Hypocrites and the degeneration of mankind

Behold the turtle, He only makes progress when he sticks his neck out - James Bryant Conant

The sea was rough today. The waves were crashing onto children and their sandcastles, dogs with their play items, and not forgetting the tiny crabs and sea shells...

With it arrived the turtle.

The massive creature crept across the beach waddling through mounds of sand which were mahoosive obstacles for this tired creature. After a great struggle, he gave up. He gave up, and spread himself amongst the rubble on the beach.

Crows were circling around it, dogs were barking and trying to attack, but not a sign of movement from this glorious creature.

I watched it all from afar.

I felt proud to have seen this majestic being relaxing on the beach and not bothered by anything or anyone. I felt ashamed of how I am moved by what others think about me or what others do to intimidate me...and with this thought I approached it..

That was when I realized.

It was dying.
It couldn't be strained anymore. Eyes were full of pain and sides streaked with blood. This was the moment where it all ended.. I couldn't bear to watch. It was too painful for me to see a turtle who could to live for hundreds of years more was at its deathbed right in front of me.

A tear ran down my cheek.

And with that it had its last breath. It was over, nothing more could be done here.
The wounds were already infected and the stench was attracting the loathsome houseflies.

I turned around and faced the ocean

That was when I heard the men speak. "Ikmanata muge katta gaththa nung hari" (Quick, let's get its shell) Why is everything in this world tainted with greed? Every moment is exploited and is regarded as an opportunity? Why not let the turtle be? Let it decay into the ocean where it was born and raised...Let it once again be a part of the circle of life? But no, cruelty in mankind would make them rip the creature apart, use the flesh as meat and shell as decorations.

What evil did that turtle do to deserve such a fate? Has it ever harmed any one of us? This is the irony of life as they call it. The best part is how we are able to live with it all and walk away as if nothing is erroneous.

I am the hypocrite who passed those men and walked towards to horizon.

Amore? Yep!!!

Just being a wee bit creative :]

Life is a rollercoaster...just gotta ride it! (seriously???)

Wut a cliche huh????? It's such a hackneyed phrase (especially because Mr Keating had a song with this phrase in his lyrics as well as the title) that ppl are like...."Hey! Enough with that already!!!" But I'm a sorta person who realizes that these simple phrases mean a lot at times...

Since I'm right after my A/Ls and since I MAGNIFICENTLY completed them by writing BRILLIANT answers (NOTE THE SARCASM) it was a period of mixed emotions for me... I was happy and excited because the sh*t was over and sad about the fact that I screwed it up and was confused about my future..... So, the ppl in my household was pretty much suffering due to my mood swings... :( Later I decided to start doing CIM. (I dnt know why the hell I wanted to do it...probably bcuz it was the only thing I liked out of the options I had which allowed me to start with O/L results and was comparatively cheap..) And now I'm continuing going for classes for CIM (thank god its part time and only takes up my weekend.... AAAAAAAGGGGGHHHHHH!!!!!!!) See..... I'm happy that Its on weekends and sad that I cnt even go partying on weekends.... *SIGH. Oh well..back to the topic, After going for CIM classes and spending the rest of my week basking in boredom (hmm...I'm using Alliteration... lol) I decided to do someting worthwhile with my time. So I eventually posted my C.V to the UN (for those who don't know...The United Nations!! Seriously, some ppl were like what's UN? Outta jokes..!!! :S) Anywez, guess what? They chose me to be an intern!!!! I don't know for what wacky reason they chose me...but they DID! That was it! My life was recovering rapidly after it took a turn for the worse during A/Ls... It had alwez been my dream to be working at the UN and there it was....right in front of me. (I even went in a big UN vehicle....Yaaaahoooooo!!!) I knw I knw....I'm being very juvenile.....but I'm sure everyone has a childlike qualities inside of us...... :) And right after my first day at work, when thaththi came to pick me up... guess what was being played on the radio???? Life is a rolercoaster- by Ronan Keating. Then it actually got me thinking.... Life IS INDEED a huge rolercoaster.... probably the tallest, longest, freakiest ride ever!!!! But it still has its ups and downs..... U just have to ride it.... and no matter how bad or how good the ride was, at the end of it......u feel thrilled about the fact that you actually had the guts to ride it and you feel like riding it again just for the heck of it.... So, to all those out there, who are pretty much confused about life and depressed about it.... believe me, Life ain't that bad!!! There's alwez the downs which are usually followed by the Ups, and even if you feel like jumping off the rolercoaster...U simply cannot! Thus, we keep riding, hoping to god that you will come out of the coaster in one piece.... Compare your life to a rolercoaster and you will be amazed at how many similarities they both have. So, my friends and foes..... keep riding the rolercoaster of life and try to create an ending where you will be thrilled and happy about the ride and thus want to ride it again!!! Cheers! And may the triple gem bless you alwez!

