Bad Romance
It has always been a secret fantasy of mine to face tumult in the relationship scenario in life. I may sound like “grapes are too sour”, but come to think of it, I’ve always thought it would be interesting to have either unrequited love, or have my partner cheat on me or me liking someone else while in a relationship and then facing the whole dilemma thing. I’ve always been...
'Complete Picture'
So, I don’t think it would be interesting to directly write about me, like I’m this and that and yadda and yadda. I’d rather reveal myself through my thought, perceptions, reactions to situations, long story short, indirectly. I feel like that would be a more genuine insight into me, although as Rushil says it’ll take a while to get a ‘complete picture’. But...
OK! I think this is becoming way too much of a journal, and I’m writing about drab mundane stuff.
But I guess it was ok to get me started.
From now on, I’m going to try and record only musings or insights or observations or something really significant that happened, rather than what I did all day.
Moreover, writing about all day can get boring to write about, plus way too long to...
So, here’s another long held belief: I feel like my life has distinctly defined stages that are in a way, themed. I’m not sure if I’m merely being delusional by forcing myself to believe that the songs, movies, people I come across are in sync with what I feel, or what’s been churning in my mind.
So, San Fransisco today! Fort Funston: probably saw every breed of the canine species that probably exists. And oh, “Good things come in pairs”! (Poor Skippy). Golden Gate, picture postcard perfect, Aanchal and Ankush bored seeing it and picture taking in front of it for the “80th time”.
Interesting piece of learning, while eating Tuscan Chicken Sandwiches wrapped in...
1:15, that’s what my phone in real life said. The phone in my mind said 2pm, and I was freaked, but I didn’t care, winter break is supposed to be restful right? Plus, it’s been almost 2 weeks here and I’ve eaten like what 2 breakfasts? Doesn’t make sense to feel bad about almost missing lunch too, that too on the 1st when everyone went to sleep at 4! It’s a...
Two oh one oh - Ringing it in
I rang in twenty ten with champagne, Empire State of Mind, the Times Square ball repeat telecasted on a Samsung LED at the one of the ‘Almaden kids’ house. These kids, merely claim to be ‘desi’ and look it. ABCD?! I’d say white! The guys drink Corona and talk football and play Call of Duty/Halo; they listen to Jai Ho (the Pussycat dolls version) and the girls, well,...
