Life

8 Replies

One of my favourite quotes from Calvin & Hobbes is ‘That’s one of the remarkable things about life. It’s never so bad that it can’t get worse.’ This can really help one to look at the current condition in a positive way and help them comfort themselves. But how would you feel when every time just as you try to somehow make yourself appear cheerful despite all the problems, life makes it a point to keep showing that it really can become worse? How long do you think you will be able to take it all?

Time is said to be the best healing factor. But does time really heal? Yes time does help one accept things, those things which you never even imagined you would be able to bear, and move on with life. So is healing all about just finally being able to accept things in life?

Why ban mobile phones??

One of the engineering colleges in Chennai has this rule that says that students are not allowed to have mobile phones with them when they are inside the campus. This rule is applicable to those staying in hostel too. So when someone wants to contact a student staying in hostel they have to call the phone number given by the college. Now here’s where the problem comes.

Blogger’s Block

5 Replies

I am hating it! 3 long months and still the block just doesn’t seem to go away! This is the reason for the long gaps between posts during the last 3 months. I write 2-3 posts continuously and after that this block seems to come all of a sudden out of nowhere! There are so many half-written posts in my drafts that I have not been able to complete! I really hope that this block goes away soon! Incidentally, I realized while intro/retrospecting, about which I had mentioned in my previous post, that this was also one of the reasons for my boredom!

Good Morning!

Hey All! Good Morning!

Having had to read quite a few times about me being bored, I guess it would be a good change for you to read that it has been more than a week since my boredom went away! So how did I beat the boredom? All I did was a little introspection/retrospection/whatever and before I knew it, I was out of boredom! Rather, boredom was out of me. 😛

Anna University Counselling

Last week, my cousin had her engineering admission counselling and I went with her. Though I don’t remember much about my counselling (Thinking about the fact that it happened six long years back makes me feel old. 😛 ), all I can tell you is it was well-organized. This year too, it was very well-organized. In fact, I would say that in the recent times, I don’t remember seeing anything that was as well-organized as this.

Sleeeeepy :(

Having had a disturbed sleep yesterday night, seeing how nice the weather was, I thought I will catch up with the much-needed sleep during the bus journey to work today. 😛 I got into the bus with the hope of finding a comfy seat only to see that the bus was full and there were no empty seats at all! Imagine my plight when I realized that I had to keep standing during the entire 35-40 minute journey! 🙁 Poor me! See naan evLo kashtapattu officeku varaen! 😛

Bored

24 Replies

Ask my parents, sister and cousins and they will all tell you that the one word that I have been constantly using ever since childhood is bored! But I have been down with real boredom only during the last few months. These days, I often get so very bored, like how I am right now! There are a dozen things to do yet I don’t feel like doing any of those. 😐 I want to do something new and really interesting so that boredom is driven away. Any suggestions?

Chat – 2

After that, it’s really a good change to chat with a friend after quite sometime and when both of you have lots to talk about like good old times and the chat ends, you are left wishing that the chat could go on for some more time!
