Time And Tide Wait For None.

Note: The title has nothing to do with the post. Trust me on this.

Architectural Fact: Sansad Bhavan or more famously known as the Parliment Of India. Designed by Sir Edwin Lutyens. It's basically a huge building that is circular and filled with ghazzziillliionns of pillars. Also, Sir Edwin Lutyens designed Delhi.

So, now time for bullshit..

A few days ago, I was in Arakkonam [Vellore District, TN]. I was really bored when I was there. There I was sitting near the road, inside my uncle's shop. I took out a bit of paper and a pen. Drew what was in front of me, keeping in mind the method of drawing using the one point perspective or also known as the single point perspective. This is what I ended up with:

And this is what it really looks like:

It sucks. I know, right?

Lol, get a life, dude.

Today's architectural fact: So, you guys know the city of Chandigarh, right? Yes? Good. Wait, you don't? Man, you're a stupid dickhead! Chandigarh was majorly designed by the world famous, Le Corbusier. He was known for his modern work. He also designed this "Notre Dame du Haut" - it's a church, somewhere in France. It's really different from the "orthodox" designs of the churches we see everywhere. Simply put, it is a modern church.
Oh and you might have thought that I would post a picture of the Notre Dame du Haut? Yes? Lol. Dude, get a life! Google it if you're really that interested. 


There are 3 types of people in life: straight, gay and transgenders. Didn't know? No? Fuck. And we call blondes dumb! Ha ha!


Oh and Poulomi, thanks for the guest post. That was very sweet of you. 


A few months ago, September 2010 to be precise, I wrote this shit in class. 

Thy Hallow Beast

Thy Hallow Beast returnest,

From the Wild.

Thy Hallow Beast in the New

World, Content and Machines.

Thy Hallow Beast spat blood

Globules till the work done.

Thy Hallow Beast is all one.

Thy Hallow Beast shalt rest.

Thy Hallow Beast is near 'is grave.

Thy Hallow Beast is nothing, but you.

Context:

It's about a primitive man who has entered into the New, Modern world and his mind frame towards the people in this New World.

Explanation:

Thy Hallow Beast means a modern man. The primitive man [will be referred to as the Old Man] says that the Beast has returned from the Wild. Wild? For the Old Man, the cities, the buildings are wild and not natural [Line 1,2].

The Old man says that the Beast is in the New World, happy with the machines [Line 3,4].

The Old man thinks that the modern men have come to the point that they will risk their own lives and spit blood to just complete the task given. [Line 5,6]

The Old man says that the Beast lives for himself. [Line 7]

But now, the Beast has to rest. [Line 8]

And the Beast is near his grave because of the exhuastive and life sucking tasks of his life. [Line 9]

The beast is none other than you [The reader]. [Line 10].

I guess you can understand how primitive the Old Man is, from the language he uses.

 [Thanks to Fb notes for keeping this safe].

Fuckk offf!

If you're one of those people who think the world is going to end in 2012, please send me all your stuff

Trust me. 

I was working on the opening line since half an hour. It was supposed to be GRAND. ( Notice the capslock) and it was also supposed to win over every single person reading this.
But, um. I couldn't get one.

So <insert your own grand opening line> 

Yeah, I'm smart like that.


NOW. Time for the introductions?
Hello, I'm Poulomi. ( Yes, I'm that awesome one who's name has been mentioned here TWO TIMES. :D) And, GUESSWHAT?  I'm the Guest Blogger (Sounds so awesome. HA!) for this week at Gaurav's blog. :)


To be honest when Gaurav actually asked me if I'd like to be the Guest Blogger at his blog.. I was already making up excuses in my head to say NO.

Don't get me wrong. It's not because I hate him like anything and want him to die. :P
But, it was because I was scared that he wont like what I write. And, the embarrassment of it was a risk I was not willing to take.
But, as they say.. There is something about Challenges and Hot guys (read : Ian Somerlader) that attract girls. I swear.

So..

I repeated the 'Main apni favourite hoon' dialogue 1453738902 times in my head and finally after trying to distract the topic for 10 minutes said YES.

And, here I am. Blogging away to glory. *grinslikeanidiot*

In this blogpost, I'm going to educate you all about the excuses to give when anyone asks you to 'Guest blog' for them.



So, here goes..

