The New Year. ( and the return of Amityboy)

Sitting down in my car that morning i had no idea what i was in store for. I started the car and turned towards the main road from my house. As my luck would have it, it had been raining that night and in my way i saw this large chunk of dirty, slimy green debree... ok so it was just a fallen tree... so i spun the car around, while a bunch of other idiots who decided to stand there and look pretty until the tree was cleared cuz they were too lazy to do anything, stood there. I drove around the colony down the other side to come onto the parallel (or is it parrallel) road for the main road and to my utter surpise saw that there was a jam. As i looked on ahead onto the main road i could see that nothing was moving, the cars just stood there as though they had been paralyzed or frozen, knowing what was going on around them but unable to move a muscle to do anything about it. So i decided to cut through the colony and take the service lane exit out. As i reached it i saw the same horrors. All those cars and buses just frozen there. Standing, watching, so still like those terrecotta warriors. I spun around only to be faced by a bunch of cars trying to get out and squeeze into the mix of already thousands of cars on the street. I drove through like a mad man, trying to reach the market before it was too late. As i turned at the market traffic lights i realised that it was only the cars on that street which didnt move, as if suspended in time and no one else seemed to notice. What diabolical sceme was this?! I drove straight, straight down the road blowing past all the cars and scootys that got in my way, going around ansal plaza via gargi just so i could get back onto the BRT so i could reach moolchand flyover and drive away to noida. I reached halfway down the road only to be stopped short by the evil traffic jam that had creeped its way so far beyond the line. I inched slowly and steadyly down to the brt, trying to avoid the typical delhi drivers who think squeezing through every gap they can find will help them get through the jam faster, every driver who believed that he or she could avoid the jam by cutting in front of all the others, every driver who thought that he or she was in more of a rush as the guy they just tried to cut across. After what seemed like weeks (25 minutes actually) i reached the end of the road, turned hopeing to find the light, the path that would freely and smoothly take me where i needed to. But alas, it wasnt so. Again stopped short by the very bluelines and dtc busses i had sworn to avoid, by the very models of cars i had just dodged, the jam i had just thwarted. I was once again stuck, but now all i needed was a hundred metres and i was home free. I rejoiced as managed to make the turn sooner than i had expected, but as i did i feared my joy was in vain. There in front of me was a (quote) massive monster mama jam (unquote-Jack Black) trying to squeeze through a gap meant for 2 cars at a time. But no, Luck was on my side this time (for once) and i managed to get through without breaking a sweat. Ha! Piece of cake. I thought. Smooth sailing from there to college, why i drove no hands on the dnd and laughed at the poor suckers stuck at the other side of the road for miles and miles around me. But how was i to know what dissappointment fate had in store for me, how was i to know that this was nothing but the calm before the storm. (insert favourite such saying here if you want). As i reached college i was happy to know that my usual parking spot was availible. Overjoyed i reversed into the empty slot next to a mercedes and an accord. An ugly gold ford ikon between two cars like that. Well atleast it added some colour to their poor black and black lives, i said to myself. I walked taking all my documents with me, looking forward to a fruitful day of reregistration, going home and a nice long nap. As i walked in to campus a pleasant surprise, my block was air conditioned. Wow!!! This is cool. I mean literally, its like 45 degrees outside this was like bliss. I went to my teachers to submit the remaining documents only to find out that i had been duped. Some Villains nefarious plot had them make additional forms for us to fill for submission and once we did that only then would we be re registered into college.

Another day of torturing driving through the tormented streets of New Delhi only to reach this hell hole know to the unlucky select few as College. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!

And then to find out there might be a dress code. No long hair, no pierced ears, no jeans, shorts, t-shirts etc etc. Shirts Pants Ties Suits only. The horror the horror!!!!

I Would not stand for this, once again it was time to (in the words of Barney Stinson, i think its stinson, could someone check that for me) SUIT UP!

Amityboy was back for another year at college. Oh how he loates the college, the vicious money making factory of students. A place with no love, no hope, no faith and worst of all almost no trees. Oh the agony, all those cars coming in and no trees to compensate.

The evil hordes of teachers who live to torment and torture the innocent (and not so innocent) souls of the students who came there with a dream for a good education, turning them into zombies, brainwashed by the uncommon teaching tactics make specifically to bore student into submission, so that they bunk and get short attendance, so that they dont pay attention and they fail their papers. So that the college can make a shit load more money! Those vile evil ******************.

But this year we shall not fall to them. This time we will not fail, we will attend our classes, we will not sleep, or oversleep as the case may be. We will defeat them! Amityboy has returned, noidas most insane, inane, intolerable, annoying and practically unknown superhero.

sheer and simple boredumb!!!

ok so im really bored! as if dealing with with life in general wasnt enough, my college is getting worse and worse everyday. And i didnt even think that was possible!! So we just got news that we may be merging the degree with amity university, meaning we wont be affiliated to meerut univ anymore. I mean thats a good thing right?! getting your own degree and not being affiliated with a govt. college!!! Not if amity is supposedly blacklisted in a bunch of univs abroad! i mean how are we going to do an LLM there is they dont recognise the degree! that would be pretty embarassing dontcha think?! rethorical question dont answer that.

