Sometimes
Sometimes, even the workaholic Grad School pauses to catch a breath.
Sometimes, Kgp comes back to haunt you.
Haunting is not always scary.
I want to be haunted by the cool summer breeze from B-Top-East.
Sometimes, I want to stop and smell the roses.
Most of the times, they pull me back and I feel that I'm ploughing for the new gardens to come.
The quest for utopia is unending.
"The day I get into IIT, I'll be happy"
"The day I get a foreign internship, I'll be happy"
"The day I get a good app, I'll be happy"
"The day I have a paper at ISSCC, I'll be happy"
Happiness is here to stay.
Sometimes, I don't know what I'm looking for.
Most of the times, I work hard to keep those sometimes at bay.
Haunting can be scary.
Sometimes, it takes diffused yellow lampshades, stirring music, a Blogger window and 1 AM on the clock to feel like oneself back again.
I know that my rose is here to stay.
Sometimes, one rose can make a bouquet.

Lovely blog...I really liked the quest for happiness bit. The lamplight through the mist is one of my favourite night time scenes of kgp.

nice post.
some point of time you realize what will give you happiness, and then that is your utopia. you don't need happiness any further. that rose is to stay forever.
brilliant post. Especially the last line.

This line line will soon find its way to something like quotations.com, evident from the number of people who have kept it as their gtalk status message ;)

Nice blog Chintan! Its nice to hear you speak about cool breeze and roses as opposed to 141 and 142 for a change!
You can be a good writer, you just need to stop thinking about ISSCC!!
Beautiful post..
Take care.
so true...and superb lines to complement the idea
Bhaaaaiiii ....
Bole to Thomas Jefferson bola na 100 take ki baat ...
Its the pursuit of happyness that we must be allowed to cherish.
Its these 'Sometimes' that will keep you going.
