Musically Yours

Spent the last few hours in the 3.4 music room with Harish. Surreal to say the least.

Something very true he said.. " Music is what seperates humans... we can understand and appreciate music :) "



He is a wonderful singer... the soul is as intact as the voice which makes the experience every bit worth it. I tried my hand the various instruments there too. Ahem, well I apparently cant do shit with em... hehe... The musical genius believes i learn fast so i will go by his words. Tried my hands at drum... and that's about it... it was trying my hand only.. hehe



Did slightly better with the octapad but finally settled on the Keyboard and playin Sa-Re-Ga-Ma... or Do-Re-Mi for the uninitiated... learnt a lot of nuances like what is a chord, key or what are the sever sur.. learnt to identify an octet and play by hearing your own voice.



C'est formidable...



Safe to say have managed to fuel the bug to learn something creative again.. ahem... less see...

Ouch! Zapak !

Been addicted to playing tetris on a friends cell phone. Naubat yahan tak aa gayi hai ki now I have found myself Zapak.com thanks to Mr. Harsh Shah. Its a online gaming portal, with a gazillion.



After recovering from a killer fever and cold, have spend my entire day playing stupid online games which are very addictive... shooting guns, making patterns, finding tresures...

hehe... not time to stop though... Zapak.. here i come....

Where Have I Been?

Too few posts in the last few months. Where have i been?

Dont know.. Dont remember.



What triggered this forced/volutary sabattical from the world of expressing myself, I am not too sure. But something did snap.



I have not made a decent post in over two months. Not written a proper email or made a postcard (what are they belong to another post at another time) for almost the same time. The last term of my MBA at IIM Lucknow has started, which means more free time that I know what to do with. Have taken quite well to vegitating in my room without any activity. I had thought that this would trigger a wave of useless or not so useless posts here but did not happen.



Been doing pretty much nothing over the past coupla months. After exams and a trip home, it was time for unlimited boredom brought on by a complete lack of work and my inability to deal with it after a year and a half of being a workaholic@placecom. So spend nearly two weeks preparing for a friend's visit to campus - Cleaning room, buying and wrapping gifts, making CDs... basically anything to keep me occupied.



Since New Year's ive rediscovered the library. Have issued an immense number of books and been gobbling them up like a leach. At any given point of time i have been reading atleast 2-3 books :D



Sadly, still doesnt explain why was i so inactive here. Not that there was a lack of things i had to say... sometimes i wrote entire pages of thoughts in my mind... but somehow.. hand always froze when i got to a pen or a keyboard.



Where have i been?
