What a Sap...

WARNING: I AM SPEAKING UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF MUSHY-MOVIE AFTER EFFECT

I just finished the third of a series of movies purely based on love and I must say I have become a sap for it.

One movie was called the notebook. As most of you must know its about how a young summer fling turns out to be true love, the stuff legend is made of. The movie basically details how they end up together and how evn after years of absence and when they see each other again the love is rekindled almost instantly. An years later when they are old, how the guy is so faithful and in love with his wife that, although the wife seems to have some type of alzeihmers, he reminds her every moment he can of what they had together.

The other movie I saw was 50 first dates. I expected to be a typical sandler movie full of goofy humour and typical movie love. But it turned out to be pretty exhilarating to watch how a guy who falls in love with a girl who has no short term memory thus she can't remember him. So instead of giving up he finds new ways to make her fall in love with him everyday. He sacrifices all his time and dreams to be with her and in the end realizes his dreams are nothing without her in them.

Watching these obviously sappy and somewhat overly mushy movies has brought out the sap in me. The completely useless hopelessly romantic part of me which endures to make all those dreams that the movies spoke about to reality. Many would look at what I am thinking right now and say, as a pure reflex, "what a girl". I would have to agree. The sappy state that my mind is in right now, if a girl happens to catch my fancy, I would prolly take her out to the banks of the river, have a quiet picnic set up and even have a violinist play a tune while we dine. Of course I realize this would prolly make me broke for the next two months, but in this state of mind I wouldn't care tupence about my well being.

I just read what I wrote and I think I'm going nuts. What the hell!! Who would think like that after watching 3 love stories. I mean really. Get to grips with reality I say(telling myself).

One thing I do know for sure, if and when I get the chance or opportunity to show my affection/love to a person whomever it may be, I would try to make it as amazing as I could possibly make it. Yea...and the whole ultra cliche riding of into the sunset is running in my head over and over and over again. In fact, I can't seem to get out of it!! Ahhhhhhhhhhhh!!!! Your eyes are like daisies on a sunny sunday morning, just smiling without a care in the world...Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!....

I should be shot right now...don't you think??

End of an Era

"Its the end of an era. Friends were made and lovers found. Friendships broken and partners lost. Its a lifetime squeezed into a year. Wouldn't have had it any other way.

It has been a pleasure and a priviledge knowing you all, seeing you all, laughing with you all and crying with you all. I leave here with good memories and bad. But I wouldn't trade them for any heavenly thing.

I won't say goodbye because I WILL SEE YOU in the future for sure. So all I will say is See You Later.

Love yous. later...
Asoka"

I wrote this last year. What was I thinking would be an appropriate wuestion, wouldn't you agree? It sounded like I was going to die or something of the sort. Very interesting indeed. But I promise you my dear readers, well wishers and people out to get me...this year will be different. If not, not much I can do.

BTW the times and dates on these blog entries are a bloody hassle if I do say so myself. I am not going to bother correcting them on the ones I posted before or the one I am writing now or the ones of the future. Just letting you know in case any of you go awal about it...you are all insane!!

Welcome to the club.

When the end...

When the end of something comes around, its in your sights, just around the corner, you tend to become reminiscent of the beginning. The end of the semester is almosst upon me...and I am thinking....not about the beginning...rather...WOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOO

It is the end of another semester...some of it was I admit interesting, some of it life changing, but for the most part most of it was just building up to this moment, when you have finished a course and you never have to do that course again in your life.

I know it seems immature and somewhat childish, but the relief of having come to the end of another semester means I am that much closer to finishing my degree...and hopefully that much closer to conquering the world!! (As a side thought also closer to getting these rants published and thus getting myself shot upside down! --> read the first entry to understand)

I must admit, there have been times where I wish I had done better, done different or not done at all. But I hope I have learnt from all that and ready to move on to the next phase in this ever-re-occuring sequence of life. Wow...what a word. I just made that up, and it makes sense (patting myself on the back).

Here I go again reminiscing. I shouldn't. Its not worth it I tell you. But then again, it is a well known fact that you will never know where you are going if you don;t look at where you were. Otherwise there would be no progress, just an everlasting loop. I mean we would still be inventing the wheel, over and over and over. Now that would be a fate that is worse than any nightmare I can think of.

I wrote a small poem like prose at the end of last year I think. It was just wee bit of inspiration, an average amount of perspiration and whole lotta excretion but I will post it in the next entry for your enjoyment, if not another reason to find me, hunt me, torture me and shoot me.

Isn't life a whole bunch of blah!!
