Universe, Time travel and me

“Universe has a way of course correcting to preserve something that is meant to happen in the future.”
When I read this for the first time I didn’t really buy this time travel theory. Just the idea that our future is ordained by the destiny or it is pre-defined is something like having a blind belief that God exists or believing if one goes to shani mandir every Saturday he will never ever flunk. I used to like the theory which says “history is the sum of all time-travels”. It may be because; I wanna believe that I everythin I do has an impact in one way or the other, whatever I am doing is not completely futile…

But my beliefs were shaken because of a recent incident….

Every-time I used to open the book, the electricity bailed! This has happened way too many times(5 times-to-be-exact) in this week.One more interesting observation: The electricity goes only on the day before my exam.
5 times in 3 days(that too in time period ‘10pm to 2 am’ during which I study) makes it way more than random coincidence.
May be, I am not suppose to study…

May be, Universe really has a way of course correcting to preserve something that is meant to happen.

Its almost 2am.. Exactly 12 hours remaining for my EM paper.. And I have barely started studying. I am in a mood to do anything but reading the pointless things(which should have been covered in FY syllabus) from a book by Helfric and Cooper.

On a very irrelevant(or not!) note: I love day-dreaming :D
and pencil shading...
and listening to The Beatles...
and blogging...
and talking on the phone...
and aimless surfing...
and (I think I am forgetting few things! The list isn't suppose to be this small!! )

It all started with Extras...

Every episode used to end on a mystic note...
"Bring tea for the Tillerman
Steak for the sun
Wine for the woman who made the rain come
Seagulls sing your hearts away
'Cause while the sinners sin, the children play

Oh Lord how they play and play
For that happy day, for that happy day"

and now I obsessed with a guy then known as Cat Stevens....

I have had enough....

....of spam!!

I mean its irritating as it is to delete few e-mails every day, few comments/messages on the socializing communities like Facebook or Orkut, few comments on the blog[:P]…

But now they are encroaching upon the territory of my beloved mobile world. Well, the messages or the calls from the service provider cannot be (technically)classified as spam, but noone is up for unsolicited advice on how to win prizes worth 1 lakhs, especially when loud ringing n vibrating thing pops in your dream-land and ruins your one of the best dreams. I also understand how to please(?!!) my callers using dialer tones when I am told once. There is no need for reminding me about that every day. And to add my on-going-frustration there are multi-media messages! Hello! I am not interested in downloading images of any actors / actress / models / sport-figures doing any unspeakable / frowned upon / highly over-rated(when-actually-it-is-not-that-big-deal) / just-done-to-get-publicity-kind-of act!

So QUIT bothering me!!!

Edit_1:
I will fondly think of the days- when the beep of my phone used to make me think that I am being remembered by someone I know...

Confessions of a "soon to be an Engineer”

Exams are barely few days away. Soon enough I will be an ‘Engineer’.

Its an end of era and a beginning of another.

Looking back, I remember all the fun-times, those careless moments. The times when the toughest decision you had to make was ‘to choose a flavor of the ice-cream’. The times when you know you are protected against everything in the whole wide world all the time. The times when you used to crawl up in mum’s lap after having a bad dream. The time you spent doing tp after school. The sleep-overs.. The times you spent doing lukkha-giri in college campus, during lects…

Then I gaze at the new world waiting for me through the looking glass. The thought of exploring it is very much enticing. I am really looking forward to break out of this cocoon surrounding me, and follow the path chosen by me.

But sometimes I wonder is this really what I want? And if its not this, what is it that I want?? Is it my dream??? Then a long forgotten dream materializes in my head one more time, and I laugh at myself. Not because I dreamed about it, but because how little I tried to make that dream come true. And then I realize that I never really wanted it..and I would have wondered about those so called different things, the same way I am thinking right now. Even that fact makes me sad. But just for a moment, until I realize that I have got all I really wanted in life. And there is really not much to complain about…

Then the reality(my mum) knocks on the door...that brings me back to present And I resume to my so called ‘studies’….
