Life always teaches you something

I think that as time passes and you see more and more of life, be it a lot more than some, or a lot less than another, you always experience new things, learn to handle those things you once couldn't, achieve new insights into things you didn't understand before, gain new perspectives ...

I am now in a stage, where I believe everything in life - good or bad, taught me something, and well the way I perceive things changes everyday... Some of my experiences that I tried to block out, now I can view in perspective, understand why it was so in a better light ... and not all that I once believed, I now believe to be true...

I now can see that life has more than one path, and there is no right road, just different roads, that show you a different way, there might have been shortcuts you could have taken, but sometimes its better to follow a longer route, if you are not in a hurry. You might lose the road you were trying to follow, when you followed your curiosity and went off to make your own road, but you may still make a path that someone else may find ... if not at least you something not everyone sees.

I sometimes wander in those paths I choose to make, finding new paths, or maybe some long forgotten ones ... but I know that what matters is that I enjoy the road I take, and learn to handle the rough patches, make the most of life, that I do not stand still, because then I see nothing new, and my life sees not what it could see. I would always like to keep moving along, so that I find new road, and see more and more in my one time ticket to this life ...

TV SERIAL - EXTREME ADDICTION!!!

This is something that when I put into words might not be giving you even half the effect of what I had witnessed ... but well its still worth mentioning in a post - so I think you would enjoy it ...

There is this friend of mine, that is half out of her mind ... who watches all the serials from when she reaches back from office till about 11pm ... that would be roughly 3 to 4 hours, that is about 6 to 8 serials... I find these pretty boring and rarely watch ... and often feel watching once in a month could give you the entire story ... anyway people differ in interests ... so as 80% of my PG mates are addicted to serials I do other things which interest me more like reading, meeting friends and so on ...

One such day ... I was sitting reading a book peacefully, when my friend found a particular serial episode hard to digest and decided enough was enough ... she came into the room, and let me also tell you that she hates it when I am lost in my books ... So my dear wild and crazy roommate decided to make as much nuisance of herself as possible in order to disrupt my reading ... my guess is that she was bored without the serial and well unless she is occupied with something, she tends to go on her "totally crazy" mode ...

This was how what I would call "the height of serial addiction" took place ... she began by enacting the key parts of each serial she saw that day, with dialogues (so loud - i think the whole pg heard) and high animation, striding to and fro in the room (and all the while munching an apple when time permits :D ... ). This sure did bring me out of my lost world (book) and well I guess I was laughing too much in less than a few seconds. To her extreme bad luck and my good luck, I had my camera handy, and managed to videotape most of her antics ... This included a lot of giggling, apple munching, each serial enaction separated by her saying - "thadak thadak thadak - change", followed immediately by the next serial (its really cool when there are no advertisements - he he). In the end she even showed how she ran and switched off the TV (due to the really unbearable episode) and ran back to the room as a result ... and the whole thing she snded with a "the end" and then munching on her apple wiith full concentration - which was what made the climax ultimate on video...

Well it goes without saying, I called the rest of my hostel mates to review my new show ... and no one could stop laughing ... and I have to say the theatrics was absolutely fabulous, the apple adding the punch ... it was really a nonstop rundown of all serials that day, in 2 minutes flat ... wow ... he he he ... But since I gave my word of honour to keep that video to myself, I guess I cant share that priceless masterpiece ... sad ...
