Kya tha, kya se kya ho gaya-aa-aa

Have you ever argued upon something you had absolutely no idea about and later had your point proved right? Its a nice feeling getting your (logically derived) point across and then proving it even though you hardly knew anything about the topic of discussion when it actually took place...no? [- no don’t answer just now! you'll know why I’m saying this after you've read the whole post.]

In school we had loads of fun. And not just loads. Loads and loads and loads and load and.... you get the idea, right?

So…yes. We had loads of fun. We enjoyed so much that I was totally convinced that that was the most fun anyone could ever have. And all this fun I 'blame' on the school and the friends I was with. No other place would have been as heavenly and no other friends as much fun. It was bliss!! Total unadulterated bliss!

Sometimes, in between this bliss, came people who said college life would be even more fun. This is what I argued against. "College life?? Fun?? without this school and these friends?? Nah, I don't believe you" – and this was when they gave a knowing smile and said: "You'll know when you go to college." – and this was where I would argue even more adamantly, with the same points, give up, and then start dreading the school leaving day.

The day finally came. And much as we didn’t want to, we were forced to pass-out…

Then there was a new school … and I passed out …both, in shock and, eventually, from the school. This school will require another post. Another time.

…and then I came to college. People would ask me “Which college?” – and I'd tell them – and they’d go – “Oooh !!” – If only they knew … I go “oooooh” to convey a very different emotion every day at 7a.m. when I realize I have to attend college again! Boring. (and an adverb for added emphasis) Terribly boring.

There are people in this college who call themselves “friends”. Outside, I smile a trying-to-approve smile, and nod... Inside, I’m mostly rolling on the floor, laughing… and at other times wishing they knew friendship as I know it – be rid of their wrong notion once and for all, and not embarrass themselves.

So we come back to my first point again. It’s a nice feeling when you are later proved right…no? NO ! – Not when your point is as depressing as mine.

The only satisfaction that I now have is that I can safely use my favorite sentence of four words. “I AM ALWAYS RIGHT”



PS: The good thing(s) about college will come in another post.