TOP EXCUSES FOR SAYING 'NO' TO GUEST BLOGGING

• I AM DEPRESSED.
• Who are you? *make a I-just-saw-an-ALIEN-face* I seem to have lost my memory since the last two microseconds.
• Manchester United are playing a match tonight.
• I have been dumped.
• I'm having my period. (Even works for guys. SOMETIMES)
• Twitter is addictive. What's the excuse? My tweets are entertaining the world, you idiot!
• I do Blogger racism. GO WORDPRESS!
• Someone just blocked me. For something. I NEED TO DEAL WITH IT!
• I'm busy practising Baba Ramdev's asanas.
• I'm trying to make 'Laziness' a worldwide concern.
• I am not well.
• I wont be well too. For the 20 years to come at least.
• Sshhh. I'm trying to deduce who the Mother and wife of Ted is before he finally does.
• I'm turning into a vampire. SOMEONE GET ME SPARKLES!
• I'm not allowed to blog. Rajnikanth asked me not to.
• My keyboard just died. RIP.
• I am packing my bags to go to Hogwarts.
• I am studying.
• I'm busy preparing for Roadies.
• I FREAKING DONT WANT TO!

So I guess that's the end for now. Don't want to scare Guest bloggers on my first day only. :P

But, here's hoping the excuses work. And, if they don't.. well you know whom to blame. (Read : GAURAV KOTHARI) 


OH AND
All donations, either cheques or cash can be directed towards the Poulomi's Foundation For Extreme Joblessness. :P





ALSO, before I go have a look at this. :P

Isnt she so pretty? :P

Have a nice weekend you all. :)

26 minutes.

Today's architectural fact:
The Fallingwater in the US is a spectacular architectural building. Designed by world renowned acrhitect, Frank Lloyd Wright, the building has been designed such a way that it was built over a waterfall and thus the name.

Looks amazing, right?

So 26 minutes - that's the amount of time I was staring at the screen and thinking "What should my blogpost be about...". And finally, this is the result.

So a few hours ago, I was chatting with this girl Poulomi [she's awesome. Check out her blog. Link]. We were discussing about our height and apparently Complan [a malt based drink] works. And I asked if I could drink Complan and increase my height. She said "You want to be the Eiffel Tower?" or something like that. I said, "It was named after the architect, Gustave Eiffel. So yes, I wanna be Eiffel". :)

But is it really possible that I can create the master-pieces like the ones that have been already designed and built? Will I be able design a building that can inspire awe in us, like the Victoria Memorial or the Sydney Opera House? Only time will say.

For the people who regularly read my blog: you would've probably noticed that I haven't been rude, well, I just want to say 'Fuck you' cuz, this is the way it is.

I tried and tried.

Okay. Blogging is really, really tough for me. I didn't post for the past few days because I didn't know what to post about. So I asked this friend of mine [your name's not coming on my post, bitch xD]. He gave this idea. And I got this picture in my mind. And that picture was really good [it was a naked chick]. It was a great idea to write about [no, not to write. To do xP].

But that picture shall stay in my mind and won't come out as text.

So, I asked myself, what could I possibly write about? Architecture? No. You guys are really wayyy tooo dumb for something this interesting. Science? No. I don't like PCM. So, that's done with. No subjects, I told myself.

I could post about an interesting event that occurred, but hey, get realistic, you're not that jobless to read about it. Next to my head was the "picture" again. Finally I decided, this is it.

It is hard.

I must agree, it is really hard to blog.

When I say 'hard', I mean, really hard to blog. I had started this blog because I thought "Hey, I'm bored and there's tons of things to write about". Now, I have realised that I was really wrong. Kudos to the people who blog, specially to the "pro-bloggers". I mean, writing a hundred words that mean something and the masses like it, that too every fucking time. Kudos, 'pro-bloggers'.

*claps* [No I didn't].

It's just only the bloggers, the coloumnists in news-papers. Kudos to them too. [Have I spelled coloumnist right? xS]

Sometimes they impress me. Sometimes they don't. You might ask why they don't. The answer is, frankly speaking: it makes no sense to me.

So, here's the synopsis: Blogging is hard. You think it's easy, try it.

Tried it? It's hard? Yes? Ha! Fuck you!

Hello.

Hello, yes, you, in front of the screen.

How are you? Not that it matters to me, anyway. I’m Gaurav. I created this blog because I have no other job to do till my University opens. So, yea. I have a twitter account, you know. You can follow me, if you wish to. twitter.com/gauravist

I’m damn bored in life. I have more than two months to go and absolutely nothing to do. NOTHING.

Phrrr.
