Boys Toys

So I finally decided to splurge on a gift for myself on my 25th birthday. And splurge I did, picking up the Motorazr V3i worth Rs. 12,000. Cool phone, check out the pic below.

Awesome huh, and mine is black. Only problem is that its operation is slightly difficult as the cancel and select keys are opposite to their positions on other phones. But on the whole, a great buy; leaving a great hole in my bank balance.

That didn't stop me from catching up with X-Men:The Last Stand. An ok movie, with lots of special effects of course, but with the passing of some of the key characters, it becomes a little weak. However, they seem to have left the ending open; wonder if they are planning another movie after this.

That's about it.

Chow for now.

Searching for those wasted years

"So understand
Dont waste your time always
Searching for those wasted years
Face up... make your stand
And realise you're living in the golden years"

- "Wasted Years", Iron Maiden


Another birthday come and gone, now I'm 25. No different from when I was 24, except probably that I'm fatter, and now have a job. But it's been a good birthday, and most of my friends remembered it. Even Roshan all the way from Dubai. So maybe we are living in the golden years after all.

Cheers for actually getting to the quarter century (highly unlikely that I'll make it to 50).

Hobbiton or Rivendell

For all those LOTR fans out there you can check out this site. It tells you what your name would translate to, in Elvish or Hobbitish(?). I know that its the same names being used in rotation but its fun to try. The site names are: -

http://www.chriswetherell.com/hobbit/

http://www.chriswetherell.com/elf/

And what am I? Well in the language of the hobbits my name translates to Popo Bulge (well duh!) of Hobbiton. However my elf name is pretty cool, it's Huor Arcamanel. Definitely Rivendell for me.

Chow for now.
