Nothing to name it..

And SO I've finished the Ponniyin Selvan (P.S) Saga! Wowww what a series! :) Simplyyy Amazing. I really wish I was able to read Tamizh as fluently as english so I could read the original. Someday I will really try to read it and take it in one alphabet at a time. The author Kalki Krishnamurthy is GOD! A raconteur beyond comparison! I love the way he portrays his characters especially the real heroes of the book..A witty and mischievous Vandiyadevan, and a sly and clever Azhwarkadiyan Nambi! My life since last September has been revolving around these guys and their doings! And I've loved every word I ever read. I personally think writing a story based out of real characters in history is really difficult, especially if you want the ending of your story to be consistent with reality. (Otherwise you could play around with the ending like Tarantino did in Inglourious Basterds). You have very limited space to let your imagination run in terms of character portrayal and the story line. Yet Kalki Krishnamurthy has done a fannnntastic job in spinning the yarn which is why I think P.S is really great.
Try and read it if you are somebody that likes Raja-Rani stories! :)

With that.. I'm back to fantasy genre.. Farsala trilogy it is! Just started reading it.. Sounds a LOT like Tamora Pierce's Alanna.. Let's see.

And as for the other things in life.. the year's begun well! Thank You Dearest for that. Lots of travel happening...I'm getting to put more 'X's in my USA travelogue and I'm happy about that too. Plenty of reasons to be thankful and plenty more to surrender. More about that when the time's right!

I wonder why there's that streak in me.. rebelliousness. I can't accept somethings and be at peace with it. It goes in cycles.. that of acceptance and rebellion.. acceptance and rebellion. Some how I seem to have a problem somewhere. I'm just not able to accept him entirely. Mebbe its his doing as well.. but whatever. My two ears prop up.. I get defensive.. I charge like an angry bull. Yet when I hear him speak.. I tend to just shut up and think its true. I definitely think hes knowledgable.. his way of simplifying the complexities of life and teach u how to live is fabulous. But stilll... no.. I cant get to that extent of passionate following. I dont have a problem with it..and actually the funny thing is nobody does.. but its just me in my head trying to discern it..WHY? WHY can i not do it? Why can I not see it? I HATEEEE the fact that its soo business like! What do I say.. Pomona has pampered me a LOT. (Mebbe my faiths lie there entirely. And its a natural sense of possessiveness, defensivenes.. watever!) I also know that the things I'm involved in are free.. It doesn't pinch my wallet any more. But still I have that irritation..there's still that itch to find fault with them.. to blame them for making me spend a fortune. I know I can make good use of it. But when I want to.. the rebellion starts off. I hear them talk and Oh God.. my mind goes blank. I'm like I can't take it any more..and I feel like running away from the spot. Yet I agree that it has helped me.. his words have been a boon when I needed it. I diligently did take notes..and well now.. I'm looking forward to tomorrow when I can start off again. But.. there are still those But's.. which I wonder will ever go away. Probably the but's are supposed to remain so. And funnily enough mebbe all my life I am supposed to be following it and actually looking forward to it.. but not be able to admit it. Butttt NOOOOO..

ok seriously Im gonna let this war of thots continue in my head and carry on with other activities of my life!
