A Desire long Over-due

-
Ever since I got out of my tiny pond called Nokia, I realised there's a whole vast ocean called Apple. Since then, on and off I have been dreaming about the amazing over-priced products they make. And finally today I have become an 'isheep'. I bought my first idevice- the IPhone 7 plus and its magnificent. Sure I had to do everything short of selling kidneys but I finally got there and as of now it seems like a place worth being. Its gorgeous, its fast, its powerful, buttery smooth, intelligent, its everything and beyond in a smartphone. Out of a lot of choices I chose the IPhone over Android primarily for a change of taste. Sure Android phones offer you all those stuff (for the first six months, LOL!!) but then again what's living if it aint adventurous. Here are some pics of my unit. Pls don't mind the bad quality pics, it was taken from a very old Samsung phone.

So initially I was fixated on the Galaxy A9 Pro, but my choice kept changing with each passing week. The next was C9 Pro, then came HTC 10, then came Galaxy S7 Edge, followed by LG G6 which was supposed to be my next device until some people intervened and impacted my thinking. I was already saving, but with some boost I could reach iPhone 7 plus. The ultimate decision was to be made next- which colour. They are all nice but I love black and there are 2 of them. Just black and the jet black. The matt black was the practical choice. Less scratches, less fingerprints. But the jet black version looked so divine. Ultimately I went with the matt black edition, thanks to the pre-GST prices.

So theres an interesting story I have been thinking of writing about. Me and my friend were one day discussing the smartphone scenario and realised we both were kind of jinx to whatever smartphone brand we patronized over the years. He being responsible for Nokia, Sony and LG while me being Responsible for Nokia (4 times), Lumia, HTC and Le Eco. While one of his and two of mine are dead and the others are kinda clinging to life by a string. So he decided to jump ship and switch to the immortals (read Apple) and our observation so far says it was not him, it was the smartphone industry. While I have jumped ships late, it would be interesting to see if Apple shares start tanking in some time. If it does I'm really sorry folks that you wont be seeing your beloved iphones in few years anymore. :D :p I hope I'm not that powerful of a jinx.

Hoping for a good experience and a long company of this remarkable piece of tech, enjoy your day. Will see you soon.

Most Memorable Villans Ever- My perspective

More than the heroes its the villains that entice me, in general and in entertainment. Over the years the spectrum of con characters was widened incredibly. Its not just black and white anymore. Every person has a balance of goodness and darkness in them, which is now thankfully reflected more and more in entertainment world. I like my antagonists whimsical, bitchy and glamourous. I have written a lot about actors and icons so I thought why not bring spotlight to some brilliant villains. Here's my list. Let me know your views... 6. Captain Chantel DuBois (Madagascar 3) Wikipedia says " Captain Chantel DuBois (voiced by Frances McDormand) is a Monegasque animal control officer and the main antagonist of the third Madagascar movie. She is the best animal control officer in Monte Carlo with a perfect success record. She is a big-game hunter and has extraordinary tracking skills, as well as superhuman strength and a habit of mounting the heads of every animal she has caught

Kabir Singh- A Doctor's Review

So I found time to watch the latest bollywood release- Kabir Singh with Shahid Kapoor and a few beautiful women I’m not bothered to learn the names of. After a long time, medical profession and live of doctors was the baseline for a very mainstream movie, the last one was Munna Bhai MBBS, and it was a wonderfully entertaining with great social message. So I had a lot of expectations. It was a remake of the south Indian movie Arjun Reddy and I’m not familiar with it at all. And lets just say, in spite of a watchable story line, it let me down in so many parameters, so many dimensions, it won’t be easy writing this. So first lets start with the good. Almost everyone of the cast member are great actors and it showed (other than the various beautiful romantic entanglements of Dr Kabir Singh, MS Orthopedics, thats why I’m not bothered to learn their names). Shahid Kapoor does an incredible job of portraying an aggressive, testosterone fuelled doctor with severe anger issues and blat

Goodbye College!!!

So exactly 4 and a half years back I started the journey of my Graduation, 2000 kms away from home. With my admission to a Medical School, I was never more excited in my life. Those were the innocent days when I still believed in the power of men and the strength of oneself to conquer the world. I still do but with better understanding of the phrase "One's own Enemy." The abundantly fabled College life was not totally what I expected it to be. A myriad of failures, wins, heartbreaks and sleepless nights was what it was. When I started I remember being anxious about the fact that the course was almost 6 years long, but someone told me that I wont even realize how fast this time would pass. And here I am, on a lonely night, listening to Adele and writing an article about it. On February 10th, 2018 we had our final exams results declared. I was on a train when I was forwarded the results and It was a moment to remember. Happiness, anxiety, surprise, shock- There was lo