So anyway the 4 of us (us being me, medi, G, and Bharat) are planning a trip down to Gokarna on october. Should be killer. G just got back from a 2 week vacation from down south and getting himself a new girl friend, who he does not want to screw up the relationship with as he puts it 'three fucked up relationships would be......(better left unsaid if you catch my drift)... As for me i'm still single lol, but wtf man! i know mera kuch nahi hone waala!!! pommie was trying to set me up with some friend of his (or his girlsfriends{whos name she doesnt like being mintioned here[or so i heard]}) lol, so anyway getting away would be good. As it is im leaving for mumbai on thursday. catching my flight to the states from there with my cousin! goin of to NYC and Stamford CT for a holiday to meet the family! im glad i need out of this city. My life is just crappy here i mean maybe this is just a bad year for me! But whatever it is i guess i should be able to get through i mean ive been through everything else as it is!

so apart from that no news is good news right! oh and did i mention if we do manage to get the switch in degrees at college we'll go from having 5 subs a sem to 15 subs a sem! so we are officially and royally screwed!! yowch! Im outta here on thursday! so that means i miss the freshers party which is on that day! he he like i care!

so seeing that im outta here soon i guess the next post will come when:-

1. im bored (most likely)
2. something really exciting happens (dont sit there gaping it could happen)
3. i get a new girlfriend(lol yes i have seen myself in a mirror i know its tough)
4. i get a groundbreaking idea(hmmm that has been known to happen...rarely)
5. i invent something(yeah sure)
6. i win a nobel prize or an emmy or an oscar or a grammy or an mtv music award(wtf???)
7. i get magical powers and transform into a superhero
8. i learn to dance(people whove seen me dance will probably laugh at this)
9. i get a new girlfriend(oh wait did i write that already, heellllppp)
10. i have nothing to do and im staring at a computer screen for no reason(very very likely)

so thats all the random idiotic irritating and full of crap stuff i can think of right now. if you hav any ideas leave a comment and ill be sure to put it up...if i remember im supposed to put it up that is!

Stuck outside Agni!! Useless bloody place

How many of you have actually waited hours and hours outside a club, waiting to get in when all the rest of your friends or the group have gotten in!!!! Yeah you, you and even you, yes the guy in the back pretending your too cool to read blogs.... Well i just did that last night. You see a friend of ours has come back from singapore (read previous post) and planned a get together at Agni in the park hotel at CP (connaught place for those not from around here). Well as the case would have it me and Pommie aka Pavneet, were on curfew, cuz obviously our folks were tired of our partying ways and chose to start keeping us in line. Brilliant huh? So we were not asked but "ordered" as Tanvi put it to be there, entry would be free, it would be good fun etc etc...see now we couldnt take all that much money from out folks cuz we had already been usin so much already. lol. Back to the point though..i believe we were to get into the club by 10 at the latest 10.30, but as our luck would have it there were complications and everyone else got in by 11-11.30, but the brilliance was that we three( me, pommie and karan{friend of pommie}) didnt get in...we then waited till like 12.15 and finally left. All of us fairly angry with the fact that, IF ITS NOT A SURE SHOT THING THAT YOUR GOING TO GET INTO A BAR THEN DONT GO THERE, whenever we go we know were gonna get in. Which is why we were trying to change the location of the place to F Bar at the Ashoka cuz we knew people there and we knew we would get in!!! lol Karan was right when he said this is something were going to remember for the rest of our lives. It has to be the most anooying thing ever. We go where we know the owners which is why we can have the place closed down for private parties, which is what pommie did for his birthday at the glass lounge. See now that was still fun...if only there were more women though..Poor sumedha, thats his girlfriend, im sure was thoughroughly bored....but such is life....

So anyway next time Tanvi comes i think she should take our advice and plan the party where we tell her cuz we know we can get in no matter what! So tune in again for more news Different time Same channel...if they dont shut me down for writting bullshit that is....oh wait this is simplistic bullshit, ofcourse i can write it....lol....

Out of Sheer Boredom

So i had 4 out of 7 papers in july, and as its tradition with Amity something had to go wrong. I mean first they were delayed till july and now three of them (2 normal and one back) got postponed. lol. And the dates are weird, i mean 1 on the 6th then the 7th and finally the last on the 27th. 20 whole days till the next paper, i mean how annoying is that. And in all probability the new session, which starts for the freshers on the 5th, starts for us (prospectively) on the 12th of frikkin september. As per my last post i have broken up with Aishwarya, and im pretty sure its for good. A bunch of friends are tryin to help me get over her. lol. Its not really a funny thing, but the whole scenario is really funny at my end.
I am also considering something Pommie (Pavneet Singh) said to me some time back. So he should be happy i'm takin it into consideration, although he would beg to differ and say i'm the one who should be happy.
Life apart from that is still pretty boring. A friend of mine is comin back from singapore, she was at toni and guy academy, so we are getting a small mirror and a chair under a nice tree where she can cut hair. lol alot of places have old fashioned barbers who sit under trees and cut peoples hair. Happens in alot of rural places in India too, even some parts of the bigger cities. Indians would get the joke.
Yes i know these newer posts arent nearly as interesting as the older ones, infact this one is probably downright boring. Im also reading a new book by a man called Neil Strauss called The Game. Its pretty good, im half way through the book and its already got me thinking, and really thinking, but its not something i choose to discuss. People should read the book. Its gives them a whole new look at life, it showed me a wider aspect of alot of things i already knew and then some. A must read for all geeky and nerdy guys.
anyway ive probably bored you enough with my rantings, so im not writin till i have something interesting to say.

