Lost Symbol, Junk Music, Doomsday, etc.

And I'm back with a not-so-dramatic BANG!

I wasn't awarded the Nobel Prize like I previously believed I would be, but that hasn't got me down. No, not one little bit. Various things have claimed my attention.

I've noticed that I have taken a liking to dividing my posts into subheadings. I shall do so here.

1. The Lost Symbol

After a delay of about a week and a half, I finally got to continue reading The Lost Symbol by Dan Brown. The reviews said it s disappointing. I think it's better than the reviews say it is. It's got me hooked, but the only thing I find frustrating about it is he Dan Brown keeps using phrases like "Shocking research being conducted..." and "the Secret Teaching of Ancient Wisdom" for entire chapters without actually telling us what all that really is. I suppose that's the whole point of a thriller : suspense, but I stand by what I say - it gets irritating at a few stretches. Hope to finish it by tomorrow.

2. 2012 Doomsday

We were made to watch a movie 2012 Doomsday in the Audio Visual room of our school yesterday. Incidentally, the movie has not been released yet. A guy in my batch downloaded it off YouTorrent. A friend of mine stated, "the school is indirectly encouraging the use of pirated VCDs." It was loads of fun anyway; my mates and I went for the movie some 20 minutes late and sat right at the front commenting all along without bothering to watch. Good times! =D

3. Junk Music

I don't know what suddenly got us so interested in this, but for the past three days we've been staying back for about 20 mins after school banging the tables with our hands, rulers, pencils and geometry boxes. We've got some really nice rhythms, the last one being a savu koothu. It's the kind of music that's played after someone dies... It's amazing and the drums go craaazy.
We've even got two guys to dance for us... It's going to be recorded tomorrow and posted on Facebook. I'll probably post it on this blog too. We've practiced a lot so I'm reasonably sure it'll come out nicely tomorrow. I've got some neat moves planned out for the dancers. =D

Farewell for now. I hope to continue blogging next week.
