June 30, 2005 by Surya

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.. Ok, the reason is kinda …

Why do I have a blog?

June 30, 2005 by Surya

I need to answer this here, now. Otherwise I will never remember why I started this. I usually type in little scrap notes all over the place. It doesnt help that I have four different computers ( two at office and two at home) that I use regularly and interchangably. So I have stuff all …

Silent Eloquence: Beauty and Power of words

June 30, 2005 by Surya

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.
