Exam time!!

Ok, so I gave my English paper yesterday. With English, you can't really tell how it went; it all depends on how the examiner will mark your answers. I think it was alright. A little lame, a little lengthy but alright.
And I have the worst of the worst coming up this week. So, cross my fingers!!
Well, otherwise there is not much going on. I have to watch the first movie of Inuyasha. So that's it. Until next time, goodbye!!

Boards and birthdays


Well, well. The day is over. I think it was one of my most peaceful birthdays. Nothing too exciting but I actually liked the day. Plenty of wall posts, messages, scraps and calls. I started my day with watching Inuyasha (hehe). That went on for about the whole morning. Then I had lunch (...) I finished one tiny chapter of Chemistry II - Synthetic Fibers. Very small thing. I met up with Nikeeta Dutta. We went to the park and talked crap for about an hour. We had a Coke bottle, what did you expect? Dad got a small cake. Mom, dad, my cousin brother and I shared it. It was pretty nice. I think it was Devil's Delight. Then I surfed the net for some Sesshoumaru pictures since I've gotten so obsessed with him these days. Then everyone went to sleep. I tried drawing him, but hey, it was my first try. He looked very anime but not very Seshy. Fluffy hahaaha. So that was it. And now comes the terror of the EXAMS!!! OMG!!! Day after tomorrow!!! NOOOOOOO!!!

Happy birthday to me!!!

Happy? Right. I have my board exams starting in three days and its still called a "happy" birthday. More like sad, miserable, torturous, hopeless, jeering, murderous, nightmarish, sickening... Yes I can go on and on.
Even if it is only and English exam. Its hopeless studying for that subject because only luck can give you marks. Then there physics 1 and 2, chem 1 & 2, economics, math 1 & 2 and then IT. Sad life I have. One good thing is: I got a new keyboard!!!!! Its so sleek, black and hot. Best part is: the y key works! yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!
Thanks to my obsession with anime (it just has to happen during my exams doesn't it?) I am trying fruitlessly to get some work done.
Well, I got plenty of messages from friends wishing me. And along with this month's pocket money, dad gave some extra cash. Cool right?
It's really boring. I;m feeling trapped, exhausted, restless and pissed off at the same time. At least I don't have to wait too long. Just two weeks more. Then I'll be free!! Not exactly, I'll still have to study for CET. Oh well, such is life I guess.
Long live Inuyasha, Sesshoumaru, Edward and Alphonse Elric, Hawkeye and Roy Mustang!!!

Hacking and coughing into a bowl of tears

10 more days... Could it get any worse? Maybe, maybe not.
An
yway, I finished watching Fullmetal Alchemist and the movie a few days back. The process involved sneaking into the room at 1 a.m. connecting the stupid Kingfisher airlines earphones and watching till 3.30 a.m and getting red-eyed. Not only because it was too late and all, but also because there are times when I actually cried. Like, boo-hoo this can't beeeeeeeeeeeee!!! It's the only show that's touched me soooo deeply. I really love it, but its bittersweet. I can't think about it without getting all sad about how he'she died, how it all ended. So I'm going to try and find solace in the manga where the ending is not yet here.
Enough now. I get too sad.
So once I'm done with m
y boards, I'll watch Inu yasha and card captor sakura. Its been years since I saw them. I'm trying to refrain myself from doing that now. And so far so good!!
I finall
y got my Windows re-formatted. I still need a new keyboard. The comp's behaving better. And I've not been studying as I should. I'm doomed. I've mentioned this before, but still - I'm doomed!
M
y cousin is coming from Bangalore and he's going to stay I don't know how long for some stupid training course of SIX F***ING months in his aviation thingy thingy. Damn him. Couldn't he go somewhere else?
So that's that. I'm doomed in more wa
y than one. That's as eloquent as I can get now.
B
ye.

