Comfortably Numb

I have been thinking about how much life has changed during my years in the city.Right from being a Gulf return teenager to now being 22 and reaching the very end of engineering.Lot of things have changed over time.There used to be a point when I used to play cricket all day long,even wait for that 10 minute break in school skip lunch just so that I could run to the ground to play.I used to write poems,I kept that book alive till my second year engineering after which I burnt it.Maybe coz it had too many emotions involved,I had decided to let go off it finally.I had this habit of writing in my personal diary right from 8th grade.nothing was too personal during that phase.It got very personal when I was in 11th/12th,I always enjoyed writing.I have always been a very non responsive person,I keep a few of my thoughts to myself.It helps at times and sometimes I get very frustrated but yeah I would prefer keeping them within.I am not an open book,I used to be some point of time.I used to tell everyone everything about me.Maybe I have learnt to shut up,when I realise that there is no necessity involved I might as well push that thought down than bring it up.My diary used to be my trash can,I used to dump every single emotion and feeling I had.I used to go back to reading those pages a few months down the lane and still be able to relive that moment.


I totally stopped writing my diary,sometimes I feel its coz I dont have time.Maybe I stopped making time for it or maybe I dont want to write personal stuff anymore.Now I hide my thoughts from the diary even.Am just kidding,I dont feel that need/connection anymore when I pen down my thoughts.I'v had an individual even read my entire diary.Its the kinda feeling that you dont enjoy after sometime.I realised that later and then I totally disliked the fact that someone even talks/touches my diary.One fine day I burnt all my diaries and every other hand written stuff I kept safe in my drawer.


I didnt think of writing a post but somewhere along I started to type.


Coming to my blog history,I had my first blog in 11th.My mum always thought that I waste a lot of time on my blog,I actually used to.I had everything changed in the template and made a lot of changes in the html coding.I had things right from a chat box,weekly video,flickr stream,scrolling words on the page in a random fashion.I still stick to the promise I made when I started my first,I will continue blogging.


There is always a small part of me I blog once in a while,these are the things I dont discuss/want to discuss.


...And like always, 'There is a little part of me I keep to myself,I prefer it that way'.



Meanwhile let me see what I have been upto..

1.Still following SRK's tweets on Twitter,thats the only thing I do on twitter.
2.Project work going on but still a lot of confusion.
3.I am yet to start working on the seminar topic,seminar due on April 8th.



Utilization of time : While I had to wait for my phone to charge,I thought I might as well blog.
