Not that I have much time to be "nostalgic" yet they just push its way through to the top of ur head.. you know.. these memories..
I started my life there.. Till then it was just a routine.. monotonous.. But college changed me.. or better yet, helped me know ME.. :-)
I remember reading a hell lot of books during school days, ofcourse not the textbooks :D just novels.. autobiographies.. poems.. short stories.. what not.. and our own balarama, balabhoomi et cetera.. :P It was a nice sweet world you know, the world i created with all the fictional characters to take care of me :D 24 X 7 :D
My parents being teachers by profession, strictly believed in the concept "You dont study, You better DIE" :D Yeah most parents believe in it but they did even more..
And I did study, yes.. I remember studying a hell lot. And rest of the time whoooooooshhhhhhhh.. into my world.. beautiful.. beautiful.. simple.. serene.. romantic.. heaven.. :-) books, my friends, I am talking about books :D
But what happens when you jump from that perfect virtual world.. to an imperfect real one?? one can only imagine :-) You tend to be stamped stupid.. over emotional.. unrealistic.. n what not!! If any of you are going through that phase.. my dear sweet friend, its just a matter of time, u perfect in the imperfections of this world. And there you are, all wise and knowing :D Trust me :-)
Definitely not a nice experience I would say, but the end result was pretty nice.. I started having a friends circle.. Who appreciated and criticized and teased and loved.. I dont remember books doing that :P I started seeing the world as it is.. instead of letting the world see me in a pile of books. Those days, I opened my eyes wide. Saw. Felt. Laughed. Cried. Shouted. I started "living".. :-)
Yet these occasional depressions continued to hit me. I would climb out of it, slow but yes out. But when I look back, I see nothing but happy memories :-)
I had my time off studies then.. In college :D I slept when I felt like.. Cut classes and slept :P Had food from the most expensive places. My dear dad n mom, I dint know it was ur blood n sweat I was spending so selflessly :P Oh yes I knew when I got my first salary :-P
Got placed in Infosys and UST global. I dont remember being much excited about it. just happy, yes. But thats a totally different story which i would love to fit in my next post :-) Infosys was one heaven I was lucky to have, with all my friends to hang out and be absolutely free..
Then my parents found a guy for me with an exceptionally large tummy and heart :-) He never can be satisfied by food, or love.. :D And I resigned.. Aiming high, for both his tummy and his heart :D Happily dumped my job, since it had turned into a nightmare after the training :D Now here I am, typing away the words on my laptop.. on my study table in our sweet heaven.. just 2 kms away from my college, where I am spending my second college life.. Its altogether different, I sleep with my guy everyday :P instead of the zillion books and clothes in my bed, which was the main attraction of our hostel back in B.Tech days :P
And I cook. Oh I cook. Poor guy. He eats. My M.Tech studies saves him sometimes, when I just dont get the time to make him eat all my food :P Maybe thats why, now he has started poking me, "Why dont you do PhD too?!"
Yeah Right. :P
