The One With the Strange Soup

Tune Jo Na Kaha, from New York (rendered by Mohit Chauhan)
I had the chance today to return to my campus after the span of a year, which is a long time when you consider the chunk of time we as students spend in our college campuses. I always loved my college campus. As I’ve written [...]

Carrot Cake!

Its my birthday! Birthdays are usually rough on me: I always get a little gloomy and moody, one, because getting older isn’t fun, and two, and probably the bigger reason, because they get over so fast and you know it and you can’t stop it and then its all gone for another year. Yep, I [...]

Of this and that…

Meherbaan, A.R. Rahman, from Ada
All the time until I finally leave for HK is going to be very, very busy. Its already been quite full, although I’ve had more than my share of lazing around and aimlessly youtubing videos (speaking of which, I’m addicted to 우리 결흔했어요 (We Got Married): its reality television you [...]

Wherein I Rave About Various Musicians

Solely music-related post.
One, I can’t thank Javabeans enough for this post on Yi Sung Yol, its like a gift for us information-starved fans. http://www.dramabeans.com/2008/06/profilegiveaway-2-yi-sung-yol/
It has so much information on his music, his background with UMe&Blue, his personal journey and insight into his own music, and is just a fantastic read. Best of all, she translated [...]

Keep making me feel…precious :)

Thank You, Kim Sang Hun. (Instrumental)
So, along with a note for all my fellow graduates, a shout-out of thanks needs to go out to many people.
The three people who have made me what I am, good or bad. My parents and my brother. You put up with the most of my crap, my bad behavior, [...]

Class of 2008…Its Time.

New Soul, Yael Anim. (best viewed full screen )
By all weather accounts (though who believes those anyway), the weather was supposed to be horrible. Rain and clouds, the threat of the ceremony being pushed indoors, and delayed flights to add to the inauspicious start . At 6am it was still grey, so [...]

Not this post, ‘course. You can bet on that

Sha La La, Full House OST
‘Coz how can you not listen to this and remember Song Hye Kyo posing around on her trip, and wish you could pose around and look as pretty on your trips?
Right after I made my first post about my recent [...]

Impressions

Yeh Tara Woh Tara, Swades
For the first time ever, I’ve been really jetlagged. For the past couple days I’ve been in a zombie state, and crashed randomly come 8-9pm. I think its the joint effect of being sick for most of the trip and getting little/no sleep, plus traveling constantly which makes for a terrible [...]

The Return…

Its been a while.
I always planned that when I’d have a really good stretch of time free (i.e, no college, no classes, no exams, no (or not too many) applications, no significant stress factors), I’d get all the other chores done. You know, that stuff you jot down for later? And that becomes even later? [...]

Krakow, Oh Crakow!

From Oswiecim the train to Krakow costs about 11 zlotys, and the ride is about and hour and a half. We reached Krakow around lunchtime and headed straight to our hostel. The hostel, which we reserved beforehand, was wonderful. Highly recommend it to anyone who’s planning to make a tourist stop at Krakow. Krakow, being [...]
