Transatlanticism

I feel so happily exhausted. So much so, that I want to flop down on a bean bag and grin maniacally. My baby is finally home.
The Magazine Team of the School has been working their asses off all the year, sacrificing lunch breaks, holidays and sanity to compile something "classy" at the end of the year. And roughly nine months later, we walk into the Principal's office which has been, more or less second home to us, only to receive a nice, thick, considerable bulk of paper that smells invitingly of glue.
It is our baby, and each one is the progeny of our hard work.
And so, with a proud-exhilarated-tired-ecstatic expression of absolute kindness (or the closest to it that I can muster up, anyway) I present to the world, Lotus Buds 2007-2008.

Might I just add,due to lack of consensus, this child is largely regarded to be the process of asexual reproduction, or imaginary... never mind.
XD!

Plunged in grey, the light leaned across walls lazily,
Streaking through in flashes and then crawling by,
As headlights and streetlights create a maze of luminescence
And the evening drowned itself into the night.

The Kolkata Knight Riders kick ass.
*evil laugh*

I shall now leave and look for something black and gold to wear for tomorrow. I'm not going for the match, but I support all ze King's Men, and therefore I shall dress (tackily) in black and gold to pledge my allegiance to Dada and his minions.

*evil laugh*

All the lonely people.

I'm half-asleep, and still hammering at the keyboard. No big surprise there, really.

I never realise how wonderful a place like home is, unless I've been someplace really crappy that made me want to curl up and cry. And the last two days have been hell. A train journey that was originally meant to be a nauseating two nights dragged through another nine hours, what with all Maoists and their mild explosives. And now I know, more than ever, that there is no place like home.

I have been waiting for a conversation. And it is just not working out the way I want the conversation to be. Which is truly frustrating, because this means that I won't get to hear what I want to hear, and that is just a little bit too maddening.

I'm becoming incoherent, and it's minutes before my grammar disintegrates. I shall log off now, and leave you all alone.

Listening to : Owner of a Lonely Heart, Yes.

You gotta love Audrey Hepburn.

She's Super-Stylish...


Amazingly Pretty...


And Acts like a Dream...

People who are icons like Holly Golighty,


Do not deserve to die of Appendecial Cancer. What sort of Cancer is that, anyway? We don't even NEED the Appendix!
R.I.P Audrey.

I visited my MySpace after a very long time today. If you're wondering whether I'm a networking addict, actually, no. It's because I use MySpace to get updates on some of my favourite artists, and to read Snow Patrol's blog.
I LOVE Gary Lightbody. The man is absolutely wonderful. He's all of 6'5", lyrical genius, vocally gifted, pleasing to the eye and ear, and every time I look at him or listen to him, I feel all warm and fuzzy inside. Irish Delight. And his blogs, which I've mentioned before, have delectable undertones of observational humour that also make me feel warm and fuzzy inside.
Lightbody apparently hosted a New Year's Countdown on BBC Radio. Too little, too late that I find out now.

Here is a photo I took the other day.
