"Those were the best days of my life, that was the summer of 69" famous song by my favorite singer Bryan Adams. Hmm well, those were the days when I used to live my life, when I used to do what I felt like doing; I was the king of my LIFE. Those were the days when I used to say to myself, "dude the bed is so cozy and warm and its hell cold outside, so... I am on leave" and then I used to take myself back to my bed looking for a wonderful off from school. Though, the pain for leave lasted for an hour or so when my Dad used to play the music station through my ears and some off beat track 'Hips don’t lie' and I swear they never used to lie. Hmm those were the best days of my life....
Way continued and I entered the "18 till die" spirit. Bunking classes, going out for movie, dating girlfriendssssss and much more. Eating paani puri and all those mouth watering delicacies, I would say, were what that no one could stop me from. The best part was to escape from dinner by saying "mom I am not well” thus creating a room for tomorrows excuse. Those were the best days of my life!!!! My life was so beautiful, and I loved it.
The days passed and I entered a new phase of my life. The phase that made me feel ‘yes, I have grown up’ with my chest boasted for my achievement. College was a real fun, an institution that taught me many things in my life.
Running behind every lecturer for one or two marks to cross the danger line, submitting assignments in compensation to class bunks, and copying all the lab experiments in papers to pass the exam.. Whoosh, I am surprised from which part of my mind they use to come. All weird ideas but then bingo.. They really saved my life.
Talking with friends all night, driving on road when the whole world was asleep, listening to 'Yaaron' songs were what made each of us feel like we are the strongest bond that could ever be made and that we can never be separated by anything. But all this happened when I had world of my own, when I had the freedom to do what I felt like doing, no restrictions and no one on my head looking at my move.
The days passed by and I never realized that I am approaching a new world, a world full of restrictions, impositions and pressure. A world where there is no space for emotion, no space for friend and Time is what you will never get for yourself. The world where your life is governed by someone whom you have never seen, your life is full of deadlines and creaky faces that horrify you even in your dreams. Your sweet cozy bed waits for you all day and night but never find you there. You are left all alone with no one to share your feelings. And then suddenly you start searching and find your bond, there but not there.
The time flies but what remains is you, all alone in this never to live world. For me my two years, indeed my life has passed in this world. My two years are gone…..
