Wow. It’s been a while.
I’m happy to let you know that I’m alive and well. I hope you’re alive and well too.
That’s pleasantries for ya. Now back to business.
Usually whenever I have an exam, I get super-addicted to non-exam related stuff. This time it was YouTube. Yes, I know, I thought I couldn’t get more addicted to YouTube, but turns out I was wrong! 
I’m actually going to do a post soon about YouTube. Anticipate that. (Like you keep anticipating most of the things I’ve promised to do on this blog.)
I figure this blog post is going to be just general how-my-life’s-been kinda thing. Feel free to let your mind wander for the rest of the post if you find my life excruciatingly boring. Then again, how dare you!
I’m not going to talk about my exams (even though they went reasonably well). Instead I’m going to talk about stuff I found online while surfing the web as usual. Hope you find them interesting 
. Or not.
Oh, This is exciting. They’ve released two more new trailers for A Game of Thrones and also an 11-minute video titled Inside Game of Thrones. The show is going to premier on 17th April on HBO, and I’m extremely excited because not only am I a huge George R. R. Martin fan, I’m also a huge George R. R. Martin fan . You should seriously watch this series, and also read the books, they’re amazing, I tell you! And have I ever lied to you? Wait. Don’t answer that.
OK, OK, here’s probably my favourite of the teasers:
My second favourite:
Finally, the 11-minute video. Watch. It.
Aaaah, the excitement.
Now, I’’m also a big fan of YouTube channel Vihart. Here’s one of my favourite videos by her. It’s about Möbius strips, and it’s very very creative. Double thumbs up. Check it out too:
I found lots of other interesting stuff online, but I don’t want to overload this page with links but this web page was featured on Yahoo, and I found it hilarious. Check out 10 illegal baby names. It’s amazing what some parents want to name their kids. Thank God some of these names are illegal, I can imagine the kind of things some of these kids could’ve experienced in schools if the parents had had their way!
I started listening to some music as soon as I came home after the exams. It’s been a while since I had a chance to listen to music. Aaah, for some reason, I was listening to "Rambari by Lahiru Perera, and it brought back all sorts of memories of being in crowded buses and listening to Sri FM and that endless (and extremely annoying at times) Saagaraya se Aadarei radio drama. Chirist, I miss Sri Lanka. 
Well here’s the video, which I think is an EPIC fail, considering the lyrics, which are brilliant. I mean, I wanted to see the guys at a cyver kade tapping on tables and singing this song. I wanted to see fat merchants with beelte-leaf stained teeth in village shops. I really wanted to see a leaking roof, and some scrawny kids sitting inches away, their eyes glued to a black-and-white TV watching a John Cena wrestling match. This goes on to show how over-commercialized Sri Lankan music has become. I mean, somewhere down the line, some producer guy had decided that this is the video they should come up with, which doesn’t relate to the song at all. Bad. Very bad. Oh well… sigh.
I just finished watching the YouTube project Life in a Day, which is a documentary made from various people’s video recordings from 24th July 2010. It’s really interesting because the videos come from all corners of the world. I was pretty inspired by it. Maybe I’ll do a blog post about that…
But that has to wait. I’m tired of typing this already. I need to go and get some well-deserved rest. So until next time, good-bye! And if you think you like this blog (you do? Wow!) subscribe!!!
