01. Radio Mirchi. What happened to you? I used to be a radio addict. Every day after school I'd come home and have lunch while listening to that "Kho Kho Patil" show. Then came the era of overly remixed songs which were good for a one time listen. Then came the era of Himesh R songs and bad RJ's. I long for RJ's like Karma and Mandy who were fun and didn't subject the listeners to cheesy rants and remotely creative rhymes.
Now is the era of advertisements and bad jingles. Why so many???? *headdesk*
And why does every song have to start with 'Radio Mirchi...' sung with the tune? It just spoils the whole experience.
You used to be a nice thing, too good to be true. And now your're crap just like everything mainstream.
02. I get usually have dreamless sleep but I used to have a lot of dreams about snakes. Here's how it is:
I'm asleep and I feel something curling around my foot. I wake up and see one slithering on my blanket. I quickly jump up and get out of bed only to find that there are 2-3 snakes along my bed. I somehow get out of my room and run downstairs and find snakes everywhere.
The rest is all blurry. I was watching a show on NatGeo about snakes the other day and this topic came up. My friend told me it's good luck. I don't usually believe in reverse logic of this sort but I thought I'd check out it's interpretations and I found interesting stuff. (taken from some site that I don't want to visit again)
Snakes as Fear Symbols
Given that most people do not have firsthand snake experience snakes appearing in dreams can often symbolize a fear of the unknown. They can point to a deep seated anxiety that something isn't right or a nagging feeling that something is waiting for them, something bad, like a snake in the grass. Is there something going on in your life that you are afraid of doing simply because you've never done it before?
Snakes as Symbols of Wisdom
While the unknown factor of snakes can engender fear, it may also give rise to feelings of intrigue. Some people and cultures see snakes as exotic and possessing hidden wisdom. This is partly due to their mysterious nature and partly due to one of a snake's more prominent features: it's tongue. In Chinese astrology people born under the sign of the snake are considered extremely wise, sensual, and diplomatic--they have an ease of tongue which makes them able to navigate sticky situations. If a snake appears in your dream it may actually be there using its tongue to impart wisdom that may be life altering--which brings us to...
Snakes as Symbols of Transformation
The ouroboros is one of the more famous snake-transformation symbols. In it, a snake can be seen biting it's own tail, revealing to us the cyclical nature of life. See the link below for more information on this fascinating symbol.
Okay... now that's just worrying. Just to prove what a nerd I am, when I was typing 'dreams about snakes' in the search box, I accidently typed 'dreams about snapes'. How I wish I would dream about Snape more often. :)
I've read 300 pages of 'Let Us C' today. I never thought I'd say this but if someone even mentions 'a pointer' I'll go crazy.
