Verbal Diarrhoea

Pain In My Ass(objective & strange as fuck)

2008-06-03T06:05:00.003+05:30

Yeay!! Another month gone & another post!! WTF? Its been like a divine disconnection that I have been experiencing with maintaining blogs. Since the last two weeks, believe it or not, its been like that everytime before I hit the sack, I have this inner discussion spoken outside "Fuck,I gotta post something man, its almost a month since the tagdom came & I know I sucked". So now I kind of feel being kicked in my butt to Get the fuck up & start writing. Oh! Guess what?? I haven't picked up a pen for almost a month as well after exams, the results of which will be declared God knows when. Till then, life's okay with me & so are my parents.

After exams, I was off to Silchar to be with our extended joint family, meet up with my under-age drunk cousins, stern uncles & OTT aunts. And a big 'fuck you' to junk food for the disease called piles that you have bestowed me with & hence being a pain in my arse literally & figuratively !!

Yes, yes, I have got piles & it's not a great feeling when I say so. Actually, my uncle who is a surgeon over there says its called "External Piles"or "Fistula"I would rather stick to "pain in the backside" as it doesn't sound that ghastly!

How do you know you have it? Have a test called Colonoscopy done! And mind you this is the worst part. They fucking shove a 3 metre pipe up your ass to see if there's any damage inside. And perhaps the worser part is getting naked & show-off your flat ass to two beautiful nurses. But that's a skill I have perfected by now!! And my uncle even video records the same for "family viewing". Dude that's gross, isn't it? Pity no one was interested & watched IPL & not my ass & so he preserves it for research purposes. *Sobs* no body wanna watch me get laid by a doc!! I mean who has the tenacity to stand a thin guy like me squealing his fuckin guts out like a pig being roasted for dinner & doctors asking the nurses to "Hold his butt properly or the pipe might snap"

A few doses of medicines, syrups, Isabgol & Phew!! now it's gone. So, huge thanks to the greatest surgeon ever & two middle fingers for the guy who made this pipe!!

btw...It seems that I have learnt a lot about how to control myself & so I am back to junk food again!!

NOT!!

Shit ....Exams!!

2008-04-01T00:24:00.000+05:30

Yaaawwwn, man I am so fucking bored of life these days!! How am I spending my time?? ummm, well, I got exams, bloody exams. Every time I hear exams, I frigging wet my pants. Yesterday was the first paper. I can say I would not flunk this time hopefully. I have not had the time to update this space too. Oh!! thought I would update you with a few happenings with me......like you care!!

I changed my earlier blog URL to this.
I have grown out of the "apodartho" phase of my life, I guess.

After the exams are over, probably I would create another blog on music sharing. Anyone interested to partner me can contact me here in the comments section with their blog address(if any) and/or their e-mail address.

I am thinking of changing the template of this one too. It's too glaring for my eyes. If you got a nice site to recommend, please do so.

One interesting thing about exams is the way the professors give me a strange look & some even go at length about why I should lessen the mop of hair on my head and also trim the goatee.
Yeah!! Fuck You Sir.

In between the exams, I went for the Wipro placements & got it too. So, that means I now have two jobs at hand right now including the IBM one I got earlier. One requires me to shift to Gurgaon and the other to Kolkata. Hmmm....so, me presumes I would choose the land of the communists this time around. If you guys got any inputs, do leave me a note.

After these exams are over and provided I do not flunk, I would be a graduate. Does that mean I can TEACH schoolkids. Wonder what I can teach them??

Getting back to the topic, a constant aberration during exams is the presence of a hot professor guarding the hall. Another source of disturbance is downloaded porn. Hail Bittorrent!!. And then..............nevermind.

*off to watching porn, wetting pants & then studies. FTW!! *

*EDIT: Template changed. Now looking for new designs!!

YOUTH OF THE NATION

2008-02-25T23:11:00.003+05:30

So here's how it is!! A few days ago(or maybe weeks) in an editorial of a newspaper, an editorial came out praising the benevolence & awareness of the Indian youth. The writer went blindly praising the good deeds of our youth that after a few paragraphs, it became quite boring & frankly speaking killed my Sunday morning. "The Indian youth of today is courageous to take out a candle-lit procession in the streets of the Capital. He is good enough to force a CBI enquiry into the suicide of Rizwanur Rahman. Rahul Gandhi is an icon for the young generation as he himself is a young politician". But wait is Rahul not 40? And he is young?? For fuck's sake, give me a break. But what Mr. Educated Born In India, Bought Up Outside doesn't mention/notice or overlooks is the underlying mess that the Indian youth is in. Shocked?

Here are a few pointers:-

1) A group of females molested in Mumbai by, guess who....Young Indians.

2) North-Eastern girls in Delhi are eve-teased & harassed by young North Indians for not conforming to Indian traditions & dress-sense.

3) A rape-a-minute occurs in some rural & urban area of the country & the Indian youth partakes in it.

4) A million people graduate each year. 10% go out in search of greener pastures. 20% get absorbed into government jobs through bribes & passing staged interviews. 30% sit at home hoping to land a government job next year. 15% get jobs in private companies & curse their lives. 25% becomes tomorrow's drug addicts, peddlers, Abu Salems, suicide bombers, ULFA recruits.

