There are times in college when I just sit back and think about my life here - how superficial it is. No, I'm not saying it is how it is for everyone. I'm saying that for me, as a student from India theres nothing deep rooted to hold onto. Theres nothing meaningful to believe in. Schedules are so perfect, hook-ups are so emotionless, life is so mechanical I feel less like a human being. It's like living in the high school hostel I was never (fortunately) allowed to go to...

With 6.5 semesters still to go, a part of me wonders will I make it? Will I adjust? Will I manage to laugh at the small talk so alien to me and come back to my room and think my day was meaningful? Or will I find myself secretly craving my home only too often?

Only time can tell

Unhinged?

"Senior" chapter.

why am I blogging this shit? I have no frickin clue. For the first time in my life I feel rejected, embarrassed but hopeful (?). I feel vulnerable. Maybe cause of the shit from last semester I feel my emotional drawer just opened... maybe cause this h-up made me feel more real than before.. i just want to remember it, the awkwardness, the fun bit

4th February. Desperate housewives and cabana boys at GayTO... fun(danced, twirled at the end of it, cure romantic style, #bloodycharmer, i acted sassy. never gonna forget "so.. have you ever h-up with a freshman before?". later took my number

4th-1th i texted after 3 days. he replied thrice before my next. asked him out same night.

10th feb: he went for pi date party

11th February. asked me about plans. Skip PDT with sis and her sis. head to GTO... said silly things like "2011 right now" #tipsystupidfoolthatiwas, we talk a lot. he randomly goes to the bathroom, come back to quick, see him lock door. HAH not that tipsy now huh? talk for 10 secs and then...he asked awk q when h-ing-up, replied awkly. continue for a few seconds then roommate tried opening door. he texted roommate said "think you got a text". convo related to going to mags, ends with me saying with my sis and her sis... can't.. end with me going back to PDT( and almost feeling chucked out, even though he dropped till GTO door)... and he's at Mags. #awkorembarrased...
