Darkness within: The Isolation

Image
This is 2nd episode of the fiction- Darkness Within, pls read the 1st episode before reading any further if u haven't already. Isolation is not necessarily the worst thing in the world. Some like Sabrina have longed for it and enjoyed it subconsciously since departing from Bashol, Himachal Pradesh. Away from the noise of the pressure cooker, away from the abuses of her mother, Sabrina would often enjoy reading a romantic story late night in her one room apartment and as the silence of the night grew louder, fall asleep inside a thick blanket in the cold winter night of Delhi. But the isolation of being locked down in a tiny white room with nothing but a bed and no windows was not her dream scenario. Absolute silence, a metal bed and a food tray delivered by guards were her only company. The food tasted surprisingly good. She guessed that must be the difference between a custody and an arrest. Its been 3 days since the incident. Sabrina has been subjected to two episodes of

A month with my iPhone 7 Plus: the Good, the Bad and the Worse

Every thing that shines is not gold, but something that does not shines can be gold too. Obviously I'm talking about my matte black iPhone 7 Plus I bought exactly a month ago. My first iDevice and also my first high end phone. The ride ever since is one heck of a roller coaster. Here is my amateur analysis of using this magnificent beast for a month. THE GOOD... Every thing you see, touch and feel is remarkable. That's some strong words for a person who was using a cheap Chinese iOS imitating android phone for the last one year. Either way, I'm totally floored. The matte black finish is a total looker, the cold n sturdy metal finish, the curvy Corning Gorilla Glass is to die for, the magnificent display even at 1080p, the speakers, the water resistant IP67 rating etc etc, everything about it is flawless. But one thing that mesmerises me like a child at Disney Land is the camera(s). The Dual setup of cameras at the back essentially for lossless optical zoom is to die

Half dry and half dripping, Sabrina arrived at her office 25 minutes late. It was a rainy day in New Delhi and traffic was worse than usual. Closing her inverted, broken umbrella she looked ahead to find everyone standing away from their cubicles. Bipin, sujoy, Abhishek, Aparna etc everyone. They stared at her but did not spoke anything. Walking forward she looked at the boss's glass chambers. There were a few people sitting and a few standing- and Mr Jain was desperately trying to explain something to them. All sweaty and tearful, his statements suddenly got aggressive and loud and people throughout the floor could hear him- "YOU GUYS HAVE NO RIGHTS TO DO THIS...." "Ms. SABRINA!!!" someone yelled at her from her cubicle. Sitting in the dark was an old but tall, dark man with a hefty build. She moved closer and noticed he had humongous mustache and eyebrows. He stood up, to a towering 6 and a half feet. "I am Mr Ajay Maakan, from Anti-Corruption Bureau.

SHAKIRA and ColdPlay together.... MAGIC!!!

Browsing through YouTube when I should be studying for the exams that are already over my head, I saw concert videos of my heart throb Shakira and Coldplay together. There was no stopping me now, Exams who!!! I dug in and realized Shakira and Chris Martin (and rest of the Coldplay) performed together several of each others songs together live in Hamburg, Germany in front of a massive audience. those songs include Chantaje, Me Enamore, Yellow and A Sky Full of Stars. It was a brilliant moment and they had an amazing chemistry together, far beyond what I would have asked for. They mesmerised the audience with instrumental versions of each others songs and it was so beautiful to watch. Here are some videos for you to see. I hope they come together later on for some groundbreaking original collaborations in the near future. Amen!!! :D :D <3 <3
