Objectivism and the collective thought

I completed Fountainhead finally. Definitely not for the faint-hearted. :)

New Moon

Incidentally, its a new moon now. The title referring to the passage of time as in the novel New Moon by Stephanie Meyer. I have come to worship the idea of integrity but practice of the same?! It hasn't been done. The first post in a decade that will see many events come to pass. Milestones of my life. Some things that have as yet existed merely as wisps of thoughts and wild dreams.

This year brings with it responsibility, time, journeys, weird to-do lists written by a peculiar part of myself. Readership to this blog can be null. Scarcely matters. I want to travel, see new places, savor fresh and smooth flavors, photograph moments, learn languages, be an entirely new person as I face each day, love recklessly, sing and play the piano,drive a car, read books and write a short review on each book I read. Take the GMAT exam.

Post soon.

I pledge to read the printed word

Sometimes life seems bleak and pointless. This is when you pick a book up and lose yourself.

Cheers to reading challenges.

Welcome November,

Hema

Hours to midnight. Mission:Wuthering Heights :P

Naresh Iyer

There's this new song from the Telugu film Orange that I absolutely love by none other than the Prince of Song-Naresh Iyer. 


Listen to Nenu Nuvvantu


Nenu nuvvantu verai unna
Naakeevela neeeloneeunnatuga anipistu unde vintaga 
naakosam neene vetekentaga   O!Girl


Nuve lekunda emavtano 
nee snehani kavalantunnanuga kadante naamedottu ga
emaina chesta nameetuga


okasari chusi nee valachana nanu veedipodu ee maguvaina
premistanee entho gaadanga
naa premalothulo munigaka nuvu paiki telave sulabanga
pranalaina ista ekanga


Charanam1:


Nijayithi unodini najalane annodini
abadame ruchinchani abbayini


okeoka manchodini romancelo pichodini
parledule oppesuko sarenani


musugesukodu ye nadu   naamanase ooo bhama!
nanu nannugane chupistu kadanna poradede aa prema
ohovooo


Nenu Nuvvantu(1)


Charanam2:


Tilothama tilothma pratikshanam virodhama
ivala naa prapanchame nuve suma


grahalake valesina dive ala digochina
ilanti oo magadine chulevamma


okanati tajmahal aina naamundu poorille
ikapaina goppa premikude lokamlo niliche peere naadele
ohovooo


PS. Listen to this song while reading this lyrics you find it really awesome. Currently humming this.super!



Dangers of conformity

This is not an excuse for not sticking to my resolution. I have managed to stick to it.

Exams are round the corner.

Its important to stay organized in today's world. To be chic, is a way of life. It is a way of cooling off. I like disorder and disarray. If I browsed the web like a merry-andrew I'd often say, "I'm well and truly lost". I visit about 20 new pages each day. Some I like. Some that don't even hold my attention for a span of moments. Some I just have to get back to and devote an hour to.

Bookmarks offered by browsers do allow you to stay comfortable and easily organized. The problem is they are not accessible every time you are online, just every time you are online on your PC.

Delicious is a bookmark service I've heard of, but don't use since its available to US citizens. I was stuck on INeedtoreadthis.com for a long time. I just had to stash away some pages that were way too good to be forgotten.

Google has left no stone unturned in progressing. I've known and used Google Bookmarks for a while. Fruitfully. I love it. It lets you use labels and keep lists. It helps me remember what I want to buy the next time I shop. Variety is suffocating. Thank you Goog.

Reading blogs is becoming an increasingly loved comfortable pastime. I'm in rehabilitation for Facebook.Although the positives that Facebook possesses are numerous, I tend to spend time on the pointless parts of it.

SOS. No SMS. Save My Soul.

#1

I've crooned. Tonic-a double dose. Yap. Yes yes that too. I've started studying my texts.

The Lord is my shepherd and I shall not want.

Love,
Hema

P.S:
Song of the Day is kinda obvious.
Best Moment:I loved wearing my sister's pullover and riding away looking uber cool.
