I was never a good reader during my school days, thanks to the 'quality' of teaching at the schools. Add to it the fact that my parents never seemed to have time to spend on these apparently 'trivial' leisures, you get a prefect mixture for 'hypolexia'. I noticed something while I was reading a passage about Gay Issues on the computer with a friend of mine - he would finish a paragraph in about 2/3rd time that I would take. If that made me feeling funny, a comment about having to read the entire Lord of the Rings book set, multiple times, during your childhood got me doubting my scholarly achievements.
Although both of these didn't directly pushed me into starting the jumbo paperback of the 'pseudo-trilogy', I feel better right now after going through the first thirty or so pages. It has got me really interested mainly because of the fact (that I think) that the plot is based on mythology which attribute the Human race's origin from other forms of intelligent life (Dwarves). That's very interesting indeed. I don't know how many of you are bored after reading this post about some thing which you might have thought about a decade back, but give me a break guys!
As I mentioned yesterday that I'm recording this new song called "Promises". I did some remastering today and the demo sounds balanced. I got wonderful reviews from friends from all over and I'm very glad about it. If you want to listen to the song click here to download. Listen to the song (lyrics are in an earlier post) and send in comments.
About the two issues that I've been working with lately, one has been resolved to some sort of solution now. The other one is still there. I hope it's not too late before anything bad happens. Late in the day, some persistent rain spoiled my plans to be at the Casualty (ER) at College after a gap of 3 years with my friends. I felt bad about the missed opportunity which had given me the time to start the book.
Comments please.
