Covid-19 and its psychology

So its been almost 5 months and there seems to be no indication of things getting any better. Sitting in house without getting out to watch movies or grab a burger. Having to work 8 hours in the same settings contentiously for 5 months and still going on is not an easy thing. First couple of months I managed to make myself engaged by doing workouts and yoga @home. But it was possible only for the first two months , later you feel something is missing from your life. You dont feel like doing anything, especially if you are a software engineer and required to be in front of laptop around 8 to 9 hours for a day.
Watching many movies seem to be an option, however after watching countless movies I dont remember the names of the movies watched. Same with the series but little different , I managed to finish few series in a single sitting , I mean in a single day, yes, omnisent I have finished in a day. Some of them took couple of days , Snowpiercer. The first two months finished Two and A Half Men. Has it made any difference in keeping you going, yes a tiny bit, initially when you are too excited later you get exhausted with the same routine.
Is there a way not to get stressed or get free from feeling too much claustrophobic, I have tried too many ways like playing ludo, playing fortnite , Pubg and many more games in PlayStation but they made the stress much worse at least for me. Playing games might sound a best way to keep your mind occupied however its the after math that makes us more weak. I feel weak after playing games for hours. During normal time playing games seems to be fun and interesting but not now.
I am searching for the freedom I used have before. The time I just pick a hotel to want to eat my favorite cuisine. The time I just roam around shopping mall without any purpose, finally after getting tired just go to the food court and grab some delicious sizzlers or a soupy noodles. I miss those days. I hope they come back soon. In the mean time keep yourself safe.   

Been 10 Years !!!!!

I cant believe its been ten years !!! 

Well been a long time as work took its toll, will try to continue posting. 

Kadal Movie : Review

For last two weeks there has been many reviews about kadal. I have listened very very few positive reviews. Even though my friends told me its not like a Mani Rathnam's movie ! I was just waiting to watch the movie in spite of all the negative reviews on news papers and reviews on the net . But I always trusted Mani and I thoroughly enjoyed the movie ! some of them said it is like reading a novel and that is true.

From the beginning I always had this thought why Mani doesn't often do any movie based on people below poverty line. I always expected how is he going to handle and which subject he might choose if he makes a story about below poverty. My first comment about kadal is "the movie is about an emotional travel from the beginning to end". The characters are portrayed realistic. And of course the story has the two pillars Aravind swamy and Arjun. It is a movie about good and bad and who win finally. I heard a review that the movie is "dragging" and I could understand that, after watching all the masala movies for decades we expect scripts to be racy. If the script is not racy then we point out screen play is not good :) !  The movie has been screen played so that the emotion has been carefully taken forward with every scene. A scene when Tom tells Bea that he has made lots of sins and has killed many people she simply replies "don't do it here after !" good can be done any time and right away ! And we cant forget Aravind Swamy and Arjun ! both of them being senior actors have given their best ! Like they say beauty is in the eyes of beholder if we see all movies as entertainment movies then its time to think again. From my point of view the movie is inspirational. 

The Amazing Spider man coincidence

A big fan of spider man from our schooldays, there is this incidence that I wanted to share. Initially when the spider man released in 2002 I loved the movie so much that I thought if it is in 3d it could have been much more interesting. Coincidentally it did happen this month. The reboot of the spider man happened in 3d !! :) And I thoroughly enjoyed watching, didnt even blink my eyes.. but I missed the rain scene for sure !!

pH balanced is worth it

Getting bored of watching all the cosmetic commercials for ages I'm not a big fan of skin care and cosmetics. Personally don't believe in these adds which claim to do 'that and this..'. But out of curiosity the other day I wanted to try a shower gel which I have never tried before. And after weeks of using it I started liking it more than the usual soap. Because I felt that the shower gel was not too hard on skin unlike the soap which leaves the skin dry. And some shower gels are pH balanced i.e when used in hard water they will lather more neutralize hard minerals and leave your skin soft. Hence in any water you use the skin is always soft like it will be when you use soft water. I got myself the Harvard shower gel from marks and spencers which I really liked. Soon will let you know about my other experiments :)