5) We, the Indian youth can fight only on paper(read passive processions & rallies), not in action(read active participation in politics).

6) We will strip an Adivasi in the middle of a road of a state capital & shout "Thike hoise tahator logot"(Its good that it happened to you)!!

Oh & did you know that India is perhaps the youngest country in the world. 550 million are in the age group of 18 to 35 years. 55% of India falls under the young brigade. If the facts pointed before are any indication where the Indian youth is headed, then this youth certainly has
gone wild. India is screwed!!

Not Dead

2008-02-08T18:23:00.007+05:30

The last few weeks have been, well, quite normal actually. Hence, the inactivity in this blogspace. How were these days?? Well, my PC crashed...I lost all important data in my C drive, my blog backup went kaput & then yesterday, thinking myself to be The Ultimate Download Pirate bumped onto a torrent claiming itself to be Metallica's Unreleased Album(Demos 2008). Now that was something!! No more second thoughts & I got myself this one after checking the comments section of the torrent which appeared OK to me & twas also a live torrent. But, then what?? After finishing with it. I just checked into the Metallica fan club websites & then everything went awry. What was supposed to be Metallica's Latesht albomb was actually an album by a band called "Eternal Decision" whose vocalist sounded dangerously like Hetfield pre AJFA/MOP era. Here are the songs for you guys. Check 'em out. They are not actually that bad. Actually for those who can't side with Metallica's new sound, this band is actually worth listening. And speaking of Metallica's REAL album release date...well they themselves know. I presume its September 2008[read more .....].I just hope it doesn't turn out to be another 'Chinese Democracy' in the making!

Here are the songs if you want 'em!

Encounter with the communist n00b

2008-01-25T02:36:00.001+05:30

It has become quite common for me to encounter weird personas on Orkut(that is where I roam after all). There are Himass fags, there are people comparing Linkin Pork's record sales to Megadeth's musical abilities & there is the third kind. Let's name that kind the communist nOOb. Why? You ask! Read on the following carefully & get an idea how true the old saying "Little knowledge is worse than no knowledge" stands its ground even to this date. Actually a guy came to my scrapbook a week or so ago thinking me to be a girl(thanks to my display pic) & we started a conversation......I wont make any observations on the stuff he said or I answered....I will let you people have a say & draw a conclusion.

Apodartho Shayan = Me(A.S.)
Saleem = Communist n00b(C.N.)

C.N. - Hi
A.S. - Yo
C.N. - Yaar wer ufrm?
A.S. - m from Guwahati
& u??
C.N. - frm kerala....Guwahati s n orrisa?
A.S. - its in Assam for god's sake
C.N. - oh sorry dear...after all im only a human bin, not a livin encyclopdia.....
anyway how s assam dear?
A.S. - we r doin good actually
how about kerala??

u know what i hv been to Kerala once & gotta say Kovalam beach is fantastic.
C.N. - nxt 2 heaven
A.S. - lol....ya i know

u been to the north east ever??
C.N. - yaar who ruled assam now?
A.S. - Congress under Tarun Gogoi
C.N. - hmmmmm....how s dir govt....s t strng ?{how! dey r only intrstd n
playing groupism...} crrct ?
A.S. - dude every1 plays the same game...

who's perfect??
C.N. - yaar i thin u r wrong....say dem 2 come & learn frm cpm....do u hav any idea
abt communism?
A.S. - yes i do.....& talk about communism...no1 can forget Nandigram....eh??
i wont go into communism v/s socialism v/s liberalism v/s capitalism crap now!!
C.N. - wot dd u know about nandi isuue?
communism s immortal b cze its a scientific truth.....
bfre blme it u shld learn.......
A.S. - wateva man.....i dont care ... i dont give a shitty 2 cent about communism & all
....i know about Nandi issue b'cos nandi issue took place near my home state in
W.B. ..... so ya i know more of it than u do!!
C.N. - wat things r u know dear about nandi ?[uses a smiley]
A.S. - I m talkin 'bout Nandigram, u ignorant mofo!
C.N. - im also
A.S. - Dude u r talkin about CPM, have u ever even heard of Marxism or "Das
Kapital"??
C.N. - das kapital? bhai i never heard a thing with such a name ......i thin its de name
of a food, im i?[uses another smiley]
A.S. - strange...u took 5 days to come up with that..

and that has been it.....a fantastic week of irony & knowing a bit about what communism really is from the greatest communist ever to have walked this earth......haven't heard from him for 3 days. I am waiting for some more precious gems out of that fag.

P.S. :- Do not take it as an insult to communists but you know something's NOT right when people like Saleem claim to know everything from India's geography to political make-up of the country & also comunism history.

Happy Birthday To Me!!

2008-01-12T19:14:00.001+05:30

21 candles !! One MAMMOTH 21 kilo cake!! Semi-nude girls cheering in broken chorus. Happy budday to you! Happy budday dear Shayan! Happy Budday tooo yeewww!!!

So yeah..I just turned 21 on the 10 th & I still do not get the circus behind this HBTY horseshit.

