Yes! Helplessly Hoping…. That’s what the last couple of days have been. Helplessly hoping for the rains, Helplessly Hoping for my flight tickets to arrive & Helplessly Hoping for a message or a call from someone. Amazingly, I have managed to find a solution for the first. http://www.rainymood.com/- offers you an escape from this unbearable heat and sweat into an alternate world of peace and relaxation. I have no solution for the other two.

My second post
How often does it happen to you that a seemingly productive day ends up with you and a friend engaging in unadulterated “bakar” mind you not on Gtalk but DC chat? Chances are one in a hundred. Today was one of those rare occasions when I discovered hitherto unexplored techniques of time wastage. But then the entire third year has been very kind to me in that sense. I’ve indulged in so many new things, seen myself in shades both murky & bright that I never thought lay inside me. Limits have been stretched, boundaries erased , new territories conquered albeit of a dangerous kind. And most importantly perceptions or rather misconceptions about these perceptions have been cleared once and for all.
The last 10 months have been a whirlwind ride filled with laughter, love gained and love lost, success and heartbreaks. Perhaps the most significant achievement after coming to college happened on the way that kind of makes up for every other disappointment and debacle.
Friendship acquired an altogether different meaning with the realization of being in the midst of a crazy but insanely talented bunch of guys. An underdog rose to the occasion and forever cemented his place in the Hall Of Fame. A genius made peace with that four letter word that has a funny way of leaving us all stumped- LUCK. A romantic finally found his angel & muse( don’t worry they are the same). Two strangers in particular stole my heart with their simplicity and affability. What did I do? I fell in love or atleast I would like to believe so. Bells did not ring in my head neither did I see the colours of the rainbow on a cloudy sky. But there was something. It demands an entirely independent paean written in it’s honour. So I’ll talk about it later. It’s 3:30 already- the beginning of the one hour window when sleeps comes to me easily. So, I better be off.
