Come let me burst your bubble.



No one wishes to be branded ordinary. Everyone plods through life with some sort of purpose, some distant dream that they wish to reach out and touch, dreams that sometimes take a backseat to other priorities. Everyone believes their existence to be a significant link of the chain of life.
If you didnt exist at all, what difference would it make to the world really? One mouth less to feed if anything. If I didn't exist, that old lady might have been killed by that speeding car. What if that was the defining moment of my existence? What if my purpose in life was to be there at that moment and push that old lady out of harm's way? I'm done. Now what? While away my time till death comes to claim me? Nothing stings more than knowing your existence is meaningless. It isnt easy watching all your dreams come crashing down right before your eyes.
Life isn't easy. It was never meant to be. C'est La Vie. Its all a matter of perspective. You can choose to start every day with a smile, and be a ray of hope splicing through every cloud of gloomy doubt that the path of life is pockmarked with. Or you can choose to see the future for what it is; To come to terms with the gritty truth and continue on your path, shoulders drooping with the very weight of the truth, the verity of a future that holds absolutely nothing. The very realization of it all numbs you into leading a zombie like existence.
Hope is just so much easier.

Blogger made me do it. I swear!

Here I am with an urge to blog yet again. So what shall it be? Something deep and meaningful? Patooie!.. I'm here to indulge in some self obsession.

'List 25 random things, facts, habits, or goals about you.'
Yes there was more about tagging all the people I knew or summat. But never mind that, the Gods of facebook have handed me an opportunity to talk about myself. How? Oh how can I refuse?
Here goes:

1) I'm fascinated by everything nature has to offer.
2) I prefer movie scripts over the real thing (for in depth zzz please refer to an older post)
3) I've come to accept I'll never sit through The Godfather without nodding off. (the script was mind blowing though)
4) The amount I'd have spent on therapy by the time I hit 30, could buy me a small Asian country.
5) I do not have a social life and I don't mind it as much as I pretend to.
6) When I sprout wings, I vow to give all of them non-toilet trained birds a taste of their own medicine.
7) I'm a very boring person. Pathetic as that is.
8) My social skills are retarded. I cannot, for the love of God, understand how I have any friends.
9) I'll never understand why people find fur appealing. Look out for a post on that soon.
10) I've lusted after every profession there is.
11) I lost my virginity at age.. *cough* Look! Pretty butterfly!
12) I gained it back when I was.. *cough* Look there it is again!
Since the last two points nullify one another.. More turns for me! yay!

11) I was a poser goth in high school. The horror.
12) I freak out when anything comes close to my eyes.
13) I used to have my very own cockroach circus.
14) I'm smarter than I look, and not as smart as I sound.
15) Sloth is the name of the tiny alien that lives between my ears and controls me.
16) My tombstone is going to read ''The attention whore that wasn't". Subtlety is the name of the game, my friend.
17) I'm a hippie. I should never have stepped into that darned time machine.
18) I take my friends for granted though they mean the world to me.
19) There are only 3 people in the world I can claim to truly love without doubting myself.
20) Pregnancy is beautiful only when its someone else's.
21) I've absolutely no eye for design.
22) I freak myself out with my own messages on my foggy bathroom mirror the morning after.
23) My cooking is lethal to anyone else except me.
24) I relate to QE's Faye so much it freaks me out. I cover my face with my hands and peek through my fingers to see if she's gone off my screen yet.
25) For a few months after watching The Truman show, I used to put up little acts everywhere I went. I also used to strain my ears to hear the laughter track every time I cracked a funny.
26) I should have never ever joined manipal.
27) Sliced cheese rules!
28) Guys PMS more than chicks do. Go figure.
29) I've never been any good at math. Never will be either.

29 points, I know. Read the last point again. You're lucky I shut up when I did.
Now you know me a little better.

Till we meet again.

Peace.


PS: You gotta love facebook for coming up with the cutest of things.

Half Full is right.

Here's a video that's been making its rounds on the web. Cadbury Eyebrows is the latest in a long list of programming that comes under the very popular genre that I'd like to christen the 'WTF' genre.



Go ahead...
say it..
