SOMETHING IS BETTER THAN .........

neoGe Posted 23 Aug.  in #Extreme #DukaSummer #Hitchhike
Alright ! That was a second thought. As I found a few hours free time today I got out on to the road and flaunted the 'hitchhiker's thumbs up sign towards the first vehicle,obliviously our motorcycle- came towards me. It is very rarely that we find a stranger here, that too riding a vehicle and this rider was known to me but he could not follow my sign language as I have mentioned in my earlier post, this is a rare phenomenon in the Maldives.
Hence I explained briefly what was my intention in i…

DREAMING OF A FREE RIDE.

neoGe Posted 22 Aug.  in #Extreme #DukaSummer #Hitchhike
Having a free ride and seeing an unknown destination- that was my intention when I selected 'hitchhiking' as one of my Dukasummer contest tasks, and I was a bit excited too as I had never ventured this kind of travelling! I work in a small island and there is no point in travelling in this tiny area but I have seen my colleagues taking their motorbikes in the boats to remote islands -may be to visit their friends or to conduct some short term business ventures during the mid-term or the term-end…

SHOOT A WATER PISTOL

neoGe Updated 16 Aug.  in #Extreme #DukaSummer #Shhotwaterpistol
A Stranger At The Other Side Of The Wall
The same day we planted the sapling,water pistol shooting was arranged. The problem was to find a stranger in the island. It is very rarely that an outsider comes to stay in the island. So we both planned something to overcome this. As some one approaches the corner of the wall, Sitham would show me a signal. Sitham might know who the passerby was but I would not,as I was standing inside the wall.
I was ready with my heavy pistol and sooner than later, th…

THE HORRIFYING EXPERIENCE

neoGe Posted 21 July  in #Extreme #DukaSummer #Watchhorrorfilms
Books Versus Movies

Watching horror movies has been never in my to-do list of things. I have tried to watch one or two of them as a young student, but never watched one fully. Not just due to the horror aspect but I could not engage myself to watch something which I thought was not helping me in any way. On the other hand, at the beginning of my journey of reading, I was eager to read horror stories and detective novels. Later I completely avoided these genre from my reading.
The Dukasummer Tas…

PRAY FOR US

neoGe Posted 15 July  in #Extreme #DukaSummer #Climbtree
A tree that looks at God all day,
And lifts her leafy arms to pray;
Joyce Kilmer
The Prayer And the Prey
Trees never had time to look down
since they were deeply meditative and prayerful
and lowly men never looked up except with greed
and the leafy arms along with their magnificent trunks
fell to soil incessantly resulting in sweltering heat and swirling wind
but the greedy souls under the shades never thought they were at fault,
for they were on a race to conquer and never bothered to worry…

COMMUNICATE WITH NATURE

neoGe Posted 11 July  in #Extreme #DukaSummer #Giveupcommunication
Hi Friends,
A place and a time when our olfactory nerves grab the bouquet of our primitive selves which undoubtedly is the odour of the nature.
The media of communication that we are equipped with at present are inept in allowing me to send that across unto you my friends'
Not just that, the gentle breeze that wraps you around can not be posted along with this clip either! With so much of technology around us still we have to grumble like this!
If I could publish this content in the Dukasummer c…

Full Many a Glorious Morning Have I Seen...

Friday being the weekly holiday in these parts of the world,people get up late in the morning and I thought of having 'the open bath session' before my house-owner's family members came out for their daily chores. I could not have accomplished this Dukasummer task during the week days, as every working day we have to start for the school as son as the day light hits the soil.
I had two more things in my mind for the morning-capture the eternal beauty o…

I ENDED BUT 'YES' CONTINUED!

neoGe Posted 6 July  in #Extreme #DukaSummer #Yesallday
Man Proposes.....

Yes, I was ready for the third post of mine in the DUKASUMMER fun! Not just ready, instead I was really excited about the task- 'Prepare a list of books for the summer and read them'. Literally on a high because 'collecting books and reading them 'at a go' most of the times by forgoing everything else-even the meals were consigned to the oblivion till I really starved -to devour my dear possession cover to cover. Oh! I just got carried away by the mention of the task, but this …

'YES' FOR ALL DAY

neoGe Posted 5 July  in #Extreme #DukaSummer #Yesallday
THE REVEALING

It was decided immediately after posting the first day's task yesterday that the next post will be on being 'YES"-Master the whole day. There were two reasons for selecting this task for Wednesday. The first one is that the Dukasummer was announced as a surprise contest and caught me unawares, really. I came to my room after a busy day, that too late in the afternoon, finished my lunch and before taking a nap, just opened my laptop and as soon as I went to the Dukascopy page, the …