Birthdays are like yet another fucked up, nonsensical & lame attempt at aping Western ideology. Now don't stop reading my shit & start a morcha against me for being anti mushy & anti candyfloss. I mean like Why do I celebrate a day when you realise you are one year older which equals to one year taken out of my life which equals to I will die one year sooner...That is scary.

Gifts I got??

NOTHING...Just 30+ Scrapbook entries & an overloaded mobile inbox.

Oh & the 1st few lines were just imaginary. I laze through my b'day by drowning myself in copious amounts of rum. Would love beer too but at 8 C?? Neah!! Come back home at around 10 pm after gulping down a can of deoderant & of course a meethapaan. You don't wanna get caught on your b'day. Have dinner...yum(maacher jhol & the trappings of a Bengali food chart)....Fire on the mp3 player.....put on some Motorhead, Carcass & Napalm Death. Hell yeah! And then.................ZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzz.

Tag Dhina Dhin

2008-01-12T14:55:00.000+05:30

So like I was going through some blogs & found this shit called Blogrolling. Sounds nice!! So now, I will have a list of blogs which altough I can't make sense of, I put up with. But I still cannot figure out if Blogroll = Tagging = Link Exchange.

But ...uhh nevermind. Here goes my pehla list
Necropolis, Gauri, Dipti, Praneeth, Nothingman, Soul Intoxicated, Wayfaerer.

Will it get me more readers? Will I get me more comments? Will it make me rich? Man, I am such a narcissistic cockmunch. Cheers you fuckers, will be putting in some more blogs later. Till then Fuck The World.

P.S. :- Go to the end of this blog NOW......yes right now........y'all see that big fat green ad?? Click on it right away!! Do it right now & help me earn some easy bucks just by doing nothing!

Your God, Your Lie

2008-01-04T20:06:00.000+05:30

The following lines go out to you know whom & you know why!!
Read on

This end is near,
A new world awaits him
No more tridents or swords for him
He has slaughtered wombs
Under the garb of religion.
That red still stains him
Reminding him of past sins
No matter how much he tries
This red will not be gone
This red is not the meeting of hearts,
This red is the new black.
Saffron was not meant
To turn blood red.
I was fooled by your preaching
But,
You made, your own God
Your own religion
He is your God.
He is a lie.

What New Year??

2008-01-02T14:11:00.000+05:30

So like, it’s that time of the year when all of us dream of a better future, a better life, a bigger house & a fat purse. New resolutions, new promises......eh!!

WAKE UP DAWWG!

HAPPY FUCKING NEW YEAR

It’s really funny when people go like, "Dooood, what's your New Year wish?" I normally go like "Arrey maann, that's a secret". Frankly speaking, I do not have a new year wish as such(yeah, I know it sounds uncool) but that's just me. It's not like; I do not have any wish or regrets as such. C'mon, everyone has regrets. I have laawwts of 'em. But I have learnt to move on with life. And then, you get these pesky idiotic wishes of the politicians & self-styled celebs in newspapers pushing important news to the middle pages.

Headline = French President dating Italian model

Middle Page news = Aftermath of Bhutto's assassination.

Seriously, it’s degrading.

So, I came up with my own New Year wishes, not resolutions...mind you!!

I want me to get a new job, a stable one .

Graduate without any hiccups (which is usually not the case with me).

Reduce my intake of smoke, dope & alcohol.

I want Himass to stop sneezing & wish not to see him in Karz remake dancing...for fuck's sake.

I do not want a naked parade on the streets this year again.

I wish to see India making it to the gold medal tally in this Olympics.

I wish not to see or see less of Britney's bald head, her genitals; Lindsay Lohan & Paris Hilton. Someone go tell 'em that they are rude bitches. Oh & not to forget people back home---Rakhi Sawant, Abh-Ash, Shilpa Shetty, Ekkkta KKKKKapoor.

I seriously hope India kicks some Aussie arse.

Hope Lamb Of God & In Flames tour India.

I just wish mainstream & rest of India stops viewing the North-East as some unholy land inhabited by half-naked & half-baked brained individuals with small eyes, stubbed nose & a predilection for violence.

Have a fucking amazing new year…..Will you drink to that??**Hic**

Guide to metal madness

2007-12-27T10:21:00.000+05:30

Presuming you are a regular reader of this blog, you will pretty much know that I am proud to be loud(a.k.a. metalhead). If you are not one...no problemo...help is at hand. I will give you you a few insights into the hows, whats, dos, donts & the likes of a metalhead. And as usual, I will keep rambling. Pardon me dear reader(main angrejhee malumm umm um)!!!

Starters guide to metal kingdom:-

Grow long hair .

