For Once I was ahead of the curve, and having rarely been in this exalted good, I can tell you it feels good. Those notions have not escaped yet the world feels so unfamiliar a place to live.
Inconspicuous.
A break is all that is required to fix those broken pieces. The proliferation of each and everything do takes its toll on the humble and the overcome becomes a long-desired rhapsody. (Well enough of it all!)
A long exam filled weekend reached the end, at last. Well it had to, I guess. And so came the fun filled weekend, I had been craving for so long. It all started as a boring journey, I slept 5 out of the 7 hours and the only one hour that was good was the one I traveled standing, well of course, my earphones in my ears. The song ‘Spaceman’ by ‘Killers’ goes as:
The starmaker says "it ain't so bad"
The dream maker's gonna make you mad
The spaceman says "everybody look down
it's all in your mind"
A song which brought a genuine smile on my face. Then finally I absorbed my ego which helped to mend a few things and the things went smooth thereafter. The fest was brilliant. The Heavy Metal Band, “Malifice” was effervescent, and we did enjoy a lot. The hand-banging’s were plenty and the neck ached for the entire next day. It was all worth it. What followed was even better. “Mohit Chauhan”. Immaculate.
But the gist of the weekend lied in the “Get Together”. Me, Anish, K.K, Pari, Degant and Kartik. It was my first meet with them. But the way we conducted thereafter was a picturesque panorama of a few delhi guys having some serious fun. Delhi 6 was Exquisite. Those Paranthas, Lassi, n Rabri was more than we could have hoped for. Delicious. Yet the heart lied in the Hard Rock Café. Bloody Hell. The ambience was unbelievable. The songs were just too good, no denying the audio capability of the café which was way above anything I’ve ever heard. Puddle of Mudd. Papa Roach. John Lennon. Ramstein. James Blunt.
Grand.
The exit door said, “Take time to be kind”. Well yes, I did notice that. Conspicuous. Well coming back I was still occupied in my thoughts. Then the best program of the millennium, DEXTER, made all my tiredness go away. I downloaded the entire episode in 30 min and finally went to sleep at 4 after watching it.
As I woke up for the morning, a subtle thought struck me. “Why do we feel the need to indulge ourselves in the pigsties of the adults. We are Children and should behave the same.”
Seriously.
As Anish says “peace marr”. So “peace marr”. There is no need to allow ourselves to float in the swirl of thoughts pivoting from the archaic vaccum of nothingness. Infact, we should be asking us “How much are we living the dream??” Don’t matter, how long that list of regrets or disappointments maybe, if we try to search for that answer, it comes “So much”. So Damn True..!!

The Rift
July 29, that was the official day i entered the room C106....and it was our idea to jot down everything tht happens,although we haven’t been faithful to our duty of writing ..and the following blog is my perception ...nuthing has been discussed and said ...
I see a rift developing amongst us...the bros of C106,maybe a small rift but ya its sad and true, ideally its nt possible ki we can live perfectly without any fights or something but dint really anticipated its surfacing so quick and abrupt.........cant complaint ,its mutual and a cumulative effect. Hoping that it doesn’t end up on a bad note(least expected outcome ..i dunt believe in this )

"Turning the other cheek..."
We reap what we sow. If things do not catch up with us in this lifetime, rest assured they would do so, in another.
Karma.
Most importantly of all is to believe in things. To believe in that so called damsel of fate. Everybody lives by a code. And so do I. Idiosyncratically some things happen which seem to infringe that code. But keeping our doubts to the minimum and believing in the good or as everything happens for the good, we move forward, taking that another plunge into the ocean of the unknown. Cause that's what we do, or we are meant to do.
Letting it go.
Letting go of that emotion..
...which may be dark red colour in the aura, and can make the aura feel dull and heavy, but at the same time very spiky.
...or may even be a heavy grey cloud that sits in the aura and can manifest at many levels.
But life has never been that waste of time. It is, as I so truly believe, has a way of coming at you in circles. I guess thats what 'Karma'is.
P.S. It has nothing to do with my stubble that i got a few days back.

