Hey....

Its Diwali time and I am back home for a whole week! That is avoiding mess food 36 times which is like awesome!!!!!!!

And there's nothing to do.... i mean i have infinite things to do as in study, read up something for future use, learn the guitar... etc etc but there's a time and a mood to do all that, isnt there?

So all i did for three days is nothing.... watched infi soccer.. nice games... manu beating liverpool.... awesome goal by ferdinand... and a very good display by real madrid... they're back... which is good since this means that the spanish league will now be competitive. I dont know why... but i hate any sport which is not competitive and is dominated only by a few...... i hated the time when the aussies dominated cricket... or when schumi, lance armstrong, tiger woods et al. dominated. Its much more entertaining if it is competitive.

And i watched 3 movies till now....one by one

'Don' was a pleasant change. A decent bollywood thriller after a long time... i liked the treatment farhan has given the original... typical bollywood masala filmed in a hollywood style, a good package overall.Three hours of light minded timepass. Worth it.

Then today.. 'Remember the Titans'. Awesome movie. Great power performances by all... i liked the little girl in particular, awesome acting by her. And Denzel Washington too. I really felt for the guy who gets paralyzed... just reminds me how thin the line between a 'positive' and a 'negative' can be. One moment you are having a whale of a time, revelling in your success, and the next moment all can come crashing down. It also underlines the importance of good health in your life... achieve anything you may, you can enjoy it only with good health. Then again, the incident in the movie also teaches about the triumph of mind and will over matter and the never-say-die attitude. So much to be learnt from a movie!

And then the last.. 'The Butterfly Effect'. The best of the lot by far. This movie was a stunner. Simply superb. The effect from chaos theory was very aptly portrayed... how a minor change can have major consequences in a larger system.

'It has been said something as small as the flutter of a butterfly's wing can ultimately cause a typhoon halfway around the world.' - Chaos Theory

The movie also hints at the theory of existence of multiple universes depending upon our decisions, something very well presented by Richard Bach in his book 'One' (i read it long back, gotto read it again now, dont remember much). I had a similar dream once, in which i conceptualized different planets on which I existed in different time frames... in the sense that if I went to the other planet I will meet and older or a younger me... spacetime travel of some sort.. leaving all the complexities aside. Not exactly multiple universes, but time travel and all. The movie made me remember all that.

Anyway... this post is getting nowhere, and i am bored.
Time for another movie.
Adios. Till we meet again........
