Pearls of Wisdom


its is funny how soon time flies. three years were spent wondering when college would get over. now it is. and well.......we wish we were still in the 'hell hole'! new beginnings for all of us friends. full of uncertainty, fear, and misgivings. sometimes i think i take the title of 'self -destructive-rebel' a bit too seriously.the need to do 'my' thing all the time is a bit over whelming. and if i dont do it my way it gnaws at my being. to do my thing to prove everyone else wrong. itis hard work. but now when i look back at it, immature! is the only word that comes to mind.
but then again the whole point of college seems to be making your friends, learning from your mistakes, and getting your degree.

Things I Have Learn't From College:



  1. take nothing at face value- but only time and experience can teach these.
  2. work hard. play harder. the benefits are waaayyy better.
  3. be true to yourself.
  4. teachers don't know everything. in some cases they know nothing.
  5. friends are your only refuge.
  6. read. write. it helps lessen the angst!! ;)
  7. walk. it keeps you in shape. and the 'local' sights and scenery are awesome!
  8. siblings aren't all that bad. they provide entertainment.
  9. when your parents donot trust you there is no guilt when you do break it.
  10. trust is fragile. so be careful!!!
  11. never start a fight. but sure as hell complete one (if necessary).
  12. its is never 'home sweet home'.
  13. dont judge. 'free your mind and the rest will follow'
  14. distance makes the heart and the bonds grow stronger.
  15. sleep. it helps you deal with reality.

bye........

Bali,

had come by your blog earlier- But Im assuming by now you know my sense of skewed time and such.

Good post. I couldn't agree more... and it was good to read it from you. Dunno. Something about credibility for thoughts.

Your mail sits in my inbox. It will soon be attended.

Oh...and aye. Updates at the blog(s) are..well... up.

Will come back soon.

6.--> Very True.
9."when your parents donot trust you there is no guilt when you do break it."
If I had one, my number 9 would be:-
When your boyfriend doesnt trust you (even when you just speak to his friends), going ahead and SLEEPING with EACH ONE of them is also no guilt.(Its wld make you jst a lil slutty tho')

P.S:- Excuse the profanity.
