mm, double chocolate goodness..
i love this song so much, is it any surprise that it's set to raag megh? i don't think so. i remember when i discovered mhb thanks to some good buddies last summer. sampooran and nin's with teeth were pretty much the only two albums i listened to all summer. i know, weird combination but oboy, i was so satisfied. javed bashir's vocals are just..incomparable. all the raagas mesh so perfectly with mekaal's guitar skills, the multi-percussion and of course the flute! o, the flute. such a wonderful conglomeration of raaga, ghazal and western dhuns. mmm.

i made a slight miscalculation this morning and didn't catch the train i was supposed to. so i arrived in burlington an hour late for my dance class. it was alright though, worked a bit more on shankaravaran with didi before bhai launched into a 2 hour rehearsal for ARJUN. this first scene's pretty intricate, i'm loving it so far. i just hope i remember everything because we did A LOT.
came home and did..what? o yes, before watching the finale of house, i baked a dozen double chocolate muffins. they turned out absolutely perfect. i had 2 with a cold glass of 3.25% milk, the first time in my whole life that i've drunk plain milk willingly! hehe. yummy combo.

as for the finale, OMG! i was freaking out during most of the episode because of that fat guy. i mean i hate watching, reading or hearing anything to do with the tongue or the eye and this guy had problems with both! gah! i started panicking near the very end because i didn't know if..well i don't wanna spoil things but y'know the second-last scene when house ___. overall i was pretty satisfied though, thank gawd.
a gross thing happened today while i was walking back from the supermarket. a bug got stuck on my upper lip because of my sticky lipgloss. i rubbed it off and spat a few times, but man EW. at least it was one of those tiny bugs and not something big and more repulsive. i probably ate a bunch while walking though, hmf.
it's 3:15am but i'm not sleepy at all. i wonder if anything good is on tv, maybe i could watch a movie until 6am or so? or i could finish reading leelaboti, it's almost done. time to jet. i started the day with this album, i'm ending the day with it too. perfect.
