HUNTING MOVIES IN THE NET...

Being a professional movie hunter on the web, I have developed a certain auto-scanning ability to roam over the net and find the movie I want someway or the other. Free movies in the net!! You don’t have to wait till the DVD comes out.. or even the movie comes to the theatre. Just download the movie for free.. and watch it: simple as that. In this post, I just wanted to give you all some useful tips for professional movie hunting.

Finding a good movie: Look for the top ranking movies of the month. Refer the Weekend US Box Office actuals on Yahoo movies.http://movies.yahoo.com/mv/boxoffice/

Need to find good movies of all time? : This is a good database to look for the movie you want. All the details of your movie are there. You might even find a good movie from this site too. http://www.zml.com/

Watching the trailers: Official websites of the movies are a big help. Other than that, YouTube is the best place to view a trailer. http://www.youtube.com/

Watching the movies online: Here’s a good site to watch your favourite movies online. You can even download them in DivX format or in Flash format. http://joox.net/

Downloading the movies: The BEST way is using the Torrent web sites. uTorrent is my favourite tool to download movies. The torrent site I mostly use is isoHunt. http://isohunt.com/torrents/

But if you go to the following site, you can search for torrents in most famous torrent sites, within this site. It’s very easy and convenient. I think this is the most useful torrent site of all.http://www.torrents.to/

Always look for the originals. Read user comments to make sure that you’re downloading a good copy. As most of the torrent users know, the most famous torrent uploaders with the best quality movies are Axxo and FXG. Don’t waste your money on DVDs. Just download..!!

THE GIRL ON THE MOVE IS BACK.... TIRED & BUSY...!!

Hello people! I’ve been away from my blog for too long, I guess..! I’m staying at home on a Sunday after 3 whole weeks, phew!! Life is getting so busy… and at times, I can’t even imagine how many things we do during one week’s time. So many things to do, yet so little time left! I was thinking what I was up to all this time. I was so damn busy with work, weddings, trips and other must-do things; I totally didn’t have a time of my own to do my things.

Last weekend was wholly gone for the Nuwara-Eliya trip. It was a 3 day trip with my friends and family. It was good. Saturday, Sunday, Monday for the trip. Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday working late till 9.30 and coming home around 11. Friday, a wedding of a very good friend of mine, in Kandy. Saturday, I was at work all day. Sunday, thank god, I’m home. Wanted to do and buy so many things, but if I want to buy them today, I have to go out. So I postponed it and stayed home. For the 1st time, I missed the Colombo Book Fair. I absolutely had no time to go. This is a sample of one week in my life these days. It’s damn tiring.

The mailboxes are piling up… I lost track of time to call my friends…. Rarely see the people at home.. No time to watch a movie… No time to cuddle up and read a book… I miss reading all the weekly newspapers.. No facebook.. I’m developing dark circles under my eyes.. And work is so damn tiring these days. I wonder why our lives have to be so busy. We don’t even have a time to look after ourselves. It’s bad, you know. I wonder when this circle will be over… For most of you out there, I know that the story of your life is almost identical to mine… All we do is, keeping our hopes up and facing the next busy day. Hmmm…..

IN TO THE WILD....

It's Hurulu Wewa and Ritigala Kanda... I captured this on our way to my mom's hometown... It really was a journey to the wild. 3 complete days.. lost in the jungle...

HMMM.... THE NEXT IN LINE.....

It was a long week for me. We returned yesterday after spending 3days in my mom’s village, for my cousin sis’s wedding. Now that she’s married, the queue of unmarried girls in my mom’s side is finally over… Well.. that’s what I thought at least, till my relatives came up with another topic. ME!! I was hearing the same thing over an over again and suddenly I realized that I’m (yes.. the poor me) is the next in line to be married. Oh no!!! All this time, all my relatives had their eyes on my cousin sis, who just got married. She married a bit late, at 30 (late??) according to my relatives. She had to go through more than 100 proposals to meet her soul mate, by the way.

Well… they had many questions for me, you see. ‘How old are you now?’ was the 1st question. And when I answered ‘27’, they get shocked. ‘Oh no… You’re already too late. When are you going to marry??’ will be the next question. First, it was somewhat annoying. Then I turned it into a word game. Just for all you yet-to-be married girls, regardless of having boyfriends or not, here are a few things you can tell all the curious people out there to get away from the situation.

‘Oh… I’m already married. Didn’t you know?’ ‘Well… I ran away.. my parents kept it as a secret.’ ‘I’m married, you know. This is my 5 year old son’ and show a kid running around you. And if there’s no kid running around you, tell them ‘Sure thing. I’m getting married next year’. But the next question will be ‘Who’s the lucky guy?’ Then you answer ‘He’s getting the divorce from his wife these days’. For the ‘When can we have a piece of cake from you?’ question.. you say ‘Tomorrow maybe? I’ll buy you a good one from the Sponge’… And here’s a rude one.. ‘When will you invite us for you’re wedding?’ question… you say ‘You won’t be. The list was too big, so I had to cut your name from the list’.. WICKED…!!

Well… being a bit serious, I guess we all have to face this situation when we become 24+. Just because we have reached that age, I don’t think there should be a rush for the marriage. Your parents… relatives… neighbors… family friends… they start to worry about you. It’s good, you know. But some people are just being nosy. I have noted that. I guess the time will solve all things perfectly. I was thinking about my cousin sis. She found the most perfect and the most loving husband for her, in the end.

When I see my old school friends in FB, I tend to wonder about marriage too. Most of them are now married. Some are even having kids. Everyday, I see the relationship statuses changing from ‘Single’ to ‘In a Relationship’ to ‘Married’. Most of my friends are married now, I see. Loads of wedding in these few months and yet some more to come in the future!

Hmmm.. I’ve never thought of something like ‘I should be married by now’ or ‘OMG! I should marry soon too’. Instead, I just have this little feeling… that I’m definitely gonna marry…. When… that I don’t know. I know this much… he’s exactly the man in my dreams…
