15 minutes in my head


There’s noise all around me. It’s pretty tough to concentrate on the book that I was trying to get myself engrossed into. But the disturbances (both external and internal) kept me away. The noise outside and the loud thoughts inside my head complement my insanity. But with the exams round the corner, it scares me that my present state might destroy whatever that I have worked for in the last few years.


Suddenly, my eyes fell out of the window and on the Ganges. There was this beautiful little boat with a red sail. The wind was helping it scurry across the river. It felt great thinking of the boat and its passengers. They were traveling, seeing new places and people. They were free. So I thought if the bondage of the exams, future career and every bit of responsibility could be shrugged off for once and that I could set sail like the great Ulysses………My thoughts were in an imaginative frenzy when there was a phone call…….

The guy on the other end blabbered about his preparations for the upcoming exams. Who the hell is interested in his preparations !!! He just bludgeoned every bit of fun I was having on such a sulky day. It’s very pitiful. These type of people just are the most successful people. A line from a movie crossed my mind that we are not what we dream to be as children.

There are a very few who actually live there dreams, but mostly there are people like me who would die trying to fulfill his dream.One thing that I have to say to the guy that called “#@!!%^$$!@*&##@!” You are one big ass.

All this while my thoughts got a glimpse of a sail boat with a red sail, loud noises and me cursing somebody. I just penned all these haphazard thoughts down to blog them.
