I have a huge respect for those who bond with animals. Because its a friendship beyond beyond any gender, racial, colour bias . Its a friendship without any expectations or judgments. It is beyond language.
Its a pity that I've never shared a relationship like this. I try to, but somehow they never warm up to me.Maybe they're able to read by deep rooted inhibitions? Maybe my body language throws them off. I dont know.
"If you think dogs can't count, try putting three dog biscuits in your pocket and then giving Fido only two of them. " - Phil Pastoret
"The unreal is more powerful than the real, because nothing is as perfect as you can imagine it. Because its only intangible ideas, concepts, beliefs, fantasies that last.Stone crumbles. Wood rots. People, well, they die. But things as fragile as a thought, a dream, a legend, they can go on and on."

The Winter of My Discontent
In the end, its only me who will last. These friendships are going to crumble,one by one, bit by bit. One or two may survive, but then, I have had a history of loosing touch. Of moving on.One of my professors once said that the more friends she adds on facebook, the more lonely she feels.Right now, I can totally relate to that feeling.
Its ironic how I feel more lonely here than I ever felt during some of the solitary sojourns I had in England. I was from a different culture, different country - but I was never an outcast.
Its the same feeling I get when I feel homesick at home. As they say, home is where heart is - and mine is always wandering in far-off places.

Wanderlust
For those of you who are still wondering what Im doing in UK, and is about to ask me or flood me with questions about getting an intern abroad..( like many have already done)..
I am just holidaying..having fun..meeting different people and visiting places...trying our all kinds of food and drinks..attending christmas concerts and carol services. (All thanks to my dear sis whos here for some job project)
Has everyone forgotten that theres such a thing as 'travelling for travelling's sake?'
P.S: I have no clue about getting an intern abroad... I sent about 30-50 random mails for this purpose in my 2nd year (after some really convoluted argumentation with my conscience)..but wasnt successful.

London Dreams
So much multiculturalism, so much festivities, so much ambition, so much tradition! I am a tiny fish in an ocean of colourful creatures.
I have finally started living...

Rebirth
This was an unusual semester. Felt like first semester in many ways.Feel like I've gone (grown) a level down(up) in (im)maturity.
Maybe this is all what I needed.
wooohooo!

Existential Crises
Sometimes, in the midst of a boring non-interactive lecture, I feel like standing up and shouting "Nerds!" and walking out on the class.
But everytime ,sanity (or insanity,depending on which way you look at it) prevails and I decide that simply dozing off would be a much better and less controversial option.
