The so-called pubic gathering

We have gathered again today, just the way we are supposed to be present, everyday. We wait for someone to come and start withth main thing. What are we supposed to do once we are here? We know the answer but having no one to stand on our head to remind us and grill us , we don't usually do th self-directed stuff. It's just too hot outside to go and do something just for self learning ? A really wrong idea indeed but I truly can't gather the courage to go out.

It's Thursday today, the department is busy with the new admissions. Most probably they won't be coming in today.

And here we are, sitting in the seminar room, the room at the end of the ward where the usual teaching sessions take place . It's about 28 of us sitting  in a room which has empty wheel chairs and other store room stuff.  Some are discussing the academic stuff. Heck, it's scary to acknowledge the amout of knowledge I'll need to gather within the time we have before our exams. Others are just scrolling their phones just out of borerom or avoiding the physical human contact. What would we talk anyway ?  Some are busy with their movies and games online , trying to make the best of this time whereas, for the rest of the day would be spent studying in the reading room. 

I don't belong to any of these field of passing the time anyway. All I can do is think and plan, what next!?

Escaping, but from whom?

It's a quite place which I always claimed will make me most productive.  And now that I am here, I occasionally get lost in my thoughts, which is basically about all the issues I am surrounded with. While at home,  I was constantly in search of emptiness, a room where no one ones what am I doing, judge whether what I am doing would actully help me make my future better, to validate the feelings I express. I used to just sleep or try to study in a room locked from inside where most of the time was spent crying till I am too exhausted to do nothing more than needed, sorting what went wrong and hiding from everyone around. I have been there before and after attempts of moving on, the things are back again , right in front of me. Everytime it happens, it leave a hollowness inside which doesn't really fills up. It gets deeper, progressively. I have been shrinking out socially and hasn't been a serious bother since the ones I have to keep with me, are with me.  The previous tim...

That's the way I work!

 I exhaled the breath that was captured inside me, realizing that the person didn't intend to convey the news to me yet. I'll get my news.  I don't know how long that's going to take but my mind is beginning to take its troll. I just couldn't wait anymore!  Was the news even meant for me? I didn't know. All I knew was , being patient is the only option to patient.  I have been acting impulsively. Once I decide I want to finish off something, I'll do it anyway, without giving it a second thought. Once convinced, concider it's done. The whole efforts, are therefor, put into the Convincing process. It's freaking hard to convince me to do something. My friends often say, why do you think so much? Why are you so afraid of taking actions ? I don't think I am afraid or I take too much time deciding. It's just, i don't have an explanation for this. If my Gut feeling says I should do it, I'll do it or otherwise.  Following my own philosophies,...
  I can stare at the sky and think about literally everything that’s there, be it connecting the dots of my past happenings that got me to the stage I am. While thinking about it, I feel as if I am narrating my favorite experiences to my long-gone friend. I jump from one experience to another, losing the chain of the story and eventually getting back from where I started. I think about the most practical things I can see in my future and what I’ll need to do for it. At times, I land up making alternate possibilities of how things might have turned out if I had made choices a little different from what I actually did. Sometimes, when I don’t want to think about anything in particular, I get my earphones and enjoy the music and the peace in me with the quiet of the night. Without anything to listen, my head will always be filled with something or the other. So yeah, that works sometimes. I see aeroplanes occasionally. They lit me up. Memories. Dreams. Possibilities. In these da...
