hey there

gosh!! i can't believe i've not written in so long...inertia had cast an unwilling spell on my fingers and mind...i've thought about my blog every day but neglected it all the same...i feel somewhat like an irresponsible parent..lol
in the meanwhile i discovered leonard cohen, who is so absolutely, so indescribably fabulous. WINTER LADY remains my favourite song.
and i've learned that working in groups can be a real challenge, but is also fulfilling.
i quite liked slumdog millionaire...the editing was awesome and though the story was exaggerated, a bit sensational and rather over the top, i found it entertaining...sometimes poignant, sometimes funny, usually both. it was a compelling watch, or so i felt. i didn't think danny boyle was "selling" poverty to the west...it is an inescapable, entirely undeniable truth, which a scattering of designer stores and over-priced cafes can't cover up...india can shine thru' each of its citizens, and learning doesn't stay restricted to the confines of a class-room.
and we've finished three productions of our departmental production...in the course of which i've re-discovered my love for theatre and have fallen in love with "six characters..." this was really one of my most memorable experiences in JUDE so far..maybe i can continue acting!!
oh, and i have a new purple and pink quilt:-)
