As I am racking my stubbornly unresponsive brain for a "hebby" thing to write on.....my mother is still enjoying her siesta. I wont  go to the gym today. Lets say I am a bit preoccupied. There has been a lot of things on my mind lately....ok...that was a lie....I am just being lazy. The only thing that has been on my mind lately are weird ways to kill time. I even considered trying to hide myself in the wardrobe and give my mother a scare. Well, then the logical part of me (however small that might be) kicked in and I had to consider the 5 feet 6 inches, 68kgs of my frame. I'd probably bring the whole thing down. 
      It has been almost 4 months since my Btech finals. Although I am lucky I have a brilliant job offer at hand, it is going to be an annoyingly long time before I actually join the workforce. This has to be, by far the most frustrating few months of my life. I have read ebooks that amount to a total disk space of 150 Mb( that's an awful lot of books...trust me!!!). I have drooled over Tom Welling's Clark Kent while he sashayed through Smallville. I have "facebook"ed like a maniac. I had been very serious when I told my mother that I was interested in learning how to cook..however she muttered something like "okaaj" and sent me on my way. Clearly, she remembered my previous failed "ranna" attempts and the corresponding monstrosity of the kitchen I had left behind. When everything else failed, I even Googled "how to kill time". The results were very inspiring....something about an effort to remind ourselves that we are "pinpricks on a great spinning orb lost in infinite space"....I had started laughing halfway through the article...
And to top it all, stepping out of my apartment has begun to resemble a nightmare. My ever vigilant neighbor just "happens"  to step outside at the very same time...and asks me the same question almost regularly..."joining dilo???" and although I give him the same answer everyday, it only takes my level of frustration a notch higher......

        I might take up stand up comedy...they say it came out of three things....Frustration, frustration and more Frustration.....well...looks like I am in luck!!!!
