Teenage...that was...





A Brand New World....


Its April 11th 2009 today...and oh,long tym since my last post...life is running at full pace,time is still flying like anything and changes are taking place at a really fast pace....At the moment am in Kolkata,for the Easter holidays for 6 days....the month has finally arrived,18th of april i turn twenty,another decade will start...WHEW!!

Contemplation has started already,what i am going to do after this,about how i have shaped up my life for the future till now,about the times i have had,fun and no-fun both, but everything at this moment seems blurred,somehow obscured,a new life will start,every child's dream time,the teens,will be a thing of the past,i can no more say i am a teenager,but to hell with it for now,this will be my subject after 18th.....for now....

I am enjoying life,i always seem to,don't i?or i guess it is at these times only that i write here....i am listening to a song called 'come away with me' by Norah Jones...its a soul touching,awesome rendition...there are a very few songs that make u think and wonder,it differs from person to person,but this is one of those songs,really...anyways....

A lot is on in my life right now,a lot....we just had our college freshers, on Sunday the 5th of April.I enjoyed working as a part of it,organising and anchoring part of the show,it was really a grand success....and in the course of this event that manifested itself on the college,i met some really awesome people,made friends with persons i never knew before and it wasn't bad, they're a really talented bunch of people,all of them,each having their own strenghts in different fields....college i think has become a more bearable place now...

First mention would be of Anirban-the mastermind behind the whole cultural part of the event,give him things like these to do apart from studies,he's a genius...a bit wierd,he has innovative and bizarre ideas in his mind,a computer freak,he loves to blog and keep himself updated,his only problem being the recent cessation of cash from his parents which will hopefully be a small hurdle in his path....

Next,would come Anindyo and Ritabrata,now these two people i know from earlier,cuz we live in the same hostel,and i know rit well enough,him being my classmate...but Anindyo was who i came to know as a person for the first time,he's been dubbed Robinson Crusoe by me,cuz of the slight bushy beard he keeps with the curly hair of his....but this guy is very efficient,a good listener and an entertainer through and through...he's nice as a person and straightforward....me likes him...

Then comes Aninya...my co-anchor for the show..her name is wierd,at the beginning,i could never remember her name,don't know why..simple as it seems,she's smart and imaginative...with a temper that gets the better of her sometimes,stays hereabouts my house,in Dhakuria...anyways,she's sweet in her own ways,but very down to earth,knows what to do when to do something....that is something i would like to take from her if i ever got the chance...

Then comes Monodeep and Suman,Monodeep needs no introduction whatsoever,'One of the BIGGEST personalities of BCET' was what we described him onstage that day,and he is literally....the english-loving movie buff bulldozes his way through the crowd,and its difficult not to notice him,one of the best anchors i have seen with a superb diction,he's sometimes irritating but a good person really apart from the snide comments he keeps passing at Nupur all day with a few returns from her....and we have Suman Iyenger,or as she put it for explanations,Suman I.Y.Anger....but she is far from the angry type,as Anirban has rightly said,this girl from Purulia has charisma,and a permanent smile on her face.But looks are deceiving,ain't they?? She's damn serious about her studies,itches to study literally,and hides a devil beneath her looks, ready to go to the edge anytime...apart from that,i am guessing there's a lot more to discover....

About Nupur and Supratik....well,Supratik,THE tabla player,is a fantastic person,serious and intimidating,wid the 'jamai babu' looks,yet fun loving and childish....i love his dressing sense(the indian part) and really wish him all the luck for 'the battlefield'....and umm....Nupur,she is the only person among all these people that i have interacted the least with i admit....and so,there isn't much that i know bout her....except she's a serious person,really irritated by monodeep and ummm....i guess thats it....

Whew!!! thats a lot....we just started out,there's more to come about these people i am guessing...and i wouldn't want to miss it for the world....

Scared and Safe

 It seems like I go through these sine waves of anxiety and determination. I ride out the waves differently of course. It seems like the anx...
