Being Original

So here I am after a break, but felt like a 'word vomit' so here I am to spill my guts - eh get it, spill? Word Vomit!? - Wow! Now I feel queasy :/ Anyway. For today, I chose the topic 'Being Original' - I don't know if it has anything to do with Mike Posner's 'Cooler Than Me' playing in the background. or not. Cooler Than Me!



Well the song is groovy! Coming back to point. BEING ORIGINAL? Why be original? What is being original? How do you know what you are 'originally'? How do you know you arent faking out? So many question and so very complicated.

 I just understand one thing and that's very simple. 'Justifying your actions' - please this has no relations to religious point of views or anything. I am just generally making an observation. If I like to wear red lip color, I shouldn't have to 'justify' how bold the look is, if I want to listen to Coke Studio stuff its not because its so current and everybody is listening to it, if I don't want to talk to you its because I don't want to not because the 'peer pressure' is on and I have to own up the leader of the pack!? - I guess I am totally confusing you and not making any sense at all.

Simple put - don't do thing just to be in the 'it' crowd. Believe me it gets tiring. Soon you realize you have a low tolerance level, your comfort for thing you used to like is gone and sooner or later you are somebody you don't know. Either altogether avoid people you don't share interests if you are easy to influence or grow a backbone, try new things and filter out the stuff you dont like. For as long as I know people call me 'aggressive' 'too up front' 'too blunt' - cause I call them on their shit. I have always done it and in a way it relieves me of the duty to kiss up to them for the rest of time they'd be hanging around my life. Its a favor to both of us! How? - they know what to expect of me, I know what to expect of them. Also I have a low tolerance with people who are pretending, double meanings, manipulation - dude/dudette I don't have time for your games! Nobody does.

Being Original You - is necessary! maybe not when you are a teen and easily warped into the teeny bopper idols fascination but maybe in college or maybe later because if you want to truly enjoy life you have to let your guards down, you have to let go and you have to truly surrender to something bigger then yourself to experience happiness.

Being Original is so freeing, you don't have to bow down to anarchy of social norms or the figurative leader of your social pack, your time is your time. Be a little non-conformist, break out the mold.

To be a rebel - you don't have to be cool, you have to be original.

My Top 10 Favorite Tv Show Couples!


Oh yes I have loads of time to waste and the perfect way to do so is blog a list and yes I admit this is a cheesy one but whatever :D Lists are cool. (plus am waiting for CSI NY to torrent download ... so here goes nothing)

10. Agent Mulder n Scully (X-files)

Need I say more here? :D Scully n Mulder! Spend my young childhood fascinated by X-files n these two agents.



9. Janey n Billy (Jane By Design)

These two are fairly new on the horizon as the show 'Jane By Design' just completed its first volume of first season recently. Whats so special about them and why they work on screen? Jane n Billy are childhood best friends. Their chemistry, friendship, highschool and crazy whirlwind world of fashion keeps them on their toes quitenicely in the show. The funny thing is they aren't together together :D - thats TV show for you. The 10th episode ended on Billy spilling his guts to Janey and Janey being torn between two guys... lets see if anything does happen for them and the twist is Janey's frenemy has hots for Billy - Oolala!


8. Caleb n Hannah (Pretty Little Liars)

Caleb n Hannah are my favorite couple on PPL!! They make more sense then any of the other ones on the show. Why they work!? Because they are always busy saving each other.



7. Booth n Brennan (BONES)

From Season 1 to Season 5 their chemistry was something to salute to .. seriously! But however them coming together at the end of Season 6 was pretty much very anticlimax and spoiled the show for me.. still they are so awkward together that it will make you laugh. He calls her 'Bones'


6. Cappie n Cassie (Greek)

Greek will remain my ever favorite college tv show! It was awesome! If u haven't seen it u are missing out on a great show.

Cassie: "So umm... where to?"
Cappie: "Wherever you are going"

(Last Dialog from the Last Episode of Greek)





5. Sheldon n Amy (The Big Bang Theory)

Nothing can make you laugh like these two can! Why are they perfect together? Because they both are neurotic crazy geniuses who call each other on their exact wierdness and who still some how manage to look good together because they make sense! Haha the 'Shamy' keeps Big Bang Theory awesome! Nerd Love <3! and also then there is the 'Relationship Agreement' to consider.




4. Barney n Robin (How I Met Your Mother)

Okay yes I know they aren't together.. but they kinda were in Season 4/5 and Barney n Robin is definitely >>>>>>>>> than Robin n Ted! Why does it work? Very simple! Both of them (Barney n Robin) are totally emotionally unavailable people who are afraid of commitment and avoid the sentimental stuff. They make a whole lot of sense together. I have my fingers crossed for them! ..... oh yes.. 'Wait for it........' :P *up top*




3. Phil and Claire Dunphy (Modern Family)

The moment I saw Modern Family, the Dunphies became my favorite! Claire is totally neurotic control freak and a mother of three where as Phil is the gadget moron Dad who is a total dreamer. Why do they work together? They do because Phil is the dreamer and Claire is the realist, Phil is laidback chill out where is Claire is serious and tightly wound. They say opposite attract! Dunphies are definately an example of one of them.




