Forest Of Shadows

Firstly the band and the pic and all the necessary info can be found here – http://www.last.fm/music/Forest+of+Shadows

Been tripping on their MCD Where Dreams Turn to Dust since a month i suppose and I totally love this project.

Been working on making my monthly report for the organsation where I’m interning, been quite a ride actually, all this time, people treat me with utmost respect and then they expect me to do the work too, no complaints though, that’s one thing I’ve noticed, what ever I do is ok with them and they respect every single moment of me in the office which i quite enjoy, well, good for all of us. Nevertheless, I’m gonna do a good job for the moment and save the best for the rest, honestly, all I did was gather info and put them in a chronological order and editing it all piece by piece, our results have been announced and well its 1st Class again, Im not disappointed at all, infact I’m quite thrilled that I’ve got nothing to carry for the next year, so it’s a good sign, as days keep rolling off on the calendar, I wonder how will it all be, specially for my parents, I’m gonna be in Hyderabad for the next month and then god knows when i’ll return hopefully, if all things go well, I should be getting a job in Hyderabad itself, I like working here, my friends are all here and even if they’re all around the world, eventually they will be here. Being in Hyderabad for over 21 years has taught me quite many things, the most important of them all is that, I can drive anywhere in the world :) Well, partly a joke but then the reality is comforting. Opeth’s new album is out and is called “Watershed” and guess I have to get it asap, this is one band that never will have any disrespect from my side since they give their fans the same year after year, album after album.

I’ve been sending funny mailers and stuff in our Google Group for the educated (half) MBA’s out there in Christ, Half cos, its just been an year, an year’s still to go and hopefully will be better for one and all, eventually I’d want all the people I know to be happy, if not atleast successful, yes, you can have one without the other, having both is excellent though I’ve still not met that person who is, some day I know I could meet that person in the mirror itself, optimistically, on a good note, its not something bad to wish for and it’s these wishes that keep on going, if not life would’ve been really boring and dull. Honestly my mind is all calm and at the same time random about what’s exactly going on everywhere, got lots of work to do like always, eventually in the words of Dr. House “Humanity is over-rated” and I agree with him.

House MD, the new TV Series that I’m hooked to, thanks to Chandrakala, is really awesome, I love the script, its brilliant and it’s something that’s everywhere but people fail to acknowledge it, since they know themselves that somewhere down the line, things hurt and when they hurt, It can get pretty nasty, I would not say how many people would like House MD, the sarcasm is totally on a different note and level and one I believe should be able to deal with it, watching it made me think one thing, Dr. House is a genius and honestly I dont want to be him, but i want me to be something that would help myself, in episode DNR, season 1, the musician, says something which shook me to my core and made me wonder what that was all about, simply saying it is what everyone wants but fails to get or rather fails to recognise , oh btw this was that dialogue

John: You don’t risk jail and your career just to save somebody who doesn’t want to be saved unless you got something, anything, one thing. The reason normal people got wives and kids and hobbies, whatever, that’s because they don’t got that one thing that hits them that hard and that true. I got music; you got this. The thing you think about all the time, the thing that keeps you south of normal. Yeah, makes us great, makes us the best. All we miss out on is everything else. No woman waiting at home after work with the drink and the kiss. That ain’t gonna happen for us.
.
Dr. House: That’s why God made microwaves.
.
John: Yeah. But when it’s over… It’s over.
.
I think I’ve said enough, you can ponder over that quote :)
