Contentment

its been quite some time since something struck this head of mine ..and 
thought i should express this one thought that has been just strolling in my extremely excited brain
it started about 4 days back .
its is pretty humane to feel a rush of excitement and i am quite human so i get excited a lot .
I remember that when i was a kid we used to travel to Punjab in trains and no matter
how bad the ride was gonna be (i ended up sick after most of em ) but i was never able to
sleep the night before the journey . The path was always the same old monotonous one and
so was the interior but, it never thwarted that excitement .
Gradually i became older and lost this excitement . There are always some feelings in life
which are forgotten because they get suppressed to extreme . Exempli gratia
that feeling of enjoying a lolly pop ..
how many of you readers remember it ... ?                               
#Gotcha ... 
anyways so coming back to the topic at hand
" four days back on thursday night that feeling of invigorating excitement came back .
I couldnt sleep the whole night regardless of how tired i was . My eyes just wouldnt stay shut. 
It was about 5 am and i fell asleep and woke up 45 minutes later without any feeling of prior alarms or stuff but,
I guess i knew why i couldnt sleep . That feeling was back for sure and
this time it was for the so called admission verification process .
Going for the final step to achieve what i wanted and for which my emotions were in chaos .
That document submission was probably the longest thing i ever underwent and after all 
that i had it in my hand.
My seat in one of the best Colleges for journalism and mass communication . "
after grabbing that the fatigue hit me and i wanted to fall down on a bed and
sleep to the content of my heart .. not that it needed any more contentment .
"i was dead tired that day .. you know the feeling after the accomplishment ? that was it ."

Happy Happy Calm

Today I had an unusual air of calm inside my lungs. Today I was in no hurry to get up and go to work, I knew that sleeping in 30 minutes more wont hurt anybody, I walked to the Metro train station in a long 10 minute walk (it takes me precisely 7 minutes to get to the station from my home) and i was fine, not put of breath in any way, I was subjected to the same unrelenting crowd of rajiv chowk and I didnt care. In the metro I didnt offer my seat to any (coz no one aged nor any woman in need appeared) as I got the seat during the last leg of my journey. I got to my workplace only to realize that I had left my key at home but, instead of calling everyone with the key to hurry to the workplace, I waited it out. This new feeling of calm is elevating, Im worried for nothing and this maybe the first time in my entire life that Im worried for nothing. No, doors need to be locked, no switches need to be turned off, no deadlines to meet and no love to greet. There is a profound happiness that...

Australian Film Festival of India at my College

So, as it happened that today an event was held in my college where Australian films (2 to be exact) were screened to the Bachelors of Journalism and Mass Communication's students and faculty.           The films that were screened were:             1) The Rover           The Rover is a film depicting the post apocalyptic times, a world of hunger not for food but money, a thirst not for water but money and sharp revelation of the surviving humanity. The Rover was a film by David Michod, along with actors Brad Pitt and Robert Pattinson that had a linear form of story telling. The story is set in a post apocalyptic world. there is a carjacking incident where the lead's(Brad Pitt's) car is stolen. The director successfully depicts the attachment to materialistic things in the world in the first act only. This is further established when "the brother of the carjackers in the movie i.e. Pattinson" is find...

A Lighter Heart

Been away from this vice for long now, I thought I was saving up my words, my thoughts but, they were rather getting lost. So, I'm not this "serial writer" who just has an urge to write out of something that has stuck my mind ANYMORE, I am more of a keep to myself these days and the job surely just keeps me busy. I was just celebrating my Saturday staying in bed (coz that's the extent of my celebrations #sadmuch), I thought of writing some shayri (poetry) but nothing came to my mind. I thought to myself perhaps this is because I have been keeping things in for so long, so, I decided to let it out but, the everlasting dilemma still struck, what to write when you have nothing to say, do you struggle with it often, what gives you this clarity in thought if it never happens to you. This entire thing was brought upon by this friend of mine, who sent me a piece of her shayri (poetry), and I did not have an answer for it, I thought hard and nothing, so I decided if not th...
