This Site I'm hooked on to.

Marc And Angel Hack Life is one of the many wonderful websites that StumbleUpon introduced me to, and, I'm hooked.
Not just self-help, and certainly not just hacking,  it covers topics so varied and diverse such as this, this and even this, and many many more.
Some days, when I intend to just Stumble, and not go directly to this site, it appears as a stumble link, and then, my whole day is wasted, no no!, spent, on this site. It's some great work.
It's addictive, and inspiring, makes you think, laugh, smile, nod in agreement, or gasp in surprise.
It is, in two words, a Must Visit.

A Poem On Poems


 Words, mere words
It seems to the uninitiated-
Un-rhyming, meaningless, useless.
Neither a haiku, nor a song,
A piece of the poet's thought-
Muddled.
Endless- like a strand of noodle
Baseless- like the scrawl of a two-year-old
Like the script of the Indus Valley Civilization-
Undecipherable.

But to the poet
It may be
A priceless piece of paper.
Scribbled in pencil,
Crossed out, erased.
Horizontal, then sliding, then wherever space permits-
Untidiness personified.

He pours in his heart, his soul.
It may be his mind, his all.



Who's That Girl?

Who's That Girl?
Know someone who completes work, minutes After the deadline, ALWAYS? If not, let me introduce myself. :) If you are what you eat, then I'd be an Ivy Gourd. Or, maybe a Capsicum... But never, ever an onion. Who wants to be an onion anyway? I don't want to make others cry :\ I love deep verses, witty quotes, new words, quirky info, and accidental alliterations (noticed one here?). Sometimes I talk in pairs, for e.g: rhyme and rhythm, songs and dance -all these complete me. I’m thirsty for knowledge, and highly forgetful (pair again). 5 hours ago, writing about me was daunting, but now I can’t stop. Whenever I remember that till now, I have no goal in life, I get scared but still can't care less. Yes, I am a bundle of contradictions with an opinionated mind. But 17 year olds can be awarded this much leniency, right?
