Back with a BaNg... (i hOpe)

Its great to be back... musing at random...

A lot of things have happened in the past few months... Came back from Calcutta.. fell in love in Kerala again... monsoons started... and a hectic 4th term came and went... went for a 3 day trekking trip (though we spent a good amnt of time sleeping in the tents)... Onam came and went... and finally I await the starting of yet another term tomorrow... hope it is not as action packed as the one that just got over... Hopefully I'll get time to breathe (and blog; of course!) coz I have taken only the min: credits this term... hoping to catch up on a lot of things like jogging; sleeping; blogging; movies; calling up friends; movies; books and a helluva lot more...

What prompted me to write today was the train journey from home by the Mangala express... unlike all my previous trips, this time the train was actually on time and the compartment was nearly empty... after reading a couple of articles from the latest issue of Outlook Traveller (yep, I'm an armchair traveller - BIG TIME)... I just started looking out through the window... It had started to drizzle and the landscape was all clean and green... man! Kerala is gorgeous...

That's when nostalgia hit me... about a long lost friend of mine... well, not exactly long lost coz we met sometime back.. but nonetheless long-lost... a friend who meant a whole lot than just a mere friend... we really did connect at a much deeper level... but that was "then"... what happened to all those feelings? somewhere along the way, we grew apart... now the distance is too unfathomabale to revive that old passion we had... friend, I really miss you... friend, I wish you were here with me... friend, I wish we could take all those long walks like we used to... friend, I wish we could talk for hours like we used to... friend, I wish we could play pranks like we used to... friend, how I wish you were beside me at this very moment... Oh! if only wishes would come true... if only....
