Rossdale, Exams...

Who remembers Gavin Rossdale? That single Adrenaline shook pretty much all my friends I remember, they were totally in love with that song for quite a while. For those of you who don't know, Rossdale is now part of a band called "Institute". Sexy. They're quite good, they released an album quite a while back, and I was just listening to it today, and I still am in fact. I recommend that you guys get it, they could be categorized as Rock / Alternative Rock. Bush, Cold, Taproot, Staind, they're a couple of similar bands to Institute. We all know that Gavin Rossdale has one heck of a voice, and the band members have enough talent to back it up, no worries. And in case you guys don't know, Gavin Rossdale was the frontman of Bush as well. Institute was formed in 2004, and they released their first album "Distort Yourself" sometime in September 2005. Anyway that's pretty much it for the music for today, all I'm recommending for now.

I've got two days left now in my hometown, and then I'll be off to college again. One month of exams, it's the worst period ever. I can't believe the IInd Semester exams are already around the corner, I feel like I gave the stupid Ist Semester exams just yesterday and was almost thrown out of the examination hall! Gotta get working very soon now, all that I've done in the last week has been party and party more and go out with friends and chill around and not even touch a single book. It's going to be tough now! I'm not very good at a couple of subjects and topics. Sheesh. A bit of an unsettling thought, but I guess I'll have to deal with it when the time comes along. One more month of no internet, no computer and no keeping in touch with friends. One more month of going almost or pretty much underground with everything!

Leben, Schmerz, An Bewegend

My name is Avtar Ram Singh. Sounds like a really heavy name doesn't it? Sounds all powerful and overwhelming and all that. I'm not sure whether I live up to the expectations that my name holds, but that doesn't really matter here on the net. My blog, my corner on the web is a little space for me to let out some stuff. To share my experiences, to share what I know with everyone else and hopefully get some feedback from everyone every now and then. Over the last few days, I've realized a lot of about life. A lot about friends, about people, about myself. I've realized where people stand, where people should stand and where you should make people stand and how much importance you should give people and when you should give it to them. Sounds like a lot of realizing doesn't it? I'm sure when I wake up tomorrow morning I'm just going to view life the same, or maybe I won't. Well anyway, it's half past two at night, and it's way too late for me to get philosophical on my blog and I doubt a philosophical first post is what everyone is looking for! So I'll shut up for now, leave you with the lyrics of "Signal Fire" by Snow Patrol. :-)

The perfect words never crossed my mind,
Because there was nothing in there but you.
I felt every ounce of me screaming out,
But the sound was trapped deep in me.
All I wanted just sped right past me,
While I was rooted fast to the earth.
I could be stuck here for a thousand years,
Without your arms to drag me out.
