A good argument is good fun
I was just reading the 'He says, She says' column that appears in The Hindu. Suderman and Shonali, the 'he' and 'she' behind the scenes share great chemistry. If you don't believe me, read for yourself. Over and above the fact that its written well, I love the theme of the column. Its based on two of my ulti-favourites. Its fun to see everything from a man's point of view for the woman and more so when its an argument. It heats things up a bit and makes it that much more interesting. For the sake of argument and argument alone, I've taken the rotten side of an obvious issue many a time. So much for my love of word battles. Interestingly though, I've never been the debating type. Never taken to the stage to fight it out. I wonder if I would have been any good. Hmm. One of the best ways to kill time would be to discuss silly things with paramount seriousness. It makes for a good laugh later as well. The number of discussions i've had about Sivaji, some of which took dangerously ugly turns, would go to prove how something as trivial as a movie can be a good source of entertainment not just in those three hours you spend at the cinema hall but even long afterwards. The verbal volley is far more interesting than the physical dishum-dishum. A good argument is good fun!

Why men want to marry early
Did you wonder about that too? Its a funny thing to ponder really. A lot of you probably still believe men like to stay single and enjoy the joys of bachelorhood. But trust me, i've come across a lot more men who want to marry younger than older. I didn't say how i came across them, so keep your minds straight. A lot of young girls I know are looking to marry and their parents are particularly concerned about what they'd do if their daughters don't get a groom when they are older! This one tamil actor went out of the way to proclaim that his ambition, note the word, was to marry before 21. You guessed right! It's the very same Dhanush. I heard one-of-'those'-girls-i know argue, quite vehemently, that the reason was they want to make quick money. Shocking as it may seem, it definitely has some merit. Everyone's playing to win some more money. I can totally imagine why marriage would be considered a good move, specially because the pluses don't just stop with the money thats coming in. I bet you know exactly what I mean ;) If men are ashamed to admit it, they try and blame it on their parents. Parent's are always happy to oblige. They've got their own interests too, which fall more into the category of things that the society is less embarassed to talk about. I'm not a hypocrite and I don't blame them at all for being, lets say, curious? But, I totally resent the fact that somehow it resembles a business and a way to make a few quick bucks. Nauseating fact! I bet some of the girls around are no less eager to get married. Blame it on the hormones. Don't you think the fact that pre-marital sex is considered taboo makes getting married look like a good option for those with a sensitive conscience? Well, I'll leave it there hanging. Sayonara
Good things are just round the corner :)
Doesn't that sound good? Course it does! Who doesnt like good things happening to them? Its a wonderful feeling to know that something good is just about to happen. A school kid just about to be handed the class monitor's badge or a woman who knows she's going to get that diamond ring anytime. But sometimes, even if you don't know for sure something good is going to happen to you, you just have to believe it. Life is a lot easier when you look at the greener patches you've been on. If you don't believe good things are to happen to you, they probably never will. Here's a tip. Just try and keep happy with the good things that happen to you. Expecting too much will also put you into brood mode. Did someone say I sound like grandma? Ah, c'mon now. I'm just trying to educate the bloggers from what little I've learnt from my own life.
Blogging has never appealed to me. I think its partly because I never kept diaries. The fact that I hate people knowing what I'm thinking strongly contributes too. 'Why you blogging then?', you ask? Well, I really don't know. What I do know is that I'm a crazy person. Ah right, we were talking about good things weren't we? I'm going back to college very soon and everytime I think about it I find myself smiling. I also have a summer internship, that went fairly well, behind me. Among other things I managed to have some fantanstic dreams ;) Its always good to wake up in good spirits. I hope you fellows are thinking about all the good things that happened to you recently as you read this or I'd be terribly disappointed. Now that I mentioned it, sit back and give it a moment :) Let's celebrate this truly awsome thing thats called life! CHEERS!
