Are you getting old???

I miss all the crazy, dumb things i did whn i was a kid. We had this room freshener in our bathroom. One day I read the label and found that the major ingredient was alcohol. As a pyromaniac in the making, I decided to light a match in front of the nozzle while spraying for a little entertainment. Being cautious I pointed it out the window. It was like pointing a flame thrower out the window actually. Now that went on for an hour or so. Lots of fun for sure, but not so much so when my parents found the huge burn mark on the wall of the building and the residents complaining about it.


So coming back, many people pretend to be somewhere in life they are but actually somewhere else. You might be fifty and act twenty, you might be twenty and act fifty.. You are nineteen and you still wonder if eggs would explode if you left them boiling in the pan, once the water was gone. You are NINETEEN and  you are a control freak!!?!!??!! Seriously wtf is tht???


Some of us don't know where we stand.. but as usual, KJ is here to the rescue with this very helpful quiz. Answer the questions honestly and find out exactly how old you really are... I know, u are probably thanking me  already... 

Okay, lets see...


You're at a bar and your friend buys a round of tequila shots. You...


(1) Down your shot, then your friend's shot, then order another round.
(2) Down your shot, thank your friend, and retire home for the evening.
(3) Turn down the shot - you have assignments tomorrow.
(4) This entire scenario is unrealistic - bars? What is this, college?



Your friends are camping out for concert tickets. You...


(1) Get a tent and food -- you're in.
(2) Give them money and ask them to buy you a ticket
(3) Pass --  can you believe the crap those kids are listening to these days??
(4) The music's too loud, parking is a pain, and everyone's on drugs and intoxicated. No, thanks.



You're house sitting in your friend's ridiculous flat. You...


(1) Throw a booze party that will make every damn person throw up.
(2) Invite a small group of friends over and have sane fun.
(3) You have a date with his comfortable couch, a glass of wine, and the latest and watch something on TV.
(4) You leave early because you're old and depressed and it's strikingly clear you'll never be able to afford a house of similar size.



You get a girls' number. You...


(1) Call her that night for a prank call.
(2) Wait the allotted 3 days and ask her out for coffee.
(3) Wait the allotted 3 days to call and plan a dinner.
(4) Don't call because phones are too confusing.



The stock market is crashing. You...


(1) Don't care because you aren't invested in the stock market.
(2) Care a little because some of your buddies are on it.
(3) Start looking for a cliff to jump off of.
(4) Find it exciting to actually have something to talk to people about.



It's the first beautiful day outside in a while. You...


(1) Fill a thermos with rum and step outside.
(2) Go on a road trip!!
(3) Go for a stroll in the garden.
(4) Bird-watch with the new binoculars you bought.



You just found out that you won the lottery. You...


(1) Spend half the money on booze and the other half on the party.
(2) Buy a really cool car that you've always wanted.
(3) Diversify thru mutual funds and CD's.
(4) Do not want to cash in the ticket for fear that its too risky to carry around a lot of money.



You're at a sporting event and a jerk is causing a ruckus. Do you:


(1) Hit him with a beer bottle and when he looks over, point to the guy next to you.
(2) Berate him about why he's being a jerk and if he wants to fight you say, "Save your ass buddy!!" and hit him until he collapses.
(3) Be a sissy and alert it to a watchman nearby.
(4) N/A. Don't attend sporting events because of chance of inclimate weather and escalating price of concessions and seriously, have you seen what they're charging for a cup of pint of beer nowadays? It's criminal.



You're flipping thru the channels and you see " Bay watch " just started. You...


(1) Watch it - that show is awesome and appeals to all ages
(2) Watch it - that show is awesome and appeals to all ages
(3) Watch it - that show is awesome and appeals to all ages
(4) Watch it (at an increased volume) - that show is awesome and appeals to all ages

Your dream wedding would be:
(1) I am not getting married, ever!!
(2) on the beach..with all my close friends and family
(3) traditional! (whatever your culture/religion is)
(4) already married..




