It's been quite some time I have been thinking of makin this space. Don't really know what will be the whole purpose of doing it. Maybe it's jus' that sense of satisfaction or is it lettin' my life known to the whole world.
But the whole purpose of it is....killin my time away.Anywayz I am not doin' much justice to it.
Let's see......I am doing nothing since last four hrs. Not getting any bloody sleep. Not studying,nor do I feel like reading any book and my Music system is so screwed.Hopefully Monday being the salary day and an off o top of it will bring some joy. Hehehe..Really missing home today !!!!!

Quadrophenia:The four faceted mindset
Quadrophenia,is the story of a young mod's struggle to come of age in the mid-'60s. based on The Who’s seminal rock opera from the early 1970s presaged the mod revival of late 70s Britain.
In mid 60s two youth cults emerge – the mods and the rockers – with explosive consequences. For Jimmy and sleek ,suited, pill popping, scooter riding mates, being a mod is a way of life. Together they head off to Brighton for an orgy of drugs, thrills and headline-making violent clashes with the rockers. Like many other youths Jimmy's hates the philistine life, especially his parents and his job in mailing division. Only when he's together with his friends, a 'Mod' clique, cruises London on his motor-scooter and hears 'The Who' and 'The High Numbers', he feels free and accepted.
However it's a flight into an illusionary world.What goes up must come down, and with Jimmy's comedown his life is turned around, so begins his downward spiral into paranoia and isolation, and the four faceted mindset: Quadrophenia. With its extremely realistic language and violent overtones.Hated by everyone,turned down by all,with no hopes at all thats what life has come to.
The concept might have ultimately been too obscure and confusing for a mass audience...but if you are really in for something insane then go for it.
The reason I like the movie and its music so much because in the recent days to come you will see all of us has seen or met Jimmy sometime in our life.If not then maybe he might be deep inside you !!!
I do have the movie as well the Music.Also i have included the lyrics of a few songs.Jus' go through them and check the intensity and the insanity of the lyrics. Do Post in your comments.Cheers

Jus' my insanities!!
Sitting here in this cold dark room ,in front of this Ugly hired PC really don't know where to start from and what to start with. Just that I really don't belong to this place and maybe i will never get to work in a place i love.
Day started off with some irritating Qs & As with some irritating people.My phone ceased to work and people still find some ways to get in touch with me.As usual,end of the month I am broke and jus' waiting for my salary.And the frustration of meeting some people you really don't want to meet.
Wanted to get rid off the frustrations.Went to watch Mr.Bean's holiday.That also was of no real fun.Thats what i call forced comedy.On top of it those ads before and in-between the movies which tells you Nothing and irritates you all the more.
Overall ..another Boring day.
Will post in something tomorrow..If only I get some time from all the other useless commitments I have.
