34. When pictures speak

Devil decided to bug me again, and tagged me. An 'Angel' in disguise I should say, for that brought me here, back to blogging after a looong gap.

* For the 20 questions that have been asked, write down your honest answer (in a few words).

26. Let The Music Do The Talking

Devil tagged me again! This one’s all about muziq. I’m no muziq buff and couldn’t do this tag alone. Had to take help…

The tag doesn’t have a title..it’s left for the bloggers.Let The Music Do The Talking is a song by Aerosmith(well I haven’t heard the song myself…google found this one for me…)

1. Which song is being played in your mind right now?
Heart of Worship by Matt Redman(ya, as they say...it's hard to play any other song in mind when its currently being played in the Mp3. )

2. One song that describes your life... (No self made compositions please!)Amazing grace……“But by grace, I am what I am” [1 Chor10:15]

3. The song you listen to most on your I-pod/ MP3/ cell/ PC/ etc
My favourites keep on changing from time to time…but invariably I have to hear the windows music each time I turn on/off the comp. Dun think I’ve heard any other music this number of times….( I know… that was a poor attempt…sigh!)

4. A song that describes best the following stages in your life
- School days: KK's Yaaron Dosti Badi Hi Haseen Hai....
- Love: Love by Petra based on 1 Corinthians 13….there’s no better way to describe it!
- Your mood right now: Linking Park’s Numb…the dull boring vacation is responsible for making me go NUMB!

5. Your all time favourite song and the reason for it... maybe some memory/ some funny story etc!!!
Ditto answer to ques no:3 …my favourites keep on changing….

6. A song you wish you hadn't heard!!! (More than one is always a pleasure!!!)
All..(well not all…almost all…) the heavy metals and death metals and other metal craps(milder versions being an exception) which threaten to pop my brain out of the head and eyeballs out of their sockets…

Death metals have disgusting lyrics too. Take a look at A Skull full of Maggots by Cannibal Corpse. Dont tell me i didnt warn you...the lyrics are repulsive...

Lying there cold after a torturous death
Your life ended fast you took your last breath
Dead in a grave, your final place
The maggots infest your disfigured face
Pus through your veins takes the place of blood
Decay sets in, bones begin to crack
Thrown six feet down left to rot
Brains oozing black down the side of your broken neck
Skull full of maggots
They enter your tomb - maggots - beginning to feast - maggots
Crawling on you - maggots - now they eat you - maggots
Rotting maggots - maggots - infesting your corpse - maggots
Parasites of the dead - maggots - now dwell in your head

Ew! Who comes up with such stuff?!

7. A song that would best describe... me
(Hey, I took pains to tag you, I guess I deserve this ;-) )
A rather difficult question to describe a rather difficult female…but the good old nursery rhyme is rather a special song for her….so here’s to you Lee---London bridge is falling down…

8. (I just couldn't miss this!!!) If, you were in an elevator with Himesh Reshammiya and Altaf Raja, you would...
(please please please... something funny!!!)
Er…who are they??( toldya I’m no good in dis muziq field :(

K. Now to tag people.
I tag Chronicwriter, MultiMenon, Viajero, Evil-blogger, Crazy, Paroo and all others who want to let muziq do the talking…

23. 123...

Tag again! But this one’s quite an interesting tag. It’s weird too. I got tagged for this post by Lee and Chrony at about the same time, when I had already made plans for stealing this tag from some arbit blog:D

The rules: Pick up the nearest book. Go to page 123. Find the fifth sentence. Post the next three sentences. Tag five people, and acknowledge the person who tagged you.

The book that I found nearest to me was my mother’s personal diary. No! I dare not touch that one…for one thing, the diary obviously doesn’t have its pages numbered, besides who knows what lies in the 5^th sentence of the 123^rd page. Should I dare browse through her diary? Naa….

So I went for the next book; found the 123^rd page; and the 5^th sentence goes on like:

That is why worldly pleasures cannot satisfy our deepest longings.

The next 3 sentences…

The cross says, “Don’t look to the material world for ultimate meaning and fulfilment.” The day before His crucifixion, Jesus warned, “Now is the time for judgement on this world”(John 12:31). Our worldliness was in Christ, and the Father judged it at the cross.

The book is Outrageous Mercy by WM.P.Farley.(Yea I still haven’t finished reading that book which I had started 3 blog-posts ago ;)

Now,the tagging part:

Crazy (glad to see you back after 1 whole year)
Viajero
Multimenon
MechRani(do you know that she has a blog?)
Harivishnu
(huh? All NITians??)

Now for the acknowledgements(what’s this for anyways??):

Lee: Blah…blah..blah…blah..blah
Chrony:Blah blah…blah blah…blah blah…
(I bet you guys’ll not get acknowledged like this ever, willya? You can thank me now!;)

9. The Game continues.....

This is total crap. DUMB I’ll say. To be frank, I wouldn’t have ventured to write this post if not for obvious reasons. Well…no prizes for guessing the reasons…Ya, I have yet again been affected by the looso-musia-syndrome. Dearth of topics to write about, coupled with the constant nagging of fella-bloggers who had tagged me eons ago compelled me to commit this act. And of course, a little publicity will never hurt.…so here I am, having finally joined the... er…what was it??...ya the “8RF” club.

Yup..so I’ve been Tagged by the devil and the game continues(grumble)...

Here are the rules:
1.Players start with 8 random facts about themselves.
2.Those who are tagged should post these rules and their 8 random facts.
3.Players should tag 8 other people and notify them they have been tagged.

So here goes the Eight random facts about myself:

#1. I’m one li’l lazy bump. My laziness knows no bounds. It can take any form ranging from waiting at length for someone to pass by to take that li’l notebook from my cupboard to postponing this post by nearly 2 months….
But I simply love bugging people(read my testimonials ppl…). I bug people irrespective of their caste, creed, colour, sex, sect, age etc…etc…etc.

#2. The less tastier the food supplied to me is, the more I tend to eat. Believe it or not, I gained 5kilos by the end of my first year at college, surviving only on the mess food(yuk!..).Weird…Ain’t I?

#3. I’m a Hindi-challenged person. No matter how hard I try, Hindi and I never get along(sniff…sniff…) during the past one year I have witnessed many a northy friends of mine fleeing the scene when I start jabbering in ‘hindi’ :(

#4. I’m basically a night-bird. My grey cells seem to get activated only after the stroke of 12, which is why many of my blogs are posted after midnight.

#5. I’m not afraid of darkness; nor of heights, roller coaster rides; of ghosts, zombies, demons, draculas, haunted stuffs, horror films/books etc…but a tiny li’l spidy can scare me off my wits!Ya, i'm a lil arachnophobic....

#6. I hate dressing up. I find it a great burden when I am supposed to get dressed up for a wedding or a birthday party. I’m most comfortable in my bro’s shabby old T-shirts and shorts.

#7. Till 9th standard I hadn’t read much, other than Tinkle, Archies, Balarama, Balabhumi etc.(Of course, I’m not talking about text books). But now, having discovered the wonderful world of words, I cant live without books.(Of course again, I’m not talking about text books..i can do very well without ‘em).

#8. As a child, I have always wanted to be an astronaut –conquering the space; being another Kalpana Chawla; when even the sky cannot be the limit…Aaah!!.. But here I am, now stranded in the Civil-dept, not knowing where to step next…Somebody help me!!!

Phew! now that it is done with...lemme go bug 8 other people...
