NOSTALGIA

Its the end of another phase for me, as i'm almost about to finish my engineering degree and move onto the next chapter in my life..
But as usual, just like every other end, there's that irrepressible feeling of nostalgia that just cant be quashed. A million memories come flooding in, accompanied by wishes and what-ifs. Of things that were, and things that could have been. And things that just didn't happen. And then there were those which just happened!!!!

Looking back, things are always different. If there's one thing that time does, apart from moving the clock, it makes us wiser by the second. It keeps changing our perspectives, needs and desires. What might once have been the one thing you wanted the most, seems to be pretty silly later down the line. And what looked like a mountain before, just dissolves into nothingness. Time , I tell you, is one heck of a catalyst...

All in all, I'm gonna miss my engineering days. I'm gonna miss the day dreaming, the endless laziness, the lighthearted chit chat and that unbelievable feeling of peace. I am sure I'l still have all these things with me later on, but it just wont be the same...

I'm gonna miss playing pranks, I'm gonna miss going trips and sometimes quadruples on my karizma, I'm gonna miss those frequent trips for ice cream and food with friends. And what I;m gonna miss are my spur of the moment trips which have always remained in my memories. No knowing if I'l get the same kind of leisure later on..

I've learnt a lot in engineering though, of course I'm talking about out of class stuff ;) . So many experiences and so many lessons.. It just wont be the same anymore.

But eventually, everyone will learn to move on. People steel their hearts, suppress their desires and wishes and move forward. But the funniest thing is that despite moving away, everyone will definitely have left a bit of themselves within everyone they meet. And that's whats gonna remain within everyone for ever.

I suck at saying goodbyes and pretty much hate it too. But one way or the other, its ADIOS to engineering after one month, and on with the next stage of my life, IIMB...

I have my fingers crossed guys, despite moving apart, I'm pretty sure all of our paths will coincide again. 

See you somewhere on the shores of time. 

Till then,

Its a late goodbye....

salvation !

lights flash by
and noises roar...
the sky becons
as you yearn for more!!!

the wind blows around,
round and round...
you are lifted of your feet,
as you wonder aloud...

of glistening thoughts,
conflicting sounds...
ideas that fight,
the ones that are hollow...

the world goes by,
its a murky road...
fog descends,
making silence even more profound...

the world abandons,
things are haywire...
as thoughts clash,
dreams they inspire...

dreams fade,
they die a lonely death..
yet new are born,
who are yet to see the wreath...

its a whirlwind of sand,
as none can take a stand..
the windchimes sing rock n roll!!!
as they hear thier endings toll!!

spinning round, round and round,
in a world that has no sound....
light beckons, it calls aloud,
illumination, the joy profound!!!!!

unfinished!!....

The rain pattered down in a murky haze....
puddles of water, rivulets forming a maze.....
The watery curtain, unrelenting and unshakable,
was torn apart as angry vehicles made their way....

People ran , looking for cover,
the wind smelled of mud, grass and  flower...
The whole world was blurred, dizzy and mired!
Looking out of the window,
trying to see what in the world had transpired!

The misty windows stood, white and quiet,
when chaos reigned on the other side....
Confusingly warm it was, inside the 4 walls,
hiding the chill and the frozen catcalls!

Time stood still as each drop made its way,
every trickle making patterns on the window pane....
The wind blew life into the world,
breathing freshness into everyone!

Endless life...

Far beyond the mountains ,

In a reality far away,

Hidden behind the mist of greed,

There lay the plain of life.....

Green and wide the plains stretched out….

With silvery clouds looking down the lonely path,

The wind blew mighty and violent….

The grass bent as waves of air flatter them,

Peace is omnipresent yet lost forever…..

Shadow falls,

Day turns to night…

The moon sneaks out ,

Silent and quiet….

The wind blows again,

Lashing at the grass….

The grass bows down,

Swallowing the fury it hath….

Night turns to day ,

Life goes on….

The mountains grow,

They grow tall….

The grass stretches on,

For miles and miles without a frown….

Only the wind batters down,

On and on …

On and on….

Blink and Gone!

 The open skies.. The empty seas... The grassy plains.. The misty mountains....

