Vignette 1
I love the wind in my face, wind in a pace enough to make my eyes shut themselves into a dreamy trip. Which is why I love traveling on bikes. Thanks to van, this happens every second or third day. last night was just one of those short trips to a pan shop and then to a sea face. Endless conversations, meaningless, inane and disjointed. If you have ever visited marine drive and sat at the end point of it, opposite the NCPA premises, you will know what I’m going to be talking about… we realized that the Queen’s necklace was so semi-circular from that perspective and so straight when one is actually traveling on the road that shapes the necklace. And this thought lead to a revelation: we are so small… one little spec of dirt. I know it’s a known and understood fact but the ‘gotchya-off-guard’ type revelations hit you where it hurts.

Finally got a DVD burner… it is the loveliest feeling for this time I put in my money that I had saved and had not taken any permission for it. I also got fired for it by dad and I was hurting all night after what he told me (which I will not go into, lest I dampen the excitement) but all in all, great feeling man. Bring on them DVDs…

Holidays are approaching fast. 22nd of this month is when they begin and I am in half a mind to run away to some city. Any suggestions on what one must do in such free time? I am quite annoyed with the fact that I will kill days like a ruthless, homicidal convict out on parole. Going to a place unvisited by me shall top the ‘to-do’ list but need backups.

Recently, (this Sunday to be precise) a group of friends from college managed a trip to Mocha at Churchgate. The journalism people hosted a nice party which pretty much fell flat on its face for the lack of attendance, post which nine of us felt like sitting around and not do much. At mocha, that night, we dwelt upon one another’s strengths and weaknesses and as far as I am concerned, it was a trip to reality (with a little icing and sugar nonetheless) which gave me a chance to have an insight about certain issues that need immediate attention. It was a brilliant time spent and invested if I may say so. the good part was, we were people who have not really had a nice time together outside the campus and this made a lot of difference. Not to mention, we succeeded in coupling up a few people for god-alone-knows-whatever reasons. Here’s one…

thank you for changing the way my name was spelt. :)
i posted on sunday's events too! read up. i'm in complete agreement... it was time more than well spent!
hehehe.......dam i don't trust you at ALL...i just HAD to check...hehehe....funny posts tho....strange how rotten days end up making me laugh.....
After reading all that...i can juz think of sayin two things:
1).The feeling of being so small in this universe and still having tho'ts of survival and being fit for the same bothers us so much...coz its abt our life...the one thing tht v value so much
2).Abt the 9 of u going to Mocha...i'd say...m sure u must hav had a nice time coz there r a few people in the class with whom,if u sit n talk,u feel u r talkin abt US(as friends,as one imp part of the class-the goup-the ADMA'05 family) and not only ME or YOu,the way u feel when smbody is tryin to brush u off ruthlessly juz bcoz he is scared of having u as a competitor(may b)...but all in all...m sure at the end of the year...we'll miss these days and the people around us...
Abt the party u had last night...I know u must hav intended to gather people so tth they can talk abt many things n not juz projects,the kinda get-together u had at mocha(face to face & one on one)...i dunno if u'd beleive me but i sincerely apologise for not turning up...but now i wish i'd hav come :(
-Enjoy yr DVDs,thts only good u can do to yrself aftr hearing smthign bittr,like i do ;)
