Happy New Year 2009!!!

Hey!!!

So, it's finally approaching. 2009. According to Indian Standard Time, that's 5:20 hours more.

I know, it's REALLY hard to believe. Especially for people who aren't accustomed to change, such as me. And hard to cope with. 2008? Gone already. Last day. So it's time to make a new start. The usual words repeated as every new year comes along.

I seriously cannot tell how 2008's been. More like a complete mixed bag. Oh, and some neutral happenings, neither good nor bad. This has been one of the most eventful years of my life (which is pretty short, actually, so don't really try to go into it, if you'd bother to, that is). So, there was...a LOT.

2008, on the good hand, was EVENTFUL. Just how I like my life to be. Not much about school activities. No, this year it was all about friendship and fun. I had my first experience of reeeal drama queens, as we had all grown up and now people were turning more cunning (not me - I've always been quite innocent, much to my chagrin). Oh, and my first experience of getting into trouble at school. Trust me, this was my first. And trust my parents to blame it on my friends (then). It had something to do with a lot of gossip and spying and my Diary and all that, so no need to worry about it now - the story's tooooooo long. So I'd better keep you updated from 2009, that's one of my New Year Resolutions. What else? Yup, I withstood quite a bit of ragging and swearing, not that half of it wasn't my fault. That's also another story. But in the end, everything was alright. All's well that end's well, true enough. It ended well, but BORINGLY. I sincerely hope that the next year isn't as boring. There's a lot of stuff we could be doing, but we overlook the simpler things to go for doing something really "productive" which is a cause of boredom. Another is, like some people I've noticed have got a boring "atmosphere", I think you get me. Which I'm under sometimes. But it was a good year, not so bad. I'm sure everyone feels so, as there have been some national and international events affecting everyone. I quite liked this year, and I'm more than a little perturbed to be saying goodbye to it already. So, see you in 2009, Bye!!!

Hey I'm Back!

Guess I won't be posting regularly now...my schedule's become tighter and I'm running outta stuff to post. I just wrote a song, "Not in Your Clutches". I finished it today. Here it goes -

Fine, you can fix this and you can fix that

And you can get angry at the drop of a hat

You may be as sly as a mystery cat

But it don't seem you can give one a pat

Everybody's watching, I can't blame you

If you've got so much to do

But I don't know it you would

Treat me the same as you'd you

CHORUS:

So you're thinking that

I am bothered with

Something so much as what

You think you do

You keep playing this

Game you think I don't notice

I think it's time to dis

This thing you do

So I finally got to know

That I can't blame myself, just let it go

But enmity should never grow

Between the two of us, on high or low

I can't take all the

Pressure you pour on me

I think it's time you began to see...

That I am not bothered with

Something so much as what

You think you do

You keep playing this

Game you think I don't notice

I think it's time to dis

This thing you do

I still haven't come up with a proper tune for this song, but it's a song nonetheless. I haven't found a real good singer for this song as I just finished working on it. I was obliged to publish it early as I have tests starting tomorrow, and I won't be having time until the 17th. My birthday's on Thursday and I'm sad I gotta study for the toughest subject ever - Social Science. And I can't wait for The Tales of Beedle the Bard, releasing on December 4th!!! One more mouthful for Harry Potter fans. So I guess I'll be back soon - at the most on the 17th. Bye!!

PPLLLLEAAASE EXCUSE me for the long delay I wasn't able to come and post. I think I was a bit too lazy. By the way, Happy Diwali!! What I, and many others whom I know wanted was a noise-free Diwali this time. But I cannot imagine why these people like bursting all these sound crackers. All I burst yesterday was Flowerpots, Chakkars and Sparklers. There was nothing more. I know I'm contributing to the pollution levels, even being a generally eco-friendly person, but the prob is you never get to burst crackers anytime other than Diwali. But I hate noise. And those of you out there who do, too, please try to get the reason why people like noise. It is said that people who experience noise like this get hearing loss later in life. So please make the most of our Diwali celebs!! Hey for Harry Potter fans, and for fans of online games, please join Dumbledore's Army at http://www.joindumbledoresarmy.com/ . It's a place where you get to duel by imitating the wand movements with your mouse, with people all over the world. So have fun and a Happy Diwali again!

Hey!
I'm back! I was outta station - a place called Thirthahalli in Shimoga district in Karnataka. Had a great first day back. Lotta laughs!!!

Welcome!
I'm Sam and I plan to be posting quite regularly. Tests are over and it's now Breaktime. Plans include a novel coming up about a girl to whom something strange happens every Friday by my friend and me after the hols (October 13th).
