Adventures or Accidents??

Hey
how are you all?
 So, it struck to me pretty recently that i dont write often enough and i kinda know the reason. But, lemme focus on the days events. It has been a bumpy ride into the second year of the college and I guess I am enjoying college more. I go to my classes and I get to boss around too (what more can you ask for ??).
     Today, I chose to accompany two of my friends for the promotional video of our event to be made, as it turns out it was a complete bummer. We started our journey back to college and came face to face with a sucky fact that we could not hitch any ride when our savior came riding on a shimmering white pegasus and offered us help. It was a fellow batchmate who had showed up with a white activa and offered us a lift. We complied to the offer and chose to ride with him.
    Here was the adventure, it was 4 of us on one activa which was driven carelessly enough to give a sound person a heart attack, god only knows what held us in the balance of life but the odds for a mishap seemed to be bursting through the roof. It was when we neared our destination when, one of my fellow beholed yelled to me in the whistling winds " this adventure may turn into an accident soon if he remains on this course".
    This little act made me realize that not anything can be counted as an adventure. It is risk factor of it and the fear to lose is what makes an adventure

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...
