The year that was...

Long time since the last post again..i never learn and i'll always be as lazy as i've always been::D..ok whatever.. Finally i've turned 20 after 20 long years..i thought i'd never get through such a day coz 19 seemed to be too long..and i was having enough of it..i've never had a more disastrous year in my life..everything that ever happened to me..i dont even want to look back or cherish it like most people would want to cherish their last teenage year..anyways i thought it was quite a break since my last post and now it would be a good time to actually look back and see what went wrong..where and why..though i'm not going to write down details here..just a superficial recap of how 2007 was and how i want 2008 to be.. 2007 started on a really bad note..things went completely out of hand with a friend..i messed up my 3rd sem exams big time..donno what got into me that i was almost broken..it took some while to get over it.. Our 4th sem kicked off..going to college was for the first time a relief and a much wanted distraction..subjects as usual were really kewl;)..we gave our juniors an awesome freshers day..while we actually regretted the fact that we didn't have a proper one:D..(hopefully none of our seniors read this bit) The next worst thing to happen was our college day..it was raining cats and dogs and we didnt even have proper shelter for the onlookers..they had to watch the programs standing as the seats were all wet..and as for us..we were dancing in the rain:)):D And then came my 19th b'day..the day i so looked forward to bcoz it was my last teenage year and i wanted to make it the most wonderful and happening in my life..ironically it didn't turn out so:..whatsoever i got my mob connection:)..(after much pleading and reasoning with dad..which was a very tough part) Next up came my very wonderful S3 results..my world didn't actually come crashing down as i had expected it to be that way..i deserved it anyways..and i thought i had learnt a lesson..which later i realized i really hadn't bcoz i never learn: Then the S4 exams happened..i had a really good time i should say..got things back on track with friends..i couldn't be more happier and things went really smooth for about 3 months i guess... Our IV happened sometime during september..which was the most unforgettable 7 days i ever had(especially the nepali guy near the monastery:D)..there werent any limits to how much we enjoyed together..the shopping at commercial street..the marathon run for the KFC chicken:D..the rain dance at wonderla..too awesome to describe..the breathtaking mysore palace..finally our last stop at coorg....and the most unforgettable was the game we played that night..woke up a lot of people at midnight..pp's press club jokes and fan club meetings:p..we had a really great time..except for a mistake on my part which i dont want to discuss about at least here..but everything changed after that..everything.. Came back home with a heavy heart..missed those days really bad..as always in my case, things too good never last..donno why..:) Then came our intra college tech fest 'Srishti'..kp and i ventured into the unknown territory of presenting a paper..we were nervous to the core..but i said we're going to do it whatsover..and unexpectadly we came out first..i couldn't believe it but that was the happiest and the most wonderful thing that happened to me in 2007..for once i was proud of myself..and kp:p(it wouldn't have happened without her:) October came and my sis landed with my 3 and a half month old nephew..anu..he was the next best thing that happened to me:):)..no wonder they say children are a bundle of joy:) Unfortunately my mob stopped functioning much to my horror..i was in exile for about 2 months i should say..didn't get to use the net too coz sis was busy using it..and mom and dad seemed to be so happy about my situation coz they consider the net and my mob my 2 main distractions..they thought it would be the right time i actually start opening my engineering text books for a change..hehe..evidennu..njan alle!:p..but life didn't seem so bad after all with anu around..actually the 'exile' position was a blessing in disguise..i realized i was spending more time with my family..which i never really did coz i was too busy getting distracted:)..i did sign into messenger once in a while and only 1 person bothered to leave me offlines:)..and i'm grateful for it..>:d< 2008 finally started..and thankfully it wasn't bad like the beginning of 2007..exams kicked off..was too busy to think of anything else but how to scrape through all the papers..:D..and finally that came to an end on jan 24 Now my fav:D..feb was the most happening month in my life and the best too for a whole lot of reasons:):)..all my close friends know why..and things changed for the best:):) Finally i found myself on the morning of april the 13th staring at a 20 year old on the mirror:..well at that moment i really didnt want to be 20..i felt too old:D coz i still feel like i'm 15..donno why saying that you're 19 and saying that you're 20 makes such a lot of difference..its like there's a 10 year gap between the two..but i had to be 20 right..ha whatever..:) I wanted to write this before i turned 20 but as my other half didn't let me(i'e laziness)..i'm doing it now.. Now there were a few things i wished to change about myself this year..i was successful with a few though not with all of them.. 1)I used to really get bothered about why people were indifferent..even the people you thought were your best friends..and i used to be so affected by it..but later i learnt they have their reasons to be so and that its perfectly normal..so now it doesn't affect me anymore:) 2)Misunderstanding and lack of communication can cost a lot..so now i've stopped keeping things in mind..whatever i feel is out in seconds..without a second thought..:) 3)I thought mom and dad would feel i was more responsible to handle things myself..but they still treat me like a 5 year old..i guess that'll never change..:) 4)Even though mom and dad doesn't..i feel i've become more matured:D..well at least to a certain extent..and i guess that's more important:) 5)For some reason i've started taking life a bit more seriously..for someone:) Well that's about it..and i'm feeling so good about posting this..donno why:)..will bore you more later on..and no more swearing about posting regularly this time..coz swearing isn't for people like me..will post when i'm enlightened again:D:)
