Sing a song of sixpence

So...exams once again!First serious exam in about 4 months!But that still doesn't change the fact that I'm horribly underprepared.As usual!People been tellin me about how I've changed...become more reticent...'gone into hibernation' would be more like it
Well i wouldn't blame them.Life has become so mechanical.

Tomorrow for the first time in many months I am really gonna live again.Because my dear friend is in Kolkata.Yaayy.We're gonna drink to his health and binge on Old Monk,get drunk till we can barely remain in our senses,walk like unfeterred horses in rush hour city traffic,run around in dizzy circles,bhaat bokbo,do all sorts of unsavoury stuff we'd normally not have been capable of doing,hurl choiciest of anecdotes at each other,philosophise,utter random machinations,comment on the sordid state of today's society,what they very satirically and lovingly used to refer to as 'frustrated bangali'r chaayer dokaner adda' :P

Uff those days when the four of us used to sip tea in the chaayer dokan in front of anagh's house :'( really miss them.Not to mention returnin after every exam in THE CAR and the various amusing incidents that used to follow :D.With vintage Led Zep playin in the background,we're going to raise the roof.The sky's the limit.We're gonna act crazy.No make that crazier.Even more crazy.In fact layer upon layer of pure,unadulterated C.R.A.Z.Y would be insufficient to describe 'that' crazy elation we feel when we are re-united with our best buds from school after so many months.It's gonna be a day to remember.To Ayon Basu.To his health.To our camraderie.To our friendship.To our steadfast loyalty for each other.Is Anagh listening?Not to mention all the resta them.Hey fellas!!!Phew!Been a long time coming!

As for the exams...well I hope that even the 10th turns out to be as memorable as tomorrow!In a horrible state as far as I am concerned.As i write this,I am still left with 3 topics in consumer behaviour,NIA,the entire mathecon portion.But that's not to mention the 'brainstorming session' we're gonna have after the exam[:P].When I first joined Presidency I was like...damn...where's my kind of crowd?It felt so very frustrating to be like a rank outsider amidst everyone.

But after i got to know everyone in my batch a lot better I've made great friends with each and everyone of them.I've learnt not to be overtly critical and make adjustments when necessary.Especially the boys...really turned out to be my type...[soumya's 'incentives' for bringin me from my home to coll st which almost always used to culminate in us making a perilous journey to the rooftop :P]never could've asked for better 'foodies'[:P] as classmates than sayan and soumya and the rest of them really!cheers!toast!
Apart from that I've been feeling a drastic need to restructure my life and come out of this college cocoon I'd enveloped myself in...start paying attention to my old acquaintances and friends and learning the essence of life all over again.
Let's see what the murky future holds in store for me :)

''I'm the king of the castle
You're the dirty rascal
Crash into me
Lyin swimmin in your seas and your oceans

I can feel the wave crash into me
I will be your dixie chicken, if you'll be my Tennessee lamb
we can walk together down in Dixieland
Yes, I see the waves
Come and crash into me.
See the waves come and crash into me.
Crash into me"
