SAVED .. By the Bell !


<!----Saturday.
  ----Hot summer day.
<!----Blazing sun.
<!----1:10 pm.
<!----Mathematics test going on.
<!----Chemistry class waiting for me !

Five things. … . Five perfect things ….. Five perfect things sufficient to turn a person like me into  a zombie .
For the reader’s knowledge,  I have no grudges against maths or chemistry.

It had been a long day.
Been standing continuously as so called Discipline Committee Member of the school for 120 minutes for the school environment day celebration (correction : wanted to run away but HAD to watch the yeah-i-already-know   save earth stuff)
One of my friends  Vidisha Barwal had once said.. we cut trees,, then make paper out of it … and on the same paper. , we write SAVE TREES… haha, very true, Bhedu dear!

So, coming back to the theme, had a crazy time celebrating  Environment day,  and after that..  read four more pages from the longest chapter in my English book-Vistas.
(Dear long chapter, you’re finally gonna be DEAD tomorrow *ahhh*)
This boring day didn’t seem to end.
Please end… or change, at least !!
And it DID change--- for the worse !

Physics

2 continuous physics classes. WOW. . the only good thing that happened in those 80 minutes  was that  the final lines of  AM- I -DEAD? – the poem I had been writing .. suddenly clicked in my head.
Somehow , the physics class finally ended. . . making way for the Maths test I mentioned above.
Managed to do 8 out of 10 questions in 25 minutes.
And THEN……. (!!!)
The last chemistry class which didn’t seem to end. Me and my bench mate were dying to hear the bell …
“did it ring?”
“just your  imagination, dear !!”
“but I swear I heard something.. YES  … I did ”
“relax swatika”
The class continued … and continued…..  and continued !!!
“whoa.. its 2:10. Why are we still sitting here ? what’s wrong with the bell??”

2:11… omg!

You’ve got to be kidding me, 2:12 !!! im sure the bell rang and we didn’t hear!

2:13 . . ahhhhh  NOW I’m getting mad!

2:14 . . . . oh come ON

And then  f-i-n-a-l-l-y

We heard the most awaited sound 5 minutes late… at 2:15
..
It made me realize 5 minutes = nothing… but 5 minutes extra when school ought to be over = something indeed !!
***disfrutar de la vida***!!! :)

It all started with a phone call

first of all, let me make it very clear that i'm writing this only because Bhedu ( very sweet friend of mine ) has updated her blog about today's boisterous day and i dont want to be left behind :p


so it was the day i was all happy and relaxing after my final exams ... 


and then... my cellphone rang !! should i take it? or not? i was busy a little . . finally i looked at it ..
it was Bhedu.. i like her a lot because she had given me this wonderful name DIDO 2 years ago... she asked me to go to Shivratri fair with her.. Since i wasn't doing anything, i expressed my willingness.
we met near the venue.. 
Believe me if not lakhs, there were atleast a thousand other people sharing the same road as us. so i had GREAT trouble finding her
COINCIDENCE # 1 - we both were wearing purple
immediately after entering, we went for a ride.. BREAK DANCE. YUCK nothing like break ... nothing like dance.. we were literally walking just here and there and looked at IIT board and i S-I-G-H-E-D. both of us badly wanted to get in there !!
we entered the DOME and for a moment .. it felt like we've landed on another planet. no kidding. me and Bhedu got some friggin cute clips and then kept walking endlessly here and there browsing stuff we didn't really like and had no intention of buying
COINCIDENCE # 2 - we both met our families in the fair 
COINCIDENCE # 3 - me and Bhedu's mothers were both wearing red !! 


then came the F_U_N part....
we met a girl ( im sorry i forgot her name ! she was Bhedu's friend ) who was scared to death from the giant wheel .. so damn scared that she ACTUALLY started screaming. I mean why the hell can people be so scared. i'm not saying i'm very brave. but i learnt a lot from that experience. i mean to conquer the fear and stuff like that !! we provided her a list of all the rides .. needless to say, she had a BIG NO to each one of our wonderful options. nevertheless she was hard to convince for the columbus. 
COINCIDENCE # 4 - we found another coward for that scared little thingie (sorry if i am rude)
Then we met 6 of my friends and we headed proudly towards C_O_L_U_M_B_U_S .. a long waiting time BUT IT WAS WORTH IT !! 
i was at first scared, unable to decide whether i should Sit on the ride or STAND.. but me and shivangini finally decided to stand like Vidisha.
 WOOHOO
 i screamed my heart out ( i know such an expression doesn't exist, but how else could i express the AMAZING feeling i had there)
 Then we bought something- ME VIDISHA AND BHAVESH .. *(i tried that when i got back home and i liked it.)* thanks vidisha for choosing that for me ** LOVE YOU**
In the end... we smartly headed back home with our stroll through the streets . . . talking about becoming science club captain, how quiet and peaceful it was at night  or whatever.. it was around 7:00 and getting dark and Bhedu's father was to pick us up. . . so we kept walking .. and walking.. and walking  and me , thinking in my mind of WOW WHAT A BLOG-WORTH day !!
 then i don't know what happened to my little brother, he said that he THOUGHT he saw Bhedu's car go to the other side. At first, Bhedu didn't believe. but when bhanu said that he also saw a CHOTA BACHA SITTING IN THE CAR, Vidisha went nuts. we kept standing there     
like dumbos .. in the dark haha !! what fun !!
finally the appearance of Vidisha's car OUT-OF-THE-BLUE confirmed that bhanu's observation had rusted.
if i had my way, i could describe this day in a million words. but neither i have that much time, nor i know so many words. (you know it makes sense, right?) (:

I Don't Want to be Miss Wayward Anymore!!


Today I didn’t do much work. That gave me enough time to think and discover myself a little bit. People my age are doing wonders right now. They plan far ahead and seem organized humans. Look at me, I’m sixteen and don’t even know what I want to do in this life, all I know is home then school then back to home, with some amount of homework and a little fun in between.
Today was my mathematics final exam. Honestly speaking, I hadn’t prepared myself for it. As a matter of fact, I had started studying yesterday and finished all the 16 chapters like a machine. To my surprise, the paper was EXTREMELY easy …. Much more than I had expected. I could have got 100 but I won’t, and that’s because I don’t deserve it. But no, I didn’t cry over it. I have learnt from this bizarre and promised myself not to fall into this situation ever again.
To be true, I’m VERRY lazy and that stops me from doing all good that I want to. I’m like those who have a LONG to-do list that is of no utility except decorating my desk and then decorating the dustbin afterwards.
When I was little I wanted to be a million things (well most of all, I wanted to be a horse!!)
When I grew up to a nine year old, I wanted to become
The president of INDIA
An astronaut
A TV actress
A journalist
A photographer
A scientist
(+ 50 more things)
When I further became 15, I wanted to become
A writer
A genetic engineer
A supermodel
A professional detective
An astronaut
A painter
All this I WANTED to become. Not that I had ACTUALLY done anything in that direction.  Everybody tells me that I must have an aim – a specific aim and work for it, live for it, die for it and never lose sight for it. I completely agree. But I just can’t make my mind. Further, sometimes I think-who and what is I in this mighty world and then I go blank-COMPLETELY BLANK because I don’t know what I where to start and what to think.
So today, I’ve decided to do nothing but peep inside me, and come out with an answer so that when I go to bed tonight, I have a big smile from ear to ear and wake up with a plan tomorrow. =))
