So I'm here ... Still here... I procrastinate just like many others... Its just that Twitter and Facebook are now so much easier for me to update things happening in my life.

I would wake up with a crazy dream and would think " I should blog this", but after few hours, I forget what I'm supposed to write. I wanted to write, but I forget .... Every time. So I used my phone instead. Still it didn't help. I should have a notepad with me all the time. How do you manage this ?

SF is cool. Not one weekend passes by with out fun. Sundays are spent sleeping the whole day after the Saturday Night Rave. Oh well, I have started trying new stuff here. Mondays and Thursdays are mostly Oyster nights with friends. Finally I found a place where I can get Porridge and Salted Dry fish, just like the way Mom used to make.

What else ? Well, I got a bunch of Asian friends. Not one week passes by without partying with those "chop-stick" people. Trance has become my preferred music... Temple, Ruby Skye and 1015 Folsom have become my weekend hangouts. Fedora Hats have become my new accessory. You look like a Cuban, some one said.

So much to share, but this is just a public blog. Follow me on Twitter or Facebook, for frequent updates !

yours,
Sil

We had an aquarium at home and we still do ! We had variety of fishes and after a tiring day I would sit beside the Aquarium and watch the Fish swim ! It was such a calming experience. Though we had many dogs as our pets, our fish stayed longer at home than dogs did ! 

And yesterday I found this video and it reminded me of home !!!  But this is a huge aquarium for sure !!!!

 


First of all, I'm not a big fan of Sci-Fi movies. I haven't watched many of the famous Sci-Fi movies. I'm more inclined towards realistic movie making. I can spend hours watching realistic japanese or a bengali movie. However, recently I saw this ad on all the Bus Stops in SF, like "Not for aliens" and such.  I was confused initially and finally found from a Trailer that its just a promo for the upcoming movie "District 9".

And on Sunday , after reading some rave reviews about this movie, I thought, let me check it out. Whenever we hear about Alien movies, you basically can figure out what that movie is going to be and how it will look like. But District 9 destroys all that once you see this movie. 

District 9 starts like a documentary to make sure the viewer understands the story behind it. It then speeds up and finally ends in a very poetic note. It makes you think when the next sequel is gonna be. The movie is funny and to me, the story was realistic. May be this story could happen and talks about a sensitive topic on immigration. 

If you get a chance, watch this movie, you wouldn't be disappointed !!!
