Capricorn(A Brand New Name)

Hmm this post is by all means a waste of time.It has no advice.It has no philosophy.It has no review.It has no story.In fact it's just an elaboration of a feeling.

I'm feeling very melancholic at the moment.I dont know why exactly.But I want to run away from everything,every single thing and never turn back.I want to run away to a place no one knows me and start over with a brand new name and a brand new identity.I dont want my friends.I dont want my memories.I dont want any of this.I just want sanctuary.

New Year,Old Problems

Well it's a new year and people all over the world were busy bursting crackers,singing songs,kissing each other(as in New York)and basically basking in the festivities that accompany the initiation of a new "beginning".But you know what?It's just a big,fat LIE.

It doesnt matter that a new year has started.Our problems are still the same.People are dying of cholera in Zimbabwe.Kenya still has the most ill equipped hospitals in the world. Ghana is still languisihing in the wake of it's elections.Israel is still bombing Gaza and being attacked by Hamas.400 people have died there already.

And let's come back to our own backyard. Yesterday.woohhoo new year's day what do we see?We see 3 blasts in Guwahati,India.And I certainly dont mean firecrackers.

Forget all the politics,the sorrow of the world,and this sickening philosophy.WE(CLASS XII STUDENTS) all over the country have BOARD EXAMS IN 2 MONTHS!!So what's changed?Well the only thing which has changed is the fact that the count down to the exams is decreasing every day.Except that the world is still as it was yesterday-ignorant,foolish,racist,communal,selfish,parochial and above all inhuman.

Let's not celebrate the new year for a change.Let's just think of ways of making this year better than the last.
