By Surya ⋅ August 31, 2004 ⋅ Post a comment

I dont sleep till 2.30 pm everyday - sadly I dont have that luxury and I have to get to work at 8.30am every morning. But its as good as not being alive. I am bored and listless and waiting for 2.30! And I check the clock every ten minutes..

I went down to Womad 2004 yeterday, with a group of friends. The music was amazing! I had to go for a picnic earlier and was bit late for the event, and by the time I got there, about an hr into the program - the place was jam packed. If you have been to [...]

Why do I have a blog?

By Surya ⋅ August 27, 2004 ⋅ One comment

I need to answer this here, now. Otherwise I will never remember why I started this.

By Surya ⋅ August 26, 2004 ⋅ 2 comments

The randomness of words..the beauty of the written word when it is dealt with without inhibitions..they surpass many more common and well accepted genres of beauty.