You should have bad breath(okay not that much but atleast somewhere near the Britishers would be just about OK)
Look ugly
If you are wearing jeans now, that is blasphemy! Go out, buy new leather boots, leather pants, leather jackets, leather shirts(maybe even undies) & put implants under your pants so that your crotch looks .... well....appealing to the fairer sex.
You will mostly come across 2 types of metalheads- the glam metalhead & the serious metalhead. If you are glam, you need to put on a lot of make-up & i mean like LLLOTS of as in bucketful of make-up...so much so that it becomes awefully troublesome for people to differentiate you with a Page 3 celeb. If you are the serious type, wear corpse paint or get radium eyeballs(that scares the puke out of a healthy body)
If you do not take pot shots at authority(starting with Bush, America & culminating with Britney would be touchwood)....you are NOT a metalhead.
You must, must, must have a fascinations for things weird & kinky sex.
You have done something good for the society & do not find yourselves being talked about at T.V. shows....you are no doubt a metalhead.
If you do not curse God.....that's blasphemy...you need to be Satan's child to be a metalhead.
The moment Dio replaces Dion in your casette or mp3 or whatever in your player, you know you are a tr00 metalhead.

Oh & I love P.S.:- If you haven't got METAL = BEER = MUSIC........I have got news for you........K.M.A.

Scorpions India Humanity Tour Shillong gig experience

2007-12-21T14:20:00.000+05:30

O.K....so the Scorpions came, saw & stung us in a week. Damn, I had to miss a show for which I had saved money for so long...Fuck, it hurts...anyways, a lot of my friends went to the show. At last I got hold of one of 'em called Tuhin who took the pain of writing this as he says Ramayana of a review of the show...so take it over Tuhin.

***************************************************************************

I cant rememebr well. Maybe it was raining that evening and i had a glass of water in my hand. I dragged myself from the living room to my bedroom.Life was lazy. Feeling bored, i opened my drawer and checked what i had to listen.I had a cassette; it read "S C O R P I O N S". I plugged in my cassette player and loaded the album i was going to hear for the first time. The cassette started with a soothing distorted ballad tune, it was "BELIEVE IN LOVE". Back then i was a 10 year old one it was the blistering winter of 1995 and this album introduced me to what is in true sense called ROCK MUSIC.

For the next 10 years i devoted myself to find more about the band. I collected nearly all of their songs. I listened, hummed,sang,played their songs; i professed this band to anyone who came to me. I only hoped to see them LIVE one day, or the other..............
Blessing came to me in disguise. A fellow, ahem.. my RIGHT HAND MAN attended the MR BiG concert and the following day of his return, he came to me and informed me that there was a news that SCORPIONS might land in SHILLONG somewhere in DECEMBER!!!!!

i waited no longer. I ran to my PC and indulged myself in some heavy GOOGLiNG(man i love INTERNET) and sooon and

sooonnn...... YES!!!!!!!!! YES!!!!!!!!!! its true, SCORPIONS are really coming to SHILLONG.. Woo Hoo Hoo!!!!!

Those painful days from NOVEMBER to DECEMBER... Man!!! time seemed to slip back, DECEMBER seemed to be moving away from me.

After a LooOooUuuuUNg wait, finally its DECEMBER!!!!

I didnt waste a minute and i got the TICKETS as soon as they came over the different outlets. No compromise over SCORPIONS right???, JEANS??? FUCK jeans, i want the DIAMOND TICKET;i burnt all my cash to get that(but i'm still a happy man). I came back home, and lol.. took a few snaps of the ticket and then put the ticket inside an envelope and locked it up safely inside my draw00er.

DAY.. NOON.. EVENING... Night... It continued throughout the first week. Time seemed to be ticking fast. 12th DEc didnt seem far.

__________11th DECEMBER(night)__________
After a hectic day, i laid myself on the bed think what was I to see the next day. I was killed by curiosity. WHAT might happen????

Will i get a drum stick?? or ill snap a pic with KLAUSE??? or maybe RUDOLF will throw the FLYING V at me...???

__________12th DECEMBER______________
Finally the DAY!!!!!! i woke up at 4am, prepared myself at around 6, got on a SUMO i took off to SHILLONG. Packed with some other SCORPIONS buffs, this journey would be hard to forget. Throughout the journey we listened to the CLASSICS, EPICS of SCORPIONS.

At last we reached what is called the ROCK CAPITAL OF INDIA. I was getting late. It was almost 10 am and gates opens at 12. DAMN!!!! i quickly placed my bag, had lunch and rushed to the VENUE. After a long wait, finally i entered the stadium.

IT WAS SIMPLY MAGICAL!!!!!!

The stage, the lights, the AMPs, the sophisticated mixers, the stacked FLYING V's and the EXPLORERS, the COVERED DRUMS... aaahh!!!
felt like heaven!

12pm.... 1pm... 2:13pm 2:47pm..... 3PM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The long wait has finally ended. The announcements were made and the first opening act was of a local HARD ROCK band called

AKHIYA. WOW!! they belted out some really fantastic OCs. They proved that MUSIC indeed has no LANGUAGE,RELIGION. Everyone swayed to their songs.
A fantastic band. THennn came the highly acclaimed band "THE GREAT SOCIETY". They got the people into the mood! LOU MAJAW is a legend!! Despite his aging knees, he was frolicking around the stage like a teen in his half pants of course.Then they were done.

WHO's up next????

yeaaHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

________SCORPIONS LIVE______________

After the set of GREAT SOCIETY, i sat down on the field. I knew its gonna take time, and what we would see after the wait would be simply HEAVENLY!!!

