Breaking Dawn

First point first!
In no way does the title refer to the Twilight book!
I was never into too much of fantasy...
And I've lost whatever fascination I had with Vampires ever since I saw 'RPatz'(as a friend of mine affectionately calls him) posing as one in the movie series!

Now then...we all know what today is...
Come on... if you're an Indian and you don't have a clue as to what I am talking about, there's something seriously wrong with you!
I don't mean to get aggressive or anything... but when you have loads of college assignments to complete, your mood is not going to be very uplifting!
Am I the only one who finds this ironical in context of today?!

Before going any further let me wish everyone a Very Happy Independence Day!:)
Ok... its been an 'active' day today... if thats the word I want to use!
Woke up at 8am in the morning, this may seem like a normal thing but well, not for me...
The last time I had seen the sun rise was at Tiger Hill near Darjeeling five years ago!
In fact twice within the past year I have woken up to find myself staring at the aura of brilliant reddish sky, only to find that actually the sun was setting down!
My average on a holiday would be somewhere between 11am and noon.

Anyway today was special, because we had the Flag Hoisting Ceremony at our building terrace!
Also there were free sweets on offer... who would miss out on that!
Hey, that wasn't the driving motive or anything... don't get me wrong... I love my country... and I would like to believe that almost everyone does so!
Also we had the inauguration to the our para club Dum Dum Park Bharat Chakra's Durga Pujo preparation (actually the pandal builing)... too bad I wasn't there to witness it.
In the evening we went up to the terrace to play cricket... but as usual it turned into more of a chatting session, not that I'm complaining!
We started off with how a certain junior friend of ours finally mustered up the courage to go up and talk to girls(I'm keeping the names off the charts for now).
Then we passed through things like how Sonam Kapoor looks more like a doll than anything else!
And finally ended off with ghost stories about Jadavpur University and planchette!
We are seriously contemplating the last one though!
Letting a ghost possess you doesn't seem like a bad idea, does it?!:D
But it'll probably end up being more funny than scary... even if we manage to pull off something!
