Trip to the Museum

Everything in Atlanta has a touch of chaos in it. I don't know if it's
due to the young age of the city or just because I don't like it and
expect too much from it that I often get disappointed on occasion with
everything about it. Case in point - the airport. Busiest airport in the
southeast, some say the whole country but that still doesn't explain
why it is so disorganized. A little flutter of traffic spreads onto the
street and before you know it, the line stretches as far possibly your
home, 10 miles away. The security line is just the same, so much so
people have missed their flight just trying to get through that security
check point. Any other state you don't have to get to the airport two
hours before your scheduled flight time. Case in point, my flight back
from Philly. I got to the airport half an hour before my flight and I
still made the flight with time to spare to catch my breath from running to
the gate.

The next disorganized set-up. The Museum. I went to the High Museum of
Art in Atlanta on Sunday. It was new, interesting modern décor and architecture.
But it did not have that real feel about it. Everything about it was
plastic, retouched and artificial. Like something out of a futuristic
sci-fi movie that claims that 2028 would look like a retouched hexagon
with very bright colors, soldiers at very corner and sharp lines. I think it was
a mixture of the newness and just the sheer non-authenticity of
Atlanta that just ruined it for me.

The arrangement was not user friendly, few authentic art pieces, not enough
crowd control and the elevator connecting the floors took longer than it
needed to. The pieces from the Louvre were about the only wonderful
pieces of the museum, makes you wonder what the museum was like before
then. There was a photography section but there was a handful at best
memorable pieces and about 30 pieces in total. Either people do not have
the fund to donate to the museum or the museum is still in its infancy
and has not accumulated the wealth of pieces that other museums have. And
it is not fair to compare as I have only been to one other museum (I
think, seems like I have been to a lot) which is the Philadelphia Museum.

Wish i had something to say

Wish I had something to say, but unfortunately I am drawing a blank. How has your week, or your month or year been? Mine has been crappy. Funny thing is I sort of knew it was going to be like this, right at the top of the year, the very top, as in few seconds in. Because last year was so good to me, that I knew that the next year was so going to suck mothballs. And what do you know, it did.

Right now, there are 3 things that could possibly or shall I say miraculously happen before this year ends that would make it worthwile, wipe off all the pain and anguish of this horrid year. I know it's probably a lot to hope for being that we only have 6 weeks before the nightmarish year ends. For now, all I can really pray for is that I stay alive to see the year end, and if the 3 miracles shall occur. Even better.
