Something's Fishy!

That's as much 'creative' writing I am able to squeeze in these days...[the title of the post I mean]
Sheesh! I really do love writing. Which does remind me of how my friend still loves telling other friends/colleagues the incredibly fascinating tale of
"how-vinutha-used-to-write-the-english-exam-paper -for-a-full-3 hours [and oh she took extra sheets too!!!]"

Allow me to justify here! Who could resist the "Explain in no more than 10[or was it 20? or was there a limit even??] your perspective on Subashini's life in the story "Subashini"?" or "Write a brief summary on King Lear and was he justified in his treatment of his 3 daughters?" Not me..i loved them!!!

And I must say, getting top scores in language subjects always made me happy! How exactly the teacher even deciphered my hand-writing..hmm...That's a topic I wont elaborate on [at least for now!]

A little retrospect on the subject matter at hand, and hey..I came up with the following 3 laws [which holds true for my alarmingly diminishing write-ups on the blog] and oh!! Remember..you heard them here first!!! ;-) ]:
1. When you feel like writing..just do. If that moment passes..well..you are pretty much left with a blank notepad/word doc and well that's pretty blank ain't it!

2. The more you postpone writing about that silly incident you saw today, that awesome trek you had, that hilarious movie you saw, the unexpected turns in life, the moments of sadness..ok...ok..i stop...but you get the point! Now, where was I?? oh yes... the more time you postpone it, the more averse you become to capture it in words.
[This law may very well be misunderstood to sound like a corollary to Law no 1. But no it isn't]

3. If you start posting pictures, you always have something to post. So you end up writing less.
Justification to Law no 3: Apparently, a picture is worth a thousand words!!!

Hmm..strayed away hopelessly from the title didn't I?
So a combination of all the above-stated laws results in this picture account of a recent trip to Fisherman's Wharf in San Francisco!!! [ now you get the title?!??!??]

Self-explanatory

We took a ferry ride, which has this very informative audio tour. Seriously.

Some creative name for a red and white fleet isn't it?

This was how the weather was. Cloudy and drizzling at times too.

:-) Loved the composition of this one!

Peeping Tom??

My friend's very cute and well-behaved niece.

The ferry-ride comprises of a tour of few places of SFO and the golden gate bridge had to be one of them.

This is THE ROCK! ALCATRAZ. The audio tour at this point had some sinister music with a detailed account of a particular breakout from this prison. The 3 who escaped were never found!

And to end this, as usual, some random shots.



You can find lots of these birds everywhere. As much as I like them, it was quite annoying to see them flying all over the place.


p.s: If you are still wondering, What happened to Vinutha's usual writing style? Did she actually write this post? Let's just say she is hugely "inspired" by the immensely enjoyable accounts of a fellow-blogger she chanced upon today!
And like everything else, this will pass too!