Suddenly...i heard a loud scream from the 40000 maddened fans i quickly got up and saw that --"HUH!! no one's on stage.. why did these people scream so loud???" After that i realised that a guitar technician walked across the stage with the "SIGNATURE BLACK/WHITE V" of RUDOLF SCHENKER. I could feel the intensity. After that a thundering crash came out from the might AMPS and throw the smoke on the stage came out the "S C O R P I O N S",, blazing through their song "Hour 1" from the new album. The crowd was going mad!! simply mad!!!
we all were going mad!! phew.... but hell yea!!!!! As the show proceeded they belted out some of their immortal classics-- ZOO,STILL LOVING YOU, ALWAYS SOMEWHERE, SEND ME AN ANGEL besides their new songs-- HUMANITY,321 etc..There was not a single one who didnt sing to their songs. IMAGINE 40000 fans chorusing.

Then after a while the rest of the band members went for a short break. To fill the stage at that time PAWEL and KOTTAK entertained us with their solos. Their energy was superb!!!!

From a random bass solo to "VOODOO CHILE"'s and "ENTER SANDMAN"'s tune to playing the bass with drum stick, everything was there.It was simply superb. KOTTAK got onto the drums, drank a can of BEER, threw the empty can at the toms and blasted his way throught "BLACKOUT". Now....!! it was time for the peace anthem "WINDS OF CHANGE". We could see the hands of the people swaying to the song. Everyone raised their lighters, candles, matches, cell phones..lol up in the air. The song ended. It was then when KLAUSE screamed out----"WE ARE NOT GOING TO LET YOU GO SHILLONG UNLESS WE ROCK YOU LIKE A HURRICANE"

Sorry... i cant describe the situation. It was something beyond imagination for a HARDCORE SCORPIONS fan like me. The situation was AWEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSUMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!!!

\m/\m/\m/

After that the GREATEST SHOW to be ever held in NE came to an end.... but!! we were not letting them go that easily. Due to immense public demand they performed another number.

I was feeling GREAAATT!!! also a bit disappointed. WHY??? WHY??? Why did it had to end?? Why could it last for long?????

Neways.. the SCORPIONS left the stage and the techie guys took over the stage opening up cables, packing things.

Coming out from the stadium i got into a gruop of people of about 300 and as we were slowly roaming through the literally empty streets of SHILLONG city, we sang the SCORPIONS numbers again. The group slowly split and it was time for me to leave the AMAZING PEOPLE.

I shall always remember this, i saw the SCORPIONS, i felt them, the hospitability of the people there, their spirit and their love for true MUSIC.

I somehow dragged myself to my bed, i fell into a deep dreamless sleep. Dreamless because, the greatest dream in my life,,,... had finally come TRUE!!!!!!!

Blogs From The La La Land

2007-12-15T11:36:00.000+05:30

What's with everyone man? I mean, C'mon give me a break. Every blogger, every damn blogger wants to be a poet. Somebody's soul's intoxicated, someone's death motivated, someone's into disclosures & stuff AND then you have people like me[Thunderous Applause]!! The last category of bloggers are the most worthless, penniles, good for nothing(a.k.a. Apodartho) & at times brilliant creed of bloggers.

You know why I waxed eloquent on the last category. Yes, you've got it coz' that includes ME!! So dear bloggers, cease penning down poems w.e.f. now on. INSTEAD, everyone should be like me!! 24/7 ranting - 12/7 throwing tantrums & 12/7 being of no real good use.

P.S.:- My HEARTBURN(that's the most senti title I could come up with)

This fretful world I live in
This weary swirl of words, I hear it
If I should, hurl away the whole?
The dead-end of my heart, a deep black hole
This empty breath, of love denied
These thoughtless wars in mind
All love hateful, to the eye
There is just too much pressure to cope
Look, here I break the thread of hope

Happy Bitching

Chaos everywhere

2007-12-06T23:30:00.000+05:30

The past couple of weeks were quite.......well....how do I put it......ass-raping for me!! No, no, not 'coz of the exams but the nude show that went on the streets. Never in my whatever short life I have lived did I imagine that I would bear witness to such blatant violation of a woman's modesty. Oh & some guys found it really cool to take her pics & circulate it.(LAME)! Thank God, the police got those 3 assholes......now they are behind bars....but questions remain & they are not easy to answer. Let me see!!!

1) Why weren't there enough policemen to check the rampage by the Adivasis?
2) Why did they only act when the rallyists went periliously close to the Secretariat gates?
3) Even after that, Where were they when locals beat the living daylights out of innocent rallyists including children & women?(the real culprits who started it ran away after doing the damage)
4) Where are the results of the innumerable probes & inquiries & commissions et all?
5) Will granting them quota solve the matter?
6) Has it affected the image of the city & region?
7) Will peace return?

ANSWER TIME

I will try my very best. If you have better ones....do put in a comment.

1) There were supposed to be only 300-400 people attending a meeting in some school ground in the city. But they came in thousands & the police was underprepared for that.

O.K. point taken

2) They love their jobs.
3) Again, they were underprepared.

Point NOT taken...i mean, even after 1 hour has passed, you mean to say there was not any backup? Strange thing. But nevermind....let's move on.

