Drip

This is dedicated to all people who, like me, will soon be remembered as little squidgy puddles on the floor. People who dedicated their lives to fighting those unseen forces of evil and finally melted while battling in vain against the overwhelming fury of the sun. People who could not reach that AC switch in time. People whose very souls were sucked out by unforseen neighbourhood powercuts. People who have been doomed to reading ‘Politically Correct Bedtime Stories for 9 Year Olds’ in their so-called free time. People who have lost their minds to the heat. People who are as uninclined to returning to their entrance material as I am…

…yeah, I’m in the mood to rant. In the interest of both your patience and sanity, I shall spare you the torture. However, I see fit to subject you to to a little of the rubbish I’ve discovered over the past few weeks.

  • A ‘ting‘ is a person who never swears. Seriously.
  • The beach looks so much better when you’re looking at it from inside an air-conditioned car at 1 in the afternoon.
  • The probability of me following study timetables is directly proportional to that of me sprouting into a 10 foot tree.
  • If you were to run around town screeching ‘I love ding-dings!’, you would be proclaiming your love for ancient three legged Chinese vessels.
  • Finding cobwebs in your cupboard is definitely not a good sign.
  • Pomeranians are ANNOYING.
  • Writing an exam becomes not-so-nice when the ceiling of the room you are in decides to shower you periodically with paint, sand (?) and god knows what else.
  • The thought of what could happen to the dunderhead sitting in front of you with his mouth open, staring at the ceiling could give you some amount of sadistic joy.
  • The phrase ‘Nahinnnn, bachaoo!!’ is of great use when you have nothing better to say and want to sound intellectual. Well, maybe not. But emphasis works.
  • It is impossible to walk around a room tryig to study while trying to carry a guide that, in all, probably weighs more than you do. And you thought the NCERT textbooks were heavy.
  • Sour gummy whatchamacallits rock!

With that, I shall have to leave you for now. I need to get into college and my rank at VIT isn’t exactly reassuring me. Bbye.

Glug.

Did you know that bunnies eat their own poo?

Well, now you do.

Fix You

When you try your best but you don’t succeed
When you get what you want but not what you need
When you feel so tired but you can’t sleep
Stuck in reverse

And the tears come streaming down your face
When you lose something you can’t replace
When you love someone but it goes to waste
Could it be worse?

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

And high up above or down below
When you’re too in love to let it go
But if you never try you’ll never know
Just watch and learn

Lights will guide your home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

Tears stream, down your face
When you lose something you cannot replace
Tears stream down your face
And I..

Tears stream, down your face
I promise you I will learn from my mistakes
Tears stream down your face
And I..

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you.

- Coldplay (Fix You)

I’ve fallen in love with Chris Martin’s voice all over again.
