glass house lessons

just when i was having fun reading orcut the system played up and went bust.i was enjoying all the gossip and scandal with glee.woe begone am i.well i guess i shall get my chance later to enjoy vicarious pleasures.we humans are that way so similar.aching to be different yet just the same.i am no different than anybody.i get the same kicks as the next person. i remember a line from an old movie where the hero says in an innimical style 'underneath the clothes we are all naked'.so true.so what does that tell me? i should stop minimising my orcut pleasure.i may find unflattering remarks about myself what then ?well,i shall have to grin and bear it.cio for now.

movie magic

saw the movie chini kum .enjoyed it a great deal.thought tabu was etheral and charming.amithabh was of course outstanding.no wonder then that he is called the badshah of bollywood.the story line though not really unique was uniquely handled by the director. a must movie for avid watchers.another movie i saw was' guess who ' a hollywood production.a romantic comedy with ashton kutcher in the lead.how love wins the battle of wills between two generation forms the better part of the story.

of sense and sensitivity

completed one day of valuation.actually enjoyed it.is not that big a deal.let me tell my students i did not value our college scripts.the thing that struck me about valuation was a feeling of guilt.it is not easy giving a student poor grades.every time i did it i was besieged with a feeling of guilt.i hope i am able to handle the stress of valuation in a better fashion in the coming days.i remember telling my students once in the course of a journalism class that i made a poor professional journalist-i could'nt be professional enough.i guess i am too sensitive when it comes to the plight of others around.girls ,the next time i go on and on about being strong and controlled remind me of my frailities.thats it for now.bye.
