WHEN YOU ARE 21...

I'll be 22 in a few days and much as i hate getting older i just cant help but think that Age is just a number, and i really hope so even though i am extremely worried about my hairfalls.....i am balding at my 20s...i hate it..

   But here are a few things i want to remind myself....Call it Plagiarism but im naming the title as 'When you are 21...' inspired from Taylor Swift's 'Fifteen'..
21 is one of the major 'Big Kid' crossroads in life
When you are 21, you thought you will stop thinking about guys and finally start deciding on your career. But No!!! Guys still dominate a huge part of your heart and mind....seriously!!
When you are 21, you are still asking yourself, "What next?" instead of realising, "This is it!!". Yet you realise that every stage of your life is an adventure and you know you're going to enjoy it as much as you can..

When you are 21, you thought, finally you have matured enough to control your own emotions instead of letting them over rule you...yet you find out new feelings overruling you and you're surprised you can't even keep a stupid little emotion intact.
When you are 21, someone is going to break your heart and let you know that "he's not that into you"....but the flipside is that you are also going to break someone else's heart, and its sad 'coz you dont want to but you've got to...

When you are 21, you always imagined that you will be really hardworking by then, but truth is, you are still struggling to wake up in the morning and stuck with 'last minute' assignments...
When you are 21, you are still listening to the 'teenagish' songs of Taylor Swift and living in the simple "boy-crazy small town girl' world. And when people make fun of you, you just ignore them and relish the simple pop-country music that takes you back to innocence and appreciate the value of simple things in life.

When you are 21 Facebook was so In. And no matter how hard you try to hide your obssession, you know that every single day you "Have" to log in to FB and see how many people have liked your comments, ur status updates or your photos....and sometimes you merely 'like' people's updates, just so that they can 'like' yours back. More interesting is the fact that you can stalk your crush without letting anyone know by just a click on his profile....but the Best is when he actually 'Likes' your updates...it just lights up your world...

When you are 21, you are still comfortable with your Chuck Taylor's  Converse and high heels is a complete no-no even when you really want to try it 'coz you think that it will make you more attractive...And no matter how boring and unattractive Converse looks, you always fancy that someday, someone will like you for your simple style statement and not those trashy, haute couture, ridiculous, outrageous clothing...

So the bottom line is that, when you are 21, things are still going to be the same....Its all upto you...It depends on how you react, how you act, what you choose and make a difference in the monotonous, predictable life...

                                                   And yes after 14 days, i turned 22....Sigh!

I WAS ONCE A BEAUTIFUL RIVER(the dirty river near my home)

I was once a beautiful river....
A home to a many fishes
Providence for all i gave,
Quenching every living being's thirst
And even sea food for some

Picnics were held every weekend
A lovers favourite spot then
Children loved to play with me
Threw pebbles which i enjoyed

There was once a jungle all around me
Where migratory birds from foreign places took refuge
It was indeed such splendid sight
Oh,what a proud river was I

But slowly the trees became lesser
And houses and bulidings increased...
The upper stream brought down impurities
And my beautiful fishes slowly suffocated to death

And now I am just a dirty drain for the world
Where people can dump all the garbage they want..
Plastics, bottles and every dirty matter..
With worms and bacteria all over me...

I am referred to them as the 'Nala'

But i was once a beautiful river...
And maybe i can be again.
