Implication and inference

Today was Nepal Bandh, again no cars, no pollution but still no normal life as well. My day was also pretty abnormal stayed at home almost the whole afternoon, cleaned my room (after a very long time). And soon there is load shedding as well so it will be a short day today, the lights go out from 9 till 1 in the night so will be in bed very early today. Kein Probleme.

Have been reading poems of Goethe lately (again) and some are really nice. No wonder even Rammstein have covered some of his work (Heidenröslein became Rosenrot and Erl-König became Dalai Lama). This one is also nice.

Nähe des Geliebten

Nearness of the
Beloved
One

Ich denke dein,
wenn mir der Sonne schimmer
Vom Meere strahlt;
Ich denke dein,
wenn sich des Mondes Flimmer
In Quellen malt.

Ich sehe dich,
wenn auf dem fernen Wege
Der Staub sich hebt,
In tiefer Nacht,
wenn auf dem schmalen Stege
Der Wandrer bebt.

Ich höre dich,
wenn dort mit dumpfem Rauschen
Die Welle steigt.
Im stillen Haine geh' ich oft zu lauschen
Wenn alles schweigt.


Ich bin bei dir,
du seist auch noch so ferne,
Du bist mir nah!
Die Sonne sinkt,
bald leuchten mir die Sterne.
O wärst du da!

I think of you,
when I see the sun's shimmer
Gleaming from the sea.
I think of you,
when the moon's glimmer
Is reflected in the springs.

I see you,
when on the distant road
The dust rises,
In deep night,
when on the narrow bridge
The traveler trembles.

I hear you,
when with a dull roar
The wave surges.
In the quiet grove I often go
to listen
When all is silent.


I am with you,
however far away you may be,
You are next to me!
The sun is setting,
soon the stars will shine upon me
If only you were here!

Ich brauche ein Motorrad!

I think i really have to get a bike soon. its getting more hectic day by day. from tomorrow onwards im serious about that. also, ich habe mein pruefung von Monntag und habe ich nichts gelernt. I have to start studying otherwise that too will turn out bad (natuerlich!). so have to get my "weil", "obwohl","ob", nominative, akkusative,dativ,genetiv and all those sentences correct, i need to brush upon my grammar and learn how to write a proper letter to my friend in Germany. so short time and so much to cover. I think i should practice more, ich denke nur and mache sehr wenig, das ist schlecht, so von heut nacht oder morgen studiere ich sehr nett. Auf Wiederschreiben!!

FIRST LOSS.


AH! who'll e'er those days restore,

Those bright days of early love
Who'll one hour again concede,

Of that time so fondly cherish'd!
Silently my wounds I feed,
And with wailing evermore

Sorrow o'er each joy now perish'd.
Ah! who'll e'er the days restore

Of that time so fondly cherish'd.


- Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe, 1789.

Trivial Stuffs (?)

first things first, sent two applications(finally) to universities. don't know how all will come out, can only hope for the best. anyways, traveled the whole day for the Women in ICT stuffs, it was fun in its own part but still somehow ended up with an aching leg by the end of the day. but alls good now. Ive been trying to stay with a book for sometime now but just haven't been able to do much about that. Tried to finish Anna Karenina for a long time now and still haven't moved on much.

Schwarzes Stern

Behemoth – Demigod, at times reminded me of Morbid Angel but with more screeching vocals. Overall very listenable black metal, even though blacks not really my kinda thing)

Vader – Art of War / Impressions in Blood, This is 12 minutes of intense blast beats, riffs, solos, bass, screaming to give your ears some satisfaction. As always, vader have maintained their usual sound (somewhat monotonous) but still with immense satisfaction guaranteed. Impressions…….is also of the same angst, but I think 12 minutes of art…is better than 12 minutes of impressions……..

Schwarzes Stern, it seems shines for me no longer. All of a sudden there is nothing. I don’t even know hat happened. I guess I had seen it coming from the beginning itself but it would turn out so abrupt, I had no clue. Guess the curse, still hasn’t gone away. No matter how hard I try to justify everything and try not to let it go. It just seems to find its way to just bring everything into ruins. I still haven’t been able to find the real culprit in all the cases I have encountered it. No amount of pleading, begging, explaining, lamenting or even crying can make any thing better. It’s just a sad state of things. How I wished this one wouldn’t just poof away but to no avail it seems was totally out of my hands after all. I don’t know what I have done to deserve all this but I guess I must have committed something so heinous that I have been paying for it ever since. All I ever wanted was an “Ohr”, for my “Geschichten”. From the beginning itself everything was short lived. Everything was a lie.

Zuviel Liebe kann dich töten


am starting to blog from today, dont know the frequency or what im going to blog about but lets see what happens. was just listening to oomph! and pretty neat album, not as i would have wanted it to be but still , listenable. also, checked out apocalyptica and opeth as well, was expecting more prog. metal but turned out like rock, guess i got the wrong album. anyways, also had the mastodon's album but that didnt play, schade! my minds gone blank.

too much of love can kill you.
