I find myself wondering why all good things come to and end at this precise moment.
Ugh, anyhow, I'll post something more interesting later.

Anticipation
I wake up and I find myself realizing that it’s another early morning, another day closer to being with you again.
Seventeen days might seem like long, but I try to look on the upside of the situation and realize it could have been longer.
It’s been almost 2 months now since I last felt your touch, held your hand or kissed your lips and that time feels like an eternity, I cannot wait to be right there beside you again, feeling your every inch and every breath.
You’ve really given me all I could ever ask for, you give me all the support in doing anything I want and in the bargain end up motivating me hugely as well in the same aspect, you give me all the love and care I could ever need, you make me feel like I could never live my life without you there in it, I can never imagine coming home and not picking up the phone and yours being the very first voice I hear or not being able to tell you I love you and things like that… My life would be so very incomplete without you in it.
Anyway, I do hope that the days begin to go by faster than they currently are and then I truly do wish time stops when I’m with you so that I never have to be without you again….

Happy Women's Day, Nivy Baby!
To The Woman That I Love,
I just want to say thank you for coming into my life and giving me all that I could really ask for.
Ever since the very first time I heard your voice on the phone that day, I knew you were the one.
You’ve injected so much love into my soul and given my life so much meaning.
Your gorgeous, every inch of you is, your skin feels like the petals from a rose, your lips feel like the sweetest strawberry.
Those three words that you’ve told me so many times have never failed to brighten up my life.
Your name, face and every thing that goes with you is forever imprinted on my heart, body & soul.
Would you always be my woman ?
Would you marry me right now ?

The 08' F1 Season Preview
The 2008 Formula One Season Preview
With the 2008 F1 season just a bit over two weeks away, the tension is slowly starting to build on both the teams and drivers to either continue their 2007 form or build on it for the want of a more successful campaign in 2008. It does seem like the shortest winter break as well considering all the scenarios that played out through the 2007 season and even after it was over like the spy saga which was probably one of the things that will forever be remembered. Also new to this coming season is the lack of electronic aids like traction and launch control on the cars and also the fact that they will be all using a standard ECU which should theoretically separate the men from the boys. Also new to this season is the edition of the Singaporean GP which will be held under the flood lights, and also be the first ever F1 race held in the night.
This is how the teams and drivers stack up for the 2008 season:
Scuderia Ferrari
Reigning drivers and constructers champions will be looking to build upon their ultra successful end of the 2007 season which was also the first one in over 10 years for the team without a clear number one driver and also other key personnel in the team. After having won 8 out of 10 of the last constructers titles and 7 out of the last 10 drivers titles it’s very clear to the note that the prancing horse will be a key contender the out come of this season. For the second year in succession Kimi Raikkonen will be joined by Felipe Massa and it’s looking likely for the duo to stay put for at least till the end of the 2009 season, Kimi will clearly have no intention of letting go of his champion status this year whilst Felipe will clearly want to be champion this year as well after a solid showing for the team in the last 2 seasons.
1) Kimi Raikkonen [Championship Titles : 1 (2007)]
2) Felipe Massa
BMW Sauber F1
Runners up last season by default after McLaren were excluded from the championship will definitely be looking to close up on that elusive gap between the big two this season after showing solid form in 2007 by taking a few podiums and also keeping the big two forces in current day formula one on their toes at a couple of races. This season it’s clear to see that the team means business after stating that they want to build on last season and effectively challenge for wins on a regular basis. It’s once again stat quo on the driver front with Nick Heidfeld teaming up with Robert Kubica and the latter will clearly have to shine this season if he wants to finally step out of Nick’s shadow, whilst Nick would clearly want to have another solid season and hopefully a first victory as well.
3) Nick Heidfeld
4) Robert Kubica
ING Renault
After a very lackluster and mediocre showing by the team who managed to stop Ferrari from their run of consecutive titles by doing the double in 2005 & 2006 with Fernando Alonso & Giancarlo Fisichella back then, 2007 was a dismal season for the Renault team and took to the podium only once with Heikki Kovaleinen. But in any case, that’s all history now and the team should have a renewed hope in challenging for this seasons titles once again with Fernando Alonso once again behind the wheel and new boy Nelson Piquet Jr. joining him in the other car. Will Renault deliver the goods this season now that they’ve got their former 2 time champion back with them? Only time will tell.
5) Fernando Alonso [Championship Titles : 2 (2005,2006)]
6) Nelson Piquet Jr.
Williams Toyota
Williams, probably one of the most improved teams in the 2007 season after quite a good come back from a dismal 2006 campaign in which they spent pretty much the entire season nearer to the back of the pack will be looking to build on their 2007 form and should very well be capable of doing so with the teams rich Formula history. The team have clearly looked quick out of the box in the recent tests and will once again have Nico Rosberg who would be partnered by another relatively rookie driver Kazuki Nakajima, Nico clearly proved his talent in 2007 after clearly beating Alex Wurz for pretty much the entire season and also completely outpacing current team mate Kazuki Nakajima in his debut in the final race of the season. This could be a make or break season for the team.
7) Nico Rosberg
8) Kazuki Nakajima
Red Bull Renault
Red Bull are certainly looking to break out of the midfield this season and possibly enjoy a more reliable ride to the finish as well, the team faired average at best for most of last season and will once again depend upon two experienced drivers in 13 time grand prix winner David Coulthard and Mark Webber, both drivers clearly have experience on their side by sadly time will not be and will clearly need to step up this season and deliver the goods.
9) David Coulthard
10) Mark Webber
Panasonic Toyota
Toyota are another team like Red Bull that clearly needs to break out of the midfield pack this season, after suffering a rather mediocre time since their debut into the sport in 2002, the team has sadly not looked like a contending force in any of the seasons since them with their biggest achievement being named best of the rest in 2005. With Ralf Schumacher being shown the door at the end of a torrid 2007 season, the team will rely on old and new this season with grand prix winner Jarno Trulli being joined by the reigning GP2 champion & former Jordan Grand Prix Timo Glock who did impress once before just enough to be noticed back with Jordan F1 in the 2004 season. This season could prove vital to the company’s commitment on their ongoing Formula 1 project.
11) Jarno Trulli
12) Timo Glock
Scuderia Toro Rosso Ferrari
Red Bull’s satellite team clearly made heads turn at the end of last season with young gun Sebastian Vettel at the wheel who nearly challenged for the win at the torrentially wet Japanese GP and a week later challenged for the podium at the wet/dry Chinese GP, the team could very well shake up things with the main Red Bull team this season and will clearly have no intention of doing other wise after matching them or beating them on pace in the last 3-4 GP’s last season, and their driver line up seems like their strongest as well with Sebastian Vettel being retained and 4 time IRL champion Sebastien Bourdais joining up with his this season.
14) Sebastien Bourdais
15) Sebastian Vettel
Honda F1
After a strong and solid showing in 2006 where the team took their first GP win, Honda were nothing short of horrifying in 2007 after struggling to make the top 16 in qualifying on many occasions and coming away with just a handful of points courtesy of Jenson Button whilst their other driver and former Ferrari GP winner Rubens Barrichello came away with none, this season will hopefully be an uphill season for the team after taking on the services of former Ferrari technical director Ross Brawn. The drivers and the team will be pushing hard this season and probably wouldn’t disappoint either. Rubens Barrichello could go on to be the most experienced ever formula one driver this season on another note.
16) Jenson Button
17) Rubens Barrichello
Super Aguri Honda
The Super Aguri team will be looking to build on a rather strong 2007 season after coming seriously close to beating their parent team Honda and being a seriously threat to them all season despite facing many financial problems throughout the season, the team are yet to confirm a #2 driver for the 2008 season but it’s most likely to be a repeat of last seasons duo once again with Takuma Sato being partnered by Anthony Davidson, both drivers showed promise last season and Takuma looked much more refined and mature as well. The team will be raring with all cylinders firing this season in order to once again move up the order.
18) Takuma Sato
19) Anthony Davidson (?)
Force India F1 Ferrari
The Force India F1 team has a lot of national pride resting on its shoulders and will be determent to not disappoint, the team having gone through 4 name changes in the last 4 seasons will be looking for much needed continuity. Despite all the speculation of an Indian driver being quite easily handed a drive or perhaps even both seats in the team, it was to much surprise that the team decided to retain Adrian Sutil and partner him with Giancarlo Fisichella for the season ahead. Sutil will be keen on outpacing Fisichella this season whilst Fisichella would be keen on proving his mettle after being decimated by 2 young gun drivers in the last 3 seasons. The team would definitely be looking at taking some points finishes this season and would want nothing less.
20) Giancarlo Fisichella
21) Adrian Sutil
Vodafone McLaren Mercedes
After coming ever so close to taking the title for the first time in nearly 10 seasons last season McLaren Mercedes battled with plenty of controversies all the way through the 2007 season which ended up with the team being fined a hefty 100 million dollars and also being excluded from the constructers championship after being accused of stealing designs from rivals Ferrari, besides that the drivers also had many a issue with each other and that ended up with the early season fairy tale pairing of 2 times world champion Fernando Alonso and Lewis Hamilton in tatters by the end of the season, McLaren however parted ways with Alonso and retained Hamilton and partnered him up with Heikki Kovaleinen for this season and will once again be looking to be Ferrari’s main threat and hopefully stay out of the controversies and put the past behind them.
22) Lewis Hamilton
23) Heikki Kovaleinen

