Revamp Required.

Interesting things seem to be happening all around. Just generally. On an unrelated note though, I've decided that what this blog needs is some happiness, some shine, some masala. It's too mundane, too emo for it to be my blog. I realised when a friend pointed it out to me, "It looks like all you do in life is philosophise. Be a little more human."

Moot is slightly hindering a complete revamp but this blog shall get a new lease of life soon. Very soon. Suggestions are always welcome although I can't promise they'll be incorporated :)

Be back soon!

Conspiracies.

So yesterday I talked about bucket lists et al. And today, just like that, work on mine started itself. Heh. It's plain amazing at times how the universe really does conspire. I have a sneaky feeling this is the beginning of my conspiracy. And it's oddly exciting. I don't know how it'll end up but for once, I'm game for whatever is in store. Bring it on, I say!

P.S. - Life really is a scheming little bitch. Just saying.

Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara.

Whatte movie, whatte day! Till yesterday, I never thought a movie could actually inspire me. But I guess that's the thing about epiphanies. You never know when you're going to have one. I had one yesterday. When I went for it, my mind was swirling with all the work I had, issues to be resolved, deadlines to be met. And then. *poof*

The way I see it, life is always the same. It's just perspective that changes it, makes it better or worse, worth living or dying for. And there's no point in having regrets. So if today you want to leave everything and take a day off, do it! If you want to tell someone you love them or even tell someone that they shouldn't have done something they did to you, do it! Let go. Don't worry about consequences, they'll take care of themselves.

Everyone has a bucket list. A list of things they want to do in their lifetime. Some seem within reach now, some are distant dreams. But until and unless you start work on your bucket list today, you'll never really get around to doing it. So even as the humdrum life goes on, take out time to do things you love. Things which make you happy. Do what your heart fancies. Zindagi na milegi dobara :)

P.S. - Bhatt, you're a crazy man. And one of the few people who seem to be bent upon doing everything I wrote above despite how ridiculous it may sound to others. Good going! :D

Continuum.

IInd year. Still feels a little unreal. And strangely, more overwhelming than first year seemed to be. Weird, right? I think it's probably a first trimester phenomenon. So many decisions to be taken for the year, so much happening simultaneously. The ironic bit is that I always used to be proud of my ability to handle difficult situations and sort out stuff in my head and untangle a huge mess and for the first time now, I'm beginning to question it. And all the while, time flies. And then of course there are the bigger questions which I'm trying to avoid for the moment. Where am I going, what am I doing, am I doing enough, blah blah blah! It's like a whirpool. But at the same time, I'm determined. To not let it affect me, to pull through. There are far bigger things in life that await and I don't want to get caught in these small trappings of life. Atleast not so soon. Marching on it is then. For now.

P.S. - Little joys just make my day. Heartfelt thanks kiddo, for that simple essay. Provided much need perspective :)

Chaos. Or not.

I feel chaotic. Literally. And trust me, it's weird, really weird. Like everything in your head is utterly messed up. So much to do, so many things to figure out. A little overwhelming actually. And this when I'm now entering second year. Gosh, first year was SO much crazier. And now I don't quite know what else to say because there's a tussle between the gazillion things in my head which are jumping out to be expressed in some form. I think I'll stop talking and go to sleep, brush everything under the carpet for now. Like always. Even though some part of me mocks the other for being such an escapist. That part will shut up for now because I need it to. Bleh. Night, folks.

P.S. - The Swell Season. Must listen. Super awesome.
