The best things in life...

come real slow.

as slow as 24 years sometimes. I finally got my own room today.I never imagined it would make me so happy,so satisfied.All along my teen years Ive longed for that elusive single,self decorated room.But it always remained a dream.If you too were born in a family of elder siblings,and very dominating ones at that,you would empathise with me.And as with other things I soon stopped caring about it totally.Hostel,Work and even during my first one year of independent living I was into not paying any heed into these so called trivial domestic concerns.But today I truly realise the bliss of having that little private space for myself.I am so happy I dont even want to rant about it anymore...I feel I have settled down in life..:)

typical school day~~~
u gape at the monitor,
even while taking a break
u indulge into polite enquires and strained acknowledgements,
just coz u need SOMEone to talk to
u visit the restroom umpteen times,
coz u wanna get the hell out of ur sickening table n chair
u keeping looking for things to eat,
dont know if its hunger or boredom
the only brightness around is on the other side of the windows,
for which u reserve that absent-minded cursory glance

i hate the only life I have,that sits on my desk and stares at me all day long

They say that patriotism is the last refuge
To which a scoundrel clings
Steal a little and they throw you in jail,
Steal a lot and they make you a king.
Theres only one more step from here baby,
Its called the land of permanent bliss.
Whats a sweetheart like you doing in a dump like this?

---Bob Dylan

I want to break free

Bye Juneth

The small townness of the town was getting to her.She felt like a complete misfit,like a left-over from the big city she hailed from.She usually let it passe by sleeping in late.This sunday she just couldnt.She trotted up to the busy grocery store a little earlier than usual.Amused herself peering onto other's overflowing carts,picked up a few things herself and promptly placed them back..'Do not yield thyself to temptation' she thought.Juneth was getting transfered she remembered.'Maybe i could buy a few beer cans ,drop over to his place n surprise.' she thought.She randomly picked up a few n very decisively moved to the counter...'For a change i could be show a little initiative today..he wasnt too bad a guy actually..He loved his nursery,the first time i went over...'
"I asked for ur ID mam'..(err excuse me!).
'Dont u have an ID with u?'The voice was grumpier this time.
'I didnt know..what for..which one..i have my library card..'she beamed
'Nope that wont do......nope social security neither.Im sorry if i cant sell u those beer cans without ur age-proof..u need to have a license...'

She grumbled over having had to drop her driving classes midway.What an irony you should not drink n drive but u need to drive to drink..hmm...What a week anti-climax.She thought she could go get some more sleep instead.

n yet another one...
