Big Saturday

After few life changing decisions I made on over the week with mixed results, Saturday happened to be a perfect day for me go out and meet few friends. I met my best buddies Sharan and Nandini at Casablanka (Near BDA Complex). Somehow, of all the people I’ve met in my short life till now, these both (along with many others) have remained so close to me.

For over an hour, I poured my heart out to both of them – things to do with my personal life, issues I am currently facing because I wanted to be good to everyone (Sometimes, you just have to choose between people!) and how my life was so totally messed up! Like most others, when we talk to our friends we don’t need their advice for we know what’s the best thing to do. I just wanted them to listen to me and somehow i feel these both nuts understand that and lend me their ear every single time.

Sharan and me then ate sandwiches and drank coffee, while not stopping ourselves from scooping out some DBC from Nandini’s bowl. Though I’ve been to Casablanka once, I really love this place. The place serves good food and the ambience lets me relax. While we were returning, my others friends Nick and Dumbo, called me up and I promised I’ll meet them at Kalmane Coffee in Forum by 18:00. When i reached the place, i realized they’ve turned the cafe upside down. It no longer had a cosy sofa in the corner. We had to struggle box-looking cushions. But who cares. The coffee is cheap and we get to spend tons of time without getting kicking out. The next couple of hours was spent talking about relationships with Nick playing judge.

There’s something about Nick that makes me really like her. She’s bold and fragile, both at the same time. Its tough to argue with her, yet I’m so comfortable talking to her. She’s sure among my best buddies now! And my Dumbo is so central to my life. She loves me more than anyone else does and its not too often to get to meet people like her. After I said goodbye, I strangely wanted to go to Landmark and browse through books. I personally have so many books at home that I was worried, that i’ll end up buying more. I am so addicted to shopping for books.

I picked up a book called “Real Estate Investing for Dummies!” and a CD Pouch that’ll let me keep 96 discs at one place. Just when i hit the billing section did i realize thats its a weekend. There were atleast 100 people waiting to get their stuff billed. I walked back and put the things back where they belonged. I reached home and spoke to Dumbo again. Things are fine, for the time being atleast. Pray it lasts forever.

Love
Sen

Rewind and Play

I recently watched Ashton Kutcher’s movie ‘The Butterfly Effect’. There hasn’t been a movie in recent times that got me so involved. It is not because I found the actors in the movie or their performances terrific, but rather because I loved what the movie had to say – the smallest of decisions you make today will change what you are in the days to come. While Kutcher could read his journals to mend his life, I could only sleep and wish I did things differently.

After the movie got over, I kept wondering about things I wish I could change in my life that would have made me be in a better situation today. Now I don’t mean to say that my life is messed up or that there are tons of things I wish I could change. Yet at the same time one cannot deny the fact that each one carries a fat bag filled with wrong decisions one made over time. Here are the list of things I wish I had done differently –

· During the last year of my school, I stood for elections to be elected Prefect for one of the school houses. Prior to the elections, I was a nice guy who did well academically and took part in events. While I eventually did win the election, I lost my senses. I turned out to be one of the worst house Prefect ever. I chose who deserved to get opportunities to take part in house events and hardly bothered to work for the common good. My house lost horribly at every possible event. The co-prefect hated me. By the time I realized how much I had stooped my school life was long over. I so wish I had never stood for that wretched election.

· Wish I never met this girl called ‘the Beautiful one’. While I loved every second I spent with her, she ended up messing my whole life, my friendship with my best buddy, spoilt my name and left my heart scarred!

· Wish I had chosen Science over Management while at College. Nothing is more interesting that Science.

· Wish I had not lost so many of my good friends. Basically people hate me at times and just turn away :(

· Wish I never had so many crushes :)

· Wish I never wrote this post!

Pssst, I cannot think of anything else as of now. Will update this post when I can.

What would have happened if..

What would have happened if a week had four Sundays?

What would have happened if earth had just had only men?

What would have happened if we never had to eat?

What would have happened if we never got old?

What would have happened if all the above did happen?

Confused
