Day 14

Tuesday 5/01/19 Today's session was the last film appreciation session of this semester to which I was late by ten minutes. I noticed people doodling and writing on black sheets of paper which were to be put up on the windows at the back of the auditorium. I placed my bag down, took out my stationary and the black sheet of paper and hurried to the stage to start with the task. It took me a while before I could complete the task even though I didn't do it creatively as I'm really bad at writing on sheets without lines on them. After everyone was done with the task, we got back to our seats and saw a movie called "Still Life", of which our faculty was a part. However, the movie was in black and white and since I was a little tired, it went over my head. After the movie we all posed for class photographs which took a while as we kept experimenting with different poses. After the class photograph, we were dismissed. We all bid good bye to our faculty, shook han

Thursday 31/01/19 At 3:00, I was in the college bus on my way to college from the National Garment Fair at Goregaon. At 4:10, I reached the campus and hurried to the auditorium on the 7th floor. I got seated while the class was in the middle of a discussion. I stared the speakers blankly.

He told us how she keeps mocking him by saying 'Welcome to my world'. He said to her that what kind of system has she and the others at the college made, what have they made of the students as a reply to which his wife says : yes, we all are ________ He asked us to fill in the blank. Different answers came up which cracked us all up. Though, everyone could

Rashomon : My take on it

-
 Rashomon : By Akira Kurosawa The film Rashomon by Akira Kurosawa tells the story of a murder from the perspectives of various individuals including the one who was murdered. And the various stories narrated in the courthouse were nothing but half of what was true. The rest part of the stories were a manipulation of the real occurences.  What I learnt from it and how I relate it with my past and my present? No matter what, no one is completely honest, not to others and neither to their own selves. The woodcutter who claimed that the stories narrated by all the others were lies, himself admitted to lying in the court to avoid getting involved as he had witnessed the murder and probably had stolen a valuable knife from the scene of crime.  I can relate to it as I myself at various points in my life have lied or manipulated the truth in order to avoid getting in trouble but at the same time I have claimed that the others were lying.  For instance when I used to
