HumouroscopeAries (March 21 - April 20): It's high time you organise your things, starting with your finances. Luckily for you, it just means putting the one ten Rupee note in front of the two twenty Rupee notes in your wallet.

Taurus (April 21 - May 21): Your crush has not been paying at-tention to your efforts to impress him/her. Wear clothes in shocking pink, bright yellow, vomit green, cement grey and blood red for the coming week. Throw on a silver sequined muffler on Wednesday -

that ought to do it!

Gemini (May 22 - June 21): This week you will find it difficult to economise your phone bill, stick to your diet, keep promises, fight urges to log on to facebook again and again, finish assignments on time... so ya, nothing new this week.

Cancer (June 22 - July 22): You are the star of this week and you will be showered with love and compliments from all sides. Also, the stars find it difficult to be honest with people who have nothing good going in life right now.

Leo (July 23 - August 21): Beware: Your classmates will finally dis-cover the source of that strange odour in the classroom. Yes, I am afraid this is as far as you could have gone without taking a bath this winter.

Virgo (August 22 - September 23): You are in a stable place in your life right now- your grades are good, your friends keep you smil-ing, the love of your life is by your side, yet you have this gloomy feeling that something is missing. God! Some people can never be pleased!

Libra (September 24 - October 23): You are advised to keep your narcissist self under control and refrain from combing your hair all the time. If u continue you frantic combing, pretty soon there won't be much left to comb up there.

Scorpio (October 24 - November 22): The stars don’t seem to be on your side this week. You will be bullied for the most random rea-son like making noises while eating or talking too loudly or answering questions in class or even breathing.

Sagittarius (November 23 - December 22): People will have dif-ficulty understanding you (because of your fake accent). Moreover, your boyfriend/girlfriend will run out of toothpaste and soap on Friday. So when you see him/her, RUN! Run like the wind!

Capricorn (December 23 - January 20): Being Mr. nice guy and a goody two shoes is just not paying off, is it? Try something adventur-ous this week. Plucking flowers, stealing chalk from classrooms, litter-ing and spitting on the road are not adventurous enough.

Aquarius (January 21 - February 19): You will be made to feel guilty for not caring enough about the interests of your friends and loved ones. Don’t fret! People are just incapable of understanding your pathological need for self love and self indulgence.

Pisces (February 20 - March 20): You will waste 30% of your week on romance, 20% eating, 10% on fights, 40% on sleeping in class-rooms, 20% on homework, 40% in the bathroom, 15% on staring at nothingness, 5% on scratching your head, and about 2% adding up these weird percentages and making sense of them.

The Importance of Being Idle’ is a song by the British rock band ‘Oasis’. Written and sung by lead guitarist Noel Gallagher, Noel said that the lyrics were inspired by his own laziness. One thing about this song that stands out are the ablsolutely crazy lyrics. A good example are the following lines from the second verse

“ I begged my doctor for one more line He said "Son - words fail me" ”

The video fits perfectly with the wackiness of the lyrics. The video of "The Importance of Being Idle' starred Welsh actor Rhys Ifans who is best known for his role as Hugh Grants eccentric Welsh roommate, Spike. The video pays homage to the style of early 1960s drama British films, and is set during the build up to a funeral procession in a northern town, with the extravagant undertakers parading the coffin at the video's climax.

The Importance of Being Idle is definitely a song you want to hear and a video you want to see, if you are in need of a good laugh….
