The IIT story...

I wrote this when I was utterly bored, during one phase of the 3 hour IIT exams couple of years ago, much to the amusement of the invigilator. I found the question paper on which this was written yesterday while scouring through my cupboard. Its a work of fiction, first and foremost(please don't sue me) and its a tad longish. Bear with me. The moonlight crept through the thin wisps of cloud, casting a pale hue on the sea below. The sound of the waves crashing on the rocks, deafening, majestic. But all this was lost to Vaibhav as he stood there on the 5 th floor attic of the main building. His body numbed by the shock and horror of his realisation. “This can’t be” he thought, “How..”. A muffled scream, a soft thud, and a huge splash. It was over. The dining hall had never before been this quiet. Shocked eyes, excited murmurings and the sound of newspapers crumbling as everyone hurriedly turned over the pages to get the full story. “Another suicide at the IIT’s”, the headlines r...

Two of a kind...

I had a corner seat to the left, three rows from the back. It was the second day of classroom training in Mysore and we were in the midst of the irritating L&D(Learning and Development) sessions. Basically, those were three days of English and communication classes that I thoroughly hated because they involved communication and people skills, both of which I lack and have no interest in acquiring.

That is how I first met Dhruva. We didn't have the longest conversation at that point, but I distinctly remember, the very next time we spoke, later in the evening, his first question was, "Baba fukish to?"

To dream a little dream...

Ambitions. Dreams. Goals. Big words, chucked at us since childhood. "Live in the present" and "Enjoy the moments" are quotes you read about in literature but never applicable to modern society as we strive to sacrifice the present to ensure the  much dreamed of "future perfect". When we were young, these dreams were fantastical, living off childhood fascinations. To be an astronaut, a maverick pilot, a top sportsman, a top-notch scientist who discovers the perfect time travelling invention and what not. There were quite a few in my class who were hell bent on making it to NASA. Needless to say, none of them even came close. Strangely, I had none. I never wanted to become any of these. Or maybe I wanted to become all of these. Either way I was too confused to have an opinion. Then we grow up. Class 10, board exams. Everyone takes it seriously. A stepping stone to the glorious dream of a future it was after all. Again, I was bored, unsure of my prioriti...
