And So It Begins

Posted on 02 Jul 2008 under Journal/Life Updates

Well, it happened two days later than I expected it to, but I’ve finally got my braces put today. We’re doing the lower jaw first, and though I don’t really feel any pain right now, I can feel the pressure on my teeth giving me a tingling sensation. I’ve been warned though, that I will […]

Back in Black (and Red)

Posted on 27 Jun 2008 under Journal/Life Updates

So I’ve finally got my internet reconnected today on another ISP. I now have no download cap, and do you know what that means? It means I can’t download anything unless I back up the music off my computer onto DVDs or something and create space to download more.
Anyway, another update is that […]

Fly in the Web

Posted on 25 Jun 2008 under Journal/Life Updates

The World Wide Web, which is often considered the same as The Internet, can be a tricky place, especially if you’re a fly and the spider’s out to get you. Wow, that was a lame metaphor!
Anyway, this is just an update to everyone. I don’t have internet at home right now because I’m shifting from […]

The Complete Geek

Posted on 20 Jun 2008 under Journal/Life Updates

When I was much younger, I had a root canal in one of my teeth, and the dentist put some permanent cement over it. Well, it turns out that the cement wasn’t permanent after all, because a few days back, when I was chewing gum, some of it came back, hollowing out a portion of my […]

The Writer

Posted on 16 Jun 2008 under Journal/Life Updates

To start off, I should say that I don’t write a lot of short stories. I write fragments. I write incidents, observations, I paint still scenes and memories with words, and to be candid, I do it quite beautifully a lot of times. I’ve written about three or four stories so far, and they’ve involved […]

Changes

For the past couple of days, the wind’s been carrying the smell of rain. Sadly, for the most part, all we’ve got is the smell, and nothing more, wafting in temptingly. It rained a day or two ago, and it was quite fun to stand out on the balcony with tiny droplets of water falling […]

It’s been really pretty darn hot this summer. Temperatures have soared above 40° C here. There was a slight lull for a couple of days in between, but over the last 3-4 days, it’s been hellish hot. I was talking to dad about it, and he said that this stage of the summer is called […]

9 Days Later…

Posted on 14 May 2008 under Journal/Life Updates

I remember my last post. I think I was promising updating my blog more regularly. That was nine days ago… er… yeah, so much for my promise, eh? Well, in my defense, I was writing my exams and didn’t really want to spend too much time away from my books (ok, that’s a lie seeing […]

Where is the Love?

Posted on 23 Apr 2008 under Journal/Life Updates

A day or two ago, someone left a comment on a post I made in 2006. In order to reply to the comment, I had to read the post. As I read it, I saw that there was a certain passion, a certain energy in those words. I’ve always felt that the best way to […]

Hathway Internet Services

Posted on 22 Apr 2008 under Humour, Journal/Life Updates

Starting Thursday morning, my internet had not been working for around five days, right up to yesterday. I called up Hathway Internet’s customer care center that evening to complain. I was told that it’s a signalling problem and that it’s likely to be sorted out within about three hours. Of course! That’s exactly why they […]