4) TIME baby time!! After all, this is the land of Lahe Lahe !! & we fit in so perfectly here!!
5) NO & I mean a BIG NOOOOO!! If it's done, don't you think other tribes & aboriginals & minorities, etc. would want it too?? Why not provide them quota in schools & institutions??? Let them get the best of education & then let them compete with the best for jobs.
6) Was it any better before?? Everytime & I mean everyfuckintime I say, "Hey me from NE"....i get strange stares & people go like "yaar tu chinki nahin lagta?"(In fact, I have some ridiculously howlarious stuff on that comin up later)
7) Aahh yess!! We are strong. We shall be back. At least I hope so.

AMEN.

Why do I need a title everytime?

2007-12-06T23:23:00.000+05:30

Finally, fucking finally, exams got over. I dunno why but just a day has passed & I start missing exam fever. There's something with exams or something's wrong with me????

Exaaaams...YAAAAAWWWWWNNN!!!

2007-11-25T10:38:00.001+05:30

Facebook = Nonsense Unlimited

2007-11-18T00:00:00.000+05:30

Facebook!!!aahh, another futile attempt at social networking!!!! Take it from me man. I still rue that day...err night my GF asked me to get an a/c on this good for nothing site to, well..."Stay In Touch"[WTF is that supposed to mean???]

Lemme start now. To begin with, it is so graphically loaded(read fucked up) that it takes aeons to start. And when it does, you are inundated with 12,575 notifications to do this, join that, fuck him, bite her, blah blah. Oh, I forgot . The profile page is so garishly designed that you take half a day to figure out the head from the tail.

Ummm ...... remember the notifications I told above. The more you accept these silly apps, the longer your profile page extends - a finger aching exercise to put it mildly.....(its as irritating as Siddhu's retarded jokes).......So the more you try to be friendlier, the more you are fucked!!!! Speaking of the lame behaviour of the jokers at Facebook(FB), they have also incorporated this "handy" tool of reminding you of any message that a friend of yours sends to another person on Facebook. Wonder if FB's filled with wannabe Peeping Toms...eh!!!

Oh & fuck, you can also link the profile of the person you are engaged to in real life in your own profile page. Now, why would a sane person of my age do that huh? WHY??? You never know when you might end up with different bed partners!!!!

So, after 2 months of actually using it(Believe it or not I used it!!! but that was just for my voyeuristic pleasures.....More on that later), I have given up on it altogether. My profile still exists but that's 'coz you can't wholly unsubscribe from FB!!(WTFAAAAKKKK???)

Before leaving you to get back to your own gay world lemme just add that me & the girl who brought me to this "use your fav expletive" piece of crap, have broken up. Sooooo, if you are a smokin hot gal(read Liv Tyler or Gisele Bundchen) & you have HEARD me, just add me on Orkut!!!! Yessssss, Orkut bole toh RAAWWKKSS!!!

SEPULTURA IN SHILLONG

2007-11-02T00:37:00.000+05:30

Now, I haven't been much of a Sepultura fan post-Cavalera era but that doesn't stop any self-respected rocker from watching them

LIVE, especially when you know they are performing around 100kms by the neighbourhood!!!

Who gives a shit about whether the Cavalera brothers are in the present line-up or not??Fuhgetbout Max, Derrick Green is here to

stay & Sepultura will go places with him.

Me & a guy I befriended on Orkut reach the venue after 4 hours of ass-banging journey & find it 2 b totally empty!!! A slight

confusion is actually going on about the timings of the gig....We encounter a guy 4m the Sepu mgt....An excerpt below:-

Me:-Excuse me, sir!
He:-Yeah!!
Me:-Are you from the organising side?
He:-No, I am from Sepultura!!!
Me:-(Surprised)But you aren't in the band, are you?
He:-No(laughs), I am from the Sepultura management, bro! So, where are you from?
We:-Guwahati
He:-So, how's like the publicity been there?
Me:-Almost nil!!
He:-(Shocked)Are you sure?Coz we've been told about huge posters donning each & every place near Shillong
Me:-You've been duped, man!!Publicity in Ghy. has been minuscule. A lot of guys thought we were jokin about the gig here. Its only

in here that u find posters almost everywhere.
The guy with me:-When will the show start?
He:-A lil' confusion is goin here. Its supposed to start at 5:30 but the police wants it to be over by 6:00. We are tryin our best...Let's

see!!
The guy with me:-Let's hope for the best!!
He:-BTW, did the channels publicise it?
Me:-Yes, VH1 did it.
He:-Is it local or its like one VH1 for the whole country?
Me:-No only 1 all over the whole nation.
He:-How many ppl do u think's gonna turn up??
Us:-BLEH!!!
He:-You know what? Thanks for comin man & Fuck those Bastards(points to a few policemen). We won't start before evening(widely

grins)
Me:-Yeah man! Rock On & thanx for comin down here man.
He:-Its always our pleasure man. Stay true bro.

(Parts)

So we are here at the venue. Only 2 of us & around 400 fuckin khakiwallahs. You could sense trouble here, especially after the "mild"

lathicharge during the Eric MArtin show....Anyways, time to get a few puffs.........

