Exploring the heights of Pseudo Drunkenness...!

Sigh... Today, after an EXTREMELY long duration of time, I had the good fortune of getting immersed in the spirit of a college fest, one of my last at NSIT (yes, every single moment I live is "one of my last" technically, but this time its more tangible!).

Circa Resonanz 2007 - Day 2, i.e. the 7th of September...

I'd gone to college with the specific intention of attending my first ever Rain Dance, in the good company of the Spic family. After a decent amount of thass with the Mr/Ms Fresher contest, and a twilight terrace sojourn, we finally made our way to the "place to be".
The initial offerings from the DJ were disappointing to say the very least. However the music improved in a short while, and finally the lifeless forms that were the uninspired beings of us, caught sight of a delicious looking ray of light at the end of the all too proverbial tunnel. This rise in the audio inputs more than made up for the incessant and retarded beams of (bright!) light that kept flickering at our eyes. With time things improved on that front too.

Anyways, as always, the point of this post isn't whats been mentioned till now.

What followed in the rain dance can be described simply as the most beautiful cocktail of thass, music, love, camaraderie EVER made!
The things we did. From trashing the DJ when we felt he let us down, to implementing the latest most modern dance steps of the Haikutushu tribe, to ACTUALLY holding a Spic meeting (sitting, circle and all) in the midst of the melee, to thrashing Narang after declaring it to be his birthday, to doing a repeat of what Kay Kay Menon does in the "sajna ji wari wari" song of Honeymoon Travels, to ACTUALLY attempting Naad Yog, to turning into stark raving mad people, then dogs, then lions, and then finally back to the people we are now.
WHAT a ride its been...! :)


Sigh... and the gaze heavenwards in the middle of the madness, acknowledging the presence of His tender hand on the "caterpillar-turning-to-butterfly" of a night! Thanks SO much! Kandisa!

Life is beautiful... and SO very much at that!

Cheers people!

May He Bless us Everyone...

PS: More on the nuances of being pseudo-drunk later!

Flights of fantasy!

"One of the prime characteristics of human beings is not that they’re the only animals who blush, but that all of them yearn to step out of their own skin to inhabit other worlds. Fortunately, there is a piece of technology that enables them to do this. One that lets them take on new identities, explore new places and role-play with other beings. Millions have made use of it already; millions more are doing it right now.

Second Life? Nah. It’s called a book."
