It's about time !

Yayy!! another semester is about to end. I'm just one short of giving my final exams, phew! I've had such an insane and inhumane date sheet this time, 5 papers back to back within a span of 20 hours each. And the worst part, I've a 5 day break for my last exam XD. So my routine was pretty much about study, food and sleep( in that order). This was not particularly new to me because we are used to such stuff but the intensity was too much this time. And whatever happened to my resolution of ' I shall study this thoroughly for end sem. has been put to rest. How can you even possibly imagine to use your brain and look for some logic and reasoning for the poor last and second last subjects!! May they vanish away in peace -_-

Apart from that, it has been such an eventful sem. I met loads of new people and enjoyed their company a lot, probably because of the same interests and likes (the foremost reason we got close). These very people brought a sense of stability, which was missing for sometime. And this makes me say that though we are in constant touch of each other via social networks and stuff; we should all know the difference between the people who are really concerned and those who have nothing else to say when you meet them in person. It's just a week or so before I pack my bags once again to go for home, this time for a longer period (training sem ahead). I have had an every bit of experience at this hostel this year and as all good things come to an end I too have an inevitable task of vacating my room, study corner and MY SPACE of 1 year.

# And a very common message these days I get to see while accessing anything on net -
“This is a message from the IT Department. This site will remain inaccessible during exam period. It is listed as a site within the category Student Filter.” Seriously, have they not heard about proxy servers or what :D :D

Summed it up All :D

It has been quite sometime since  I've posted something on the blog. A self conscious decis io n of being regular , I could not keep up with, ugh! Blogger tells me my last post was 2 nd August, t hat’s roughly 5 months : O I had my training sem. so I got to enjoy a decent time at home. And in these months I've met so many people- my age, seniors, super seniors; learnt, heard, did so much of new stuff that I actually ended up enjoying it :D Has anything considerably changed in this time? On a minuscule scale, NO, B UT (yes, the inevitable one) I feel I 've become more aware of the person that I see myself as. H ow I am to describe what I feel? “It feels like everything's been decided in advance that I'm following a path somebody else has already mapped out for me. It doesn't matter how much I think things over, how much effort I put into it. In fact, the harder I try, the more I lose my sense of who I am. It's like my identity's an orbit that I...

Empathy is the soul of Humanity

I am a student from India who has been oscillating betwixt Germany and France for over two years now, as part of my higher education. I am proud of my roots, the culture which I have inherited, the many customs and traditions that I’ve been exposed to as part of my growing years and the better sense of judgement that has come along with it, unknowingly.  Until one day, when I consciously made a decision to throw myself into a civilization that is far different from ours, both in terms of customs and social interaction. The first few months had been taxing; I noticed I was very observant and somehow critical of almost everything around me. I found people rude when I constantly heard them abhorring me for not speaking their ‘national’ language, the announcements on trains made no sense to me, grocery shopping felt like a dreadful task and so on. But one fine day, when my classes resumed I realized that almost all of us, including the students from the aforementioned countries wer...

The madness called Gurugram

Now that I am no more a “Grameen” < self inducted word in vocab> i.e. a resident of Gurugram, it is good time to reflect. There has not been a single day where I have not loathed, despised and whined about this place. I ensured that almost everybody knew how pathetic a city can be. Well, I had to do nothing really. The city Metropolitan area ensured from time to time that it got the much needed attention, itself. From frequent power cuts, to unstable wi-fi, to poor network reception, to water logged streets, to forever smoggy hazy weather update by Google, to the perennial dust due to construction, and the inevitable traffic snarls- Gurugram had it all, and most of the times- All At Once! People suggested me to move to Noida but LOL that’s like choosing between the devil and the deep sea. As I sit cozy now, with all the time in hand and a trail of endless thoughts, I am inclined to think that the person that I’ve become in the past 2 years, to a great extent I’m shaped by t...
