DRINK IT Good morning. It’s Friday the fourteenth. Yet another good morning turned to shit by just a few minutes of Skype. Warning, brethren (and sistren). Resist the impulse to login to Skype early in the morning. Avoid people like the plague, particularly ones who claim to love you, until you’re awake and have a decent amount of coffee in ...
What would you do if you had superpowers? Seriously. I was watching this rather interesting film called Chronicle, where three college guys find themselves blesses (or cursed) with increasingly dangerous telekinetic powers. One of them, an abused, weak, kid struggling to cope with a dying mom and a drunk dad, is the film’s…endgame antagonist: he turns to using his powers ...

Love, like all great things in life, demands patience, sacrifice and commitment. Why is my hitherto-unruffled mind turning to thoughts of love? Simple. Being in love is hurting me. The details are…private, but suffice it to say that I am not an adolescent dreaming of a crush. Neither is this one of the ridiculous Sri lankan tele-drama style “Ane, Pawan, ...

GENERALEXAM!ITII! DONE! This post is being written through a haze of chocolate mousse, so ignore any signs of madness, tooth decay or diabetes. I am being serious: the A/Ls are over. Today was the first time I actually set eyes on the so-called “General Knowledge” paper, which as it turns out is actually the “Common General Test” and is more ...
A/Ls: the bane of every Sri Lankan student’s life. Come on, people. They SUCK. Half the time there’s not even relevant to what you want to do, anyway. 3 bloody years spend in school running to and fro till 6 pm between bloody tuition classes for a chance at a crummy campus where all they do is fight and get ...
6.30 AM! Physics class begins at 8.00 [aka 8.30 Sri Lankan time]. I am currently getting ready, or at least getting ready to get ready to go to class. Surprisingly enough, I woke up at 5 AM sharp today – pretty good considering I stayed up all night watching “Warrior”. My A-list for the day: [*] Pay attention in class ...
Is this mike on? Right. Starting from two days back, me and Kalana aka Subzero have resolved to STUDY. Standard talk among all doing A/Ls, but we actually put it into practice by getting together at subzero’s house and doing maths. A girl I know gave me her IT papers from grade 12 [no idea how she gets my number ...
What do teens and stray dogs have in common? They all shop at ODEL. Seriously, guys, girls [and anything else]: having 150 rubber “I’m Homeless” and “Dogs are Cute” bands from your wrist to your elbow isn’t hot; it merely makes you look like an outcast from a rubber tyre factory. AND OTARA SAID UNTO SRI LANKA, “LET STRAYZ BE ...
Every time I go to Wikipedia, they’ve got personal appeals from the founder up top. How many of you actually read it? Please do. Wikipedia is in a near-crisis situation. I know we all use it; hell, why not make sure it stays up? It’s possibly the noblest thing on the Internet, if it it were up to me the ...
Ever gone out to celebrate a friend’s birthday and had a car driven over your foot? That happened to me. And then you spent the next six hours fragging the driver on CounterStrike? Yeah, that happened to me too. ===================================================== OK, time, please, because my head feels weird right now. After being diagnosed with fever, low blood pressure and the ...
Warning: the title has no relation to what I’m gonna talk about. I have no intention of making it all the way to hell in a handbasket. By the time I arrive on the Nether Slopes I expect to be rich, older than 75 years old and prefferably driving a Ferrari. However, when used as a metaphor it describes my ...
This is a post about me. Some time back, there was this kid called Yudhanjaya. Bit chubby. Hell, let’s call me fat and get over it. Said kid was a genius, by exam standards, but a loser socially. He didn’t belong. He never did. He was always the last to be picked for the team. Remember those movies you’ve seen ...
7 login attempts and I’m still not in: the page does not give me an “Incorrect password/email” notification, it just reloads. Every time I click login, it just reloads. This is getting to be a problem. This happens on both accounts that I use -this one AND the 4250games blog login, which leaves me to believe that it cannot possibly ...
Internet connection: An Etisalat, a 3GB monthly thingy registered to my name. It’s the first month. And the amount over my usual bill . . . .Rs 939. Dammit. In the darkness of my room I’ve been reading this figure as 539 and been happily playing Megaten Online without a care in the world. Pow. There go my chances of ...
I love how neat, polite and *utterly gorgeous* Korean girls are. I met these two girls yesterday - a case of a broken PC. The broken PC turned out to be two, but I was impressed with how friendly and outgoing they were. And also by their *ahm* temperature. Iron would have melted. If you take my meaning. :p The ...
Long story short: rainy days are here, and with them, the ANTS. Note the capitals. I tell you, ants wandering peacefully on the ground, heade back to the colony after a hard day’s work, are one thing. ANTS teeming all over your desk and devouring your plate of rice and terrifying your cat are a different thing entirely. So for ...
