73.5%...OK...WHATEVER....I DIDN"T STUDY THAT HARD ANYWAY!!!

Just got back from a week-long holiday in Goa and strangely,i'm quite glad to be back.

I dunno if it's the excitement of going back to college or the fact that Goa is loosing it's charm.

Although the former is pretty convincing!

So tomorrow's the big day...i'll be going back to college after nearly 3 months...just for admission...I'll have to wait for 2 more long and boring weeks until college actually resumes...

Until then,i'll have to find something to do!

btw,i got 73.5% (yes the point 5 is very important)

You know that feeling you get after getting your results?the one thought that'll nag you for a whole month after the results?The one that goes"Oh-You-Should-have-studied-more"?

YES!That's what i'm feeling right now!

It's funny coz before the exam,i kinda reached a state of saturation where i just couldn't read another word!

MY SUMMER BUCKET LIST

OK, i know that the first half of the vacations are over and that this list was due in march,but i guess it's better late than never!

After much contemplation over what should be included n what should be canned, I've come up with this list....

Here goes!

1.Learn how to cook- I wont say that i'm completely unskilled,but cooking is just not my department(yet).I mean,sure i can make maggi in 2 minutes(mind you it tastes good),but i'd like to delimit my menu.

2.Learn to drive-By that i mean being able to drive all by myself without the help of the double clutch!

3.Learn to type-right now,i'm typing with just two fingers!

4.Get fit-eat right-LOOSE WEIGHT!!!!!

This one's the most important and it's on my bucket list every year.

Hopefully next year loosing weight will be a thing of the past...=)

ps. ask me how much weight i wanna loose?

enough to take me from being a size 30 " to 26"

yes.i know it's unhealthy,but still!

p.p.s. ever heard of the saying,'reach for the skies,u'll land on a tree?" thats just what i'm doing!

p.p.p.s. if i'm lucky, i'll probably fit into my 30" skinnies!

p.p.p.p.s .i can go on all day!

=x

STW!!

I WILL PERSEVERE!!!

Democracy is soo DEAD!!

A few minutes ago,i was reading an old addition of the TOI.the headlines were most disturbing,it read is our democracy still in the dark ages?

Khap panchayats killing couples who marry against their writ; the moral police brigade sitting in judgment over what constitutes obscenity; daily attacks on freedom of speech and expression; regressive laws that discriminate against women; the ban on gambling…As Indians, we never lose an opportunity to advertise ourselves as the world’s largest democracy but taking into consideration the news that makes it to the headlines,the answer is clearly NO.

Almost everyday, someone’s “sentiments are hurt” — either by a book, a poster, a film and what have you. And the only balm available to soothe the imagined wounds, it seems, is to go on a rampage!

63 years on,is this the democracy that our constitution guarantees?
I'll go onto say that the laws of the land are also faulty.

For Example,If the wife is above 15 years of age, her husband can rape her.Adding insult to injury, the provision relating to adultery makes it clear that only a husband can initiate criminal proceedings. There is no such corresponding right granted to the wife because the Victorian-vintage provision considers her to be the husband’s property and she therefore has to suffer in silence if he is indulging in adultery.

There seems to be an unending ream of problems as far as social development is concerned....lets just wait and watch....

MAKE THE WORLD GO AWAY...GET IT...GET IT OFF MY SHOULDER...YEAH...MAKE THE WORLD GO AWAY...SAY THE THINGS WE USED TO SAY AND MAKE THE WORLD GO AWAY

This poem is for the only one i have truly loved,the one I've lost forever...


Have I Ever



Have I ever told you
that if I sit really still and silent,
sometimes. I like to think
I can hear your heart beating
in time with mine?

Have I ever told you
that when I hear you speak to me
through lines and cords,
and disturbances and interruptions,
I imagine
your voice,
whispering into my ear?

Have I ever told you
that I wait out each day
in anticipation,
wanting
only an hour or two,
just a second in space and time,
to feel close to you?

Have I ever told you
that there has been times,
when I ached for you,
ached for you so badly,
that the emotions overwhelmed me..
and so I sat and cried?

Have I ever told you
that sometimes,
I will reach out,
touching your name
on this cold screen before me,
wishing
I could reach in
and pull you to me?

Have I ever told you
that after the first time I heard
the sound of your voice after a month,
I sat up all night,
turning the conversation over and over
in my mind,
examining it,
like some newly discovered species of flower?

Have I ever told you
that I would give everything up,
just for one night
to be able to lay near you,
to feel your chest rise and fall
with each breath you take,
just to know that you are real?

Have I ever told you
that I dream of you often,
I dream of you reaching out
and touching my hand,
simply to let me know
that you are there,
and everything is okay?

Have I ever told you,
have I ever told you. . .
that I'll love you.....Forever?

(ps. i'm not going to tell y'll who...most of u know who..some of u will guess........


and HE will know it's him i'm talking about...
<3

WHAT A TRAGEDY WOULD THAT BE?!?

So I was talking to my very wise mommy yesterday, and of course I was rambling about how I couldn't wait until this! and was so looking forward to this! oh my gosh and this! too.

And then she was like, "Chill. Out." Ok, she didn't really say it like that, but I'm translating for you.

I have got to stop looking forward to things that may or may not happen!

I am blessed where I am right here and now. I mean it is wonderful to dream - so , so wonderful - but if I'm always looking forward, won't I miss everything that is happening right now?

WHAT A TRAGEDY WOULD THAT BE?!?

AGING GRACEFULLY

It was my 18th Birthday last Wednesday.My cell phone kept ringing all day with calls from Aunts,Uncles cousins,friends,grandparents,grand aunts,grand-uncles...the entire clan actually(I'm Indian)
They all had the same question for me-"so,how do you feel now that you're 18?"

"It's the same as being 17"

"And 16"

"And 15"

I really mean it.I'm not old enough to let a number bother me.Maybe it will...Someday.But not today.


For all the cliche sayings about aging gracefully, we as a society seem to really stink at it. Everywhere you turn there are formulas and serums and stretches to fake your way out of it. Which really just makes it more traumatic for everyone. Hel-lo. Getting older is inevitable. Unless you prefer the alternative, but death doesn't seem too popular either.

I wish we could figure out a way to make each aging milestone cool. Acceptable. Valuable.

I don't know the answers, but I think we might be missing out on something important.

LOVE ME WITHOUT FEAR.

ACCEPT ME WITHOUT WONDERING.

BE THERE FOR ME WITHOUT RESTRICTION.

ACCEPT ME AS I AM.

A LOVE LIKE THAT WOULD BE ETERNAL.
