Colours!!!!

I woke up this morning..(afternoon to be precise)....after a disappointing day/nite yesterday. My xams finished yesterday...which waz the good thing...but soon it things went from bad to worse. By worse i mean the loss of the 'roos against the damn azzuri's. We did not deserve to exit the greatest sports event of our lifetime, the way we did. But during the realization of the events of the day, i deducted the importance of colours in our life. It waz like finding a source of light in a dark tunnel...( i would have emphasised on the physical structure of the tunnel, but in darkness it would be hard to measure physicality)...anyways back to the point of colours and thier importance.

Wikipedia defines colour as " the perception of the frequency (or wavelength) of light, and can be compared to how pitch (or a musical note) is the perception of the frequency or wavelength of sound". Perception is in bold cause in actuality, the colour only exists because you see it and not because the viewed object is radiating the sighted colour and ironically our material possesions around us only exist because of colour.

I am not writing a scientific paper of colours ( just to glorify the previous paragraph)...but yesterday, I actually tried to get a deeper understanding of colours and our relationship to them. I had a belief that the colour of your clothes or possesions actually relates to your mood or personality, but since colour is based on personal perspective, wouldnt it be vice versa..? Some people see the colour black as a dark colour(metaphor for implied evilness...or somethin with negative connotations)...others see it as the special colour. It is the only colour which is not derived from the colour white and only exists as the abscence of white. ( my research might be inadequate...feel free to correct me....criticism signifies the exisitence of an audience...)

Every morning(or later...depending on the situation...could be rarely...but lets consider that as an anomaly) when u leave house, what is the criteria for ur selection of attire? Is it the feel or the look..? is the look dependent on the colour...? why does one select a colour...? It is has been rumoured, that the colour RED can reveal it's different shades depending on the mood.

Anyways, any opinion or criticism would be more than welcome....subject to the colour i am clothed with. Finally, an open question....since moods can be given different colours, what's the colour of spirituality...and the colour of deception....?

'1984' was the year when 'basanti' was the 'rang' for 'vendetta' especially for 'V'

The title says it all...haha...well 4 exams done...2 more and then....anyways i took a break off studies a couple of days back...couldnt see anymore circuits and waveforms...wink wink...so i watched V for Vendetta...and i wouldnt want to spoil it for you by using superlative adjectives...

A brief plot of the movie: The movie is based on a masked freedom fighter using violence to remove the totalitarian government. The movie is based in future london and the cast of hugo weaving and natalie portman is awesome...original screenplay from ' V for Vendetta' by Alan Moore and David Lloyd.

To really relate to the movie...a must read is '1984' by 'George Orwell'....the book has many similarities...as so does our very own 'Rang De Basanti'. by similarities i mean, the government policies of media fabrication as well the theme that the 'people should not be scared of the government, the government should be scared of it's people'.

There is a line in the movie used by 'V' which uses a lot of words in the english dictionary starting with the letter 'V'. It goes as follows:

VoilĂ ! In view, a humble vaudevillian veteran, cast vicariously as both victim and villain by the vicissitudes of fate. This visage, no mere veneer of vanity, is a vestige of the vox populi, now vacant, vanished. However, this valorous visitation of a bygone vexation stands vivified, and has vowed to vanquish these venal and virulent vermin vanguarding vice and vouchsafing the violently vicious and voracious violation of volition. The only verdict is vengeance; a vendetta held as a votive, not in vain, for the value and veracity of such shall one day vindicate the vigilant and the virtuous. Verily, this vichyssoise of verbiage veers most verbose, so let me simply add that it's my very good honor to meet you and you may call me V.

Have a read, watch the movie and decide

Aussie!!! Aussie!!! Aussie!!! Oye!!! Oye!!! Oye!!!

Crazy...chaotic....call it whatever u want...but brisbane waz partying....however unpredictable football(...the name 'soccer' sux's....) is, no one could have fanthomed the outcome of tuesday morning's(AEST) game. Brisbane burst into a party and supporters stormed the city beaming with success.Currently exams and sleep( or the lack of it) are the biggest priorities, but they could wait for this one special night. To be honest, i never expected them to win 3-1 especially after the 1st half....but hey that's aussie spirit for u.

I have gone on rambling abt the game, but i must mention, the aussie's love thier sports...be it rugby or lawn bowling. Every week an average aussie family would go to the nearby stadium to watch footy (AFL or Aussie rules football) and the accompanied kids would find a player to idolize. The magnamity of the support and cheer when the socceroos qualified was overwhelming. I'm still elevated after last nite's experience. I'm not sure if anyone can comprehend my mental aloofness, but u had to be here to experience it.

Go the socceroos....stuff history...joga bonita - my reply 'retroceder algum burro'...Go figure

Aussie!!! Aussie!!! Aussie!!! Oye!!! Oye!!! Oye!!!
