Wind of Change

Funny how things change behind your back without you finding out until it's too late. And funny how you think you're perfectly okay with the idea of change, but then you realize that you're not, and that change scares the shit out of you.

And funny how you never seem to learn that some things just can't be helped.

I never realized it, but my life's followed a pretty steady path so far. I've lived in the same city all my life, same house even. I've never changed schools, was in the same school for 13 years. Still hang out with pretty much the same set of friends, people i've know for quite a few years (except for my college friends of course, seeing how i've only been in college for about a year). Like the same actor i've liked ever since i was inducted into the world of movies. My favorite cuisine's been the same for the past 15 years. (Shahrukh Khan and Chinese respectively, just for the record).

I guess that's made me a little too complacent. And a little sensitive to change. Better start getting used to it.

Anyway, i'm done cribbing. so i'm gonna take off. Will go have my 6th Snickers of the day (there really shouldn't be so much chocolate in the fridge, especially when you're not exactly in the best of moods).

Until next time, good bye, and a belated Happy Independence Day to everyone (i'm gonna spare everyone and not talk about how it's lost it's relevance in today's times).

Amazingly sheltered life... But, then that is to expected... Since I have stayed in 8-10 cities, Change had become a close companion... Infact, life starts getting all weird if there's no change...!!!

Burf, when you eat Mars daily and don't get Dairy Milk where you live- trust me you will like Dairy milk.

Ahh change happens for good too. We don't realise it and don't blog about it.

Curios to know what has actually happened.
