| Attended People Of the Verse (POV)'s debut event. It was really good. They had eight curated poets and two 'spot slots'. The subjects were wide ranging and the presentation pretty good. The thing that amused me was that the announcer introduced each of the eight poets as 'amazing, amazing', then adding 'most amazing' and some category! I guess I'm old fashioned but I feel that this kind of stuff should be toned down, OMG, am I right But otherwise, nice event, nice coffee at the venue and chaat at a restaurant by myself afterward. (Indian Sweet House, sev puri and dabeli.) |
| Balram was, quite literally, tearing his hear out. The studio had been booked, the singers were on standby and the producer was waiting ... Waiting for lyrics and a tune. Lyrics and a tune that Balram should've delivered to him three days ago. "When the muse is sick, there's no music," he said aloud and then laughed hysterically. He was about to seriously annoy the richest producer in the industry, and he was thinking of puns. “The moon is full tonight.” The voice interrupted his frantic packing. "What?" he stammered, turning to find his best friend, Pankaj, standing in the doorway. “The moon is full tonight," Pankaj repeated. "And you are looking frazzled. Come for a walk, it'll do you good." Balram didn't protest. Slipping on a pair of shoes, he pocketed his house keys and grasped Pankaj firmly by the arm. "Lead on," he said. They walked down the empty street, the moon looking down on them. "Whoa!" Pankaj cried, "watch out, buddy, you almost bumped into ..." He stopped. Balram was beaming at him. "I have it! I have it!" Balram yelled. The song was a huge hit. "I've found the moon On this empty street . Not in the sky In my heartbeat." 203 Words |
| Had a great session of Souls Connect at Ishan's place yesterday! Six people and Ishan and Ariel. 5 people recited poetry, one sang and I conducted a re-write the proverbs activity. There was a lot of great sharing and people loved my activity. Had green tea, samosa and Ooty biscuit afterward! |
| Enjoyed Lunch and Tea with Shyamala after GPO. Good fun! |
| A birthday lunch each on Saturday and Sunday! Saturday - home made at my aunt's place, and Sunday at a Burmese restaurant! Great fun! |

48-HOUR CHALLENGE : Media Prompt
Deadl..." Hmmmm. I wonder why people are so fascinated with bringing the dead back to life. I guess it's about the unknown, and solving the mystery of what happens when one dies. Sometimes I talk to Mom or Dad in my head, and I wish I could talk to Hemant Mama, but not enough to bring them to life again. Like it says in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, the dead belong elsewhere. They wouldn't want to be here and it wouldn't be right to force them to be. So yeah, couldn't relate much to this one! |
