So for those of you who dont know my camera broke. It was quite a sad and frustrating story. It broke ON the way to the Galle Lit Fest. 110 kilometers out of Colombo it decided to stop working. Just when the pictures were starting to form in my head.
So this is a couple of pictures i took at the beach with my Nokia 5220 xpress music phone. Its got a 2 MPX camera which i at first doubted but it takes pretty decent pictures.

See for yourself

Captured Wild

2008-06-13T21:26:00.005+05:30

This is apparently a common bird but i hardly see it. Every Sunday this female Koel and her mate come to my garden to eat the snails. I always go after them with my camera but i can never get a good shot. Last Sunday i caught her just outside the bay window. She was being bothered by a crow who appeared to be wooing her.

Another frequent visitor to our household. This rat snake comes for our toads. The toads are the size of my feet (size11) and are quite docile creatures. This 8 foot snake came by and caught one of them. My mother feeling sorry for the toad let the dog loose which chased the snake away. Amazingly the toad survived after being...in that position.

St Josephs. Its such a nice school. The old buildings, the nice big gardens and the trees. Its quite a little paradise. Its hard to believe people actually schooled here. I've been used to going to a school that looks like a hospital where grass has been removed to be replaced by concrete.
This school is so different to us.

Grease Pole

2008-04-06T23:00:00.002+05:30

A traditional part of the Sinhalese and Tamil New year is the Grease Pole. The Pole is actually a coconut tree around 25-30 feet high. The whole pole is greased from top to bottom with a flag that sits happily on the top like a star on a Christmas tree. The game is for a team of 2 people to climb up that pole with no equipment on and grab that flag. They are allowed to wipe the grease with their hands. The normal strategy is for one person to do the wiping while the team mate supports him from under. Its quite a long game and its took about 4 hours to finish this one.

BloodShed

2008-04-06T22:46:00.003+05:30

In medieval times, while the men, husbands, sons, fathers go out to war. The people of Home would look to the sky for a sign or even hope.

Belief then states that when the sky goes red during war bloodshed has fallen. Whether it was for good or for worse i dont know.

This picture shows that there has been bloodshed and in this country, There always is.

Graffiti

2008-03-16T17:45:00.004+05:30

I came across this old building in Rajagiriya. It was the old Radio Electrons and Electro Plastics Ltd. This building has been burnt down or demolished or destroyed or god knows but this building is abandoned.
A popular hangout for drug addicts and hookers what intrigued me was not the sex or the drugs it was the graffiti.
This is not the normal graffiti you see on the road such as "Umi 3D" or "A/L batch of 2004" this is proper graffiti the ones you normally see on TV on some New York Subway.

From seeing their work i would really like to meet the people who did all of this. Especially the person who drew the 2nd one which is my favourite :)

Rose Tinted View 3 | The Lone Guitarist

2007-12-03T21:24:00.000+05:30

From as long as I've known him he has always stuck by my side. Bringing him home on Fridays after prayers giving him lunch and some time where we talked about the different sides to our life stories. My mother referred him to be her "second son" due to his frequent visits. I was even compared to him.

His guitar talent really caught on everywhere he went. The times we jammed at home just us and the guitar. I remember when his guitar broke. It was like a little part of him died. he mourned it but that didn't stop him, he still did what he did best.
I remember the trouble he used to get into. All the dumb shit we did in school, i was always called to get him out of trouble.

Like every story there is always girl. She was your cocaine. Something that kept you high and happy and something that kept you asleep at night. She helped you through a lot of hard times, the times when i wasn't there.

Every time you leave home i watch him walk down the road to the bus halt. His mind set on something, anything Guitar on his back hes ready to take on the world. The Lone Guitarist.

Really?

Maybe its me, Maybe its you. but i seem to notice you around alot more than normal. You catch my eye. Give me a smile a look at times you even stop to say hello. buts thats all.
I missed the old days when we were close where we would talk on and on about unnecessary things such as which melts faster butter or margarine. The side comments on the teachers as we sat side by side through boring lessons. After the saying of something lame or funny we would look for each others eyes to catch and stare at each other for a split second before bursting out laughing.

The words that i word say wrong and how you would bug me by saying it over and over again.
Your never ending sermons on Anti - Smoking and Drinking that you used to give and the usual speech "you think your so cool cause you go clubbing" It was annoying but i new it was because you cared. Or that you hated what i did. I respect your independence and daring to wade the waters alone where i cannot tread.

All the past times i gave away, lost all of it in one night where the i left you for someone else.. I didnt realize until next morning by then it was too late. If only you were abit more forward. All i want to say is.... Im Sorry

The Rose Tinted View 1 | The Critic across the table

2007-10-22T00:22:00.001+05:30

I have decided to post my day to day situations...It mainly consists of people who are and have been in my life.

So there i was. Pilawoos on my own. sitting at my usual table waiting for my food to come. Sipping on my ice milo i needed someone to talk to. life, rose tinted or not was not very good these days. then i thought im at pilawoos! a good friend of mine just lives close by. taking out my phone, stealing a glance at my Megan Fox wallpaper i dial 011 2 372 917 his name does not show on the screen. somethings wrong i thought so i canceled the call and went through my contact list. his name did not exist. then it struck me.
this friend of mine was here anymore. he wont be there to call over to pilawoos, to question my judgment on the food, to tell me that McDonalds is only across the road where they serve food that will not...kill me ? it was quite a ride but i didnt care. until i sat alone at pilawoos searching in the "A" directory on my phone....wondering where you are...
