- Finished reading Eclipse – Stephanie Meyer (For the uninitiated it’s a series of novels- Twilight, New Moon, Eclipse and Breaking Dawn.) Jumped from Twilight to Eclipse, as I couldn’t get hold of New Moon (the sequel to twilight. Eclipse comes after that). Found it good, tho it was irritating in between with all the confusions as to who to love - a werewolf or a vampire. It somehow reminded me of KKHH or any other B-town movie, oh not the werewolf and vampire part, but the confused-about-love part :P In this book the werewolf is considered as the sun and vampire the eclipse, now I thought this book was following a logical order from twilight to Breaking Dawn (that’s the 4th book in the series) then instead of sun, moon should have been the rightful choice rt?

PS: Werewolf is considered as a Sun around which the heroine’s life revolves and so its justified to consider the werewolf the sun. But then again the girl could have been considered as the moon, and the werewolf the earth… (if you had to get the revolving part right scientifically!)…even then we can consider the vampire guy to be the eclipse separating the moon and the earth. Sounds good enough rt? :D

PPS: I do like the book, and I would have called the characters by names itself, but for the fact that everyone might not know the characters.

- The Left seems to be getting nothing Right these days. First it was the election campaigning when they grouped in with a not so desirable element, then they do pathetically in Kerala and the worst in Bengal. Now when I thought it was all over, they still had more in the waiting in Kerala – the Smart City chapter where the Teacon Co head came here, gave a press conference, blamed it all on the Govt and left (must have been really hurt by the Govt’s attitude…sigh). In reply to the same incident we have the CM saying something, and other ministers saying something, but none really making any progress. And then there is the verbal combat between Azhikode and the CM. Damn it, its irritating to open up the newspaper and read about it! Then there is the Lavlin case, where I guess nothing has gone right. And then I almost heard they got something right! They decided not to have a Hartal, but to observe a ‘Black Day’ instead. I was relieved to hear that, but well, it turned out to be almost the same as a Hartal in many places coz of the violent incidents that ensued.
Damn, Left is definitely not going the Right way!

- What’s happening to Aus? They got spanked out of the T20 world cup! And back home, the place is revolting with anti-racism campaigns after the harassment on Indian students? They are trying to get a fair investigation in place, but isn’t acting FAIR racist? :P Jokes apart, hope everything turns out well there. I sincerely hope this was just an isolated incident. Lots of my friends are planning to go to Aus this fall to attend the University there and I hope they won’t have to face any of it.
