IM of the Day
Some old dude walked by and said “You two are studying hard!”
I wanted to be like “I’m almost 30, f**knut!”

31AugIM of the Day
29AugGreen Thumb
Just about every day, I try to do something that I feel is ‘productive’. Whether it be working on something in Illustrator (I’m still getting a hang of it) or a website for someone, or even just making sure i get exercise, I like to keep myself occupied. It’s a good way to keep me from killing myself out of sheer boredom in the house.
I have a small balcony outside my room, and there’s a place where you can garden if you desire. Until now it’s just been left as a bare valley, but Jojin decided to buy some dirt and plant some stuff on his balcony, and I decided to do the same.
Today was/is ‘Gardening Day’. We had some cow manure that we also bought, and so I decided to mix it in with the soil that had just been put in. I put on my gloves, and began to put some of the manure (they call it cow dung here) into the little garden. ONE BIG PROBLEM: IT’S FRESH. AS IN NOT DRY. ICK.
See, back home, if you buy horse manure, you’re talkin about buying dry shit. Here– well– I guess it’s ‘FRESH’ here. I almost gagged at the smell of it, but kept working it in. Just touching it made me feel gross, but hey, I guess it’s the price you pay to have healthy plants.
Now I’m gonna buy some more real soil, and then get some plants. I don’t think I want too many flowers if any, because that’ll probably just attract bugs. No thank you. But some greenery there would be good for the soul, I think. Just a little something to make me feel like I did something.
And with that, my cow shit story is complete… for now…. peas.
27AugHilarity.
Ugghhh… I am so… tired…
I just sat up and watched 9 episodes of Lost in a row. Incidentally, that was also the answer to yesterday’s blog, so Niya got it right! It is now 7 am and time for me to go to sleep…..
aarrrrgghhh……zzzzz…..
I’m just going to “replay” a conversation Apsi and I had earlier today. Try to figure it out…
V: Babe, you’re not coming over tonight, right?
A: No, I’ve got work and then I’ve got a bunch of stuff to do in the morning so I have to be home.
V: Right… listen. There’s something I need to do. I mean, you’re not here, and I can’t just keep waiting anymore.
A: Huh?
V: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (You guess the line.)
A: Oh. Fine. Whatever.
V: Baby don’t get mad- I mean, you and I can do it together too. It’s just that right now I can’t wait.
A: I already said ‘fine’. Go right ahead.
V: It’s not like that, listen, it’s much more special when I’m doing it with you anyway but I… (sigh) yeah, I just wanted to let you know. We’ve been waiting for so long and something keeps coming up. Tonight I have time, and you’re not here. Again. So yeah.
A: I’ll probably be able to see you Monday!
V: I know, but I need to xxxxx right now. So xxxx and I are going to. Anyway…. that’s it. I’ll talk to you later.
Points if you can guess what we were talking about.

Wow. You know it never ceases to amaze me the lengths that guys go to in order to impress girls. I mean let’s face it, women are extremely tricky. You don’t want them to think you’re ignoring them, but at the same time, ya just can’t come on too strong. And when I say strong, there’s a LIMIT.
I think the reason why Indian guys (born here) are so bad at these is because they’re brought up on these horrible Bollywood movies that have a song and dance number every 15 minutes and always- ALWAYS- a man and a woman falling in love. There’s not a single one I can think of that doesn’t; at least any commercial successes. So without further ado, I give you a prime example of why Indian guys have been pussy whipped by their own film industry. So. SO. SAD.

Wow. You’ve gotta check these out. I drooled.
22AugI just watched Goal!
I just watched Goal! and if there’s even a tiny bit of a soccer lover in you, you have to go and rent this movie. Sports movies in general are okay, but when it’s a game that you actually are passionate about, it makes it so much more worthwhile. The movie is actually a trilogy, and the next two sequels are coming out….well…I have no idea. I guess I could check at IMDB. Anyway, go rent it- you’ll enjoy it.
Since I haven’t put one of these in a while, I thought I’d put a really good one from Nitu:

As a child I’d always wondered if God was like a scientist, playing with us like some sort of ‘Universe Kit’ that He’d bought at His Toys R Us. Of course, the idea was met with understandable resistance, and was seen as blasphemous. Perhaps I wasn’t so off after all if humans can do the same? Check the article out.

Alright, now in general, jokes don’t get put up on my site. But this one is wonderful, so I had to go for it.

Three men were standing side-by-side using the urinal.
The first man finished, zipped up and started washing and literally scrubbing his hands … clear up to his elbows … He used about 20 paper towels before he finished. He turned to the other two men and commented: “I graduated from Harvard and they taught us to be clean.”
The second man finished, zipped up and quickly wet the tips of his fingers, grabbed one paper towel and commented: “I graduated from the University of California and they taught us to be environmentally conscious.”
The third man zipped up and as he was walking out the door had a smirk on his face and said: “I don’t know about you guys, but where I went to college, they taught us not to piss on our hands.”
Alright- good news! I have a job currently. After a few months already of lying around waiting for my movies to start, I’d definitely started to feel bummed about not getting anything done during the day. I mean for Pete’s sake, some days I’d never leave the house.
But I’m designing a website for a client, and it’ll take a good deal of time, energy, and creativity. He wants a lot of Flash, which is something I need to get reacquainted with, pronto. It shouldn’t be too hard- I’ve done pretty complex stuff on there. I just need to get my feet in the water again.
In other (nerd/geek) news:
The role of The Joker has been cast for the next Batman film, The Dark Knight. And the actor is (drumroll please..) HEATH LEDGER. Whoa. So Batman decides to go Brokeback for its next villain. He’s immensely talented though, and I think it’ll be great.
And with that, I’m out. Peas.