A Much needed thing for me

Silence isnt always bliss, i should know. Being silent about so many things for so long hasnt really helped me much. I'm not really sure why i decided to stay silent, let everyone else do the talking and just stand on the sidelines trying not to look troubled. May have made the others feel better, but me, not so much. I still feel like a nervous wreck sometimes. Dont really know why I didnt really open up or anything, i mean there are umpteen people i know i can talk to and who i know wont judge anything i say and will be there for me, i just dont know. Maybe its easier to write things down in places like these where people barely read stuff, (grin) i mean after the massive writers block i'm pretty sure i lost all my loyal fan following, that is if i had any. Its not like i get comments anymore is it!!?
The fact remains that i still have to deal with all these problems.
My taiji(my dads elder brothers wife) passed away last week, and i havnt been able to express how sad i am, i couldnt scream or cry, all i did was punch the wall. I didnt cry for days, and then i finally broke down. I still feel weird about it knowing that i was the one who helped carry that body, first from the mortuary to the house, then back down six flights of stairs to the herse and carrying the body to the crematorium where i actually helped put her onto the carrier which put her into the electric furnace. It was the first time i ever did something like this, and i was never close to guessing how unnerving it is. I dont know how i can live with the fact that it was my hands that helped put her in that furnace. It just hurts. As my mom and Bhua( dads sister) recall, as a kid i was really close to my tai, i once said, i dont have a tai, i have 2 moms.
I dont feel unto discussig my other problem anymore. Writing this down has taken alot.
But maybe writing about that will help me feel better about that too.
The fact that my girlfriend and i broke up a couple of days before my taiji passed away. Her reasons are understandable, but its still hard, added with everything thats going on with me right now, and i cant bring myself to tell her how exactly i feel because i know how I'll over react to everything going on around me. I just have to get through this whole thing.
That does make me feel better. I guess spilling, or atleast partially spilling your guts out in writting on a page people barely ever visit is a good thing, you can feel better about telling someone without actually worrying about anything it.

Exam-A-Mania is back!!! and then some

Woohoo!!! Exam-A-Mania is back!! The two month long exam givin, retest givin, admit card recieving, long hours of crammin, high speed writin is back...and with a vengence.
As the upper sntence states, like last year my lovely college, The Amity Law School, Noida, which by the way is located on one floor of a building...the floor isnt even very big and we dont even have every class on the floor, which basically means that one batch is stuffed into one class...thats like 80+ kids a class....holy DPS style classrooms batman.
As i was saying....the exam season is back..."tis the season to be jolly, fa la la la la la la la la"
We shall resume the two month long season of giving exams right after a 2 month long semester...hmmm some college education i'm getting. I probably would have been better of at Dyal Singh College, doing english...or even history. Well one good thing may be the new director. Yes! we have booted the great S.P Singh into oblivion...or so we thought....this new guy ( whos name i dont know by the way, the teachers refuse to tell us too) may actually be a good thing for the floor..oops sorry college. I mean we got an assignment, our first real assignment in two whole years. 5 case analysis and a 400 word essay on global warming and how we can combat it legally... kinda funny topic but its a start.

ok...so we had a large chunk of the winters going back and forth from collage and home as usual...but who would hav thunk that we would have open book tests which would be counted in our internals...i think they were doin that so there wouldnt be a bunch of re tests and re re tests and re re re tests...HA! Fat chance of that not happening! This is Amity baby, We make it our duty to go through atleast two rounds of tests...lol...and as of now our external exams date sheet is tentatively set to arrive on the 12th of feb....

On the happier side, me and aishu have finished 5 months, making this my longest relationship....so yay us!!! lol.. and i am also going for the first show of the Somewhere Back in Time Iron Maiden world tour bay-bee....woo hoo.....Me happy.

Apart from all that life is pretty calm...its been officially 9 and a half months since i quit smoking....i sure hope no one from my family gets to this blog!! or i'm screwed...especially if one of my tattletale cousins get here....

So its 10 in the morning i got up at like 6 today..coulndt sleep and in a while Aishu called cuz she had woken up from a nightmare, shes been getting alot of then recently....So anybody know where i can get a Dream Catcher. She went back to sleep after talking to me, seemed much happier. :) see smiley face.

Now I am blank again...still suffering from bouts of writers block...cuz i cant seem to write any decent reports or poetry or anything...thankfully i can write all kinds of stuff here. I shall finish here before it begins to sound like gibberish.