Hide and Seek
The all time classic game of Hide and Seek just came to my mind while i was contemplating...and suddenly an all new perspective opened...something i never gave a thought.
When we were kids we used to play this classic game in the format it is known ...even now we play this game but with an altogether new format.
Searching and Concealing.....concealing things from people around us ..may include materialistic possessions or may include emotions, feelings etc...concealing is nt only limited to people around us but also includes hiding from ourselves in other words not being true to self...and thats the biggest sin
All truths are easy to understand once they are discovered; the point is to discover them.-- Galileo Galilei
Seeking ..a natural human tendency
Seeking for a friend, materialistic needs ,compassion ,love ,inner peace and what not ...we keep seeking all through our lives ...although i have just travelled a few miles of this journey but this is what i have seen .
So we have been playing this game right from our birth ..its just that it keeps changing its form but the basic essence remains the same..HIDE AND SEEK..

Pro-crasti-nation!!
Is there something you ought to be doing right now? Chances are, YES. Well, to be honest, there is always something we ought to be doing at every moment, but it’s just the sluggish nature of ours that envies the right thing to be done at the right time.
Going by the RD figures, 95% people procrastinate. So what’s the big deal? Everybody does it. It’s just the way we are. But the figures also reflect a morose side to the story. It hampers our health, wealth and a vast sea of opportunities.
It starts by a little deferment and by the time we realize it, the list has already prolonged to the next page. Then the cognition takes us through the lane among the mine-fields. Our sole aim becomes to shorten that list. We keep swinging in the to-and-fro motion of that lost endeavour and miss out on the episode of the present.
I showcased the same order of events last week. I even resorted to make a list and by the time I started with one thing something else popped-up. The To-do option in my phone do came in handy. I completed 12 of the 15 tasks I was set out to do. What helped my cause was that I completed the most challenging task first. I didn’t intend to do it first, it sort-of happened, but I do had the willingness and yes, the efforts did pay off to conclude the leftovers.
So, as the saying goes, the best time to do a task, is NOW. We never know when the presence will lose its ‘tranquility’ or more importantly it’s ‘essence’.

The Friendship day Jaunt
Part I
Pwn4ge aka Degant and this guy with Asmatullah Achakzai aka Zubin planned a friendship day brunch and we were informed of it,Asmatullah left for his home a day before and came back on the day itself and Old Trafford aka Manu was to accompany Dadu aka Sourav and devil for a meeting and as planned they attended the meeting which is highly classified .
It was the time when the sun is highest in the sky (i can be a poet...lol a beautiful line) and old Trafford messaged to meet them at the Sherawala gate(Patiala) so me along with Quintessentially paranoid aka Kshitij(with a j J) and Asmatullah took a rickshaw to the famous 22 number gate. I had devil’s camera with me luckily and one thing i need to mention here wenever i have a camera the photographer within me wakes up so i started making a video (soon they will be here)...back to rickshaw .......ya on our way we discussed friendship ...i asked them what do u have to say on friendship and Asmatullah was like...”aaaa....aa...aa....ok later” and Quintessentially paranoid started said “fakers.......choose your friend wisely...”and after that we reached Sahani and there we saw some girls (wont mention there name here ) and while crossing 22 we saw some more girls particularly one girl ...and after tht there were no more girls on the way to our destination ...lol
Quintessentially paranoid enlightened us with his supreme knowledge and showed us the new Indian post logo...lol
Meanwhile Dadu ,Old Trafford and Pwn4ge were done with there meeting and were off to drink “lassi”,finaly we met and then went to a “chole Bhature “ restaurant actually a small dingy place cant even call it a restaurant ...better to call it a “dhabha” . After eating and drinking tht “lassi” we set back our course to the hostel
Part II
After takin a nap me and Asmatullah decided to window shop and Old Trafford left with TJ. On our way back from 22 we decided to go to the Gurudwara nearby ,we sat near the Sarovar for abt half and hour and the serenity was rejuvenating , breeze created small ripples in the water and the lights from above added to the scenic beauty. There were some fishes and most of them were black or brownish in shade and suddenly i saw a golden yellow fish ...maybe a good omen. With that i wud like to conclude by saying something on true friendship.
In this materialistic world there are many people who fake around to befriend someone for some selfish motive of theirs....according to me a true friend is a person whose sole motif is to unconditionally support his/her friend.

The day my life mocked me.......
Wll everyone have their worst or best days,but some days you feel destiny conspires against you.I am surely skeptical about begginer's luck but truly convinced about juxtaposed jinxes.
Well it seemed as an ordinary day,laziness hovering in the ambience and a QUEER dead silence.
11:30am:Prepration of computer practical finishes.
11:45am:after doing usual chores ,me and my two friends set out on an ordeal.