Good Mornin' March
It’s been a while since I wrote a proper blog now…
It seems like this year is somehow going as quickly by as last year did, I’m finding it rather hard to comprehend that we’re already in March, it feels like the new year was just yesterday, there are quite a couple of things that I’m looking forward to this month actually, like for starters, it’s going to be our 4th month together, I somehow find having this little monthly anniversary thing cute… Besides that the Formula 1 season kicks off in two weeks and the Moto GP season kicks off next week so at least I won’t find myself bored during the evening’s on the weekend (not that I’m bored right now either, but you get the drift)… And it seems like I hopefully (fingers crossed) will be done with my animation course by this month end.
As for the recent movies I’ve seen lately (which haven’t been many really), I’d have to say that I found Jumper to be a huge disappointment really, I honestly thought it would be a hell of a lot better than what it is, I believe that the trailer is actually a lot more entertaining than the movie itself, but never the less it’s at least watchable for a single time. Besides that I borrowed the Hitman DVD from a friend the other day and I actually found it to be quite a decent movie despite the fact that you get the feeling that it’s all been done before in previous movies in slightly different guises, it’s a good solid movie to watch a time or two, and contrary to what a few people have been saying that the movie isn’t brutal enough, I personally think it just depends on how you look at it really… In the end I found it satisfying enough.
As usual I cannot help but write a little something for my lovely Nivy,
I don’t know if she realizes this but at times she gives me so much of inspiration to do so many things that I find it just nothing short of unbelievable, I haven’t really found myself being so inspired by anyone or anything in the past. She’s given me probably more than I really deserve and need as well, She’s given me the feeling of being able to truly feel in myself that our relationship is really going to be the one that lasts forever… I can never really stop adoring her every inch and loving her all the time. Everything about her and everything she does is just so beautiful... I just wish there was some way i could keep her forever despite the fact that i know i can't right now...
Well, then… I’m done for now.
The End.
