Over Hyped

I just woke up from sleep and all I want to do is run back to Blore. Weekends at Doon get very monotonous and boring,lack of civilization and socialization bugs me a hell lot. Now I am certain as to why I dont like Kerala/Gulf. Its the same factor, lack of enough socialization. Atleast when I keep comparing it to Bangalore I know the difference. I cant believe its been 2 months since I got here and very soon it will be the end of the semester. I am hoping the next 1 year goes by quickly,manage a project in a city maybe. Arrgh.

The CWG has finally kicked off and unfortunately wont be able to see the crowd and the arrangements due to the mid sem exams starting next week. Not that I am really interested in sports but for the hype! Talking about hype two things come to my mind, one being the Ayodhya matter which settled down with no big a deal. This kind of decision and verdict they could have given years back than pushing it to the very end where people would have actually gone mad and maybe we would have had a nation wide bandh for 2-3 days. I think UPES still will be on a roll with classes as we stay way far from the city for anything to affect us.

Another hyped up matter would be a guy and a girl in a relationship. I thought we moved long back from the age old cultures/tradition that a guy/girl cant like/love any other girl/guy till they are forced into an arranged marriage. Not necessary that such marriages should last even nor am I saying that love marriages do but atleast they shouldnt be treated that its the worst thing you can do. Not agree for an arranged marriage. I dont think when a guy meets a girl or gets talking its necessarily going to lead into a relationship so how does he decide to stay away. You might be hearing parents telling you stay away from girls! I mean what kind of crap is that!? Now its the age where people say even if you like a girl its ok but please stay away from guys. How will this sound 'Mom and Dad I like a guy' and 'Mom Dad I like a girl'. Better sounding yeah! Atleast you are not going against the indian values in the society/neighbourhood. They'll probably treat you an outcast of you say that you are gay. Just coz your son/daughter being a hindu falls in love with a Muslim how does it make a difference!? Why is it such a big deal afterall. Arent they f*ckin humans. Why do educated people behave to keep their relatives and society happy. When such things happen in movies, everyone will nod and say 'Yes Yes this is also right' but being put in that situation they dont want to go through such decisions.Marriage/Love is not coming together of the whole family tree including relatives and their relatives.If it works that way good or else atleast keep your kids happy if thats what they want and not go against it. I have heard of people disowning their kids just coz they didnt agree for an arranged marriage or because they fell in love with a guy/girl of their choice. Pathetic!


Next post after Midsem!
