Making memories

That moment when Arihant rushes into the room, pulls an earphone from my ear, places it into his own...and smiles back at me. He then kindly places it back into my ear, though it doesn't quite fit. I readjust. He playfully goes through the motion repeatedly until boredom hits and he finally rushes out with renewed vigor. It completely ruins my listening but gives me something priceless in return- a moment that will drift into one of countless fond memories. I must have annoyed my father in ways not very different, in times not very ancient. I'm sure he didn't mind

Arihant pronounces some difficult names

It took me 23 years to hear Tanya in full-blown glory

I heard Dexter Gordon’s Tanya for the first time 23 years ago. I was hooked. I’m hearing it again as I write this post, but this time on my just-arrived Monoprice headphones. Tanya never sounded this good. I wish there were audio enthusiasts around me with whom I could share my enthusiasm. Dad?

I have a Nexus 7. It's great but I'm not convinced one needs a tablet if a decent smartphone is available. My smartphone is really smart. It outsmarted me into believing that it was actually usable when in fact it's utterly worthless. It's phones like the Huawei Blaze that give Android a bad reputation.

Office

I've had to spend the usual £30+ to needlessly come to office today as my home Internet connection broke yet again yesterday. Loving the solitude though.

I'm a musician who never learned to play

I never had the patience to endure Beethoven's 9th Symphony. It changed yesterday. It was probably one of the most beautiful things I ever heard in my life. I've heard of meditation doing great things to the mind. Well, it can't be any better than drowning to Beethoven's music.
