exams

The beginning Summer brings with it the joy of ice cream, trees in full bloom, sunny days. It brings with it a great sense of nostalgia, a reminiscence of those carefree days where for two months, I did nothing but play, go to camp, fight with my cousin and play some more.

Suddenly as the tendrils of summer extend to drip sweatily across my forehead, it has all somehow turned into humid days of harsh heat, an endless dryness in the throat, nightmares about incomplete exam papers and a sense of knowing that I am doomed.

The weeks fly by, I do nothing. Occassionally I remember them, laugh at remoteness and put on a brave front. But before I know it they are here, comfortably settled on my shoulders, whispering threats in my ears.

It is the day before the day before the exams. Tomorrow I wake up and there is no choice, there is no procrastination- only a blind panic of knowing nothing except that it is too late to now. Tomorrow and the days that follow will hold me in their grip, they will taunt me with their jeers, time will elude me.

I long for that day when its all over and I can go about watching films and eating the proverbial pani puri in peace.

current obsessions.

I cannot get over this woman.

This movie in particular. This mad character she plays.. and her.
