Pre New Year Post

This Pre 2008 post is an attempt to list down a few things learnt from in 2007. This is a very reductive activity but it might help me at the end of the next year when I'm still complaining what I rotter that year's been.



FROM APRIL

1. Post Graduation in English is a big cake
2. Kofee with Karan sucks. (Even though Johar may share his name with my very favourite tragic hero form Mahabharata).
3. Cricket has a habit of springing up on you when you've totally lost interest in it. Especailly if its endowed by handsome guys wearing glasses most of the time.
4. I'm a sucker for Time Travel.
5. I love almost tangible human superheroes. Its their biggest shortcoming and their biggest strength.

FROM MAY
1. American poets are easier to read than their British counterparts.
2. My attempt at Haikus is strained and then when I checked, wrong!

FROM JUNE
1. I love Harry Potter ICON MAKING.
2. I love Harry Potter FANFICTION.
3. I love HARRY POTTER. No contest.

FROM JULY
1. I predicted a few deaths from HP-7, being the pessimist I am.
2. Surprisingly, J.K. Rowling is a pessimist.

FROM AUGUST
1. I experiment more with icons.
2. Entourage is a life saver, post Harry Potter.

FROM SEPTEMBER
1. I decide I may want to become a writer, but being a bigger pessimist than an artist, I think I'll end up un-appreciated.
2. There are many pending books that one has to finish reading to become versatile. And the fact that I'm more lazier than Pessimist has everything to do with it!

FROM OCTOBER
1. Death follows Life. Questions of "why are we here" are very unavoidably raised , never to be resolved.
2. A whole month immersed in movies to escape the dreary life.
3. Kimmi Raikkonen is my hero.

FROM NOVEMBER
1. I find celebrities blogging very appealing. YEAH for Aamir Khan.
2. I'm irritable, suspicious, introvert, cautious and paranoid. HOGWASH for me.

FROM DECEMBER
1. This game or quiz is for everyone who wants to sharpen their abyssmal geography. I'm in.
2. I have to study Literary Critics this month to prepare for an upcoming tutorial. As much as I want to learn what I dont know, I'm afraid they might force me to think about those issues. That never does any good. (Thanks to Mr Foucault-you might want to spell your name the way you write it, Walter B, etc. )
3. Its freezing cold. I might not survive till the next year. My resolution should be to live till the first of Jan, 2008. Then I might make more resolutions that might be more creative. But thats next post then.
