Navigating Solutions and Darkness

Written May 31, 2010 Spoiler Alert: the roof fell in, and I fell off.  Does anyone know where I am tonight??? Search for me everywhere, search, and you won't find. 'Cause you don't know where to look for me tonight. Look out the window, and ask the wind, that know it all. No? Oh well, dip into facebook, and all the other chatrooms. It's past midnight, and there are plenty of people out there. No? Check the beaches, and lovers' corners. Tap into late night conversation between friends, lovers, or ex- lovers. No? Check the kitchen, is the fridge open, any signs of a midnight snack? Check the church, am I out there, stalking some cute guy or the other? No. Check with my ipod, does it know where I am? My novel lies open on the couch, abandoned. The TV remote lies next to it, all but forgotten. Check with my pillow, why am I still awake in the wee hours of the morning?

I suppose the centuries of evolutionary training encoded into their genes tends to give them an edge. While my train is going the Derail way to Destruction, i'm glad and proud to report that my Cafe in Facebook's Cafe World is flourishing. Oyez... apparently some things aren't meant to be changed. And the question is, do I lie down and take the prospect of  Mediocrity for all Eternity ...

Written April 29, 2010, on the occasion of preparing for CLAT 2010 It's kinda stupid that so far, this year, I've posted just  once . I mean, what with the whole end of school thing going, and the beginning of freedom (I wish!!!); you'd think I'd be obliged to blog more often. This must be what they were referring to at school when they talked about the  inverse square  law. Ah well. I suppose it was mere wishful thinking on my part to think, even for a second, that the pressure would be off post- Board Exams. No such luck. I suppose I should just be thanking my stars that I don't have to do 7 hours, 5 days a week. Now its just 4 hours thrice a week. But this time I can't wriggle out of my obligations citing non- inclination towards what I'm doing. And with barely two days left... I'm facing yet another race against time.