2. Monica n Chandler (F.R.I.E.N.D.S)

:D :D :D :D - oh whoever has seen FRIENDS can never get enough of Chandler and Monica!




1. Danny n Linsey Messer / Dantana for Fans :D (CSI Newyork)

Initially as Linsey Monroe and later Danny's wife. Linsey Monroe was this new addition to the CSI New York in Season 2. She is a tough country girl crime lab investigator and is awesomely brave enough to even eat beetles (which Danny places $100 bet she wouldn't) where as Danny Messer is this passionate aggressive bad boy who mended his way and became a forensic scientist. Why do they work together? - Because they are so alike yet so different at the same time. Their chemistry was one thing that instantly got me hooked to the show and the tv show has done a stellar job on keeping your guessing on it. Oh n there is a 'bundle' of joy in the show too :p




(Linsey lost staring at a diamond necklace on a crime scene)
Danny: Don't even think about it, Montanna!
Linsey: *chuckles* This necklace is worth more than what I make in an year.
Danny: What so special about diamonds? Its just an allotrope of carbon!
Linsey: Spoken like a true romantic.

Season 3 Episode 2: Not What It Looks Like

Half Baked TV Shows



I have been wanting to write this list for a long time now. When I say 'Half-Baked' I mean tv shows that have the potential to be WOW but fail to make that impact even though they have a killer production level.


So here goes:

1: Blue Bloods

'Blue Bloods' is a show centered on a life of a family of cops. It revolves around ethics, morale, principality issues about New York, but the cases are 'too easy to solve' and stuff about New York isn't incorporated much.

Full-Baked Comparison : CSI-Newyork - (On a side note I think Don Fleck is seriously cute!)



2: Castle

This show is half baked cop show n full baked chemistry, in a good way. It sells completely on the leads' chemistry which is quite excellently pulled off, again the cases fail to make an impact because they are too easy to predict. 15 minutes into an episode and I can tell who the killer would be.

Full-Baked Comparison: BONES.



3: SUITS n Franklin & Bash

These both shows make my summer! They do indeed. They are hilarious .. atleast Franklin&Bash is more funny than SUITS, but SUITS has Harvey Spectar and thats what makes the difference. Its half-baked drama n half-baked comedy with super super HALF-baked Law. Where are the good law cases? Isn't this suppose to be a Law Show?

Full-Baked Comparison: Boston Legal (Drama Law), Ally McBeal (Comedy Law)



4. White Collar

When I started watching this show I became an instant fan. Be it Matt Bomer's fine fine FINE suitings or the romance of paintings involved in this show.. I was a total sucker for it. But after one season I was like.. where is this show going? The show is about a con-man who starts working for FBI White Collar Division. This show is sitting on a goldmine. People love to watch con artistry, heist and stuff, its romance for the underdogs! but the show doesnt explore the con side of this story much and the cases are very tepid.

Full-Baked Comparison: Ocean's 11, 12, 13!



5. The Finder

Finder just recently started, the pilot which spin-offed in the series of Bones but once the show started it lacked the 'oommph' Why? - The show is based on the 'Locator' series books and is about a veteran whose brain is wired in such way that he can find just about anything. He is the locator. The Show should and could explore all the treasure hunting aspects but it doesnt.

Full-Baked Comparison: Relic Hunter.

The Call


There is a siren wailing,
A shout, a scream, a signal, a sign
Being blind to it, something never heard before
Its like a silence ringing through my ear
Is my head splitting open or my life being ripped apart at seams?
Its being like stretched from both ends, Its like watching yourself chip away
Flecks of past are settling in the grooves of time, its like broken record repeating in crime
I am slowly sinking down this rabbit hole, not even trying to break this fall
Walls are closing in, space is being squeezed shut, there is no place to move, my heart is seizing up

I am looking for a miracle, I want to hear the call
Crash in to me, make me move, before time freezes everything in its place
Its only echo bouncing about, tell me what I am here for... I want to hear my call
I am staring up in the sky, wishing for a collision, for the deep impact
Crash into me, scream in my ear, I need to move before I bury myself here.

So just say my name, just tell me why I am here
Just make this call...

I am looking for you..




I need a place to rest my head,
A place to survive, to safely bleed
We are being pulled apart, planets betweens
Dreams apart, Oceans within and these messes it seems
You can let these rivers run wild, feeling the water escape your hold
Rushing through you, with you, anchoring you but we still sway
All I am for, what I was made for, this stateless state
I am here looking for you...

The sand is moving right beneath my feet, it will not hold, it will bury me deep
Restless is even the ground, maybe it will offer me the refuge I seek
We already aren't making out alive, so what the rush darling, maybe this is home
Still searching for my place, for our shore, for our reach
We are ruining our options, we are running out of time
And still I am here, grounding my feet, dragging my heels, just hold for one more moment
I am still here looking for you..
