Insomnia

   Oasis'10 just got over. It is the one chance in a year where I get to blow 500 bucks(And mind you, that's frugal) in four days and not feel guilty. It is the time for the girls to bring out the short skirts, time to get local anesthesia below the ass to ignore the cold and time for head banging. Its also time for me to become a walking billboard for my blue blooded institution... Didn't attend many events though... Just Rocktaves(Which was a bit sleepy but fun in the end), the Bhayanak Maut concert(Which was THE Shit) and the Motherjane one too(Which was proper fun)... Vishal and Shekhar were awesome too...
    Life is almost back to normal now. My biological alarm had to adjust a bit, wake me up at 8 and crap by 8:30..  Just attended a class and was quite surprised to all see the profs pretending that they had been to put to temporary sleep for four days and nothing at all had happened. Don't think they would want to waste 10 minutes asking how Oasis was, and enduring the ensuing  roar... Megalite.
   One thing I realized in college is that people are identified by either their department or club or both. A typical conversation goes like this:
 Achyuth: Hey, where you coming from?
        Me: Surya Raman's room. Had to get some stuff for him..
 Achyuth: Surya Raman who?
        Me: Backstage...
 Achyuth: Oh... (Grins)    
     People love to form opinions and preconceived notions  about a person based on his department or club. I'm supposed to be a ghot because I'm in Raag(Which is as far away from the truth as Betelgeuse) and a boozer 'cos I'm in ARBITs(Which again mom, is not true..)  What crap man...
 
   I haven't slept well for the past few days... Just been lazing around, tossing and turning in my bed(Insomnia is not not sleeping.. Insomnia is trying to do an all nighter, chucking it and trying to sleep, and not being able to because you slept in the afternoon  because you had decided to do an all nighter...)
   I have also realized that hygiene, healthcare and personal wellbeing gets murdered and thrown out of the window once you start college... Haven't eaten a single fruit, haven't cut my nails, haven't read ANY books since I came here... The only good thing is that I have managed to take bath everyday(Which is quite an achievement besides being a teetotaler and a non-smoker)
   Man, this blog is boooring... Will come up with something better next time...
