just another day!

Though I got up on the right side of the bed (there is only 1 side to get out from anyway in the small hole that I live in), the day was nothing like my other days. I mean, other days I have much more to do. Today I didn't do anything.
I got up from a really regular dream. I mean it was pretty everyday and boring. Infact I could have gone to sleep only in that dream. Had my breakfast, went for a class that wasn't mine. I mean it's not my elective but i wasnt sure about it. I have done this a lot in the past. I have forgotten the subjects that I'd taken from the bouquet (by the way, the bouquet has the same kind of flowers and they are all boring and repetitive) also because they sound the same, like branded entertainment and branded science et al. So I've had to go to these classes, find out if my name's there on the attendance sheet and figure out if I'd taken that elective or not. One can't imagine the no. of mornings I have wasted to go to the class only to find out this wasn't my class. Anyway, after repeated suggestions and advices I have now managed to find out about all my electives.

Ya so the 1 lecture I attended turned out to be really uninteresting. I came back, ferreted out somethings about my dissertation on global warming and climate change, but there is just SO MUCH online. So ya I came down to this topic also after a lot of thinking and unthinking and thinking. But it does really interest me. I mean it would really interest me to find out the implications, what are the different guilds that are likely to get affected such as the auto-lobby, what theme the political agendas such as that of Al Gore's play in this whole debate on energy resources between the developed and the developing countries.
I do know very very little on it, but Mathew says Seek the truth and truth will set you free. I think he is right and he's the one who egged me on to go ahead with this topic, even though the dissertation defense committee thought it wasn't relevant. Anyhow, how do they or I know what can or will not help me in my life. O I think they were talking about my career. So anyhow, these days, even when I dont have much to do, I have these very stupid deadlines for every leg of the dissertation which is absolutely outrageous because it's your baby and you're supposed to take time with it and not force things on it.

Ya, so having done that, I was just going to sleep for a bit when I went to the studio to record a little something on the violin for a friend. It sounded absolutely horrible. But in my defense, i played after a long time and I wasnt confident at all. Only if violins had frets and someone to tune them on campus. But anyhow, I also laughed and laughed because of the way I sounded. So anyhow, after my college I have decided 1 full year, Im going to learn to play the violin properly, dance odissi or bharatnatyam or something, go for a language class and then play in the night. Ya that is idyllic, but that's how I intend to make it. Hopefully I will have saved something to do all this.

Oh, I waited for the frog to go out of my damn room for such a long time. They are extremely funny, if they are facing south sitting on the door, ready to go out and if you prod them more to urge them to go even outer, they would panic and turn north and hop inside your room. So this happened twice and then I let it be. Finally it had to be picked by the hand and thrown out of Chandni (Ya, that's my house in my college, and it's funny but with time people just get used to it, just like everyone in my school got used to talking about Mr. Potty but made for a good laugh if we mentioned it out of the school circles)

Oh yes, important thing. Never play immediately after having food. or it could be mushrooms. But I would say food. It takes a toll on your stamina.

Oh yes, tomorrow Debo goes to college, first day...I hope it's nice. Infact I hope in the 4 years that he stays at home, he's able to find his calling. Lots of luck and best wishes!

Later
