I Didn’t Visit The Colombo Motor Show 2011

Surprise, Surprise!  There is a Convention/Exhibition/Show (call it whatever) here in Sri Lanka which I never missed since its inception; The Colombo Motor Show. This year however I didn’t go… though I had time at hand. Being a Motor Vehicle Enthusiast (call me a “Petrolhead” if you will) this baffled me. Have I lost interest in the enthusiasm? It’s not that… I answered myself. It’s just that the Show is all boring… it’s the same thing each year, every year. No wonder I didn’t went.

The Colombo Motor Show is a great concept. It caters to a minority of Sri Lankans who actually care about cool cars and the culture associated with them. It was a good idea at first and I certainly enjoyed looking at cars which I can’t buy… yet. However, in the recent years, I don’t see them bringing in new cars that add a value to the show. Yes, I know they brought a Porsche Panamera Hybrid S… I see it every morning when I’m going to work and every evening coming back from work… I live near the Porsche Center of Sri Lanka, darn-tootin! But that’s not the point. Why can’t they do something unique for the show? I see my friends posting pics from this year's show… it’s cool that they had fun… but it was evident enough that it’s the same show from last year save a few for one or two new cars.

So, buck-up organizers… I want to see the next year’s exhibition,  I want to see an exhibition fitting enough to the said year, not the previous year’s one.

For, I Can't Help Falling In Love With You...

This song is buzzing in my head suddenly. I might as well get it out…

Wise men say only fools rush in
But I can't help falling in love with you
Shall I stay, would it be a sin
If I can't help falling in love with you

Like a river flows surely to the sea Darling, so it goes
Some things are meant to be
Take my hand, take my whole life too
For I can't help falling in love with you

Like a river flows surely to the sea
Darling, so it goes
Some things are meant to be

Take my hand, take my whole life too
For I can't help falling in love with you
For I can't help falling in love with you

 

 

 

 

Jobless Apple

I disagree with Apple over its market dominance in many ways than one (or should I say “iDisagree”). Never-the-less Apple had one of the most brilliant minds born to this century; Steve Jobs.

It was announced today that Mr. Jobs is resigning. Can Apple Inc. survive without Steve? That is the question.

Whenever Steve walked onto a stage, he revolutionizes “Gadgets”. Whether it’s the introduction of the iPod (which revolutionized the MP3 player) to the introduction of the iPad (which revolutionized the Tablet PC), he always maintained the charisma of an unstoppable inventor; a thinker like no one else.

I cannot see a Computer Industry without Steve. He’s the one who popularized the iPhone, leading the way to a new dawn of Smartphones.  He’s the guy who turned Geeks/Nerds into super cool hippies. He’s the one who changed the way girls thought of the boys; “Smart is the new sexy”. As a Geek/Nerd, you have my gratitude Mr. Jobs. Sure, I love Android, sure I love Nokia, sure I love Asus… but you got to hand it over to Steve Jobs, the guy’s got style.

Steve Jobs is an icon (Or should I say… an iCon). But when he said “I Quit” (Yes, yes. I know, I know… he said “iQuit”) Apple just got bitten hard (pun intended).

Let’s see Apple, let’s see what you’ve got up your sleeve. Apple without Steve is like a… Ooh, I can’t tell it here can I? You guys guess!

...Will It Not?

We took a chance, We took a shot

We don’t want to be people who we are not

You let us go, we have forgot

You are really bad, but we are not

We’re sick and tired of your attitude

Even though we don’t show you

Look at what you’ve done to yourself… have you not?

In this twilight darkness

You sit alone in your apartment

Not even care in the world you forgot

But one day you will realize

With teardrops in your little eyes

What have you done to yourself… will it not?

...Little Baby!

We were once told
That one day we will hold
Written in letters gold
Somewhere near the fold

It may be a baby boy
But not an easy toy
It may be a baby girl
So beautiful as a pearl

Do take a good look
Our wonderful little book
With magic that we cook
No one never mistook

…The Stage

2 years back, a bespectacled black haired skinny boy stepped onto a stage to deliver his first presentation. Shunted aside and thrown out of his own project group not too long ago, he was determined to prove himself. And NO, the boy is not Harry Potter… He is me.

Here I am… 2 years later on the same stage along with three other people to do just the same. It wasn’t easy. We fought, we made mistakes, but more importantly we did what we do best… We stuck together. We had differences, we disagreed… but it was all part of a learning curve. We had fun, we shared joy, two of us even fell in love.

NIBM’s BSc Hall/Hall No. 14/Professor Harrison Hall… Call it whatever you want, but that was the hall we all stood together for a year. But where did those friendships went? Questions are asked but never to be answered.

So, there we were… Umesh, Chathu, Rasanka and Me… On a stage on our moment of truth.

“We already are what we are, and what we are… is beautiful, strong enough, good enough and bright enough!”