Assign yourself the corresponding points for each answer and tally them.


For instance, if you answered choice (1) to a question, give yourself one point, and so on and so forth.


10-15 - You're young at heart, or you're an immature jerk. Either way, do as you please.
16-25 - You're still hanging on to that last vestige of youth. Many people your age shake their head at your antics.
26-32 - You're starting to get that old person smell. Give it up
33-40 - You are probably dead already.

P.S : I m glad i came up with this.. i understand the fact that i m your only savior!! God bless you all.. I am okay if he gives u my blessings too.. I don't need any.. 

*almost on the verge of crying*
sob sob..

Thank You...

Nick Drake. You save me over and over again.

You're my angel. Probably the only thing that keeps me sane.

I love you. And I thank God everyday, just because you lived. You lived. And you keep us alive.

You will never be forgotten.

And to sum up...

I haven't been here in a while...sorry 'bout that. Stuff's been happening around me, I guess. But then stuff happens around everyone...

Anyhoo, I went through a spot of depression.

Now I'm okay.

And sick.

Huh.

I have a lot to talk about...so lets start, shall we?

#1: THANK YOU MY WONDERFULLY DELUDED PALS!
Have recently rediscovered the joys of having some of the best pals in the world. And so I wanna dedicate this part of the post to you guys - my real, lovable friends. I don't care who has how many facebook friends, but of this I am sure: I have the greatest pals in the world. The very best. And I don't say this enough, but I love you guys - so so so so soooooo much :)

#2: Mr. Has-A-Nice-Voice:
Mr. Has-A-Nice-Voice came to our class one day. He looked well, average. Nothing about him was out of the ordinary. And then he started speaking. Oh my oh my oh my! What a lovely voice!

#3: From the Darkest Corner of my Criminal Mind:
I'm watching waaay too much of Criminal Minds. Cant get serial Killers out of my mind! What am I doing here? I should have been a Criminologist. I knew I belonged in the good side of the world of crime back when I was fourteen. Care to explain WTF am I doing studying engg?

#4: I Really Need To Start Studying:
Its a subject I didn't pay attention to in 12th. And now I'm sick, I have a hell lot of portion to complete, I don't have the right text book and I have the worst teacher in the world. I am so S-C-R-E-W-E-D.

#5: Stay tuned for more Random Ramblings!
COMING SOON: My views on just about everything I'm crazy about!

#6: And Finally:
I could leave a photo of something really cute, like a bunch of (nuke) babies or hopping wabbits, but somehow, I find this cuter than anything else:

Melancholy

 HENCE, all you vain delights,
  As short as are the nights
  Wherein you spend your folly:
  There's nought in this life sweet
  If man were wise to see't,         5
  But only melancholy,
  O sweetest Melancholy!
Welcome, folded arms, and fixèd eyes,
A sigh that piercing mortifies,
A look that's fastened to the ground,  10
A tongue chain'd up without a sound!
Fountain-heads and pathless groves,
Places which pale passion loves!
    Moonlight walks, when all the fowls
    Are warmly housed save bats and owls!  15
    A midnight bell, a parting groan!
    These are the sounds we feed upon;
Then stretch our bones in a still gloomy valley;
Nothing's so dainty sweet as lovely melancholy.

-J. Fletcher (1579-1625)

Looking Back

Another semester is coming to an end.

It feels like a long time ago, when we were still in school, lived in our own secure worlds, unaware of what lay ahead of us. College was a distant thing of the future..

And now more than a year later, I look back at the journey that has brought me here. Leaving school, leaving Mumbai, writing a million tests, joining college, meeting an entirely new crowd and having things fall into place.

The way we met, the way our lives had intersected for that one moment and how we’ve come far along the road..thinking about it makes me wonder at the working of the universe.

Now that I’ve mentioned it..all the weird meetings are flooding my consciousness..uh oh. I think I need some chocolate now.