At last some action on the stage. Project Blend Limited(local band) have the sweet honour of opening for thrash metal titans

Sepultura......You can just imagine how big this stage can be for an up & coming band & they sure didn't dissapoint the tag of an

opening act. They are doin their soundcheck & playin some random parts. By that time the crowd swells from 2 to an amazing 10!!

After soundcheck we keep waiting & notice some more guys coming in. I notice the Lucid Recess(Ghy band) brothers Amitabh &

Sidharth get in. We say hi & get the best place i.e. the front row against the barricades! Its around 4:45 now & PBL are finally ready

to begin!!PHEW...

Gotta say its an awesome band & is tight as hell. They breeze through their setlist which is almost all OCs (APPLAUSE!!). I

particularly liked "The Last Idol" & a few others which I totally forgot...They also covered L.O.G.'s 'Laid To Rest' & Death's 'Lack Of

Comprehension'......A few locals coined this heady mix of N.W.O.A.H.M. & techinical-prog death metal as "METAL KHASI"....LOL!! They

also introduce their new drummer Jerry(fantastic drummer BTW).

Crowd count now is about 2500 & most of us cant help but wonder & at times loudly murmur about the poor publicity of the

event....Anyways, the crowd that's present totally laps up what PBL has to offer & wants more but the band leaves the stage for the BIG

guys.

A break of around half an haour ensues & Hatebreed's playing at the P.A. system. Its almost 6 pm now & there's no sign of crowd

trouble & the crowd's now touching almost 10,000...Its 6:05 now & almost dark here....The lights are glowing all in their thousand

watt glory(Total Pawnage here)...The Sepu. technicians are checking out the sound & the crowd's growin by the moment. Its

touched almost 17,000 now!! The band finally, comes onto the stage amid maddening roars & claps....Total METCHUL moment

man...I tell you!!! The very satrting riffs of Andreas Kisser starts off a headbanging frenzy & the band makes sure there's no respite.

In fact, the band just raises the bar a few notches higher with every song. The band mostly do a complete revisit of their old-age

days & we just loooove it that way...Crazy moshpits ensues during Refuse/Resist. Dante XXI is also represented during their

set...D'UH(coz Dante XXI is what they are supposed to promote)!!!Their setlist, if I remember well is as follows(in no particular

order):-
Biotech,Beneath the remains ,Territory,Mass hypnosis,Refuse/resist,Troops of doom,Bullet the blue sky ,Sepulnation, Convicted in life & Roots.....

They sign off with 'Roots' & the crowd's repeated chanting of 'ONCE MORE' goes unheard. The band thanks the crowd in random

English & Brazilian & you can make out that they really mean it.....Oh & Derrick does the Nameste to perfection.....

Just hope that the show was a bit longer but 1 hour & 15 mins of crazy headbanging was well worth the pain I took by travelling in rickety Tata Sumos & potholed highways. BTW i also got clicked with Derrick....lol!!!

For a day Shillong became SEPULNATION!!!

THANK YOU Sepultura for stopping by & showing us some tough love!!!!

\m/\m/Sepultura now officially owns yours as well as mine ass\m/\m/

N.B.:- Have been hearing a lot of guys saying that the show registered an attendance of about 2500 people only.....Frankly speakin, you could hardly make out the number of people from the front row, but I surely felt it was more than that!!!

Guiness Record - Feat or Fart???

2007-10-27T22:26:00.000+05:30

Okay, dont just hate me for wat m gonna write abt......a thought jst crossd my mind abt Shillong bagging d record 4 assembling &

organising the largest guitar ensemble in the world.....No doubt abt it being a great achievement for Shillong & the Northeast as a

whole but dont u think der's been somewhat unnecessary hullabaloo abt the same....For those of who dont know wat i m talkin abt

just google it up(i m 2 tired 2 provide links!!)

Returning 2 wat I ws sayin....1730 guitarists strummed their guitars to glory(Knocking on Heaven's Door) on 25th Oct 2007 in J.N.

Stadium in Shillong....Ppl hav gone crazy abt dis achievement. But the thing that concerns me is that the organisers mananged to

assemble 1730 guitarists while the earlier record ws 1721(Kansas City, US, June 3, 2007). As far as I know, ders a higher bar set by d

guys at Guiness abt breakin former records & as much as my limited knowledge goes the bar ws suposd 2 b 1731 guitarists which

means Shillong falls behind by a solitary guitarist. But at d same time....its not a flash in the pan & doesnt at all take away from

Shillong this achievement & its tag as a music nerve-centre of NE India as Shillong also holds d record for d largest drum ensemble

in the world!!!! Lemme just add another word of caution(yes I m a bit pessimistic,lol!)....d final seal of confirmation would be given

Guiness guys in London afta dey hav watched a vid recordin of d same in November!!!! And the most important concern that I

have is dat Shillong's joy could be shortlived as musicians in London r gonna attempt d same on Nov.2 this year!!! Didnt they say

"Records are meant to be broken"??

