007

I've always enjoyed Bond movies and atleast 5 of them are in my all time fav. movies. I too, just like everyone else, find all the exciting adventure, gadgets, and stunts amazing. Lets not leave out the sexy Bond girls :-)

I saw Casino Royale a couple of weeks ago. What i thought about the movie as a whole?? I really liked it. It wasn't like any of the previous Bond movies made till now, but different in a new entertaining way. I did not care who the bond was, Daniel Craig carried this Bond role really well. And even Pierce Brosnon might have done the same, say given the opportunity. I know a lots of people who are disappointed by the movie. Some say they didn't like the movie(story), too talkative for a Bond flick, while others whine about the new bond, and still cant get over Brosnon. Well, this is not the first time that has happened to Bond. We all grow, including the actor playing Bond.

When Roger More's first movie came out , Bond fans, or should i say, Sean "Bond" Connery fans felt the same way as they feel today. They still had Connery in their mind and were not willing to let him go as Bond. As time went by, and More proved his acting skills and that brit charm(lol) of his, everyone accepted him. Same way, they will adapt to Daniel Craig by the time his 3rd movie hits the box office.

I think the movie was awesome and portrays early life of Bond. And, that's the reason for him being so restless, angry, tough, careless, and mostly, inexperienced. Inexperienced, in the sense, like not as smooth and sleek like the Bond we are use to seeing. But i think he will get there in his next movie or the one after that. Can you believe it, he even falls in love this time! I couldn't imagine Bond resigning from the agency for a woman, a bloody woman(just kiddin ladies), and then wanna marry and live happily ever after with her. Thank god he got betrayed and learned it the hard way.LOL. Never trust a woman completely, they all poses that special power(VAGINA POWER). Talking to Mr. White, he even says "the bitch is dead", which i thought was kool. All women reading this, I Love You'll, so no offense plz. And i guess, that's how he goes on to becomes a playa.

The first chase scene in the movie was superb, i mean all the stunts performed were just mind blowing. I enjoyed the small chat between Bond and Vesper that they had in the train. It was a clever, funny and a sexy scene of them connecting. He also came so close to dying 2 or 3 times. He always carries that risk, but in this he was literally close to death..Getting that special torture treatment..oouuchhh..that was just offlimits man....which made it even more exciting.

It got a little boring after the first half, i almost felt the movie was about to end 2 to 3 times and things would twist. But all the action at the end made it up for that lag. And the best part was yet to come. At the end, right before the credits, for the first time during the movie he tells Mr. White, "The names Bond, James Bond."

A Lot of Shit

My friend recently questioned me about what i did and just for fun, i replied, i handled a lot of shit. He replied askin me how i handled a lot of shit when i couldnt handle myself when we were together.. If you have read my earlier post, you might know a little about my recent past years, which have been really wild n crazy and i've done some (actually a lot of out of control) things that i never imagined i would do. It has been one hell of a roller coaster ride i wont forget.

Also, ever since i came to India, i have been hearing a lot about Yog and Pranayams. I am a religious person, but even more of a spiritual one to believe in these kind of things. I also know some people who regularly practice them and have recommended me to learn and start doing them. Its not that i have any serious health issues, but i've been very very health conscious lately. I watch what i eat and drink, and exercise twice during the day. After reading a little bit about and seeing the benefits of it, i've decided to give it a try. Lets see how it helps and if i can regularly follow it.

Another friend, bought to my attention that i hadnt mentioned anything about my school life in GSPS(ooty) and the friends i had there. Not that i have forgotten anything, but would have made my blog really long, and instead i would've published my auto-biography:-)

I cant figure out whether it was a taunt or he really wanted to know how i still felt. Well whatever it is, i am really hyped to write about it now. In my freshman year, i wrote an essay on the GSPS incident for a english course, and i got an A for it. The professor made me read the paper out loud to the whole class. The next blog will be dedicated to all my GSPS buddies, my then best friend Amit, and all the wonderful and sad memories i have of there, the best damn school in the whole wide World.

Fresh Start

I think of myself as a very poor writer and have never really thought i would be writing a blog. The reason for me writing is to improve my writing style and as i write i can get everyones feedback on my style. I am not well with grammar and don't know too many fancy words i could use in sentences, unless i have a online or MS Words Thesaurus open in another window. And whenever i do write, i think a lot before writing a sentence, if i complete a sentence i go back and edit it, make changes to it, think how it would sound, if this sentence should be put differently. In short, i take a long time to write. Even in college, i would take 3-4 hrs just to complete 1 paper. Is this normal or am i too conscious? Even as i am writing this i have add/deleted and taken up almost 10 mins to just finish this much. Whatever may the case be, I would really like to get some suggestions on how i could improve. So, thanks.
I have been thinking about writing and creating a blog for a while, but don't exactly know what i should be writing about. I don't even know what blogs are. But i have decided i would write about my opinion on current issues, sports, past, philosophy, etc. whatever comes in mind. Well let me tell you a little about myself first. I chose this specific title as it's literary a new start for me in life.

I just completed my undergraduate studies in Marketing and International Business and am currently getting involved our family owned businesses. Having completed my studies in the States, i never gave a fcuk about settling down there for the rest of my life. I had always wanted to come back and do something in or for India. Although my parents wanted me to work there, get a green card, and eventually, a dual citizenship. My parents asked me to get some experience for a year and then come back to India, if not for dual. Well, I didn't see a point in wasting a year working for a company where i would go 325 days and learn nothing but be just following orders and then quitting even before i am eligible for a raise and able to learn something meaningfull about the business. I didn't mind getting a job, but i wanted to work for a MNC, and that too more than a year to get to the right position. Anyways, a very life changing incident occurred during my last semester, and i did loose almost close to a year due to that, and those who know me are aware of how harsh the last year has been for me.

During my college years, all i did was hang out with friends, partied, drank and drink even more. My first 3 yrs, i studied hard and enjoyed at the same time, but my last 2, things really fell apart(i was into a lot of shit) and even started taking studies for granted by then. But past is past and that was COLLEGE to me(good ol' time, the best). I know those years won't be coming back. Will they? So, why give a damn about it! Besides school, i learnt of other things in life during those years. I regret some of my actions i have taken in the past and opportunities that i've missed, but not all the experience i got of being there, meeting new ppl., learning new things constantly, and all the time i spent with the people whose company i enjoyed. I met some wonderful people during those years and would say they were by far my best 5 yrs till now, which taught me a lot. Be it about Life, Different People and their behaviour(mean and nice), Staying away from home, and mostly about Sex & Relationship(s).LOL... By the end of 5th year, that specific chapter of my life was about to end. Though, leaving me clueless about the future, a new one was about to unfold.
