There's a new Aamir Khan movie out.

Usually I would be avoiding theatres like the plague now, waiting until next week or so when I can watch the movie without the excess chatter of first-day-first-show types who really aren't interested in the movie so much as being able to say they've seen the movie. However, thanks in part to UTV's extensive, news-channel heavy marketing campaign for their new film, and my father's addiction to said news channels, I knew it would be inevitable that by midweek I would either overhear the entire plot (it's a house where sound carries very well -- I can hear the TV in the bathroom), or more likely it would be narrated to me by my excited parent.

I'm typing up entry pages for my work -- illustration, photographs etc. -- which is taking a bit longer than I expected. Coming up with something to say on each page is a bit of a strain. I may just leave some blank (i.e. with just the work) if it means getting it done quicker.

Getting the blog to work with the new template is also going to be a bit of a chess game. Don't be surprised if you turn up at the blog and it looks all crazy. When it's done to my satisfaction I'll put a post up to let you all know, and no cracks like "so when's it really going to be done?" shall be entertained.

It's a new year, so I decided to finally work on the rest of the site. A redesign has been done, it's been implemented to HTML, but I'll only put it up when I get the rest of it done otherwise I'll just end up changing the blog and sitting on it for a year again. Should be another week before I sort out all my work and type up the entry pages for them, and the end of which I should hopefully have a (fully-working) site.

Meanwhile you should all go see Woody Allen's Match Point, which I was lucky enough to see an advanced screening of (it releases tomorrow here, but is already out in places in the US).

Do not watch trailers or read reviews, as this film is best watched 'cold.' Hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

Oh look, a new year.

Hard to believe we're already in the second half of the 2000s. Just yesterday we were all getting hot and bothered about the millennium bug, and those silly sunglasses with "2000" won them were making their appearance on drunk faces in Times Square (one wonders how the manufacturer plans to tackle the 2011 edition?).
