Okay, long time… well things have changed since the last time I blogged, then I looked at blogs as if they were the outlet to your clogged thoughts that needed to be shared because they eat you up from within (man I must have felt so British, right?), but now it seems that anyone with a laptop can start a blog churn out posts get ads and get money ( I’m not criticizing anyone, on the contrary that’s what I’m hoping!!) . Okay the last year has been umm different, basically I dropped a year to give the damn engineering entrances again, but trust me you learn very little life skills while preparing for IIT. What you do learn life skills from is a long distance relationship, a dad whose topped every exam he ever gave (even the ones at St. Stephens and IIM –A), a nagging mother who cooks to kill and a bitch of a best friend who thinks that every moment not spent abusing you is a moment wasted.
Well I would love to give you a blow by blow account of last year, but as my entire life can be summed up in half a dozen bullet points (half of which I have already forgotten), its difficult to look back and try to summarize about a year that went by in needlessly pondering over fat books that I’ll never see again (it feels so nice to write that!) Okay well atleast the four things that I did learn are:
- There’s more to life than what you hit your car into.
- Beer tastes better at this side of eighteen (its still illeagal though).
- There are three cube roots of 1.
- Read above.
On the whole not quite a lot…. And that is a valid explanation for why I am just rambling along and not sticking to any topic., I’ll try to blog regularly from now on though (just a bit of advice though, try betting on something else, like a dead horse!), about my life and the little incidents that make it exciting, and incase I do run out of such incidents I can obviously write songs and poems, in English that I obviously won’t understand and make myself sound like a 12 year old pregnant girl whose suffering is contained within my soul…. ( I can soo picture myself stooping to that level, man the day you stop reading stuff like that, people will stop writing it!!).
Me.

Rahul!
How come u didn't mention me anywhere as a part of your life last year.
Hmpphh! this makes me angry! :P
Welcome back!
Haven't heard much from you. I did visit this space for a while but I thought it had met it's end.
@Shivani:Thanks!
@Abhshek:Yeah, I thought so too. Wish I had your commitment towards blogging.
Hey Rahul, this post of yours makes me think you'd really appreciate (and perhaps want to be a part of) the workshops I organise, that are at least attempting to impart life skills and much more:)
