You are just an ordinary man in a cape!

Two down, three to go. Yes, papers.
So since Nadal won and Schiavone lost, my exams have .. kinda got ignored. Exam toh hote rehte hain, right? Actually, French Opens bhi hote rehte hain, but let me not see you thinking that. Not that I can 'see' you thinking that, or even see you, for that matter, but whaaa I'm babbling.

So I saw this survey on the net about which superhero people want to be. So I got thinking. I think I want to be Batman. Reasons?

1. He's the only superhero I like; I detest Spiderman, Superman, whatever other funky names there might be.
2. Christian Bale.
3. More substantially, these other losers got these powers and all free mein, luck shine ho gaya. But Christian Bale Batman actually created well, himself. He developed his skills, acquired his machines, he's got the money, you bet, but he's played an active role in being who he is, as opposed to be standing in an entomological museum at the opportune time a spider is going to escape. So I like him.

If I'm something great, I'd like it to be because of me, you know, not because of random shit. Plus, Bale, as opposed to dumb little Brandon Routh and the loser Toby Maguire. But it's going to be Andrew Garfield in the next I heard, that changes things now, doesn't it? ;)

Anyhow, back to studies. Criminal paper tomorrow.

random ramblings

I want to be a lawyer see, and today I found this webpage that just changed my perception.

It makes my to be ilk look like such a class of dunces :P

If you haven't already, do listen to Eric Nicholas; I find his voice and singing quite addictive. His best are My Girlfriend is a Dime, Crazy on You, and Song for my Future Wife.

I watched Gotham Knight yesterday. I found it silly that they named Indian people Russell and Cassandra; what is the point - if just to make the names familiar, then why use the term fakirs anyway?

I used to write limericks when I was a kid, you know. But I just abruptly stopped, for a reason still unidentified. I aim to start writing soon: that and other stuff, although I was never much of a poet. That reminds me of a line in Ashokamitran's book: he said that poetry is the true pursuit of a genius; prose writing is meant for the 'patient persistent persevering drudge whose heart is so shrunken that rejection slips mean nothing to him...' Very interesting thought, isn't it? Yes, I'm writing that here in spite of the fact that this will mean I don't have much genius. ;)
