These Are A Few Of My Favourite Things ♫♪♫♪♫

This maybe a tad too corny, but I think it’s time I wrote my own little list of things I love (doing).

Red wine and chocolate covered strawberries. And mint Lindt.
Potato chips. And French fries. Um, actually basically anything edibly awesome.
The sky at the time of dusk.
Making lists like these, they’re fun! :)
Going down and walking in the area on little errands preferably with a shopping list.
Sitting all day with one unputdownable book, in one place, fully engrossed and detached from the real world.
Listening to music in the dead of the night in the dark and thinking about the strangest things.
Having those philosophically intriguing deep PROductive conversations.
On sudden impulse, going to the garden for a mind-clearing walk, on random evenings, when I happen to have nothing to do.
Reminiscing looking at old photos, and listening to those memory-filled songs.
Clicking new photos, and creating new memories in new songs. :)
Being ambitiously aimless about my career. I swear, it’s like my favourite thing to do :/
Librivox-ing and Scrabble-ing :D
I want to sail around the world someday, and fly my personal jet, and scale a mountain, if not Everest :P
Don’t know yet how I propose to come around doing so, how the money’ll be made so that I can do these things. :|
I like being assigned things to do. I like doing my share of duties in a day, and follow a proper routine, wherein I do things planned-ly and all on time.
I love my daily newspaper fix. Without half an hour or more with it in a day, and I feel incomplete, like the day’s gone by too fast. I like taking things slow.
Actually, it depends on the mood. Which tends to swing a lot these days. :/
I love being at home and having nothing important or urgent to do. Because I’m one lazy bum.
I’m going to one day write a book. A biography about my mother probably. Haven’t given the subject much thought yet, but yeah, a book is on the cards.
Sometimes I cry just to feel better. Like, I’ll purposely put myself in misery. Morbid fun I know :P
I have an awesome collection of weird Hindi songs I love listening to once in a while. Like now.
One day I hope to become a professional sky diver. Among many other things. God only knows what I’ll end up doing :|
I love Lorelai Gilmore from the Gilmore Girls. I swear if her character was real we’d be married by now.
I have bi-being-tendencies. I’m sorry, world, but I can’t help myself if I appreciate feminine beauty.
I’ve noticed, that this is about the 3rd my fave shit list I’m making, and it hasn’t got any more interesting.
I wish the rains would start soon. This time I’m really hoping to enjoy the rains, unlike me-last-year, who was always half-annoyed about it raining all the time.

Moving on. I’m done with the list making. I’ve run out of things to type out.
Maybe I’ll continue next in the next post if I happen to think of new possible more profoundly interesting things I love (doing).

So, all you awesomely diverse readers, like them Norwegian and Belgian stalkers, I hope I’ve satisfied your curiosity. Which must have been non existent. But I give my self way too much self importance to doubt that you’ll weren’t curious. Ha ha :P

P.S. : I still think Daniel Radcliffe’s hot. Don’t judge me. :)

Oh and I promise the next time if I think of penning down a list like this, I’ll be more abstract and irrelevant and less clichéd :P

New Quotes

For people who believe strongly in the illusiveness of life, to doubt would be more correct than to bear full conviction about anything at all. But then again that questions their primary belief in illusions. - Aditi A world without faith in a higher power or a god is a better world where we can be responsible for our own actions; where we can be kind to one another because we want to and because it is the right thing to do instead of being frightened into behaving by the threat of divine punishment. Many events may have defied your ability to explain, events that seem like miracles, but if you are convinced that you failed to understand them because you're still woefully ignorant about the universe and the learning will never stop, then, you cannot and will not believe that a deity altered the workings of nature. Don't ignore reality in order to comfort yourself, for once you do, you make it easy for others to deceive you. Understanding breeds empathy. We do not writ...

ChAI

I used AI to make my chai this morning.   Why? Because I wanted to see if I’d still get that dopamine hit from something I didn’t even make.   I wanted to know if, by outsourcing an experience whose only purpose was my own consumption, it would take away from it.   By removing the act of boiling water, steeping tea—by only keeping the intent to make it—would I still feel the satisfaction when I took the first sip?   I read somewhere that you should aim to do hard things. That when you push yourself, when you fight resistance, and break through the boundaries of what you thought you could do, the dopamine hit is bigger.   But what happens when everything can be done by AI?   What happens when AI whispers, "I got you," and we stop doing anything at all?   The dopamine hit then wouldn’t come from the effort, but from the discovery that AI can do more, so we do less.   But here’s the catch—AI will do more, and w...

Kept / Wept / Slept

For a while now, I've been wearing house slippers that are way too big for me. Firsthand experiencing the dangers of seeking (and knowing) too much, and finding out, rudely, unceremoniously, curiosity can kill more than just the cat. While exciting to taste the fruity slurps of seemingly full-knowledge, the satisfying crunch of acknowledgement, like punching holes through a thick stack of warm copy paper, the thrill of cliff jumps can culminate into bum-first crashing into the deceptive deep. Nobody warns you. That the water is always shallower; swallowing life too fragile to keep. No one explains that the depth is a trick. That the more that you dig, the less it will stick. Hunger loud from the tum; buns left in the breadbasket: none. And thread count of those slightly expensive sheets? No reliable guarantee of sleep. Long story short, if worry is the thief of joy; self awareness is the enemy of miracles. And so the slippers go into that unopened shoe cupboard, unused, where their...
