Something New: Week 5 – Tennis
by Ranil on Aug.07, 2008, under Something New
Somewhere in Griffith Park a legend was reborn yesterday. This weeks something new finds me brushing off my childhood training and showing to the world, and by the world I mean my old friend Gohar, the awesomeness of my Tennis skills.
It is always a relief when someone comes up with a good idea for me to do implement for my Something New, even better when they choose to join in. With Gohar back in town from San Francisco and taking a mini-retirement her suggestion to play tennis with her was taken with great enthusiasm. So, borrowing a racket from a friend we headed out to Griffith Park to hit around a few balls.
An Ode To Boredom
by Ranil on Jul.14, 2008, under Life in Los Angeles
Boredom in the wrong hands can be a very dangerous thing. It may lead you to experience dizziness and feelings of inadequacy, not to mention a stupid affinity to punch immovable objects. It can cause constant refreshings of both Myspace and Facebook profiles looking for updates. It may also cause one to create a Plurk account and flood it with random musings of obscenity and histrionics. It can also be contagious, such as convincing your sister and your friend to also create Plurk accounts and fill it with obscenity and what not. Yes my friend, boredom is a dangerous thing. Fueled by caffeine it can stretch long into the night, way past a normal bed time.
