Weird Dreams!! :)

Dreams are interestingly funny!!! I'm a firm believer that "dreams have meanings" but somehow some dreams just don't make any sense and left you feel perplexed.. This is what i saw a few days (nights) back and m sure it'll make you laugh until your stomach hurts! Here it goes:

I was back home from IIT in some vacations and I see that there was a party going on in my house. This house was bigger than my actual house and was much darker. Anyways, then what happened was, my dad asked for everyone's attention. And asked my two elder brothers and their wives to come on the stage(I actually have one bro and don't know when was this imaginary brother and his wife were born!).. then he called me and also a girl who's slightly chinky looking, short height, wearing a knee length skirt and has a very child-like face. To my extreme shock, my dad announced her as my fiancee!! Couldn't react at all! Apparently, the girl was doing an MBA in mumbai somewhere and we knew each other somehow.

I took my parents to another room and told them things like- How cud you do this with out asking me? I don't even know her properly.. She looks so immature and childish etc etc.. and told them that I'm calling it off and before announcing that to public, I'll talk to "my fiancee".. So i went upstairs with her who was, apparently, very happy.. Broke the sad news, shattering her moment and before she could cry, I was back in my conscious world!!

Weird! :D

Blogging...

This is my first attempt to write a blog, for that matter, anything that can be read by other people. The thought of starting my own blog has crossed my mind n number of times in the last one and half years but I just couldn't do it. The reason being I don't think writing is my cup of tea! At one point in my school time, I started writing a Diary (as everyone does in his/her life, I guess) and wrote 3-4 posts. But whenever I used to pick it up for penning down my new experiences, I used to spent some time going through my older posts and used to find them so stupid that I used to tear off those pages! :) This happened for 5-6 posts and one fine day, I tore all the ones that were left and stopped writing!

But over the years I realized that we always find our past thoughts and ways we used to see things as terribly childish and nonsensical. and we often wonder, "Was that me? I used to think like that!! Oh My Gawd!" And we laugh over them.. One very common example is our slam-books!! Each and everything that you had once written (thinking that it sounds really good) makes you laugh like anything. "My ambition is- to shine like a star in the sky!" As my school friends say (reading these kinda statements now), "isko maar do.. iski ye iccha to hum poori kar dete hain" :D

But the same cycle continues as we grow older and older. And we completely forget what we were like ten years back! Aquila had once pointed out that reading her diary gives her immense happiness seeing how much she has grown (actually) over the years.

So, I'm starting my blog to overcome my inhibitions to write and the embarrassment of others making fun of it. More importantly, to discover myself. Hopefully, I'll be strong enough not to delete the blog after a few days and continue sharing my life with you and myself.

Thanks Alok, Aquila, Shivam and Himani for putting the thought of starting a blog sometime last year!! I take time to convert a thought into action!! :)