KLAAS


KLAAS


Klaas’ fascination of putting on electronic sounds was aroused within the Cologne club scene in the late 90ies: He debuted with several releases and approached ambitiously the art of mixing sounds. Soon after, the open-minded Cologne based DJ moved forward to the energetic electro-sound producing his first electro-vinyl Slip & Slide with Micha Moor for the Cologne label Scream and Shout Recordings, which paved directly the way onto the playlists of reputable DJ celebrities. From then on, there was no way to stop him making a go of his passion.
The releases Get Twisted and Confession were placed in the Top 5 of the German Dance Charts. Following remixes for several DJs like Dr. Kucho & Gregor Salto, John Morley, Chrissi D! and Jens Lissat, Klaas prepared the UK Chart-Act The Freelance Hellraiser and, together with another Sony BMG UK-Act, the remix Klaas vs. I’m Finn – I Love You at the end of 2006.
His distinctively energetic style of sound is also convincing for his Swiss followings. Accordingly, no less than DJ Antoine ordered a Klaas remix DJ Antoine – This Time, which is included within the current Egoiste release.
Following the worldwide resonance, remix inquiries of pop music celebrities won’t be long in coming. Only a few weeks ago, Klaas mixed the recently released single Version of “No Angels – Goodbye To Yesterday” by transforming the popstars-like sound to an electronical house-mix – excellently suitable for clubs.
However the Cologne whiz kid is unstoppable: Despite several remixes amongst others for Eddie Thoneick, Erick Decks and Aston Martinez, he focuses constantly on his own productions: So, the new release Micha Moor – Music is Dope produced by Klaas&MichaMoor came in april – one more time with strong vocals and sounds and ready to rock you!
Also for his Scream&Shout co-worker Micha Moor he worked out even a dual-remake of the forthcoming release “Micha Moor – Space” and delivered two as usual massive but independent mixes. The “Klaas Club Mix” became a worldwide success and topped both the Beatport and German Dance Charts at number 1 slot for weeks.
Finally in November of 2007 Klaas.. higly anticipated third solo-single “The Way” is released, by which Klaas is setting new standards. With his three solid clubmixes he shows his wide range variety in the electrohouse genre. At once in the first week “The Way” was placed at number 2 slot of the German Dance Charts.
Just back from his almost three-week dj-tour through Australia and Newzealand he made in the beginning of 2008 his new reworks of well known classics like „Guru Josh - Infinity“, „Horny United - Crazy Paris“, or “G&G – My My My”. All of these records made the way to the top 10 of the German Dance Charts.

Shortly after this his remix of DJ Disciples - Work it out was released. A logical result of his immensely qualitative output was the nomination at the "Beatport Music Awards 2008” at which Klaas was nominated as one of the 10 worldwide best Electro House Artists.
Further dj-tours of Canada and Australia make his fourth release only in May 2008 possible. To “Feel The Love” he contributed again three strong mixes and thus he proved once more his extreme flexibility and versitality as an Electro-House producer.


See? That's what his account on MySpace says. He's got some real good stuff going about him.
Of what I've heard of his music he experiments a little after ever
y couple of tracks with a slightly different sound. They're all upbeat and whichever Klaas track has vocals, it's catchy because of it. Day by day he's becoming more and more global. Like Armin Van Buuren. In his case, not only house, trance and progressive buffs have heard of him but also those who listen to pop and watch Mtv and Vh1. Between Micha Moor and Klaas, I vote: Klaas! His tracks have variety but they seem to blend in together and they're not very repetitive.
Inspite of "Infinit
y"'s massive success, I think he could have done a better job on it. His remixes of "Pilling me" and "This Time" are more energetic and vibrant but hey, I'm not complaining as long as he's around and doing is own thing.
He sort of blends electro and house along with some pop-ish tunes (like the vocals and electric guitars here and there). The end result is fun, fresh and I love it!
M
y current favourite is his remix of DJ Shumilin's "Roller Head". It's stuck in my head!
Well, anyway, that's the end of this post. Go Klaas!

10 hours of buzzz

OH NO... Yesterday at midnight I sat down to take stock of what I had to do to finish my portion for the boards and I couldn't believe the amount of stuff that has piled up. Like Everest closing in on me like an army and 27th is D-day. (The mountain not the chaat masala) According to my calculations, I'd have to work at least 10 hours to finish in time. What am I, a robot? Even robots are treated better! And now my wish changes. I want a photographic memory!!! Like Megumi (right?) or that kid in Hannah Montana, I forget his name.
And I've started coughing again. Oh, I soooooo needed that. As if D-da
y wasn't enough. What am I being punished for? Sneaking into the kitchen at midnight to have those delicious chocolate cookies? Why dear god, you wanted them? you should have told me!
One good thing is that Dad is planning to bu
y a new computer. This one is worse than a pile of short-circuited wires with a clown hat on the top. My y key doesn't work so I have to keep copy pasting the damned thing. The monitor keeps going off on its own and you'd have thought it liked winking too much. I don't even want to get started on my CPU. Here's the gist, it would have worked better if I threw it out my window and then plugged it in again. And I live four floors up. I mean jeeeeeeeeeeez you're the machine, not me!! I haven't been programmed to struggle for half an hour to get you switched on!!
So dad's going to bu
y me an external hard drive. yay!!! 150 GB nothing fancy but still... And I have heaps of music, movies and pictures and that HDD is my only hope. Amen.
So, well. Toda
y wasn't very bad when it came to my progress in Doomsday preparation. I did Magnetism and its numericals, Ethers and a bit of Integration.
Tomorrow, I'd like to do a special on Klaas. On this blog, not m
y studies. Duh. A taste of him, a taste of me, eh? If you're a house or an electro house buff, you'd have heard of this guy. He's been around since the late 90's though I got into house just last year =D Ok, so more on him tomorrow!

yyyyyyyyyyyyyyye

Yawwwwnn - 2nd edition (already!)

