Note to self: check the status of the flight.
I'm neurotic when it comes to travel. I hope I score a nice aisle seat with a cute guy beside me. I have always been a nervous flyer. This time I'm alot more jumpy and anxious as it's the first time on my own. I seem like I'm not bothered but I keep an eye out for all of the world's evils.
Xanax, anyone?
Days Until I Fly To Dimapur: 1
People Left on Shopping List*: 50
*Number is a minimum and subject to change.
A couple more hours until I'm out of this place! I have compiled a list of ten things I hope to accomplish before I return to B'lore at the end of the month:
1. Go for the movie 'Quantum of Solace' with some new friends.
2. Dine on smoked bacon, smoked bacon, smoked bacon!
3. Travel safely on two non-delayed, hopefully non-nauseating and non-painful flights from here to Dimapur via Kolkata.
4. Meet my niece –Abigail.
5. Visit my friends from college, Zenith, Ralli and Ela.
7. Meet an old friend and recently made DCP officer of Dimapur.
8. Get drunk.
9. Get lots of shopping done and visit places of interest.
10. Go for a local concert.
OMG, TGIF, welcome at last to another artist showcased here on EC. I'd never have heard of this radiant artist if not for Imcha. The name is Senti Toy.
At first listen I loved it and that prompted me to take a trip through this article written on her here.
Her sound reminds me of a lot of different and equally diverse influences and for the first hour or so I found myself unable to accurately put into words what I was hearing.
I guess you could say this is a serious example of the new wave of genre blurring musical acts (and really, what's a genre today? Everything is broken off from multiple patterns. Even MySpace has you list the three- yeah, you heard- three genres your band's music fits into.)
So the track below is by Naga artist, Senti Toy called 'How Many Stories Do You Read on My Face' and it's my new favorite song because it sounds so very intricate and oriental. After this track ended, my head mentally ticked off and said "ok, that's going online," because it easily makes for one of the best songs I have heard in a long time.
I'll shut up now so you can listen more closely to 'How Many Stories Do You Read on My Face' by Senti Toy. Happy weekend, everyone. I shall try to post from Nagaland if I am able to.
I'll miss you almost as much as you'll miss me.
