A book knocked the wind out of me!

A book knocked the wind out of me! If you are wondering if someone threw a really heavy book at me, the answer is no. Though the book in question is quite heavy. I have been reading Brandon Sanderson's The Way of Kings from the past several months and the ending of Part Three just knocked the wind out of me. I literally had to close the book and sit quietly with my eyes closed. Even then, my mind reeled for several minutes. I felt sick reading how Kaladin got his slave brand! I can't remember the last time this happened to me while reading a book. After several minutes, I decided that I had to write about this somewhere. And the best place seemed to be my blog on which I had not posted in a couple of years. I had to write about it, I couldn't not write it. So, here we are. More than three hundred pages remain and I am on page 792. Like I said, it is a heavy book. Things are starting to heat up and I eagerly await the Sanderlanche. Among other news, I am happy to share that...

Sad Memories

first of all, belated wishes to all my colleagues- happy doctor`s day! i remembered something yesterday when i was looking at an aquarium.... i was in the 6th standard and very much wanted to have some pet(a dog was my demand) at home, my parents always used to object. on my birthday that year, my maternal uncle, knowing how badly i wanted to keep a pet at home, decided to `present` me with some aquarium fish. the problem was there was no aquarium at home! so i decided to use a large bottle as a temporary haven for these exotic looking fish. a fish bowl was ordered from a nearby pets and aquarium store! to my dismay, the fish started dying one by one, one every day. this happened on 3 successive days and there were only 2 left. i was heartbroken! i could not decipher the reason for the mysterious deaths of my for-some-time-beloved companions! i felt like crying! it was definitely not lack of food, i think i used to feed them excessively(could that be the reason?). it might have been to...

Phoonk

We did not have theory classes today. So after lunch, 6 of us decided to go to ram gopal verma's phoonk. The first half of the movie feels as if it is trying to scare you,only, nothing else. It does succeed at many instances, mainly due to sudden appearances of people coupled with sudden booming sounds. The second half picks up pace and the movie moves forward well. People who have never even heard of black magic may find the whole movie absurd, like a friend of mine did. I believe that, to enjoy such movies, 'suspension of disbelief' is required atleast for the duration of the movie. Some may not require any suspension as they are already believers. Our kichcha sudeep is acting in a bollywood movie for the first time and he does not disappoint. The cute little girl who plays his daughter has played her part well too. The climax is the best part of the movie. Although i did not find the movie as scary as it was touted to be, i did like it. A simple story told well and in a ...
