i am such a laZy ass... such a laZy laZy ass...
have been procrastinating to blog since forever...
and there are these new tools i discovered which help me being laZy...

like twitter.com and as you can see in the upper portion of this blog that have become laZy there too... but at least i have been updating that with stuff i thought i should have written about... which i should have done here... and i tweeted and then was too laZy to ever comeback here to blog about it... but who comes to this blog anyway???? around 6 ppl in the whole of the universe would be coming back here to check if i have blogged something or not... which is errrr NOT much anyway... compared to the 39 followers i have on twitter... and the over 90 listeners i have on blip.fm... that s the other seXy tool ihave discovered in recent times... it lets you listen to music online.... and you sort of become a RJ and ppl tuned into you will listen to the stuff you choose to blip and vice verca... something about these online things... have this potential to make you sort of feel connected (very unreal though) like a blog... but much more immediate... so its sort of a nice feeling when you get "props" (basically gold stars) for the stuff you have "blipped". and the best part about all this is that the website gets more and more popular using tools like these which have actually NO real value... its just a feel good thing... but yeah you keep doing it because you feel good about it... i think these formats also do good with this "ADHD" generation (which sort of includes me too)... the restless brains which are too restless to blog but can tweet (which has a restriction 0f some 150 characters or something like that)... so make it short and sweet and to the point... and read only stuff that long (or that short) too... so who cares about going in details and drool about stuff like i am doing NOW??? NO1..., well as i said it will be about 6 ppl in this universe... hope am NOT eXaggerating ... to be safe it will be around 5 ppl in this universe who would come and check if i have written something new... there will be more ppl coming in to read if i tell them i have "UPdated" but that s sort of kills the point na????

but anyway, i was thinking i should blog and my friend reminded me that i was blabbering too much and maybe that s because i need to put them on paper and upload them on my blog or something so today i decided that i should finally do it... too much lack of inspiration though... have a book to read... films to see... blog???? anyway, i went to google analytics to see wht s the status with my blogs.... and i was bewildered.... 42 visits... from 30 unique visitors in the last one month (when the last update was also quite sometime back)... that s weird... i doNT really advertise/promote my blog and this number is NOT really tending towards zero... this means that at least around 15-20 ppl have come around here... quite something man... its difficult to understand internet and how it functions and how ppl function in it...

recently i also uploaded my films on www.vimeo.com/ujjwal adn something like 250 ppl have seen the two films (haveNT uploaded my dip film yet) in the past 15 days... that s nice... but NOT one comment on vimeo itself.... a few friends mailed what they thought about it and a few wrote on orkut forums but not much... so i doNT really know how many ppl saw the films actually... as in how many ppl stumbeled into it or ppl who didNT really know me saw it... which is sort of sad... coZ the idea was to throw them on to the world and get the reaction... and it doesNT feel any thing... as in you see the numbers increasing but you doNT really feel it... in a physical screening, once the film ends you feel it man... and that s so nice... and that caNT be replaced... and ppl come up to you and tell you what they thought and so on and so forth...

but anyway, that was not the point... i digress too much... and i procrastinate even more so it doesNT really help... whenever i am NOT procrastinating i am digressing...

but anyway, coming back to the point of this post... which i doNT really know... but yeah i started it with the thought that there has so much that has happened that i wanted to write about but i haveNT.... there s actually so much that s happened in the recent past....

MJ died.... damn sad man... this is the guy whose song (the album was thriller) was the first english song i had ever heard... i didNT get a word of it... but papa had a cassette and i would listen to it and all... and he was always there through out life... he was doing something or the other at every stage of my life... sad that he had such a terrible life... especially after all the CSA allegations and all... huh!!! he had great music though... and he changed it for all of us...

Air France aeroplane crashed... where were all the fucking brilliant satellites these guys have... you can NOW see where your home is or whatever using google earth and all but these guys couldNT locate the bloody plane for four bloody days???? priorites are really screwed i think... but it was really sad seeing parents facing the camera a week later and saying they knew their kids were safe and that they had special training and they could have swimmed and all...

Yemeni Air plane crashed... why didNT anyone notice this one??? it was amaZing in the way it was ignored by the media... why is that Air France was such a headline but Yemeni was NOT??? one girl miraculously survived off this crash... amaZing...

its also amaZing that all these air crashes still get so much more attention than the so many hundreds of deaths happening otherwise... its quite interesting how the media is and what it is doing in the way we are thinking...

article 377 was sort of repealed... finally... a step towards the right direction... it s still a long way to go.. but at least a step is taken... india has finally decriminalised homoseXuality... but same seX marriages are still a problem... but now that this has happened hope is it will go the full way... but i doNT know if it has happened before but interestingly this time around the judiciary has shown the society the way to go... and the way to be... and to accept... which is sort of nice... just hoping that the society also takes it in its stride and accepts it as is...

anyway, i am done for now... i would have written much more about each of these things but its now all long gone... and i just wanted that i at least wrote something on these things than just forget them... hopefully i would now post the stuff which i want to deliberate on NOW...
