Yea yea I know I haven't blogged in a while; well, I've been kinda busy (and low). First there were the sessionals, then we went out to Ooty (amazing trip) and then, two weeks of being so low I didn't even know two weeks went by!!
Add to that four labs this week and three weeks of craving for a BIG cold coffee!!
So we finally decided enough was enough! And we went all the way to the city just to kill our cravings..
And it was awesome!! Just like my high school days :) >>
Three gals, hanging out at the mall, doing nothing except a BIG nice coffee from CCD :) Ok, the CCD is nothing like its supposed to be, even the coffee is not even half as good, but its as good as it gets here I guess. And it sent my mood sky rocketing so thank heavens CCD finally made it to Calicut, though just like me, it seems to have forgotten what its supposed to really be like after getting here :devil

This is what I absolutely love about Calcutta...
I don't really belong to the city, but I've been there all my life; it's the only place on earth I call 'home'. And the city never made me feel I don't belong there; in fact I'm yet to know anyone who felt out of place there..it's like 'everyone's invited'!
And all these things are stuff I realised after I moved out for college, I love every damn thing about that place; the streets, the British architecture, Park Street, the wind on the bridge when driving home from the station, Rosogulla (I realised to my utter horror after getting to college that you can't just go out and have Rosogulla everytime you feel like; and the lesson is to never take a Rosogulla for granted again!!), the rolls and momos on the streetsides, and the Bengali language, which I still barely understand but somehow, this far from home, it sounds like home ;)
It just feels so amazing to get back there..no matter how low I've been..the moment I'm back home, everything suddenly feels so good, like perfect!
Its the best city in the world to go home to..

The British left the city some priceless presents..

A typical sight in the older parts of the city..this is somewhere near Park Street..the hearbeat of the city..

How come nobody ever died coz of eating in the mess?!!

I really really really wonder...

Week 2: through
Congratulations folks..we did it!!

[I wrote this when I was fourteen and I don't remember a few lines, but it's been ages since I wrote something like this so..]

Money can buy anything they say
Of course it can, who says it cant
It can buy you a bunch of superficial friends
And a club membership to keep up with the trends
It can buy you that gorgeous sequinned gown
And the most expensive villa in town

But there are some things money can't buy
Success, happiness and your perfect guy
It can buy you a house, but not a home
And people you can call your own
It can buy you a limo and a glittering tiara
But, remember princess Diana??

In short, money can buy most things in life
But what it can't, is what we call life!

Its weekend already, pretty quick and must say, the week was a dream.
Just one class on thursday and now I strongly feel one day must be off every month just so we can pay our bills.
Anyway so weekend right; am so outta things to do; I hear half the things in Focus have closed down and with even LF gone, this place appears so freaking dead!!
Oh and I haven't had a first hour yet so am yet to catch a glimpse of the freshers. Like I care, I'm supposedly anti-ragging (lol)
Plus only two days of classes ain't sufficient to generate any gossip; dude there's really nothing to do then I guess.. apart from gaping at the Tathva poster (wassat!!)if you please!!

Haven't I told you before about how much I hate the start of the sem??
Well, I'm gonna say that again!
I HATE THE START OF THE SEM and more than that I HATE THE START OF AN ODD SEM
for in addition to no work, there's no LAN and there's the rain which theoretically makes me very very happy but it doesn't. It reminds me of how my first year started off and it isn't nice at all.
And the rain makes you feel cold sometimes and then you wanna feel warm and it really really SUCKS big time :(
