The Dark Knight Rises

'Watched 'The Dark Knight Rises', after a long time it released. Yes, well... I kind of AM a bit of laters. The whole point of being a loner, is not that you find peace in dejection, loneliness, failed hopes and wandering of a past that haunts you like a ghost... but it is something more. That you have a chance to come back. That there are opportunities lying out there waiting for you. That there will be a time, and it will come, very soon, when people will need you, more than ever..(...)'

'Another example how to create a multi-layered picture in GIMP.1. Build the base. I have used 12 cracks brushes to build the base of this picture. You can try texts, figures, buildings, silhouette, blood drops anything you want.  2. Build the main theme of the picture. I've used figures and stuff for this one. 3. Add extra touch. Using more brushes. Use colours wisely as they define the mood of the picture. And then here you have, a whole picture built from gimp bru(...)'

My Love, Forever

';;;; She looked beautiful. Although her mascara stained eyes told me she had cried, moments ago.And then I see a shadow hiding in the dark. ‘You look lovely’, I say, as we make way towards the restaurant. She smiles briefly, but doesn’t answer.She doesn’t talk much, throughout the dinner. An unmindful soul, she has turned into.On the platform, as we wait to catch the last train, I see a man coming towards us.‘Go away.’ She cries out. ‘I don’t love you…’The man keeps looking at (...)'

'Far over the misty mountains coldTo dungeons deep and caverns oldWe must away ere break of dayTo seek the pale enchanted gold.The dwarves of yore made mightly spells,While hammers fell like ringing bellsIn places deep, where dark things sleep,In hollow halls beneath the fells.For ancient king and elvish lordThere many a gleaming golden hoardThey shaped and wrought, and light they caughtTo hide in gems on hilt of sward.On silver necklaces they strungThe flowering stars, on crowns the(...)'

'I have seen all kinds of bizarre things happening in life but not like this.I was thinking about the answer of something. And then the answer came in. In the form of an FB post from a page.I had returned to the usual question. 'Why had she said nothing to me? What could be the reason of her behavior?'Everything happened so quickly yet calmly, I thought.. She remained as an epitome of silence. And why, nobody ever knew.And then I saw the post from a page.Of all the people who forget(...)'

'Watched 'The Hobbit - An unexpected Journey'. Liked the movie. Infact really really liked it. But more than anything of the movie, the soundtracks will remain with you. Literally. Listen to this : The Misty Mountains ColdMartin Freeman needs extra mentioning. The absence of any real star is a bit of a problem. Ian McKellen is old but does magic and acts as a magnet in the screen-space. Dad retired today.'
