She is running
A hundred miles an hour in the wrong direction
She is trying
But the canyon’s ever widening
In the depths of her cold heart
So she sets out on another misadventure just to find
She’s another two years older
And she’s three more steps behind

Does anybody hear her? Can anybody see?
Or does anybody even knows she’s going down today
Under the shadow of our steeple
With all the lost and lonely people
Searching for the hope that’s tucked away in you and me
Does anybody hear her? Can anybody see?

She is yearning
For shelter and affection
That she never found at home
She is searching
For a hero to ride in
To ride in and save the day
And in walks her prince charming
And he knows just what to say
Momentary lapse of reason
And she gives herself away

If judgement looms under every steeple
If lofty glances from lofty people
Can’t see past her scarlet letter
And we never even met her

Above mentioned lines is the song called “Does anybody hear her?” by Casting Crowns. Was listening it few days back and the song put on a burden on me to reach out and help people, comfort them and talk to them… make them feel that they sure are worthliving!

Tuesday afternoon someone called me up from college, as I was taking a shower at that time I didn’t receive it. When I got back to my room I was really surprised to see the aforementioned missed call. I was wondering who called me up from college’s phone… that too in my airtel no. I have not given its number to many people so receiving one call from college was a big jhatka.

Tried calling back on the number but it was busy. Didn’t thought much about it and that was the end…

I woke up @ 9am on Wednesday morning and was enjoying a quite breakfast when a classmate of mine walked in my room. She was all dressed up, carrying her college bag as well as her trademark hotpot tiffin. She was like… what are you doing?? Why aren’t you ready for college?

And I was WTH???? no one told me about it.. then she went on to explain that one of the faculty took pains in calling each and every student of our class as the HOD had called us for a special purpose…

Before going on with the HOD part, I should tell you how she landed at the hostel. She missed her college bus so she came up all the way to the hostel to board the hostel gals bus.

I thanked God that her bus got missed and she came to the hostel. Otherwise I wouldn’t had known that we were expected at college..

Asa I reached our block, Tausif told me that he had called from college yesterday as there was no response in my bsnl number and that he was calling me up from the morning.. but as both the networks were down, he was not able to reach me.

Ohh and the HOD, that “meethi churi” called us to tell us that we had got poor sessionals this semester and to make up, we have to write assignments of all the 6 subjects and then he is going to consider if at all the sessional of that particular student should be increased or not… Pukka “Devil” kahin kaa..

He bought a Dell Vostro 1510 day before yesterday. The four things I noticed about it.. (i) Lid colour is black (ii) Is freakingly ugly (iii) has finger print reader (iv) it has Xp installed. I am sure its the 25-35k range wala Vostro and thus boasts of not so good configuration.

That was the rants for today… I have complete one subjects assignment. 5 more to go. Have to submit them on Saturday.

So you’ve got one of those fancy plans activated in your landline phone which lets you make call to the same operators landline and mobile phones free…

So what do you do when you are free and have absolutely nothing to do?? If you are a mother, you call your youngest daughter who stays in the hostel

Hehe.. the other day mom called me in the evening and we talked about the usual things, me, mom, mamu [maternal uncle], bro, sis, bhabhi [sister-in-law], nieces, badi mummy [maternal aunt] and the rest of the family members…

We discussed about the caterer who would be in-charge of the small birthday party dinner on occasion of Alicia’s 1st birthday. The dishes, sweets, list of invitees…

Whats coming in tv? Mom didn’t knew that God TV’s “Mission’s Week” was starting from today.. that meant that mom and mamu would watch more of TBN and FE TV. The various programs she watched in the Christian channels… Benny Hinn, Joel Osteen, Joyce Meyer, CBN India… I suggested her to watch Paula White, as I had loved her sermon on the saturday morning I was home.

Told her that we watched Hello and that it was not worth a watch and the book was sitting in my study table back at home and she was welcome to read it..

Yesterday I was talking with mam, the faculty who teaches us Electromagnetic Waves & Antenna as I was not able to understand some stuff in it and sought her help.

At that time some faculty sirs walked into the lab we were in and took their seats in the other table. They asked us if we had got the practical files checked or not and all…

Then the Faculty who took our Simulation Lab asked me if my name was Grace and I said yes. Then he said that my roommate had come to get her copy checked a while ago.. I was quick to correct him that it was ex-roomie, as my present roommate is a Super Junior. He went on to say that my ex-r told him that my copy was not fully complete and that I had written down the matter from her file and.. I got A++ grade where as she got B+, he told me he wanted to see my file..

As I was busy that time I told him I’d show him the file after a few mins.. A few mins passed by and then I went to the other lab to retrieve the file and showed it to him. He remembered quite well that what I had written was the best record of the whole semester and no one deserved the grade more than me. He also said that my writing was good and that I was graded well because of the computer efficiency too

Whereas my ex has the worst handwriting ever, her records were not complete, graphs not plotted etc…

I was so thankful to him but couldn’t keep myself feeling sorry for my ex-roomie for her “bitchy” behaviour. May God grant her the wisdom to check herself before speaking ill for others…
