Wyvern

A couple minutes past midnight, listening to some good classics.



Me & Bobby McGee by Janis Joplin is playing. Not a big fan of hers, well... not that I have listened to a lot of her music.

Stuggling to sleep, random thoughts running through my head. Attempting to pick up a book to read, just cant seem to get around to it. I think the last one was just that bad, I’m still annoyed. Or probably just lazy now (which is more like it). Recently bought the book “motorcycle diaries”, loved the movie. Can’t wait to read the book, however, at the same time I just can’t get around to forcing myself to read. Well it has to be leisure, not like I have to study for a test or something.

The simplicity of the song draws me the most.

The book before this was “Shantaram”: just too damn descriptive for me. Though my colleague has the opinion that I should just skip the first hundred pages and move on – as I will not miss anything and that is when the interesting bit starts. Somehow, I don’t think I will ever get around myself to do that. I just need to go through it, especially if I am reading a book for the first time. The only time I’ve skipped ahead is in “the lord of the rings”, it was only in the parts of the Gollum. That too, cause I have seen the movies at the least 3-4 times [I have the extended versions].

The song has changed to Black Velvet by Alannah Myles. I like her voice and the beat in the back.

It’s the same with the movies, I need to watch the whole movie & only then I can walk away. No matter how bad, guess I just need to see how it ends. Sometimes, I know I can predict the end and even though the movie is pathetic, I still need to finish the damn thing. Guess I’m flawed that way, haha.

The lead guitar bits are good.

I don’t think I have seen a really good movie this year. A lot of the movies these days are average, with the over-exaggerated budget in their marketing, which invariably raise our expectations so much that when we finally get around to watching it, we are barely entertained. These days the special effects & CGIs have been given more importance then the script. Funny, I was just reminded of the {classic] movie – 12 Angry Men. No wonder they are called classics. I’m sure every generation has enjoyed this (including mine – Gen Y)

Love Me Two Times by The Doors. Always loved Jim Morrison. A great poet.

Another great movie – The Sting. Then again, it has both Robert Redford & Paul Newman. Hard to go wrong with that mix. Nothing fancy like Oceans 11 (12 or 13 either). Yet powerful acting and witty script.

I think it’s time to hit the bed.... listening to "time of the season" ... DMB live cover... good feeling...
