The tale of two nights

So often , life just takes you on a tour you are only too familiar with ...

June 23rd :
The night before i left for ahmedabad. After an "eventful" day , i had a night out and then took the train back home early morning. Sourish was there that night. And i had exactly 12 hours to wash my clothes and get them dried.

November 7th :
The night before i leave for ahmedabad (that is today) . Again after an "eventful" day with a test , a couple of assignment submissions and some other things , i had a night out (almost .. actually dozed off at 4 .. and then missed the 7 o' clock train) and then took a train back home. Sourish was in my room last night too, though only for a short time (given that he now has other things on his agenda ;-) ). The only difference being that today i just have 3 hours .. no clothes to wash .. in fact nothing to do .. so writing a post !!

Between the two above mentioned dates , a lot has happened . The most torturous semester has almost passed by (thankfully) , i have seen quite a few failures (which last year had been victories .. read illumination, debate) and for the first time ever ... i actually gave good exmas and didn't quite get the marks i thought i would !!! Well ..

And yet there remains things which just dont change ... things that you are too familiar with , some things you'd want to change but can't . And then you probably wonder .. maybe just let it remain the way it is .. after all "The heart is always wiser than the intellect" and something might happen 'before its too late'.

And now , i must hope that my presentation in ahmedabad is acceptable and i can return with full dignity. One thing's for sure , i am not going to get stuck there this time around no matter how much it rains !!! Because i am flying in and out :)

Which reminds me of my very first post on this blog "A Walk in the Clouds" ---

Oh !!! "So often , life just takes you on a tour you are only too familiar with ..."

all u need my friend is TIME, it is the best heal to ur wounds which seem invisible to "other" poeple. One has to be really selfish enough to have the guts to post such stuff at such time(before its too late) uuhhhh.....
abey u got to realize that u have many other avenues in life in which u can excel. Once u realize that the choice u made was not the right one ur life will be peace .
chal all the best for ur presentation... bye.
