All human beings are also dream beings. Dreaming ties all mankind together. _Kerouac

Reading Feluda [i want a brozzer who i can call 'da' except im not bengali so that would be a tad insane :)] stories and 'On the Road' ...i live in dreams of Varanasi in black and white and hitching my way across the american wilderness [in technicolour] ...real life is more adventures of bus riding...the mad passengers, the madder conductors [some are very nice and make the men vacate seats for the ladies, others are permanently annoyed and make a big fuss about having to give change] followed by having not much to do at work. still waiting for mine own computer. today i wikipedia-ed kerouac and the beats and benzedrine and soumitra chatterjee. is he yummy or is he yummy? far yummier than kerouac. he does write yummily tho [on the road needs a soundtrack, id choose nada surf, clem snide and conor's latest]. i want to travel and write and travel and write.

La fille de joie est belle...

my french movie love continued on the flight [heathrow to bangalore] there was this funky movies on demand thing where u get to choose from a larger selection of movies and i chose the 2 french ones :) 'la vie en rose/la mome' et 'Il y a longtemps que je t'aime' and now instead of words i shall let them [mostly] speak for themselves.

marion avec the voice of edith piaf makes me cry.
kristin scott thomas is amazing.
and finalement my favourite bit of dans paris [another christophe honore movie-gawd he's genius!]

#you saw her bathing on the roof/her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you#

i watched the watchmen.

observation:

superhero sex [to the sound of leonard cohen's hallelujah! -choir and all] is hilarious [take my word for it, funnier than puppet sex] yes its pretty darn cheesy [good cheesy] in the comic but this was just over the top belly laugh material..mostly because of the song [hallelujah sex! and all that...]. way to highlight the cheese :) but it was also one of the moments where i agreed with the song choice. it worked with the moment. added to the mood. there were some bits which really did not need the over the top *cough* commerical number...
good movie. not the book. the book is better. duh.
ps. comic book sex is hot. it was only cheesy because it involved dan and laurie.

book/movie laurie annoys me. ^just a thought. less annoying XD more entertaining.

random survey time!

was thinking about things ill miss when im in blore...like hair brushed into eyes hairstyles and man bags! which led to me sitting outside the union counting off the number of fellows with man bags, duffels, backpacks and sans bag. refer photograph below for my definition of a man bag. basically not a briefcase with a strap. a bag specifically made for men to carry like a hand bag. on one shoulder. as opposed to a bag for the back. hee i did see a coupla guys with really girly man bags. really borderline handbag affairs. mostly the duffellers were the sporty sorts but one...looked big enough for a gun. s'all im saying. and lots of guys seem not to have the need to carry stuff about at all.

to continue: man bags range from plain cloth ones (sometimes with badges on), lovely worn leather ones, ishtyle colourful ones with vespas and rainbows on... ohh and the important part! only men carry man bags. i could buy a man bag and carry it around. but then it would cease to be a man bag.

so does the sort of bag you carry say anything about you (other than the amount of stuff you have/need)...it requires further in depth study i say!

really? his name is...Chuck?

just watched a random episode of gossip girl...and omg the voice over. it's like audio commentary for the blind. except you know that they didnt make it for the blind audience. so then it becomes this thing that points out exactly what you've just seen in case you're so warped you cant read between the lines anymore or even see what's right in front of you...it's very psychological and disturbing...yet it makes you want to watch more. and the ending! xoxo gossip girl. which makes it even more of a 'thing' ...this mildly robotic entity who knows better than you do. who wants you to question your handle on the reality of the show. ohh it has so many layers.

xoxo
