Does anyone have a nice time in school?
Well, actually that’s not quite the right question… but I’m not sure what IS! I’m reading through my trip log from this school trek we took to Kugti pass – had this seriously bright (*eye roll*) idea of typing it out so that I have a permanent account of it, and it’s really, really depressing!!!!
This was in 2001, and I had completely forgotten what an insecure and thin-skinned individual I used to be. Hee hee hee… or maybe I’d just forgotten exactly how horrible a time I had in school. Kids are really mean! In fact, I think people are just plain mean.
And I would like to take a moment here to say thank you R and A for being there :) You guys are two of the main reasons why my last years in school were not absolutely horrible. Seriously! But of course, one of the major reasons is that a whole bunch of the really nasty ones passed out of college (and then, from all accounts, attempted to find, and use, every means possible to ‘pass out’ for real! He he he… sorry. Obvious. But I really had to say that. Revenge you know…)
But truly, this account is quite horrible. I would feel really bad if I watched a movie and saw the protagonist getting half the nasty treatment I faced. But looks like I turned out fine :D I hope… In fact, I have this theory that kids who have the worst time in school – on an average, do much better later in life.
Being picked on constantly does one of two things, either u turn out a real wimp ( which seems to be rare, it’s usually the ‘populars’ who are the weakest personalities) or you pick up the whole ‘I’ll show them!” syndrome. I definitely find that the majority of really successful and hard working kids I know, had an awful time in school.
[hmmm... okie, that post was actually written about two nights ago. dint have any net. stupid cable company... gtg now.]

Weird friends
Maybe that’s a little inaccurate… acquaintances then.
I have weird acquaintances! He he… not that that sentence sounds exactly normal!
Anyway.
This last week has been fairly strange. First, college has started. But not really. We have no faculty, or course work … or ANYTHING! So basically,
we were told that we might as well only start coming from the 29th. Which is when the new kiddies start.
Other then that. These guys from Mtv showed up at college the other day. They have this youth programme where they have a topic and kids from specific colleges in Blr, Bbay and Delhi discuss it. Supposed to be giving us a ‘voice’, but since they discuss totally bogus stuff, and don’t actually do anything… I think it’s a BIG waste of time! But one of my daft friends put my name on the list and I got short listed. Augh.
So now I have to go. The shoot is on the 24th, and they’ll air it 2 weeks later. Guess it may be interesting from a purely technical standpoint. One can hope… :)
On a more interesting front! I took my first piano class this week!! :D the kid, Shyna, is the cutest little thing. Only four… but she wants to learn. Which is good. I think it’ll be fun to teach her! I need to go and get some stick on stars and things. At her age I’m really going to have to work to keep her interested. Good fun :)
Half an hour on Thursdays… something to look forwards too. And the cash will be a bonus! He he he… plan to teach about four kids, already have them, but need to confirm timings and things. Don’t want more, doubt I could handle it… won’t have the time. Once college actually starts that is…
Okie… gtg to bed now. Feeling pretty exhausted. Not too well mainly. Hate this weather. Changes too often. Makes everyone ill… also I have to be in college tomorrow because the producer for that show from Mtv is probably coming to give us a briefing. Sigh… maybe if I just bunk out they wont expect me to show on the day of the shoot and so I wont have to… but I’m too much of a good girl for that. Damn it! He he… but seriously, no way would I bunk out now that I’m on that list… just not ethical. Create problems for them too… and what if I want to get a job at Mtv at some point? Not that that’s likely… but still. No sense burning bridges. Right? Right.

home again, home again
Got home Monday… which was two days ago now. Still feel weird. There’s the usual weirdness of settling back into routine, but there’s an extra weirdness coz I have nothing to do. Which is making me very bored! Seriously… I’ve gotten so used to being almost constantly busy. Or at least constantly having company… and if there wasn’t someone around I watched TV or some such.
But here. I don’t have a schedule yet! That’s what’s bugging me. I don’t know exactly what I should be doing at all times. And so the free time is getting to me… this actually usually happens when u have an extended holiday. But that’s the thing! I’ve only had a couple of days off and I’m already bored.
So I guess tomorrow I shall settle down and figure out how to spend my time for the next two weeks… till college opens.
I’m dreading the college thing a little. I think our timings are going to be seriously messed up! At least, our first day seems pretty weird. College at 11. who has college at 11!? Even on the first day! It’s just too weird. If that’s actually our timing, that means college will end at 5! Crazy rush hour traffic every day! Not a happy thought. I hope this isn’t the case… but I’m not holding my breath.
There’s also the little matter of having no faculty. I wonder if they’ve found someone yet. They better have. That damn BS (our new princi… his name is Brahm Sharma. The abbreviation is my mom’s idea… he he) isn’t screwing up my last year!
Okie…. On the happier side. Job went pretty well. I think Vijay uncle was quite happy with the way things turned out. Which is good. I was a little worried (as u all know) but I made a tiny little film. And they are planning to use it. So I got paid! Yay!!! Only 3500. but that’s not too bad for a months work. And as only an intern!!!! We’re meant to be free labour after all… anyway. I’m definitely not complaining. :D
Oh… that reminds me! I’m supposed to be putting the Sri Lanka pics up here right? Hmmm… guess I’ll have to get Apsi to mail them to me. Only have hard copies.
Also, apparently my class co-ordinator has got a couple of job offers for me! :D stuff I can do while still in college. All animation stuff!!! Yippee! And I’m also probably going to be taking piano classes for a few kids. All small babies… so I really hope I don’t completely suck at it. Which is likely… haven’t really played the piano in over a year! So bad of me… anyway. As my mom pointed out. This will be a good way to get a little cash on the side while keeping in touch with the piano myself. And considering the usual fee is 500 bucks a month for an hour a week… it seems like a pretty good idea to me. have to get back in practice first though… also I really have to see how college goes. If my timing are too weird it may not be possible. Which I have already told the people who have asked. Which is only two kids so far… not too much of a problem I should think…
Lets see… he he… sounds like these next few weeks are actually going to be quite hectic and fun! I love being busy… but only if I also get the required amount of free time and sleep of course :)
Speeking of sleep… I should probably go to bed now. So gnite!!!
