Okay... so please don't remind me when the last time i penned anything( well virtually) on this blog was! The primary reason being 'Cornerpost' which has been the centre piece of my life over the past few weeks.

Okay so let's get things updated:
Jan, Feb, March... God only knows! It was one big Blur!!! Studying/Exams /Studying/Exams/Marks/Heartbreak/Headache/Slog that's all I remember... actually I don't really remember Like I said it was a phase of dullish grey, with little golden sparks... Golden sparks with blue blobs! The blobs signify anxiety... it's this thing wherein you really feel guilty for doing something( fun) when you actually are supposed to be doing something else (in my case prepare for my exams), the end result being you do neither!!!...
Okay one hurdle crossed as March '08 faded into oblivion.. the boards ... at least my say in them was history!!!

Well April, my body metabolically gets tuned into the holiday mode, but alas!... more exams came my way!
MAHE,AIPMT,CET........ and then on the 19th tone and a half hours after my CET exam my bags were packed... n I set off for Kasargod with Friends!... What fun!!!
May!!!!
This is my birthday month!!!!!!!
A'right now Cesc Fabregas, my favourite footballer/ dream guy ;)... is May born being exactly 3 years and 10 days older than I;)
So, guess what happens!... on that exact day I've got an exam.. well i dunno if I had any sort of 'Fab' luck that day but one thing the world can be rest assured is that ... Phew... Was i relieved!!!
I remember spending that entire evening gobbling down food... without having a hollow sensation in my stomach for something like the first time in ... well, months!!!
Dosas upon dosas ... and topped it of with Pizza with Ahish!!


Then the mad fury of 'HOLIDAYS' set in ... add to that minute scurrying that pending b'day shopping demands.... and tra la la .... I was 18!!!
.... all the euphoria, gifts, family, frnz, fun ....!!!
But trust me, 18 feels no different from being 17 yrs and 364 days;)
... ok, joking... but it's not much different from the other adolescent years!

The Lost Sheep Of Modern Medicine

    In the mad rush of today’s outpatient department , even as I noted the duration of his cough and enquired about the tremulousness of his hand, I could , feel the ticking hands of the clock breathing down my neck. The corridor outside my tiny room was overflowing with the sick and the needy, ebbing with tales of pain and sorrow. They sat there pleading to be heard, hoping to be understood, and above all, praying to be cured. I felt overawed by this sheer deluge that was now at my doorstep, people, families from far and wide were here, having battled long queues and prolonged waiting lists running into months just to obtain this appointment. Would the next few minutes they spend with me put a name on their suffering, or would they still be wandering in the dark corridors of ambivalence, oscillating between hope and despair.  The next few minutes, that is all I have to understand this person’s elaborate story spanning a third of his life, a story of his pain in the arm , and

ONE NIGHT AT THE DOCKS

This story was written back in 2010 as an entry for the Deccan Heral Short Story Competition. Back then I was a second year medical student, and was fascinated by diseases of the mind. Now having taken up Psychiatry as a specialization, I re read it, and I must say it's quite an accurate description( save for fictional liberty).  .................................................................................................................................................................. ‘Raman, how much exactly is eight times thirteen?’, I queried.  It was the fag end of the day, my feet were aching and I didn’t exactly pride myself with regards to my mathematical abilities. All I wanted was to tally the change, finish the cursory submission work and head home. ‘One hundred and four’, rapt came the reply. This boy had a sharp mind. Pity he didn’t put it to much use but to place bets at the bar that he’ll shortly be heading over to; to intoxicate himself to the point

This people is a Hula Hoop! I've wanted to learn how to twirl it for some time now, and i managed to get my hands on one today... But boy! It's tough! Anlil' bit of history, the Hula Hoop has been around for a while now, gaining in popularity in the early 20th Century... It's apparently named after a popular Hawaiian dance form, famous for the 'hip shaking'!  It's a popular toy with kids, and for adults an effective form of exercise(especially for all of you cribbing about that adipose walking by your side )!!! Well, I've bet I can do this, and I'm no Shakira... so well, it's a big ask! But like the YouTube video i watched said, 'patience is the key'!!! But, challenge accepted! I'm on it guys, and shall master it over the next 3 months ;)!!! Keep you posted!   HAPPY HULA HOOPING!!!
