Almost 8 months gone. Really sorry for not keeping in touch. It happens you know, the gaps increase between your posts, and you loose touch of that whole discipline that you work hard for months to achieve. But what the hell I'm back. And I'm here to stay!<br />
<br />
It's the same old with me, how are y'all doing? <br />
<br />
Okay, some interesting pictures from last Saturday's X fighters Jam at Galle Face Green!<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">The atmosphere was just breath taking. The crowd was superb. The noise, the whistles the applause made it a good spectacle. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I'm a big big motorbike fan. I love to watch stunts and do all sorts of crazy things! I was properly broke. I couldn't even dream of affording a 500 Rupee ticket. I got a 100 rupee ticket, showed a sad face to the cops, got inside the 500 rupee stand, and somehow crawled my way onto the media tower. And here is what happened next!</div><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">The first few jumps were quite boring. Just jumping over empty space. </div><br />

The lads had put up quite a grand exhibition open for the public right up till the 12th and was extended to the 15th on request. It happened at the light house premises in Fort, Colombo. I had the chance of visiting it with my university friends. Here is a glimpse of what was going on.<br />
<br />
The light house premises was closed to the public for many years and was open recently. I had never been there all my life and was really excited to visit the place.<br />
<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">This was the big entrance that led to the grand exhibition.</div><br />
<br />
We visited the exhibition on the 15th, the last day. That evening the Navy did a show with speed boats and it was quite stunning.<br />
<br />

This time it was to help out with missions team I work with from Church. We have been helping widows and kids who have been affected by the war now for a little more than two years. It has been a blessing working with the team. </div><div><br />
</div><div>I went up there last Saturday to help with the the Christmas Program we are organizing for the kids there.</div><div><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_XjBDAT_dJ0k/TQTgYBVtDEI/AAAAAAAAA_k/ZQIQdV9of0Q/s1600/IMGP2085.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="291" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_XjBDAT_dJ0k/TQTgYBVtDEI/AAAAAAAAA_k/ZQIQdV9of0Q/s400/IMGP2085.JPG" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Batticaloa took a different shape this time. It had been raining really heavily and it had made the lagoon overflow. The atmosphere was filled with silence. It was very different from the Batticaloa I visited before.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">We were on our way to a School in Vavuna Theevu which is towards the A5 from the Batticaloa town. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">This man who was transporting grass was having a hard time getting across to the town. The lagoon was making waves and they were sweeping across the road. Looked beautiful, but was not that great for the people who took the road.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div>The smiles we were able to bring in to these people's lives give this awesome feeling of happiness and fullness. It just can not be explained. Once you put your hands in to it, you won't feel like taking em out :) Looking forward to do more work in the years to come. (This picture was taken by Kalu Kella)</div><div><br />
</div>On a different note, I have been neglecting this blog now for a while. Finally, Darling made me make a stand and start running it again. I'll try my best to post as often as I can. I apologize for not commenting on any of your posts recently.<br />
<div><br />
</div><div>Everything is better than awesome for me. When you find the best thing in the world it's a little hard not feel awesome and proud :P *runs around* heeeee B-) You just keep overflowing, and you refuse to stop. How do I keep up? ;)<br />
<div><br />
</div><div></div><div><br />
</div><div>Hope you enjoyed the post.</div></div><div>Cheers!</div>Me-shakhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11342615482470058850noreply@blogger.com10tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4121075601441299477.post-30264639133294760342010-11-23T00:52:00.000+05:302010-11-23T00:52:41.423+05:30Come out soon!I always find it hard to keep this blog alive when I have all the time in the world on my hands. Like, during my previous holiday, I didn't post at all. I guess everything falls into place for me when I get extremely busy. I know it's weird, but I'm cool like that. I have been spending time these days helping darling find a good university to transfer to. recently I figured out the options available in countries like Malaysia and Singapore are superb. What do ya'll think? Other than that, I'm helping out with the construction of our new studio. I'll keep ya'll updated on that. It's turning out to be super!<br />
<br />
I still have not got the chance to step out of home. Have been spending hours in front of the computer screen. So, very little pictures these days :\ I rarely take my camera out. Really wish I could make a trip down south or something. Was planing to do something with my university friends, everyone seems to be busy.<br />
<br />
Got a few pictures over the past couple of weeks.<br />
<br />

