Contemplating

One of those days when you sit back and think.

Questions…many

Answers…few

Whats the point…

Haha…no i am not emo

Back home i would talk to suri…

A year back i knew what i wanted to do…get out of India…now that i have done that…have to come up with something new to achieve.

Which makes me wonder…whats the grand finale…more money/more fame/more happiness…where does it end.

Whats the purpose…work…eat…sleep…there has to be something more to it.

Questions…many

Answers…few

Whats with us and our imperfections.

Curiosity…why does everyone want to know everything

Understanding…why is so difficult for people to undertand things

Smile…when did we forget how to smile

Pride…too much of it

Lies…will it ever stop

Bullshit…i am full of it

Hahaha…gotcha.

I am just bored. Seriously its sad to see that we are so stuck in out 3×3 feet of space. Chillax…relax…live, smile…

Peace out.

Living it up in oslo - May week 4

This week has been about TV series.
Hero’s season one ended. Watching in Hi-Def is quite cool.
Lost Season three ended. They have 7 season!!! not cool.
Rome Season two which was also its last season ended. Very cool.

Watch them…

Other than that nothing much…its raining!!! yeah yeah…i know. I will stop complaining.

They was absolutely no partying this week. Not cool.

Markus and me did some photography at Arendalsgate and Sagveien. The place is amazing…i will let the pictures talk

Markus and me switched lenses. So except for the first and last pic the rest are taken with the Canon EF-S 18-55mm f3.5-5.6 II @18/5.6.

18mm is very very cool. I wish canon had a 18/1.8.

Also i have stayed away from B/W…why…just.

Double standards and people in general.
Whats with people who take pictures of others but dont like their own pictures taken. If you are a photographer how can you not enjoy being photographed. If you yourself are so shy, how can you expect your subject to be comfortable with you holding a camera in their face!!!

Whats with people who take utterly bad pictures of themselves(MySpace style) but go crazy when someone else tires to take a picture which most probably be much much better than the silly self portrait !!!

Go figure.

Principles, Ideology and such
Was having a awesome talk with Dan about ideology and such. It seems that nothing can provide a perfect solution. Any logic one comes up with works only within a limited range. There are always things that fall outside this range and cannot be explained by said logic.

It seems that i am a Relativist(wtf)…so i am Objectivist, Romanticist, Relativist. We reached this conclusion after a long discussion at the Friday…as i don’t think there is anything as right and wrong. Its all relative…what you may think is wrong could be perfectly good from someone else’s point of view. Again there are things that fall out of the range of this logic and cannot be accounted for.
