Champagne Supernova

I went home directly after college ended after a very long time. Now for me to explain why that is significant would most certainly take an immensely long time, however, to cut a long story short, it was because I was involved in a college theatre production.

For quite some time it had become a daily ritual for all of us to assemble near the auditorium and chill out for a moment or two before practice started in earnest. It was fun. Lots of fun, and now that our shows (which were greatly enjoyed by everyone) have ended, it is as though a vacuum has settled into our lives. Today, a part of our massive group had gathered in the canteen before classes started and all we could say to each other was, "You zast don't know it! Zanti paro na!"

It is weird to think that all of us won't be creating chaos en masse or hollering loudly the way we had grown so used to any more. I'd done my share of complaining about the late hours and the toll everything was taking on my health. Still, I know I'm not the only one who will miss every moment of Practice. Sigh.

On a brighter note, I've been in high spirits (no pun intended) throughout the day! It was with a bubbly phone conversation that I started my day and not even the sudden thundershower could dampen my cheerfulness. Although I have ample reason to be annoyed with most members of the male species for their horrible hobbies of randomly linking people up for the heck of it, today has been a good day.

It was great to have the professor who was taking the first class of the day congratulate us about our performance. The random hilarity that followed next can be recalled only with the widest of grins! There was this terribly obscene song I heard today regarding the gluteus maximus that I took great pleasure in singing to MMM. The poor girl tried to seek comfort from DM, but she joined in as well and we both had great fun as our singing was accompanied by rather rude pointed gestures. It was insanely hilarious!

Apart from that I believe I gave RD a fake hickey by scribbling on her arm with a purple pen. She tried very hard to remove the doodles and ended up looking as though someone had given her arm a lot of attention (evil grin). After seeing this, I'd also wanted to doodle near her neck, but sadly, she wouldn't let me. During break I ate up all the cheese sandwiches that BC (that does not stand for what you perverts think!) had brought for tiffin. And I think that I was very randomly mad throughout the day, so much, in fact that a classmate commented that she hadn't seen me in such a bright mood for a really long time. For some reason though, I can't remember all my crazy activities clearly enough.

Oh but what I do remember is gorging on street food with friends after classes ended! We had everything from aloo chaat to jhaal muri to golgappas to kulfis to multicoloured candy floss! If I'd had chocolates as well I'm sure be on a sugar high right now. In any case, the lot of us really enjoyed ourselves even though we missed going for Practice.

I didn't pay any attention in any of my classes today and was totally zoned out. But the good part was that I had lots of fun. I guess that sometimes it is alright to simply live in the moment after all!
