On a quiet Sunday evening, I sit in my living room, curtains drawn, lights not switched on. It’s just slowly beginning to become dark, my laptop screen standing out as a wall of light, and the TV in the background broadcasting Aston Villa vs. Liverpool (Villa leading 1-0 as of the 33rd minute). I’ve just [...]

For my sister’s birthday, I call her up at midnight, and promise to buy her something nice, generally shoes or bags. In that sense, I’ve got the best sister in the world. I’ll wish her, and a few days later, she says “So, I think you should transfer a couple of thousand bucks into my [...]

It’s been a while since I’ve written. Anything. So I thought I’d write a post, yesterday. But I didn’t. Because I couldn’t think of what to write about. Then I thought I’d write a post today. I didn’t. Because I had nothing to write about. Actually, that’s not true. I could have written about a [...]

The other day I was at a Euphoria show. Let me start off by saying that I’m not really a fan of Euphoria. That’s not to say that I dislike them, because I like a few of their songs; it’s just that I’m not really that much into their music, never owned any albums, never [...]

As I checked out my blog the other day, I realised that it’s been more than a month since my last post. And I thought to myself, “Oh boy, here we go again! There’s going to be another post about how long it’s been since I’ve written, and how life sucks and how I promise [...]

It rains. I lie on the concrete roof, wet and blinking. It takes a while before the mind gets accustomed to watching the drops of water fall on my glasses, millimetres away from my eyes, and not blinking in reflex. I lift my arms, heavy with wet clothes. I ask questions. The usual. Nothing new. [...]

By the time I publish this post, it would be roughly about half an hour late. Regardless… On Facebook, there’s an option to share your likes–music, TV, sports teams, etc. And then there’s an option to highlight the people who inspire you. And I couldn’t think of anyone except the following: Happy Birthday, dad.

I realised last night while watching a movie that as long as it’s interesting, it captures my full attention. I am less inclined to make comments or try to deflect attention to myself. Not the same with ads, though. Nope, never. As I was telling a very pretty girl yesterday, 95% of the advertisements on [...]

In the past, I’d frequently surmise that man’s greatest gift is his ability to forget the bad experiences and remember the good ones…at least, in general. Now, I think maybe that’s not the case. I don’t understand how nostalgia works, though. Because when you feel nostalgic about the past, don’t all your past experiences seem [...]

Windows 7 Media Player Is it just me or does Media Player 12 (bundled with Windows 7) really not have equaliser or other sound enhancement options? What kind of self-respecting media player doesn’t allow the listener to improve the bass or treble, at the very least? Makes me miss Quintessential all the more. That being [...]
