2:30 in the afternoon...we were pedalling with draining hope. Finally we reached....a shop where we asked the shopkeeper for further instructions...he gave an information that there's one in the next village. So, with renewed hope...the pursuit began (expecting the distance to be 1km). Well, finally we reached after pedaling for 2 kms.
At last, a bank at sight...ah..ah..relief, went in and took the draft and began pedaling back again. After we reaches Navalur....we were damn tired( this was my first bicycle ride in the past 3 years) ..... and got down from the bicycles and started walking (fact was that.. the air in the tyres was pretty low). Well, after 2 hrs we finally reached the hostel....i successfully yet unhappy for the ride...he unhappy in all senses as he was not able to find an ATM to draw money from. That's another issue about the ATM's. Shall try to rope it in, in a later post

Broken Mind series -4

Rendezvous With A Broken Mind

Scowling and silently howling
It entered the premises
Cavernous wind was blowing
As the sun rose in the skies.

Horizons shrunk
Sight went blank
Hence it began
As the closets went blank.

As the time passed
The winds changed
From gloomy to gloomier
And then he saw the Reaper.

Rip! Rip!
Ha! Ha! Ha!
That's how he said 'pip, pip'

And then the new horizon broke out
But it waned and never again waxed.

The Broken Mind series - 3

Repercussions Of A Broken Mind

The primroses fade
And the seas recede.
Closed are the buds that whithered
This is not the result expected.

A world so unnatural
Lived in a land supernatural
Ablities degraded
Slowly they faded.

This is not the end
And nor is this not the end
This is the beggining of the end
And the shoulders bend
As the Broken minds crumble
Rupturing all life to cradle.

This is not the end!
Nor is this not the end! !

The Broken Mind series -2

Rejuvenation Of A Broken Mind

Remember The Broken Mind
Remember The Times Unforgiven
Motion of the time is sound
Reversal of Life is forbidden.

Rejuvenate! Rejuvenate!
Ho! There sounds the time's knell
Life is just a passe
Remind this before the bell.

Review -The House Of Flying Daggers

"The House of Flying daggers" - is not a suitable title for the movie, it ought to be "Romeo must not die". Well that's what it turned out to be after a worthless one and half hour in the and another 2 hours outside the theatre. It's all the same old love triangle story with a martial arts touch it.
Well anyway, we can consider that most of the Chinese movies (at least hose released in India) are watched only for their martial arts clips in the movie. This has some which are unbelievably the most complex, most mind-boggling and most physically infeasible. We have, in the past, seen Chinese actors shooting the enemies as they glide or run with arrows and unmistakably the enemy falls unless it is the final boss. But, this movie has got a step forward in this by making the guy shoot the arows with such an accuracy that they pass through the clothes but not the body even though he was running while shooting the arrows. This was done so that the girl believes in the nature of the guy who was a police official who (acts) releases the girl from the prison and goes along with her telling that he is a believe in The House. The girl is incidentally blind (acts).
If this is not enough, there is a shot in which other police guys starts chasing these two for real, i.e. to kill them, where they run on the bamboo shoots and shoot bamboo shoots as they run. This is not it, even though they keep running they shoot the sharpened bamboos at theses two which is yet a mystery to me i.e. I don't get how the hell were they able to run, shoot and sharpen more bamboos at the same time. Well, only explanation is that they are running at such a speed that hey have the time dialton ffect coming into play.
If you are still positive about this story you can read another scene, the last 20 mins from my friends blog where I suppose two of the three characters die.
If you are still positive then it is ur fate that u enjoy only stupid movies.

Remnants Of Broken Mind

Broken I am,
Yet not crumbled.
I shall try till I reform,
Even though those who helped
Will never help now,
Because I am a lost cause
And they the source.

Then one day I wake to find
I haven't changed,
To realise that it's me, who is the cause
And have no one to curse
For this position which I led myself to;
And then resolve to reach the glory.

On the incognizability of People(few)

You might find few (my ensemble is of an average size) persons who like to write INCOGNIZABLE language to vent out their common feelings just because the feelings vent themselves through a filter of English Thesaurus. I do bet anyone who views this that some or the other time you must have come accross such people. Then, what's your feeling?
As no great man said "La langue est un milieu pour transmettre ne se sentant pas de mot, ils forment seulement les composants pour le transfert " which means "Language is a medium to convey feeling not words, they only form the components for transfer."
