Tata Sky review

The reason I didnt update my blog yesterday is because I was at my cousin tina`s house watching vh1/cartoon network/nick/hbo all day long. The morning was pretty bad and mom REALLY pissed me off by her yelling. Because this time, it was pointless! So, in order to have my revenge, I got out of the house around afternoon without even asking for mom`s permission.

The television watching experience was awesome! I had not seen tv for such a long time at a strech since dunno how many weeks. Because today, I had access to those channels that werent even available to me in pune. Namely vh1. Plus, the possibility of watching all the cartoons in their un- dubbed original english language was totally cool! I always hated dubbed shows and movies...their lips are totally out of sync and the impact then is just not the same. I was watching the movie LOTR the return of the king on HBO late at night in amaingly clear picture. I`ve never seen such clear transmission. It was like watching it from a dvd!

Besides these, there are about 100 other channels, (many of which are regional language cannels) Thats almost all the available channels in india today except for a few out of which only zoom is the one that comes to my mind right now. But zooms already available on dish tv dth network, and hopefully it`ll be on tata sky too. And then there are extras like the movie on demand channel and the sport channel which allows you to view sport coverage from camera of your choice. I admit its a cool feature and tata sky`s heavily advertising it too.

Now the installation costs only 4k and rent per month is 200 rupees so its definately worth a buy!And another set top box and 100 rupees as rent is the expense for adding it to another television in your house. I`m gonna try and pester dad into getting this for our home too. But before I exit, I must mention that installing it will require new cabling in your house because it cant use the older style cable system. so be ready to knock down your wires or just be wary of tripping on that exposed cable.. but look at the brighter side, you have more place to hang your clothes to dry now!

How I`m feeling right now

With a music video!




I cannot take this anymore
I'm saying everything I've said before
All these words they make no sense
I find bliss in ignorance
Less I hear the less you'll say
But you'll find that out anyway

Just like before...

Everything you say to me
Takes me one step closer to the edge
And I'm about to break
I need a little room to breathe
Cause I'm one step closer to the edge
And I'm about to break

I find the answers aren't so clear
Wish I could find a way to disappear
All these thoughts they make no sense
I find bliss in ignorance
Nothing seems to go away
Over and over again

Chorus

Shut up when I'm talking to you
Shut up, shut up, shut up (2x)

I’m about to break!


wanna tell this to mom but cant..hehe..

Hindi poem

To read this, you must have hindi font installed on the pc..
Enjoy.

किसी के इतने पास न जा

के दूर जाना खौफ़ बन जाये

एक कदम पीछे देखने पर

सीधा रास्ता भी खाई नज़र आये


किसी को इतना अपना न बना

कि उसे खोने का डर लगा रहे

इसी डर के बीच एक दिन ऐसा न आये

तु पल पल खुद को ही खोने लगे


किसी के इतने सपने न देख

के काली रात भी रन्गीली लगे

आन्ख खुले तो बर्दाश्त न हो

जब सपना टूट टूट कर बिखरने लगे


किसी को इतना प्यार न कर

के बैठे बैठे आन्ख नम हो जाये

उसे गर मिले एक दर्द

इधर जिन्दगी के दो पल कम हो जाये


किसी के बारे मे इतना न सोच

कि सोच का मतलब ही वो बन जाये

भीड के बीच भी

लगे तन्हाई से जकडे गये


किसी को इतना याद न कर

कि जहा देखो वोही नज़र आये

राह देख देख कर कही ऐसा न हो

जिन्दगी पीछे छूट जाये ...

My immortal



I'm so tired of being here
Suppressed by all my childish fears
And if you have to leave
I wish that you would just leave
'Cause your presence still lingers here
And it won't leave me alone

These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase

When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have
All of me

You used to captivate me
By your resonating life
Now I'm bound by the life you've left behind
Your face it haunts
My once pleasant dreams
Your voice it chased away
All the sanity in me

I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone
But though you're still with me
I've been alone all along

Cry me a River



you were my sun
You were my earth
But you didn't know all the ways I loved you, no
So you took a chance
And made other plans
But I bet you didn't think your thing would come crashing down, no

You don't have to say, what you did,
I already know, I found out from him
Now there's just no chance, for you and me, there'll never be
And don't it make you sad about it

You told me you loved me
Why did you leave me, all alone
Now you tell me you need me
When you call me, on the phone
Girl I refuse, you must have me confused
With some other guy
Your bridges were burned, and now it's your turn
To cry, cry me a river
Cry me a river-er
Cry me a river
Cry me a river-er, yea yea

I know that they say
That somethings are better left unsaid
It wasn't like you only talked to him and you know it
(Don't act like you don't know it)
All of these things people told me
Keep messing with my head
(Messing with my head)
You should've picked honesty
Then you may not have blown it
(Yea..)

You don't have to say, what you did,
(Don't have to say, what you did)
I already know, I found out from him
(I already know, uh)
Now there's just no chance, for you and me, there'll never be
(No chance, you and me)
And don't it make you sad about it

You told me you loved me
Why did you leave me, all alone
(All alone)
Now you tell me you need me
When you call me, on the phone
(When you call me on the phone)
Girl I refuse, you must have me confused
With some other guy
(I'm not like them baby)
Your bridges were burned, and now it's your turn
(It's your turn)
To cry, cry me a river
(Go on and just)
Cry me a river-er
(Go on and just)
Cry me a river
(Baby go on and just)
Cry me a river-er, yea yea

Oh
(Oh)
The damage is done
So I guess I be leaving
Oh
(Oh)
The damage is done
So I guess I be leaving
Oh
(Oh)
The damage is done
So I guess I be leaving
Oh
(Oh)
The damage is done
So I guess I be... leaving

You don't have to say, what you did,
(Don't have to say, what you did)
I already know, I found out from him
(I already know, uh)
Now there's just no chance, for you and me, there'll never be
(No chance, you and me)
And don't it make you sad about it

Cry me a river
(Go on and just)
Cry me a river-er
(Baby go on and just)
Cry me a river
(You can go on and just)
Cry me a river-er, yea yea

Cry me a river
(Baby go on and just)
Cry me a river-er
(Go on and just)
Cry me a river
(Cause I've already cried)
Cry me a river-er, yea yea
(Ain't gonna cry no more, yea-yea)

Cry me a river
Cry me a river, oh
Cry me a river, oh
Cry me a river, oh

Cry me a river, oh
(Cry me, cry me)
Cry me a river, oh
(Cry me, cry me)
Cry me a river, oh
(Cry me, cry me)
Cry me a river, oh
(Cry me, cry me)

Cry me a river, oh
(Cry me, cry me)
Cry me a river, oh
(Cry me, cry me)
Cry me a river
(Cry me, cry me
