first day of class...
Sokaley class holo na... Idiot er moto sharp 9tar somoy class bairey dharna diye bosey chilam
Thinking chair e boshey bose ei kobita gulo likhlam... class at 1:45....
Breeze of morning 9
Today it tastes just like wine
My mind is all with thoughts
Of the illusion in motion
And the light that shines through
The nettle of these leaves
The scent of this breeze
That tingles with early winter chills
The peahen that has eyed its love
And through it....
Floats my heart my soul
Waiting on and on.......
.........................................................
Within these endless thoughts
That my mind meanders through
Not once thinking of a thought
Void of a space and time
That melts on the skin
With the touch of a cold breeze
From the near distant winter
Today I sit
Where I once sat
To think
To remember and forget
To cry and wanting to scream
When the breeze wiped my tears
And brought time to overcome fears
A time of a year long
Now long gone
Before I saw it go by
Through my mind, my body
My thoughts that never cease....
....................................................
Winter morning
Another yearning
If sunbeams fell
On my fate and tell
When leaves fall
And peahens call
When the wind feel my hair
And in it my mind sees no "snare"
Why does it feel am in love
With no one nowhere
Yet everyone everywhere
Say I am high
And even I cannot deny
And each day I pray for this to stay
In this life and after......
.....................................................
I think I already have a crush on him...he he he... hadnt he been married I wud have tried my luck.....ha ha ha...
He is simple amazing- an excellent speaker and an amazing teacher....
Saw two short films

Girni- Marathi
Really nice..
In half a days class he made me "see" films better...
Tomm's assignment- have to make a poster on one of these films...
He asked us to write about one film we really have disliked.. My choice was-Antarmahal by Rituporno Ghosh -ritu porno bolei je bhalo boltey hobey... nah-am entitled to my opinion..... :-)..500words...
Ratey poster banabo... am lending paints from kiddos....

Uni bolen amaderr chari dikey ja dekhi -everything talks, everything has a story in it..

Poster ta joma dewar por prothom poster tao peye gelam..
Ki rag dhorey bolo.....
today was
La pisseu-french... about a woman who is desperate to pee...
Charlie Chaplin’s- the easy street
And a documentary - the unknown Chaplin... this man was a genius... no one can be him. Believe me... he is superhuman....
I had read the autobiography before... Purota jodio porini... Akta part e giye bhishon boring legechilo..
But his early life is what one should know about I guess. Now I can justify the emotions that he put in the films..Prochondo koshto korechen oi lokta...
you cant even imagine how he grew up.. That helpless feeling...to see ones mother slowly turning mad
there's a part where he writes-" when fate is making destiny, it heeds niether pity nor justice" so true... I can see it through my own life...
aajo justice expect korina..Aar pity nijer opor o nei...though some amount of fear lingers on...janina kobey jabey.......

Mr. gupta... Wen he speaks leaves no space for speaking... He just makes u see the world in a different way...
You start seeing things around you the way they never were. You retrospect their occurence and reason out events...
He, wen speaks adds to the voice of conscience...
It is truly a great great great opportunity to hear him speak- am lucky I should say...
That....
Life exciting na holey korey nao...
Am sure if u sit for a few moments watching the sun set and take a deep breath.. thats more than exciting...
Bhalo theko...
