Nostalgia !!


School and College days were the best days..


After entering professional life , there has never been looking back .The only breather is weekends , no long holidays provided I apply them myself and some rear long week ends .
It feels incredible when I am back into College days enjoying the holidays. I get nostalgic sometimes.
I get those pictures of myself hiding behind library shelves, mechanical labs after bunking classes and somehow manage to break out from the class and enter cafeteria. I remember those days when we hanged out on the stair case near the class and felt it was the best place to hang out. Checking out everyone who passes by and passing weird comments and giggling for nothing. Trying to impress professors by asking senseless doubts. I was a little crazier to even randomly pick a problem from book and ask the professor to solve it. Fighting and quarrelling for 0.5 marks in a exam paper. Discussing answers after the examination just outside the exam hall and regretting for making stupid mistakes. Crossing fingers just before the results are announced, pray god for that damn 35!!
Getting ragged was fun as well. I enjoyed combating with seniors because they tried to rag my friend and ended up preparing lemon juice for them. I cribbed for one week when some senior of mine just grabbed gobi manchoori from my plate . I loved the way we freaked out during a rock show in our college. Enjoyed some boring classes by passing chits among friends in the class. Playing SMS SMS in class, finishing the lunch right infront of the professor , dropping the lunch box down the floor and looking at one another’s face and behaving as innocent kids . I was so perfect that I would stuff the food into my mouth but I was scared to chew it, funny wasn’t it ?.
Discussing some non sense stuff with friends , hanging out all night long and naming it combined study. I was so bad in night study that once to win a bet against a friend I had to literally hold my eyes open using my hand so that I won’t snooze . I hated these ethnic days as I really don’t know to wear a saree and it was the worst thing to happen . I used to wonder how girls ever survived in those saree. I have literally commented on every girl and their costume!! Trust me it was fun.
Small crushes and heart breaks were a part of these awesome days. Secret angels and its horrible effects, rose days and its gossips were just so pleasurable. College days will remain golden forever.
One step back and school days were little crazier. I had literally wounded every other person in my class. Piercing in to a guy’s face to prove him that my pencil was shaper than his, Tearing a boy’s book into pieces just because he spoke negative about my hand writing. I acted like a bond in the class!!. Home works were a punishment and I don’t remember a day when i have completed any of them. All day I sat in the back bench and ate chocolates and drew circles in my book and got near zeroes in exams. Followed were blasting from parents which was clearly ignored by my senses. I have no idea how I changed but thanks for the change. My school days were rocking too!!

Lost Love

Walking down in your life we meet many people. Some people leave an impression and some don’t. Some walk with you , some stay back and some go ahead. But there is one person who will continue to be with you forever. At least promises to be with you forever.
Life has never been simple and not all are fortunate enough to find the love of their life easily. There is a small story that I came across off late . This is about a person , this person found the Love of his life very easily . Had few conversations and realized that this must be the one . I cannot define exactly but some circumstances arose that did not let this feelings continue. The external forces were strong enough to stop this entirely. The external forces won and the love failed. This person continued to move further on, persuaded himself that it was nothing more than a dreadful choice. The circumstances were never content, they had to play a little further, they can change their behavior as they need and this time they recreated the special feelings again between the couple. The external force again came into light and there was one more victory feather added into the external force crown.
Days or rather years passed and one day this person thought for himself, he recalled his old memories and thought there must be some strong force behind which pulled him to that girl over again and again . May be destiny wanted them to be together but destiny never wanted the external forces to be beaten. Sometimes destiny is more mystified than we human beings.
On the other side the girl, the lost love of this person constantly loved this person irrespective of the effects of external force. The victory of neither external force nor any other force stopped her.
This is a point where destiny has got them together again with the external force . This time the victory will be ……..
This plot has been taken from a great movie , mixed with some known and unknown facts . If possible guess the movie . I have left the victory part blank as I need to evaluate whether LOVE should win or the external force and if they can fuse.

Erratic climate!!!

It’s been two months in US now. Far from my country, trying to enjoy my stay here. Trying to overcome the time zone difference, still in the process of overcoming jet lag.
When I came here the climate was freezing. It was very difficult for me to tolerate temperature of range -25 to -30 degree Centigrade. Then snow started melting, the temperature came close to 0 . Then there was showers sprayed by god , it rained day and night. It poured and pored for almost 3 to 4 days nonstop. As a consequence we faced floods. After the flood now the temperature is good and is close to 8 degree centigrade.
Being from a city like Bangalore where the climate is really fair I have witnessed all kinds of extreme climatic conditions in just a span of two months and it feels good that I was victorious in overcoming these dramatic changes. Human body is miraculous isn’t it?
