Laziness is an Art!


to...
krishna: oye! thanks. welcome to my blog. :-)
chax: thanks dude. i take that as a compliment. :-D



This post is dedicated to my very friends. Some are opinionated. Some are shrewd. Some are against me. Some are for me. Some biased. Some other unbiased. But every body has categorically come to the same conclusion! This post is dedicated to those souls!!!

"lazy bugger. You'll never change." said my good friend.
I suppose, this is the repayment for calling him "a good pillion rider" :-) But, I actually take this as a compliment. I mean, its difficult to be lazy. Do you know why?? Read further....

Yep. Its difficult to be lazy. For laziness affects various aspects of ones life. and one should have the mental strength to cope up with those. Lemme try & list it out....

1. you gain pounds - This is the most important effect of being lazy. ye gain pounds faster than a 5yr old can grow! Extra pounds are not well appreciated by some biased & senseless community of skeletons. Well, I would say its gr8 to put on pounds it means a lot. It means you are Lazy!!! Isnt it great?

2. you lose prospective gal-friends - Another major impact bcoz of laziness. Say, you meet some gal @ some party/function. You take her number. You go home. She go home. (of course, i am refering to respective homes & not the same) You hit your sack & watch some crap on the TV. She hits her couch & wait staring at the mobile to ring with your name flashing. You dont and she doesn't. Next day @ mid-day, when you wake up with a hang-over due to laziness, you decide to call her and she bangs the phone so hard on your ring your ear drums would refuse to work for next few minutes. In short, you lazed around and she is gone for ever. But, this is great isn't it? you get to flirt around with one more the next day. :-) Else you are committed & hooked on to the same damn babe! How sinful!!!

3. your blog is rarely updated - Oh, yeah, this is one of the effects, which does not have a +ve perspective.

4. your vehicle & house are rarely tidy - oye, dont get me wrong. My house is clean but its not tidy. Thats it. But thats a great feeling. Untidy yet clean houses retain a perfect home atmosphere. Extremely tidy houses are but museums where only extinct animals are preserved. I am not yet extinct!
Also, when you clean your vehicle like once in a blue-moon thats when you realize that you actually have a very sexy vehicle and it gives a great pride & confidence. This will be of great help esp when you are gonna go on a date with a gal for the 1st time!! ;-)

5. you learn to skip meals - This is of great help. When you live alone and you have every necessary ingredients to cook but you are lazy. You are actually not skipping meals but learning to skip them. This will be of great help. Imagine, you join army and you are sent to plunder the enemies. At the ambush is fixed @ 7:30 in the morning. You are cannot protest and demand for food @ that time. But with these training you can successfully ambush the enemies and even get the "Medal of Honor." Then your Mom, who is shouting at you for skipping breakfast now, will be proud of you then. Always aim at the greater Goal!

Laziness is an art. One needs to master it. Else you will be infected by the most dangerous illness in this known-world - Guilt. You need to completely unaffected by the happenings around you only then you can be lazy without guilt. And its a great feeling to be lazy without Guilt. Try it & you will be addicted to it.

Laziness without Guilt is Character.

Trip to ParkField Resort

After I relocated to Hyd, I have been more find in B'lore than Hyd. I had various reasons. And this time it was bcoz of a get-to-gether we had planned.

"Its been really long since we had a outing," commented one.
"Oh! yeah, we plan but never put it into action," accused other.
"We plan and almost execute but for few spoilers," said another.

The atmosphere (which is in reality a virtual space) was becoming hot & sweaty to stay. A few more similar comments would call for fight & blood shed. Then some one jumped in, "yeah, He came back from US just a couple of days ago. Why not have a treat from him as a trip?" This saw many nods more than the traffic jams around the city. Few more of us ( to be precise, 2 of us) also joined the US-return in treating others.

We decided the day to be 23 & 24 Feb. After loads of "this-place" and "no, that place", we finally left the job to an able guy. And then on 17-Feb we visited "Park Field Resort". The following is gonna be just a photo blog of the events, for better read go thro -

Blood Diamond


to...
chax: Dont ever think about reading a new movies story in moi blog. I will never spoil even with a spoiler warning. :)



In this stupid place where I live the number of English movies that run in theatres are, at its best, 2!!! So, when I heard this movie was current on screens, I rushed. Me and Moi cousin went for this movie and we were awestruck. This is a movie one should never miss.


I dont like to give away the story of any movie I watch. But this movie its gonna be difficult but I will try not to give away the main stuff; @least not the climax!! :-) So I have compensated with pix of the movie. I am so awe struck with this movie, I could not contain my excitement since last night. Also I have been ever since waiting to get hold of my comp to pen down on my blog.

The plot is set in 1990 under the cloud of chaos & rebel war @ Sierra Leone. Well, as the name of the title says, this movie is all about....

...the infamous conflit Diamonds. This movie touches you with a gripping screen play. The entire movie is about the struggle Africans face because of the craze for this stone - Diamond. Once we are through with the movie, you feel a tinge of pain when-ever you come across a Diamond. This movie has been taken so beautifully that you wonder what are getting ourselves into. Our craze for such exotic stone is causing zillions of lives.

The movie's protagonist is difficult to identify. Its not one but two. Both Leonardo DiCaprio and Djimon Hounsou. Each have out performed each other. Just like a race, where each performer tries more to compete & out-perform with each other than simply winning the race; here too, these two fellas have given such a magnificient performance. I wonder why they did not earn the oscar. These guys did a great great job. You get so involved with their natural acting.

Leonardo DiCaprio has so out-grown his boy-image, which he acquired during his early years esp in Titanic. Movie after movie & year after year, his performance shows the maturity & extreme character. When I look back at the movies I have enjoyed the most, quite a few of those flicks are Leonardo's!!! Is that suprising? I did for me. Think about it - Departed, Aviator, Titanic, Catch Me If You Can and now, Blood Diamond!!! Boy! Boy! What a performer he is?

But note that here is another actor, who does not get over-shadowed by his bigger co-stars. He steals his share with all aplomb and grace. He showed that he knows what he does and his eyes spoke more than any body. And full marks to his body language. He might be seen running behind Leonardo but if you notice, he is not far behind and he is catching up with him! Yep, I am talking about Djimon Hounsou.

Djimon Hounsou has rendered a sterling performance. Never heard this name till now. But when I searched his name, I realized that I have seen a few of his movies. I liked him in Gladiator. And he is there in Eragon, which is due to be released in India. Will catch up with this movie soon as it is realized @least to watch this fella's performance. Pretty impressive. In fact, there are other older movies I missed like Rising Sun, Constantine, Biker Boyz.

Ok, dont ask me why she is there; but she is & we have to accept. I am refering to Jennifer Connelly. She still looks pretty though her age is catching up with her looks. Her smile is still radiant. And her physiche is sooooooo picture perfect. Damn! How does she maintain such a hot hour-glass structure without looking tooo thin!! She comes for few more scenes and captivates us with her smile. May be, she is in the movie just to take the mind of all the killings. No doubt she gets in a fresh air to the other wise bloody scenes & quite literally too.

Finally, for the director - Edward Zwick. What a direction! You have to watch this movie to know the difference between a Hollywood flick against our own Bollywood flops! There is never one time in the movie when you think that this scene is unwanted. Or this scene is unnecessary. Or what is he trying to tell us? Every scene is gripping. Edge of the seat. He has maintained the thrill & kept the adrenal pumping till the last scene. Very precise & clear no-nonsense direction.

On a whole this a wonderful movie to watch, dont miss it.
