Quantity versus Quality

I’m sitting alone inside my head and wondering best how to utilise the free time that I have. A voice at the farthest corner keeps whispering that I’m doing it all wrong. I hear the dying whispers and ignore it. I know it speaks the truth and the truth is what I fear. As little …

So…

So... The past two weeks have proven to be something of a throwback to my school days. It says something about the experience because I Hate, yes, the caps are intentional, using the word "throwback"; just like I hate using words like "scrumptious" or hearing words like "the-script-demanded-it". Anyway, I spent the week before last …

Work-In-Progress

Forget irritation that scalds your very skin. Forget wounds that make you bleed. Forget pain that licks your bones.  When sadness and disappointment make love with impunity upon your soul and leaves its marks for the world to gawk on, you lose your footing. You twist and fall in a heap with the world around …

Nevermore

It was a Friday. Of course, it was. After all, that is the entire basis of this story. If not for that, I wouldn't have let my train of thought run wild and get lost within its slipstream and let myself be fed upon by these misgivings. It was the weekly Friday namaaz during which …

DIY guide to Nothing

I don’t usually text or call people up and wish them a happy new year. I’m one of those uptight guys who doesn’t celebrate anything. Apart from football, perhaps. Even that is rare, to be honest. I think the most recent football match I saw was around 2 months ago. And I don’t remember the …

Drama versus Wormholes: The Nolan Way

***If you haven't seen Interstellar, then be warned. Spoilers ahead*** Nolan is a great script writer/director/visionary/producer or whatever you want to call him. The first Nolan Movie that I saw was The Prestige. That time I didn't give a damn about the director or writer of the script. I just knew an awesome movie when …

To log in or not?

I have a Facebook account, a Twitter account, a Rediffmail primary email id (yes, yes. Laugh it out. You will snigger and fall off your chair when I tell you it’s my primary address), a Gmail email id, an MSN username, a yahoo chat id and innumerable email log in ids for various sites and …

Triggering a Deluge

I recently went through an experience which I can call an eye opener. I have too many friends. Not that I am complaining but it does seem like an impediment at times. Not that I don’t like them, I love each and every one of them in one capacity or another. The problem arises when …

Not possible, mate!

Having levelled my palace, don't erect a hovel and complacently admire your own charity in giving me that for a home.   What do you know about working hard to get out of your depression? Nothing. If one were to ask me why I go through thoughts that pull me down I’d look at them and …

Lazy Bums

Procrastination! I believe it goes hand in hand with Lethargy. These two are my biggest nemesis. It is well known among my main circle that I love planning. Executing the same is another thing. I think I might have quoted the exact same sentence earlier too. That means I am also predictable, unoriginal, laid back, forgetful …
