Music to Celebrate the Return of My Ridiculously Priced Headphones

How can you ever stop listening to Mellisayae? I guess the only reason why I would deliberately avoid songs of the like would be because they hold me in a trance and stop anything else that I have to do that involves thinking. You just can't ignore it. It's perfect for cleaning though. There's no need to notice the labour of it all, if something routine. I feel like it's only a piece though, a piece of heaven but not with a start or an end. It just jumps out at you and when it's done, you're left wondering 'huh? what? When did it finish?'

So why was I listening to this? Or rather how was I able to listen to this? Well, when I shifted from a computer that wouldn't let me log on to one that would, my clumsy mind was focussed on grabbing my bag, but oblivious to the folded headphones connected to the computer. A nice boy who was on his way to try out the computer that wasn't lucky for me, tapped me on the shoulder and said, 'These wouldn't happen to be yours, would they?' I replied, 'Thank you soo much. :)', with that enthusiasm and went back to facing the screen. Now I don't have to worry about the possible grief that I would've felt when I realized my headphones were missing. :)

Mesmerized by a Child's Voice

I'm sitting in the computer lab at the CCIT building at Uni. I'm trying to will myself to start my abstract that's due at 12:00 am tonight. My baby blue Skullcandy headphones are huge but feel better than having two tiny pieces stuck inside. I'm typing in one window while I have Anakha kutti's Super Star Junior A.R.Rahman Round playing in another window. It's just so heavenly! I wanted to start this blog with a purposeful piece of writing. I wanted it to be a decent length, an intro I guess, something that put things in motion. But here I am, at a time where I can't afford to give my undivided attention to this blog, so I've decided that it doesn't matter how long it is; it's now or never. I'm listening to this girl's voice (for at least the twentieth time) and the bhavam in her singing frames a single moment in time, reminding me that this would be perfect; speaking of this divine sound that resonates from this angelic girl is definately a worthy place to take off. So, in the hopes of completing my abstract, I'm off to a world of rushed reading and forced critiquing of some random topic that sadly might've been interesting if in other circumstances. Before I leave though, shout outs to my inspirations for this blog: Keeths (the genius who describes me as indispensable) and Vijay (the singer/.../... etc. that writes in a way that causes me to want to throw away what I'm doing and start writing too). :)
