Since i am new to this blogging thing, i really wanted to put something up for Christmas but I couldn't get an inspiration to write. Finally, on the night of 25th when i sat for dinner with 10 other people it struck me.
I started wondering what Christmas was about for me, as an individual. Now i ain't Christian so that leaves out the holy part of it. But then i ain't Muslim either but i still get my Kheer on Id.
It was then i realized that this Holi, Diwali, Id, Christmas, Thanksgiving and all the other festivals that my folks back home get together for aren't just celebrated cause our religion directs us to. (Hell! I remember we once burst crackers on the Chinese new year ;) )
They are a means of escape!
An escape from the daily, tiresome routine and boring life... an escape from the "Normal"! Nobody remembered "the joys of sharing" , "the excitement of giving" or even "the gift of life"! those were just random words on random books.... naah! what we felt that day was pure, simple freedom! We celebrated a simple day of escape! We celebrated an opportunity to share it with other folks just like us! and above all We celebrated life!
and i guess that is what all such festivals are for..... these are days when we forget all our woes and troubles and for one day enjoy the life that has been gifted to us.... a day to be "thankful for" an opportunity to experience this life... and i figure that is the truest form of ----- :-)
MERRY CHRISTMAS FOLKS!!! :D
Keeping it simple and simpler. don't have much to say, just random brainstorms.

Stranded
While i am sitting at home this vacation season, i can't get rid of this creepy feeling of sheer nothingness. I have absolutely nothing to do and an ominous end of college life to look forward to. I keep hoping for something to happen that is gonna bring about this movie like twist in the tale.... till then i have this to say
In the silent turmoil
Of this ever-rushing life
In the tumultuous crowd
Of this metaphoric strife
I find myself Stranded!
In this rush to somewhere
The sheer pointless struggle
Where a single word of love
Tis difficult to smuggle
I find myself Stranded!
In this island of life
With humanoids teeming
I look up to the sky
Find myself suffocating
I find myself Stranded!
The hollow words of consolation
By a passing fellow soul
Feel little more than
The whispers of a ghoul
I find myself Stranded!
In silent pain
Out of a glimpse of hope
I stretch out my hand
At thin air I grope
I find myself Stranded!
I wait for the day
When a shadow so bright
Will come to my rescue
From this never ending night
Till then, I shall be Stranded!

Not A Nursery Rhyme
So this is something i came up with when i was recently asked this cliche question
"what do you wanna do next??"
PS: BE Sem-8 round the corner... sakoge?? ham engg banane wale hain! (LoL :P)
Twinkle-twinkle little star,
I wish I had a drinking bar!!
Babes and booze throughout the night,
Sticks and stones and pistol fights!!
How I wonder what you are,
Man! I’d love an F1 car :-)
No more ticket for dumb speed limits,
Bikini models and sensuous clicks!!

Up above the sky so high,
weed and grass to shoot me high :->
Ecstasy will keep me happy,
LSDs to keep me snappy!!

Like a diamond in the sky,
A bank robbery I wanna try :-P
No guards, no cops to catch my crime,
And no dude, this ain’t a nursery rhyme!!
