Adios 2011... Ahlain 2012

To me 2011 came and went like a roller coaster. The year was one hell of a joyride which had its UPs and DOWNs, scary moments, not so scary ones and a lot of philosophical life changing decisions. I've had a lot of eye openers this year and like they say too much of knowledge is a dangerous thing, that it is hard to handle all at once.

Kochi Metro derails... :(

Woke up to this big commotion about Kochi Metro in the morning. From what I've heard it looks like, they're scrapping the Metro plan. Reason??I don't know. Its all in Malayalam and it would take me ages to read the article. I would be very grateful if somebody can translate!!! Please.. 

Souce..

Goal Courts...

If you haven't heard of Goal courts in Kuwait, these are those small 7's courts with the floodlights, astro turf and digital time keeping. Its a bit expensive but the football experience is worth every fils. The good part is they are very professional unlike some of the other courts in Kuwait.

And the Dark Knight Rises

The official trailer finally.. This one looks really interesting, with a variety of characters.
Hope its close to the first one. I don't like Christian Bale, but I bet Anne Hathaway will have something to offer.

We made it..

Its videos like this that should make you realize that there is more to life than what revolves around you. Its not materialistic nor fake, its the real deal. The emotions, and the lives of others is worth more than your next car or your next watch. We may not be able to give it all nor are we perfect to all, but its little things you do that can make a difference somewhere out there. If you have missed what happened this year, some of it is shown here.
I like the pic where the father is kneeling after he's lost his son to 9/11.
The deaf girl when she laughs first and then cries after she hears her voice for the first time.. Just beautiful..

At Aranya's...

No amount of coaxing can make me write what happened that night. Its not because I'd have to censor the night's event but rather because what I write would not justify how a simple dinner turned out to be one of those rare moments etched onto my otherwise lately dead memory cells.

It wasn't just the booze. There was much more to it that made the night special and I wish there will be many more such nights and days to cherish.

Cheers,
Amo
