Blogoholic!!!!

This is one phase of student life I love and hate! I have all the time in this world but have nothing to do on hand. I don't even pursue any "hobbies" to keep me occupied during there love/hate time periods. So , I've picked up an addiction- Blog hopping. Well, I'm sure all of us bloggers do this at some point of their blogging periods , but I have started doing this soo much that I'm literally addicted to it. It sure kills a lot of time, but also leaves my fingers close to carpel tunnel syndrome.
In course of nurturing this new addiction,I've come across a good bunch of ppl with different attitudes and different writing styles. As I've always been a fan of English writing ( using known vocabulary not the biblical style which I hardly understand!! ), I find it quite interesting when ppl write everyday incidents with some dramatic effect. It showes the emotion they have attached with it , the results they expect and a little about how they see themselves. Their style not only entertains regular readers but also makes bloghoppers like me comeback for more. Dil mange more......
Also , I'm simply amazed at the variety of topics that are addressed in these blogs , my favorite ones being Scientific , Cooking , casual chats. The amount of time and patience these bloggers invest in making their blogs an interesting place to hangout is laudable.

Apart from this , everything else for the next couple of weeks will be normal...well yeah Its Vacation time next weekend , so I guess I should be excited.

But for now...Its time to say goodbye....

Relationships

"Relationships are strange things" -- This dialogue from the only episode of Sex and the City I saw till now triggered a series of thoughts in me. Yeas indeed relationships are strange in so many, undefinable, uncomprehendable ways. Best friends drift apart, ppl who never met each other but are only internet friends (thanks to the internet chat!) get so close.
Such things happened to me too...two of my best friends have moved so far , that I find it really difficult ( almost impossible) to touch them with the same chord. Those people whom I thought had the same wavelength as me surprised me with their coldness. Made me think if it was the same person. Other times , I still share a very good rapport with ppl I can call close,only that I don't have much face to face interaction with them. We must have met couple of times , but thanks to the internet,chatting was more frequent than meeting, yet we grew close. Even today we share what's happening in each other's lives with the same intimacy and the same affection towards each other.
I guess this is what is called moving on in life. Some ,like me , hang on to a string from the past , while others don't care. This leaves me wondering what makes people change. Well , I say ppl change, but a friend fiercely says " ppl don't change, only their circumstances change", whatever it may be , does it hurt to acknowledge a person from your past. Don't you want to atleast relive that point of life when we were buddies!?
Its up to ppl...

P.S.I'm remembering this poem by Alfred Tennyson called " The Brook" in which he says
' For me may come and men may go
but I go on forever."
and wondering if this is how some ppl think.
