Masking reality
(ok so the post started out whiny... I didn't want that. I had planned a funny post. You know how things are, one minute you have a good idea, then you watch something depressing on TV and your mood changes...somehow few paras before ending, I got back to the post I wanted to write in the first place. Sooo...just persevere and read ahead)Everyone wears a mask. Admit it, everyone does...even you my precious readers.I am not talking about the ones you get in shops, oh no no...this is a different kind of mask...it changes your persona completely.For instance, lately when I go to college, I have a look of constant stress and tiredness. This isn't only d

Wednesday Morning Disaster
Spent last night staying up and preparing a research proposal for a report that I will debate upon for the next two months.As a result I tired to the point where the blinking of my eyes pauses for around 20-30 seconds.I do have the presentation prepared however I have no clue on what to speak about...so am continuously repeating my speech in my head, over and over and over and over because I know I have to somehow stretch 5 slides worth of information to at least 7 minutes.Finally I decide to come to college and open the door to my class room only to realize its empty. Oh no no, class isn't canceled...no one has showed up just yet. Crosschecked the time to see if I a

Teamwork sucks
It really isn't for everybody. Colleges should stop promoting it now, its damn irritating. My first year was fantastic. Lovely projects, all solo assignments... my creativity was overflowing.Ever since the second year I have been having a horrid dry spell.Why teamwork sucks?1. Credit is shared by the team. So basically, 'my' idea becomes 'our' idea, 'my' posters become 'our' posters, and 'my' grades become 'our' grades.2. When you work alone, and you screw up, you have yourself to blame...but when you are working in the team, it's always the other person's fault....Always. Na...tut tu

Tsunami in my head
I was on vacation for the past two weeks. Went to India, still there actually. My vacation ends tomorrow.A lot of things have been discovered in this trip. It was a very enlightening experience in one way, though I would also consider it a major disaster at the same time.When I left, I was upset with an issue, which caused me to remain in a mopey state of mind right until the stewardess brought me some bloody mary. God help me I love a bloody mary on an airplane.Things were finally looking up until the plane landed.I didn't mind the almost 20 minute walk of that horribly long corridor from the plane to the baggage area. I was amused how the doctors

Going back home
College submissions done, with great difficulty. Bags are almost packed, just some last minute shopping to be done.Am almost ready for my vacation. Though I shall be staying in India for around 15 days, its not really much of a vacation for me this time.I have the next semester's time table, and if I thought this sem was a pain, the next one is going to give me a stroke.Five subjects... all with gigantic projects, all mostly teamwork(damnit!) related, and every single one of them uninteresting.Got to make an experimental video, hopefully don't have to make a 30 second animation in maya and just stick to more character modeling or maybe just doing some wal
