London baby!

Harrods, London

July 2009

This summer I was in London for a short course, my friends and I decided to just hang around after school, this was one of the pictures I took that evening.

London is a city full of life, and a whole lot of experiences.

It was indeed one of the best trips of my life! (:

I want to be King!

Just some odd twenty days left for college to get over, and yet so much left to do.

I wonder if i have made much sense of what i have learnt in these four years.

From the institute, the friends, the independence, the city, the life -here, in Delhi!

I am anxious and a little scared too, to step out.

Though i know what i want to be, when i leave- I want to be KING!

Yes,

and i am certain, i will :)

**Fingers crossed**

Its time.

These days, i'm a person i am not.

I don't know how to get out of this phase because i don't know how i got into it in the first place.

I never worried about assignments and submissions. I never doubted my strengths.

Its been four years in this institute (NIFT, New Delhi) and i have learnt a-lot.

I have become a person completely different from what i was four years back and whether this was for the good or the bad is what i am not able to decide.

Or do i have to?

Why am i worried so much?

What am i anxious about?

In a few months i will be a graduate (hopefully!) and soon will be ready to step out into the 'real world'.

I guess this is not it, its just the beginning.

I will learn more and change more- good or bad doesn't matter as long as i am happy about myself, right?!

It is really about loving what you do, every minute of it.

Because there will always be a reason to be happy later. I guess i was happiest when i was the person am.

And its time to be happy again.

Its time to be me (:

Happy Independence day? Or is it?

In just a few more days India will celebrate its 63rd independence day.

On 15th of august 2009.

I often wonder, what this day means to most of us. On one hand some of us pretend to be so called "patriots" and on the other hand, many of us don't even know what this should stand for.

Well, many exclaim, "Do your bit for the country!", "Repay mother India!"

I guess these are remarks are too philosophical for my understanding.

As a citizen of India i don't think i need to worry so much about how to contribute to India.

Many a times, i feel energized and motivated towards myself, my life, my country.

This independence day maybe i will channel all of that in one direction and probably do something that makes me feel good about being an Indian national.

I have been blessed to be able to receive the best of the education.

So, i guess i would start by educating all those who cant pay for it.

All those who need to know about their rights, and all those who can lead a much better life post literacy.

And then i guess it would be a

Happy Independence Day!

Um, the real world.

I want to fight crime. I want to live the life of a boy. I want to be on the hot seat of a live game show. I want to shop till i drop (no matter how cliche it sounds!). I want to laugh till i cry. I want to skydive. I want to travel the globe. I want to be able to sing! I want to earn lots of money. I want to make a difference. In the real world.