No I didn't do anything interesting in the middle of the night... I didn't study much either. And today I just slept the whole morning. Weekends are always a drag because Dad's at home. That means barely any time on the comp which should be a good thing but it sure doesn't feel like it. And yesterday my net connection went pooof for the whole day which was really pathetic but it should be a good thing. Why, you ask? Well because MY FREAKING BOARD EXAMS ARE STARTING ON 27TH THIS MONTH THAT'S BLOODY WHY! And it's one of the most important exam I'll ever give. As in, exam exam. Not life lessons and a test to them or some crab. I meant crab only.
Yeah well I'm pretty out of it today so it'll be best if I shut up because I'll only whine and it won't be the kind you could enjoy. Smash your monitor more like. See? That's the best I could come up with!! Arrrrrrrrrrrgh
Ok bye

Yaaaaaaaaawn

Yep. That's my motto these days. Lack of sleep, not that I do anything great while I'm awake. The usual: read a book, listen to music, catch hopping Chihuahuas and barking frogs (or is that the other way around?) nothing of note noooo... Not plotting to overthrow all leaders (sorry Mishter Obaaamaaa), trample losers and declare myself the queen of the world! Too Opal Koboi.
Not even sharpen my blade, get red eyes ( I mean RED ) and grow claws. Who would that be? Hmm...
And no, not even sneak out, get on a helmet, fly out of Nofra in a motorcycle and save the day! er..night.
No what I do is....nothing. Depends on your meaning of nothing, but I gave you my meaning of not nothing. Get it?
Take today for example. Tip toe tip toe, wish you were alone, tip toe tip toe, put the Pepsi in the fridge to make it cold, tip toe tip toe, open the door, tip toe tip toe....And watch Prince Caspian. With Lays. Some American thingy thingy flavour. It was ok. And not a roach in sight!!!! hah! So I was up till 4 a.m. Lot of good that did me. I woke up at 9.30 and obviously there was no running water. Huh. A running nose yes, not running water. And I prefer the latter.
I like plain running too. Speed, to be more preise. Hence my liking for cars and Edward Cullen (but speed's just one of the reasons, if you catch my drift). It's not anything my Internet connection is good at. That's why I have to keep the stupid thing on for 16 hours straight for a 300 MB file. Loser. And I'm supposed to be eco-friendly. Balderdash when it comes to this fat chunk of wires, plastic and nothing else. I want a laptop!!!!!!
I don't think I'll be going to a hostel after all. Dad's staying till end 2010 at least. Great. I haven't had time to weigh the possibilities of that. I'll let you know when I do that. And tell you if the whole thing will lead to an unfortunate, untimely and totally undeserved death of me!!
Sorry for the morbid state of my future expectations. I'm not morbid. Not at all. Get it?
macabre

sick
unhealthy
unwholesome
cadaverous
corrosive
dark
diseased
dreadful
gloomy
grim
grisly
Hmm... I pick unhealthy. Skinny as I am. No! No! Honest! I don't have a morbid personality! As you know, I'm scrupulously honest =D
Yea well, I have to go study now. I wished they taught us better things like making machine guns, tanks, poisons....Not morbid! Not morbid!
Wish me luck. Doomsday is 21 days away! (20 for the French haha)

RPL

"Role Playing in Life".
Today, I'm a student. Gag.,\
Really, most times, I think I should just give up civilization and live in a forest. Or something like that. Or give me an enchanted something which I can use to transport myself into fantasy world. Better.
But noooooooooooo here I am, stuck on poor planet Earth. She who's heating up a tad bit too fast for anybody's liking. But I supposed She's used to all sorts of crap. A billion years ago, she was just a few pieces of rock. Now, she's a planet! Woot!!
Yeah well, I'm still a student. Wonder how many million years it'll take for me to get older? I guess I'm not very different from a few pieces of human right now. My brain's in tatters and so is this dratted computer. Loser thing. Dad's going to reformat it. PERCY JACKSON!!
O' greatest of all days, (I really hate my y key. Fingers like a hammer) 5th may!! Can you not come sooner? I shall go cold and grey by the time you arrive; my life a meandering wisp in the stampede of other poor souls that walk this planet.
I wouldn't mind you either: 12th march. Some relief but not quite.
Actually I'm waiting for 8th May.
Oh well.
Thank you, O! reader of this post. I'm sure I've confused and befuddled your mind with my crazed mumblings. But do come again and you could get dazed rumblings.
Peace man.

First Post

I'm already blank. Great. Well, I'm not expecting much from myself with this blog. It's just there. I'll post when I feel like. And it'll have lots of just random stuff.
Hoot to Aashna =D
Go Gory!!!
Glory?
Foooooooooooooooooooooooooood
Ok that's it.
Shut up.
Fine.
Fine.
