Its a telugu movie.. based on some college going students.. how they become friends.. some lovers.. and how they spend their college life together..! There isnt one familiar face in the movie.. ! But.. who cares ! It is well made movie by Sekhar Kammula. I have really liked all of his movies so far.. Will watch out for more..
The songs of the movie are very good.. situational.. and pleasant.."O My Friend" especially... makes me all psenti.. each and everytime I listen to it.. Some images of a few dear friends.. flash in front of my eyes.. !
After a long long time.. I saw something .. I could actually identify with.. ! The college days were indeed the Happiest Days of my life.. The only thing that was somewhat important was to make good grades ! Nothing else... to bother.. No worries.. No responsibilites.. Just friends.. fun and.. happiness.. How much fun it was... !! I wish I knew that then.. ! Not until the final semester.. did I realize what happenned in the past 4 years was something to remember.. and cherish forever.. !
All you college-goers out there.. enjoy life and friends .. while you can.. ! Life will get in the way.. pretty soon..

2 Interesting Websites
I truly believe the thing people say - "A single picture conveys a thousand words"... I think pictures do speak a lot more that words fall short of.. and many times in much easier and simple way.. ! I doubt many people would counter that.. Anyway.. then isnt there an easy way for people to learn a 1000 new words.. by just looking at a picture ?? Well.. apparently there is..

Then for the first time I found something interesting from the "Ads" on a website.. Apparently you could invent new things and share them with people ... get patents.. and do it all online.. Ofcourse you have to have a good idea to begin with.. hmm.. the creative side of me got extremely curious and I went on to check it out.. ! The first think I did was to check out the stuff that was posted on there already.. some sample ideas/inventions..people are coming up with.. and first i thought it was all not so great ideas.. like the air filter thing that you insert into your mouth immediately after you inhale ..it supposedly purifies all the air before it goes into your lung.. probably does.. But I do like to talk while i breath and that doesnt seem too convenient.. hmm.. Then I found another one that I thought was great.. coz I thought about that many times.. about saving water while washing dishes or brushing teeth.. feeling lazy to turn it on and off many people do let the water run.. and its such a waste.. So, someone proposed a foot pedal that acts like the faucet.. that controls the water flow.. Neat idea ! Then i found something else and something else.. and they all seem to help to do something better.. or conserve resources ... Its a good read... when you find some time.. either to instigate laughter or to trigger a thought.. Check it out.. http://www.inventnow.org/

I'd rather be a could-be

because a could-be is a maybe

I'd rather be a has-been
than a might-have-been, by far;
for a might have-been has never been,
but a has was once an are

Happy Sankranthi/Pongal
This is the first festival after the international new year that kicks off the festival season in India. Sankranthi is the harvest festival that is celebrated in many regions of India, though called by a different name in each place. You can read more about it here. Growing up back in India, festivals always meant new clothes, lots of food and a fun day for everyone.. ! Sometimes holidays from school too :) Festivals still mean the same now, food is the main part of it. Though, most times its not a holiday now, and I have to do all the cooking instead of mom :)

Another New Year,, Another New Beginning
Wish you a very happy, successful and wonderful 2008.. and also all the years ahead.. !
Many new things start with the new year.. Its an opportunity to open new doors.. and take new routes.. not that other days are not .. :) There is never a bad day to do a good thing.. But, somehow the whole concept seems to make people think of doing things differently.
To begin with, I received the first email about new year resolutions from our manager .. about the goals he has in mind for the team, then a friend of mine who has a hard time keeping in touch with people, decided he was gonna call everyone this year and wish and communicate more frequently...
I usually dont make any "resolutions" as such. But, I can think of something that can be one.. I will try to be less creative with excuses for not doing some things, and try to do them :) This will be resolution every year until I get all those things accomplished..
Do you make resolutions ? What are they ?
