Think of me as A-leash in Wonderland.
Cool evening breeze flowing into the room. Ozzy's "Goodbye to Romance" playing in the background... Sigh! how I love that song. Then the electricity does a number on me. So a circumstancial step into the balcony leads me to this:
First thought: God has photoshopped the sky. Second thought : Shut up, you silly girl... if you were meant to understand it, you would have... just submit to this. So I stand here, humbled and defeated. If there was a heaven this is it, isnt it? No ords to describe it. No ode to immortalise it. The music is here and it is now... see it, hear it, feel it.....cut to Scene Two.
Scene Two:
Life at hell is , well, hellish. No sleep AT ALL last night, for some odd reason. Felt the pinch in the first class - economics. A little sad about that, because I happen to like it. Accounting is, another story, though. But the Professor is "inspiring" enough to keep us awake. The others classes, well, "happened". So can I sleep now, thank you very much? Oh no, sweetheart, you have got to wake up to give a five minute quiz. Now who sung that song, "There aint no justice in the world..."? Real smart guy, he was.
Decided to stick to my room for the rest of the day(quite unlike me, the gregarious soul that I am). My faith in the cosmos was almost re-estabished when a caring next door mate brought food from the mess without being asked. Ah, where would we be without friends. And then the sky... and somehow, all is right with the world... now what was that song again?

A code of honour i learnt from you :)
Some weird affect with the clouds on the horizon... thank god the light went, or i would have missed it.
Sometimes you need to employ suspension of disbelief to truth too :D The skies always play their tricks :)
And classes, I don't have the right to comment on topics out of my domain.
Awesome work. The pics are simply beautiful. never knew, even Lucknow could provide such beauty.
Life is Hell everywhere. But whatever, I like the pressure, the sleeplessness. It gives me a sense that I am working to the best of my abilities. However, indeed, I feel disgusted on days when I feel that I have gotten into a rot and with all this academic load, the little ingenuity and creativity that was left in me would also be taken away from me. But still, I am enjoying this experience.
ps: it is 2:30 AM and looks like it is going to be a night out due to a presentation that we have tomorrow ( i mean today )
Anyway, good luck.
Awesome... I never knew such beauty existed in our campus... err...I am talking about the pics.
