It has been raining off and on out here. And it's wonderful. Sitting at home is the worst thing to do after exams. I have no clue what to do...My painting book also got over and I have nothing to paint now. Nor do I have any books to read. Coz I didn't bother getting any books from duty free coz of my great camel shopping. So was glued to T.V. last night. Surprisingly I didn't know much about Aarushi murder case coz that was the time I was busy with the Rajanigandha show. Later on when I noticed all the commotion created I realised it must be something huge. A day before leaving for India, my parents had to attend a farewell party and the renowned topic of the night was this. It seems too sad. But what's exactly with the case? It still confuses me. It is the mom or the dad that was having an affair? As of now I think the dad is arrested and taken to some place that is obscure.

There are hardly any good movies to watch. I was watching F.R.I.E.N.D.S again and again, the 10th season that is. Too good. That's what I call comedy. Friends reminds me of this article I read in the newspaper yesterday. It was written on the English spoken by British children. They are so bad at spellings..some still get confused while spelling friends, embarrassed, accommodation, relief, etc. Apparently the reason for such a botch is coz of the lack of attention the syllabus gives to grammer and communicative English. And the sudden rise in the application of the e-lang and the sms libi has definitely made it more convenient to make grammatical errors. The usage of 'u' instead of 'you' and 'gr8' instead of 'great' had made written language a lot more unscrupulous. Nay, that's too harsh. Maybe a little daffy, insignificant and obstinate.

I got to see some blog rating at g-man's . So checked mine and got some clean ratings. All my three blogs are rated

gah, well its a bloody screwed up case. and the police has botched it up bigtime.

friends is awesome, probably the best show i've seen, ever...lol at least the children in britain can handle proper conversations in english, which is more than i can say for a lot of people in trivandrum, unfortunately.

lol, you already know what my blog was rated :| so no comments

Yeps.. I knew your blog ratings... I am sure your pretty proud of it. It would be really nice if people here could speak English avoiding grammatical errors. Or atleast be in confident in trying it out. There has been an improvement though. Real small.

g-man said...

proud? naw. indifferent? yea, definitely...

Neha Nair said...

is that an optimistic thing or just the feeling of being different?

g-man said...

naw, indifference is when you just don't care about it

Neha Nair said...

Ya I know. Was asking whether you want people to see you in a different way irrelevant of whether you care or not. I mean you think people would take it positive or ...

g-man said...

o that. i haven't thought about it that way. i just put that rating on there so that people who don't like swear words can know that my blog is likely to be full of them. i don't really care what people think about me or my opinions, and i guess its the same here

Neha Nair said...

That's nice. Your pretty sure about what you want. And I am glad that you don't think it's very cool. Cos I think it's totally uncool.

g-man said...

lol, naw, i don't think its cool. i think its a fact. its just the way i am and it lets me get rid of all my frustration. some people don't like it, so i don't swear around them unless its absolutely necessary. on the whole though, i must confess, i'm pretty incorrigible

Neha Nair said...

Ok, I have no rights to comment..but 'bad language disdain'. There so many other ways to express things than swear.

g-man said...

to each his own...

Neha Nair said...

:) That was just my perspective.

anonymous: Thanks for the appreciation and concern. g-man is a very nice blog friend of mine. I am least bothered of what he writes in my blog provided he doesn't use that language in my blog. Thanks once again.
