Europe or bust.

once upon a time,a friend and myself made a resolution of packing our bags and setting off on a mission of exploring europe.the not-so-mysterious continent.one of the reasons i like myself is the fact that i agreed to be party to this teenage fantasy when i so bloody well know,i dont have a passsport yet.and my ssc certificate isnt proof enough of me being a harmless Indian.
once upon a time would actually imply 4 months back.not that i have a passport..but a lot has changed since.for instance,the idea of the outting is so at the back of our minds it's slipping down my medulla oblongata.for another,i'm slightly less interested than i was in the whole idea. i mean,the hardcore desi i am,why not look around in our vast adda instead of globe trotting and adding moolah to their piggie banks?
what makes it worse is that as of today, i'm better equipped than before in going out and being what i always dreamed of.smart (that's my opinion of myself regardless of what others think),rich(-er than what i was 4 months back, n that aint saying much),owner of a guitar (i bought it outta my pocket money..hah!),a goddamned beautiful camera and with enough post-it notes 2 cover 4 refrigerators (do ppl stick them on those neway?).
to add to the lists of 'why-i-shouldn't-b-going', is the mere fact that i think i've got more important things to attend to back here at home for me to choose a Europian getaway.makes me feel irresponsible actually.i'm the last bit of sanity left in this place (only in my opinion,of course).like who'll take the dog down to piddle in the morning?and,more importantly,who's gonna solve sudoku?well no,there are important things i cant leave behind,and getting outta the country isn't my idea of tackling stuff.what if just for a by then well-deserved vacation?
Europe may be the continent of snow and football and churches and an awesome religious heritage.but for some mundane reason,i'm simply not interested.that's called being frank to myself.if you take me to africa i'll probably be happier doing some huka muka dance than i ever will watching tall buildings.though i must admit the churches there intrigue me.courtesy:Dan Brown.the historical part is amazing of course,but how much of the holocaust can we actually relive?
the only europian i've ever been keen to learn about,is anne frank.all because she was a teenager who wrote diaries,got kissed 8 days before she was arrested,both first time but former more impotant,and died because of something she could possibly help.i wanted to read tht book.too bad its too expensive.Anne Frank was a girl who'd seen the same things as everyone else had,but the only one with the creativity to write it down having no idea how much fame it would fetch her posthumously.
And if i do change my mind and hop along to Europe,i'll let you know.but till then i just hope i survive the curiosity Anne Frank passed on to me about her own life.

there's not much i can tell u abt me.at least right now.i mean,there r times wen i do blab a lot.A LOT.but then ther r also the times wen i'd rather stay shut in my bedroom and hav no1 arnd me..
i'm not some1 people like at first sight.i wudnt blame u if u wanted 2 avoid me too.i'm jus dat way.
i'm shit lazy.
i like wierd stuff.like the smell of soles of unused new shoes,new notebooks,first rains..n i'm not saying tht jus bcoz other ppl think so.i really love first rains..gt a nasty baby-ish habit of crying during first rains.
i love sleeping.i talk helluva lot in my sleep.
i'm a gud learner.pick up pretty fast.picked up how 2 hurt people wid my words fastest.
i'm not insensitive.i'm nt sappy eithr.
i like funny people,ppl hu cn make me laugh.but i love people hu cn make me smile.and hardly ne1 does dat nowadays.
i like muzammil ibrahim.and SRK n akshay kumar.
i like staring outta windows,stargazing.reading.not studying.walking till i'm dead tired.running away from home occassionally.cooking for ppl.singing.staring at ugly me in the mirror.sleeping tight with my hair wet and the frog in my arms.completing journals.using log tables.painting.writing abt everything i want 2.being arnd for friends i cnt live widout.sitting on my window sill thinking abt how advanced the human race is for haing started from a unicellular form 2 now attempting,almost successfully to extract energy from distant stars.spending cash on friends.drinking orange juice.laughing so much my face aches.singing in the right note.rains.and some other stuff too.
i hardly get really angry...even less let people kno.kinda too openminded...i kno dat coz in on of these openminded days my brains fell out.i have my own idea of humour,and that's inclusive of lotta stuff.
i love dancing at parties,and concerts,and DJnites.and college fests.
dont expect me 2 sit and smile at everybody hu comes because i hav 2,i'll do it if i want 2.
i dont do things if i dnt feel like doing them.if i cnt be the empress of the world,so y dnt ppl lemme rule myself?
i hate people hu throw stuff on the road.like wrappers.that's plain stupid and irresponsible.and then u blame the BMC for nt keeping the place clean?evr stopped a rickshaw driver from spitting on the road?they call me capt.planet,and damn,i'm proud of it!
i like A.R.Rehman songs.ang gulzar lyrics.even better if they r picturised on Indian themes.i love my country,but dont hate others.i jus dnt have an opinion abt them.Indian 2 d core.love hindi.
i'm agnostic.bt if i evr had 2 start following any religion it'd b Hinduism.
my kinda people wait wid me aftr their class and chat on the stairs,like coming ovr for sandwiches and coffee,love singing.and do crazy things like fainting all over the place,saying 'dude',saying 'eeewww' in a very wierd way,dressng up in skirts wen they're nt supposed 2.doing stuff jus for the heck of it.i cnt stand ppl hu cnt take jokes wen they're nt meant 2 hurt.
i'm my own person.if i wer left alone in an empty universe,i'd probably make my own earth in it.but wud die of loneliness widout manasi,hormazd,rishanka,myron,mum and so many ppl.so i'd rather NOT b left in an empty universe!
