Those hours

It doesn't stop,does it? Oh,what on earth could stop it? Staring at the blackboard doesn't work; gazing out of the window doesn't work either.Counting the hair on the head of the person sitting in front of you, is another bad idea...May be sheep would do a better job. But how do you count sheeps with your eyes open? May be taking notes would help, but believe me you can find the world's weirdest handwriting on my book, it looks like chinglish :P ... May be messaging can stop the inevitable. But ahoy, can't waste the precious messages: only 100 a day :( May be reading a novel would help, but don't you think the prof can differentiate a novel and a book?
So I succumb. I bow down to the power of sleep and enter the nether worlds.Just then I am woken up by the prof who asks me , "Would you like some tea? " ...Haha as if I would refuse... I say sorry and sit down.
What was I sorry for?May be for not being able to interpret what he wants to say in the class between his oks and ahems. And there I sit, staring wide and trying to prevent IT again!! Does it ever realise how much embarrassment it has caused me? But it still returns like a true love :P ? What follows is history ...or may be just boring routine.The good bell ringing is most of the times a saviour. The Dream world beckons only during lectures otherwise its as fresh as if I swam in a fresh lake, even just after the prof exits.
I ll always wonder what is the mystery of this!!

When flab becomes fad....

Well while an increased waistline seems to be a nightmare for many; here's the good news: looking at the recent trends says it may not be so bad to be on the slightly chubbier side...Look at Vidya balan in the Dirty picture :P ...Or better yet look at those guys drooling over her... well ahem...
Even otherwise I've wondered when did the obsession with size zero or almost zero start among normal people (well models were eternally doomed to be size zeros and negatives if possible :P) Being fit is never wrong but when did thinner become equivalent to fitter?Well yesteryear's healthy beauties never looked famished...Be it Madhuri Dixit,Madhu Bala or Marilyn Monroe for that matter :P
Does a perfect size have the right to take away the pleasure of gorging on fresh cheese cakes? Can relishing swiss/belgian chocolates ever become a crime ;) ?
But making sure your clothes always fit you ain't wrong either...Btw jeans r meant to last forever, so buy them to your right size :P
Anyways, the silly me will always wonder how does the girl sitting next to me ,in the mess hall, survive on 1 and a half chappathis :) ;)

Riverside

There flows the river and I stand by its side, wondering why it flows, often without a ride;
I look through the waters to see myself clear, but I just see a running image as if I am not here;
Then a voice asks me: Is this what you learnt in the years you lived by?
There is no reason for every single season;
This is mighty nature and the pattern of its life: simple,serene and uncomplicated ....
