Any colour you like...

"Any customer can have a car painted any colour that he wants so long as it is black."
Except for trademark colours like the Ferrari race red (known as Rosso Corsa) or the Pearl Metallic Yellow Murcielago, there are few cars that look better colorful. Even lesser cars can carry off a head to toe white attire. White Range Rovers look particularly smashing!
Hollywood trying to create future in their studio basements has somehow always foreseen cars of the future to be chiselled and DARK. Either bold primary colours or black! Even though the sharp lines concur, more concepts are being unveiled in shades of white or grey. Classic reminds of chrome and shiny black. Future may depict matt black bumpers and white bodies. That to me, is not an exciting sight! We need innovation at being simple. Finding practical solutions to avoid unnecessary complications and not trying too hard to be different could be a the way forward.

Household tips to be a kid!

1. Turn on the volume on your favorite playlist. It would really help if you like Rock n Roll or Metal. Go crazy! Mosh with your furniture.

2. Be a potato - For an entire day. Do not change out of those boxers. Grab the remote and watch reality shows all day. You won't like them. But the feeling of having done nothing all day reminds of those good old times.

3. Be the mechanic - We all have done this as kids. Pick up that remote controlled car and open it. Figure out it works on an electric motor connected to some plastic gears (something you already know) and feel the happiness of Colombus.

4. Watch a movie - Gather your friends. Watch a movie while gobbling samosas and pop corn without shelling out half of Kenya's GDP. A random english action movie should work just fine!

5. While you are at the single screen theatre, do NOT carry your cell phone, blackberry, smart phone, dedh shaana phone, et al. Try remembering your friend's numbers and co-ordinate using PCOs.

Get a hair cut

Many a times when you find monotony ruling your routine, it is time to change the way you look. Of course, it may not change anything with how you spend your days. You will still go to the same office, sleep on the same bed, drive the same car. It is obviously only a temporary solution. So until you come up with a concrete solution on how to get rid of the thing that is bothering you, get a haircut. Look different. Feel good about being new again.
Destinations don't matter, the journey does!
