  1. Locked out of the house… and my keys are with me!

    September 2, 2008 by pranav

    I live in an independent house, the landlord has generously rent out 2 rooms of his house and the terrace to me. The landlord however has access to my section of the house via a connecting door. I leave the connecting door open so that the maid can enter my section of the house and clean the house in my absence.

    As it turns out, the maid locked my entrance door and now I am locked out till the landlord returns.

    I left the wifi router on in the morning. So, now I have internet access sitting outside my house! I wish I had a password for the door the way I have one for my router. I find it compelling to blog about this situation. Hell, even my torrents are downloading as I type.


  2. life related bs

    August 14, 2008 by pranav

    I find it difficult to deal with myself. I stay alone in the house but do not deal with myself. I distract myself and don’t do much with my time although I love to pretend outside that I am super busy. The truth is I just don’t have my priorities decided. Sometimes even when I hv them decided, I do not hv the resolution within me to execute them. Why is my head such a mess? I love people, but I ignore relationships. Am I insecure about everything? I feel fragile. Always dream of being a better person, but never take control. I hv let my life run in the default mode. Have you felt like this?

  4. 6 Serial Bomb Blasts in Bangalore

    July 25, 2008 by pranav

    I had mentioned this about the Hyderabad bomb blasts last year. This time they have victimized Bangalore. I pray all my friends and their families in Bangalore are safe.

    Every year this happens. Bombay trains in 2006, Hyderabad in 2007 and now its Bangalore this year. Makes you stop what you are doing and ask questions and you realize they are no damn answers to these random events that can thrash the peace.


  5. Pearl Jam – Black (live)

    July 25, 2008 by pranav

    I came across this beautiful music video. I remember back in college I would listen to this song repeatedly. If you pay attention to the lyrics you would somehow connect with the song for sure.

    Black – Pearl jam

    Hey…oooh…
    Sheets of empty canvas, untouched sheets of clay
    Were laid spread out before me as her body once did
    All five horizons revolved around her soul
    As the earth to the sun
    Now the air I tasted and breathed has taken a turn
    Ooh, and all I taught her was everything
    Ooh, I know she gave me all that she wore
    And now my bitter hands chafe beneath the clouds
    Of what was everything?
    Oh, the pictures have all been washed in black, tattooed everything…

    I take a walk outside
    I’m surrounded by some kids at play
    I can feel their laughter, so why do I sear
    Oh, and twisted thoughts that spin round my head
    I’m spinning, oh, I’m spinning
    How quick the sun can, drop away
    And now my bitter hands cradle broken glass
    Of what was everything?
    All the pictures have all been washed in black, tattooed everything…
    All the love gone bad turned my world to black
    Tattooed all I see, all that I am, all I’ll ever be…yeah…

    Uh huh…uh huh…ooh…
    I know someday you’ll have a beautiful life, I know you’ll be a star
    In somebody else’s sky, but why
    Why, why can’t it be, why can’t it be mine
