NH7 Weekender Diaries: Day 3 (Finale)

Image
Morning of Day 3 was the craziest and sickest thing that happened to me. I understand that after constantly working day-in-and-out and being sleep-deprived one is bound to get frustrated, but how dumb is it lashing out at an another individual? It is horrible, you know, being constantly humiliate; for trying to help others, for trying to co-operate, and heck even for demanding rights for self! Well, that's a precise summary of the scene that forenoon. And after spending three lovely days there, occurrence of something like this did ensure a bitter aftertaste. There isn't much to talk about the performances of Day 3 because I couldn't watch bands other than Sky Rabbit, Pentagram and Karsh Kale + NH7 All Stars, although I did end up listening to a bit of Party Scribe in between as the stage on which they performed was diagonally opposite the Bacardi Stage. Pentagram's act was top-notch and a rare one too, as they rarely perform early evening! The crowd that had gathere...

Let it rain...

Eventually it rained, it felt like I spent forever in its anticipation. You know, how much I abhor summers and now after the rainy season has finally knocked on Mumbai's door, I'm in a state of pure bliss. The gloomy sky, the exquisite fragrance of wet earth and drops of water from above, never fails to lift my levels of joy. And of late, my poetic side too has surfaced! Yeah, I do enjoy reading poetry but doing it is a different ball-game altogether. I ended up writing one more: Let it rain, so that the drops from heaven leaves my soul drenched. Let it rain, so that the undying thirst gets quenched. Let it rain, so that the parched land revives. Let it rain, so that the nature thrives. I dedicate this one to this season's first rain and the environment day. Um, I know I'm asking for it again but can you please point out the shortcomings? Thank You.

I am right!

Few day ago (umm...should I say last week?) I wrote a post on the start of this particular phase of life called "college life", I meticulously described about the each and every problems I was suffering initially. Well, the things with me has settled down and I am loving this new life, each and every second ! Initially, i.e. during the first week I lost faith in my decision of choosing St. Andrew's College over several other colleges I could have easily got accepted into. I felt lost and had started to hate myself for making the wrong decision, but....now I know that I didn't make a wrong choice, I was right in my decision! Travelling is still a bit hectic during peak hours. I had a thing that I wasn't able to make that many friends during the first week as I am capable of making (hey! I am an extrovert but only in certain surrounding!) mainly because neither I wasn't mentally able to adapt myself to this new way of living nor other people around me w...

Simple Joy

Hmm....so now-a-days nothing special's up, planning to go for a college-visit tomorrow. So this was my personal update, now time for blog's update.. Well, I think now-a-days we people have turned pretty materialistic. Yeah!...see me for instance, I haven't shopped or traveled for a while (only few days!) and I am already feeling under the weather. I wasn't able to access the internet this weekend since, there was some connection error on Friday and that made me go nuts and restless, literally! But, not able be to on the desktop gave me some precious time to ponder over this serious issue of we teenagers going materialist and finding comfort in man-made materials, like my friends who are seriously engaged with their mobile-phone forever! Few decades ago, very few people had cars and televisions. Mobile phone's were simply non-existent and most importantly, there was no facebook or any social networking site. Still, people were happy and found a list-long fun thin...
