It has been a very long time since I really blogged :)
Let us start with a Happy New Year. Hope this new year brings in joy and prosperity to one and all.
Well for me, it started on a very hopeful note. Overcoming my fears and renewing my hopes. It was a little bit stressful, but all is well that ends well aint ?
But in general, I guess this New Year brought in lot of surprises to all with the Satyam , Maytas Scam, Economic Slowdown etc etc. But let us hope that it doesnt depress us and let us wish that in these dark times we try to keep up our hope that things will be better tomorrow.
Just like what Dumbledore says, Happiness can be found even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the light.
Ok, now coming to my usual stuff of books and movies :)
Recently I just finished one of my ever favourite book which I had always wanted to read. And completing it gave me so much of relief that I have achieved something. How much pleasure does one get when one get to do what they *really* want to do.
The book was "Pride and Prejudice" by Jane Austen. I have read this in my school years as part of the non-detail text. But reading it in full classic mode, was something so much of pleasure. I guess everyone who likes to read novels, fiction, stories, should read this once atleast. The kind of english used, the emotions, the characterization, wow. You feel as if you see them before your eyes alive, as you read them.
My next book would be "Bram Stoker's Dracula". Well more about it after I read the book. I have loved the film though, more for the performances of Sirius Black (aka Gary Oldman) and Little women Elizabeth (aka Wyona Rider) and the cinematograph. It was the first ever movie which made me scream :), when I was watching it with my friends in the hostel at night.
Sari rombha late aayidichu. Feeling very sleepy. Buenas noches.
There are two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle.

If we live another day to see, it is a miracle. :) Keep smiling and Keep your hopes high.
