BEING SUPERNATURAL...

It was always about Prison Break. Scofield.. Big big brother Burrows… T-bag… Alex Mahone.. Sarah.. LJ.. I watched it all to the end point.. and it was all brilliant, as the word implies. This is not about Prison Break, guys. Today.. I’m gonna tell you something supernatural. It’s a cool TV show too. The 5th season is currently on air and the show has gotten better throughout the past seasons. Supernatural is not very well known to Sri Lankan viewers, I guess. But it’s really cool. Maybe I say cool cz I love the stuff in it. Supernatural stuff.

The stars of the series are Jared Padalecki as Sam Winchester and Jensen Ackels as Dean Winchester. The Winchester brothers are just like Ghostbusters, but they’re just far more than any Ghostbusters we can think of. They hunt down demons, ghosts, spirits and all the other species that has a supernaturally paranormal origin. The brother call themselves as ‘hunters’ and there’s a community of hunters just like them. A powerful demon visits the Winchester residence when Sam was merely an infant, burns their mom glues to the ceiling, kills her and gets away. That’s where the story starts. Sam and Dean’s dad Jhon starts searching for the demon. The brothers take over the job when they get older…and they hunt down whatever creatures they meet on the search.

Well guys.. I’m so much in to supernatural stuff and mythology. So for me.. it was all very interesting. We only know about spirits, demons and ghosts. That’s only 3 species out of the 100. There are more! Women in white are one category.. Shtrigas.. Wendigos.. Zombies.. Rippers.. All the kinds of evil! Points to ponder: You can make a salt line, so that the spirits can’t cross it. Holy water and salt are acidic to them. You can use iron to stab them. Shotguns work too. To trap a demon, you can trick it into a pentagon so that he can’t get out. There’s an exorcism spell to send the demon right back to hell. You can make a deal with a demon at a cross road in exchange of your soul. The best way to kill a spirit id burn the bones of the dead person. Well.. There are so many stuff guys.

I’m at the 5th season now. Sam’s girlfriend gets killed just the way his mom died and that’s when Sam hits the road to help his dad and Dean. Their dad dies saving Deans life in the 2nd series. Sam gets killed. Dean makes a deal with a demon at the crossroads, trading his soul and brings back Sam to life. They kill the demon who killed their mom. They couldn’t prevent the opening of a door to the hell, so.. more demons come to our world, the strongest of them, called Lilith. A demon called Ruby volunteers to help them to kill Lilith. Dean was dragged to hell by hellhounds when he’s done with his time on earth, according to the deal he made. At the 4th season, angels come down to earth and the story becomes more interesting. Angels drag Dean from hell and gives him life. Lilith’s task is to awake Lucifer, or Satan as we know. There are 66 seals to be broken to do so. Demons and Angels fight side by side. Sam and Den, along with Ruby, help them. Sam has developed psychic powers since he was fed demon blood by the demon who killed their mom, when he was an infant. So… At the end of the 4th season, the 66th seal gets broken. Sam kills Lilith, not knowing that Lilith is the 66th seal. Ruby has tricked him and when Lilith dies, Lucifer rises. Angels fail. Interesting stuff…

There’s a confirmation of a 6th season of Supernatural as well. I would really wait for it! Just watch it and see guys! I hope you’ll like it too. Girls.. You’ll love Dean.. He’s hot and cool in the same time. Good luck with the paranormal!

HOPING FOR THE BEST...

Life these days to me is all about relaxing. I’ve been jobless for more than 2 months now. I really had a good rest and some quality time for myself. For 2-3 weeks, I didn’t look for jobs, cz I wanted to forget the whole ‘job’ thing for a while and take a rest.

Now.. I apply for jobs and I get interviews. I go for them too. The advantage is having some good experience in the field, so I guess I have the chance to get opportunities. Well.. I kept myself occupied for the last 2 months and I guess I had a good and useful holiday. Putting the last two months in bullet points is the easiest way, I guess. I read so many good books.. I watched a good number of movies… It counts finishing up the Prison Break Series and well.. I’m now in the 5th season of Supernatual.. Coming up is the Heroes and Robin Hood series all over again. Lol..

I have a vegetable garden now.. Funky ha? Got the first harvest of ladies fingers last week. Hehe.. That was something I always wanted to do. You have to water them and use fertilizers and look after them well. I go to driving school these days. I never had a driving license all this time. Did some good cooking.. Learned a lot of new things from the web. There was work in the house, so I helped. Never watched TV. Exercised. Ate good organic home made food, no junk food anywhere near.

I went out a lot with my friends. But I DO miss my friends at work a great deal. 3-4 times I dropped in to office to meet my friends. I loved that life. Most of the friends and things my life are still bound to that place. However, the bad part of is that I have no income now. So I’m poor and I’m running out of money.. Hehe.. So.. It really feels like starting the life all over the A/L. You have no money… You have no job and you plan for your studies. Oh.. I forgot to tell about the studies part. Since I’m NOT going to Canada… as per now, I wanted to start studies here. That will again be an MBA. Yesterday I had the aptitude test in the University I’m targeting. There’s a huge competition and the test itself was tough. So.. Crossing my fingers and waiting to see what will happen.

I schooled.. did my degree… did a job for 3 years and now.. I’m taking a break. I have started my life all over again and it really feels good. I always wanted a change in life. So.. Now I’m taking that change. No idea what life holds for the rest of the year; but as I always believe.. I hope for the best.. and continue hoping that life will lead me somewhere good. Cheers guys! Miss you all a lot!
