And so, I'm done with all labs.

My board pracs got over today. i finished a 3 hour paper in an hour and 15 minutes, I'm rather surprised myself.

Now, is a month left to boards, and a week left for 3rd prelim chem, which, sadly, i must write.

I may abscond from the blog and the comp vicinity in general to study.

But knowing me, i won't be able to resist the occasional break......

Cheers to me.

currently, i'm re-reading American Gods by Neil Gaiman. Why I mention this? because it is a fucken brilliant beyond brilliant book, so pick it up and READ.

THIS IS NOT ME

She was trembling.

She'd always wanted to be a journalist.

An artist, maybe. A photographer. But mostly a journalist.

She wanted it so bad, it actually hurt.

She couldn't wait for college, when her life would begin.

She was a science student.

She sat on the stairs, shivering, revising for her last ever Chem paper.12th std Boards. The exams that 'decide your life'.

"I'm gonna change streams after boards. I'm gonna do well, I'm gonna do a BMM, and I'll be so happy....."

It was almost her mantra.

She stepped into the exam room.

Put her bag away.

Wished her friends luck.

Waited.

Waited.

The question paper landed on her desk.

She scanned it feverishly....

Tears welled up in her eyes.

"what the..."

She put one hand in her pocket, raised the other to go to the washroom.

They found her dead in the first floor bathroom three hours later.The note was scrawled on the floor in ballpoint pen.

"I would have flunked.....And i was too scared to come so close to everything i'd ever wanted and then lose it. Sorry."

wrote this a coupla days ago in deep stress-panic. The whole story had just ploked into my head, i wanted to get it outa my system.

It kinda freaked me out. But it's quite good, as a short-fiction, so it's up here.

Groundbreaking proofs 2

In November, I posted S's almost flawlwss proof for why god is a woman.

"Listen up", Jan said. "He's got a proof now for why God is a man. Though he'll probably kill me if you post it."
Thus, of course, I'm posting it.
THe proof goes thus:

Consider rain to be the pee of God.
It doesn't rain everywhere at once, does it? Thus, rain is direction-specific.
Men can ain while they pee. Thus men's pee is direction specific.
Thus, God is a man.

To this, my (flawed) contradiction.

Let rain be the tears of God. Let cloudy days = bad mood of God.
Rain falls unexpectedly and erratically. When you're expecting it to fall, there's always a dark sky.
Women cry unexpectedly and erratically. When you know they're gonna cry, they're always in a bad mood.

Hence, God is a woman.

We're so jobless na?
Even better than our theo-gender theories is Rushi's theory, which if true, makes life very very sad.

Some boys.....

Some boys are infuriatingly sweet.
Some boys will insist you do not take cabs alone.
Some boys will drop you home in the rain even if it's wayyyy out of their way.
Who said chivalry is dead?

The writing on the....Ground. not wall.

J.J School of arts, Mumbai.
I'm bored, that's why this is up here.
And I like the idea. They should let us do this at our school.

and BACK to the grind.

I'm back.
The NID exam was by far the most fun and interesting exam i've written in my life.
And my three days in mumbai just made me want to live in the place, to study in Xaviers, made me want that life a little more.

And i'll get it.

NID entrance exam is on 4th jan, and so it follows that i'm in mumbai.
I got here at 6 am and called Di,we tried to surprise Rushi, but he got an intuitive flash i'd be there. bugger.
Spent most of the day at wali's. With Rushi. And Sahej. And Avik. And ooh babe.
It was fun. In a completely different and rather freaky way.
I'm happy. with no regrets. :)
