Jumping the gun

Two days ago was my brother's birthday. So we all went and had dinner and had fun. Most of the way coming back, all I could think of was how much I miss having someone by my side.

Okay. Not that I've ever had someone by my side. But it was all I could think about. That was so weird.

I guess what started the thought was that I was joking about some people beating their wives. know, strange sense of humor. So then my Dad said something about me and my non-existent future wife, and then I said that I would never actually have a wife. Then, my brother joked that would you have a husband then? And I said yes. And he thought I was joking, he pretended to freak out and we moved on, joking about other stuff.

So even thought I am yet to even have a first boyfriend, that's all I thought about on the way home. And sent the whole night obsessing about it too.

And most of yesterday.

Damn. I need a project.

Gimme a break

I think I need to go somewhere for a while. Even if it for a few days. I think I need a break from my life.

To go to a place where no one knows my name.

See what it feels like to be alone for once.

Since I've been off for so long I feel stifled in some way. I know it's wrong for me to think that, but I just think I need a break from my life.

I think I need to grow up a little.

Need a break from being me for a few days.

Maybe that's what I need.

I hope I can do that this month.

Otherwise I might just go crazy.

Oscar Censorship

So I was watching the repeat telecast of the Oscar ceremony on Monday. No, I didn't care for Slumdog. I wanted to see the speeches made by Lance and Sean who won for Milk

So, the channel broadcasting it in India, Star Movies, decided to censor parts of the speeches made by both the winners.

The channel is owned by Rupert Murdoch and 20th Century Fox.

This is the same channel who censored Brokeback Mountain to such an extent that it appeared to be a movie about two cowboys who set up camp on a mountain.

Well, as long as we have the internet.

Really. I want to do something about it. But there is nothing I can do that will actually talk some sense into them.

*****

So Dev Patel, the star of Slumdog, finally met Angelina Jolie. Although, there was this awkward moment when she tried to adopt him.

Sorry. I just could not resist.

The Reason

Okay. So I had another blog. I got to know quite a few people who read that blog. Now I miss being able to blog anonymously.

I'm tired of people trying to judge me.

So here it is.

My thoughts. Uncensored. Uncut.

Okay. That is not supposed to have a sexual meaning.

Right.

I need to stop doing that.

You can still judge me.

But at least we won't have a fifteen minute discussion over it on g-chat.
