Once in a while this blog bears the brunt of raw emotion...not the kind camouflaged in nice-sounding words and/or fictionalised...but raw anger, frustration, love, pain...
Come to think of it, I don't even care. Sometimes I snap, and then I don't have the patience to disguise my self and my feelings. I don't know what's wrong with me, but if I stop lying for once, something is. My brain has been corrupted with an UnknownVirus from Swedeland. One thing's for sure...exchange programme is not meant for sensitive girls. I don't know what's become of me. I'm so unrecognisable to myself. I just don't have any spirit left. I'm tired of pushing myself on to do this and that and that and that...I'm tired of forcing myself to smile. There's just no driving force left. Smile for whom? Live for what? Lie more to yourself, but why? I've had enough thank you! Sure this is a wonderful place...it's beautiful, the atmosphere is very relaxed, there's plenty to experience blah blah. But..hello...it's been four months and so enough is enough. Beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder and my eyes are cataracted!
OK OK too much. I'm slightly frustrated hence the exaggerated reaction...It's been good this last four months. I've made sooooo many kinds of people from all over the world; I've learnt how to cook and how to survive independently; I've learnt how to be self-sufficient for everything including love and hate, including crying for and wiping tears; I've had time to slow down in my express-pace over-dramatic life and think, reflect, grow; I've come to know which are the people that really matter to me, who are worth caring for, and who all care for me or come to me just when they need help. It's done so many good things to me by giving me a wonderful perspective on living. But excess of anything is bad. I just think too much. And now I've just lost it. Life is a sine curve I know, and earlier I used to struggle out of the lows because I knew that life must go on and so a high must come after the low, but exceptions exist right...life is never so bad it can't get worse. And somebody shifted the X-axis of my sine curve up ward, so now even the highest highs are only at the "zero" level...I'm extremely alone, so much that days pass without me speaking a word to another human being. And I'm tired of making that super-extra effort I managed initially to reach out to people. Sure I know a lot of souls around, but I don't really 'know' anyone. Can't really talk to anyone. And the guy who came with me from IIT... :D :D :P...the last I saw him was Nov 6, and he stays on the same floor as me! But damn him, he;s too untolerable for me...
So what is it that's left now. Simply this: it's down to the last two weeks now, nearly. So I should be happy about it and quickly wrap up all I wish to do here before bidding adieu. But instead of lightening up, things have become gloomy. I've finally lost patience with myself, so now I feel resigned to depression. This time, I just don't have the enthusiasm the energy to fight out of it. Which is why I'm writing this post too. To get it back somehow. I'm proud of how fighter I can be! But it's just that I can't live without the enthusiasm the energy, and I hate to die in defeat like this too. To make things worse, the semester is over in IIT, which means almost all of my friends who would earlier chat with me once in a while are either home, or resting, or celebrating their jobs, or sulking, or simply forgotten. To make it worse, my best friend who's the only person who's been talking to me all this while come what may, thinks that he's missing me a lot so he shouldn't talk to me till I come so that out of sight is out of mind. It works for him, and I understand perfectly. I'm dying to meet him once I get back, but what till then....
The last post veryone said that the 1% is what is really me...the bad unsensible stupid loathable thing is really me..the 99% is false..and you are right guys...I'm that loathable thing. I got to accept now. Just who am I kidding. The only problem is, now, how do I survive?Come to think of it, I don't even care. Sometimes I snap, and then I don't have the patience to disguise my self and my feelings. I don't know what's wrong with me, but if I stop lying for once, something is.

If I were you, which means reading this and not writing it, I would say "Don't think so much". and it makes so much sense that DON'T say it. If anything, tell me how?

And dont know if you remember the song you liked on my blog "Wash away those years" by Creed
Here is another one called Falling by Lacuna Coil
"Stained, looking at my hands
I talk with these lines
It's not the answer
I'm crying and I now I know
Looking the sky
I search for an answer
So free, free to be
I'm not another liar
I just want to be myself...myself
And now the beat inside of me
Is a sort of a cold breeze and I've
Never any feeling inside
Around me...
I Bring my body
Carry it into another world
I know I live...but like a stone I'm falling down
Damned, looking into the sky
I can feel this rain
Right now it's falling on me
Fly, I just want to fly
Life is all mine
Some days I cry alone,
But I know I'm not the only one
I see that another day is gone
I don't want to die...
Please be here when I arrive, don't die...please"
oh n btw u can always read the post which lifted you up on my blog...lol :P
you are meant to rise and fly
PS: what a long comment ...phew

