Change is good. Although I liked the previous look of this blog very much, I’m already liking the new look a tad better and have forgotten how the old one looked like, I think. Short attention span/selective memory at its best.

The new picture in the header leads the way to Hanuman Tok, in Gangtok. The entire route zig zags all the way uphill, lined with beautiful pine trees and the weather there is almost always misty throughout the year. One of the scenic tours that most romantics take on their dates.

Speaking of which, I had an interesting date today. Well, technically - we all did. Today is 08/08/08 although this only reminds me that more than half of this year’s already passed by. Not a good feeling because I am not too keen on 2009 for reasons best left till the mandatory Rave and Rant posts that will be made by me at the end of the year.

Went through Mr Amitabh Bachchan’s blog today. Not a major fan of his - mainly due to movie titles like Suryavansham, Major Saab and such others. Somehow it was a pleasant surprise to find a very intellectual, poignant and expressive human being beneath that mysterious superstar exterior. Today’s post was the best I’ve read in a long time and thats not exclusive to his blog. Makes you almost forget that he’s an on-screen god. Or an untouchable superstar.

Somehow he seems more human, just like you, me or any other blogger venting their feelings in what can only be described as their respective stress-busters. Nice. I like.
