Hello, boys and girls! Submissions are over and Diwali is here. Both of which are good - the first more so than the second, but that's not really important. What is important is that I'm off to Malwan and Vengurla (beach towns) in Konkan for the next three-four days for some good ole-fashioned family fun. I've always enjoyed vacations more with mi familia than with mi amigos. I donno why that's the case - with most people it's the exact opposite, so I guess that just makes me that much more special.
The answer to last time's trivia is VHDL which stands for Visual Hardware Descriptive Language. I didn't expect anyone to get it and you all came good on my expectations. Lol. Today's trivia is far simpler:
Check out my userpic - from what year is it?
One Year Ago: I was studying my ass off for the very first oral of my life (Signals and Systems, which was definitely on the 26th of October. Diwali was late last year, and there was a match in Pune four days before my Digital Systems Pract)...But in the entry on October 22, I filled out this cool little survey that Mevans had posted. It really is interesting, funky stuff. Speaking of that oral, I fared horibly in it - scoring only 26 outta 50. Acourse, given my pathetic performance, I'd say that passing was more than enough.
So...things happened in the past few days that I've been waiting for, forever. It's hard to put words to those feelings. I don't usually find myself in such situations - totally overwhelmed. As I mentioned before, there's only 2.5 people in this world who could bring about that effect on me. Tanaya and I had our very first night together (which is far more difficult to achieve than you may have been led to believe) and I'll confirm once more that the best part of sleeping together is definitely waking up, and not anything comes before (there was no sex - the night somehow feels more pure without it). It's a truly special feeling, and one that everyone should experience at least once in their lives. It's worth whatever trouble you went through to get there, I promise. But there's a side effect, too - it becomes an addiction (after only one hit, even - that's some strong shit), you start feeling terribly alone when you realize that the moment is finished and that you're gonna have to wait for a damned long time for it to repeat. You can't wash it aside or forget about it because the images are too powerful and too dear to you. And by the time you can snap out, you realize that all that's left is you, your bed, your empty arms that fit oh-so-perfectly around the girl who's not there, and your loneliness. The positive is that you are capable of feeling this loneliness, this stinging desire to be back in the arms of the one you love - where you belong, which should tell you that you really do have something here, more so than so base a thing as your body's simple desires.
I wrote her a letter the other day (cause she's always saying how she's never had someone write her letters and she wants to know how it feels to have one)- hand-delivered it, even - trying to put into words how I felt that night. But it appears to not be having the right effect - she tells me she breaks down whenever she reads it. That's not what I want - it goes against all principles of the famed Smile Theory~. So YOU, quit ya crying; it's defeating the purpose.
That's that. Pics will be coming your way with the next entry, methinks. Keep it cool till then.
