Happy Holi!

It is sometimes funny to see life complete one of its many circles. Like this other day I was being challenged by my 10 years old nephew who said will color me deep and dark before I can even reach his milky white cheeks. I also have been given an ultimatum - I am not supposed to reach our in-house play ground (where we celebrate holi) before 10. Now, he and many of you guys don't know I am a fucking veteran when the matter is of playing holi. Dirty holi! On first look I may look naive and gullible; but looks can be very deceptive mind you! That little guy is going to have a bad time tomorrow! ;)

I love colors which will be evident the moment you meet me. Needless to mention I love celebrating holi. I have seen all shades of holi - on one side hundreds of people playing holi in an open ground ready to use color, polish, paint, tea, coffee, cow dung and anything plausibly imaginable by a human brain and on other side me alone with a college novel, hogging biriyani and watching television on a holi day. You know what I learned? I learned that life may dessert you at times but that doesn't disqualify you for having celebrations. I learned that one needs the company of friends but one may be able survive even when they are not around. And most importantly, one must never, even in worst of situations, lose hopes for celebrations or bend ways of it.

आया था एक तन्हाई का लम्हा हमें गुमनाम करने;
आज हमारे अंदाज़ की मिसालें देता फिरता है|

I may sound old and rusty and cliched but it is true - Holi is not celebrated the way it used to earlier. No filth, no love, no naughtiness; just hypocrisies. People, instead of playing holi, take the responsibility of being and activist on the internet and post photos and messages that say ' do not waste water'. Where did your heart went when you took a bath with 10 buckets of hot water just because you were feeling cold? These activists are no one but some holi hating piece of junk who now have a better reason to avoid holi. It is a hearty request -  if you do not want to play holi, don't. Please do not decrease the morale of the people who actually wish to celebrate holi!

All being said, I wish you and your family a happy and joyous holi. May Lord Vishnu garner your lives with lots and lots of colors. I will meet you guys soon in another one of my blog posts. Holi Haiiii! :)

Until next time,
Adios!

Back To The Lab Again!

Phew! If staying away from webville was an offensive crime, I must be hanged! I have been away since 2 months from College Diaries and believe me I missed this space so much. Work. I am not making lame and cliched excuses, one thing followed the other and it led me to a heavy dose of work together. And now that I have all that almost sorted out (kinda), it becomes mandatory for me to return back to the place where I truly belong.

Life is one hell of a joy ride; and in the last two months I have seen so much ups and downs that I am virtually puking rainbows. Take my word if you will - engage. Engage in anything lest it becomes so late that the only thing you can engage in is 'regret'. I am not a very quick decision maker and every time there is a conflict in situations, I ask from my peers what to do and what not to. Most of the time, their advices go against mine and I follow them mindlessly only to regret it in the end. 'Listen everyone's, do your heart's' they say. So, at the start of this semester, when I took a shitload of work for myself everyone, including my father, advised me to just attend college and do stuff they ask me to do. My gut feeling said that I must go beyond my comfort level and off I went only to find deeper meanings and greater joys of life. It wasn't easy though mind you; there were times I was shitting bricks; literally (uaah!). But 'all's well that ends well' right? I have seen a boy or two throw away their life like that. Please save your life, don't waste it. You become a human after 80,000 turns of life cycles.

Life is a bliss now; cash flow is good and company is taking leaps and I have a new found love for programming. Remember how I always said that I can even learn Chinese but not Java; well guess that is not how it was meant to be. Instead, I find that I am a natural at coding if not gifted. Hoping to create some awesome and kickass stuff in the near future. With the suggestive powers of coding I hear about and my evil creativity, I think the world will not be safe no more. I even suggested Kamasutra app on android as the college project; my team mates refused. They said it was a bit vulgar! Guess it was a little bit out of place.
Denying Shakespeare, I have a second found love too - love for classical rock. Pink Floyd all the way baby! Weed has found newer meanings man.

Lot more to write but guess I moved beyond domain maxima. Geek, ha ha! Gues my writing has improved a bit, whatcha say fellas? Comment in! Lot of dope to come this month stay tuned! My Holi article from last year still remains pending LOL! BTW, I maid a different blog just for my poetry. Here's the link, tell me how it is. Only one poem has been posted though. Have I done the right thing? Fill in!

See you guys later, keep engaging! :)
Adios!