You're such a sweetie...thanxxx
Yeah I just ned to hold on and wait and smhow keep dreaming n hoping

and guess what orkut says today
Todays fortune: the heart is wiser than the intellect.
fraud orkut :P
hehe...naah but i dont know maybe heart is wiser..in my case i feel it is..its just i dont listen to it...or maybe i just fear to listen to it..and the mind provides all the right reasons to not to listen to it :)
:) >:D< Lemme know if you DON'T feel a pang of nostalgia the day you're leavin the place!..It's a phase... It's incidents like these that pull you through realisations!
Peace..
[desperado]
"the mind provides all the right reasons to not to listen to it "
Well put! Just depends on who speaks the lie louder between heart and mind.
[venom]
thanx for the hug...
And u say exactly the phrase i use to hold on during ANYTHING..that it's just a phase. It will pass i know
I'm trying!
**shrugs** im the last soul to tell u anything cheery , i know , but babes , hang on .. how? well... thats a Q u need to figure out .. but hang on .. instead of "why me?" try a "ok , so this time its me .. good , fine , I can take this."
like someone say's a lot.... you'll survive...
Dear Phoenix...
Sometimes inconsistencies arising out of innocence and immaturity makes one concerned, and one cannot stop blaming self for those inconsistencies which actually arise out of him being human, hence incomplete. And then I wonder how achievement of a higher level of awareness, intelligence and maturity itself leads one to the same point where all inconsistencies begin. And this endpoint of transition is as vulnerable to loosing its identity as the beginning point was- one doesnt become a 'lesser' human, even after attaining perfection, in fact the only difference between the lesser humans and the fairly complete ones is of definition.
Sometimes it even seems that such awareness is essentially damned, that makes one think of a thousand different things which could have been otherwise avoided; one tends to write and speak fabricated thoughts and unleashes them to go and plug the minds of similar other individuals, the individuals, who, somehow, by virtue of a similar awareness come to know of the fabrication.
I dont know, but feel that all this cycle of rising awareness, maturity and intelligence is not geared towards making us 'Superior Humans' but instead pushes us to a far worse state of humanness.
... And Then, sometimes I pity the so called God, that he is even more mature, even more intelligent, and far more aware of everything... that he is perfect. It feels that he is even lesser human than the immature, unaware others.
I know you dont want any suggestions. But let me give one. Learn to every second of life as an end and not as a means.
Few interesting things that I learnt from this post:
exchange programme is not meant for sensitive girls
Beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder and my eyes are cataracted!
bad unsensible stupid loathable thing is really me
Try reading this post, when you're at the maxima of ur "life curve", and you would laugh over urself for making urself feel so "loathable".
Cheer up. :)
That was scary at almost all the points, but as the title itself says, it's a revisit of yours into this 'realm', and maybe the way out was already laid the last time you visited it, that sounds like relief!
I kind of agree with Doc. Stay afloat and you will survive. Happy thoughts!
[arpz]
yeah i know yar..just got to hang on. and it's working better now...:)
[doc]
who's someone?
and yes, jag ska overleva.
:)
[urpanpro]
thanxxx for the wishes..i am a survivor..wd manage smhow...
[v]
I lovvve all ur comments...and i'm not the onnly one.
You're true...it's like an oft-visited realm...inevitably one has to go in time to time...definitely there is some way out...the former is to remind how beautiful life cd be otherwise in rare moments..the latter to give u hope n relief.
Afterall, all things, good and bad, come to an end.
[amod]
thanx for ur words...but you know what...I always remember n read back thru my happy moments in sad ones, and all the lows in really nice ones...thats quite in line with one of my theories of life, which perhaps one day i shall write out on the blog...
n it always gives me lot more perspective..that is why i dont mind lows that much, and that is why i nearly always hate myself, or parts of myself..irr of how hapy or sad i am.
anyway, i have been trying to cheer up. For two days it's worked. but the weekedn seems like its gonna be lousy again.

Dear Nikhil,
life as you put it, often goes around in circles...or at best spirals, and often solutions seem to end where problems began. They dont say "ignorance is bliss"' without a reason, because the so-called intelligence and awareness eventually leads us to questioning itself by the habit of questioning many other things...and that is when beliefs begin to waiver as we question the root itself. And this comes like a phase periodically lasting for a while disillusioning from time to time what this world is, who We are, who I am and so on. The us vs them, god vs men, futility of life, futility of questioning everything comes like a flood to the mind. It happens to you me most of us and time to time. but we recover..that is also the beauties of this enigmatic life. we somehow recover and form more beliefs yet again.
how should I live life..I dont know...maybe just getting back to living the present without a conscious mode of living would work best, one more time!
Babe, let us all try to appreciate the beauty of life and be happy.Am working on it now. =)
Thanks, me too!
The mood-swings that this blog sees might confuse it some day.
[bellona]
Yeah u r right. Thanx and good luck.
[v]
:)
[Captain subtext]
Ah..well..everyone who knows me, including my blog, is quite used to the swinging moods. I'm sure that even if everyone else stopped, my blog would take the evil fussy me into its stride.
Wow! That was a relief.
I looks like a typical female mood swing. I Admit that i'm wrong in guessing any of those but still if i m right, the blues would go away as fast as they came..[At least once u meet HIM ;)]
[ff]
:)
They dont really go away, but I fight out of them reasonably well mostly.
Too much time to meet HIM though still. :(