I still have not got a chance to do a proper birding trip or anything of that sort. I'd love to do one soon. Where I live is not that very "bird" friendly. Even the little trees we have left are being chopped off -__- we used to have a crazy load of parrots come in to our garden but now, nothing! I have found myself spending hours looking at the garden next door. A few birds come there, once in awhile.<br />
<br />
Anyway, here is a glimpse of what I caught on camera.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_XjBDAT_dJ0k/TNjGF8enaVI/AAAAAAAAA-M/05C-LHKd8vk/s1600/IMGP0060.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_XjBDAT_dJ0k/TNjGF8enaVI/AAAAAAAAA-M/05C-LHKd8vk/s400/IMGP0060.JPG" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

I have been struggling to manage my time with exams and church and what not. So exams finished on Wednesday! Heee! I know. I have been waiting for this for a long time but you know what? I miss being busy. I have loads of pictures to share and I'll try my best to put them up soon.<br />
<div><br />
</div><div>*Cough Cough* So many interesting things have been happening. Me-shak has found his sunshine, blush blush! No really, she is all I want and a million times more. The best part is, she can tolerate me and all my stupidness and all. She is THE best thing that happened to me. It all happened in a very short time, like 4 to 5 days, and my oh my! it was heavenly :D Me-shak bought her flowers and made darling happy yesterday.</div><div><br />
</div><div>Sad part is, darling will be taken away from me in August next year, for 2 long ugly years. She is going to become a doctor lu. She is going to a faraway land. I miss her when she goes to the wash room, wonder what I'll do then. I know there is skype and MSN and all, but still :| </div><div><br />
</div><div>These pictures go out to my sun shine :D</div><div><br />

I couldn't wait till my exams were over. Last week on Saturday, after a very hard day of work I decided to drop in to Galle face to enjoy the breeze. The atmosphere was awesome and I agree, it is now the best place to hang out. There is no other place where you'll get what you get there. The sun set, the cheap food and the kites, Just awesome.<br />
<br />
<br />
Okay the main reason I went down there was cause I had never gone there after I got my new gadget, and that particular day the sky looked awesome. Check these out,<br />
<br />

I have been going off track for quite a long time and I't was hard to sit and rethink of my priorities. I guess sometimes you just get carried a way and forget what you really have to do. I have a big problem, and that is I just don't know to say no. I fall into a lot of trouble cause I get pilled up with so much to do. Then I rush through everything and do a shitty job. I don't mean to but I have no option. So now I have been learning to say no, I'm giving more time for my studies and the important things in life and it's Good!<br />
<br />
Okay enough of boring talk, check these pictures out.<br />

Since our mid term exams and all, had finished, we really needed a break. The break was not a big one, so we decided to make the best of it. </span></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />

I'm telling you, the Palliyawatta beach is getting better by the day. It's more like a big carnival now. Lots of junk food, music and what not? It's becoming more crowded each day. The setting is perfect for a good evening hang out. I would say without a doubt, it's better than many other beaches found around Colombo. The ambiance here is perfect.</span></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />

I don't understand as to why I got this. I usually never get stuff I want. All ways get stuff I don't want . I have been experimenting with this fine piece of work for some time now. The only issue with this camera is that the slowest shutter speed is 4 seconds. So for long exposures, this is not the best. Although I all ways try to crank up the iso and get the maximum of the awesome gadget.<br />
<div><br />
</div><div>Not long ago, I tried taking a few pictures, I guess I ended up with a few neat shots. </div><div><br />

It hadn't occurred to me until recently, that once we start the semester we don't have much of a break. I dunno if it's a good thing, lots of work and little play makes Jack a dull boy.<br />
<br />
Anyway, leaving all that a side I got a chance to take a short break and go to Bandarawela to take a look at a camp site we are planing to go to. On our way we passed, I would say one of the best sites you would ever come across in Sri Lanka, Haputale. I'm sure <a href="http://kirigalpoththa.blogspot.com/">Kirigalpoththa</a> would agree.<br />
<br />
Haputale is located roughly 170Km from Colombo, the capital. The Climb is very famous among tourists because of the view. The road runs along a edge of many mountains showing travelers a spectacular view. Sadly this trip was made before I got my new camera. The pictures you see below were taken using "Kalu Kella".<br />
<br />

