Bus diaries - a pleasant one!

Author : Hari Kumar      Blog : My Diminutive Paradise      Date : 4/22/2013 3:19:00 PM

'Sometimes,  with the remains of the day we will feel pleasant and contended for no reason.  That time,  when every song you listen to is wonderful and everything you see is beautiful . Today,  is oddly that kind of day for me. A pleasant eccentricity!! With half a window open, I invite the wind and the world to show me its wonder. The bus was moving rather faster today, leaving more entry for the wind to play around. Streaks of hair from a girl sleeping in the fr(...)'

Unfinished - Day dreaming

Author : Hari Kumar      Blog : My Diminutive Paradise      Date : 3/9/2013 4:45:00 PM

'I think i started typin this sometime back , when i was in bus , on d way to office . This has been lying in my drafts for a long time . I dont wanna complete it now ... it was a broken day dream and shall remain as one . So just publishing it.....With the horns honking,  engines roaring and the tress moving , it is nothing but a typical week day . But I am left with a discomfort in my heart. My book,  remained deserted with no words to feed it and a fine coat of dust ruin(...)'

Kadal

Author : Hari Kumar      Blog : My Diminutive Paradise      Date : 2/3/2013 4:31:00 PM

'  The trailer told us what the plot was . The reviews would have told you what the movie is . In my opinion , Kadal is not as expected , not even close . The first half has a few noticeable and well placed scenes which really gives off Mani’s aura but it fades and flickers in a predictable , dull and not so interesting second half . Bermes as pure evil is perfect and so is Father Sam but the growth of these characters is rather naive . The scene where Bermes tricks , Father Sa(...)'

Needhane En Ponvasandham - My opinion

Author : Hari Kumar      Blog : My Diminutive Paradise      Date : 12/15/2012 1:38:00 PM

'The movie began with deafening roars,  claps and whistles from the audience - not for the hero - but for Santhanam. This man is clearly the fav of the masses.  The movie is all about the emotional outbursts between Varun (Jeeva) and Nithya(Samantha) . They fight,  break up,  meet up after sometime and again fight - break up and there u go...  That's all the movie is about. It did look cute,  when it began and slowly it turned out to be totally annoying.(...)'

Creature of Anger

Author : Hari Kumar      Blog : My Diminutive Paradise      Date : 9/23/2012 12:04:00 PM

'  A war is raging . Echoes of shrieking from a creature of madness . Running berserk and smashing everything around . It pays no heed to the voices of redemption . Its is trying to rip itself open to release the frustration . A war is raging , in my mind . Can no longer take it , can no longer control it . The walls of my mind keep breaking down . The creature’s prison shattered to pieces .It keeps biting and kicking , slamming against everything . It had drowned out the day ,(...)'

Pushing the limit

'  No one knows anyone completely , we choose what to show and what to see . There are always some exceptions to this like our Mom , Dad or a very close friend who you have given the keys to open many doors of our life . I cannot comment on how the Gen-Pop is , but I do no trust anyone with those keys that easily . There are always tests before you get to trust someone completely and let them in and there is always someone , who just directly gets into your heart , you cant exp(...)'

A change of Idea…of Shirts …of Pants

Author : Hari Kumar      Blog : My Diminutive Paradise      Date : 7/15/2012 5:54:00 AM

'  If there is one thing that can leave you terribly confused , than calculus or algebra , its choosing your dress . I have many personal experiences where my friends used to spend hours in a store confused , to pick the perfect one . When it comes to formal clothing , first I go with the shirt and then hunt for a suitable pant  , and I believe that how most guys would do it . Ready-mades are much less easier to choose from than selecting your fabric and get it tailored . (...)'

'It was very late . I thought I had to leave the office alone , without any company . The day was very tiring , it would really be good if there was someone to talk to until I reach home . But , today was late and everyone has already left except the hard truth that I have to go alone . I was walking to the gate when a friendly voice called my name . It was my college mate Vishwa . I was lifted with comfort in seeing a person I have spent 4 years of my life with , especially now , wh(...)'

Traffic violations–What happens if

Author : Hari Kumar      Blog : My Diminutive Paradise      Date : 6/10/2012 4:45:00 AM

'  In response to my previous post , many friends of mine wanted to write a post about what actually happens when you are caught for dis-obeying traffic rules . So , here it is . Before I actually get into the topic , I wish to set a few things clear . Traffic police , as in any other departments has hierarchies .There are levels of supervision and each is held responsible to answer the the one under its control . These people in general , work for much longer hours than anyone (...)'

Just Fear and No Responsibility

Author : Hari Kumar      Blog : My Diminutive Paradise      Date : 6/10/2012 3:19:00 AM

'  There are many places when you find people responding and bowing down just to threats , cash and fear and not to what is humane . Everything looks fine and seems to be in order , when there is someone around to hold things in chains , trying to control . People just pretend as though they obey but that’s one big sick joke .The moment the chains break or let loose , things go berserk . One thing that deeply bothers me is the traffic . In day light , I don’t  think we can(...)'

The Goldilocks Network

Author : Hari Kumar      Blog : My Diminutive Paradise      Date : 6/6/2012 1:36:00 AM

'  An article I was reading recently in a magazine (New Scientist) had this discussed . Now all of us have heard about Goldilocks and the three bears . In that story she finds a bed that is by all means suitable after trying a few . Now the topic that I'm going to discuss here has its roots in that story .  It is always said that a person can be judged by his friends . That is because friends are the most influential people in our life . They know us and so we share &&(...)'

Is Lord Ram the culprit ???

Author : Hari Kumar      Blog : My Diminutive Paradise      Date : 5/27/2012 2:04:00 PM

'  The Castle system in India has long prevailed and has been a dirty devil to play with . The politicians however seem to have signed a pact with the devil and use it as a perfect tool to muster up votes during elections . Too many movies were taken and far too many poets and activists tried their hand in vanquishing the devil , but they were mere nudges , not the actual PUSH our people require . How to eliminate one is a whole different story altogether .. what I was more con(...)'

The key to memories

Author : Hari Kumar      Blog : My Diminutive Paradise      Date : 5/20/2012 2:10:00 PM

'  It is really fascinating how even small things can remind us of something big and how they serve as clues to bring together the scattered pieces of a puzzle . I realized this very recently . The bus stop , a broken pen , an old bus ticket that somehow remained in your wallet , a song , anything can be the key to your memories . I just started to ponder upon this , when I very accidentally came through an album of Enya . This was the album that encapsulates my training memori(...)'

If you are regular visitor and if by chance you have noticed , I have been rambling and going on and on about a novel – a trilogy actually . It was almost a year gap between the first and the second book . My interest in the book intrigued  many people I know , especially the one who gifted me the others . Seeing me , absorbed in the book , made them(...)'
