Trivial Trivia

Is it just me or does everyone have a masochistic streak in them? It's a little worrying if that's not the case. So in case you do as well, do let me know.

I have my college farewell on the 3rd of March. The whole idea is still slightly surreal. I'm finding it unbelievably difficult to accept the fact the college is, in fact, pretty much over. I'm not feeling sad yet, coz it's not exactly sunk in. Funny. Guess once realization strikes, that'll warrant another post. For the time being, you guys can take a look here and here, to get an idea of what it felt like after 1st year and 2nd year got over, respectively.

What's worrying me more than anything else of late is the thought that the coming year is a closed book. For the first time in my life, i have absolutely no idea where i'm heading. Scary is an understatement. I'm dreading the end of college. *brrrrr*

On a more frivolous note, anyone following Roadies? I am ashamed to admit that every saturday, at 7 pm, i am glued to MTV. But what the hey, they've got some really fascinating people on the show this time. Is anyone hoping that devarshi's the next one to go?

Pardon the digression, i cannot help but digress. It's a failing i've been trying to rein in, but nothing's worked so far. Suggestions on what can be done are welcome.

In any case, i've pretty much lost track of what this post was suppossed to be all about, so we'll leave that for another day. I am awfully sleepy, and awfully glad about the fact that tomorrow is a DUTA strike, so i can sleep in (one reason i'm positive i'll miss DU for; impromptu strikes. :-D).

So until next time, goodbye, and go watch Billu (Barber). You won't yawn more than halpf a dozen times, and you'll help poor Shahrukh Khan recover some of his money. I mean c'mon, do your good deed of the day, the man's recovering from a surgery. I did it, purely out of selfless motives (Actually i went primarily in the hopes that i'd get to see lots of SRK. However, sadly, that did not happen).

P.S. - I went to buy my farewell sari today, n did not find anything. *sob*

My last resort is Fabindia. Pray for me.

God i really am frivolous.

Tag!

This is a tag, if i can call it that, that i got on facebook (was not even aware that stuff like this existed on social networking sites. :-p). Anyway, it seemed like fun, so i decided to do it here instead. It has no name, so i shall presumptiously give it a name. :-D

So this is the "One Word" tag. Not too original, i accept, but cut me some slack, i'm old now. Anyway, the basic idea is that there are a few (actually QUITE A FEW) questions, which must be answered in one word. So without further ado, here we go.

Anyway, i am off to have dinner. Mum's getting slightly hysterical. Until next time, goodbye, and good night.

Morrie

Tuesdays With Morrie is not a book one can read casually on board the U-Special. I learnt that the hard way. You feel sad when the book ends, coz you're not ready to let go just as yet. You wish you'd known someone like Morrie, to help you prioritise things accordingly to what really matters. You want to hold him and laugh with him and learn to cry unabashedly when things go wrong. You want him to tell you if you've been running after the wrong things all along. But most of all you want to cherish everything you have, and value the people around you way more than that new car you've been wanting to buy.

Thank you Morrie, for coming into my life, however brief a period it might have been for.
