Pir Sohawa: First time out of house arrest

Pir Sohawa is a mountain top overlooking Islamabad city. Pir Sohawa resides in the Margalla mountain range and it attracts lot of local and foreign visitors daily.

During the last weekend we had a chance to visit Pit Sohawa. Three of us came from Sri Lanka: Hemantha, Amila and me joined the trip. We had our friend Shoheib also, he helped us to make our life easier specially when communicating with people.

It’s really a good place to visit with nice landscapes in 360 view and good restaurants for foods. We went there by car, but there are several treks to climb there through mountains. Especially we are thinking of climbing it from trek starting from F-6/3.

That was our first outing after arriving to Islamabad on 23rd September. Due to security and various other situations, for past period we traveled between guest house and office only. So, that was a good difference for our minds after being in a kind of house arrest.

Amila, Me and Hematha

I have lost my Sony Cybershot S-90 camera, so all the photos in this post and here after are coming from Amila's camera.

Prison Break, Good, But too long

I am obsessed with movies. Usually I watch at least 3 movies in a week. I think it is little more than for me, with the type of job I am doing, software development. It seems like I am getting addicted to movies, but can’t help myself.

In movies, movie director unfolds the story in a way that keeps the observer in the movie world for a while. Since the movie goes from 1 hour to 3 hour max, spectator only need to be in the movie world for a reasonable time but experience of being in the movies is awesome.

But in TV series, it goes to week by week and if someone is following the series, he may have to wait till the next week to grab the next episode or if it is in a DVD, have to watch whole night to unearth the sequel. TV series always keep the end of episode unclear till the next episode. Every time, spectator ends up in mist of uncertainty and observer has to wait anxiously to see the next episode.

Prison Break, much hyped TV series on a unique story and it is unfolding in a unique method. The director and his crowd keeps spectator's eyes open till the end. Thumb up for the director and crew for unfolding such a sequel.

Yesterday I have watched 6 episodes during the night and today I feel very sleepy. Yeah that happens. Since I have lived with movies a lot, I felt very difficult to digest the episodes; those episodes were never ending, every time that keeps the end to the next episode. I really got fed up with that. May be it’s due to my lack of enthusiasm on TV series. May be I will get used to it.
But, so far I am struggling with the TV series.

Anyway, it’s a great story to listen; I will follow Prison Break, just for this series only. Not for any other TV series here after.
