Out of Sight, Out of Mind...



"...How happy is the blameless vestal's lot!
The world forgetting, by the world forgot.
Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind!
Each pray'r accepted, and each wish resign'd;
Labour and rest, that equal periods keep;
"Obedient slumbers that can wake and weep;"
Desires compos'd, affections ever ev'n,
Tears that delight, and sighs that waft to Heav'n.
Grace shines around her with serenest beams,
And whisp'ring angels prompt her golden dreams.
For her th' unfading rose of Eden blooms,
And wings of seraphs shed divine perfumes,
For her the Spouse prepares the bridal ring,
For her white virgins hymeneals sing,
To sounds of heav'nly harps she dies away,
And melts in visions of eternal day."

- Eloisa to Abelard, Alexander Pope

Two semester are almost ever, and it seems the remaining are going to move through even faster. There's nothing much happening around, still have to resort to watching movies (if i have some free time), so as my 'official hiatus' from blogging for summer fun ;) is around the corner here is a trailer for an upcoming movie called FRONTIER(S) to get the buzz around.

I'm back and so is Hostel

This time around there's nothing much to write about the trip to Dhangadi, family visits and stuff nothing interesting or anything just very Hot!!! As usual Dhangadi was really scorching , thank god there were some showers that tried to dampen the day but that didnt help much either.Ah ! Kathmandu just feels so much cooler, just 34 degrees or so....thats nice. So everythings almost where i had left it , yesterday there was this earthquake scare started of by some future predicting baba, says a major earthquake's gonna strike somewhere between now and july 10, its foreseen by the baba that pakistan will sink, pokhara will disappear and 300 thousand people will die in kathmandu alone. That rumor did get inside the head of lots of kathamnduites , and yesterday there was tense panic in the air, lets see what happens.

In a more gory and bloody part saw last years sequel to Hostel, Hostel:2 today and boy was that some movie. Eli Roth it seems is trying to step up his game with every flick he makes. Comparing with Hostel 2, Cabin Fever(the first of his film) looks like a teen drama. Seriously, part 2 has everything a slasher movie freak requires and so much more. I would love to say what happens and who dies in what horrid manner but that would spoil all the fun . There are some scenes that remind me of Elizabeth Bathory, there is cannibalism, the usual decapitations and slashings and some of the worst torture imaginable that could be inflicted to a man. All in all this movie definitely is more gruesome then the first and oh yes, its storyline is somewhat broadened and kind of begging for a third installment. 4 out of 5.