As I walked out of the building the class is held, I started to hear awesome oriental music. I walked to the top of the road and was shocked to see what was happening.<br />
<br />
It was a Hindu procession. There were a good 75 - 100 trucks carrying people on hooks. Thats right, people on frigging hooks. I have seen similar stuff before. Nothing I had seen before could compare to the grand scale of this giant even. So much of "Kohomba" leaves were used to decorate the event, so much so it gave a jungle effect to the scene.<br />
<br />
Thaipusam, as I later found out, is a a festival celebrated by Hindu's all over the world. Thaipusam is celebrated to commemorate the occasion where Parvathi gave Murugan a Vel(spear) to vanquish a evil deamon called Soorapaadam. Kavadi dancers, kavadi dancers on hooks and many devout believers take part in a procession that lasts for several hours. The procession takes a set route, usually from one Temple to another.<br />
<br />
I'm usually fascinated by extreme things people do, and all ways try to capture it on film. Sadly I did not have my new Gadget with me. Although "Kalu kella" was right there with me. I managed to get some decent pictures.<br />
<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">This is one of the most extreme ones I saw. He had a hook on his fore head and even on his inner thighs. I couldn't fathom what I was seeing for a while.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">If you look closely, you can see how the hooks are pulled when the dancer swings himself from side to side. This dancer had a extra rope attached to the tree he was hung to make himself swing.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I stood by the side of the road for quite sometime looking and enjoying this magnificent festival. It was another splendid occasion which popped the thought of how amazing the world is. Just imagine how boring it would be if the world was not so colorful. The world has so much flavor because of the different cultures it has and because of what the people of those cultures do.</div><br />
The world is one AWESOME place<br />

The lowest shutter speed on my cam is 4 seconds, which is not really enough for low light landscape shooting. Although, some pictures were kinda cool. The moon has just started showing up on the west sky. Really fascinated with the super beauty they portrait. I should be studying, my mid term exams are scheduled for next Wednesday. I just finished a maths assignment and thought I would distract myself with something. It really works. Anyway, all that jazz apart. Here are the pictures.<br />

Yikes!First of all my apologies for not commenting on any of your posts. It has been a long time since I posted anything. I have been so so busy during the last few months. I mean this is the longest I have stayed without posting anything. Well the main reason was my uncle getting married. The guy lives in Japan. We had to do all the planing. Gosh it was crazy.<br />
<br />
The greatest thing about the past few weks is that I got my camera. The one I was dying for, for a long time. I wanted a Rebel T1i but it was way too expensive. I thought I'd settle for a Power shot sx20. So my uncle who was getting married was supposed to bring that for me. The guy comes, hands me a box. Now I'm guessing inside is the Canon but to my surprise it was not. It was a Pentax x90! I've never heard of it before. I was a little upset, ahh make that "very". My heart sank when I saw it. So I pull it out and start messing with it.<br />
<br />
The cam was quite good, it was actually better than the SX20. Only scene is I'm a Canon fan boy and it was hard to make up my mind about me not using a Canon. It had a great 26x optical zoom. I have never heard of that kinda zoom in a point and shoot. The ISO could go up to 6400. It had a good shutter speed of 1/4000 sec. It also had a good battery. And in no time I fell in love with it, and now I'm officially a "Pentaxian" (Looks at <a href="http://chavie101.blogspot.com/">Chavie</a>).<br />
<br />
Say hello :P<br />

It's kick ass until you hit 5g's and then it becomes unusable. I can't look at a web page forever no?, so I decided to take a break :) sorry for not commenting on any of the posts for a while. I'll do, as soon as I can get some free time on my hands.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">So not long ago, I did my first wedding gig. it wasn't much, but I was really happy I was apart of the best part of he ceremony. So the bride's brother decided to sing a song for his sister during the reception. And out of songs he chose Annie's song, it's not a awesome song to play but managed to do a decent arrangement for him. He sang, I played, she cried, then like the best hug I have ever seen. I couldn't watch. It was great, couldn't have asked for a better first gig.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Leaving all that jazz aside, I managed to take a few shots here and there. I think they look cool. These pictures were taken at Galle Face Hotel. </div><br />

Actually the pictures are almost a month old. On the 27th of May the Sri Lankan community celebrated Vesak in great grandeur. It was the first Vesak celebration since the 30 decade long civil war was over and that it self, added extra flavor and color to the festival. Sri Lankans from allover the island joined together hand in hand to make this Vesak season one of the best any Sri Lankan had seen.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">Vesak is celebrated by all most all Buddhists to commemorate </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 19px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">the birth, enlightenment (Nirvana</span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 19px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">), and passing away (</span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 19px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">Parinirvana</span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 19px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">) of </span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 19px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">Gautama Buddha</span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 19px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">. It's a time of celebration which is much anticipated by not only the Buddhist but by the whole community itself. Streets, houses, buildings, basically anything deco-ratable is colorfully dressed up with lights and lanterns and flags and what not? </span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 19px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br />
</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 19px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">I too had a blast this Vesak, well I did something that I wanted to do for so long and I finally did it. I do not have the licence to ride motorcycles. On the 27th I had a grand tour of the "Vesak Themagula". I rode with no licence at all on a big ass motorcycle, to one of three locations the "Themagula" was held, "Bauddaaloka Mawatha". The others being "Gangaraamya" and "Lake House" were also splendid. The street was filled with so many people, I could barely choose my direction, I was pulled all over the place the crowd went. Here are a few pictures I managed to capture in all that rush.</span></span><br />