 The world is beautiful. Each time you turn around a corner, you see a scenario never seen before! Thats what makes the world interesting, unpredictability.

 Einstein once famously declared ' GOD DOES NOT PLAY DICE WITH THE UNIVERSE!'. He was probably referring to  the idea that everything in the world has an explanation and that nothing is out of the normal. And he's right! Things do make sense. If something is confusing, eventually it will be explained with the passage of time.

 But one slight flaw with our existence in this universe, is that we live for only a short period of time. If you look at it relatively, in terms of the universe, we probably dont even exist for even a pico second! To put it short, We dont have much time. Our existence is only momentary. We are like a frothy bubble on a wave which will eventually disappear.

 We donot even have the time to look around our own planet , let alone the universe. But I wish there was some way we could break free of our earthly shackles and go on a tour of the universe. It would be awesome! Imagine going around from one galaxy to the other, maybe meeting a couple of extra terrestrials on the way! Or maybe go to the center of the universe and check out if there actually is a humoungous blackhole there! Or maybe a blackhole is actually a drain/portal to some other plane/realm or dimension! What if there were millions of alternate universes?! How would we be in them?

 Haven't you ever wondered whats the reason of your existence? Are we here for a reason? Because , as Einstein says, nothing is left to chance. So whats the reason for us being here? Or are we just a flickering by-product of a cosmic reaction?

 You see, we can never answer these questions because of one simple reason: We dont have much time!. We never saw the beginning of the universe. We will probably never see the end of it either! To put a long story short, we have no data to decide, simply because we dont have enough time to collect the data itself.

 But despite the short time-frame we have, the world is beautiful - we are constantly surrounded by wonders and surprises. We are never bored!

 I would certainly love to hear the story of the universe. To go across the universe , investigate its length and breadth! ( Universe might even be a sphere for all we know!). But who is there to recite the tale??


 I wish I had Green Lantern's ring!!!! (sigh!)

Balmy nights!

Todays the winter solstice!
the shortest day of the year!

And the moon today in the night sky is soo beautiful!!!
its soo big and pearly white today, right amongst a million stars!
and the sky is such a bluish heaven today!!!!
its almost like some kid who's really good at art just picked up his paint brush and drew the masterpiece....

to top it all off, its chillin cold outside....
with foggy breath comin out of your mouth everytime u speak!
tis the season of sweaters and warm nature!
the time of the year when u look around to find the world a beautiful place.....

its really dark outside, without a soul in sight..
its like the whole world is at peace!
and the moon just lights up the place
the wind is blowing through the grass with a gentle drag,

seriously , its such a wonderful sight....
the moon, the stars, the wind and the skies!
owls hootin as they watch the fireflies!
lonely hearts lookin at the sky!
the soft moonlight making u wanna soar and fly!!!!
the stars, they twinkle! they blink , flash and whisper,
they dance around the moon, who just sits and stares...
while the ground beneath, looks at the sky forever there....
the wind!, it blows, its silent and gentle.....
the grass moves apart, they are dancin at thier own jingle!!!!

the moon still shines, ever on.....
he's lovin the world , and he's lovin it big time!

boredom!!!

boredom!!!!
exactly what i've been experiencing in the recent days, weeks or maybe even months!!!!
there always comes a time when u r soo frustrated with the monotony around u , that u feel like going away from it all and appease your eyes on a better sight!!
but more often than not, its not that easy... !!! (grumble !@$!@$@% grumble! )

to put it straight, i am absolutely bored. bored to an extent where even boredom has started to bore me....

i believe that for a person to be happy and be mentally fit, he/she should be exposed to new situations and scenarios. persisting in the same settings and details not only causes lapse in your concentration, but also dulls your thinking and diminishes your brains computing powers..

in general, your brain/mind/sub-conscious whatever needs a change of scenery now and then.. if u keep your brains racking over the same thing again and again , and if u give it a moments escape to something else, and when u return your attention back to wht u were working before, u can easily observe that the concentration has improved.. so for concentrating, u need distractions.. lots of them!! as wierd and totally out of sorts this may sound, its true.


i badly need a holiday!!
