'Garmi ki chuttiyan'...a grin appeared my face everytime someone mentioned those three words. I could not help thinking about the fun I will have when all my cousins come home for vacations, the games we will play, the places we will visit. The school reopening date always seemed to near at greater speed with each passing day and the vacations were never enough.
Ten years later, I have roughly the same length of time entirely at my dispense. Gourav, a friend from those times, mockingly said, "Garmi ki chutti me ghar aaya hai Raja beta?" I would have called this break exactly that had it been anywhere close to those, but it is not. I long for those college days when I had to study for hours at a stretch, sleep for lectures at a stretch or just go lie down at the university cricket ground till the night perms allow me to. I am fed up of swimming, tv, gym...everything for that matter.What sounded like a luxurious life few weeks back has now become an insufferable torment I can blame nobody for. After trying almost anythin I can manage to do at home, I finally found a solution, 'The internet', this wonderful creation of the human race turned out to be my last resort.
The idea of blogging has been wandering inside my head for more than a year now, but for some reason I've never tried it. A friend suggested me to try it, but for some reason I never did. A copy of HT brought 'the blogging fever' to my notice a few weeks back. It said celebrities like Amitabh Bachchan and Amir Khan have started their blogs and are blogging tirelessly. Last night, I googled AB's blogs and went through some of them and 18 hours later I'm writing my first blog. I don't know if the emptiness of my day forced me, reading blogs from my friends inspired me or my likeness for Amitabh has brought me here. Well...now that I am here, I hope this will be a delightful experience for me and my readers.
Love
Raj
