How i met your mother


My roommate downloaded a serial called "How i met your mother" a few weeks ago. I watched a few episodes when i had some free time. Slowly i got attracted to this serial. I watched all the three seasons and now following every episode on CBS. This serial is similar to "Friends" and have similar characters. It depicts the typical lifestyle of working bachelors in New York

The main character in the serial is Ted who narrates the background story. Ted describes to his children how he met their mother.The script writer could maintain the suspense very well till now.

My favorite character in this serial is Barney. He is simply awesome !!! In fact that his is tag line. His character is very well sketched just like "Joey" in "Friends".

My favourite female character is of course Robin, not because of acting skills but because of her looks.

Self-introspection


Two years ago if somebody would have asked me what are your strengths and weaknesses , what are your likes or dislikes,what do you wanna do in life, i would have taken ages to reply those questions. Why ? Because i have never done self-introspection. In fact nobody told me to do so. But i think self-introspection is a great exercise. Everyone should do it at least once in his/her life.The earlier you do , the clearer your thoughts will be , the better you can control your future.

Well , let me be very clear that self-introspection is not that easy. You don't know where to begin and where to end.Particularly, the deeper you think, the broader your options will be , the crazier you might become if you can't control your thoughts. The last part of my last sentence might scare some people and they might even decide not to do self-introspection. But the truth is only by experimenting you can fathom deep into our hearts and know who you are. Once your soul becomes hallow and you can glean through it from one end to the other end, your life becomes what i call JHAKAAS !!!

Ugadhi 2008



Last Sunday was a memorable day. It's been long since i have attended or celebrated any Indian festival. Thanks to Srini, we had a great Ugadhi evening this year. Surprisingly , more people attended than we had anticipated. Srini and I planned the whole evening. We started the evening with guest's introduction , followed by dumb sharades , audio-video round and finally karaoke.

The best part of the evening was food. We had 4 varieties of curries, Sambar, rasam, pongal , three varieties of sweets , garelu , bobattlu .... the list goes on. Also everyone was wearing colorful dresses. So i really felt as if we were celebrating the festival at home in India.

I also watched 'Jalsa' movie in the morning. I was 30 mins late for the movie. I didn't like the movie. I went there with least expectations but still i didn't like it. Particularly songs picturization was not good.
