Makeover

well, i m blogging again. this is what happened when the freshers came in. a new batch, and i dont know anyone from my group. apparently there are only 35 students in the entire life science where we are 35-40 in each group of life science. God save life science!

the only fresher i know is manasa my neighbour and my junior in school. We meet in the assembly and she introduces me to her friends very happily- "hey this is Amritha our senior. i ve told u na, she sings very well". poor girl my reaction to that before she properly completed that sentence was: "what?! me? sing? when? oh yes! i used to sing! man i forgot that. hey u know what i did sing once upon a time. thanks for reminding me." Now whats the mistake? i dint realise i reacted to this right in front of her friends. i m really sorry for embarassing her like that. but that did help. it put me into another retrospection of how i changed a lot in life. so here are a few things that i ve actually forgotten.

1 singing

2 sketching

3playing the veena (yes i thought i m that old amritha who knew to play it well and i screwed up in the stage in front of 100s of folks, and i wont forgive myself for that. now the college might not let me play any instrument without an audtion for sure).

4enjoy life well (this actually summarizes most of the things)

5that i knew very well to manaage an aquarium (yeah when i was less than 5 years, i could name all the fishes in the aquarium. how this happened i shall tell in the next post.)

6that i am actually capable of cycling continuously 12 kms crossing two flyovers. (i ve done this to surprise my relatives, who stay almost in the city outskirts :P)

7 poem writing skills ( i would have easily written about 50 poems in the time between class 6 to class 8. after a series of demoralising and demotivation, i stopped it in class 8, and threw away the collection. i think i rather destroyed it.)

8 i dont further remember what i knew

so seeing all that i ve missed out in life, and considering that i m not old enough to retire from living a good life that i am actually capable of, i ve decided to go for a makeover.

now, my idea of a makeover is not just change in looks. although change in looks is also going to take place, and i have no idea how successful i am going to be in this particular region.

it takes a spark for people to realise things, and this time i m glad mani induced that in me, although there has been some other person who brought about some other spark, that i m doing different things (its a big story, shall tell in the coming posts), now it is high time i live up to what i m born for.
