Stop running away.

Stop running away from your insecurities.
Stop running away from your fears.
Stop running away from the hardships.
Stop running away from your tears.

Start facing the truth.
Start searching for facts.
Start expressing yourself.
Start pulling together your act.

Stop being rude.
Stop being cold.
Stop being dis-heartened.
Stop putting a hold.

Stop lying.
Stop assuming.
Start trying.
Start thinking.

Start smiling more.
Start being there.
Start spreading love.
Start showing you care.

Start accepting errors.
Start amending mistakes.
Start extending your sunshine.
Start living again.

Start experiencing everything around.
Stop running away from life.
Start living openly again.
Start experiencing life.

Put on your Superman robes

Exam-time is just around the corner. What scares me more than the exams are the project deadlines :P It's interesting, as soon as you get into the third year in IIIT-Delhi, exams lose their importance and projects become the all-important of many courses. It is a great thing owing to the kind of hands-on experience it provides, the experience it leaves us with, but then of course, the work is also there :P

Anyway, so I was just thinking of all the exam-times which I have spent in this Institute, that is whatever I could remember. The only thing that I can remember from the first year, is the NSIT labs, staying back after some exam to sit together and study. Also, the late night calls to people in the hope of understanding stuff which makes sense only at 2 A.M in the night. Studying together on Gtalk, on group chats, "Kab tak jaag rahe ho ? Yaar mujhe 10 minute main call kar ke jagah dena. ". Amazing. Amazing time that was. I can only smile whenever I think of those times. The same can be said for the second year I believe. Till the time we did not have electives and most of the courses were same, such was the state at the time of End-Sems. The calls lessened as we took the Hostels, but well that part is for another post. I don's think I would have made it through those five end-sems without the kind of people that were there then :P

And then, the last semester! The only thing that I remember of the last sem, first sem of the third year, are the PROJECTS! I dont remember sitting together solving problems, discussing solutions to questions or anything along those lines, but what I do remember are projects and that too loads of work just towards the end of the semester.

Where am I getting to ? We are entering that crazy-no-sleep-too-many-projects phase of our semester. It's just like ten days till the end of the sem and it's time to put on your Superman robes. It's time to get into the oh-I-am-so-crazy mode and start working like that's the only thing left in life :P
It's not something that we can't do, for sure. We have done it before, we can do it again. We just need those robes ;) And everyone, mind it, everyone has their own set of personal Superman robes.  We just sometimes tend to forget to put them on, or forget where we placed them after last using them.

Get them out. Dust them. Put them on. Get working \:D/

It's not fair.

It is absolutely not fair.
It is just not fair.
It is not justifiable nor is it explainable.
It just doesn't make sense!

In this World, there is a lot of sleep as well as work! No! One of the two should be present. At least at one particular time!

We should be able to enjoy both of them, isn't it ? But this way, we get to enjoy none of the two! One gets sacrificed because of the other ALWAYS!
If you think of completing all the work, you are bound to lose your "beauty sleep", if you plan to sleep peacefully then there is no way that you can complete the work. Oh, when I am talking about work, I am talking about work of the IIIT-Delhi level. Work which guarantees to make you eligible for the "Busy Bee" badge on Backpack atleast twice in twenty days :P

For the record, I am not cribbing about workload or something, I am just stating the fact that both of them co-existing is not fair though there isn't much that can be done about it either.

So anyway, point being:
- I have work
- I want to sleep
- It's not fair

:P

Work work work work work work work \:D/

"Chanda ki paalki mein dil ki muraad layi
Jannat ka noor leke mehndi ki raat aayi"

No. The above two lines have no reference to absolutely anything! Nothing at all! Just the lyrics of some random song being played over and over and over and over and over. 

THERE IS SO MUCH WORK.

There. I said it \:D/

It's almost like work is like these small little balloons filled with water(reference: Holi) and you are being pelted from every possible direction. And the best part is ? You are in this open field with absolutely NO place to hide \:D/
Wonderful, isn't it ? 

It begins like this, initially it comes as a shock and you try to duck, dodge, deal with the balloons, after sometime, you even start enjoying the entire act of being pelted from each direction. However, after all this, there comes a moment when you are just like, ENOUGH. Either you decide to do something of the ongoing attack or you just become immune to them. 

I have NO IDEA what I want to say. 

I am tired. Exhausted \:D/
Currently, even funny :P

Okay, that's it.
Kthx for reading, it made no difference at all \:D/
