Mouthpiece

After about a month or two or even more of intellectual and self-confessed philosophical highs, the following things have influenced me in a way some bad company spoils a good boy :

1. American Pie movie series(especially Naked Mile), the DVD of which i got hold of last week.

2. Kaavya Vishwanathan’s book How Opal Mehta Got Kissed Got Wild And Got A Life.

AMERICAN PIE : Jaw-dropping stuff. High octane, adrenaline inducing entertainment. I kept complaining why can’t my college be like that, or rather why can’t i be like Stifler … until truth sank in. The two other movies i saw in between at PVR and Fame(Mithya and National Treasure) were nowhere near what Nked Mile did to me. Wow, but ssshhh.

HOW OPAL MEHTA…. : So materialistic, still so pleasing. Exactly what Robin Sharma won’t recommend. It was aggressively and confidently girlish in parts, but as long as it keeps me hooked i ain’t complaining. I’m still on with it…so cant say what message it contains, if it does. Nice crazy work Kaavya. Forget plagiarism; it takes guts and talent to even cheat.

Consequence: I’m sitting in a cafe, bunking histology practical.
