Just finished reading Inferno by Dan Brown. I always had love and hate relationship with Dan Brown (at least in regard with his last three books). He is a great write, a great story teller and knows exactly how to keep the flow going - I love him as a story teller. But he uses the most important artifacts from the history, or much more sensitive issues to create a commercial thriller - I hate him for that (Its my personal belief that they should be given much more respect and treated in much deeper philosophical way for the use of mankind, rather than for making money).

Forever Young!!

I just celebrated my 26 th Birthday [a wonderful one, I thank all my friends for the surprises, company and good wishes]. God!!! I have already lived a quarter of years, nearly half of   my life [average life of Nepalese is 67 as per some statistics by UNICEF], 4 yrs older than Mesut Oezil , the phenomenal player who helped Germany kick the ass of England in a recent World Cup encounter. Facts and figures really say I am getting older. Do I need to fuss over it? Actually I am not fussing over it, neither do I have any sad feeling that I am getting older. Some words from a popular number -something I really believe: Coz there's no tomorrow just a picture perfect day That last a whole lifetime and it never ends Coz all we have to do is hit rewind So let's just stay in the moment smoke some weed drink some wine Reminisce talk some shit forever young is in your mind Leave a mark they can't erase, neither space nor time So when the director yells cut, I'...
