Going to get my PHD in future in the same field.
Am fond of nature, music, dancing (esp. ballet), collecting antics, keeping pets, doing sports (esp: ice skating & table tennis), classical films, travelling all around the world & having friends from different countries with different cultures and religions.
I'm a very fan of, Rodney Crowell (esp. the song: "I know Love is all I need"), Darren Hayes (song: "Darkness"), Celine Dion, Braian Adams, Pink Floyd, Enigma and Yanni's music.
An admirer of Morgan Freeman, Sean Connery, Tom Hanks :-) Forest Gump, to me, was one of the bests. "Leon" was the very impressing and unforgettable one. Julia Roberts shines at "My Best Friend's Wedding Party." and I'd never forget the movies "The Story of Linda McCartney", "Seven Years in Tibet", "The Zoo-keeper", "The Name of the Rose", "Dead Poets' Society", "Dr.Zhivago", "Babe", "The Reality of Love", "Simon Birch" & "Possession".
see ya :-)
....To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all of our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death.
Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow; a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more: it is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing....
Shakespear

Instants
````````````
If I could live again my life,
In the next - I'll try,
- to make more mistakes,
I won't try to be so perfect,
I'll be more relaxed,
I'll be more full - than I am now,
In fact, I'll take fewer things seriously,
I'll be less hygenic,
I'll take more risks,
I'll take more trips,
I'll watch more sunsets,
I'll climb more mountains,
I'll swim more rivers,
I'll go to more places - I've never been,
I'll eat more ice creams and less (lime) beans,
I'll have more real problems - and less imaginary
ones,
I was one of those people who live
prudent and prolific lives -
each minute of his life,
Offcourse that I had moments of joy - but,
if I could go back I'll try to have only good moments,
If you don't know - thats what life is made of,
Don't lose the now!
I was one of those who never goes anywhere
without a thermometer,
without a hot-water bottle,
and without an umberella and without a parachute,
If I could live again - I will travel light,
If I could live again - I'll try to work bare feet
at the beginning of spring till
the end of autumn,
I'll ride more carts,
I'll watch more sunrises and play with more children,
If I have the life to live - but now I am 85,
- and I know that I am dying ...
Jorge Luis Borges

What moment in the gradual decay does reserection choose? What year? What day? Who has the stopwatch? Who rewinds the tape? Are some less lucky, or do all escape?.....
Yet, IF prior to life we had been able to imagine life, what mad, impossible, unutterably weird, wonderful nonsense it might have appeared!
Vladimir Nabokov `````````````````````````` |
