An ode to a medal



A silver medal,

What pseud level,

Congrats Rathore,

Indias count isnt zero,

A toast to Rathore the hero!


If you didnt like that wonderful dedication too bad.Anyways I am no poet; a limerixist maybe but no poet.

Anyways yesterday was peaceful;nothing really happened apart from a new footer ball ~*~hurrah~*~. Played it til my fingers bled.(hehe.Actually til my foot was sore,but the first line sounded better).Then what else to do but sit in DCF and do whatever.Did chat with Aruna for some time though.And Pavlos and even Ghislain.Mini chatfest.Later went back to hostel say ~1 and saw Lee and Hesh advance in the Olympics.The chest butting was back.Junta found it funny.Me too, sleisha atleast.

Grub time da.

Surreal

Magnificent are the thundering antlers of the mysterious stag Oats and barley, golden fields, invigorating too Rare be such beauty, admire, that man dares to Ere you speak, take time to read every letter, every word Lest jest sometimes makes peacocks of a macaw Even maelstrom or tempest occasionally looks lo Fruits no longer edible directly; what are they best for To eat or excite, to feel or delight?! ok “Leave! Now! “, I bellowed at the gorgeous blonde in front of me, as I forced her into a taxi. She looked at me with large innocent brown eyes, searching for some semblance of pardon, love or even hope. She had been forgiven. I think. But I had never loved her. I think. And there was no hope for her. I think. “Your mouth speaks a language unintelligible to your heart. You don’t actually want me to leave, do you?” she questioned, raising her eyebrows and smirking simultaneously. I sneered. “I don’t care for you; I never did. I just used you. Like everyone else”, I lied. She could ...

Hey, I lost a week somewhere

So I was thinking about how wonderful it would be if life was but a Hollywood film and everyone had his heroine, all beautiful,smart, in a high-paying job, ready to risk everthing for the hero (who is you) and most importantly will end up with you whatever natural disaster, unnatural disaster, animal, monster, robot, Brad Pitt, through anything basically. Yes, that would be a good life. It would be... %Reality check% In the form of a somewhat recognisable voice from behind your chair, for all the above reflection was done in the privacy and the comfort of my chair , listening to the host of songs that the Considerate One, Goda charitably sent to the Unfortunate Ones (Thota and me) after much persuation... Mentor : Umm, can you write out a mail about what all you've done in the past two weeks. Me: oh. ok. (pause) Can I mention I was installing software? Mentor : (Slightly taken aback) Please dont. okay one line maybe. Me: hmm. ok. So then I realised, I have almost finished two wee...

Goal

The ball was finally with me. I steadied myself as I looked up to see the goalpost. Half the field away. And with three defenders dieing to charge at me. I put the ball forward and thought to myself, “This is your chance. Your opportunity to prove yourself. To the world around you. To everyone. To her.” I dribbled past the first, then a swift movement past the second, faked a shot and beat the third. It was me and the goalie. One on one. What seemed like eternity then, happened in a split-second. I saw the anxious goalie unsure of whether or not to make a run out of his spot on the white line. I made up my mind, took aim and shot… Finally, his dreams were coming true. Here was a friend, who in spite of being the most talented person I have ever met, had surrendered his dreams and settled on more pragmatic ambitions. Goals that needed their dedication and diligence no doubt, but were mere asteroids in the galactic possibilities that entailed as a result of his enviable skills. Goal...
