The World Cup Dream

An idea struck me about August last year. I wanted to watch the World Cup finals, it's been a dream of mine to watch the Brazillian team in action on the field.

Well, it so happens that the next World Cup is in Brazil in 2014. And oh how I would love to visit the beautiful South American country. But going alone won't be all that fun. Hopefully I can find some friends who would like to tag along with me.




Saving up the money I need, I am looking forward to watching the beautiful game LIVE. Join me. :)

The Rise and The Fall of the English Bohemoth : Manchester United

What else can be said about a team with such amazing history. The managers, players and drama over the last 50 years has filled the memories of fans of the football club.

Yet, the story so far this season has been somewhat a a fairy tale start with disasters occurring here and there. After yesterday's game against Newcastle which they lost 3-0 and the slip up on New Years against Blackburn it's hard to believe that this was the team that won their last two games in 2011 with 5-0 victories a piece. This is not the same team which beat Arsenal 8-2 either.

Question is, what happened? Manchester City happened. They came, they saw and they conquered the Theater of Dreams. After that, everything changed.

United need to step it up a notch before the game against City this weekend. Or else they're in for a real beating they will never forget.

What United are missing? An influential midfielder: Paul Scholes. The rock solid defensive pairing of Ferdinand and Vidic. The deadly precision of an instinctive striker like Berbatov last season. Edwin Van Der Sar at the goal. And a regular right back.

What United need to do? Sir Alex has to realize that he has to spend in the transfer market this month to boost up the squad. A midfielder and a player to replace Gary Neville at the right back.

On my view about this Sunday's game against City, if United don't do anything quickly, it's going to be City's game to lose.

The Unfinished Adventure

Writing stories has been a passion of mine since high school. Hence I decided to share a short story I had written in my school days that I had used in my public speaking.

I want you all to close your eyes for a few minutes. Don't think about anything, leave the mind blank. Let the mind wonder into a deep abyss, a part of the of the mind you never knew existed.

Now imagine sitting on a seat. Not any ordinary seat. This seat is special. You are on a...(yells "BOOM") You feel a sudden thrust against you as you head upwards at great speeds.You pass out.

You wake up listening to the crackling noises on the radio. "Do you read....Odyssey...Come..In.." You try to reach out for it but it floats away. You come to your senses. Reaching out for the radio you grab it and try replying to the message. 20 minutes go by and no reply.

You decide to put on some gear and head outside. Trying to remember what seems to be fragments of your memory of the past few days. You jump one meter or so at each step unintentionally. Must be the gravity.

You head over to what seemed like a mountain the size of the Rushmore you saw a few months ago.You climb up as high as possible to get a clear view of the entire place. But nothing in the world prepares you for this.

What you see is a huge empty crater the size of an ocean, your ship had crashed on the surface and among the the stars on the sky you see the Earth and a glimmer of the sun right behind it.

There begins your journey of a lifetime, A Space Odyssey.

Now open your eyes slowly.

Life can be what you want it to be if you believe.

The Friend

It was only three months ago that we started really talking to each other. Realizing we had much in common than we expected (LXD Twins). Bullying one another and sharing experiences we had and other secrets, my college life had gotten a whole lot better with her around. Thanks for everything Yoda Sindhu. A friend in need is a friend indeed.

P.S I wrote this since you're my first follower.

Must see movies of 2012

1.The Avengers
2.Batman Dark Night
3.The Hobbit
4.The Amazing Spiderman
5.Skyfall (James Bond)
6.Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy
8.Bourne Legacy
9.Men In Black 3

The Darkest Hour

A movie where the trailer was rather eye catching has lived up to some movie goer's expectations but not entirely the plot we expected. A series of explosions and Russian accents made the movie more fun and a taste of humor  was just needed. A recommended watch for movie goers.