Some pics from Durga Puja....ENJOY

DAY 5-----Last day

2007-10-22T11:56:00.000+05:30

So, its d last day of d puja. 2nite d idols wll b immersed in d river. So dis day brngs an end 2 all weeks & sometimes even months of preparations. But, then agai, it means enjoyin it 2 d fullest = Some more Beers.....MWUHAHAHAHA......Hic!!! Me & my younger cousin get out at 3 in d evenin & drink ourselves dead till 6pm & then watch d immersion till 10. By that time, we regain composure & head back home.....So another heady day & puja comes 2 an end. 2mrw we get back 2 Silchar.

Okay HKD is where my mom's hometown is!!! I hav some elder cousins here & a bro who is of d same age as of mine...so definitely here's where I wll hav my beer....lolz!!! If Silchar is 1/1o th of Guwahati, then HKD is like 1/6 th of SIL. Its a small town on the highway wid abt 25K ppl consistin of lots & lots & lots & lots of immigrants. It takes around an hr. 2 get der 4m SIL. The roads are well.....okey-dokey.....not great but just travel worthy!!!!We put up in our mashi's(mom's sis) place. Evenin 5pm & I out wid my cousins, have some beers(no hard drinks but only beers), check out d chicks & d pandalswhich in stark contrast are muted in celebrations2 dat of SIL coz floods had wreaked havoc in this district a few weeks ago & most chandas(donations) wereutilised 4 relief works.....So dat ws a nice gesture!!!! Have some pics 4m there too....Wll upload 'em later.

2007-10-19T10:51:00.000+05:30

So, let d proceedings start. I'm still feelin the bumps of last day's travel. Anyways gotta see some pandals. So the family as usual starts with a trip 2 a holy place called Kanchakanti Bari which is on the outskirts of the town. Its a small temple but considered sacred or JAGROTO(holy places where wishes come true). The drive 4 a change was smooth & d scenery was breath-taking. The roads are lined by HUGE trees on both sides. Although d ride ws long bt it wasn'tthat tiresome!! Then we reach another small temple devoted 2 Krishna in a place called Salganga. The place is a hotbed of terrorists, so we r advised by d army 2 leave soon. So we hav 2 scrap our plans 2 go 2 a place I ws lookin 4ward 2 goin------Khaspur......its considered 2 b d ancient seat of Kachari power. But den it ws almost dark & we had 2 leave..

We return 2 d town, luch at Borail View, the kids take 2 d bed while those who still hav energy left joke d ni8 away.

Puja In Silchar:- Day1(The Journey)

2007-10-18T09:46:00.000+05:30

At last I've reached Silchar after 15 hours of back breakin journey. DAMN!! I m still reelin 4m the effect of all the travelling.

Can u believe it?? A journey that should not take more than 8-10 hrs takes a fuckin 17 hrs..What more do u wanna know...huh!!!! Oh yeah!! I came across 21 road accidents(I counted 'em) totallin 19 dead.....Cool na!!!was it disturbing or WAS IT DISTURBING??? I've ne'er seen the roads in such a pathetic state. If u r a midle-aged person or above or even if u have back problems & wish 2 go there. DO NOT TRY!!

Anyways gotta catch some sleep now. Will go 2 some pandals the next day. Till then Happy Puja.

Intro 2!!!!

2007-10-16T21:23:00.000+05:30

My name is Bandito Das(nickname Shayan). My mom says that Bandito is derived from the Hindi (or is it Sanskrit) word 'Vandana' which means "a prayer", & no Bandito doesn't mean a thief as in bandit. My nickname is Shayan which means "dusk" in Bengali.

I was born on the 10th of Jan, 1987 when nothing special happened....lol (apart from me being born as a huge burden to my parents). My father retired from service this year & we have moved to our apartment in Guwahati, Assam.(we used to stay in a rented place before).

I've been staying with my parents in Guwahati for the last 13 or so years. Guwahati is like what you call, a typical westerner's idea of a perfect India with all it's filth, dirt & the works!!!

The old woman I referred to earlier was my grandmother who passed away 3 yrs ago. Now I wont say I had the most beautiful relationship with her but it ws also not on the rocks....lemme remind u. Its jst that when a person leaves u behind u realise her importance in ur wretched life. She's been an inspiration 2 me as well as her 5 sons & 4 daughters. Living a life of utter penury she raised her children who lost their father at an early age. My dad is the eldest bro in the family. After he got a job he started takin up a bit of the load off my granma's shoulder. 4m wat I can recollect she ws a strong person in mind & in body.....its jst that wid age she had 2 go & no medical & no scientific shit cud wake her up then. But I wud say she lead a satisfying life. She saw her children grow up....take up respectable positions in society.....marrying off her daughters.....getting good housewives, & nasty grandchildren.

Intro!!!

2007-10-14T21:43:00.000+05:30

In a quaint little place far away from the hustle-bustle of the modern day jungle an old woman with wrinkled cheeks & creased forehead(which seemed to get more wrinkled with age & wisdom) was walking down that lonely road....the road less taken.......with a little child holding her hands so tight not so much with fear of the world but for the world itself. The old woman would take extreme pain to always remind the child how beautiful & in the same breath how ruthless & unforgiving this world was. The old woman would ask the child to be strong as well as caring & face hardships with utmost courage. One sunny day, the woman left the child behind. She was gone, gone forever.

That little child was me. This is my story, my life & my destiny.
