Spasm of Creativity...

...takes over during the time before exams. Also, I must now make a list about the next couple of months. Joy!

1. Go to Delhi (that part of the year when posts will be under "Delhi Times").

2. Freeze.

3. Buy new sweaters from Allen Solly to prevent solidification of blood (Allen Solly has this buy one get one free on its winter wear)

4. Visit people.

5. SHOP.

6. Watch Avatar (I know it's pathetic that I haven't yet, but I blame the fact that it's always house full :( )

Standard Delhi plan. This time around, Pengy would also be in Delhi for an internship. So we shall all meet and go shopping together! What fun.

Babyness

All of us may not have a baby voice, but some of us do. It comes most handy while tyring to get something out of people (especially when you sense that it's not something they'd yield to ordinarily), while apologizing (it takes a very hard heart to resist the force of Ze Babyness), while making a ridiculous point which cannot be made in adultspeak but is extremely important in that conversation (Illustration: when your argument primarily is that you think so and therefore it's so). Clearly, adultspeak cannot achieve these miraculous outcomes and therefore the importance of babyness must not be dwarfed. It shouldn't be expected of us (the illuminated ones who use this weapon often) to form a secret society to bond over our style of babyness. In fact, the fact whether one knows about your babyness or not is an indicator of how well they know you/ how well you've let them know you. So, why be adult when you can be baby?

New Template... In hope of developing good blogging habits

I am under a rather delusional impression that if I change my template to something refreshing, it would motivate me to blog more often. You see, in this spree of noticing patterns in my life, I have also noticed that I'd been the most content when I'd been blogging frequently. So this is an emergency side-post of sorts, to record this thought. I like purple so I hope to keep blogging to fill my life with more purple-ness. There. It's done. Have a good day!

Music and Productivity

I tend to be one of those who cannot for the life of her decide which band would have the distinction of being her "favourite". Neither can I listen to a particular band for weeks on end. I also cannot keep listening to new music because I simply cannot appreciate most music until I listen to it repeatedly, on loop, google the band, read about them and so on (not that my memory is very fond of retaining most of what I read). This process usually spans over a few days to a month or so- largely decided by the degree of my enchantment with the band. My current obsession is Death Cab for Cutie but I haven't been able to explore much of their music because of lack of access to well, most of their music. That's on my to-do list though, procuring their music. I think the most productive phases of my life have been those when I was constantly listening to new music. One possible explanation could be that it puts one's mind in motion and therefore it generally becomes more receptive and therefore, quicker and there more productive...?

Anyway, I also badly need to do an update on places to eat in Bangalore. NEED to update that tag. I've been to a couple of places since the last time I wrote on the subject.

Also, to spice things up- I shall bring to you the juciest details of recent exhibitions of Woogs' eccentricity. It's fascinating.... Next post.

Note to Self, Again

Don't lose control. Ever.

This blog is swiftly transforming into digital post-its to self.

Note to Self: Focus

On things that matter.

And that actually make a difference.

And that are almost completely in your own hands.

No point mulling over unfairness. And things which tend to waste other precious things.

Being Nice

I think it's high time I became nicer. In life. To people. Law school has a tendency to make you do/say things that wouldn't have ever crossed your mind had you not been here. Mundane, inconsequential comments about what people are doing, saying, thinking, wearing etc. It really would never bother anybody in any other environment perhaps. But in law school, since people are bored out of their wits when they're not dying under dead lines or want to be nasty while dying under deadlines for relieving pressure (I know, v sadistic)- which basically means all the time- they.... we often tend to be mean and horrible. It's not a nice thing and it should stop!

So now I shall try v v hard to not be unnecessarily nasty (not that one ever needs to be necessarily nasty, but I shall save that liberty) and stay away from conversations that are less about the people taking part in it and more about people who're not there.

While this is not particularly in the nature of a resolution for the new year, but it nonetheless is a resolution of sorts. This reminds me, I need to buy a 2010 diary and organizer.
