Rape of the lock

Or should I say locks.... that's what I feel every time I go to a salon and snip the ends of my hair. I try hard to grow my hair and keep it to a certain length (long actually!!) but after a certain point it starts to feel heavy on my head. Like a weird gravitational pull. Leaving me with a heavy head and a clouded mind. I try not to think of it and carry on until I cant bear it any longer; and then I go to the salon and chop it off to a "style" that will make me look good... for perhaps a day or two and then somehow, strangely enough I go back to looking the same.. with just a little load off my head. Most of us (i.e. me and some of my friends) project our anger on our hair, cut it off when we are particularly angry with ourselves or something around us. The load that gets of my head the day I get a haircut is like a thrill, not just relaxing my heavy head but also my heavy mind. The length does not really matter. Its about the relief!! A rejuvenated self, like a snake shedding off its skin. I cant remember the first time i actually tried it and was happy, but i sure do know it works well for me. Tough I get a haircut only once or maybe twice in a year I feel the pressure off my head, and a guilt for chopping it off. More so because my mom disapproves the idea of a haircut. But its just one of the things that I do, without really wanting to do so. And my hair becomes the relenting victim to my abuse.

A sparrow, a pearl, a journey.....to the end

At world's end........ there it was.. and i was watching it on the first day.... yeahie !! I was as thrilled as that. A friend had warned me..... he had watched it and had not liked it..... but common... it's the pirates... forget anything i was going to watch it for Jack Sparrow. oh! is he good or is he good..... I could not help but to fall in love with him.... all over again...[like it was not enough for the fist two series]. It's sheer pleasure to watch Depp as Jack. The movie starts, and i'm waiting, and waiting, and waiting..... and after what seems like an endless wait packed with some action scenes; I am rewarded.... with one, two, three, four,five........ and many more jacks' hehehe ... ya.... that many..... oh! what a riot. what more.. you get to see some cool tattoos and some flesh too baby...[;)] and some seriously funny Jack.... he's so quirky, and lovable. and ah! his timing........ ( i'm sorry, i can just go on and on) and the rest as...

Cease...FIRE!!

The heart burn with the fury of things lost the moments and time we spent in the past i lost myself in you and your art, only to be reminded that you were far apart. it was for keeps and so we thought.. we were meant to be. For you were my life, my soul, my existence, my love... Well you were from thoughts of the past.
