Blur

"Your mind is not a cup to be filled with knowledge, its a fire to be ignited"

Hey people...
Have a rocking 31st December. Rocking in your very own senses. For some it shall be a peacefull time filled with silence, for others a time full of blasting rocking music and crowds of people. Which ever you choose....

Please be Careful, Safe and Responsible...of your life and of others!

Have a time which everyone remembers in a plesant way :-D
Rock on buddies!

The first line just a nice thought i read on the intranet at work.
Tried writing a lot about my life and thoughts, but coudnlt relate it to this space. So till the time they sorted, they shall lie somewhere else.

Its so crazy when u have a zillion thoughts running in your mind and when u try to pen them down u simply cant catch em together.
BLiiiiizzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzztttttttttttttttttttttttttttt.....crash boom!
System needs to be rebooted!

Looking Back Looking Ahead

One more year comes 2 an end, calender wise and otherwise.
I look back today at the past one year of my life on December 17th. Things won, Things lot, people i met, people i lost. Ah! i Thank You God for giving me all that you did and did not.
It surely was one of the most eventfull, experience enriched and full of teachings kinda year of my life.

I really wanna thank all the people who made a difference to my life, made me experience things i didnt believe in, made me learn a lot more about life, and elevate me to a different level of life.
In other words, is maale se ekdum different dikhti hai duniya :-D

Highs and lows, twists and turns are kinda more thrilling when u have gone through them and look back at them. This year unlike last year, i have no regrets, i am thankfull to have seen what all i saw last year.

Hmm...i hope this year too, i learn and grow and add something to the little world around me, mature some more, understand and react to things in a better way, and hell have a fun filled rocking time :-D

WoooHoooooooo -

Dear God, thankyou for making me meet the most wonderfull people, and see the unseen sides of people i already knew. I love you god ... hope you love me too >:D<
and, people, i love you all too, no matter what i said did or meant, i shall forever be indebted to you all for teaching me so much more about this thing called "Life"

CHeers people!

Sound Check


As a kid i used to plug in the mic on the pc and do some crazy sound recordings, practicing for my dialouges, or poems , or some stuff. Then the mic broke, and things moved on and i completly forgot about it.

Yesterday got a call from one of the spiritual guides to come down to a studio for a voice test. And i went, without another thought.
It was a script in hindi ofcourse and a serious one too. Hehehehe that cought me frozen for a while but then i knew i could do it. It was a gr8 experience, to sit in that sound proof room with the headphone on and the mic, i collapsed in the comfy chair, put the script on the wooden stand in front of me, tilted the mike to the right, so that i didnt have to look down at the script. And roll!

The first cut was kinda flat, but the guys said i sounded pretty cool. yea yea...there were only trying to make me feel better. So me took a 5 min break and thought lets see what;s in it. 2nd take and they froze it! They said that would do as the final take.

Later we broke for coffee and kurkures and everyone started telling their stories. What they did and how they got into the business. Me too told about my marketing and the job and the big brand company ( first professional interaction - where i felt good about what i do) and the question came back "So how'd u get in to voice overs?"

I smiled, for a moment i paused to let the momment make me happy, sometimes it feels good to be complimented, so they thought i was a good at what i just tried for the first time...
Ah...seems like i have found something i wanted to always try and had forgotten about....

So...wuts say....Check check check....sound check?

You fill up my senses like a night in a forest,
like the mountains in springtime,
like a walk in the rain,
like a storm in the desert,
like a sleepy blue ocean.

You fill up my senses, come fill me again.
Come let me love you,
let me give my life to you,
let me drown in your laughter,
let me die in your arms.
like a storm in the desert,
like a sleepy blue ocean.
Come let me love you, come love me again.

Heard this song after months now, winter evenings...radio goes cool too. Great song, Great Music, Friday evening, for a change after weeks, i am going home...and on time.
