Some random stuff that I keep thinking I will write about, but then it turns out to be a huge debate and a major overload on my brain.
Education/Literacy/civilised!
Ever wonder what the three have in common or how they are different? It is always observed when in the masses. There was a chance to notice the differences in abundance last week. You know when you talk to, let’s say chauffeurs, maids and people from the servicing sector, that they may not be the most brightest but they are quick learners.
It was extremely disheartening, that these people who probably haven’t even completed high school successfully talk in English and junta erupts laughing. Now that without a humorous context is rude! Considering that these people are ones who have probably studied in a non-English medium, haven’t even gone beyond high school, their grasp of the language is also expected to be poor. Actually, even my language has rotten, with every passing day since school! And expecting Shakespearean language of me is foolishness! So is grammatical correctness from them.
Now the people who laugh! God forgive me for all the abuse that I have rendered! But having graduated form colleges, and spoken English for ever, their English Sucks! They have this nauseating American accent, which I am sure induces nausea for the Americans as well. And grammar…. Americans kill the language and these people are the ones who feast on the leftovers! Like the vultures! Now its not something that you assume you are doing good with.. lets face it, its just bad English! And oh yeah… you carry with you a fake attitude, and display a complete lack of confidence when you use “ummm… so the thing is..ummm” Damn you.. I know there is a thing.. blah blah blah! Oh! then there is the grammar… apparently, the effect of the mother tongue!
I thought this would be a good example.
X: hey
Me: hi
X: everythin alright?
Me: yes.. all good. : )
X: if u say so!!!
And that left me with an expression that can’t be expressed with my meager vocabulary!
Many of you know how I try, well that’s the least feasible so far to get a good and decent admit into one of the ivy leagues b-schools in the country! Not the world; am content with my country, mostly because I am a nice big pauper.
Anyway, when I saw this video, it seemed very introspective and makes me realize how nice it has been going through those nearly futile and licentious attempts.
For those out there who want have/had taken up cat and will be taking it… this one is for all of you!!!
And as for me, well… sigh… Damn!!!!! Whenever the time is right! God bless.
(ironically a three minute video, its been three years since i gave cat!)
I also realise that I need to improvise on my blogging habit! more posts, possibly after the weekend. the only hassle being i am offline and cant access online dictionaries or wikipedia.
There are seldom things that I don’t care about (most of you know what are such things) the most important reason is that I am extremely to most sincerely dispassionate about them. In case a mild disinterest exists I can still tolerate and co-exist as in the case fellow human beings.
Things that I am passionate about, like making money, music, shoes etc I tend to improvise and want more. Get things to perfection. Make various different combinations and devise an integral multiple that would keep me happy for sometime at least. Thus, the continuous need for perfecting is what keeps me interest. The perfect shoe, the perfectly crisp crunch of currency! Sigh!!!!! A long wish list.
The perfect setting… the perfect thought… perfectly lined eyes… perfectly tuned strings… Sigh!!!!
And as the search for perfection continues… on the web, I encounter what I think would be a perfect high budget purchase! The kind that you don’t really need, but you still can do with it… the kind that would probably get you the next best shot in your portfolio.
EOS-1Ds Mark III with an EF 800mm f/5.6L IS USM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And that would make my worth lesser by a couple of hundred thousands lighter by dough. But then a good camera is always an investment!!! Nevertheless, there is always something better in the market!!! Damn, the chaos that happens when u decide to go shopping. For now, I shall not indulge, cos I don’t see a major use for these in the near future, unless I decide to quit my current job and join Animal Planet or NGC. : ) (I do wish they would reimburse me then! Lol ;))
And this is the real deal.. A sample foto with just the camera. no telephoto involved. Photo captured with a 10 sec lag and 100 ISO. f/4.6(I think) I didn’t note the specs when I saw the photo nightscene.jpg
