Officially 2014 and 21: From the Shelves

Though this isn't the first post that I am putting up in 2014, I still feel that this is the first. If you have read my last post which came up a few days after the new year, you will know why. If you haven't, well, you should do it right now [link here] That post was meant to be updated in 2013, before the new year. So this is this official first post of the year. Happy New Year.

Before I go on, let me confess that this post says nothing, just plain nothing. I am in the college reading room and this look like the best thing I could do right now. It is now more than a week to the new year, the semester has started and yet I still haven't been able to collect myself up and get into my normal schedule. The simple thought that this is 2014, a new year, I am still so excited.

January the 4th was my birthday. Yo! I am 21, the perfect age, the magic number, the age where I am legal of doing anything, or whatever comes to your mind when I say I am 21. Since my birthday happened on a day when people are trying to get back to their normal life, after the long celebrated days of Christmas and New Year hiatus, I don't usually celebrate birthdays. Birthday celebration means cakes, candles, friends and so on. Being from a Christian family, we would have a prayer together, and a heavy dinner. This is that time of the year when all of my family will still be home, to celebrate Christmas together. In other days, my family is scattered, right from my childhood, and which goes on till now, with presence in five different places.

Since I am on a low budget, and the thought that it's rude to asked financial help from my parents at the beginning of a new year, I didn't planned of celebrating my birthday, just let the day pass and go. I do not know how but my brother knew about it, he gave me the green signal and said that I should not let this special day passed by unnoticed. To make the long story short, here are some pictures:

Happy 21st Birthday

Sharing the fun

I also made this short slideshow:

This is it. I am 21. Yiiiiiiiiiippppppppppppeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, the new semester has started and I am back to college. It has been more than a week to the new semester, yet the campus with its rustic building seem to not noticed that it is time for another hectic semester. From what I can see, I can tell at ease that many who went home for the holidays hasn't return. Being in Delhi and winter is a wonderful combination, it is way too cold to be inside the classroom in the early hours. No matter how many layers of clothes you had on, you will still be able to feel the chilly hands of winter. I can see many students standing in the sun, and not in their classroom. The weather of Delhi must have been too cold to them, or so I guess. Sigh.

It's 4 pm, it's holiday time. I should go home now.