I find it really weird that I love it when I'm busy and not so much when I'm not. I manage to do a lot more when I have lectures and meetings and church and all that going on. Somehow I squeeze in at least 5 to 6 posts a month when things are all over the place. <br />
<br />
Any way, not Long ago <a href="http://chavie101.blogspot.com/">Chavie</a> came over for a while and we decided to head out to sea, wait wait, that sounded wrong. No sailors here!, we wanted to head out to the beach, you know?, just to chill. We were fully hacked up after exams and all, so decided to take it easy for a while.<br />
<br />
The sky was a little dark that day, since it had been raining and all.The Hendala beach also called the "Palliya Watta Beach" is quite popular these days. It gets packed on weekends and poya days. So there we are walking down a jungly lane to get to the beach and I'll say with out a doubt, we saw The beach at it's best that day.<br />

Ghaaa<div style="text-align: center;">These days are extremely boring and a utter waste of time. After working quite hard for so long this two month vacation is really getting to me. Wonder why they have to give a two month vacation? I don't think they have any justification for that. I was reminded by a friend not too long ago, that every vacation we get during the three year course adds up to one year. Why do we have to waste one whole year when we can finish what we do in two years? I don't like wasting time. I like chilling but not all day long for two whole months.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Having unraveled my sudden realization of truth, I thought I'd share a few pictures. Here goes,</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

I love this picture for some reason. The guy looks extremely cool and he is chill-axing :P<br />
<br />
Probably the craziest thing I have done. I was that close to the elephant, and he had attacked a villager minutes ago. I feel stupid now for doing it. This was some where in Habarana.<br />

I usually don’t like to attend weddings and parties where my greater family is also a part of the chaos, my guys are a little problematic. This time I agreed with no hassle at all to go for a Home coming ceremony in Passikudah, Baticaloa. You might have already realized why I agreed without any hesitation. Well if you didn’t, one of the best frigging beaches found on this paradise island is right there, in Passikudah.<br />
<div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">I was a little afraid the ride would be really tiring since the host of the trip and the party had hired a not so comfy bus. It was one of those Ashok Leyland buses, not the nasty, ugly, angry looking ones that play shitty “octa pad” music, but the decent ones with a good head rest seat and all. The plan was to leave by 5 in the morning but you know as usual it was 7 when we left, the codda(coordinator) had fallen asleep.</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">It was raining heavily, the night before and the roads were all muddy and ugly. The bus speeded through the winding roads splitting puddles in half, up until Kerunegala. The road from there on is quite straight. So as usual I was shouting out loud, to stop in the “Kurunegala Kaley” to have poll roti and bim maal,and no one heard me, Jesus Christ! </div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />

</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">Being the “kiri panu gaaya” fellow, I couldn’t sit for long in the seat. So I decided to go sit in the foot board step, the place I usually end up on any trip I take in a bus. I managed to hit a few good shots here and there. </div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />

<div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">We arrived at Passikudah at around 4 in the afternoon. Everyone was full “hunter”, so they quietly walked into their rooms to get ready for the party. The party was horrid, the food was, *I’m going to puke face*, but it didn’t matter. The only thing playing in my head was the Sun rise over the eastern sea of Sri Lanka! I told amma I had to go see it. I asked them to join me; they said okay, I went to sleep with the alarm set to 5.15.</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">So I wake up from my not so comfortable bed, the ground, to the sound of my “<a href="http://me-shak.blogspot.com/2010/02/my-first.html">Kalu Kella</a>” calling me to go see the beach :D Everyone was fast asleep. I woke them up and all they said was, uuhhhh, and they went back to bed, even Nunga! I put on my red mal mal Shorts and headed down to the beach, which as I was informed was not so far away. I had no clue how to get to it. So now I’m down the pathway leading to the main gate. I was hoping the gate won’t be closed, and as usual, the exact opposite to what I hoped happened, the gate was locked with a inch thick Ibba(padlock). I was a little reluctant to jump over it because this one had major spikes on it. But what the hell I was late, so I did it, *proud*.</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">So I was expecting to hear at least the waves crashing but, nothing coming*crazy Indian hand motion*! And for my luck I met a fisherman on his way to his boat and I got directions. As I headed down the bend and turned, there she was in all her glory, calm as ever, blue in color, sexy, wiggly, waiting for me! I was so turned on :P And this is what the rest of my story looked like.</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">So when I walked into the beach, it was really blue. I was just struck in awe. No one was on the beach.

