Crash!

"It's the sense of touch.


What?


Any real city, you walk, you know? You brush past people. People bump into you.
In L.A., nobody touches you. We're always behind this metal and glass. I think we miss that touch so much that we crash into each other just so we can feel something. "

--Excerpt from the movie "Crash"

Crash is one of the most beautifully choreographed (if I can use that word) movies I've seen in the recent future. I guess all of us end up "crashing" into each other where no one has time for anyone else; even to themselves. I know this cos I've become a Mumbaikar. I've become an unknown entity in this city. We "crash" in the local trains and after that, we wait for no one.

And no one waits for us.

In The Deep...

Thought you had
all the answers
to rest your heart upon.
But something happens,
don't see it coming, now
you can't stop yourself.
Now you're out there swimming...
In the deep.
In the deep.

Life keeps tumbling your heart in circles
till you... Let go.
Till you shed your pride, and you climb to heaven,
and you throw yourself off.
Now you're out there spinning...
In the deep.
In the deep.
In the deep.
In the deep.

And now you're out there spinning...
And now you're out there spinning...
In the deep.
In the deep.
In the deep.

And the silence,
or your secrets, well
raise a worry hand.
Well, you can pin yourself back together,
to who you thought you were.
Now you're out there livin'...
In the deep.
In the deep.
In the deep.

In the deep...

Now you're out there spinning...
Now you're out there swimming...
Now you're out there spinning...
In the deep.
In the deep.
In the deep.
In the deep...

"Happy Birthday to Me!!"

It's a different feeling when you spend your birthday all alone. You want to spend it with the people that matter to you but then they aren't here. Anyways, i'm used to it so it doesn't matter to me.

Just stayed at home.. surfed.. chatted.. watched TV.. that's it... A Simple Birthday!
Came in now to the office to have my dinner. Butter Toast and a glass of Bournvita. Yummmmm!

Here's to me.. "Happy B'day, dude"!!
