I want to be atop a bus, and feel the air whipping across my face, and look at the sky, and hug my knees.
I want a tattoo, and I want to bear the pain. I want SLEEP. I want to be THIN. I want nice hair. I am DEPRESSED. i fucken hate this post. I DON"T want this post. IT's typically emo and rant-y- and that is not even a word. I want Moll. I HATE so many people it's not funny. I hate that pesky neighbour staring at me every night as I smoke, I hate those hypocrites all over the world, i hate that woman because she is such a control freak, and i even hate YOUR mentality because damn you life is bizarre AND IT DOES NOT WORK OUT THE WAY IT DOES INSIDE YOUR STUPID STUPID HEAD. And yes, I smoke up! You have a problem you little sissy mama's girl?

I love tonight. Just the perfect blend of headiness. Wine, cake, an empty house, vintage jazz, lovely little moments with the self, and thoughts inside your head. How simple it is to be happy. I am warm, and sleepy and I can hear my toes purring..*happy sigh*



"Love me love me love me
Say you do
Let me fly away
with you
For my love is like
the wind
And wild is the wind

Give me more
than one caress
Satisfy this
hungriness
Let the wind
blow through your heart
For wild is the wind

You...
touch me...
I hear the sound
of mandolins
You...
kiss me...
With your kiss
my life begins
You're spring to me
All things
to me

Don't you know you're
life itself
Like a leaf clings
to a tree
Oh my darling,
cling to me
For we're creatures
of the wind
And wild is the wind
So wild is the wind

Wild is the wind
Wild is the wind "

Things are absolutely crazy, and i should really not write anymore, because it is pointless, and extremely so. 
Weddings are quite enjoyable, only if you don't have to spend an entire evening walking around in stilettos. And taking them off out of sheer frustration and then getting yourself pricked by random sharp things lying around. Also, wearing a blazer over a beeootiphool saree because it's freezing. 


The lack of sensitivity bothers me a lot, and I should have known. I so should have known.


pause drama.

The Works.

yes, another december. Exams are finally over, and i can make lots of plans. I don't think all of them will be executed, but the joy of random planning! I plan to-


> bake sinful chocolate cakes
> travel to the peace house again
> run away for a day
> finish reading around seven books lying untouched
> steal a friend's camera and take chhobis
> write a script with the ranabir
>spend alone time with the boyfraand if he has the time
> grow my own weed.


This is a tentative list, subject to alterations. Also, digression- IIM Joka fried Maggi is brilliant. =D

Epiphany.

I have just realised the pleasures derived from a hot shower after relentless studying. The rich lather that covers every part of the self, the fragrances of soap and shampoo, the mirror, where you can draw with your fingers...aah! This, my friends, is nothing short of heavenly joy. 


=D
