Gravity
Description: Ending Song
Performed by: Maaya Sakamoto
Lyrics: Troy
Composition, Arrangement: Youko Kanno
The Wolf's Rain closing theme version omits lines 9 - 14...
The lyrics...
Been a long road to follow
been there and gone tomorrow
without saying goodbye to yesterday
are the memories I hold still valid?
or have the tears deluded them?
maybe this time tomorrow
the rain will cease to follow
and the mist will fade into one more today
something somewhere out there keeps calling
am I going home?
will I hear someone singing solace to the silent moon?
zero gravity what's it like?
am I alone?
is somebody there beyond these heavy aching feet
still the road keeps on telling me to go on
something is pulling me
I feel the gravity of it all

Looking glass
My sister finally made it into the dance group for her school annual day. She now comes home really tired. On one such particular evening...
Sis : My leg’s hurting! (Tries her hand at wailing).
Mamma : Come here, I’ll make it go.
Sis : Is there moov? (She meant the balm)
Mamma : Yes, Papa has got a new tube.
*Mamma gets a phone call... *
Mamma : I’ll ask Papa to massage... I’ll be back.
Sis : No! you do it! (Puts on her long face)
Papa : Come here...
*Sis continues to wail*
*I take my gaze off the glass*
Me : Abhi, lets name them.
Sis : Tch! (Puts on a “My leg is paining... don’t talk silly” look)
Me : Come on... look, we’ll start with these two.
*Papa escapes*
Sis : Ok.. we’ll name them “Angel”
Me : But there are two of them...
Sis : They are alike!
Me : No.. see this one? It’s got a few streaks of white on it.
*Sis takes a closer look*
Sis : Right akka!
Me : I told you...
Sis : ok.. one is Angel.
Me : Other? Fairy?
Sis : No... “Angie”
Me : Angie sounds silly... Fairy
*Sis ponders for a few moments..*
Sis : Ok.. Fairy and Angel... the full black one is Angel.. the one with the white streaks is Fairy.
Me : Ok!
*Sis smiles... the aching of the leg long forgotten...*
Sis : See... Angel and Fairy are always together...! They don’t move... lazy they are!
Me : I know! (Grins)
Sis : What shall we name the others? The orange one? Lets call it “ Pony”!
*I don’t voice out my thought that a “Pony” suits a horse better*
Me : Ok.. whatever.
*Sis smiles... I smile back...*
*Mamma comes back and sits next to her... I tell her in sign language about the forgotten leg pain... Mamma smiles*
*I continue gazing through the glass whilst my Sis tries her best at naming the rest of them*

Untiltled
If this semester turns out to be any different than the last, well, guess I'll just have to welcome the change.
PS - If you don't know me, you don't know what am talking about.
PS2 - No, its not who you think it is.

Role play
Ana Lucia Cortez(LOST)
Ana is depicted as that tough girl on the outside, but a sensitive one on the inside. Previously, she’d have been an officer. Ana always played the bad cop. Her’s was a governing personality.
Phoebe Buffay(F.R.I.E.N.D.S.)
Pheebs is kinda a ‘hippie’. Her character is that of a dumb woman.A masseuse and a guitar player! I just love her body language... you know, the way she uses her hands, a fluid motion in them.
Albus Dumbledore(Harry Potter)
The enigmatic head master, who believed in speaking a few, well chosen words. ‘nough said.
Dee-Dee(Dexter’s lab)
The seemingly silly sister of an apparently born genius. She’s tall. “Oh! What does this button do?” – her favorite line. Think its still aired on CN.
Ryu Amakusa(Detective school Q)
The hushed boy of the group. Great deducing skills. A mystery in person, if I may say so.

The squirell!
You are taking a stroll through a park when a tiny squirrel jumps out of nowhere. Where do you think the squirrel was a second earlier?
please answer
Here is the analysis:
You are very direct, which might freak them out. Something along the lines of "Have you ever looked at yourself in the mirror?" might slip from your lips.LOL!

Life...
Have you ever speculated what life is about?
Or who you are?
It’s not about you being a human or a female or a male or any of the customary answers to that question...
Ever wondered what you are doing here? Ah, I can see some of your sullied minds working fervidly...
Try giving it a rational answer.
Can you? I think not...
Where DID you come from anyway? Oh yeah... right.
world...?
But what the heck ARE you doing here??
Get a job. Work for a few decades. Increasing your family unit as you age. Stock up a certain amount of affluence for them.
Aggravate your health on the way... and BOOM! You are gone! Then? What happens
What IS the rationale of your life? Why do you have to accomplish those plentiful things? For that fleeting contentment?
Believe it!
Sure there are people who might say something like, “Life is short... enjoy it to its full degree, while you still can!”...
Yeah right!!! :P
Atheist, agnostic, call me whatever you want... I’d rather go for something with proof!
Incongruously, am listening to “It’s my life” as I type out my forlorn thoughts!

Taare Zameen Par
And you know what? I am glad that I watched it. Yeah. I really am. I mean, it was a relief to note that there were no glossy “glam” females for a change. No lewd “item numbers”... all that crap.
But hey!