It's really nice to be treated with some cold weather especially after the heat wave and all that. I have been loving sleeping till late which I detest usually, but theses few days I woke up and said "man...., how can you get out of bed?" and went back to sleep :D<br />
<br />
I managed to get some cool pictures during the little breaks the rain took. Here are a few of the cooler ones :P<br />

The final exam was our C++ exam and I was loving it , I know all boring stuff but it gets me man, I enjoy it :) Which reminds me I haven't compiled in quite awhile and I have to before Everything gets replaced with all these guitar stuff!<br />
<br />
So exams finished on the 3rd and we had decided to go on a "wul tour" (meaning just rasthiyadufyne) around colombo. The first thing to do was to fill our growling stomachs, and with out a doubt we head down to pilla. Have super good "Masala cheese kottu" and some "Lime coke". Although not sure if <a href="http://chavie101.blogspot.com/">Chavie</a> enjoyed the Kottu, he just had a few spoons. Any way everyone looked high after the kottu. We decided to head down to Galle face.<br />
<br />

Galle face was sexy as usual. Isso wade, sea breeze, the spray the sea brought was amazing and soothing. We hung out there for a long time chatting since we wouldn't see each other in two months. I know, we have a two month vacation. *as waha, kata waha, duru wewa!*.<br />

Galle Face never fails to satisfy us. Each day, offers something new. Head down there when ever you are free, satisfaction guaranteed.<br />

Now everything is cool and life is back to normal, although not for long :(<br />
<br />
Anyways everything has been going smoothly, what are you guys up to? I have been fixing a lot of guitars theses days. it's really fun to mess with guitars, at least fir me :P I received a Fender Stratocaster for repair. I have been enjoying fixing it since it is the first time I got to mess with a Fender.<br />
<br />
It's 70's Strat and it's amazing. it's purple in color. Look really majestic. It's a great guitar to play old licks. The pickups are amazing and it has a great feel.<br />

I hope everything goes well. I have been waiting for this to happen for a while. I’ll make sure I write a post when it does happen. Till then fingers crossed :O<br />
<br />
Leaving all that jazz aside, I thought of writing a post about the things I love to do.<br />
<br />
My greatest desire is to hang out at the beach, I love both the mount beach and the wellawatta beach. I have not still got a chance to visit Kal-kudah or Paasi-kudah, which I dream about much often! Unawatuna and Hikka are good but I seldom go there :S So Wellawatta and Mount are my only options.<br />
<br />

I love hanging out at my place, it’s not that great but, the sunset is pretty cool. Every day the sky shows off the different colors it can make. She has something new to offer every day!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgxtu3QVqzc90gzqXMyQLccwLc6l8X0hE_Vs6S-c1VHV1fclMfEM6qKtpVLpQfw2PXxDf9Hvt2ZVm8zOqBl04L_ddGvzPYJfoXO-_-tXV8UUj6lgEh6DLqVMDBhjA7dFW8I9YAcgDNnzaY/s1600/DSC00263.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgxtu3QVqzc90gzqXMyQLccwLc6l8X0hE_Vs6S-c1VHV1fclMfEM6qKtpVLpQfw2PXxDf9Hvt2ZVm8zOqBl04L_ddGvzPYJfoXO-_-tXV8UUj6lgEh6DLqVMDBhjA7dFW8I9YAcgDNnzaY/s400/DSC00263.JPG" width="400" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">The sunset from my roof top.</div><br />
I love Galle Face. I know lots of people say it’s “goday” but I find it very cool. Mainly because of the beach and the sexy pier. Galle face was really good last week, I had a good load of fun, with great people. The aroma the “isso wade`” produces is just amazing. The “achcharu”, the “shawarma”, make it one big carnival.<br />

I have developed a great desire for train journeys. This once I took the train to Wellwatta and now I want to do it every day! It’s a whole different world in there. The people in trains are really different. Not like the ones in buses. Most of them are very pleasant and graceful, and the bouncy ride just chills me out.<br />

I much await to escape from the busyness of life, and spend a few hours listening to my love sing. The walks I take whenever I can spare a few hours have become events I look forward to, the most. The best part is, when you are out there, right next to her, you forget every thing. All the assignments, the exams, and what not? She helps you take your mind off things so effortlessly. The breeze that comes along with her mesmerizing voice refreshes your soul, your mind, your all. The beauty she presents each day in a different way can not bypass your mind! It will surely find a place in your heart. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