Finally....the end of a suffocating period!!!

I finally finished doing it! (I meant my A/Ls you sickos...) lolz! Now I'm kind of bored and all, without it....lolzzzz!! I know, I know, WEIRD ha? (BTW, A/Ls SUCKED BIG TIME!!!) Yes....but life goes on now! Yaaaaaaaay! I don't even mind goin back to the same old routine...(Refer to "LIFE FALLS INTO RUTS OF ROUTINE" post) But now that I'm kind of jobless, maybe I could make some slight adjustments in my routine... (Come to think of it....I'm not jobless cuz I've got loads of stuff planned on my Agenda) But, I'm sure I wont get half of that done, cuz even after my O/Ls I planned soooo much but couldn't even complete half of those which were "PLANNED" :( *SIGH

Anywez, other than my crappy A/Ls and my stupid plans...I've realized that life ain't that bad... As long as you go with the flow, things just fall into its right place. I know this sounds weird but, seriously... GO WITH THE FLOW... If you succeed Good for you, if you fail Try Again!!! Thats the way it works! Well...right now fellow bloggers and everyone that's reading my posts... I'm NOT in the mood to write....but in the mood to PARTAY and go wiiiild! Yaaaaay! So, will bounce off now! Till we meet again....CHEERS!!!

Life falls into ruts of routine.....

Well........ The Lit paper is finally over. Unfortunately it was too good to be true.....in other words it was a deceptive, seemingly easy paper.... *SIGH.. Oh well...Life goes on...
I've also finished my 1st and 2nd Geography Papers.........
Unfortunately we have a 3rd as well.... *SIGH (again)
I've gone through my Narayan again....(You know what? I've got really attached to that Narayan Book now....I used to hate it in the beginning with all the self-realization crap etc etc..... but now its like WHOA!):D Anyway...moving on....I'm gonna qoute from Narayan AGAIN! "Life falls into ruts of routine" Doesnt this phrase remind you of anything????? Well...it did to me...And the first thing I remembered was...MY LIFE! lolzz! No...Outta jokes! During these few weeks it's been like getting up in the morning, brushing my teeth, having a wash, having breakfast, lamenting about what I screwed up in my last A/L paper and then going back to studying, fudging around, resuming the study etc etc etc. *ho hum (I'm really over using this word aren't I? Believe it or not,I got used to it since I watched Ernie and Bert on Sesami Street....LOL!!! Outta jokes)
So, as Narayan says.....Life does fall into ruts of routine. And sometimes it can frustrate you a hell of a lot!

Today after exams....thaththi came to pick me up... Then he was like...So? how were the papers? I replied with a sigh hoping that he would get the hint....BUT NO!!! He then says.. 2 A's already huh? WOW! Just then....Steam blew out my ears and nose...I was FURIOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AAAAGGGGHHHHH!!! Wanted to tear up the whole Earth into millions and millions of tiny (mind you.. very tiny) pieces!!! After I bit my own hand for a while (i know its dumb...but that was the only thing that i had to bite...NO! I dont BITE EVERYTHING!!!) i felt much better..... Then when I came home I received bad news about one of my childhood teachers. He had passed away......That was it! I couldn't take it anymore..... After a while staying locked up in my room, I went into my bathroom with soggy, red eyes... YES! I cried. Then it felt a whole lot better! (Wonder why crying helps?....I mean Scientifically...)

Hmm.....Life falls into ruts of routine. So here I am trying to post something worth while but failing miserably! :( *SIGH! So, its Night time and according to ROUTINE it's waaay past my bed time. Too tired to break the routine and try something innovative right now..... SO Im off ta bed! Good night folks! Take Care! Zzzzzzz....................................................
