It’s somewhere between half passed April and quarter to May. Game of Thrones season 5 got leaked online, and it looks like it’s going way off the course that GRRM planned with the original series. Marvel has been pooping out way too many promos for Age of Ultron, which makes me wonder if there will be anything good left in the movie. These trailers are turning into spoilers, and somewhere deep inside that’s pissing me off. I’m still expectant and super stoked about the movie. I really don’t know why. Netflix aired Daredevil, which is starting to look really promising, although I’m yet to see Matt Murdock really transform into the man without fear. And I’ve finally decided to get out of my unexplained hiatus.
First of all a big shout out to the girl who’s no babe in the woods, listentothebabe. She reminded me that I needed to get back to writing. Thanks a ton! Sometimes motivation comes from the most unexpected people.
These past few months have been very intense where I’ve been dished out sudden unexpected blows in the dark, and equally rewarded with blissful nights bathed in moonlight. It stared with my grandpa passing away and moving on to eternal life. He was a veteran sports scribe with the Indian Express. I thought I’d write about him, but for some reason I just couldn’t bring myself to do it.
I then got a promotion at work. Which was long awaited, quite surprising, and totally rad. It was one of the best birthday gifts that I received. Life finally seems to be easing out and getting under control. I’ve moved to a better office, with a not so awesome view. Uncle Ben took the liberty of adding his 2¢ (With great power…), I’m now overloaded with work, some days are really crazy and some days are like islands in the sun.
I got around to becoming a mild social butterfly. I met a few interesting people and learned a few interesting things. For all my geekiness, I never knew that there was something called a copyleft. Do you know what copyleft is?
I made a few really interesting (flesh and blood, real people) friends. Wow I’ve still got some of my Gomez charm!!! I lost a few friends, something that I’ve still not fully understood or come to terms with. And I made a couple of frenemies. I also had to say farewell to one of my dearest buddies. She flew off to Saigon about two weeks back. (I realized I like the name Saigon more than Ho Chi Minh City.) On the bright side, this gives me a reason to go to Vietnam. I don’t think I would have ever considered visiting Vietnam otherwise.
If you know me then you’ll know that sports and I get along like Batman & The Joker. That being said, I’ve started playing badminton. I’m hilariously awkward at the game and you’ll probably pop a vein, or split your sides, or maybe even both, just watching me play. I kid you not, I look as stupid as all the three stooges put together when I play.
I tried Snapchat and found that it’s a really pointless app. I guess it’s cool if you’re a selfie ninja, or something. I’m not that much of a narcissist. I still use Snapchat though, because some of my friends use it to communicate with me, go figure. 😛
That pretty much sums up all that I’ve been up to. Tell me about your adventures, about all your stories that I’ve missed. I’m really interested and would like to know.
Finally before I go, have you guys seen the new trailer for Star Wars – The Force Awakens? It was so epic, I had geekgasms all day. The ending shot with Solo and Chewie is the bomb.
