Indianapolis canal and cornfields at the temple...I had a near perfect day today...only thing I missed was having cute soulmate around holding my hands..
After weeks and weeks of volunteering and getting involved in organizing picnic this and that, I finally had a day..a whole day for myself..
A near perfect day..
A beautiful spiritual morning at the temple, then a nice indian homely lunch at the temple, then shopping with a girlfriend and buying lots of indian movies and spicy grocery, then watching this movie "Jaane tum Jaane ne" which I wanted to watch for sometime, then biking around the canal which I was wanting to do for sometime, biking so refreshing for body and soul, biking watching canal waters dance to setting sun, then sitting under sunny skies with a caramel macchiono at starbucks and reading Salman Rushdies "Enchantress"...
near perfect day..
I just wished a cute guy was there with me and I could put my arms around his shoulder and chat chat chat about books..that would have made this day perfect..
hopefully someday..
what else..
tomorrow whole day from 9am to 3pm I will be busy running a bone marrow drive for south asians..so sunday is gone in volunteering as usual..
Books Iam reading right now..
Salman Rushdies " Enchantress"..not as good as other Rushdies novels..first 100 pages were history lecture with no magical realism..finally middle 100 pages , u can feel Rushdies unique characters and magical realism and Rushdies signature which makes me happy but still the novel is not that great..characters just float in history lessons..there is no sequence , story has so many breaks, it gets confusing..I admit though characters are unique as usual typical Rushdies style and very interesting..on the whole I have to read every Rushdies novel so I am going to finish it gracefully..
Iam also reading
Harikunzrus " My revolutions". I like his novels. Iam glad there is a next generation of writers like kunzru, zadie smith who can replace naipaul and rushdie..I like his my revolutions better than transmission and not as good as his first novel the impressionist..on the whole another good novel from this writer..he is consistanly good, comes up with unique stories with little romance..and I love that..I like manly novels with little romance..
saw movie Jaane tu na Janee..it was ok..not great..Aamirkhan produced it, it is good like timepass romance movie but nothing unique or great..If u watched telugu movie "Nuvve kavali" which is about 2 best friends who fight all the time and dont realise they love each other , u wont like Jaane tu na tu Janee..nuvve kavali is so so better..so aamir did not come with a novel story..admitted... Genelia and Irfan khan or Imran khan are ok..but Genelia did not look that great in this movie..she acted better and was more natural in telugu movies, she seems inhibited in this movie..but ok time pass cute movie...not memorable like quayamat se quayamat thak or maine pyar kiya or kaho na pyar hi..all these three movies are movies I want to watch with the man I fall in love with just for cute puppy romance..but definetely not jaane tu..
Understanding love is hard, recognising love is hard too..Iam a fool too that way..I dont know what true love is as yet..I hope I can recognise love when he comes to me or I hope he guy realises he is in love with me and makes me realise that...falling in love is hard..And finding true love is even harder I think..I pray I find my true love or recognise my true love soon..
what else..
Indian blasts made me very sad..I prayed for India and US safety too at the temple..I hope people stop fighting and make it a safe place for little kids..
Obama 200,000 crowd and speech in Germany impressed me..the man has charisma and he is moving the world too..good for him..
what else..
bone marrow drive tomorrow..busy weekend..
nite is still young..so hope to read, write, do crosswords..
