Retrospection of first 21 years of my life... Part II

Contd. from Part I ...

Lovelife was never kickstarted though I kept applying oil to the wearyteary parts of love engine. Though I took a couple of valiant efforts, and a couple of generous invitation fell on my side but I never got my mind into it. This is one area where I cannot afford to compromise. The wait may be painstaking but the reward is worth its value.As I have already stated somewhere that love is a monotonically decreasing function of time, so longer you wait, dimmer your chances are!! So the idea is simple, girls are welcome!

Academics, I could have scored a lot more than what I've got provided I had studied. But with my restless mind, I just cannot concentrate on one thing.But still I am deeply satisfied with my performance throughout my life.I have lived my life in shambles, totally disorganized in a state of anarchy and chaos. I keep my room unclean( kviv, dont comment) and there's no schedule in my life. I have heard of something called time management but never applied. Needless to say, I would like to amend this thing.

What do I expect from next 21 years of my life, assuming I'm alive and sane to celebrate my 42nd birthday?
* Do not repeat the mistakes that I have committed, half the problems will go away.
* Speak when necessary.It's good to value your words, but dumbness is not an invaluable trait.
* Dare to take risks, and dare to lose. But learn by experience.
* Don't live a sedentary life.
* Many more, time will come, not everything can be planned.

Retrospections are painstaking. You should never do that.

Hey, except for the table, the room isn't that unclean after all.

Btw, ur popularity in the batch indeed has a reason: you are respectable.

And abt fair sex, I always thought u were quite comfortable befriending them, even some very unknown ones! Am I right?

Smartalec said...

and don't worry! we made sure mousy had a grand start to his b'day:D!

Somehow school friends , acquaintances infact even foes carve a niche for themselves in my heart!!
My school life was complete opposite to yours. It was all about friends , freaking out , sleepovers - after school and rehearsals , events et al during school hours. I was forever on official bunk [ which means you get the attendance coz u r representing school sumwhere or are working fr sum school event despite the fact you dont attend classes]
I had dis craze fr the top girl / first in class badges hence did pull off acads quite well :P thanks to my frens who attended classes and passed on their notes to me :)

I shud write a separate blog on my school days rather than writing one here ;)

As of love life - try and try till you find the right match :D

and that is indeed sum hi funda retrospection...21 does seem to be the coming of age year!

BTW, now guys are marriageable at 18 even ;-)
