Life is (back to) Beautiful

Had a rough day and a half. Came back early yesterday - with eyes hurting - and enthusiasm to edit. Saw a film called 'Rumor has it'. Edited for two hours. Cooked really nice chicken after a long time. Saw 'Liar Liar' with dinner. Slept.

Just got up, and need to go back to editing. Just one thing - I dreamt that I was playing with Baby T, who looked like a three-month old baby (like he was when I last saw him) but was talking. Then I met my mother and realized that I forgot to buy any gifts!!! Yeah, I could have predicted this. Now that the time comes close, my paranoia about forgetting things will be on the rise. I need to take care of a lot - the apartment, buy stuff for a lot of people, pack! And all this has been kept aside for the last week. Also, visiting a few Museums that I haven't seen yet, and a lot of other things with a friend who is transferring to NYC in Fall. This is the last chance we get to spend time in this shitty place - then on, it'll be me visiting her in NYC :)

Oh, btw, the weather is back to not nice. It was so bloody cold yesterday. Right now it's 2 degrees celsius! This is Spring for God's sake!

So, as my last post suggested, I've recently surprised myself with thoughts of mellowing down. I kinda like the idea. Let's see how that goes.

Registration for Fall has begun. Why they want us to register now for a term that is so far away doesn't make any sense to me. Anyway, I haven't registered yet. I've sort of figured out what I want - but need to negotiate some things with my advisor. I'm trying to make as many films as I can, even when we're not supposed to be making films, and at the same time finish my requirements within the next year. I may want to finish my requirements by the end of next Winter, so that I can go for the Spring semester to Croatia! More on that later.

Here's some more Baby T for you. I think I should make this a regular feature - one baby T free with every post!
As some of you know already, this baby bravely jumped off his bed in the middle of the night and fractured his collar bone. It's a minor fracture, and he's doing much better now. His birthday is coming up soon, and he wants all of you to pray/wish/hope, whatever works, that he is able to enjoy his very first birthday party, even with the sling on his arm. Go now, do your thing.

Rumour Has It had a decent idea and Jennifer Aniston, but it wasn't great, was it?

Yeah, the graduate thing was interesting but overall the film wasn't great - i was going to write some details but it wasn't worth it.

Aditya, NJ?? N? J? :-I
