Presenting to you ASAD!

What is the most oft spoken language, least understood language, most studied language (no proof though), oldest language and wonder filled language? Thinking of Chinese, Arabic, Greek or Hindi? Think again, it's Music.

Music has no barriers, that's why we listen to Michael Jackson's songs and tap our feet in applause. Like so many people in the world, I am one of the avid music listeners and would want to share with my fellow friends (i.e. who ever visit my blog regularly) a song a day that they can listen to all day long and still want to listen to it! And I named, yes-you guessed it right, A Song A Day.

As today's song, I present to you KT Tunstall's Suddenly I see from her Eye to the Telescope album.

Listen to this song till I come up with another of my favourites! ;)

So, what's with me?

I started blogging a couple of years ago, when it was in its (not so) nascent stage, but discontinued the habit owing partly to the creative vacuum that has filled me and partly to the more interesting ventures that I have dived into, not the least is my passion of following startups and latest technological advances! Oh yeah, it yielded to my recent tech blog. Follow this link to reach it!

Off-late my friends kept asking me - "what's keeping you busy these days, huh?". So, I tried to answer that question as properly as possible. Here's one more go! Well, one of the main reasons is my vigorous training schedule to crack the GMAT, which is on 29th September. Understandably and to my frustration, it is not heading towards the right direction. One other thing is my increased passion towards playing tennis and squash. Though I made little headway in learning these games, these are the best sports in the sporting history, apart from boxing of course, to relieve some of the work and GMAT stress! ;) So, why this solitary behaviour? This is something that I cannot explain for the obvious reason being, I myself don't know! :)

But, from now on, I have resolved to take some time off from my busy life style to post what's happening in and around my personal life on a regular basis! To add to my determination, Srikanth has added my blog to his links list which in itself is a huge motivating factor for any aspiring blogger! I try not to let him down and repay the faith he has reposed on my blogging abilities! :D

Yet another video content viewer

Hey folks,

Here's the review of yet another video content viewer on web2.0 isofa.tv! Best part is, you could just search for your genre and a list of videos keep playing till you get tired. With a very easy to use interface and the tag BETA around it, it can only head one way - even better service. Right now, it has nive video collection, though of limited quality, let's hope it gets better day by day!

Enjoy the videos!

I always wanted to tell you...

I always wanted to tell you...

How much I love you!

But, never had I, the courage

When I was with you!


I wanted to tell you…

When we went to the movie,

When we danced to the tunes of Bryan Adams,

When we took a solitary walk with our hands clasped,

When you cried your eyes out when I am leaving,

How much I like you!


I wanted to tell you…

When I saw the brightness in your eyes,

When I saw the blush in your cheeks,

When I saw the broad smile on your face,

When I felt your hand on mine,

How much I love you!


I wanted to tell you…

When we spent hours together without having to speak a word,

When we spent days without worry or sorrow

When we spent years together as if we never have to part

When we enjoyed each others company

How much I care for you!


I wanted to tell you…

When I knew I can no longer be with you…

When I knew you can never be mine again…

When I knew I threw my final opportunity away…

When I knew I can never tell you again…

How much you mean to me!


I always wanted to tell you...

How much I love you!

But, never had I, the courage

When I was with you!

Dethroning season!

Well, this year looks like more of causing tremors under the seats of reigning champions. First it's for Australian Cricket Team who have been largely untroubled by any other Cricket team lost a Test match comprehensively by India, and then it's Rafa being comprehensively beaten by display of sheer power and skill by Tsonga and now, Roger Federer takes the heat.

Considering the case of Australia, they have dominated the last decade or so not only in the Test Matches but in all forms of cricket. Four year back, India showed lot of heart by drawing a series in Australia. Now, they have built on that platform to rock back the Australians this year again by beating them in Perth, supposedly Australia's happy hunting ground! Though it is too early, we can say that Indians are turning the tables very fast to become one of the best test teams in the world usurping the number one position from hands of Australia in their own DEN!

Not far away from the cricketing action where dethroning ceremony has started, its waves have passed on to Melbourne where Australian Open is being held. Initially, it is Tipsarevic who gave a slight shudder to Federer who is lucky to have come safe after that match, couldn't find his form in the just finished semi finals and lost it in straight sets. Novak Djokovic has always believed and preached the whole preceding week that Federer is beatable and has proved it himself. In a display of brute skill and power, he outplayed Federer in all the sets and has given himself a very good chance of winning a grand slam!

No one has given, Tsonga any chance of winning against Nadal in an Australian Open semi finals. But, as it is dethroning season, Tsonga came up with a performance that none can match to upset Nadal to set up a title clash with Djokovic. It's been so long since either Federer or Nadal hasn't been in the finals of a Grand Slam, that I dont recall a scenario happening after Federer won his first grand slam! But it's time for the monarchs and champions to be brought down and this season proves just the same. Wait for the finals of Australian Open to see whether Tsonga continues his prime form to bring up an yet another upset win to win his first Grand Slam title and let the time tell whether Indians can pull off an another victory over Australia at Adelaide to level the series!
