phases....

If we were to sit down and try to figure out our life, all that we are bound to find are a series of phases!....We, as humans undergo inevitable and constant change!...For instance the things we believed to be true and followed like a religion some five years ago have mutated so drastically that now those same things do not make sense at all!.... Think about it!...To share a personal experience to prove the same i have this example to give....five years ago i was very sure that i don't want to get into a technical field and that i will never pursue anything close to science and technology...but today here i am on the verge of completing my Engineering in computer science and waiting to join a hard core technical firm! and the funniest part is that i am not even complaining!..

Now to talk about phases.....apart from the common factor that everyone has these various phases in life the most ridiculous part is that most of us undergo the same set of stereotypical phases!....starting from the very beginning!
As children we all have had the first phase where we couldn't stay a minute away from our mothers...and then slowly came the babysitting phase where we threw countless tantrums to avoid going there and later the same continued till nursery!....sometimes i wonder how all of us thought of "stomachache" as the sole excuse for bunking school! i mean where did we learn that from!?!....o'course we all eventually did understand that there is no way out and school is the place where we get to spend our day!......

Soon after this comes the phase where we slowly detach from our folks!....suddenly friends become the center of your life!...your friends approval counts more than your parents!...and soon your parents become "uncool" and the only conversations that you have with your folks is studies and marks!...

Then comes the college phase.....We all enter college life with a lot of hope and anxeity!..We hope for a life changing experience here and we are anxious about all that is about to change!....We tend to believe that this is the real world...which is the biggest mistake we all tend to make....we see achievers in making here....we get the first taste of failure also here...We worry about things that later we are bound to laugh at!...we fight over things that mean the world to us but later they loose its significance....we fall in and out of love...some are lucky to find their ultimate soulmate here, and others learn to deal with constant heartbreak!............So here i am standing at the end of this beautiful phase and waiting to see what this life has in store for me ahead! :)

  1. Nice blog Chandni, very well written, it made for a good read. The flow was very good and so were the phases.I felt that you could have ended it better, coz I was waiting for more and then it ended abruptly. The end is good too, but you could have added more content and then the end..
    Keep blogging, keep coming up with such posts! :)

  11. Yeah, well thats 1 excuse that stays constant...no creativity needed....though calling in and saying u have lymphosarcoma or something might be innovative, its always safe to stick with the age old 'stomach ache', 'cold' or 'headache' so that the boss knows u r bluffing but is too bored to verify and catch u red handed :-)
