Sabash! Musical Stylings in Chennai…
» ‎ Read entry @ Aworan's Ak-isms & Pixs..

Ok, so it’s day something or the other in Chennai, India, and so far I have learned a couple of things: I will never get used to the taste of Idli. I have renewed my passion of culinary disdain towards Daal (Lentil). Trying to reason with a Police Officer at 12 midnight on Christmas day is trying to [...]

WLTM….in Chennai. (Day 3)
» ‎ Read entry @ Aworan's Ak-isms & Pixs..

I’ve just had ‘The Hindu’ Newspaper delivered to my hotel room and out of curiosity, I decided to check the Matrimonial pages, because I’ve was told that you’d find the funniest ‘chat-up’ lines. Nothing funny about that, I can tell you. In the West, the ad would normally go along the lines of: ‘Single female [...]

It’s a black guy in Chennai! Day 1
» ‎ Read entry @ Aworan's Ak-isms & Pixs..

This isn’t my first time in South India, but whenever I come into Chennai, I just get stares. Now, I’m not talking about the normal one quick stare and move on. No, I’m talking about the stop and stare, and then stare again. Of course, it’s because I’m a black dude. Let’s not forget the [...]

Belated London Jazz Festival 2008 Pictures.
» ‎ Read entry @ Aworan's Ak-isms & Pixs..

Yes, I should have put this up ages ago. Yes, the London Jazz Festival 2008 ended ages ago, and yes: I should know better. I have only one thing to say in my defence: nothing! That, and I was away for a bit. A very impressive line up this year, and as always, you can’t [...]

El camino recto en Cuba!!
» ‎ Read entry @ Aworan's Ak-isms & Pixs..

I’m tired. I’m so, so tired. It’s like I need to go on holiday, which is a joke considering I only just got back from a 12 day road trip in Cuba. It must be the jet lag playing tricks on me. So, here’s a map to give you an idea of the journey me & [...]

How NOT to Chat up a woman, and Nitin Sawhney at the BBC Electric Proms 2008 Pictures
» ‎ Read entry @ Aworan's Ak-isms & Pixs..

In life, there is an art to everything. No matter how trivial or important a situation is, there’s always an art that we have to take the time to fine tune to our advantage. And so yesterday night, the missus and I saw while on a late night train home, a classic example on how not [...]

‘Africa Now’ at the Barbican
» ‎ Read entry @ Aworan's Ak-isms & Pixs..

Pax, pilgrims, I honestly don’t believe that a couple of days can truly showcase the rich diversity of music that comes out of Africa. A couple of days ago at Koko, London, there was the ‘Africa Express’ show, a prelude to what to expect at the Barbican’s ‘Africa Now’ gig yesterday night. Granted, it wasn’t [...]

Mens sana in corpore sano
» ‎ Read entry @ Aworan's Ak-isms & Pixs..

‘A sound mind in a sound body’- that’s the English translation of the above latin title. I’ve just found out via the BBC website that today is World Mental Health Day. So, to celebrate sanity of the mind, with all the craziness that’s going on in the world at the moment, (as always have been [...]

The Art of Smiling :-)
» ‎ Read entry @ Aworan's Ak-isms & Pixs..

Pax Vobiscum, pilgrims! So, there I was, thinking I was getting back to blogging, and what happens? Yours Truly ends up with an almighty flu bug. A word to the wise: if you have holidays, use them wisely. Your body does need rest and if you push it too hard, you’ll end up feeling the pain. So, [...]

From G to Gym Class Heroes.
» ‎ Read entry @ Aworan's Ak-isms & Pixs..

What would possess a man, woman or child over a specific height, to voluntarily strap themselves into a rocket contraption just to experience a thrill orgasm/ultimate rush? So I find myself pondering over this thought while being pinned down by the G-Force from the Stealth Ride at Thorpe Park. Oh, and just in case you’re [...]
